BEHIND THE MIKE a a a a a a Parker Wheatley Takes Important Post; Got Start as Announcer Here
BY RALPH NORMAN BACK in the twenties, Indianapolis children heard their Christmas letters read by WFBM's radio Santa Claus. Parker Wheatley. Parker, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. V. Wheatley, 1315 N. Oakland-av, had sold a sponsor the idea of a radio Santa Claus, unlocking for himself the door to broadcasting. His idea clieked. He played Santa Claus
several years, and read plays over WFBM for another sponsor. Before graduating from Butler in 1928, Parker had joined the WFBM announcing staff. A year later he went to KYW, Chicago, first as announcer, later as program director. When KYW moved from Chicago, he joined the Aubrey, Moore and Wallace advertising agency, where he handled part of Marshall Field radio advertising. Mr. Wheatley today takes anew position, this time with the University Broadcasting Council, a research organization supported by the University of Chicago, Northwestern and De Paul Universities. "Parker was interested in dramatics while at Shortridge, and later at Butler. His work in radio plays at Butler gave him the idea that he could per-

suade stores to hire him for commercial broadcasts. He started at the very bottom, when radio was rather young and ideas were wanted, his mother told us. She is very proud of her son s success. Mr. Wheatley writes that research has appealed to him since he first entered radio, and that he believes the University Broadcasting
Council is an ideal laboratory for co-ordinating commercial and educational interests in meeting public needs. a a a Listeners tonight will find two highlight programs on their dials. James Melton and Jessica Drag-
onette are to be co-starred in the Beauty Box Theater production of "The Great Waltz,’’ CBS (WFBM >, at 7, and at 8:30 A1 Jolson will bring to his microphone NBCWEAF iWLWi a scene from Marc Connelly’s "Green Pas-

The skin should begin to clear after you have taken the tablets a few nights, if you are like thousands of others. Help cleanse the bowels with Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, the successful substitute for calomel; there's no sickness or pain after taking them. Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets do that which calomel does, and just as effectively. but their action is gentle and mild instead of severe and irritating. Thousands who take Olive Tablets are never cursed with a "dark brown taste," a had breath, ad ill, liatleaa, "no jfood" feeling, dull complexion caused by constipation. Olive Tablets are a purely vegetable compound: known by their olive color. Dr. Edwards spent years among patients afflicted with constipation and Olive Tablets are the Immensely effective result. Take one or two at bedtime for a week. See how much better feel and look. 15c, 30c, 60c.—Adv.

Radio Stops Rivalry Among Entertainers 'Times Special NEW YORK, Feb. 15.—Radio has eliminated much of the bickering among slightly limelight-conscious entertainers, according to Rosario Bourdon. Mr. Bourdon conducts the orchestra for Jessica Dragonette’s Friday night brdadcasts. "In pictures,” Bourdon said, “oldtimers could take it away from newcomers every time. They would get the benefit of every camera angle. Stage players frequently resorted to coughing or moving on their rivals’ lines. "But in radio, this is impossible. A performer speaks his liuec into the microphone, and can not talk louder or more forcefully than the script calls for. Listeners judge the performance as they hear it, and award their approval to those with most ability.” Choirs to Broadcast Junior and senior choirs of the Emmaus Evangelical Lutheran Church are to broadcast at 8:30 tomorrow morning over WFBM. The Rev. W. C. Meinzen, pastor, is to talk.

Ford Programs Prove Popular Elimination of Much Sales Talk Meets Approval. Timm Special DETROIT, Feb. 15.—That good radio musical programs, free of much sales talk, have met with approval of listeners is shown by the increasing influx of complimentary letters resulting from Ford Sunday evening concerts. More than five million copies of J. W. Cameron’s short talks have been requested. One discourse, “Share the Wealth,” made such an impression that 157,000 copies were printed and distributed. In preparing the series, musical talent of the world is drawn upon. At least one internationally-known guest soloist appears on each program, and on a few occasions, as many as four have been presented. Full recognition is given American talent. Compositions of Wagner were used most frequently during the last series and the first 17 programs of the present series. Verdi compositions rank next, followed by Mendelssohn, Tschaikowsky, Herbert and Gounod. BURGLARS FAIL TO GET WINTER’S FOOD SUPPLY Intruders Pick Out Their Groceries, but Flee Empty-Handed. Burglars who evidently intended to lay in a food supply for the rest of the winter were frightened away before they could finish their work, police were told today. Two truck drivers, making early deliveries to the Pigglv-Wiggly store at 1533 N. Illinois-st, found a door window' smashed and groceries and meat stacked nearby. Two bandits had better luck last night at the Standard grocery, 4425 E. New York-st, getting after forcing James R. Jones, manager, and Francis Treacy, clerk, to lie on the floor. FILM PROMOTER SUED Colorado Company Charges “Cash Nights” Infringe on Rights. Suit on file today in Federal Court asks that N. C. Weinberg and the managements of 13 Indianapolis motion picture houses be enjoined from conducting bank nights. The action, brought by Affiliated Enterprises, Inc., of Denver, Colo., also asks SIO,OOO damages. It alleges that Mr. Weinberg arranged “cash night” enterprises for several theaters and that, despite the change in name, "cash night” infringes on the rights of the Denver corporation. 3 COATS ARE STOLEN Thief Ransacks Lockers of Circle Restaurant Employes. Three women employes of the Donahue Case, 111 Monument Circle, were saying nasty things about a thief today. With the mercury hovering around zero, someone stole their coats, valued at SIOO, from the lockersylasi night.

