DILLINGER GOT UNJUST TERM. SAYS M'NUTT Killer Victim of Faulty Sentencing System, Asserts Governor. (Continued Frorr> Page Onoi fenders sentenced for auto banditry to the Indiana Reformatory, and their sentences were as follows: 32 for 10 years; three for 12 years; two for 15 years; two for 25 years; four for one to 10 years; one for five to 21 years and two for 10 to 25 years. Four of those men probably will be paroled after serving a year or a little more, while two of them will have to remain 25 years,; uni >ss they are pardoned or their sentences commuted by the Governor. "The sentences of the 23 first offenders in the State Prison who were sentenced for auto banditry j were as follows: 16 for 10 years, two for 12 year:, one for 25 years, one i for five to 10 years and three for ' 10 to 15 years. Sentences for recidivists show the same irregularity.” 1 files Habitual Criminal Law "Indiana has had an habitual criminal law for many years. Sixteen men in the State Prison were iound to have been sentenced under this law, 367 others had had as bad or worse records, and they had not been sentenced under this law. "A comparative study cf the sentences of first offenders and recidivists for 15 different offenses re- j vealed no well-defined tendency on the part of courts to give heavier .sentences to recidivists than to first offenders. "It is inevitable that tnose men who received the comparatively long j •sentences will be embittered by that | fact. As they see it. organized society has been unjust to them. Because they are embittered, they probably are poor risks lor parole. To blame parole alone for their return to crime is little short of inane. Bitterness Not Only Handicap "But bitterness is not the only j handicap under which the parole organization operates. About 60 per j r ent of the prisoners in Indiana in- j stitulions are recidivists, and it is ! highly probable that many of these repeaters are psychopathic and neu rotic, and some of them are insane. "None of those in the Indiana Reformatory has been pronounced in- j sane, but the repeated criminal behavior of these recidivists is good presumptive evidence that their mental processes deviate considerably from those of normal citizens. "When one of these repeaters comes before a court, he is tried on the basis of the facts relating to the commission of the offense with which he is charged. "His normal or abnormal personality traits are not considered, unless lie presents clear cut symptoms of insanity. Yet these traits are more important from the viewpoint of society than the mere fact of the guilt of the man. "They determine what to expect , of him, and yet society turns these ; persons over to the parole authorities with the expectation that, if I parole is a sound method of penal ; administration, they will be restored j to good citizenship. It is an absurd ! responsibility to place upon parole j authorities.” TWO MILWAUKEE BANK BLASTS PUZZLE POLICE Outlying Branches Not Seriously Damaged in Explosions. Hn I nit id I’li n.i MILWAUKEE, Oct. 28.—Bombing of two branches of the First Wisconsin National Bank mystified police today. The first blast last night tore out the rear wall of the Citizens' j branch. Fixtures and windows were shattered but the concrete wall of thp vault was not damaged. A half-hour later a similar explosion occurred at the rear of the East Side branch. The bank was not damaged but several automobiles parked nearby were wrecked. Police believed safe crackers would no; have risked throwing the bombs, which attracted large crowds. Bank officials said they knew of no reason for the bombings.

ITALIAN ARMY AWAITS DRIER Attack on Ethiopians Due Today, Anniversary of Fascist March. (Continued From Page One) advance up the Fafan River valley. This will mean a finish fight for the Addis Ababa-Djibouti Railway, and Ras Nassibu, the Ethiopian commander-in-chief, has completed his preparations with mobilization of men, women and even children for a battle which may come within 10 days. Addis Ababa Arms Hy l nihil I’l'IKK ADDIS ABABA, Oct. 28—The capital began strengthening today against air attacks, presumab y on the theory that the departure of the former Italian minister, Count Luigi Vinci-Gigliucci increased the danger of an Italian air raid. After three weeks of calm, antiaircraft machine guns, placed at various strategic positions the first day of the war and later removed, reappeared yesterday in Menelik Square and also near the old and the new royal palaces. Their protection appears meager. The emperor's military commanders in the North were preparing to meet an anticipated Italian drive southward from the Adigrat-Aduwa-Aksum line. According to reports current here. Italian planes have been scouting a direct route southward, trying to locate the Ethiopian forces now on the march northward, probably w;lh the object of returning with bombers to disrupt the movement.

\ MAN appeared at the rear door of the home of Harry Hippie. 3017 N. Talbot-st, Saturday night, and demanded something to eat. He got it. In a few moments the family heard a noise upstairs, and investigated. Their "guest” jumped informally out of the window and disappeared. A search disclosed that he had taken a purse cotnaining $lO. Police were unable to pick up the man’s trail.

