Mr. Icke’s statement was directed particularly at statements by former President Hoover who last night charged that the New Deal policies were leading the United States toward war. “There is no danger of this country being involved in war under this Administration,” Mr. Ickes sa “We ought to bé ronsiders kind,” he continued. “Mr. a heartbroken and disappointed

Mr. Morgenthau’s statement concerning the stabilization fund was

Roosevelt mounted in the controlled Nazi press today in a concerted campaign to give the impression that Americans were up in arms against being “dragged into war” as a result of the Chief Executive's apparent move to aid the democratic powers. At the same time, semiofficial the formation given out to the foreign correspondents in Berlin warned that “repercussions” were likely as a result of the enthusiasm with which certain French circles received Mr, Roosevelt's aid in pro‘|viding war planes for France. “No one can doubt that it will not be without repercussions when a desire for peace—as expressed by Fuehrer Adolf Hitler—is met by absolute enmity,” the semiofficial statement said.
Opposition Stressed
“It is evident that the spirit of Versailles is still alive in these quarters and proves that they are not yet willing to accept Germany's voluntary offer of friehdship as a basis for mutual relations.” The reference presumably was to the recently signed French-German nonaggression accord. Der Angriff, the newspaper of Propaganda Minister Goebbels, emphasized the American opposition to Mr. Roosevelt's plans. ’ ““A storm of indignation is following on the heels of Mr. Roose(Continued on Page Three)

City Officials Reveal Interest in Local
Utility. nt
NO DECISION YET
Legal Department May Draw Up Measure.
A bill authorizing the City of Indianapolis to purchase the Indian-| apolis Water Co. may be introduced irr the Legislature "soon, it was learned today. City officials revealed they are giving serious consideration to the possibility of the purchase, which first was suggested in City Council several months ago. Mayor Sullivan said no decision has been made in regard.to seeking legislation, adding: “However, it would be desirable tc have some kind of legislation enahling the City to buy the Water C)., if the purchase should be fecund advisable. We don’t know yet if it would be desirable.” Corporation Counsel Edward H. Knight said he believes an amendment to the 1929 Indianapolis Utilities Act would be necessary before the Water Co. could be acquired. The Utilities - District Law was passed to enable the City to buy the Citizens Gas Co., which had a provision for municipal acquisition in ifs charter. The Water Company charter had no such provision. Mr. Knight said a bill may be drafted by the City Legal Department, but added that the draft has not been started. Mayor Sullivan announced several weeks ago that he would be glad to confer with anyone having suggestions to make in regard to the possibility of buying the Water Company. Several days ago he said he had received no constructive suggestions thus far. - -. ‘The proposal that the City investigate the possibility of buying the company first was made last October by Dr. Theodore Cable, Democratic councilman. Council authorized appointment of a committee to study the matter, but subsequently daclined to approve personnel of the committee named. Later C. W. McNear, president of McNear & Co., Chicago investment firm, said his firm was prepared to riegotiate with the City in the mattor. He said he had been authorized to do this by the executor of the estate of C. H. Geist, who owned the V7ater Company stock.

Shortly after announcement of the court’s decision, Frank Finney, State Auto License Bureau Commissioner, began preparations to collect approximately $2,000,000 in fees from truckers that are due under the law. ; Mr. Finney’s department has made no attempt to collect this tax for over a year because the constitution(Continued on Page Four)

Mr. Starks, who was performing an extracurricular experiment with potassium permanganate and sulphuric acid, was taken to St. Vincent’s Hospital after physicians treated him at the school. At the hospital it was reported that Mr. Starks’ condition was fair, but that he was “badly burned on the face.” The others were ‘given first aid at the school and continued with thelr laboratory work.
Prof. Guy-Shadinger said the experiment had nothing to do with the course. Others injured were:

Prof. Shadinger said Mr. Starks had mixed the acid and permanganate and was boiling the mixture in a glass retort over a burner when it exploded like a firecracker, spraying the mixture. Mr. Starks was attended at the
school by Drs. M. H. Taylor, with
offices at 4143 Boulevard Place, and Harold M. Trussler, with offices in the Hume Mansur ‘Building. As he heated the acid, it exploded and flew into his face.
