•|, THURSDAY. JULY M. IM4. AUSTRIA, THE DOOMED VI7ITH tragic fatality, Austria, the doomed. Twenty years ago this week she precipitated the World war. Then she was an empire in decay. Now—after being dismembered by the Victors in the last war—she festers under a Fascist dictatorship. ,> Yesterdav’s confused events are not yet dear. Assassination of Chancellor Doilfuss had some of the earmarks of an inside Job. Several members of the government are under •uspicion of advance knowledge of the surprisingly easy putsch of 144 Nazis who captured the seat of government and held it until thev murdered the Fascist dictator. Fey, Dollfuss’ strong-arm second in command, although the apparent captive of the Nazis, negotiated with the Orman minister for their escape to Germany. Later they were caught. Despite the long struggle for power between the Doilfuss Fascists and the Austrian Nazis, there is little essential difference. The Nazis are Hitlerites who favor union of Austria with Germany. The Fascists recognize that such a Union is not expedient now because it is opposed by the rest of Europe, and therefore they have an alliance with Mussolini as protection against Hitler. Doilfuss, by his massacre of Socialists and Laborites last February, destroyed the one organized group loyal to the Austrian republic. Since then it has been largely a conflict of reactionary against reactionary. But the fact that Hitlers Germany has backed the Austrian Nazis transforms this from a local counter-revolution into a threat Os European war. This has worked the miracle of bringing Italy and France together, and drawn Great Britain and Russia to their side, against the common peril of a marching Germany. If Hitler moves as his German and Austrian Nazi followers expect him to do, allied intervention appears inevitable. Doubtless that would mean German defeat, but how much more it would mean in uncontrolled destruction and perhaps eventual European revolu- ; tlon no man knows. Fortunately for peace. Hitler at the last moment seems to be drawing back. Official Berlin announcements disavowing connection with the Nazi assassins in Vienna and recalling the German minister there who tried to protect them, indicate that Germany quickly may tun up a flag of neutrality. But even that is not apt to quiet the dangerous Austrian and international situation for long. THE HUNGRY HERDS ACROSS the parched plains of Kansas stagger hundreds of herds of hungry and thirsty cattle, on their way to the markets to be bought and butchered by the government. Behind each herd ride gnm-faced cowmen, Choking in the dust. Only last week some of these same cowmen refused to sell these same cattle to the government. Let the government look elsewhere for meat to feed hungry humans. Each cowman was a rugged individual. The government and the drought be damned! He would take care of his own. But now. the drought having proved even more severe than the government said it would. 200.000 head are being driven double-time to slaughter, and the cattlemen are fearful lest the government fail to take all. These thousands of emaciated cattle on stampede symbolize the conflict between society and the individual. So long as he can go his own way. the individual believes in the law of survival of the Attest and in the slogan, “Keep the government out of business.-” But when the crisis comes, threatening his own survival, the individual rushes to the government for protection. So it was with the bankers and the railroads and the corporations and the insurance companies and the city home owners. Under the blight of the depression, they all stampeded to government protection. Thus were created the RFC. the FDIC. the NRA and the HOLC. And. doubtless, as each new alphabetical agency was created, the Kansas cowman cursed the government for lending aid to the banks and business men and city fellow, who “wouldn't work if you gave them jobs.” And now the bankers and business men and city fellows curse the government for helping the cattlemen. ’ Quit spending our taxes." we say. Keep the government out of business. ’ Except when I need help in my business.” MAKING THINGS EASIER THE Indianapolis Times today received a communication from the Indianapolis , Junior Chamber of Commerce, thanking this newspaper "for helping make successful the ‘Donkey Baseball Games’ sponsored by the Chamber on July 16 to 20 ” Asa token of its appreciation, the Junior Chamber inclosed with its letter a check for SSO as a contribution to The Times’ “Clothe-a-<phi!d Fund." sponsored each year by this newspaper at the Christmas period. The Indianapolis Times, on behalf of next Christmas' needy children, thanks the Junior Chamber of Commerce. There was no necessity for the chamber to support this project; no necessity for the chamber to thank The ‘limes for its services. The Times is a public utility which operates for the service of its readers. That the chamber has seen fit to make the ftrst contribution of 1934 to the “Clothe-a-Child” fund U ample tribute to the spirit of Indiana pci is young business men.

