Renewed Confidence Is Held by Business Heads, Survey Shows

Outlook Better for Trade During Last Quarter ofl B : Year, Consumers Goods Industries Committee Learns; Inventories Reduced.

9

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (U. P.).—A generally better feeling is noted among executives of industries which ordinarily are among the first to feel or sense any change in public mood, according to a survey re-

leased today by George A.

Sloan,

Consumer Goods Industries Com-

mittee chairman. Reports from leaders in various lines, Mr. Sloan said, “reflect an eagerness on the part of business to- find justification for renewed confidence and to discern the signs for the way up and out. “However, they also show the delicacy of the situation as it still exists. They point to some definite improvements in demand and production and more especially in morale. By ard large these reports present evidence of hope and expectation rather than any material realization.” Following is some of the comment: : C. C. CARLTON, Automotive Parts & Equipment Manufacturers, and Motor Wheel Corp, President: “Better feeling and general improvement in business conditions throughout the country has led to revision of individual plant forecasts for 1939 models. These now vary from 10 to 30 per cent increases over 1938.”

Predicts Good Last Quarter

CLARENCE FRANCIS, General Foods Corp. President: “Believe last half of year—particularly last quarter—will give a fairly good account of itself.” CLAUDIUS T. MURCHISON, Cotton-Textile Institute President: “Outlook improved. Current situation as regards unfilled orders, inventories and prices, represents quite a step forward from the picture a few months ago.” ARTHUR BESSE, National Association of Wool Manufacturers President: “Definite improvement in recent weeks but unable to find indication that improvement is to be attributed to actual consumer demand.” G. H. CONZE, Susquehanna Silk Mills President: “Initial budgets for buying of fall merchandise have increased 25 per cent over what was planned two months ago by all types of buyers.” C. W. DALL, National Rayon Weavers Association President: “Substantial increase in orders during the first two weeks in July for staples and linings. Treemndous inquiry indicating wide distribution for fall.”

Hoosiery Outlook Better

EARL CONSTANTINE, National Association of Hosiery Manufacturers President: “We anticipate shipments for 1938 will exceed 1936, which we regard as measuring stick for gauging business. 1936 was best year since 1929.” J. F. M’'ELWAIN, President of J. PF." McElwain Co. (Shoes): “Feeling among merchants less pessimistic. Looking forward to an improvement for industry as a whole during next six months.” ERNEST T. TRIGG, National Paint, Varnish & Lacquer Association President: “Much better feeling throughout industry although no actual improvement in sales. Contemplate better fall business.” J. D. A. MORROW, Pittsburgh Coal Co. President: “No noticeable improvement in bituminous coal. Reasonable to. expect normal seasonal increase this fall.” HERBERT GUTTERSON, Institute of Carpet Manufacturers of America Pres’ 't: “Greater ccenfidence that improved business conditions are ahead.” J. H. WILLIAMS, president of J. H. Williams & Co. (drop forgings): “While thus far the improvement with us is more sentimental than actual, we presume that reduction of inventories, together with the better sentiment engendered by the improvement in the stock market, will probably make for.generally improved business this fall, after maintaining present levels during the balance of the summer.” W. N. WATSON, Manufacturing Chemists Association secretary: “We expect a gradual improvement this summer compared with the low of late spring and early summer. We also expect an increased volume of business in the fall.” CHARLES W. BOYCE, ‘American Paper and Pulp Association execu-

tive secretary: “We expect increase in production of paper during last half of this year—extent dependent

upon the course of general business.” AXTELL

J. BYLES, American Petroleum Institute president: “Petroleum industry continues to make steady progress in solving its problems, many of which were brought about by the past year’s low level of business activity. Demand for cur principal product, gasoline, still running slightly ahead of corresponding periods 1937.” HAROLD BOESCHENSTEIN, Owens-Illinois Glass Co.: “Business sentiment very much better. Reports and inquiries from practically all sections indicate expectation of substantially improved fall business.”

