From. County. RIPEEYNOTE STILL OUT

LE i .

Marshall Returns Boost Republican Totals; Leads Are Unchanged.

BULLETIN A petition for a recount of votes cast in the race for Judge of Superior Court 2 was filed with the County Clerk this afternoon by George R. Jeffrey, Republican, whe on the fice of official returns ~ was defeated for the ‘office by Herbert M. Spencer.

Affidavits contesting the election of 1] Marion County Democratic Legislator-elect and the MarionJohnson County Joint Representa-

tive-elect were filed with the County Clerk today by Republican Party leaders. Meanwhile, the Republican State Committee filed a contest petition on- behalf of Raymond E. Willis, for U. S. Senator, and 11 Republican State candidates, in Vanderburgh County. Similar petitions on behalf _ of the State ticket were to be filed in six other counties—Marion, Lake, Vermillion, Vigo, Clark and Franklin—according to Arch N. Bobbitt, Republican State chairman. The defeated Republican State candidates were in conference this afternoon to decide whether to file contests in other counties.

Ripley Returns Out

At the same time, the official returns from Marshall County were received at the Secretary of State’s office, leaving only Ripley County yet to be heard from. The Marshall County returns boosted the Republican State. candidates’ totals Several hundred, but not. enough to place any of them in the lead. : Senator VanNuys’ ‘lead over Mr. Willis was reduced to 7101 by the Marshall County - figures; while the lead of James M. Tucker, Republican, over Edward Koenemann in the Secretary of State race was in- - creased to 1123 from 508. Mr.- Tucker apparently was the only Republican State candidate -elected.

Nr Filed Under Voter’s Name The Marion County legislative contest proceedings were filed under the name of Frank P. Lemons, 5222

E. Michigan St.,, as a Republican voter. . The affidavits state that .th Democratic Legislators-elect “should not be permitted to assume their respective offices because of illegal votes” and that the Republican candidates for: the Legislature “should be declared to be entitled to and are the parties elected to said offices.” Joseph OQ. Carson II, one of the Republican legislative candidates, who headed the delegation taking the affidavits to the Court House, explained that under the law, the County Clerk is to name two Justices of the Peace to take depositions, which then would be turned over to the Secretary of State, who'in turn would present them to the House Speaker. “The House itself has full control over who is officially seated in the Assembly,” Mr. Carson said, “and the Speaker probably will name a House committee to arrange a public hearing or a vote by the legislative body on the seating of the new candidates.” At the same time, defeated Republican candidates for judge of Superior Court 2, Center Township

BEDFORD, Nov. 18 (U. P).— This entire community rejoiced today at news that the Ingalls Stone Co. of Bedford has. been awarded a $325,000 contract to furnish stone for Philadelphia's new Municipal Court Building. The Indiana limestone industry has been stricken during the last several years since building lagged. Ston& cutting is Bedford’s only major industry and since it has fallen off the city has had one of the State's greatest unemployment problems. The new contract will mean prolonged work for 200 employees, the Ingalls company reported. The.contract calls for 17,000 cubic feet of stone, or 215 carloads. In addition, $60,000 of the contract is to spent for stone carving, which pays an average wage $1.50 per hour.

Robert was in the shock ward at City Hospital tearfully relating the story of the tragedy. : Out to exercise a hunting dog, the three had watched the regular interurban car.roll over the trestle. Then they started across, not knowing that two special cars had been added to take delégates to the Indiana Farm Bureai convention home. “I was walking in front of daddy and I heard a noise. I turned around and saw a light. I knew there was a car coming and told daddy. He ‘grabbed me,” Robert said. ‘ : Police told of Mr. Branham seizing his son in his arms gnd running across the trestle, trying to escape from thé oncoming car. Caught near the end of the bridge, Mr. Branham leaped to the edge and. held his son out as far as he could, hoping the car would clear both of them. Hurled Against Abutment But Mr. Branham was caught and hurled 40 féet away against a stone bridge abutment. When the youth was torn away from his father’s grasp, he fell 30 feet to the ground and was severely: bruised. Meanwhile; Mr. Roe ran to safety at the far end of the trestle. “The first IT knew of the car was when Bobby called to his father,”

ROOSEVELT NAMES ‘STABILITY’ BOARD

WASHINGTON, Nov. 18 (U. P). —President Roosevelt today named a special four-man board to study national production and income in an effort to increase stability of the economic structure, Lene The purpose of the board is to advise upon fiscal and monetary policies in" an effort to eliminate sharp upward and downward curves in the nation’s economic life. The board, which is temporary, will comprise Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau, chairman: Marriner Eccles, of the Federal Reserve Board; Daniel W. Bell, acting budget director; and Frederic A. Delano,

Discussing corn - manufactured power alcohol, Dr. Christensen said that blended = with ° gasoline = its widespréad. use would require all the crops produced on 30 million acres of land throughout the country “and would employ possibly a million men in its production and distribution.” “It can be made not only from corn, but from barley, rye and grain sorghums,” he said,

Applaud Address

Prolonged applause interrupted Dr. Christensen’s address yesterday in which he outlined the principal

alcohol program. “By tax differential, such as that provided in the Gilletto-Harrington bill proposed in the last session of Congress, the power alcohol industry would be assisted in meeting the

prices,” he said. : “Under a two-price plan, based on a section of the AAA amendment, surplus grain would be dumped into the power alcohol market at the price it is worth. . “But it is your problem to decide whether this plan or some other is used.” Mixture Is Explained

Dr. Christensen explained that the grain alcohol is blended with gasoline as a 10 per cent blend, that is, 10 parts of alcohol to 90 parts of gasoline. “Gasoline consumption in a good year reaches 25 billion gallons,” he said; “and 10 per cent of that is two and a half billion gallons of alcohol. “At two and a half gallons of alcohol per bushel of grain, this market would take one billion bushels — that’s at least twice the surplus of all grains.” : Power alcohol, on the market in the West as Agrol, was developed out of the pioneer work in its chem-

By LEE G. MILLER : - Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Nov. _18.—The wedge that divides the world’s democracies from Nazi Germany was driven deeper today by the new U, S. trade agreements with Great Britain and Canada. The exchange of commercial favors between Washington, on the one hand and London and Ottawa on the other, offers potential benefits to every country of consequence in the world with one exception, Germany. The same thing is true of our existing agreements with 17 other countries Alone among the powers, Germany has declined to pledge that

favorable treatment than she gives that of any other nation. Accordingly, while the U. 8. tariff reductions proclaimed under the AngloAmerican and Canadian-American agreements are automatically available to other nations after Jan. 1, German goods of the same types must continue to pay the high rates fixed under the Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act of 1930. Germany at Disadvantage

The direct loss to Germany may not be enormous since most.of the cuts apply to articles of which the United Kingdom or Canada is our principal source. But on certain commodities which we now buy from Germany as well, the Nazis will suffer a substantial disadvantage. . A ’ For example, last year Germany sold us more than six million pounds, or $445,000, worth of edible palm-kernel oil (used in oleomargarine, etc). The United Kingdom sold ‘us $250,000 worth, and the rest of the world about $115,000 worth. The new Anglo-American agreement cuts half a cent off the cent-a-pound tariff on this commodity, and guarantees that the 3-cent-a-pound processing tax on thé same oil will not be raised. : Such oil, therefore, when shipped to us from Britain or from anywhere else except Germany, will now pay a total levy of 3% ‘cents a pound, while the same kind of oil from Germany will pay 4 cents. In other words, 12% per cent less tax
