Perennial Socialist Candidate Runs on 1913 Platform —Still Good, He Thinks

BY LOWELL B. NI'SSBALM Tim** City Editor JUST thirty years ago. back in 1304. George J- Lehnert, then a callow youth of 13. was the Socialist candidate for mayor of Indianapolis. He hardly expected to be elected —and he wasn't. But. far from being discouraged, he continued as an active party worker, sought, unsuccessfully, election to the state senate in 1906 and election as county commissioner in 1912. Then, in 1913. he again made the race for mayor; once more without success. Today. Mr. Lehnert again is his party's nominee for mayor, and he is making this year's race for office on the same platform he used back in 1913. a copy of which he keeps among his souvenirs. a 0 a ONE of the principal planks in the old platform was municipal ownership of all public utilities and thpir operation at cost. These included gas. water, telephone, electric lights and street railway svsfem, the latter with

DEATH OF DILLINGER SHOWS LAW DEFECT, SAY BRITISH PAPERS

lly t nitrii Press LONDON, July 24.—British commentators today saw in the manner of John Dillinger’s death a serious defect in the American criminal judicial system—that it was necessary to ambush him in a public street and shoot him without trial. It was agreed that his death was a good thing, and newspapers in stories w ? hich crowded other news from first pages called him a monster and a wild animal. Under the surface of comments w-as the feeling that for the traditional majesty of the law there was substituted the “on the spot” method of removing a dangerous man. The News Chronicle, in an editorial captioned “America's Monster,” criticised the American system of imposing long sentences for first offenses.

AUSTRIAN NAZIS DEFY DOLLFUSS, WAR ONPRIESTS Pastors to Die, Is Warning, If Party Henchmen Are Hanged. Byj United Press VIENNNA, July 24.—Austrian Nazis have determined to kidnap Roman Catholic priests as soon as any Nazi terrorists are sentenced to death, and kill their hostages if the Nazis are hanged, a party spokesman told the United Press today. A dozen Nazis are awaiting trial under the government's new emergency laws, prescribing the death penalty for terrorism. None has been hanged. “The priests led Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss in his campaign against the Nazis,” the spokesman said, “and they must pay the price for his betrayal of Germanic Austria. “The moment any Nazi is sentenced to death w r e shall capture and hold as hostages several priests from various parts of the country. “These will be killed the moment a Nazi hangs.” Chancellor Dollfuss Is a devout Roman Catholic. His ideas of government are decisively influenced by his religious views. After months of unsuccessful efforts to end Nani dynamitings, the chancellor on July 19 prescribed the death penalty for any Nazi convicted of terroristic acts. None knows the strength of the Nazi movement in Austria. Though thousands of Nazis have fled to Germany, where they have been given the protection of the German government, unnumbered thousands remain.”
