Charles Ettinger. chief deputy clerk in charge of elections, will preside at the meeting and issue final orders. Meanwhile, Republican leaders continued their check of the county registrations lists following reports from precinct workers that many Republican voters had reported their names are not on the lists. E B. Wetter and Howard Meadors remained at the election bufqau in Marion county courthouse to continue the Republican examination of the lists. Mr. Wetter declared their examination thus far had disclosed no irregularities. Names omitted from the lists, Mr. Wetter asserted, seemingly were not registered due to the fault of the voter. Voters either neglected to register or did not take the trouble to file transfers after changing their residences, he admitted. 246,045 Qualified to Vote Party leaders estimated that not more than 75 or 80 per cent of the voters registered would cast their ballots Tuesday. A total of 246.045 persons have qualified to vote, it was announced at the election bureau. This is an all-nme record. At the last elec- | tion 212 000 persons voted. According to Mr. Ettinger, voting machines will be used in every voting precinct in the county. Paper ballots also will be handed to all voters who are entitled to cast ballots for township officials and school board members. Both major parties have designated checkers who will report at the voting booths Tuesday to watch for any attempt at election frauds. Names of the checkers and of election inspectors have been guarded closely. Much Confusion Anticipated It is not necessary for voters to have a registration card in their possession when they go to vote. Mr. Ettinger pointed out. The registration cards that were issued are merely courtesy cards, he said. Ofiirial lists of registered voters will be delivered to every precinct board election morning, Mr. Ettinger said. These lists will be examined by the precinct officials before voters are permitted to enter the boths. it was pointed out. On this account. any person who has lost a courtesy card need not remain away from the polls. Much confusion Is anticipated from voters who have failed to register. A staff of deputy election commissioners will remain at the election bureau Tuesday for the purpose of settling disputes over interpretation of the law. As with the names of election inspectors, the names of deputy commissioners have not been made public. TECH SENIOR CLASS TO GIVE PLAY NOV. 23 Stage Make-l'p Staff Studies Characters.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
U, $. IS UNDER ‘dictatorship: LECTURER SAYS Rule Benevolent, However, World Expert Here for Address Says. The United States is under a dictatorship today in the opinion of Charles C. Batchelder, amiable and interesting authority on world affairs, who delivered the third Town Hall lecture at the Columbia Club today, but Mr. Batchelder finds no reason for alarm in the situation. His talk dealt with the question: ‘ Shall Our Government Be a Democracy or a Dictatorship?” Mr. Batchelder will leave in January on his fifteenth trip around the world. A Harvard graduate, he has turned Philippine headhunters from their national pastime to baseball and tugs-of-war; has taught government in three large universities and has penetrated to Himalayan territories where women boast seven husbands each and complete ownership of all property. Mr. Batchelder has been secretary of the interior in the Philippines. United States commercial attache in China, with headquarters in fascinating Peiping: senior United States trade commissioner in India, chiei of the censorship bureau during the World war and chief of the commerce department’s far eastern division. Roosevelt Is Trusted “We in the United States today have a dictatorship, although we don't realize it,” Mr. Batchelder declared. ‘‘The people have such confidence in President Roosevelt that they have given him dictatorial powers such as they granted Lincoln and Wilson in similar emergencies.” The dictatorhip in the United States —and Mr. Batchelder is not alarmed by it in the least—differs from those in Europe, he finds. Here the dictatorship has been adapted cleverly to American institutions and ideals, he said. In Europe, said Mr. Batchelder, the life of a dictatorship is for life of the dictator. In the United States the dictator’s powers run out by limination or act of congress. ‘‘For 2,000 years,” said Mr. Batchelder, ‘‘republics have become dictatorships in times of stress. Necessary economic and social changes in emergencies can be made only by overcoming, by force, those unwilling to accept the necessary changes. Congress Found Wanting ‘‘The world is going through the greatest revolution in history. Europe realizes this fact clearly, but we do not because it has come upon us so gradually that we adjust ourselves to it. Five years ago there w’ould have been universal protest against the governmental control of business which we now accept without objection.” Congress, it is Mr. Batchelder’s belief, never coulji decide complex questions of policy because it represents too many points of view. Congress, also, he said, is too afraid of organized minorities like the American Legion.