I will send chills running through hundreds on hundreds of ragged Indianapolis boys and girls. It its attempt to bring warmth and Christmas cheer to those poor children who need clothes so badly. The Times feels that the suc- | cess of the drive depends upon the spirit of | its readers. The Indianapolis Junior Chamber of Commerce is doing more than making a contribution to the “Clothe-a-Child” fund. It is putting spirit into the men and women who help make the drive a success. Thank you. CRIME NEVER STOPS A/'ESTERDAY afternoon in Indianapolis they were burying John Dillinger, the outlaw who met the end all murderous desperadoes meet. Almost at the time Dillin*?er's funeral cortege was leaving the Maywood home of his sister, five gunmen held up an Indianapolis baking firm employe and escaped with SI,BOO. Time arter time, the bullets of officers of the law reach their mark, a warning to criminals all over the country. And yet they never learn. Indianapolis would do well to think twioe before making much ado over slain killers. Crime never stops. Public condemnation of criminals, also, never should stop. PROGRESS IN OIL I NTERIOR Secretary Harold Ickes in his role * of ml administrator points with pardonable pride to the first year's efforts by the federal government to stabilize one of the nation's most erratic industries. A year ago, he says, the eighteen oil-pro-ducing states were turning out 2,800,000 barrels of crude oil a day to fill a demand of only 2,400,000 barrels. Average prices during May and June of 1933 were around 32 cents a barrel. Price cutting, unemployment and general economic distress prevailed from oil well to gas station. On July 11, 1933, President Roosevelt issued an order prohibiting interstate shipments of “hot” or illegally produced oil, an NRA oil code of fair practices later was adopted and Mr. Ickes was named administrator. Production was allocated and brought down to 2,409,000 barrels a day for domestic wells, and imports and withdrawals from storage were restricted under the code. Mr. Ickes set up a petroleum labor policy board, an oil enforcement unit and an administrative board. Hours were shortened substantially. The controls covered not only the flush producing states of Texas, California and Oklahoma, but the 300,000-odd stripper wells of eastern and southern states. Whether solely because of these steps or not, cdhditions are better today. Some 750,000,000 barrels have been produced under the code, selling for approximately $750,000,000. Under the pre-code price they would have brought only $250,000,000. About 100,000 men have been taken back on petroleum pay rolls, adding about $150,000,000 annually to the nation’s buying power. Criticism has been directed toward the industry for raising gasoline prices. These raises of one-half to one cent a gallon have brought in some $160,000,000 annually, which is $10,000,000 more than increased pay rolls. However, the price still is well under •that of 1926. The Disney-Thomas oil bill, which failed, would have given the administration stronger control over interstate oil shipments and bulwarked its stabilization and conservation powers where state laws fell down. Mr. Ickes says he will urge the next congress to pass this measure. Rivalries still exist between independents and big oil companies, between regions and elements in the industry. Compliance is far from complete. There is plenty of disorder. But certainly progress has been made in the economic jungle of the oil fields. HISTORIC FINALE TAT HEN Navy Secretary Swanson recently ’ signed an order directing the scrapping of seventeen over-age destroyers, he closed the careers of some rather historic vessels. For among these seventeen obsolete warships were five which once played a spectacular role. They were the first American fignting ships to entei; the European war zone, and play an active part in it, after the United States declared war on Germany. This country had been in the war only a few weeks when that little destroyer flotilla reached an English port. They were the first visible, tangible sign of American participation in the conflict; as such, they bore significance infinitely greater than that of any other ships in our whole navy. And now they’re going out of existence—the destroyers Conygham, Porter, McDougal, WainwTight and Davis. Their passing is a reminder of a historic event. AID THE POLICE 'T'HE law fipally caught up with John Dillinger and the way in which it all happened is a sample of the kind of police work that eventually can reduce American crime to something like civilized proportions. It caught up with him, you see, because there existed one police organization—the force maintained by the department of justice —which is empowered to act anywhere in the country, which is not under the influence of local politicians and which never gets off the trail. The form of local self-government under which we live is an essential part of our democracy, and there doesn’t seem to be any very good reason for changing it materially. But it does play right into the hands of the crook. An outlaw is not confined, any longer, to his own city or county; indeed, he is not even confined to his own state. He can hold up an Indiana bank one day and swoop down on a filling station in Texas a week later; if his hideout in Wisconsin gets too hot for him he can run to another one in Pennsylvania. This puts the local police at such a tremendous disadvantage, that in many cases they are quite literally helpless. Yet that isn’t their only handicap. The local sheriff has to be a politician, chosen usually for his vote-getting ability and not for his skill as an officer of the law. The local police chief is a political appointee, and in nine cases out of ten he can t call his soul his own. If the gangster has any political “dragin his home town—and, if he is a big shot,-he

