Drive to Boost Potato Prices Get Under Way Wallace Expects Act to Be Modified by Congress, Dislikes Compulsory Features and Heavy Penalties. By United Press WASHINGTON. Dec. 2.—The AAA today began administration of a potato control act with expectation that it would be considerably modified within three months. The law. now compulsory on all commercial potato growers, was de-

signed to increase the returns to the farmers by raising prices and stabilizing production. A domestic production of about 350.000,000 bushels is predicted in the next 12 months. Secretary of Agriculture Wallace recently declared he had been “assured” by congressmen from potato growing states that the law would be amended early in the next session of Congress. Wallace’s objections are to the compulsory feature;;, the stringent criminal penalties on both buyers and sellers of untaxed potatoes, and the lack of provision for variations in the market situation. AAA stamps signifying tax-ex-emption have been issued for 225,600,000 bushels. A tax of threequarters of a cent a pound on sales above the quota is set. Sees 45 Per Cent Rise Price of potatoes is expected to increase at least 45 per cent due to

Rough Riding The road of the youthful hitch-hiker in Indianapolis is paved with rough stones. Chief Morrissey said today that he has informed patrolmen and officers to be on the lookout for grade and high school automobile “thumbers” in the city. Each boy or girl caught “thumbing” a motorist is to be questioned as to his name, address and the number of the school which he or she attends. In some cases arrests may follow, the chief said. But in most cases the children probably will find that they are to become a member of the weekly traffic school which is held Saturdays at the Central Library. The school is to teach children how to avoid accidents and lessen the traffic toll In Indianapolis.

HEALTH SEALS SENT7O.OOO Annual Drive for Funds to Aid Tuberculosis Camp Opens. Mail carriers today delivered 70.000 letters of mercy to city and county homes. Christmas seals for 1935, averaging $1 worth or 100 stamps in a letter. were sent by the Marion County Tuberculosis Association, 130 E, Washigton-st. today to patrons of the annual drive to aid the Julia Jameson nutrition camp at Bridgeport and other tuberculosis work of the association. A letter from Eli Lilly, seal drive chairman, was inclosed and pointed out that persons who can not afford to use 100 seals may return them to the association. The goal of this year’s sale is $32.COO, which is S3OOO more than was raised last year. This year's goal, however, is SIO,OOO less than the $42,000 in seals purchased in 1929. The Indiana Medical Association, Indianapolis Church Federation, pastors of all church denominations and welfare workers urge purchase of the seals. “Christmas Seal Sunday” was observed yesterday in city churches.

the new government tax of threequarters of a cent a pound, according to Horace E. Abbott, county agricultural agent. While the tax becomes effective on the 1936 crop, the price on the present crop will show a sharp increase due to heavy buying of taxfree potatoes which will reduce greatly the available supply, Mr. Abbott said. Potatoes now selling for 25 cents a peck are expected to sell for 36 or 37 cents, Mr. Abbott said. The tax is part of s he AAA program to reduce potato acreage and control the volume of production. Richmond Detective Dies By United Press RICHMOND. Ind., Dec. 2.—David Carr, 52, chief of Richmond detectives and veteran peace officer, died today from a complication of diseases.

PICKFORD STORY INSPIRATION FOR PASTOfTS TALK *Why Not Try God?’ Theme of Rev. Rothenberger's Sermon Sunday. Mary Pickford's “Why Not Try God?” appearing in The Times was subject of the Rev. William F. Rothenburger's sermon at Third Christian Church yesterday. His text was from I Peter v, 7: "Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God . . . casting all your anxiety upon Him. because He careth for you.” "Not long ago.” said Mr. Rothenburger, “in filling out a marriage certificate in the presence of a wedding party, an ink bottle was accidentally spilled. It ruined the certificate and did violence to the parlor rug. Because of a shade of superstition, it disturbed the bride, who looked upon it as a possible evil

The fourth Pickford article is on Page 4. omen. Someone said. ’Why not try ammonia?’ It worked, and the ink spot disappeared. “Life is full of black spots of various kinds—sin spots, worry spots, sorrow spots, burden spots and many others. Fitting exactly into the above text comes an interesting headline over a series of articles by Mary Pickford under the caption, ‘Why Not Try God?’ I do not know how well the author has succeeded empirically with this philosophy; nevertheless, when science, secular education, materialism, atheistic humanism and many other agencies have not kept the world out of the moral, social and economic dumps, the hurling of this question into the teeth of a distorted race is most timely.” God Gives Aid to Spirit Those who are carrying burdens of worry and responsibility and who are ’Trying God” are succeeding in maintaining a buoyancy of spirit, said Mr. Rothenburger. Speaking of prayer, he said, "Many of us, after staggering under our unsolved problems, go to bed with them just as we do with all the members of our body, just as though there was no God. We rise in the morning exhausted and unfit for the new day. Not so with the Man of Nazareth. He tried His God and found that it worked. “The world is full of sorrow, not imaginary but real. There are two ways of meeting it, by human stoicism or by letting God share it with us. Those who use the former may succeed for a time, but ultimate failure stares them in the face. Jesus used the latter, saying, ‘Let not your heart be troubled, believe in God, believe also in Me.’ Why not try God?” BAR LEADER TO SPEAK Fred Gause Will Talk on “Lawyer and Public” at Evansville.

Circuit Judge Wirt Worden of La Porte, today added another legal chapter to the fight of D. C. Stephenson. former Klan leader, for treedom from the State Prison. Judge Worden's action alleged that his is a court of original jurisdiction and is the only court located in the county in which Stephenson could carry his fight. The state filed the prohibition writ against Judge Worden in Stephensons fight for a habeas corpus which, his attorneys said, would free him if it was upheld. Judge Worden has two weeks in which to file briefs in support of his motion. Temporary Order Issued A temporary order was issued by the Supreme Court Nov. 21 at the request of Atty. Gen. Philip Lutz Jr. and J. Edward Barce. his deputy. who charged Judge Worden was invading the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.
