MEXICO, CHINA PROTEST U. S. SILVER BUYING Federal Financial Experts Agitated by World-Wide Speculation. NATIONS FACE DISASTER Treasury Officials Study Methods to Stabilize Chaotic Markets. By L'nitnl Pri * WASHINGTON, April 27.—Obviously agitated bv the world-wide speculation in silver touched off by the Administration's silver policies, government financial experts today gave their undivided attention to moves to bring order to chaotic world markets. The rapidly rising market price of silver, propelled upward by the government's increased price to domestice producers, was having near disastrous effects in such silver countries as Mexico and China. The Mexican government last night called in all silver coins in circulation which will be replaced with currency and copper coins. The silver market, had passed the point where it would be profitable to melt silver pesos into bullion. China Lodges Protest Protests from Chinese governmental and financial leaders continued. Mr. Morgenthau called Senator Pat McCarran <D., Nev.), one oi the leaders of the senatorial sliver bloc, into conference. Secretary Morgenthau later announced that the Treasury would make no change in its silver price over the week-end. Mr. Morgenthau’s statement was interpreted as meaning that the Treasury was still considering anew course of action with respect to silver and that the present status quo would be maintained until a definite policy was determined. Prices rose in world markets yesterday and in New York reached 81 cents an ounce. The London price was 78 ’s cents. The Treasury now pays 77.57 cents an ounce to domestic producers and heretofore has kept the domestic price a little higher than the world price. Mr. Morgenthau was-Ainderstood to be considering and discussing three alternatives. These comprised: (1) a possible pegging of the newly mined silver price at $1.29 an ounce; (2) a continuation of the present policy of a slight subsidy to domestic miners over the current 81-cent world price; (3) and a scrapping of the subsidy plan and the payment to domestic producers of the price paid by the government for silver in the world markets. Some observers believed the world silver markets had gotten out of the hands of the United States government and that foreign speculators had purchased large silver stocks and were holding them for the $1.29 an ounce price set as the objective of the United States government’s silver purchase program.
Mexico Action Drastic P'j l nitf'l Press MEXICO CITY. April 27.—Mexico today recalled all silver from circulation to meet the threat of a national crisis caused by the American silver buying policy. Provision was made for a currency of paper and copper exclusively. A national silver reserve will be built up to back the paper peso. Export of coins or bullion obtained by melting coins was forbidden. AU banks were closed today while the government worked out details of its plans. It was indicated shat the peso would be pegged at about its recent normal level with the dollar—3.6o pesos to sl, or 27.78 cents a peso. Roberto Lopez, chief assistant to Secretary of Treasury Narciso Bassols. sped to Washington by airplane, accompanied by Thomas H. Lockett. commercial attache of the American legation, to consult United States Treasury officials regarding the threatened crisis. They were expected to arri'e tomorrow. MORGENTHAU’S PET FEARED -DOG-NAPPED’ Gold Standard. New Deal Mascot. Object of Secret Service Hunt. Bu l nited Pres* WASHINGTON. April 27—Chief William H. Moran of the United States Secret Service expressed tne opinion today that Gold Standard, the New Deal s famous mascot, may have been dog-napped. Although all Washington has been aroused over disappearance of the coc-.er spaniel, pet of Henry Morgenthau Jr., Secretary of the Treasury, not a trace of Gold Standard has been revealed. "It’s just one of two things.” said Mr. Moran today. "Either spring fever lured him away or he has been dog-napped.” The pet—called Timmie by Mr. Morgenthau, but nicknamed Gold Standard by reporters—vanished at noon yesterday. RUCKER ASKS PARLEY Bank Prober Invites Spencer to Confer on Investigations. Prosecutor Herbert M. Spencer today said that he will confer next week with Alvah J.

