THE INDIANA

pital Guild Members.

By WILLIAM L. FORTUNE

The lives of 64 babies have been aided since a milk-freezing process was established at the City Hospital by the St. Margaret's Hospital Guild, members announced today. The laboratory, one of 12 in the | country, was installed Nov. 15 under | the direction of Dr. Frances T. | Brown, pediatrician. The Guild collects mother’s milk, pasteurizes it and then freezes it into wafer-like forms for consumption by babies. Last May the Guild established a “Mothers’ Milk Station” at the hospital to furnish premature babies and those whose mothers had no milk supply of their own with mothers’ milk instead of bottled. Milk Is Frozen

Later, experiments were begun to furnish a reserve supply of milk by freezing the surplus. The milk is taken irom the mothers by an electrical aevice, pasteurized and poured into trays containing small noles and surrounded by ary ice. When it is ready to be used, the trays are lutea irom the ary ice ana placed in a refrigerator where the temperature is adjusted to a normal freezing stage, Dr. Brown explained. Then they are removed and melted into liquid form and pasteurized again before consumption. “If we have an increased demand, we will have to go out and get more mothers,” she added, “but we are not handicapped by our equipment.” Members of the Guild committee in charge of the work include: Mrs. Lewis E. Gausepohl, chairman; Mrs. Willis E. Kuhn, assistant chairman; Mrs. Clara Stutz, Mrs. Evanson Earp, Mrs. J. D. Grisbaum, Mrs. Gayle B. Wolfe, Mrs. Wilbur C. Patterson and Mrs. Donaldson G. Trone. Mrs. G. I. Seybert is president of the Guild. Importance Stressed

Dr. Brown said: “I can’t express the importance of it. The smaller the babies are, the more likely they are to live if they have mothers’ milk. Tt has never before been accessible in Indianapolis.” Dr. Herman G. Morgan, Health Board secretary, commented: “It is a very worthy project and the Guild is to be commended for this additional project. There is a very great need for this service in Indianapolis and it should result in conserving infant life because there are cases of premature infants and difficult feeding cases that thrive on nothing so much as mothers’ milk.” Mrs. Trone said the nearest similar station was one in Detroit. 60 Members in Guild

At its last meeting, the Guild appropriated an extra $1000 for the laboratory and decided to employ a regular trained nurse for full-time work. _ Miss Ann Meredith, baby ward supervisor at the City Hospital, has been in charge of the nursing division of the laboratory, and Dr. Brown in charge of the medical side. St. Margaret's Hospital Guild was organized in 1907 and now includes 60 members. Their chief interest is in children’s work at the City Hospital where they conduct, in cooperation with the hospital, an occupational therapy department.

PREPARES INDEX OF DUNN WORKS

Noted Indiana Historian Was Authority on Miami Indian Language.

An index of the works of Jacob Piatt Dunn, noted Indiana historian and an authority on the Miami Indian language, has been prepared by the Indiana Historical Society. In Volume One, Number Two, of the Prehistory Research Series, Miss Caroline Dunn of the State Library gave a brief biography of her father, who died in 1924, and listed his manuscript of Indian material in the Library. Christopher B. Coleman, Historical Society secretary who wrote the preface to the booklet, said: “The late Jacob Piatt Dunn was one of the four or five best known Indiana historians. He spent much of his time for many years studying Indian material, and left in manuscript the fullest record we have of the language of the Miami tribe which for a long time occupied most of Indiana. “His ‘True Indian Stories’ is one of the best popular books about the Indians. Shortly after his death his manuscripts were acquired by the Indiana Historical Bureau and are now in the State Library.”

AUTO CARD HOLDERS FLAYED BY BOBBITT,

‘Racket, G. 0. P. Head Charges at Rally Here.

