TRANSLATORS TOILING OVER LOVE LEnERS Ace Paleographists Find Napoleon’s Notes Difficult. B’s Fperiitl PARIS. Feb. B—One can almost feel the centuries-old walls shudder as a picked staff in the French Library works at American high speed pressure on the deciphering, transcribing and translating of the newly discovered letters of Napoleon to young Empress Mane Louise. For over a fortnight now—ever since the precious documents were handed over to Julian Cain, admin-istrator-general of the library, the building has been in a state of commotion. Many members of the staff have been working every day from 7 in the morning to midnight. "How enormous is the work involved in preparing the letters for publication m the United States and elsewhere can scarcely be imagined by people outside the library.” said Emile Leroy, secretary-general of that famous institution. when interviewed by an Indianapolis Times representative. M. Cam and M. Leroy took a leading part in the arduous negotiations which led to the purchase of the letters by the French government at the London sale for the sum of $75,000 Then came the purchase of the world rights by the United Feature Syndicate for publication in a select group of newspapers, including The Times exclusively in Indianapolis. And before they had had time to breathe the library staff was told that they must get on with the work of transcription and translation immediately. "A big task in the most favorable circumstances." said Mr. Leroy, "but when you consider that Napoleon's handwriting was probably the worst in the world, you can imagine the difficulties and complications of deciphering the more than 300 letters. “People like us, dealing in musty manuscripts, are accustomed to take our time over things, and although. In common with the whole world of letters we were literally agog with excitement at the 'find'—certainly the most important historical event of its kind in a century—we would have preferred to go through the

"However, we had to get down to hard work right away. A special staff of paleographists, including some of the most eminent handwriting experts available, had to be organized under the direction of M. Philippe Lauer, one of the best known paleographists in France. “Napoleon's letters have given them a headache. I am afraid. Some of the Emperor’s scrawls seemed quite illegible Consultations, speculations, cogitations over a single sentence would sometimes kill a whole day. In a few rare cases there is still a difference of opinion as to the reading of a phrase, but otherwise the experts are now agreed on the reading of the texts. “It has been a most exciting task. The letters have revealed a number of historical errors, notably in regard to the events of Napoleon's campaigns. These will provide subjects for plenty of future controversy.” (Copyright. 1935 bv United Feature Syndicate. Inc.i

WIDOW'S ‘GIRL FRIEND' FREED IN DEATH QUIZ 'Mysterious Blond Beauty,’ Chum of Slain Man, Now Sought. By United Press CHICAGO, Feb. B.—Melodrama took a tight grip today on the minds of detectives investigating the “passion” murder last Sunday of Louis K. Straub, whose body was found riddled with bullets in a basement closet of the fashionable Saddle and Cycle Club. Police teletypes ordered a search for "a mysterious blond" who frequently kept rendezvous with the dapper clerk and bartender in the deserted clubhouse after he had seen the last guests out. Developments yesterday entirely absolved Mrs. Ellen (Billy) Edlin. close friend of Straub's emotional and attractive widow, of suspicion. Mrs. Edlin surrendered to state’s attorneys. A cab driver drove an excited young woman to the entrance of the Saddle and Cycle Club grounds Sunday morning and approximately the time Straub was killed, and 15 minutes later drove her to a drug store “to get a drink,” said Mrs. Edlin was not the woman. Clerks in the pharmacy agreed with him. Mrs. Edlin indignantly gave Mrs. Straub the lie in regard to the widow’s frank statements that the two were bound by an erotically intense affection, although she said their friendship was in no way impaired by Straub’s death. The “mysterious blond” was formulated from statements of Gus Schwartz, dour 54-year-old watchman at the club who has been held since the murder,, and Kenneth Colling, the cab driver. Schwartz said Straub often entertained women in the club after it was closed for the night and Colling's information led to suspicion that one of them killed him. Colling said the woman he took to the club Sunday was “blond, beautiful and young, and extremely well dressed.” Mrs. Straub, former show girl, whom Straub married nine years ago, gained freedom yesterday on a writ of habeas corpus after four days of almost continual interrogation.

KIoIGFISn 100 AGILE, SLIPS HOOK CAST BY PROGRESSIVE GROUP
Last Sunday 17 National Progressive Party members massed at the English Hotel, heard themselves described by one of their members as the largest political party in the United States, and nominated Senator Huey P. Long as their presidential candidate. Eyebrows arched. The Indianapolis Times wired Nominee Long, who then was attempting to prevent the theft of the Louisiana Statehouse at Baton Rouge. There was no answer. Later The Times correspondent at Washington contacted the nominee. The reply: "Kingfish too smart to be hooked. Never heard of the nomination. Secretary says he remembers ‘some correspondence from organization by the name.’ Couldn't recall details. Huey hadn't seen it!” SUPPORT GAINED FOR SALES TAX Gross Retail Income Cut Looms If Program Is to Be Adopted. (Continued From Page One) sales tax plus the cut in the retailers’ levy is reported to be enactment of a 3 per cent sales tax with the retailer absorbing 1 per cent and j passing the other 2 per cent on to the consumer. The gross income collections on the retail tax, cut from 1 to V* of 1 per cent, would amount to approximately $1,500,000 on retail sales. However, the 2 per cent sales tax would triple the $4,500,000 that would be lost. There have been suggestions that if such a plan is put through, the grass income tax law could be amended to earmark its revenue for the social security program. Old Age Pensions Problem The sales tax revenue then could be devoted almost entirely to state aid for schools, thereby increasing the $8,095,217 contributions made last year to the schools by the gross income tax. Old age pensions arc among the most pressing of the administration’s finance problems, because if Indiana expects to match the maximum proposals in the Federal plan, it must raise an amount estimated variously at from $5,000,000 to $6,000.000. . This would be in addition to the $1,100,000 the state and several counties now jointly are spending on the dependent aged. The maximum federal proposal would entail the payment of sls by the state and counties and a like amount by the Federal government to make up a S3O a month pension. Indiana now is paying an average pension of only $6.13 a month. Warning Is Sounded Any pension arrangement decided upon, and S2O a month is reported to have been fixed tentatively, probably would not become effective until 1936. If it were made effectively immediately, the counties could not share the burden with the state because local budgets have not been fixed. The state budget committee, in its report yesterday, sounded an ominous note when it said: “In view of the unusal needs of operating the state government during the next biennial period, as is shown herein, your committee would recommend that if the provision for raising revenue for the general fund now in force is not increased, new revenue laws must be enacted to produce sufficient revenue to meet the appropriation or laws enacted to empower the department of treasury to make temporary -loans in such sums as will be needed until revenue can be procured” Comparison of probable expenditures and estimated income reveals a probable budget defiqit of slightly more than $700,000. This deficit looms in spite of the fact that an expected increase of $1,000,000 in income tax collections has been taken into account in estimating the probable income. CITY LOANED $50,000 AT RECORD LOW RATE Less Than 1 Per Cent to Be Paid for Sanitary District Advance. Operating expenses of the city sanitary department will be cared for with a $50,000 loan, obtained at an interest rate of seven-eighths of 1 per cent. Walter C. Boetcher, city controller, said today the rate is the lowest in the financial history of Indianapolis. The loan was taken on a joint bid by the Indiana Trust Cos. and the National Bank.