BOARD ORDERS PAVING STOPPED

La Salle St. Area Residents Protest Names Taken From Petition.

The Works Board today ordered stopped the paving of the first alley east of LaSalle St. between _Roosevelt Ave. and 25th St. after more than a dozen property owners of the area protested their names had been stricken from a remonstrance petition.

2 CAMP COUNSELORS BURNED TO DEATH

Two From City Sought to Save Trapped Boys.

EAST HEBRON; N. H, Aug. 10 (U. P.).—Trapped in their beds, two young counselors of Camp Mowglis were killed early today when fire destroyed the assembly hall at the old-established boys’ camp on the shore of New Found Lake.

The victims were Robert Blake, 17, Ardmore, Pa., and Richard Hooper, 16, Manchester, Mass. From their sleeping quarters in surrounding cabins, 103 boys spending the summer at the camp were led to safety. ~ Camp Owner-director A. F. Elwell and Robert H. Iglehart, Indianapolis, camp ~ attache, attempted to recue the trapped boys but the assembly hall, a 60-by-30-foot building, was a mass of flames by the time they reached it.

WALL FALLS, KILLS 1, BURIES 2 OTHERS

CLEVELAND, Aug. 10 (U. P.).— The brick wall of a factory building, weakened recently by fire, collapsed today, killing one woman and burying at least two others in the ruins. Several others were injured. The cave-in occurred at the Eaton Service Co., unoccupied since a fire two weeks ago. The identity of the woman victim was not known immediately, nor were the names of those buried. One was believed to be a small child.

‘Ready for War,’

Soviet Paper Says

MOSCOW, Aug. 10 (U. P.).—The new Supreme Soviet of the U. S. S. R. (Russian parliament) began its second session’ today in a militant atmosphere sharpened. by fresh press attacks on Japan. Delegates of the 1} Union republics were warned by the newspaper Pravda, Communist Party organ, to keep Russia's powder dry. “The second session of the Supreme Soviet begins in an extremely responsible moment,” Pravda said. “We do not want war, but we are ready for war. The international situation obliges us to keep our powder dry. “The Japanese militarists, who attempted to draw Japan into war with the U. S. S. R., made an attack upon Soviet territory. - The Japanese militarists have received an edifying lesson from the glorious Red Army.” As the Supreme Soviet “met, Mamoru Shigemitsu, Japanese Ambassador, announc¢ed that Japan desires to end the fighting on the frontier and to establish a commission to decide the proper border line. He added that the commission could hardly be established until the present fighting was stopped, and indicated that he weuld make a new proposal to that end in his next conversation with Foreign Commisrar Maxim Litvinov. “The Japanese proposals which I made previously to Commissar Litvinov are the only reasonable solution of the Far Eastern situation,” he commented.

Japanese Lines on Yangtze Under Strain

SHANGHAI, Aug. 10 (U. P).— Chinese military spokesmen said today that Japanese Army lines on the north bank of the Yangtze River below Hankow were wavering under a reinforced Chinese drive. Pour thousand Japanese troops were barricaded in the ruins of Hwangmei, on the north bank of the river, 125 miles above Anking, after a severe engagement in flood waters, the Chinese said. Chinese troops fought to the heights overlooking the city. There was a foot of water in the streets of Hwangmei and the Chinese said

Dispatches said that tremendous Chinese reinforcements had arrived. on the front both north and south of the Yangtze since the new Rus-sian-Japanese incidents on the Siberian frontier, while many Japanese troops had been withdrawn, presumably to be sent north... In many sections north of the Yangtze, the Chinese claimed, the Japanese were driven back. A Chinese communique admitted: that Japanese warships were moving up river west of Kiukiang. Seven were said to have passed Liyanghu.. The Chinese said they sank one of them.

Runciman to Sit In

On Czech Negotiations

PRAHA, Aug. 10 (U. P.).—Sudeten German leaders prepared a “martyr” funeral today for Wenzel Bayerle, a party ‘member, who was stabbed to death in a bar-room fight, as the latest symbol of their complaints against the Czechs. ‘Coincidently arrangements were made for the first direct Degajla tions between the Ei Sudeten Party leaders, - count Runciman, British vers ment “adviser,” probably sitting in as mediator.