LEGION PARADE CENSORSHIP IS MAJOR ISSUE National Commander Urges Concerted Drive for Bonus Passage. Pleas for "pur.fixation” of American Legion parades and a concerted drive to secure passage of the bonus bill were made today at the Legion commanders and adjutants conference at national headquarters. 777 N. Meridlan-st. Commander Ray Murphy urged a ban on parade stunts of salacious character in his address to the 200 commanders and adjutants attending the conference. "I don’t want to appear a prude or a scold, but it seems to me that legion parades should be pageants of patriotism. I know this year at St. Louis, much criticism was directed toward us.” he said. "We’ve all become of age and it s°em.s there’s no necessity of Legionnaires parading in scanty attire. Suggests Care in Selection He suggested commanders take this into consideration in the naming of parade marshals. A bonus bill, written to answer the veto of President Roosevelt and without inflationary proposals, is to be pressed for final passage in Congress, the Legion executives were told by John Thomas Taylor, vice chairman of the national legislative committee. He said he had been assured that the bonus bill would receive first consideration in the United States Senate in the coming session. Mr. Taylor pointed out the possibility that United States Supreme Court action on New Deal legislation might result in delay in the bonus if the Administration is forced into bringing remedial legislation before Congress. Need for broadening the Economy Act, the passage of bills for payment of pensions to orphans and war widows of veterans dying of nonservice connected ailments, also are to be given major consideration by the legislative ccmmitte in the 1936 Congress. Majar Topics of Conference The rehabilitation program and Americanism work for the ensuing year also were major topics of the conference, Fred M. Fucker. Washington, department adjutant, was to discuss the inroads made by Communism into labor unions, schools, colleges, churches and government institutions at this afternoon's meeting. "The present situation in the United States is a race between Fascism and Communism,” in the opinion of Mr. Fueker. "Millions of dollars have been provided to mislead, confuse and intimidate our people.” he said. Tonight the visting commanders and their adjutants are to be given a dinner by the Forty and Eight in the Antlers. Sessions of the national executive committee begin Friday morning. The Legion’s budget is to be adopted. National adjutant, treasurer, judge advocate and historian are to be elected and confirmed as appointments of the national commander by the committee. Dates for the 1933 convention at Cleveland are to be selected. A committee which investigated the Florida hurricane disaster that resulted in a large death toll among veterans in Civilian Conservation Corps camps is to give a report.

Mrs. Mary Baglan

Couple Married in Hospital Following Explosion Injuries. Today Mrs. Louis Baglan, 18-year-old bride oi one day, began a honeymoon vigil at the hospital cot of her husband in St. Vincent’s—determined that he will win on the halfway chance physicians give him to live. They were married yesterday with his mother, Mrs. Rose Baglan. a nurse, and his brother and sister-in-law in attendance. Louis asked that the ceremony be performed. Physicians had done all they could immediately for the first degree burns Louis received Saturday when gasoline he was working with exploded and covered him with flames. Louis and his bride, the former Mary Leonard, had intended to get married anyway, when they had enough money. Physicians and members of his family agreed that if the ceremony was performed yesterday his morale wcu’d be helpfully bolstered, and aid him in fighting for his life. Louis was burned Saturday when an explosion occurred at the Purity Cone and Pretzel Cos., 2643 North-western-av. He ran from the place, clothing ablaze, across a field to aid. Louis, his mother and his bride live at 2647 Northwestern-av. The bride says, with determination, "he will get well.”

SLASH ASKED IN CITY RATE Taxpayers Group to Ask Revision of Estimated Revenues. (Continued From Page ,One) tions. The county estimates only 93 per cent of taxes will be collected while Mr. Miesse reiterated his belief that 100 per cent results will be obtained. Mr. Sheppard supported this theory on the county siuation. Asks Pension Reduction Mr. Sheppard asked for a reduction in the old-age pension appropriation of $325,000. He said that with Federal aid $275,000 should be ample, indicating this figure would in mil an average payment of sl7 monthly. Fabian Biemer, deputy county auditor, and Dow Vorhies, county commissioner, defended the counvy budget. They said $325,000 was the minimum needed for pensions and pointed out that the county owes ;i50.000 for pension obligations this year for which no funds are available. Mr. Sheppard indicated that the county budget would stand a reduction of $60,000. or 1 cent in the rate, without curtailing governmental functions. “The 59-cent rate is reall iynsufficent and we will have a deficit if all bills are paid.” Mr. Biemer declared. Hearing on township rates is scheduled for this afternoon and the school city rate is to be aired tomorrow. The Perry Township rate is to be heard at 3:30 tomorrow. The Warren Township rate is scheduled for tomorrow at 9 and the Washington Township levy at 10:30. 30.000 HEAR PRINCE TERM SELF LEADER Vnn Starhemberg Proclaims He Is Head of Austria's Armed Forces. £/ Vnitcd Press VfENNA. Oct. 28.—Austrians studied with lively interest today the dictator-like speech which Prince Ernst Rudiger von Starhemberg delivered Sunday before 30,000 armed and uniformed members of the Heimwehr at Linz, in which he Droclaimed himself “supreme leader” of the country's armed forces. Many professed to read into the speech an open avowal that the Fascist leader aims to place himself at the head of an Austrian regency patterned after the regency through which Admiral Nicholas Horthy rules Hungary. Starhemberg, after referring to himself as der fuehrer, proclaimed that he would not tolerate any disobedience.

