BURGLARS ENTER STORE BY TRANSOM

A one-way trip through a transom was enough for burglars who ransacked the grocery at 1424 S. East St., early today, according to police. William Koehrn, 735 Terrace Ave., the proprietor, told officers the intruders squirmed through the opening over the rear door, apparently with much difficulty, to gain entrance to the building. After taking cigarets valued at $8, the burglars went to still greater trouble to pry open the door on their way out, he reported.

South Chicago Steel Riot

Start of Police - Picket Fight Escapes Camera Record.

By TOM OCHILTREE Motion pictures of the South Chicago Memorial Day battle, which | cost the lives of 10 Republic Steel | plant pickets, were being shown to- { day at the Circle Theater. Censored until yesterday by Para-

mount News, the film, which is to | continue at the theater for a week, | | gives a complete record of the af-, fray with the exception of seven |

| seconds—the seconds during which | police claim the strikers started the battle. First the workers carrying ban{ners and the American flag are | shown walking toward the deployed | line of police. These workers are the | heavy-muscled young men and the | bent but sturdy oldsters—the rollers, | the heaters, the No. 1 men and the | No. 2 men—who make the nation's

Banners Flay Company

Some of the banners say “Repub- | lic Steel vs. The People,” and “Give | the Workers a Break.” There is a | cacophony of shouts, but the police | seem hardly annoyed by this confused babble of sound. Then comes the seven-second lag, { while the cameras are being moved. | The next scene shows a remarkable

change.

Now the pickets are in full flight

and the police have opened fire on them. Some luckless fellows, who | apparently could find no means of retreat, are beaten by the officers. | Three police work on one short, | ragged man until he lies motionless. In this hideous tumult, a woman | who runs from one to the other of the still figures, finally is shoved away by police. When she persists in her search, she is put in the patrol wagon. Other pickets, some limping badly and most of them bleeding from head wounds, are pushed into the wagon with her. Most amazing is the expressions on the faces of the police. There was no hatred written there, only | fatigue. One of them pushes his cap back on his head and grins at a wounded striker.

MOTOR SPEEDWAY

DISSOLUTION ASKED

‘Spectators Suit Demands $50,000 Damages.

| | | A suit against the Indianapolis | Motor Speedway Corp., seeking $50,- | 000 damages and $25,000 attorney's | fees and asking dissolution of the corporation was filed in Superior Court 2 today by Paul Winesburg, a filling station attendant. Paul Davis, Speedway attorney, when informed of the complaint said: “This suit is not cause for much concern.” The plaintiff charged: 1.That he was knocked to the ground by “would-be officers” while he was standing atop a box on his parked car outside the Speedway last May 31. 2. That a National Guardsman tore his shirt, again struck him and later took him into custody. 3. That the corporation has misused its corporate powers and franchise by violating a state law which prohibits the promotion of automobile races for prizes. 4. That the corporation further misused its franchise by “bringing into the state certain persons to perform the duties of sheriff's deputies and other peace officers.” 5. That spectators are subject to constant danger from accidents or fires in the wooden stands. 6. That the Memorial Day 500mile races have taken 32 lives and mained and crippled many others. |

Newsreel Shown 1n City

Pictures Fail to Indicate Any Resistance to Armed Police.

| By HERBERT LITTLE Times Special Writer % | WASHINGTON, July 3. — The newsreel of the Memorial Day killing of strike demonstrators in Chi- | cago, long suppressed, but now released for general showing following its exhibition before the Senate Civil Liberties Committee, added several important links to the Committee’s chain of evidence. 1. The first picture of the outbreak, taken a few minutes after it started, shows a huddled mass of fallen marchers—apparently positive evidence that they were brought down by a volley from police revolvers. 2. No concerted attack by strikers is shown. No resistance to police is shown. 3. The police are shown repeatedly to have clubbed fallen strikers, using their regulation batons and i also white hatchet-handles said to have come from the Republic Steel plant. 4. At least two revolvers are visible in the picture, in the hands of policemen.