The prospect of negotiations, with |

Viscount Runciman’s co-operation, was so heartening that despite the anger roused by Heir Bayerle’s death, the mercurial . minorities atmosphere seemed to have improved materially.

First Meeting Today

Premier Milan Hodza hoped to have a first meeting with the German minority leaders late today. Plans to martyrize Bayerle as a symbol of “oppression” were not affected by the fact that his killer was alleged to be Franz Hoiden, an Austrian and hence a German citizen, who had taken refuge in Czechoslovakia. Four Sudten Party leaders held a conference yesterday with Viscount Runciman, outlining their arguments. They left him briefs containing their side of the minorities dispute. Viscount Runciman earlier had held a conference with Premier Hodza, discussing arrangements for the negotiations. Viscount Runciman was - said to be encouraged over the situation.

2-DAY VISIT T0 HEAVEN’ ENDS

1 Couldnt Have a Better Neighbor,” Leader Says Of Roosevelt.

ies

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (U. P.)— Father Divine and 2500 of his “angels,” gorged to the ears on water melon and fried chicken, returned today from a two-day excursion up the Hudson River to the “promised land,” opposite the Hyde Park home of President Roosevelt. After putting ashore here, Father Divine paused to get his land legs

[back before waddling to his $20,000,

10-passenger Duesenberg. While five of his chosen female archangels

were taking their seats, somebody

asked him what he thought about President Roosevelt and he replied: “Well, I couldn't hawe a better neighbor.” One of the angels said “peace, it’s wonderful,” and they rolled away. Prom other sources it was learned, that the excursionists had the “promised land” strictly to themselves. Howland Spencer, neighbor and political dissenter of Mr. Roose-

‘'velt, who sold his ancestral estate,

Krum Elbow, to the Negroes but retained living quarters there for himself, was away when the two boatloads of cult members came. All members. of the Roosevelt family also: were absent from the family

d state, Qirectly across the Hiver.

‘Poughkeepsie, N.° Y. Mrs. Fk ‘D. Roosevelt referred to the excursion in a jocular vein when asked for comment. “Krum Elbow? Is that the place that was sold across the river?” she asked. “No, I couldn't see them because I stay in the cottage when my husband is in Washington.” From the «Roosevelt's cottage Krum Elbow is not visible.

1S INDICATED IN COUNTY BUDGET

Commissioners Reminded of | One-Cent Levy Required

For Flood Control.

The 1939 Marion County Budget proposals; already far above the 1938 budget, may go still higher, County officials learned today.

County Commissioners were re-

‘minded today by the City Controller

that under the law creating the Flood Control-Commission, they (the County Commissioners) are required to levy one cent for flood centrol purposes. This item had been omitted in the 1939 County budget proposal announced last week. Commissioner Dow Vorhies said he was opposed to the levy, which would raise about $61,000, because

the County has no jurisdiction over |

the Flood Control Commission. Ruling Up fo Auditor

It will be up fo the County Auditor, Mr. Vorhies said, to determine if there still is time legally to budget ‘this item. The County’s original budget proposals call for increases which would require a possible 7-cent boost in the 1939 County levy. Of this boost, 2.2 cents would be required for the County Welfare Department.

Inclusion of the levy for flood control would make the possible County levy increase next year 8 cents. 40-Cent Raise Seen

On the basis of proposed Civil City and County budget increases, together with an impending - boost in the Center Township poor relief costs, there is a possibility of a 40cent increase in the 1939 property tax for, Indianapolis in Center Township. : The Center Township budget is not complete, but it has been hinted that it may require a levy increase of as much as 20 cents. Threat of a levy increase possibly ranging batween 13 and 17 cents is' seen by budget experts in the Civil City’s 1939 proposals. Trustees of Warren, Wayne and Washington Townships said today that there is little likelihood of substantial increases in their 1939 levies.