Sale of automobile registration card holders as required by Indiana law is a “racket,” Arch N. Bobbitt, Republican State Chairman, had charged today. “That there is a profitable racket in this is as transparent as the container itself,” Mr. Bobbitt tola members of the First and Second Ward Republican Club last night. Referring to a recent statement by Prosecutor Herbert M. Spencer that he may not attempt to enforce the windshield sticker regulation, Mr. Bobbitt said: “He even points out that to drive Indiana cars with these obstructions on the windshields into Ohio and Kentucky would violate their laws forbidding stickers or other obstructions on the windshields. Thus the Indiana motorist is placed between the devil and the deep blue sea in neighboring states.”

TELEPHONE INCOME REACHES HIGH PEAK

NEW YORK, Jan. 15 (U.

PRINTERS UNION LEADER DENIES CLASHWITHG.L0.

Reported Change in Attitude Due to Misinterpretation Of Article, He Says.

Charles P. Howard, International Typographical Union president and Committee for Industrial Organization secretary, today had denied published reports that he had changed his attitude toward the C.1.0. The reports, originating in New York, were taken from an article he wrote for the magazine “Printing,” and he said his article was “completely misinterpreted.” He so wired John Lewis, C. I. O. chairman. Mr. Howard said that on the contrary, there had been certain changes in fundamental policy of the American Federation of Labor, with which I. T. U. is affiliated, that would require I. T. U. protest even if there was no C. I. O.

Change in Policy

Mr. Howard said the recent A. F. of L. convention tried to center all control and authority over national and international unions in | the hands of the Executive Com- | mittee and the A. F. of L. conven- | tion, which, he said, would have been a drastic change in fundamental policy established 50 years ago. “That would mean,” he said, “that the Executive Committee could step into any national or international affiliated union, if it did not like the policy of that organization, and take control of its finances, as the A. F. of L. now can take over control of central labor organizations and state federations of labor. “The I. T. U. has six or seven million dollars invested in bonds and has property interests and we don’t propose to allow the A. F. of L. to step in and take control of them.

A. F, of L. Terms Too High

“Of course labor wants peace. The C. I. O. wants peace, but it can’t afford the A. F. of L. terms. Those terms would have meant that 22 of the 32 national and international unions that now compose the C. I. O. would be left high and dry to enter the A. F. of L. only through antagonistic organizations, and thus destroy themselves.” Mr. Howard made it clear that it was not now and never had been the intention of the C. I. O. to organize those industries which already had been organized on a craft union basis.

ASK SELF-IMPOSED RADIO CENSORSHIP

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15 (U. P)). —A reprimand by the Federal Communications Commission of the National Broadcasting Company’s “Adam and Eve” skit featuring Mae West drew from Congressmen today suggestions of a self-imposed censorship by the radio industry. Pointing to the movie industry as an example, Rep. Thomas O'Malley (D. Wis) proposed that the radio industry take similar steps. “That would be a splendid idea,” Rep. Lawrence Connery (D. Mass.) said, “but the Federal Communications Commission claims it does not have authority to force such action.”

F.D. R. Disrupts Conciliation By New Deal, Clapper Says

Carefully Extended Olive Branch Seen Shattered By Attack on All Holding Companies.

By RAYMOND CLAPPER Times Special Writer ASHINGTON, Jan. 15.—In the midst of a series of business conferences arranged for the purpose of restoring confidence and developing mutual understanding, President Roosevelt pauses for station announcement to tell the world that all holding companies in all

industries must go.

It is another instance of curbstone barking at the wrong time.

