THURSDAY, JUNE 5, ROBBER CHASED FROM BEDROOM WITHS$130 L00T

Victim Discovers Intruder; Trolley Robbery Clues Found.

A burglar, discovered by Harry Kempler, of 1112 N. Temple Ave. in the bedroom of his home early today, escaped with $130 and a camera. Mr. Kempler, proprietor of Kemp's Tavern, 19th St. and College Ave., told police he was awakened by a noise in his room and saw the man searching his trousers. The intruder fled through an open dining room window and escaped in a car parked at the curb when he was observed. The money was the tavern receipts for yesterday, Mr. Kempler said.

Trolley Clues Found

An empty money changer and billfold, taken last Friday by a masked bandit who fired two shots in holding up a trackless trolley operator at the end of the S. Meridian St. line, were found today four miles from the scene by Mrs. Edith Kriner, R. R. 1, Box 76, in a woods at Eppler Ave. and S. East St. The bandit, masked with a handkerchief, ordered John W. Hudson, 49, of 1354 Olive St., to open the trolley door and then fired two shots in the air when Hudson refused. Two Negro women who leaped on the runningboard of his ‘moving car escaped with $20, Rex Hine, 21, of Lebanon, told police today. He said he was driving slowly in the 200 block of W. Michigan St. One woman seized his billfold, removed the contents. They then jumped from the car, separated and escaped.

Furniture Store Entered

The J. B. Flanagan Furniture Co. at 118 W. 30th St. was entered last night, it was reported by Horatio Leaman, of 3011 Kenwood Ave, night watchman, who said he found the door open and the lock hanging loose. An investigation to determine the loss was to be made. A rifle marksman who parked his car and shot out a street light at the corner of 9th and New Jersey Sts., was sought by police today. A resident of the neighborhood said three men driving south on New Jersey St. stopped on the corner. One got out and shot the light. Burglars took cigarets valued at -$65 from the Standard Grocery Co., at 2618 W. 16th St., Charles Lightner, manager, reported to police today.

COLORED ORPHANS HOME BUDGET UP

Increase Will Be Asked for Operation.

An increase over its present ap‘propriation is to be asked to operate the Colored Orphans’ Home next year, Dow W. Vorhies, president of the County Commissioners, said today. He said he would ask the same amount for the orphans’ home for 1939 as is now required by the County Welfare Department for operation of the Guardians’ Home. The 1938 budget for the Orphans’ Home is $50,065; the Commissioners asked $60,320. In 1936, th- last year the Commissioners operated “the Guardians’ Home, it was $69,550, including $32,000 to support children in private homes, and $15,000 for mothers’ allowances. Two items of the 1938 County Welfare Department budget for the Guardians’ Home nearly equal that sum, Mr. Vorhies said. Salaries are listed at $19,092, and operating ex‘penses at $42,677, totaling $61,769. Budgets must be submitted by -July 1 for checking by the County Council and review by the County Tax Adjustment Board.

116 AWARDED LAW SCHOOL DIPLOMAS

One hundred and sixteen graduates of Indiana Law School last night were awarded diplomas at commencement exercises at the Columbia Club. Hilton U. Brown, vice president of the board of trustees, awarded the degrees. Federal Judge Robert C. Baltzell made the commencement address. James M. Ogden, former State Attorney General and school president, presided. Dr. Logan Hall, Meridian Street M. E. Church pas“tor, delivered the invocation. Judge Baltzell outlined the limits of the Court’s powers. “The Court is not the legislative branch of government and it should not seek to invade the provinces of that branch,” he asserted. “It has no constituency to represent as does the legislative branch.” He told the graduates “the administrative method is steadily superseding the litigation method in settlement of taxation and labor disputes.”

Pan-American Atlantic clipper took off from Elliott Bay, off Seattle, for a 38-minute flight, while the new Douglas DC-4, a land plane, was kept in the air for an hour and 16 minutes during a test at Santa Monica. Edmund T. Allen of New York, pilot of the T4-passenger flying boat, said that the results of his test were even better than he had expected. “The Clipper handled nicely and I'm very satisfied,” he said. “We never had the plane at full throttle while we were in the air.” Maj. Carl Cover, vice president and chief test pilot for Douglas Aircraft Corp., said that his company’s plane needed only minor adjustments before it would be ready for service. “It lived up to every expectation in every way,” he said.