SUIT TO CONFESS JUDGMENT FILED

Fletcher-American Creditors Get $325,000 Offer.

An offer to confess judgment was filed in Federal Court today which, if accepted, would pay creditors of the defunct Fletcher American National Bank $325,000 and would end charges of mismanagement against the bank’s former officers and directors. Ne officers and directors filed the plea. Federal Judge Robert C. Baltzell set hearing for 2 p. m. July 13. If the offer is accepted, the $325,000 judgment would be the largest sum ever recovered for Indiana creditors of an insolvent bank, it is be- | lieved.

Follows Earlier Suit Today's suit followed an earlier one brought by liquidating trustees | Otto J. Feucht, John P. Collett and | William N. Fleming Jr. against the form directors and officers. It charged the defendants were liable for making loans in excess of 10 per cent of capital, surplus and undivided profits, and for other alleged mismanagement in the bank’s affairs. Today's suit was filed in the name of William L. O'Connor and about 25 others, including George C. Forrey Jr., Elmer W. Stout, Anna L. Stempfel and Thomas D. Taggart. In making the offer, the former directors and officers stipulated that its acceptance must constitute a permanent injunction ending the defendants’ liability for mismanagement of the bank.

organizer among Republic Corp. employees there, Mr. Owens explained that Harry Wines and John Gracjier had taken over the duties of Gus Hall, held at Warren, O., in $50,000 bail on charges that he was head of a ring of terrorists that attempted to damage property of Republic Steel Corp. Mr. Owens declined to comment

on the reason for the changes, but |

said he took complete responsibility for them and had not acted at the suggestion of any other C. I. O. official. With Republic Steel and Youngstown Sheet & Tube claiming they were approaching normal production throughout the Mahoning Valley, Mr. Owens announced three union mass meetings for Sunday in an attempt to rally C. I. O. forces to continue the strike. He will address a meeting at Canton at 5 p. m.; Clinton S. Golden, Steel Workers’ Organizing Committee region director at Pittsburgh, will speak at a rally here at 3 p. m,, and Philip Murray, chairman, will address an afternoon meeting at Johnstown, Pa., where the strike continues against the Bethlehem Steel Corp, Cambria plant. Republic opened two mills at Massillon, O. under the protection of National Guardsmen, and almost 400 men entered the plant where normally 4000 are employed. Joseph Morton, union leader, watched the shifts change and said “there may be trouble later.” However, there was no immediate threat of violence in Massillon, a strong C. I. O. town.

Rail Brotherhoods Ponder Strike Call

By United Press CHICAGO, July 3—The 14 nonoperating railroad unions joined the “Big Five” operating groups today in a movement to decide whether they should call a strike to enforce their demand for wage increases. The separate strike polls by the 19 brotherhoods will involve 1,100,100 workers, virtually all the nation's railroad labor. The 20 cents hourly wage increase they are asking would add approximately $360,000,000 annually to railroads’ wage bills, union officers said. The strike vote for nonoperating groups was

CLAIMS PARALYSIS

GERM IS ISOLATED

Mayo’s Doctor Says Vaccine Already Prepared.

By United Press

LOS ANGELES, July 3.—Isola-

tion of the infantile paralysis germ was claimed today by a Mayo Brothers Foundation bacteriologist.

Dr. Edward Carl Rosenow, the discoverer, said the next step toward curbing the disease is development of a serum or vaccine. He said preliminary work to this end has already been accomplished. Startling a meeting of 160 medical men at suburban Glendale with the announcement last night, Dr. Rosegow told how he tracked down the germ by working with spinal fluid taken from nurses who contracted the disease at the Los Angeles County Hospital during an epidemic in 1934. Micro-organisms carrying infantile paralysis were recovered from spinal fluid and from bits of muscle

taken from patients suffering from |

the disease.

Rabbits and mice inoculated with | the law firm of Smith, Remster, | the germs promptly contracted the |

same disease.