INJURIES FATAL TO 2D SCAFFOLD MAN

Robert Marlin, 920 E. Washington St., died at City Hospital today of injuries received in a 100-foot fall from a scaffold at the William H. Block Co., July 29. He was 32. Mr. Marlin, the father of seven small children, had been in a eri ical condition for 12 days. Killed instantly in the same accident was Clayton Hogsten, 40. Both men were employed by the Stone Erectors, Inc, in cleaning the building surface.

Mr. Marlin is survived by his wife;

Mrs. Marlin, and children, Robert, 1; Ralph, 9; Ruth, T; Ruby, .4; Reba, 2; Raymond, 1, and Russell, eight weeks.

FORGETS TO PROBE OWEN COUNTY WPA

Times Special WASHINGTON, Avg. 10. — This will bring the people in Owen County, Indiana, who asked the Senate Campaign Investigating Committee to look into some alleged political activities of WPA supervisors, up-to-date on the status of the probe. The Committee sent an investigator to Owen: County and told him also to go into some places in Illinois. Senator Sheppard, Committee chairman, said today the investigator had returned to Washington and had admitted that he completely forgot about the Indiana assignment. “We will send somebody else out

there later,” Senator Sheppard said.

Irish Storm Washington in Greeting Smiling Corrigan

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 (U. P). —The I-ish captured Washington today as Douglas Corrigan came io the nation’s capital and received the

tumultuous welcome reserved for heroes. The flag of Ireland flew over Washington and thousands shoved at police lines as Corrigan flew in from Baltimore for a hero’s acclaim.

The flying Irishman, catapulted flight to Dublin, came to the capi- &

{tal for an official greeting from

Government heads and an unofficial welcome from the Irish. The Irish were out in force when Corrigan flew in. More than 5000 people pushed against police lines at the airport as tie grinning little Irishman arrived the cockpit of an aitliner. - Blase Washington, accustomed to official welcomes, was ready to shed

1its air of indifference for the cele-

bration. Led by Irish officials, between 200,000 and 300,000 people were expected to cheer the little aviator before the welcome is complete. - Grinning broadly, he stepped from the air liner into the arms of 20 mem-

bers. of the Clan of Corrigan,

from obscurity by his “wrong-way”

jammed through the crowd to the plane’s side by a police squad. The crowd broke through police lines. A cordon of police, linking arms, battled the crowd and finally forced it back inside the lines. Corrigan saluted the crowd while the spectators ~ shouted “Don’t crush him.” :

For years this fisherman has said, as he wrestled with his tackle in a south gale that practically blew him over, that anyone was a fool to go fishI —= ing when the wind was “from any direction but the north, because that was when fish bite, and only then. Whereupon he would set his nose into

NOTHER fisherman will say that on hot days fish lie

| at the side ot rapids to watch for food that may come down.

Still another will say that they lie at the bottom of deep holes to keep cool, all right. But he will contend that they choose holes at the bottom of ripples not because they are looking for food—an important item when you consider the fisherman wants them to be hungry—but because water is cooler at the bottom of ripples, all other things being equal, than in other deep holes. Two fishermen holding these views, one each, can and will argue till all hours about the merits of their cases. » » 8 NE veteran fisherman at the Department says he and his companions of boyhood would ask two old gentlemen with corns when to go fishing and they invariably found it sound to go about a half day after the two reported their corns were aching. : Some fishermen prefer fresh west ‘winds and some waning east winds. Some say its best to go before a rain, some say after. Some say the. sun should be up and some say down. Some say the moon should be full, some say empty. So it goes. Anyone of these will fight fo his last artificial lure in support of his theory, and every one, under pressure, will admit he has caught fish under the

other fellow's best conditions as

well as his own.

Now comes the. scientist who says that baromeétfic pressure has something to do with when fish

feed and why. Barometric pressure would have something to do, too, with the winds, and the storms and the old gentlemen's corns. 2 2 8
