WAR INVOLVING U. S. EXPECTED,

Bell Veteran

DR. WICKS SAYS

Rotary Speaker Tells of Armies Being Built Up Overseas.

I ————————

Europeans are convinced that war is inevitable and that the people of this country will be involved, Dr. Frank S. C. Wicks, All-Souls Unitarian pastor, told the Indianapolis Rotary Club today.

ins j I Describing his recent tour of Eu- |

rope, he said, “Everywhere is fear | countries, the armed forces outnumber those |

and suspicion. In some of the World War.” “The skies darken with war clouds,” Dr. Wicks said. “Each nation is looking at the others with fear and suspicion. France and Italy today have larger armies than before the World War.” He explained that great armies are being developed in Germany and that he found 19,000 men workIng on munitions in Bristol alone.

War May Be Postponed

“I was told the effect would be a postponement of war, although they said war was inevitable,” Dr. Wicks said. “Each said: ‘You will be in it.” I saw the necessity for England protecting herself, for it would be easy to starve the country in a few months. She must keep open the way to India—and strong navy, “The sinking of British and Russian merchantment may precipitate war.” Dr. Wicks then described a more peaceful scene, the trip through Sweden, where he reported finding a happy contented people. He told of the unique setup—a combination of private capital, state ownership and co-operation. The pastor said the Rotary has

been abolished in Germany on the |

ground that it is international, admits Jews and Masons. He pointed out Rotarians were welcomed everywhere but there and in Russia,

PENNSYLVANIA ST. TRUCK BAN IS POSTPONED

Precedent Feared by City Council Members as Vote Is Taken.

Trucks still may use Pennsylvania St. between 38th and 71st Sts. as a | means of entering the city from the | north. | The City Council deferred action ‘on a proposed ordinance prohibiting them from the street although some | members argued that the temporary | northeastern route is adequate until | a belt highway can be built. | Discussion on the proposed ordi- | nance centered around whether its passage would establish a precedent for banning them from other streets. Argues for Proposal

John Schumacher, Republican member, argued in favor of the ban. The Committee on Public Safety recommended action be deferred. “Yes, and the ordinance probably will be held until the next Council is elected,” Mr. Schumacher replied. The Council ordered the City Lagal Department to draw up an ordiance zoning against double houses an area including the east

|side of Central Ave. between 64th

LAWS 10 OFFICIALS which Miss Bertha Denhardt, Bowl-

Finney Tells License Branch Heads of Changes.

Frank Finney, Auto License Bu- | reau director, today explained Indi- | ana’s new drivers’ license and truck | weight tax laws to 14 branch license station managers at a meeting in| the Claypool Hotel. The central bureau has published a pamphlet on these statutes, passed | by the 1937 Legislature. Purpose of the new drivers’ license provisions, Mr. Finney said, Is to give State authorities a closer check on accident records of all drivers. State safety officials hope to give instructions to drivers with accident records in order to forestall possible future tragedies. Closer supervision is to be maintained over per-

sons applying for their first licenses. | A similar meeting 1s to be held! Mr. Finney and members |

tomorrow. of his staff then are to hold meetings with branch managers in more distant sections of the State. Clarifying the truck weight tax law, Attorney General Omer S. Jackson today held that the Auto License Department has the right to make rules for issuance of duplicate weight tax plates to replace those lost. Mr. Jackson also held that the department could sell plates in branch offices if a service fee of 25 cents is charged.

PAIR IS ACCUSED OF PROPERTY SWINDLE

‘Released Under Bond as Jury Begins Inquiry.

A man and a woman today had been released under bonds on | charges of forgery while the Marion County Grand Jury investigated an alleged real estate swindle.

Henry O. Goett, Grand Jury Deputy Prosecutor, said the investigation began a week ago after another man, involved in the deal, took his own life in the county jail.

The couple is said to have forged a deed in the name of a Lafayette couple to property on Carroliton Ave. valued at $9000, according to Mr. Goett. The Lafayette pair was in Washington, D. C., at the time. ‘The vroperty was sold to an Indianapolis couple for $3000 through a local real estate firm. A certified check for $1500, half the sale price, was found on the man in the jail. He aided in the swindle, Mr. Goett said, by representing himself as the son of the property owners, The man now dead had been arrested on a Probate Court citation in connection with another real estate swindle, Mr. Goett said. The remainder of the money paid in the transaction allegedly went to the couple now under arrest.
