FORMER HEADS OF CITY MARK ITS 10QYEARS Mayors Attend Celebration Arranged by Junior C. of C. Group. Indianapolis today had celebrated the centennial anniversary of Its incorporation as a city at a luncheon sponsored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce yesterday at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. Five of the six living former mayors and Mayor Kern reviewed the history of Indianapolis, and predicted a greater future. Tribute was paid to Judge Thomas L. Sullivan, mayor from 1890 to 1894, who was unable to attend the meeting. The five former mayors are Reginald H. Sullivan, Judge Sullivan’s son; L. Ert Slack, Charles W. Jewett, John L. Duvall and John W. Holtzman. Joseph P. McNamara was toastmaster. Four Butler University Thespians, Dorothea Craft, Mary Lou Over, Robert Emhardt. and Harold Miller, presented a pageant, written by Miss Craft, portraying life in Indianapolis during 1832-34. All Make Short Speech “Indianapolis is free from labor racketeering and unwholesome alliance of the criminals and police via politics,” Mayor Kern said, in terming Indianapolis a typical America city representing the best in culture and progress. Mr. Jewett said inspiration must be given to the young men of this generation to enable them to make “proper and equitable solutions of the problems arising from our complex economic structure.” Mr. Sullivan reviewed his father’s administration and said his father had counseled him during his administration, which preceded that of Mayor Kern. “When I came here, Indianapolis had a pouplation of 80,000, and today it has more than 400,000. I hope to see the day when Indianapolis has a population of 500,000. No inland city has progressed as much as Indianapolis,” Mr. Holtzman said. Mr. Duvall urged the construction of a municipal coliseum, and Mr. Slack said that the position of mayor in a city the size of Indianapolis required the co-operation of all citizens. Mrs. Samuel Lewis Shank, widow of another former mayor, was introduced. Georgs S. Olive, Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce president, praised the work of the junior organization. 2 BOYS - AWAIT PARENTS Kentucky Lads Stopped Here After Starting World Tour.

BILL SETTING UP CHAIN OF AIR BASES DOOMED Report of High Army Experts Is Filed With Dern. By United Press WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.—The Wilcox bill for the establishment of a chain of powerful Army air bases across the country, and at strategic points in overseas possessions was regarded In high official quarters today as dead. A reoprt of the board of expert Army officers set up by the bill to study strategic locations for proposed air basis is now on the desk of Secretary of War George H. Dern. Recommendatios, however, may serve as future guides for the War Department in its general plan of national defense strategy. Experts regard the establishment of the proposed air bases as being too far in advance of present national defense requirements to warrant the expenditure of necessary funds.

TRUSTEES FILE PROTESTS OVER WPAWORKERS Boone Officials Opposed to Transfer to Rural Electric Project. Times Special LEBANON, Feb. 6.—Boone County trustees who protested to Washington on the transfer of WPA workers to rural electrification projects today awaited a reply from government officials. Letters containing the protest, drafted by Paul J. Swank, superintendent of county schools, were mailed to Harry L. Hopkins, Federal relief administrator, Senators Frederick VanNuys and Sherman Minton and Rep. Virginia Jenckes. Miss Mary L. Case, special relief investigator for the trustees, also

protested to Administrator Hopkins as follows: “There is much dissatisfaction among Boane County residents on account of taking men off WPA projects and assigning them to the rural electrification projects. Boone County people think unemployed persons on relief should be assigned to work here because Boone county individuals will pay back this loan. Please send a ruling on this matter.” Protests sent by the trustees and Superintendent Swank to the two Senators and Mrs. Jenckes read: “With few exceptions all the men eligible for WPA work in Boone County are now on projects. Many men on relief are not eligible for WPA because you are assigning only those who were on relief between May 1 and Nov. 1. A large number of men do not wish to go on relief just to ret a job; these men should be taken care of with employment. We ask a reconsideration of our problem.”
