Butler University first-year coeds, just like men, now must wear “rhinie hats.” The new headgear for women is similar to the little green “ink spots” traditionally worn by freshmen. Scarlet Quill, senior girls’ honorary organization, is to see that the freshman girls obey the rules. Herve they are getting in practice. Left to right:

Times Photo. Georgia Foster, senior; Mary Jane Johnson and Lue cille Mayhill, “Ireshies,” and Evelyn King, senior. There won't be any impromptu haircuts, or even threats of haircuts—that was the photographer's idea. But anyway, the freshman girls better wear their little hats, says Scarlet Quill.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19 (U. P.). —Senator Harry S. Truman (D, Mo.) said today he will seek Senate action on the McCarran aviation bill early in January, but will not attempt to call the measure up for consideration during the special session. The measure, blocked in final days of the last session by Chairman Kenneth McKellar (D. Tenn.) of the Senate Postoffice Committee, would give the Interstate Commerce Commission powers over the aviation industry similar to the Commission’s authority over railroads. Truman arrived in Washington to open hearings before the Senate Interstate Commerce Committee on the proposed reorganization of the Missouri Pacific Railroad, one of the links in the $3,000,000,000 Van Swer=ingen railroad empire.

time, Dr. Verne K. Harvey, State Health director, said today. For the week ending Oct. 9 there were 37 new influenza cases veported in the state, he pointed out, while only 19 cases were listed last week. “Statistics in this office show that the first wave of colds and influenza usually starts with the beginning of school. Children who have been spending most of their time outdoors during the summer months come into closer contact with each other. “Usually the infection spreads to all those persons who are generally susceptible, then a decline is noted.” Dr. Harvey said this statement applied to the state as a whole, but might not be applicable to any particular community. An accurate check on this condition is hard to

Williams attempted to end his own life after the shooting, officers claimed. A few hours after Williams’ wife, Dorothy, filed suit for divorce in Circuit Court, Williams went to her parents’ home in northeastern Posey County, the officers said. He crept to an open kitchen window and fired a shotgun charge at his fath= er-in-law, Richard Ashworth, 60, killing him, police charged. Mrs. Williams, seated in the kitche

Buying demand for practically all classes of killing cattle continued at a low ebb today. Not many of the upper crust kinds were offered, and top sales were limited to good yearlings at $1450. Medium to low good kinds made up the bulk of the steer and yearling supply and moved within a spread of $9.25 to $11, or generally weak to 25 cents lower than Monday.

The woman slumped to the ground dead, dropping the baby. Mrs. Ashworth ran out, snatched up the child and started to run. Williams shot her on the hip, police charged.

lines are already forming on the

One of the things which more ®

than one eye will have to be peeled to detect will be what might be called the by-products of legislation. When laws are made, strange things ofttimes creep into them. There is a bill which comes in this category and which may well find its way into the general reorganization scheme, It is called the Logan bill and its aim is to create an administrative court. On its face it is just a plan to combine the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia, the Board of Tax Appeals, the Court of Claims, the U. S. Customs Court and the U. 8. Court of Customs and Patent Appeals into a single court. But under the surface the plan has in it one very serious implication. For years utilities, powerful corporations and other interested persons have sought to cripple the Federal Trade Commission. This commission is the one body in Washington which has remained steadfast in its war on predatory bigness. Even under the NRA, when the antitrust laws -7ere junked, the Federal Trade Commission pressed its attack ceaselessly. Under the Coolidge Administration the Attorney General's office evolved a scheme to cripple this commission. The plan was based on the criticism that the commission acted both as prosecutor and judge; that therefore its investigational and judicial functions should be separated. The argument is " | specious at best. Every public officer confronted with taking a

° | course of action is & prosecutor and bil,

judge. He must look into the facts and decide on a course. If this plan had been adopted the commission would have been reduced to the futility of the present Department of Justice in the attack on trusts and illegal combinations.

The Logan bill will accomplish | Ing

this plan. To the new court will be transferred the administrative funetions of the Federal Trade Commission. The commission will remain, if at all, as a mere investigating body with no power to act. And what kind of court will take over the commission's so-called judicial powers? A court which will be a combination of five courts and which will have 40 judges. Worst of all, however, this court will be made up of the existing persennel of those five courts. And what manner of men are they? The great majority are appointees of the Coolidge, Harding, Hoover days. The present Administration has named but nine out of the 40 men now sitting in these courts. An examination of the 40 men reveals that 31 out of the 40 members of the new court would be conservatives appointed under preceding Republican Administrations. To such a court would the vital functions of the Federal Trade Commission be transferred. It is inconceivable that such a measure will get by a liberal and progressive Congress. It is quite | On possible that Senator Logan has not weighed ait

fore he made a new life for himself on the golf links among the movie stars of Hollywood. The man whose strength and incredible golfing ability made him a legend on the West Coast came back to a quiet village in the Adirondacks where seven years ago he was known as Laverne Moore, son of a steel worker. Pending against him in the County Court here is a charge that he and three companions robbed Kin Hanna's roadhouse Aug. 4, 1930, severely beat an elderly man and escaped with $800.

Freddie's Pay Set at $98,000, So He Gets to Spend $1 Weekly

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 19 (U. P.).—Freddie Bartholomew's

salary was

doubled today, raised to $08,000 a year, and he was scampering around his movie studio celebrating his new fortune.

But fortune to him meant that his producer, Louis B. Mayer, had raised his spending money ailowance from 5 cents a day to $1 weekly, and that was why he celebrated. The movies’ 14-year-old “Little Lord Fauntleroy” waved his first week's banknote, the first one he ever had to spend, and he was estimating what it would buy in the way of ice cream and trinkets, He had only a vague idea of the settlement arranged between Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studio and his guardian aunt, Miss Millicent Bartholomew, over his salary, although he spent half a day in the courtroom hearing it argued yesterday. His deal with Mr. Mayer for his spending money was a ‘personal cointract” not involved in the salary dispute. In court, Freddie fidgeted while Judge Clement L. Shinn approved the contract and ended a long legal fight between the studio and Miss Bartholomew. The new contract pays Freddie $2000 weekly for 40 weeks a year, and $3000 weekly ior six weeks while he is on a personal appearance tour. The old contract paid $1100 for 40 weeks a year. Freddie sat in the big witness chair and piped to the Judge in Oxford accent that he was “completely satisfied” with the new are

rangement. He also remarked that he can do “very easily” without any more trips to court. The Judge sympathized. Freddie's hopes for no more trips to court were dimmed, however, by the arrival in Hollywood of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Bartholomew, from London. They are here to prepare for a hearing next month on a court action brought to void the aunt's adoption of Freddie. They said she promised to return the boy to them in six months. Expressing satisfaction over Freddie's fatter salary, they intimated that his two sisters, Eileen, 17, and Hilda, 15, may try for the Hollywood films too. The sisters, supported from Freddie's earnings, are in a convent in Europe.

$10,900,000 LIKELY FOR STATE FARMERS

AAA Adjusts Payments to Maximum.

Times Special WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.—Indiana farmers will receive more than $10,500,000 in Fetueral benefit payements this year as a result of the decision to pay the maximum under the Soil Conservation Act, it was estimated by officials here today. The estimate for the state was based on the 1936 payment of $10,578,143, the Agricultural Adjuste ment Administration announced. AAA has ruled that the 10 per cent adjustment in payments ale lowed under the present act will be meade upward instead of downward, thus giving all those participating in the conservation program the maximum benefits. With the same number participating as in 1936, the payments should be slightly higher than last year, they said.