New Suspect in Nation's Only Unsolved Aduction Is Tucson Clerk. JURY TO HEAR EVIDENCE Federal Agents to Demand Indictment at Session on Monday. (Conyright. 1935. bv United Press) TUCSON. Ariz., April 27.—The June Robles kidnap case moved a step nearer solution this afternoon when it was learned the government’s "G” men had definitely identified the writer of the ransom notes. The United Press learned that the new r suspect in the Robles case —the nation's only unsolved kidnaping—is a clerk employed in Tucson. Identification of the ransom note writer was made through comparison of printing on an application blank filled out by the clerk, prior to the kidnaping, with the ransom notes. Photostatic Copies Made Department of Justice agents have made photostatic copies of the printing and will present them to the Federal grand jury which will meet here Monday to hear new evidence in the year-old kidnaping case, the United Press informant said. Federal agents declined to discuss the reported identification, but reports have been circulated widely that startling new evidence has been gathered by the Department of Justice, ready for presentation to the grand jury. The new disclosure was revealed to the United Press by a government official not connected with the Department of Justice. He said Federal agents definitely linked the suspect with the crime after making a microscopic examination of the tw r o specimens of handwriting. Only One Arrest Only one arrest has been made in the Robles case since the child, granddaughter of a wealthy Arizona cattleman, was abducted while walking home from school. Oscar Robson. Tucson “playboy” and former night club owner, was taken into custody shortly after the child was found in a desert “torture prison,” and was held under SIOO,OOO bond. Robson's bond later was reduced to SSOOO and a grand jury summoned to hear evidence against the suspect, halted its inquiry and ordered agents to continue their invesUgation. The Robles girl was found 19 days after she was kidnaped. A letter, mailed in Chicago, directed searchers to her desert prison. The letter was mailed after the kidnapers. who demanded $15,000 ransom, failed to make ransom contracts with her parents.

LOTTERY SLIPS BOUGHT ON SLY IN (MOUSE •Phantom Salesmen’ Plying Trade Regularly, Says Irate Official. Within a few steps of the Marion County Criminal Court in the courthouse walk phantoms who, it is said, make weekly collection on lotteries from courthouse attaches. Some say it is a blond phantom who sidles into offices with notebook in hand and collects a weekly 50 cents or dollar for the lottery ticket. Others with side-of-the-mouth words declare it is a dusky phantom who has forsworn the galloping dominoes for a more secure job of collecting on lottery tickets. But one courthouse official is irate over the weekly parade and orates about it. “I’ve got troubles of my own without using my name, but I want to say I think it’s a disgrace the way officers of the law say they have such a hard time to find these lottery places and sellers. Lottery Suspects Seized “I’ve never been approached, but I know they’ve been coming through here. The statehouse is just as bad. Young women working on small salaries are paying out weekly to them without a chance to win. “And then they say they can’t find them when they are under their very noses,” and the official shook his head sadly. Police raids to stamp out lotteries were continued with the arrest yesterday of Ralph Coyle, Negro, 23, of 1039 Hosbrook-st., and his brother, Leslie Coyle, on lottery counts. Police said they found 1000 lottery slips in Coyle's possession. Trial of the two men has been set for May 1. Liquor Seized in Raids Ray Partlow, 29 W.

Pupil Strike Looming at Southport Trustee Hohlt Instructs All Teachers to File Application. Threat of a school strike loomed on the Southport High School horizon today after Leonard A. Hohlt, Perry Township trustee, instructed all present teachers in the school to file formal applications for next year’s teaching positions. This revelation followed swiftly on the heels of a mass parent's meeting held at the school Thursday night at which Mr. Hohlt indicated that he might demote Principal R. A. Addington and replace him with Glenn Curtis of Martinsville, as principal. It was said that the school strike might begin Monday, and it was said, too, that there will be a mass meeting of all protestors Monday night in the auditorium for the purpose of organizing. Meanwhile, it was impossible to locate Mr. Curtis for a statement on his intentions. Opponents of Mr. Hohlt say he is attempting to bring a state basketball championship to Southport by hiring Mr. Curtis, a famous basketball coach and J. P. (Hunk) Francis, ousted Jeffersonville athletic mentor.

