Protecting Nationals
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9 (U, P.).— Administration officials said today that the United States could not guarantee physical protection to its shipping or to its nationals and their property abroad unless the Army and Navy are augmented to the point where they would con-

EIGHT DRAW FINES ON GAMING CHARGES
One Declares Grand Jury to Hear of Irregularity.
Eight men were fined on gambling charges in a Municipal Court case today which brought a declaration from one defendant that he would take charges of police irregularity, striken from the Court record today, before the Marion County Grand Jury. -
Special Judge Edwin Smith found Walter A. Sutton, who made the accusation, and Edward Wright guilty of keeping a gambling house and fined them $25 and costs each and suspended 30 days’ jail sentences upon payment of fines and costs.
John R. Penrod, 2213 N. Illinois St., was fined $10 and costs for visiting a gambling house, and 10 days were suspended upon payment. Five men were fined $5 and costs for gaming and $10 and costs each for visiting and 10 days each were suspended on payment of fines and costs.

attributed to Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain personally. Britain was ready to send additional warships to join her already big Mediterranean fleet, it was said, as soon as the submarine conference ended. All participating countries will be asked to provide
‘+ warships.
British and French warships—and warships of any other nation, in"cluding, the United States, that agreed to co-operate—would escort merchant ships from end to end of the Mediterranean. They would have orders to sink without mercy any submarine or other warship, any airplane, that sought to attack the convoy on the high seas.
, Favors International Fleet
France favors an international war fleet of formidable proportions to halt! submarine piracy in the Mediterranean, a Foreign Office spokesman declared today. The spokesman said that although Germany and Italy may not join, a
organized for mutual adding: It was the prospect of an ItalianGerman boycott of the Mediterranean Conference that brought the second British plan. The first plan was- worked out in co-operation with France. But an important feature was a proposal for registration of submarines and restriction of submarine activities, and with Italy absent this. would be impracticable.
Hence, the reported second plan based on the convoy system under which 8,000,000 American troops were taken to France during the World War through submarine infested waters, almost without casualties.

Wall Saves Home
A fire wall constructed by the garage owner next door saved their house. From that garage firemen drove five automobiles, although the garage also was undamaged. Meanwhile, hundreds of spectators were endangered when a utility pole in the alley at the rear caught fire. It bore four wires carrying 4000 volts each, and three carrying 2300 volts each. Spectators refused to leave the alley. Firemen were forced to pour water on the pole constantly to prevent its falling. For blocks around, hundreds of autos were parked as citizens were drawn from all over town by the raging blaze. Exact time the fire started was not known. A merchant policeman said he saw no sign of flames at 10

EVEN POLICE UNABLE T0 QUST THIS HORSE
He’s Balky, He’s Homeless, He’s Blind!
«
Ever since Tuesday, the Edward K. Fenners, 2215 N. Arlington Ave. have been having trouble with a horse they don’t know. It appeared out of no place and won’t leave. It is a dark bay horse. They put it up for the first night and hr called State Police. The State Police written report says “ . .. horse came to this person’s house and Mr. Fenner wants to know what to do with it.” State Police told Mr. Fenner they didn’t want the horse because it had no license plates with which to trace it down. Mr. Fenner talked with them a they would not change their minds. . Then he decided to let the horse out in hopes it would go back where it came from. But he soon discovered the horse was blind and wouldn't go any place. He's planning to call State Police again.

Hurry Up!
Seidle Would Be Glad To See Him, Threat Or No Threat.
Ray Seidle, prosecutor’s office investigator, today found in his mail a postal card dated at Knox, Ind,
hearing the following words printed in ink: “Sleuth-Foot Seidel: “Read in the paper where you shot yourself. © Will be in Indianapolis soon. Maybe I can finish the job.” (Signed) “Al Brady and the Boys.” * “The card might not be so much of a joke as it appears,” Prosecutor Herbert M. Spencer said. Mr. Seidle was shot accidentally in the arm Tuesday when his pistol fell out of his pocket. He was assigned to the investigation of the slaying of Sergt. Richard Rivers here more than a year ago, allegedly by the Brady gang. Brady is now hunted by G-Men and police in every state.
HAMILTON GAINS IN G. 0. P. POPULARITY
Favored for His Ability to Raise Money.
(Continued. from Page One)
led by Rep:"Hamilton Fish of New York, has ‘been calling loudly for the head of Mr. Hamilton, aided and abetted by older leaders of liberal or progressive stamp. They -elaim he is too much allied with the conservatives. In a recent article for The Young Republican, Rep. Fish said the National Committee should have accepted Mr. Hamilton's resigpation at the meeting last Decemer
Though Mr. Hamilton is not popular with some of the western progressives, such as Senator Borah of Idaho, he has support: from the regularly ordained leaders in the Middle and Far West who want to retain their grip on the party machinery gained through the nomination of Governor Landon. In 1934, as a candidate for the Republican national chairmanship against Henry P. Fletcher of Pennsylvania.who was chosen, John Hamilton received 25 votes, mostly from the Middle West.
Acceptable to East
The chairman is acceptable also for the present to Eastern leaders because of his success in raising funds and because of his conservative viewpoint. The job is not a comfortable berth and there are not, particularly at this low ebb in party fortunes, many men available who would be willing to assume it. Recently Mr. Hamilton's moneyraising campaign in New York, which is the principal Republican nest egg, has been slowed down temporarily because of New York City mayoralty contest. Republicans are loath to contribute until they find out who will be the nominee,

FATAL TO BABY
16-Month-0ld Paul Donald Brinson Dies in City Hospital.
The eight children of Mr. and Mrs. Orville Brinson sat in their fiveroom West Side home today, weeping quietly over the death of their baby brother. He was Paul Donald, just 16 months old. He died in City Hospital yesterday afternoon, four hours after he drank kerosene. A groceryman delivered a can of kerosene to the modest home at 525 Birch Ave. When he put it down on the kitchen floor, Mrs. Brinson was preparing lunch for her husband and five of the children, due home from School 47 in a few minutes. The other two, Clarence, 17, and Betty Jane, 3, are not, in grade school.
Can Attfracis Attention
In the next room, Paul Donald sat on the knee of his big sister, Mrs. Gladys Meador, who is 16. His five brothers and sisters came trooping in from school—Doris, 14; Richard, 12; Pauline, 10; Robert, 8, and Claude, 6. Paul Donald heard Doris’ voice. She was his favorite sister. He climbed down from Gladys’ knee and toddled toward the kitchel. Near the door, his attention was attracted by the can of kerosene. His childish curiosity aroused, he stopped. He placed his lips to the spout and sucked in the kerosene. Doris saw him. She screamed. The mother turned from the stove, picked up the baby. A neighbor drove the mother and Paul Donald to a doctor, then to City Hospital, as fast as he could drive. But Paul Donald died al 4:10