Has Four Motors

The Boeing plane was built to be used either to inaugurate PanAmerican trans-Atlantic service or on other oceanic flights. Six other planes of the same type are under construction. The craft has four motors, is 109 feet long and 152 feet wide from one wing tip to the other, weighs 82,500 pounds and will accomodate 40 passengers on a 4000-mile trip. Seventyfour passengers can be accomodated easily where berths are not necessary. The Boeing is the first plane to be built with two complete decks. Companionways through the wings lead to the engines. There are 10 passenger compartments, each furnished elaborately. Yesterday Mr. Allen started the Clipper skimming along the bay at 80 miles an hour. After a run of some 2000 feet, the plane left the water. A wing plate which was damaged when the plane struck a log in an earlier test run along the water had been repaired, and the plane was flying evenly as it rose into the air.

Test Time Extended

The pilot circled the plane several times, covering an area of approximately 75 miles before he landed it at Lake Washington. Visibility was poor and he said he was forced to fly almost blind much of the time. Immediately after the flight was

FATHERS REFUSE TO

HORSEWHIP YOUTHS

FITCHBURG, Mass, June 9 (U.

P).—~Two boys were under indeterminate sentences in Shirley Industrial School today after their fathers refused to carry out an 84-year-old judge's suggestion that they be horsewhipped for thievery. Harry J. Woodworth, father of 16-year-old Harold Woodworth, and Joseph Allen, father of 15-year-old William Allen, appealed and the boys were released on $300 bail each pending superior court trial.

District Judge Thomas F. Gallagher imposed the sentences after adjudging the boys guilty of being delinquent children. He made no reference to the charge of stealing 12 pounds of wire from the Boston & Maine Railroad, the allegation which on May 18 caused him to suggest that they be horsewhipped by their fathers in the police headquarters basement.

GRILL WOMAN ON CHARGES OF HARLAN ‘LURE’

Witness Says She Refused $100 to Entice Union Organizers Away.

LONDON, Ky. June 9 (U. P.).— Defense counsel waged a withering cross examination today against a tall, slender brunet who testified Harlan County deputy sheriffs offered her $100 for every union organizer she lured to where they could “catch em.” Mrs. Martha Howard, a Government witness in the Harlan coal conspiracy trial, admitted she had lived with two men out of wedlock and once had been placed in Harlan jail on a charge of intoxication. She gave damaging testimony yesterday against the 44 individuals and 19 coal corporations on trial on charges of conspiracy to violate the Wagner Labor Relations Act. Mrs. Howard said John Hickey, one of the deputy sheriffs on trial, gave her the license numbers of automobiles owned by organizers for

the United Mine Workers, and said | he would pay her $100 for every! man she lured far enough away | to |

town for the deputies She rejected the offer,

from “catch.” she said. “Mr. Hickey gave me a list of the automobile licenses of the organizers,” Mrs. Howard said, “and said he would arrange for me to meet them and take them out to dance somewhere, He said that when we got to the dance hall I was to get out and then he said ‘I'll catch 'em.’ Mr. Hickey told me there would be $100 waiting for me at the Sheriff's office for cvery organizer I helped him catch.” “Did you accept Hickey's offer?” asked Brien McMahon, Assistant U. S. Attorney General. “No, sir, I didn’t take it,” Mrs. Howard replied. Then there was another time that Mrs. Howard told about—the night in February, 1937, when Bennett Musick, son of a union organizer was killed by bullets fired into the Musick home. She said she was in a restaurant with her husband and that three of the deputies on trial —George Lee, Frank White and Al-

len Bowlin—came in and sat down at the same booth with the Howards and “laid their guns on the table.” “They took a drink or two,” Mrs. Howard said, “and kept talking about going up to see old man Musick. THen Merle Middletoy (another deputy on trial) walked in and said ‘Let's go.” They all went out.”

Musicks to Testify

Later today members of the Musick family will have a chance to pick up the story where Mrs. Howard left it, when the Government calls them as witnesses. Marshall Musick, a union organizer and head of the family, was not at home on the night his son was killed. He had been warned to get out of town so he went across the Harlan County line to Pineville. He is known in Harlan County as “Preacher” Musick because, in addition to his union work, he is a minister. - The night of the killing was not the first time an attempt had been made on “Preacher Musick’s life, Government witnesses testified yesterday. Most important of them was Ira M. Hatcher, a miner. He said that on Jan. 31, 1937, he saw Mr. Musick and Mrs. Musick walking along a railroad track. They disappeared around a bend, Mr. Hatcher testified, and then the sound of shots was heard. Indicative of the nonchalant way in which

shooting 1s ‘regarded in Harlan County was Mr. Hatcher's statement that the first thought that occurred to him and his companfons was not whether the Musicks had been wounded but what caliber guns had been used in the shooting.