Labor Truce Faces Two Important Tests Today Unions’ Reaction to Auto Code Extension and Decisions of A. & P. Strike Rivals Are Due. By United Press WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.—President Roosevelt's truce between capital and labor faced two important tests today with chances apparently good that it would win both decisions.
The tests were labor’s reaction to renewal of the unchanged automobile code and the decision of unions and the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company on the proposed Clevelad grocery truce. The sevrn Cleveland unions involved in the grocery fight forwarded their decision on the truce to the national labor relations board. It was kept secret but belief persisted here that the response was favorable. Decision by the A. & P. was due shortly, possibly today. Early indications had been that it also would vote for peace and resumption of operations. The company had planned to abandon its Cleveland business in the face of a strike by the seven unions. While not overly enthusiastic at failure of the administration to open the automobile code for possible amendments desired by labor, union opinion was expected to go along with the President in view of his intention to investigate conditions thoroughly prior to expiration date of the renewed code, Feb. 1. Francis Dillon, chief of the American Federation of Labor automobile union at Detroit promised a statement on the situation today. President William Green of the federation said labor’s position was unchanged on the fight for revision of the code. He expressed surprise

STATE PROPERTY TAX TO BE CUT $7,334,070 Announcement Made by Secretary of Indiapa Board. Indiana taxpayers today were assured of a large decrease in property taxes for 1935 by Anderson Ketchum, state tax board secretary, who revealed that the property tax total will be approximately $7,334,070 less next year than the total paid in 1934. Mr. Ketchum announced receipt of a letter from Harry Miesse, Indiana Taxpayers’ Association secretary, in which Mr. Miesse gave the amount of reduction already made and indicated the possibility of further reductions of $500,000.

that the code had not been opened for hearing at the present time. He refused to indicate what action labor would take. The President's proposal to confer next week with automobile manufacturers and labor leaders prior to initiating a government study of labor conditions in the industry generally was interpreted as emphasizing control the White House will exercise in future over the NRA code structure. The suggestion for a conference was made in letters from the President to Alvan Macauley, president of National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, and William Green, American Federation of Labor head, published simultaneously with an executive order extending the auto code ninety days without change. The A. F. of L., through NRA labor advisory board, had demanded of the recovery board a public hearing of their proposed code changes to reduce working hours, increase wages, and eliminate the “merit” clause. The industry, although desiring some code amendments itself, was strenuously opposed to reopening the code, and asked that it be extended in present form.

Use of the separate school ballot and of the official blue pencil in ,voting for school commissioners is being emphasized by speakers and workers for the CITIZENS SCHOOL COMMITTEE during the closing days of the campaign. Attention also is being called to the fact that the separate school ballot does not bear the names of any parties, slates or tickets and that in order to vote the CITIZENS SCHOOL TICKET the voter must pick out the names of the five candidates from the list of fifteen names appearing on the ballot. The qualifications of the CITIZENS SCHOOL COMMITTEE candidates were stressed by Godfrey Yaeger, Indianapolis attorney, in a speech last night at 1439 South Alabama street. “The CITIZENS SCHOOL TICKET." declared Mr. Yaeger, “as represented by Mr. Boyd, Mrs. Ridge. Mr. Wilde, Mr. Buchanan and Mr, White, is one of the best selections of citizens that could be made, and we well may entrust such a group with the education of our youth. “Every candidate on the CITIZENS SCHOOL COMMITTEE TICKET is a community leader whose honesty and integrity. I believe, never have been questioned—nor will they ever be questioned if these people are elected to the school board. Each of them has the courage of his or her convictions and is ready to give and to sacrifice whatever may be necessary to place IndiarKLpolis and our educational system again in the rank they once occupied. “We need not worry in the least about their sound judgment and their wise discretion in disposing of any problem which m3y present itself during their administration.” Three meetings and two radio broadcasts are on the CITIZENS SCHOOL COMMITTEE schedule for tomorrow. Teas will be held at the homes of Mrs. Elnora Henderson, 341 West Twenty-fifth street, and Mrs. J. H. Lott, 808 North California street, at which some of the candidates will be guests of honor. Other candidates will attend a meeting at 2005 Highland place, at which W. W. Hyde will have charge. The radio broadcasts include a talk over WFBM at 6:30 p. m. tomorrow by John L. Niblack. managing director for the CITIZENS COMMITTEE, and another at 9:30 by Albert Stump over the same station. ORIGINAL ‘ALtCE’ OF ‘WONDERLAND’ DYING Title Character of Book Was English Woman.