BY MAX STERN Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.—“ Don’t feel too secure about our enduring democracy,” Sinclair Lewis warned today. “Fascism of the sort that has destroyed parliaments in a half dozen European countries can and might happen here.” Novelist Lewis, a Nobel prize winner, has stirred millions of Americans by his new and sensational novel, “It Can’t Happen Here.” Such a coup as he described in this book is not a fantasy, he says. He sees it as a real, if not an imminent, danger. Interviewed today in his hotel here, he urged that Americans guard against the germs of Fascism that are scattered wide in this country. “I see no immediate danger from such a Fascist group as occurred in Italy or German,” he said. “But there are elements which, given certain circumstances and a passionate national leader, hold grave dangers to our democracy. No Leaders Now “Huey Long might have been such a leader. I don’t believe any of the popular leaders out in the states now have sufficient appeal. "Fascism, however, is not born overnight. It comes on cats’ feet, through a national state of mind, then through some crisis. We have symptoms of a dangerous state of mind here and there. I refer to such amazing proposals as the pending ‘military disaffection’ bill; the Kramer anti-sedition bill; the proposal to put union labor unions under a military dictatorship; teachers’ oaths; the brow-beating of professors by red-baiting societies and Hearst newspapers; vigilante committees; lynch law; the Mooney case; the Tampa beatings; new evidences of Ku-Klux Klanism and a pretty widespread wave of antisemitism. "These all indicate a fear psychology, which a national leader with sufficient passion and personality might exploit and weld into a movement.” Communism No Threat Mr. Lewis said these groups capitalize chiefly the fear of Communism. "There’s not the slightest danger from Communism in this country,” he said. The ‘Reds’ are only a handful, about as menacing as a religious cult. Out of 49,000,000 votes at the last election the Communists polled only about 125,000. The danger is from exploiting groups that endow them with frightfulness. An attack on Communism is almost a sure sign of Fascist-mindedness.” Contributing to this incipient American Fascism, Mr. Lewis finds out only the self-seeking patrioteering groups, but two other elements—discontent due to poverty, unemployment and other economic evils, and the cos iiness of our democratic processes. He pointed out to the California EPIC and Townsend movements to show how easy it is to mobilize the dispossessed middle classes, which in Europe make up the Fascist armies. He pointed to the awful wastes of popular government, particularly in the multiplicity of local, county and state governing functions. Raises “Brain Trust” “Hitler once said something eternally true,” he recalled. “This was that’ you can only fight a program with another program. We must fight our Fascism with economic reforms and political efficiency. "I would like to see the rise in this country of such a group of young experts in government as England seems to be developing, a government of Anthony Edens. There is the beginning of this in what has been sneeringly called the ‘Brain Trust.’ “I don’t underwrite all of the young men of the New Deal, but many of them are doing splendid work. The more brains and efficiency we get in government the more we will bulwark it against Fascist attack. "We can’t afford to support a slovenly democracy. Every ill-con-sidered and costly act of Congresslike the bonus measure—invites and incites such attacks on parliamentarianism.” RAILROAD DAMAGE SUIT SENT TOU. S.

FARM OUTLOOK IS BRIGHTENING Purdue Authority Predicts Fairly High Hog Prices Until Autumn. The farm outlook is better today than it; has been for some time, in the opinion of O. G. Johanningsmeier of the Purdue Farm Management Department. He spoke at the annual Marion County Farm Management School yesterday in the Washington. Hog prices should remain fairly high until fall, when the ) arket supply is to increase. As t ire is more feed and less livesux . this year, prices should be ge erally steady, he said. He advised farmers to select high grade seed adapted to this area. There is a shortage of good seed, mostly corn, he said. Legumes Are Favored He also said the Purdue department is recommending planting of high-yielding legumes for rotation crops to maintain balanced livestock feed. Mr. Johanningsmeier analyzed reports from more than 700 Indiana farms, showing which crops were the most profitable. “Bad management, in most cases, is what causes farm losses,” he said. Two Marion County farms with incomes well above the average were described. These farms both had net labor incomes of about SBOO, as compared to the average of $270. H. E. Moore, also of Purdue, discussed important factors in farm planning.

CO-OPERATIVES ARE EXPLAINED AT DEPAUW U. National Leader Discusses Movement for Students at Chapel. Times Special GREENCASTLE, Ind.. Feb. 14Interest in the co-operative movement today had reached anew high on the De Pauw University campus. Introduced by Paul Truner, economics senior, who has succeeded in organizing both a medical co-opera-tive at Economy, his home town, and a book exchange here, the social plan attracted fresh attention by a visit of Dr. J. P. Warbasse, National Co-operative Association president. Addressing De Pauw students at a chapel meeting, Dr. Warbasse declared, “The co-operative movement is dedicated to the proposition that we human beings need one another. Co-operation begins with the consumer, then moves back to the sources of production.” Turner Adds Views Although co-operation, according to the speaker, has shown itself able to compete with other forms of business, he added that "there is no desire to discriminate against private business.” These views were discussed further by Mr. Turner, “The principles of the co-opera-tive,” he declared, “are not radically different from those of ordinary business. They are, however, sufficiently different to eliminate piactically all the evils in our present capitalistic setup. “The co-operative eliminates overproduction and waste in distribution. It also eliminates the possibility of large profits going into the hands of a few.” * Recruits to Go South Enrollees at the local Navy recruiting office, 730 E. Washington-st, this month are to be sent for training to the Naval Training Station, Norfolk, Va., it was announced today.
