COUNTY'S BLIND , ARE TO RECEIVE PENSIONCHECKS Social Security Payments to Be Made Saturday to 89 Here. Checks are to be mailed to 89 blind destitute persons in Marion County Saturday under the blindpension act passed by the 1935 Legislature. Applications for this number have been investigated and upon by the Board of Industrial Aid for the Blind and have iieen approved by Circuit Court Vudge Earl R. Cox. Pensions vary from $8 to $25. a month, depending on individual needs as determined by other means of support, according to Charles D. Chadwick, executive secretary of the board, and are to be paid from general funds of the state. Under the social security law passed by Congress, but for which money has not been appropriated, the Federal government Is to remit to the state half of all money, but not more than sls a month per person, spent in this manner. 1800 Await Action Applications are on file from about 1800 blind persons throughout the state, 200 of whom are in Marion County. These persons are to receive pension checks as soon as investigation of each case is completed, Mr. Chadwick said. A number of persons who are ,to receive checks have been on direct relief from township trustees and charitable organizations. One of the provisions of the pension act is that persons receiving benefits under the act are not permitted to accept other relief. Destitute blind beggars are to disappear from the city streets, Mr. Chadwick said, as soon as they qualify for pensions. Begging also is prohibited under the act. The board receives letters daily lrom blind persons expressing gratitude for the pension, Mr. Chadwick said. ,1000 STATE BRIDGES REGARDED AS HAZARDS Lack of Funds Prevents Commission From Making Improvements. Approximately 1000 small, narrow bridges on Indiana roads are regarded as safety hazards, but the 'State Highway Commission is un- . to do anything about them because of lack of funds, Chairman Uames D. Adams said yesterday. Mr. Adams estimated it would cost the state approximately $21,000.000 to replace or widen the .bridges and the commission has only to $5,000,000 available annually for construction. The bridges are from 12 to 20 ■feet in width and most of them are lon small-width roads taken over by flthe highway commission. About 300 bridges have been Jwidened in the last two and a half tyears, Mr. Adams said. CLUB TOLD DETECTIVES NEED GOOD EYES, EARS Kiwanians Hear Joseph Ackerman Pinkerton City Manager. Joseph T. Ackerman, Indianapolis manager of Pinkerton’s detective agency, believes that good vision and hearing are necessary requisites for the detective. Mr. Ackerman told the Kiwanis Club luncheon yesterday in the Columbia Club that thriller stories in magazines do not present the true picture of the detective. “You don’t read of the long hours spent by the detective in shadowing and in the hundreds of other routine duties he must perform in order to get his man,” Mr. Ackerman said.

Rubber-Tired Mowers Among Show Features Housewives and Cowpunchers Not Forgotten in Public Exhibition of Hardware Merchandise at Murat. There is a handsome hand-tooled Western saddle at the Indiana Retail Hardware Association exhibition it the Murat that would have to be kept under lock and key if any real cowboys were present.

Ornately ornamented, it would delight any caballero at $225. Leather chaps are extra for $25. C. B. Crets, sales manager, Van Camp Hardware and Iron Cos., admitted he did not expect to find many Hoosier ranch hands to bid for the expensive saddles. They are sold mainly in the West. The exhibition opened Tuesday and is to continue through tomorrow. Any one who thinks there is no money in the Indiana harness business just has not been around, according to exhibitors. They point out sturdy team harness and say they will sell $1,000,000 worth of them this year. Lawnmowers Have Tires Fathers and brothers who will have to shove lawnmowers around the yard this spring and summer will be relieved to discover that rubber-tired grass cutters are the rage this year. In one corner of the exhibition room is a built-in bath and shower, so that if any guest tires of it all he can pull the curtain and sponge off. Elaborate, circular radios with plate glass fronts are offered for $350. Salesmen explain they sold big in Hollywood and Malibu beach. Col. (by virtue of former Gov. Ruby Laifoon of Kentucky) George Gray has some rifles and shotguns he is right proud of. There is a $262 Parker D. H. E. shotgun with a ventilated rib and single trigger, and a $145 over-and-under barrel shotgun. One of the trickiest items of the show is a stream-lined electric iron with heat control adjusted to various fabrics, a built-in switch on the iron itself, air-cooled handle and permanently attached cord. The housewife can get it for $5.95. There are coal, gasoline, kerosene and oil kitchen ranges that look and operate just like gas stoves. Some

Blue Monday is not so bad for housewives if they have one type washing machine with a safety mechanism which prevents fingers or other extraneous articles from getting mixed up in the wringer. One section of the exhibition is devoted to electrical appliances shown by Indianapolis firms. On display there is a refrigerator which freezes by heat. It works on the percolator principle. Ammonia is heated and percolated up the evaporator where the heat is absorbed. The freezing unit is self-contained and can be carried off to cool the beer at the ward picnic. What all exhibitors are trying to do is to convince dealers they can compete successfully with mail order firms by offering material as good and at as reasonable a price. The exhibition is open to the public. YOUTHS MEET TODAY IN Y. M. C. A. PARLEY Connersville to Be Scene of Older Boys’ Conference. -Times Special CONNERSVILLE, Ind., Jan. 30.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