Those Presidential advisers who felt that it was imperative for Roosevelt to establish more friendly relations with the business community were alarmed at the effect of the recent speeches by Secretary of Interior Ickes and Assistant Attorney General Robert Jackson. Indeed, Mr. Roosevelt himself was much disturbed at the almost universal criticism. He decided to cast his annual message in conciliatory terms. After the annual message was delivered, advisers of the olivebranch school urged him to continue that tone in his Jackson Day speech which was scheduled for a few nights later. They cited to him the favorable reaction which followed his annual message and persuaded him to make his open-door offer in the Jackson Day speech in order to encourage the better feeling that had begun to develop. Furthermore, they persuaded Mr. Roosevelt to see a group of his most bitter critics among the economic royalists and brought about the White House invitations .to Messrs. Sloan, Weir, Chester Colby, Clement, and Lewis Brown. That conference ran smoothly and then it was announced that the Business Advisory Council, composed of 50 business headliners, would confer with the President next week. Everything was rolling along nicely. It was arranged also that Thomas Lamont, Owen Young, John L. Lewis and two former braintrusters, Charles Tausig and A. A. Berle, should come in and absorb some of the Presidential charm. ” ” ” UST about an hour before these gentlemen, brimming with pleasant greetings, arrived at the White House door, the President broke loose. At his press conference he set out to answer a memorandum on the utilities question which had been submitted last November by Wendell Willkie. For a while the President went along explaining in careful detail the points to which he took exception. Eventually he reached the qustion of holding companies and you could feel his temperature go up. He mentioned that six hundred million controls three billion dollars of utilities capital. He was warms=ing up very fast now. That control of the utilities dog by the four inches of tail couldn't go on. Then reporters edged in with questions. Was the President leading up to the elimination of all holding companies? Yes, he was. Would he eliminate holding companies of the first degree— that is, those directly over operating companies? Yes, he would. Would the President apply that to other lines of industry? Yes. Bang. Banks were a good illustration. No need of holding companies for banks, etc. Reporters, goggle-eyed, pressed for details. Would legislation be proposed? The President didn't know. Would the taxing power be used? The President didn't know. Are you amputating the four inches of tail? Here the low mutter of Correspondent Paul Leach of the Chicago Daily News was heard: “He's cutting off the tail right behind the ears.”

2 o 2

HAT’S all there was. Some say Mr. Roosevelt just got wound up and couldn’t stop, that it was all casual, off-hand, and that he hasn’t the faintest idea what he intends to do about holding companies. Others think he was giving warning of legislation soon to come. I was chiefly reminded of the Mad Hatter’s tea party. One thing is certain. Businessmen, not only the 4 per cent but most of the 96 per cent, instead of turning their energies toward getting business, will now sit down and begin worrying all over again.

COAL OPERATOR KILLED Times Special PETERSBURG, Jan. 15.—Funeral arrangements were being made today for William C.

PRIVATE SCHOOL SUBSIDIES FROM U.S. ARE FLAYED

Wayne Pastor Tells DePauw Conference Aid Dangerous.

Ft.

Times Special GREENCASTLE, Jan. 15.—Assaile ing Federal subsidy of private edu= cational institutions as “inherently dangerous” and warning that proposed state tax levies on such schools are short-sighted, the Rev. George W. Allison, Ft. Wayne Pres= byterian pastor, today had told the DePauw University educational cone ference that the denominational col= lege's most serious present problem is financial.

Schools Vary Little

“Church colleges of liberal arts tend to perpetuate the denominations that support them,” he said. “But today, with the decrease of ecclesiastical differences, there is no essential difference between a Methodist college, for example and a Presbyterian school. “The survival and success of Christian institutions are largely in the hands of the group of Chris tins who have had, or will have, advantages of an education in lib eral arts. We rely upon you to put a God-centered hypothesis into the very heart of education.”

Deeper Meaning Needed

The Rev. Amos Thornburg, Wile mette, Ill, told delegates that “the broadening of life’s horizons by ine tellectual development must be ace companied by sufficient meaning to made it significant, if a richer, fuller life is to be attained.” In many instances, man’s mental development has falied to bring him the deeper meaning necessary to make life significant and has brought destruction to him, the Rev, Mr. Thornburg said. Following the Rev. Thornburg's address, a discussion was led by four panel speakers—the Rev. Bernard Woellner, West Baden College; the Rev. Norbert Talbott, Jeffersonville; the Rev. William Grant Seaman, Athens, O.,, and the Rev. M. V, Oggel, Crawfordsville.