usually has—the cop goes Into action with one hand tied. Add these things together, and you find little reason to wonder why the Dillingers, the Pretty Boy Floyds, the Baby Face Nelsons and all the rest can cut such a wide swath But the department of Justice is something else again. It is beyond the reach of local politics. It pays no attention to state or city boundary lines. And it is so organized that when it gets on a trail it cam stay on it, for months or years if need be, until it gets its quarry. That is the sort of police work that is needed vitally. A few more achievements like those which the department has recorded in the past year, and this relentless, methodical and certain method of going after crooks will begin to instill in the hearts of underworldlings the kind of fear which is the best of all crime preventives. PROBLEM IN ‘HIGH’ FINANCE npHE ins and outs of high-pressure financial deals are things nobody but an expert can understand; but some of the aspects of their mystery are positively exasperating in their deep incomprehensibility. , For instance; the federal trade commission is told that three power companies in the southwest, tied up somewhere in the Insull chain, committed fantastic inflationary skullduggery back in the palmy days before the Insull crash. All told, it is charged, these firms inflated their values by $20,000,000, paying vast unearned stock dividends and boosting rates sky-high on the basis of fictitious valuations. Now what we untutored folk who stand on the outside can’t fathom is simply this: What was the point of all this phenagling, seeing that the Insull chain eventually foundered away? The public was taken for $20,000,000, on this particular deal—but it didn’t even profit the gang that did the taking. There’s some point to putting over a fast one, if you make money thereby; but when insiders wind up back of the eight ball too, what’s it all about? STILL GOING UP DESPITE the turbulence and waste of strikes, the country seems to be continuing to make progress on the long, uphill road back to prosperity. For instance: Carloadings of revenue freight for the week ending July 14 totaled 602,778 cars, a rise of 82,971 cars above the week before. Among the loadings to increase were those of grain, ore, coke, coal, livestock and miscellaneous freight. According to the census bureau, more than 31,000,000 cotton spindles were operating on June 30, compared with less than 26,000,000 in May. The wmlesale commodity price index rose in June to the highest level since April, 1931, farm products leading the way with a 6 per cent rise over the levels for May. Solid, encouraging indications, all of them. There’s a long and weary way to go, to be sure—but we do seem to be on our way in spite of everything. New Jersey fishermen report having seen sharks close to the beach. They didn’t specify whether the sharks were on land or in the water. Ivy Lee, greatest of press agents, got $25,000 a year to tell Germany what the American people thought of it, and all this time the newspapers have been telling it for nothing. The RFC reports a profit of more than $21,000,000 in the last year, and the politicians are wondering how they could have overlooked it. Detroit had a 63-hour stretch without a traffic fatality recently, and hopes that isn’t the lull before the storm. The files of the United States department of justice contains more than 4,400,000 fingerprints. But any home with a baby will show you more than that number on its walls.

Capital Capers BY GEORGE ABELL BOLIVIA has no access to the but that Bolivian diplomats make good deep sea fishermen is iluustrated by the case of Mr. Enrique de Lozada. ' Ennque went fishing off the coast of Delaware over the week-end. Tuesday he returned to his legation with a tale of tall fish that caused Minister Finot of Bolivia to open wide eyes. “I caught a shark one-half foot longer than myself,” he insisted. “I don’t believe it,” said Finot. But Lozada proved it. He carried the shark on the rear bumper of his car. It was slightly odorous, but very convincing. NOTE: Another distinction of Fisherman Lozada was being bitten by a flounder. Deep marks on his right hand prove conclusively that flounders have sharp teeth —a discovery which has astonished diplomatic circles. In all. Fisherman Lozada caught twenty-three fish (including the shark). tt tt K CAPABLE David Key, American diplomat attached to the information division of the state department, is an expert in German. The other day a young lady called. She wanted some information relating to revolutions. It seems she's writing a book about them (revolutions, not books). “Yes,” replied David, “I have here the exact authority you require. It is called 'Revolution der Welt—Ureschichte zwei jahr ausende Revolutionen und Burger Knege .” The would-be writer (who knows no German) fled. a a tt PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT now is in Hawaii, but that fact does not alter in the least the immutable rules of Washington protocol. Tuesday was the birthday of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I, emperor of Ethiopia, and it is customary to acknowledge the birthdays of rulers with appropriate White House salutations. The following wire was dispatched (via protocol experts) to Emperor Haile Selassie I in Addis Ababa, capital of Ethiopia: “On this your majesty’s birthday I send you cordial greetings and the assurances of my high regard and best wishes. (Signed) “FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT.” ana WASHINGTON friends of Leo Sack, energetic American minister to Costa Rica, learned of anew distinction for him. Leo has been awarded a diploma by the Costa Rican Red Cross, making him a “benefactor” member of that organization. This diploma was conferred in appreciation of the action of the United States in placing at the disposal of the Costa Rican Red Cr£s an airplane from the Panama Canal Zone to carry clothing to Salvadorean tornado sufferers.