Fowl Play Eight Plymouth Rock hens, found yesterday, appropriately enough, in the women's rest room at School 97. today stood around clucking to themselves while police and school officials tried to figure out how they got there.

France has decided to go ahead with the penalties, but Premier Pierre Laval remains confident peace negotiations will be resumed and that a way out will be found. The government has informed, the mobilization of the British fleet in the Mediterranean so far in advance of any action by the League. Nor Britain's ultimatum to France, demanding a prompt answer to the question: "Do you intend to stand by us or by Italy?” Throughout, Britain had something more important in mind than Ethiopia. True, she never for a moment intended to permit Italy to make a protectorate of a key area like But in stopping Italy she would kill not one but several birds. First of all, perhaps, British statesmen—the Tories especially have felt that Britain has been slipping. They feel she isn't "respected’’ as she once was. Her voice does not seem to carry the weight it did in international councils. One reason for this, most Englishmen believe, is that Britain has allowed her navy to run down. When she ruled the wave, colonials toed the mark. When she talked, people listened. Today, Bchain's "old guard” are in the saddle and they plan nothing less than a restoration of everything outsiders used to mean when they said "John Bull.” They are going about it systematically. They are carefully taking stock. Directly, or through the League, Britain has contrived to force an answer to every question. Today she knows pretty well where she and most other nations stand, and is planning to act decisively in the light of this information.

RAIL TERMINAL ! MERGER FOES SEEK SUPPORT Union Leaders Appeal to Workers. Business and Civic Groups. Representatives of 17 railway labor unions, seeking to head ofT a proposed consolidation of railroad terminals in Indianapolis, today asked support from all branches of organized labor, public officials, business and civic organizations and railroad executives. Believing such a move would mean unemployment for 1000 men and decrease pay rolls approximately $2.800.000 a year, these leaders see the Indianapolis proposal as the first in a series of nation-wide consolidations. Railroads affected by the local project would be Indianapolis Union. Big Four, Pennsylvania. Monon. Nickel Plate. Illinois Central and the Baltimore Sc Ohio. Court Fight Indicated At a mass meeting in the English Saturday, it was said employes of the B. Sc O. already had raised a small fund to fight the consolidation by injunction proceedings. Alex E. Gordon, legislative represensntive of the Brotherhood of Railroad Firemen, said Joseph B Eastman. Federal railway co-ordi-nator. planned similar consolidations in Birmingham. Ala., and Kansas City. "These three cities are being used j in an experiment to convince rail | officials that such combinations save money. It is feared similar projects may be carried out elsewhere,” he said. Estimate Savings Leaders estimate $256,000 a year , wall be saved by a consolidation here, and that 89 per cent of this will be at expense of workers. In addition, this move will cripple freight handling facilities and depress real estate values, Martin H Miller. Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen representative, pointed out.

Their leader. Dr. Francis E. Townsend, urged the delegates to go to the polls at the next election and bring about “an orderly change in cur economic affairs that will result in established prosperity for all.” He did not specify that "Townsend candidates” would be in the running, but it was assumed that some method of indorsing acceptable candidates would be worked out by national headquarters. With the United States facing "universal prosperity or universal disaster.” the California physician said his plan of wealth distribution "will at orice bring about a new and vigorous prosperity in which all who wish to serve and be liberally rewarded for such service may find the opportunity.” A. F. Whitney of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen assured delegates the present machine system was capable of “sustaining a generous pension for our aged and at the same time reducing the hours of work and increasing wages of labor.” Townsend said money for payment of the pensions could be raised by a 2 per cent universal transactions tax to be levied on all business.
