CITY FIREMEN, POLICE JOIN IN CLEANUP DRIVE Home-to-Home Inspection Gets Under Way With Lynch in Charge. The second day of the annual spring Ciean-up. Paint-up campaign, sponsored by the Indianapolis Junior Chamber of Commerce, opened today with a home-to-hnme inspection of fire hazards by 40 city firemen under direction of Capt. Bernard A. Lynch, chief of the fire prevention division. Stores and vacant buildings as well as residences will be inspected and reported on. Fire hazards in attics, basements, outbuildings and other rubbish depositories will receive special attention of the inspectors. Owners will be advised on the best methods of clearing out these danger spots from the standpoint of beauty as well as safety. Members of the police department, while not operating in crews, have orders to report any unsightly or dangerous places they may see in the regular course of duty. The campaign will continue until April 27. The sponsors hope that work will not stop with the filling of the trash can and raking of rubbish but will extend to much-needed painting and repair activities on thousands of neglected properties. A parade Saturday called public attention to opening of the campaign. Boy Scouts bearing mops and brooms, the Fireman's band, the Crispus Attueks High School band and the Newsboys’ band and the De Molay drill team were among the marchers.

BARKLEY CALLS OLD AGE, LONG PLANSmURD’ Senator’s Stinging Attack Is Viewed as ‘Keynote’ of Administration. B</ l nitfd Prt*n WASHINGTON, April 15,-The Townsend old-age pension and Senator Huey Long "share-our-wealth” plans were held ridiculous “delusions" today by Senator Alben W. Barkley (D., Ky.). Some Democrats saw last night’s radio address by Senator Barkley, 1932 Democratic national convention keynote speaker, as an Administration “keynote" attack on the Townsend and Long plans. Senator Barkley assailed both plans as “fantastic nostrume,” and as a “sort of twin assortment of Kickapoo Indian salve, guaranteed to cure everything from which the body, the spirit and mind or the imagination can suffer.’’ Os Dr. Townsend’s “new discovery.” he said: “No greater delusion has been fabricated out of the heart-rending extremities through which we have been passing than this Townsend prescription for the attainment of mythical millions.” Disclaiming any disposition to indulge in personal abuse or vituperation against Long, Senator Barkley said: “I abhor his unfairness and his apparent indifference to accurate statements when he is discussing others, and especially his grotesque references to and his malicious misrepresentations of the President of the United States.” Dr. Townsend's “absurd proposal” to give every person over 60 years of age S2OO monthly pension would cost $24,000,000,000 a year if only 10,000.000 of the 11,000.000 persons over that age drew pensions, he said. In the Townsend plan “Dives and Lazarus. Croesus and the beggar at the well will find a common level,” he said. Every dollar in circulation, which turned over 34 times in 1934, would turn over 528 times under the Townsend plan, he estimated. “In other words,” he said, “each dollar would be so busy turning over each day of the year that every pocket in America would look like a bed of silvery ants in the hot seasons of summer.”

OUR po6toffice authorities are now making a comprehensive survey of air routes and air conditions. looking forward to the transportation of air mail to Europe, to Hawaii and to Alaska. From present indications it appears that within the next three years Congress will be asked for an appropriation to establish these transoceanic services. ... At the same time, rumors are floating around in air circles about negotiations that are supposed to be underway between England and Denmark toward establishing a British air base in Iceland. Denmark controls Iceland and an air base on this island may be an outstanding factor in setting up a North Atlantic route. The Germans and French are operating on schedule —and very successfully, too—the transportation of air mail across the South Atlantic. Air bases are likewise being sought in Greenland. Newfoundland, the Bermudas, and the Azores . . . and it begins to look as if the North

Rinehart, former vice president of the Wathington Bank and Trust Cos. from his home in Louisville. Mr. Rinehart Saturday was charged, by affidavit, with two other former bankers, Sol S. Meyer and Dick Miller, with embezzlement of deposits. The affidavits were presented in Criminal Court by Prosecutor Herbert M. Spencer. Mr. Miller, former president of the defunct City Trust Cos., has made the $15,000 bond required in connection with the charge. Claude H. Crowder, 3120 N. Dele • ware-st, signed Mr. Miller’s bond. Attorneys for Mr. Meyer, former president of the Meyer-Kiser Bank, were expected to inform him of the Indianapolis charges at his home in Miami, Fla. He was expected to return to this city for arraignment.
Atlantic air route, between Europe and America, will soon take shape. One cant discuss transoceanic service without commenting on the pioneer transpacific plans of PanAmerican Airways. The speciallybuilt Martin Clipper ship has already demonstrated it is capaole of flying over the proposed Pacific route . . . from Alameda. Cal., to Canton, China, by wav of the Ha wans and other islands. Within three or four months, it seems assured that pasesngers and mail will be crosing the Pacific in about 70 hours . . . instead of in 15 or 20 days. It takes no courage to predict that in a very few years, travelers will find that the fastest way to cross the oceans is to go by air. And they will be able to even circle the globe by that method. QUESTION: Explain a wind tunnel. A wind tunnel is a tube-shaped.