(Timet readers are invited to express their views in these columns. Make your letters short, so all can have a chance. Ijimit them to ZHO words or less.) a a a FLAYS BETRAYERS OF DILLINGER By Kay. Before dashing off to Wawasee in a perhaps futile effort to find any errant breeze, I'd like to send in a humble opinion with regard to the Dillinger fiasco. Persons have raised their hands in holy horror of the attitude of supposed admiration for John Dillinger, particularly among the younger folk. It hasn’t been true admiration at all; only the natural opinion of sympathy arising from his having been hunted by an entire nation and his successful efforts in eluding the massed formation set out to capture him. Now it is over. I was riding with a boy friend last night and after discussing'the case, we both came to the conclusion that the woman or women who betrayed him are far lower than he. He wa.s openly and flagrantly an enemy of society. They, in the guise of friendly association, gave him up, much as Judas betrayed his Master. John Dillinger has paid his debt with his life. In my opinion, these parasites who meet gangsters on their own level, spend their money, live with them and turn turn on them, are as dangerous, or more so, than the desperadoes themselves. a a a DILLINGER, PRODUCT OF MODERN SOCIETY By Harold F. Hutchinson. The body of one John Dillinger is returned to dust as payment of a price asked of they 'who choose the path of crime and violence. He died a gangster, with his boots on, a victim of the law's leaden slugs and a malignant social order. What father is there, a son, who can withhold from his stricken father the right to love this wayward son at the time when society has turned thumbs down on a subject of its own making? John Dillinger was born of a woman, just as thousands of other sons are born. His mother probably prayed as other mothers do, w-hen his first cry brought his first breath of life. She prayed that he might be a good boy and a good man. just as your son's mother and my son's mother have prayed. He was born John Dillinger. There never was or will be another just like him in the universe. If such a thing could be. and the influence and environment, potent for good in other boys, could have been brought to bear on this son, then there would be no need of lead slugs, or lethal gas or the electric chair. Until there is something intelligent and individual in the remolding of lives that spurn the conventional laws of society, then you can not safely predict the exact path that your son or my son will follow through life, if life betrays them in a moment of weakness. an a BELIEVE DILLINGER TREATED UNFAIRLY By Four Dillinycr Sympathizers. We wish to express our opinion of the Dillinger case. We believe that John Dillinger was not given a fair play but since he has been shot, the least thing that could be done would be to show a little respect to his aged father, sister and brother by not publishing everything that has happened in theirs and Joimnie’s lifes. Every boy a:& girl make mistakes,

NOW FOR THE PHONE PROBE

Removes MacNider From ‘King Maker 1 Cast

By John Samulowitz. On July 5, there appeared on the front page of your paper an article headed, “Legion Czars Hit New Deal,” in which you referred to Phil Collins, Hanford MacNider and Mark McKee as “kingmakers.” I am not so well acquainted with Messrs. Collins and McKee, but when you undertake to attack a man like Mr. MacNider, to leave that unchallenged w-ould be cowardly on the part of any soldier. Let me tell you something: Mr. MacNider is a well-trained man in agriculture, is well * trained in banking. He was a true blue soldier and is a well-trained foreign diplomat. You further infer that they will hit at the New Deal. Let me ask you something: What soldier that is any American at all wouldn’t hit at the New Deal? Out of this New Deal, the soldier got the joker and has been constantly criticised by the present administration and particularly by your newspaper.

but blighting their lives does not help them to correct their errors. Everything that has been blamed cn Dillinger and his gang has not been done by them, we are sure. Understand, we do not think he should have been pardoned, out we do think he should have been given a fair chance to defend himself. a a a OPPOSES SHRINE TO DILLINGER By Creedo. The body and head of pitiable John Dillinger should be loaned confidentially to scientific medical examination and then secretly cremated and the ashes solemnly consigned to the depths of Lake Michigan. Thus may the world be spared the erection of a shrine. Let Indiana be spared anew disgrace. Let Crown Hill escape unwholesome notoriety. Let morbid youth be protected from a false flair to be a hero. a a a BRANDS NUDISM AS BAD AS MURDER By Curtis Hardesty. In answer to M. D. Pratt, who upholds nudism: Mr. Bailey is not exactly a higher critic. Neither is he a destructive critic. There are persons, Mr. Pratt, who would not lie, steal, murder, or commit one of the well known sins of the world, but are willing to clasp to their hearts a sin like nudism. Will this be gladly overlooked in the last day? Is not the sin of nudism, along with other sins that are constantly being put before our children every day at the swimming pools and upon the streets, even more dangerous than murder? Yes. When that couple was married at the world’s fair a fewr weeks ago and they were arrested and fined, they tried to get the judge to lower the fine. They said that the Scriptures upheld it, but the judge paid no attention to them. They said they were in a hurry to go to the Indiana nudist camp. Grand old Indiana! Do we as a people, as a state, and as a nation stand condemned or uncondemned before the world? Mr. Pratt, I know Mr. Bailey personally. I know him to be a citizen of the best repute, a God fearing