FILM SHOOTING BARES BIZARRE LOVETRIANGLE Missing Sailor Holds Key to Murder Mystery, Is Police Theory. BULLETIN By l'nitnl Press HOLLYWOOD. April 27.—N. C. McDermott, sought as a possible witness to the slaying of Paul Wharton, motion picture dress designer, was reported being held aboard the U. S. S. Pennsylvania, the sheriff's office said this afternoon. By United Press HOLLYWOOD. April 27.—A bizarre story on a "love triangle” was sifted by police today as they attempted to uncover motives in a murder mystery in which two persons were killed and a third was wounded, perhaps fatally. Investigators pursued "new leads” which they said may change the entire complexion of the slaying of Paul Wharton, young motion picture dress designer, by his former chauffeur, William M. Howard, onetime United estates Naval Academy student. Police pressed search for H. C. McDermitt blond sailor "mystery man” from the U. S. S. Pennsylvania believed to be the third person in the “triangle” that resulted in Wharton's murder and Howard's suicide. Film Colony is Shocked McDermitt, only living witness to the shooting, was believed to have fled to San Diego and the Mexican border. The film colony was shocked as the investigation, at first directed on the theory the murder followed a financial dispute between the young designer and Howard, disclosed a strange quarrel between the two men, over McDermitt, the sailor. Police believed that Wharton and Howard quarreled bitterly and the chauffeur, in a rage, fired three shots into Wharton's chest and fled through a window. Panic-Stricken Sailor Flees Then he went to the apartment of Henry E. Bolte, law professor and friend of Howard's, and fired two bullets into Bolte's back, attempted to flee and then turned the gun on himself, firing one bullet into his brain. McDermitt, meanwhile, was believed to have become panic-strick-en at the sudden turn of events, and to have fled. Bolte, near death in a hospital, at first denied he knew Howard, but later admitted he and the former Annapolis student were acquaintances and police learned there had been financial transactions between them. Police learned that Wharton and Howard became acquainted several years ago when the dress designer was said to have been known as a drug addict.
DAYLIGHT SAVING TO START TOMORROW Many Cities Affected, but Not Indianapolis. Daylighl saving time will go into effect at 2 a. m. tomorrow in hundreds of communities east of the Mississippi. Indianapolis will not be included among these communities. A state law enacted in 1929 provides that all cities of mo r e than 300,000 population operate on Central Standard Time. It provides that courts, banks, public offices and legal proceedings be regulated by Central Standa r d Time, and this provision would make it impractical for business firms to attempt to operate on daylight saving time.

Versailles Treaty Military Clauses Dead, High Hitler Aids Say. WARN ENGLISH AIRMEN Planes Flying Over Reich to Face Severe Penalties, London Told. By United Press LONDON, April 27.—Germany has advised Great Britain of her intention of building’ a fleet of submarines and it was understood tonight that French and British representatives would confer probably next week on this latest Reich violation of the Versailles treaty. Francois Pietri. French minister of marine, will come to London next week, ostensibly to attend the marriage of the daughter of Sir Bolton Eyres-Monsell, first lord of the admiralty. But it was learned that Pietri : and Sir Bolton will exchange views i on the German naval expansion plans, which aroused grave concern in the British Isles. It was revealed officially at the same time that Germany has warned British aviators to keep away from prohibited areas under pain of severe penalty. Supplementing information as to the submarine plans, it was learned from German quarters that the German notification was made to the British government at Berlin yesterday. U-Boats Absolutely Forbidden Submarines are absolutely forbidden Germany by treaty. Such construction would mean that Germany has openly violated all the military clauses—army, air and navy. The warning to aviators was interpreted as a blunt demand that foreign airmen keep away from the areas where Germany is preparing its big army and its air force. News of this warning came from the air ministry in a warning to aviators which said: “Official notification has been received that United Kingdom aircraft have recently infringed regulations when flying over German territory, and pilots are warned that severe measures are likely to be taken in case of any further infringement.” Follows French Warning Pilots were reminded that before going abroad they should acquaint themselves with all flying regulations of the countries they purpose to visit. It followed the French warning of yesterday to German airmen that any planes which flew over the secret fortified area on the GermanFrench frontier would be reminded of their trespass by blank shots from anti-aircraft guns and, if they did not race for home soil, would be forced down by special combat units. Germany today denied that any planes had flown over the area mentioned except by accident. German Officials Brazen (Copyright. 1335. bv United Press) BERLIN, April 27.—Germany considers the naval clauses of the Versailles Treaty no longer in effect, spokesmen for two government departments told the United Press today. Germany, they said, holds that the naval obligations under the treaty were covered by the March 18 declaration in which compulsory army service was decreed. RESTORATION OF FIRE, POLICE WAGES ASKED Councilman Kealing to Introduce Ordinance at Meeting. Councilman Ed R. Kealing will introduce at the next meeting of the Indianapolis common council an ordinance calling for the restoration of cuts in the salaries of city firemen and policemen, he announced today. The amount police and fire salaries have been cut is approximately 15 per cent and restoration would add more than $363,000 to the annual expenses of the city. If restored, salaries of the police and fire chiefs would be S4BOO annually, whereas they now receive $3967.20, and first-grade patrolmeri would receive $2092.50 instead of only $1750.72.
