EMPLOYERS AND LABOR LEADERS OF CITY PRAISED
Both Reasonable, U. S. Conciliator Says, Adding They Aid in Luring Firms.
Labor leaders and employers in Indianapolis are “reasonable and peaceful” and aid in “attracting industry to the city,” in the opinion of Robert C. Fox, U. S. labor concili-
ator. “Of course, there are exceptions on both sides,” Mr. Fox said, {‘but| most unions have been reasonable! in their demands and most employers realize their employees position. Both have become better acquainted with the idea that they are mutually necessary.” Mr. Fox is head of the Indianapolis office of the Conciliation Servjce of the U. S. Department of Labor. This 26-year-old service, headed nationally by Dr. John R. Steelman, has been described as one that “has kept its light hid under a nonpartisan bushel.”

STATE CONTINUES PRISON PLOT PROBE
MICHIGAN CITY, Ind, June 30] (U.P.)—Warden Alfred Dowd oI the State Prison and John Klinger
WASHINGTON, June 30 (U. P). —Gen. Malin Craig, retiring Chief of Staff of the Army, revealed today that the first line of land defense has been moved hundreds of miles from the continental coast lines to a series of “outposts” of which Puerto Rico, Panama, Hawaii and Alaska are the principal bases. Gen. Craig revealed this in his final annual report to the Secretary of War, made public today. He declared the Army, after four strenuous years of recuperation from a lean period of “disarmament economy” was now ‘revamped, revitalized and rearmed,” and approaching the point where it is ready for any defense emergency.
Asks Initial Force of 400,000
The “outpost line” must be garrisoned, he said, with an “initial protective force” of 400,000 men with another 600,000 men in immediate reserve in event of a war, Gen. Craig said the Army is now rapidly approaching the status of a streamlined, highly mobile, hardhitting defense force adequate for almost any emergency. He emphasized that now that the point of adequate preparedness is nearly reached, every effort should be made to maintain this state of preparedness. He said much of his four years as Chief of Staff had been given over to “rectifying the unsound and hazardous condition into which the Army was placed as a result of the so-called disarmament period following the World War.”
Shortages in Equipment Cut
“The most important need at this time is a clear definition of what constitutes adequacy in normal military defense. . . . It is simple common sense for the country to determine upon and maintain at a constant level a sound, reasonably constructed Army as a matter of
pure economy and safety. The great outlay of money culminating in the appropriations of the last fiscal year were caused in the main by the failure to observe this precept during the so-called disarmament period. In his report of progress toward readiness for any eventuality Gen. Craig said: | “Shortages in critical items of modern antiaircraft equipment re-| quired for mobile antiaircraft regi-| ments have been materially ‘re-| duced. . . . “The full initial requirement of the initial protective force for light! tanks is being provided. Procure-| ment has been initiated for medium | tanks