I can not understand wdiat you are driving at, but I can assure you one thing, that this is one time that you jumped on the wrong men when you jump on the nation’s defenders. Your newspaper is partly the cause of putting men that are partly or totally disabled from the war on the streets without any support whatsoever, which this nation and government owes them. Keep it up and see what it will get you. You may fool some of the citizens some of the time but you are not fooling them this time. If the soldiers of the country could promote Mr. MacNider to the presidency of the United States, it would be a real achievement; even greater than winning the World w'ar. I am a soldier, but I am not w r riting this because I have had any pension taken away from me, but I am writing you to let you know that we American soldiers are still Americans and do not like the principles you advocate in regard to soldiers.

man, and wants to raise his little family likewise. Sex, sex, sex. Go to our courts. Behold the breakdown of family life. There is law breaking on the largest scale known in history. It is one thing to raise a beautiful United States flag and another to be patriotic. Marching into the face of cannon is seldom done by a truly patriotic person. Patriotism is love of the people of a country and can be shown in a thousand ways, such as doing our best to suppress practices that are morally harmful, to our weaker brother, and as to perfect bodies, what does sex, being together in nudist camps prove? One word says it all, and that word is lust. BELIEVES IN DIVINE INSPIRATION OF BIBLE Bt E. H. A short time ago, Mr. Cummings expressed his views in the Message Center as to his nonbelief of the authenticity of the Bible. Different writers followed for and against his views. One writer up-, holds him, in part, but falls fiat when he denies the inspiration of the book by the Great Jehovah. II Peter 3:16 says all Scripture is given by inspiration of God. Also Acts 2:4, “and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak in other tongues as the spirit gave them utterance.” Also II Peter. 2:21, “for the prophecy came not in olden time, by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” “Surely, the word of God, the Bible, is a book of inspiration, given by the Almighty God to men, who put it in written form. Mr. Blacketor in The Times of July 21 casts unfavorable reflections upon the Bible in defense of Mr. Cummings. The Bible needs no defense by man. The Almighty expressed His will to man by inspiring righteous men to put it into writing that all men may know their duty to God and obey His commands

The last legislature attempted so force the cities which own public utilities, to pay a tax on this public property. Os course, the purpose of the act was to equalize the cost of service between private and publicly owned utilities. Wonder when the private swimming pool owners will insist on having public owned city swimming pools taxed, as the city at times gets admission fees from swimmers? Or when will fertilizer plants and hog feed producers ask that the city garbage reduction plant be taxed. It produces and sells its product. When will the private library lenders ask that public libraries be taxed, if they collect overdue book penalties? Why don’t the toll gate keepers of old arise and protect their old game of private roads? Wonder that the legislature did not attempt to tax the postoffloe, selling stamps for mailing private letters and parcel packages. The whole thing is as ridiculous as if cities charged counties for the use of bridges, because of use by suburbanites. Constitutional? Well, what is a constitution to a private utility anyway, except as a high board fence around its property? Or what cares a legislature for a constitutional bar of one governmental unit levying a tax on another governmental unit's property. It is almost to laugh if it were not so ridiculous to see the lawmakers register for campaign funds. HE’D ROUND I P MORE PUBLIC ENEMIES B A Reader. Well, I see they have captured Diilinger and our very smart political men are very proud. Now, if they would send those officers dow r n here and round up some of the smart public enemies running around here, Indianapolis would be a better place to live in.

SWIMMIN’

BY NELL MACE WOLFGANG “Old swimmin’ hole,” where is it— Like the one poet Riley told? A place the ' oys all seem to love It sounds s*. quaint and old! No place secluded for us now But to a cement pool— We will motor many miles To get our bodies cool. We don the best of bathing suit* In colors flaming gay— With rubber caps and permanent* This is the modem way! We take a dip until we re chilled Then stroll out in the sun— The band will play a jazzy tune Now that's the way it’s done! W’ho’s want a dirty swimmin’ hole Where no one saw you swimmin’? I’m sure the men folk never would Oh, well, you know the women!