ALL KANSAS IS CONSCIOUS OF LANDON HOPES Every One in State Knows That Governor Has Eye on White House. (Continued From Page One) which the writer, in his turn, went crunching over the snow. A dozen blocks from the center of town you find the Governor’s Mansion—but only after careful inquiry, for it is an ordinary tan brick house, w r here the Landons live like other Kansans with no pomp or formality. Has Friendly Grin I was shown into the Governor’s study on the first floor. My eyes were roving about the comfortable room when suddenly I was conscious of someone and, almost simultaneously, came a cheerful “hello.” The Governor has a friendly grin. He is not a prepossessing figure. He would not attract particular notice if. he passed you on the street. There’s nothing commanding or magnetic about him. The most definite impression is an air of easy-going casualness, which extends to his dress. He works well with his political colleagues—and you can see why. He had remained away from his office this morning because of a cold. He wore a suit of conservative pattern that fitted easily about his middling physique, a soft gray flannel shirt, bedroom shippers. Strolls About Room As he talked he sat, now with his head resting against the back of his chair, now, as he became emphatic, leaning forward. Occasionally he got up to rove about the room—not with the nervous pacing of some of our public men, but an" easy stroll. Frequently he squinted behind the spectacles which seem a necessary part of the man. I mentioned the bitter cold without, the snow which glistened in the cold sunshine. “Fine for the farmers,” he commented. “The most moisture we’ve had in three years.” All about the countryside they were talking about the snow. It had made Kansas farmers smile again. Nancy Jo Comes In Our conversation was interrupted by the curly-headed -year-old Nancy Jo, as her father calls her, who came boldly in with a demand that he take her sleighing. He had promised her, he told me. “All right, honey, I’ll take you in a little while,” he assured her. She hovered about the room for a while, but the visitor clung to his chair so she slipped out, finally, to join her younger brother upstairs. Their shouting and laughter tinkled down the stairs, the eternal cadence of childhoood. Meanwhile their father answered questions and built up the pattern of a political philosophy which is compounded of bits of stern conservatism and bits of what some call liberalism. He is difficult to catalog. Economy Is Instinctive His -emphasis on economy is instinctive and inherent. It is predominant in his personal life, as in his political creed. He kept a personal budget when he was in college. His views on government econ-

Now what in the world could this be? If you believe your eyes, it is some exotic new flewer —or perhaps a starfish. Yet it is neither of these, but something you’ve seen hundreds of times.

omy sit well with the Kansas farmer, that hard-bitten individual who has tightened his belt time and again in the last few years and who, though he willingly accepts Government checks as a right, is paradoxically insistent that the Government do not spend too much elsewhere. There’s a good deal of Vermont in Kansas, so the “Kansas Cooolidge” tag they have applied to Gov. Landon goes well with the Kansas farmers. Gov. Landon is their friend, as every political leader in this region must be. He accepted the Triple A while it was alive as the only practical solution offered. Now, looking to the future, he sees eye tb eye with President Roosevelt on a longtime soil conservation program whereby worn-out land will be withdrawn from cultivation for a cash rental. Advocates Non-Partisan Relief Farm relief, he holds, must be non-partisan and not a political issue. As for other matters, he accepts some of the New Deal objectives as they relate to spreading the benefits more widely, but criticizes the administration of New Deal reforms. He accepts the fact of a changing and complex society which necessitates new departures in government. He bespeaks the antipathy of the farmer and small business man out this way to what he calls “the great industrial plutocracy” w'hich has been built up in this country and which, he holds, intensified the depression. He is for social security, for assistance to the unemployed—but not, he says, as a privilege or a vested right, or charity, but as a common obligation. How he would straddle the twin

horses of relief costs and economy, if he should become President, is something no one has explained, Sentiment Is Built Up The strategy of those behind the Landon-for-President campaign, as they explain it, is to build up sentiment in this part of the country. For this purpose many volunteers are doing missionary work in Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Colorado, New Mexico and Minnesota—from all of which they expect delegates, in some cases entire delegations. Little money, they say, has been spent yet—only expenses like stationery, stamps and the like. If the Landon boom really catches on, they will strike out into other areas. “Shop the Town Then Shop Us” For Fine Quality Furs at Low Prices INDIANA FUR CO. 29 E.

HUGE STRIPPING SHOVEL SET UP AT STATE MINE One of Largest in World Now in Operation at Terre Haute. By United Press TERRE HAUTE. Jan. 30—Moving more than 3000 yards of earth every hour, one of the world's largest strip-mining shovels has started a 10-vear task of stripping coal at the Bobolink Coal Mine here. The huge shovel, powered by 30 electric motors, is capable of developing 2500 horsepower. It was designed and assembled for the Binkley Mining Cos., operators of the Bobolink vein. Weighing 2.600.000 pounds and towering 14 stories, the shovel was shipped to t-he mine a section at a time and assembled after three months of effort. Holds 37 Cubic Feet of Dir* It has an all-welded, alloy steel dipper, which holds between 37 and 38 cubic yards of dirt, and which can hold 75 persons. Maximum digging radius from the center of shovel rotation is more than 115 feet, with a maximum digging height of 100 feet. The “caprock,” which consists of rock, shale or slate on top of a seam of coal, can be removed by the shovel and dumped a distance of 215 feet—almost a city block—from ths point where is it taken. A maximum dumping height of

A cold is nothing to “monkey with.” It can take hold quickly and develop seriously. Take no chances on inviting dangerous complications. Treat a cold promptly and treat it for what it is—an internal infection. Take a preparation that is internal and one that is expressly for colds and not for a number of other things as well. A wise thing to take is Grove’s Laxative Bromo Quinine —for several reasons. Instead of a “cureall,” it is expressly a cold tablet. It is also an internal treatment which a cold, an internal infection, requires. And it does four important things. First, it opens
