“Two Given Leniency

{ The third Marion County prisoner denied leniency is Paul McKinney, sentenced April 12, 1938, to one to five years for petit larceny.

{Deffendoll’s sentence was commuted to an indeterminate period of from 18 years to life. He claimed in his petition that he was forced to sign a confession for the murder of his mother, Martha.

Watson was given a parole with the understanding that he be deported to Canada and never return to this country. He is a Canadian by birth and was found guilty of having shot a woman because of jealousy.

Peace Sentiment Strong; ‘Excessive’ Arms Fought

Ludlow and Referendum Bloc Willing to Boost Defense.

By RAYMOND CLAPPER Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.—Some

senators and representatives fear

that adequate national defense measures in the coming session of Congress will be blocked by the

strong desire in this country to keep|-

out of war. y These members have just been through an election and know that, in most parts of the United States, sentiment is strongly against mixing up in Europe—perhaps stronger than it was before the recent crisis. But it does not follow that this sentiment will oppose adequate national defense. The best weathervane on that is Rep. Louis Ludlow (D. Ind.), author of the Ludlow War Referendum Amendment. Rep. Ludlow, a Democrat, won reelection easily while some of his fellow Indiana Democrats went down to defeat. He campaigned on his war referendum and told his Indianapolis constituents that he wanted them to vote him in or out on that issue. He is preparing to come back and make a new fight for it and it will be a troublesome issue because it wus killed last winter only by the hargest kind of cloakroom wire-pulling by the Administration. Even Jim Farley had to telephone several state Democratic bosses and persuade them to call off their Representaives in Congress.

Favors Strong Defense

- But Rep. Ludlow, spokesman for the extreme of keep-out-of-war sentiment, told his constituents that he was for strong defense.

“If I am re-elected I will vote

every dollar needed for defense of

our country but I will not vote to put our boys up against the bayonets, poison gas and the aerial bombs in any foreign war in which we have no direct interest.” : That probably is a fair reflection of American public sentiment at the moment—intense determination to keep out of foreign wars, coupled with willingness ‘to take whatever measures seem necessary for adequate defense of our country. Events in Europe and Asia probably have strengthened peace sentiment and defense sentiment simultaneously. The two things are not: contradictory. on the contrary, world events have shown that in these times, a nation is helpless unless it is able to defend: itself. Czechoslovakia and China tell that story. There is one fear that is working up—or maybe is being worked up—fear that the Roosevelt Administra-

Prediction Based on Manufacturing Increase.

Better than average employment in the manufacturing and retail fields is expected this December by Martin F, Carpenter, Indiana State

Employment Service Director. Mr. Carpéenter’s prediction is based on increased activity in manufacturing for holiday trade.

“Only four Indiana industries|

normally show seasonal increases in employment,” he said, “but many more increases are expected.” Mr. Carpenter said much of the slack caused by seasonal layoffs will be taken up by job opportunities offered in retail establishments during the Christmas shopping season. He said he estimates that Indiana

The west roadway of S. East St. will be reopened to two-way traffic Friday if weather permits, Henry B. Steeg, City Engineer, said today.

Eventually the street will consist of two 28-foot lanes, divided by a It will contain modern roadway lamps.

If your liver doesn’t secrete 20 to 30 ounces of bile every day into your intestines— constipation with its headaches, mental dullness and that ‘“half-alive” feeling often result. So you see how imt it is to keep bile flowing freely! And what finer aid could one desire than Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, used so . guccessfully for years by Dr. F. M.

Olive Tablets are unsurpassed in effectiveness because they stimulate liver bile to help digest fatty foods, they tone up muscular intestinal action at the same time help elimination.

TVA PLEDGES AID FOR MEMPHIS PURCHASE

MEMPHIS, Tenn., Nov. 29 (U. P.). —Chairman Harcourt A. Morgan of the Tennessee Valley Authority said today that TVA would co-operate with the City of Memphis in any deal it makes for purchase of electric and gas facilities of the Memphis Power and Light Co. 5 Mr. Morgan assured City officials TVA would pay $2,000,000 it had promised as its part of the purchase price. His statement removed fears that TVA would not carry out its promise if the City makes a new deal with the utility.

Two More Senators Take Stand Against Too Much Preparedness.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29 (U. P.). —A sizeable Senate bloc favoring an adequate but opposing an “excessive” rearmament program appeared to be forming today as two more Senators warned against extreme national defense plans. Chairman Walsh (D. Mass.) of the Senate Naval Affairs Committee, and Senator-Elect D. Worth Clark (D. Ida.) admitted that United States’ defenses need considerable strengthening, that they would oppose any expansion plans beyond our needs. Yesterday Senators Bennett Champ Clark (D. Mo.) and Norris (Ind. Neb.) expressed similar views, Senator Clark warning against defense plans based on “war hysteria.” Although returning Congressmen were cautious about expressing how far this country should go in a preparedness program, nearly all agreed that expansion of the Army, Navy and Air Corps probably would be the major issue when Congress convenes Jan. 3. ;

“Some Expansion Needed”

Senator Walsh said that the current world situation calls for “some expansion” of national defense, especially coastal defenses, “but I think we should get President Rooseveltls recommendations” before trying to formulate any program. Worth Clark was of the opinion that “war in Europe will break out before long,” but emphasized that the United States’ policy should be to “mind our own business.” “Im in favor of increasing our national defense up to a strength where it will be theoretically at least strong enough to defend our nation against any invader or any combination of invaders,” he said. Senator Norris, one of the small group of Congressmen who voted against entrance of this country into the World War, said that he was convinced of a need for preparedness.

Japan Upsets Plans

Meanwhile, a high Navy Department official said that the United States would spend larger sums than at any time in its history on Pacific Ocean naval establishments. This was in answer to reports from Berlin that it is Japan’s “unmistakeable intention” to push its system of naval bases far into the region of its mandated islands in the Pacific. That official also said that if Japan builds battleships of more than 40,000 tons, the United States “in all probability” soon will have to meet the limit of the recent treaty signed by this country, Great Britain and France for battleships of 45,000 tons.

CONDEMNED BY GRANGE LEADER

‘Common Sense’ Approach To Increased Income Goal of Taber.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 29 (U. P.).—Louis J. Taber, master of the National Grange, revealed the full text today of the organization’s “15point program for agriculture” designed to maintain the American standard of living on the farms of the nation. Stopping yesterday en route to a meeting of the Texas State Grange after the National Grange convention in Portland, Ore., Mr. Taber said the executive committee of the Grange was committed to the proposition that the American farmer does not want to be subsidized—and neither does he want charity. “We demand a chance to march forward for a sound program of national recovery . . . based on common sense in the battle for a larger share of the national income,” he said. Simultaneously, the executive committee made public a 15-point program evolved as the result of

vention. : Seek “Simpler” Law The platform resolved to “permit no legislation to be adopted which will result in either immediate or eventual regimentation” of farmers. It advocated amendment and “simplification” of the Federal farm law, and opposed any concentration “of authority or infringement-.of state’s rights. ! J The committee said that it would fight for a requirement that all trade treaties be subjected to Senate ratification, and that their provisions be made available for study by farmers and their representatives.
