ar WARNS AGAINST CUTTING STATE HIGHWAY TREES

Commission to Prosecute Guilty Parties in Future Cases.

Prosecution of persons cutting down or otherwise destroying trees planted on road rights-of-way was threatened today by the State Highway Commission. Henry J. Schnitzius, Commission landscapes supervisor, | estimated that nearly 300 trees! planted along State highways in the -Jast four years have been destroyed! by vandals or by lumber thieves. “The most aggravating case occurred last Saturday on Highway 31 just north of Indianapolis where

three large trees were cut down,”|

Mr. Schnitzius said. Received Warning

Saturday morning an unidentiman came up to my office and warned me that some trees would be cut down on Road 31. I went cut there at noon and found the trees down and hauled away. This .apparently was done to clear the .view for a sign erected near the hichway.” He said trees were planted along Road 31 with money furnished by .the Federal Government to

.of Indianapolis. “I don’t think the ublic will stand for the destruction of trees merely to show off advertising bill .boards,” he said.

25,000 Trees Planted

More than 25000 trees have been planted along Indiana highways since the road forestry program was started four years ago Mr. Schnitzius said no effort had been made to prosecute persons cutting down scores of other trees but that prosecution of guilty persons

| Sheriff Feeney said teday he may request funds in his budget estimate for 1940 ‘to re-establish a county road patrol. | No regular patrol of county roads is now performed by the Sheriff's department, he said, due to lack of

men and cars. | «It is one of the theories of the

He spoke at a Flag Day meeting of the Republican Women's Club of Delaware County last night. “The party of Jackson and Jefferson has passed out of existence,” | he said. “It now remains for the Re-

{publican Party to halt the tide of

radicalism, the fabulous spending, fantastic experimentations, grotesque theories . . . and European dogmas which now emanate from Washington.” Charges Are Hurled

He charged that these are “smothering and destroying self reliance. individualism, confidence, business industry, thrift and the spirit of America itself ” Mr. Bossert,

a former Ku-Klux

{ Klan leader, charged that * the pro-

i sram of the New Deal has been one of destruction” and “in its path of destruction now lies Americanism itself.” “The Republican Party has to offer in place of the New Deal” he continued, “sane government, p»rosperity, real security. an honest, economical and efficient administration, relief from confiscatory taxation. escape from foreign entanglements, American principles and an Ameria for Americans.” Predicts G.

MAUCH CHUNK, Pa, June 15 (U. P).—A conference among District Attorney Albert Heimbach, James C. McCready, counsel for a Nesquehoning “justice committee” and other authorities was expected to bring new disclosures today in the fatal shooting of 14-year-old Joan Stevens by Corp. Benjamin Franklin of the State Motor Police. Mr. McCready said that evidence constituting “surprising developments” had been brought into the

case by new witnesses. The attor-

'¥

ney, retained by a citizens’ committee which was formed to aid the Stevens family, said he would demand today that Franklin be returned from the Wyoming State Motor Police Barracks to reconstruct completely the events leading up to the shooting of the girl in an automobile June 5, while she was being questioned regarding a plot— apparently imagined--to hold up several hanks, County authorities disclosed that the trooper fired a .32-caliber auto-

matic pistol 10 times in sending the eight fatal bullets into the girl's frail body. The authorities said that in the type of pistol used, the trigger must be pulled once for each shot. It had been assumed that the gun used was of the type which fired several shots rapidly if the trigger is not immediately released. Actually, it was said, Pranklin must have pulled the trigger 10 times, since two shots went wild, and eight hullets struck the Stevens girl. Franklin said he fired six shots.

Mr. McCready said he would de-| mand a physical examination of Franklin in an effort to determine! whether a struggle preceded the shooting of the girl, who weighed | 87 pounds. The Nesquehoning group's attorney was prepared to demand that, all evidence in the possession oi the| State Motor Police be turned over to him, as well as the death car in| which Franklin and Private Edward Swatji rode to keep their appoint-| ment with the girl.
