HEARING OF ABC

"Wied Barnhart, He Claims; hang to Carry Fight

To Governor. \ |

Rep. Joseph Klein (D. Gary) today said he will submit to Governor Townsend information on what he described as the “inepti+ tude that has marked the conduct? of Hugh A. Barnhart as Alcoholic Beverage Commission adminis+ trator. | The Representative blamed i114 ness for his absence from the scheduled hearing “to clear my name” before the Beverage Com-~ mission yesterday. ,. He had asked for a public ‘hearing after two Gary tavern oper-

ators. had accused- him of offering|| -

to “Ax?” a beer. violation case for $100.

Wired Barnhart, He Says

He said he sent a telegram to Mr. Barnhart explaining his fail--ure to appear because of illness but that the Commission did not make it public.

Mr. Barnhart said he received the |

telegram yesterday and that it was] sent from Indianapolis. The telegram to stated in part: “These last few weeks I have learned that you have personally Played an active role in this scheme to defame me. Consequently I could not regard the Commission

as a fair tribunal to receive the con- |! sideration for vindication that I

seek.

“My first impulse! upon the dis-|]

covery of this attempt upon my character was to retaliate hy revealing in all its nauseous aspects the ineptitude that has| marked your conduct as administrator.

Denied ‘Fixin * Offer

“I therefore "decided to address my complaint, embodying largely the information that I tended to submit to the Commission, to the authority to which you owe your appointment, the Governor of Indi- ~ ana. He=alone has the | power to rectify the conditions that I propose to describe.” Rep. Klein earlier denied that he ever offered to Lefixn 3 beer case and demanded vindication. Mr. Barnhart declined! to comment upon Mr. Klein's statement, explaining the “case is closed so far as I am concerned.” -

152 ARRESTS MADE N TRUCK BLOCKADE

‘The first state-wide highway truck *blockade ‘by the Indiana State Police resulted in 152 arrests out of 4368 trucks inspected, Don

F. Stiver, Public Safety director, announced today. The blockade was in force last night from 8 p. m. until midnight, he said. State Police and Public Service Commission inspectors made the check. Two hundred and fifty-six drivers were given warnings about’ violations; he said. Most of the violations were for being overweight and for failure to have a Public Service Commission permit. - One was arrested for drunken driving andanother for driving while under the influence of narcotics. Blockades are made periodically and will be continued, Mr. Stivers said, for both trucks and passenger cars.

EX-COUNTY CLERK’S SUIT ASKS $18,284

SOUTH BEND, Ind. July 28 (U. P.).—A suit asking $18,284 from St. Joseph County for fees for depufy * hire, insanity fees and per diem fees for daily attendance at court was on file today by Frank H. Nevins, for- - mer county clerk. : Mr. Nevins filed the claim originally in December, 1936, and his suit asked for the original sum plus in-

ditional playgrounds and park acreage. Officials now have in mind the gcquisition of 130 acres along Little

|Eagle Creek between Lambert and|

Raymond ‘Sts. This would serve about 10,647 people, scouring to Council estimates.

Lack of Balance Claimed

| Park officials assert that most of the park and playground space was either acquired through gratutities or purchased considerably under prevailing land prices. | Although this method has saved the City some expense, it has resulted in an unbalanced distribution of park areas, with no large park area within one mile of the Circle. {Park Department records show that it has been a tendency to acquire land in districts where its value is low. More land could be acquired in outlying districts than in built up areas, where land values are high. One official expressed “The City bought quantity, rathe; than quality.”

South Side Tract Leased

The Park Department several years ago considered a plan wherzby small tracts would be purchased as combination small parks and playgrounds for children and adults. The tracts would be distributed throughout the heavily populated districts and would .draw a heavy attendance because of their proximity, according to the plan. A move in this direction was made last spring when the Board leased 10 ‘acres of empty. lots south of the City asphalt plant on West St. from the Works Board.

BORNEMAN GETS 1-10 YEARS FOR SLAYING

LONDON—British start intensive

Asia.

At the same time, the British Foreign Office—upset by the suddenness of the United States action -after Britain had made concessions to Japan—indicated that any move toward denouncing “the BritishJapanese trade agreement would be delayed until the conclusion of the present negotiations at Tokyo for settlement of the Japanese blockade of the British Concession at Tientsin. In other words, Britain's action may depend on outcome of the negotiations at Tientsin. Paris @ircles welcomed the action of the United States but indicated French policy would follow that of ‘Great Britain.

Japan Backs Down

China, which had begun to feel she was fighting stubbornly alone against the “new order” in East Asia tock new heart. Foreign Minister Wang Chung-hui said “America has always been known for its sense of justice and China has always had unswerving faith in the American people. The Chinese people welcome the announcement as an indication of the desire of the United States.to maintain its position and prestige in the Pacific.” With the Japanese obviously shocked by the implications of the United States move, today’s “clarification” by the Tokyo Foreign Office put" a new light on Japan's attitude. Previously, a statement | issued by the Foreign Office had said flatly that Japan was willing to neSatine a new treaty “in conformity |with this new situation in East Asia.” ; - But the spokesman’s later clarification said that sentence should be interpreted. “broadly” and - that Japan would not demand American i recognition of its dominance over

| China.

Britain Is Embarrassed: - Behind the hesitation and desire for further consideration in Tokyo was the realization that, if desired, the United States could wield powerful economic’ weapons against the Japanese Government, by embargo and other economic measures. One of these weapons would be levying of countervailing duties ‘against Japanese imports to America, thus cutting into the ability of Tokyo to purchase war supplies. The Japanese Government has

While American officials awaited public reaction to determine whether measures other than denunciation of the 1211 treaty would be taken for protection of United States interests in the Far East, the Tokyo Foreign Office issued an official statement interpreting its position as favorable toward negotiating a new treaty with Washington without insisting on American recognition of Japan’s claims in China.

One reason for this is that Britain has been so busy irying to keep her affairs in order in Europe and at home that the Japanese have had an unusual opportunity for action.

The ' bill became a law immediately after Parliament completed approval and Scotland Yard massed its forces for a drive against terrorists charged with scores of bombings and fires in England this year in their campaign ‘to’ drive British troops from Ulster and united North Areland with Eire.

Moon Steals Show From God. of War as 1000 Watch Sky Here.

Celestial stagehands missed their cues and all but ruined Mars” personal appearance at the Indiana Astronomical = Society’s Crooked Creek observatory last night. With almost 1000 star gazers awaiting the stellar prima donna, they let down a cloud curtain and held it until 9:30 p. m. Meanwhile the moon, billed just after the acrobats was stealing the show. Half the audience waited in line for a look at the earth’s familiar satellite through the society’s 10inch telescope. They found that it looks a good deal like bubbling oatmeal done in plaster. =~ Lectures Precede ‘Act’ Mars’ appearance was distinctly an anti-climax. While it lurked coyly in the wings, there was a lecture by Emsley W." Johnson, the Astronomical = Society’s president; |" another ohe by Walter Wilkins, who | publishes its magazine, and formal presentation of the telescope hy Samuel “Watets, = © the ; society's founder.” And when Mars finally came on the scene, all anyone could see was something resembling an orange pinhead. No vegetation, no canals, no rocket ‘ships. This was" through the large. telescope. - There were a few smaller onés planted at random, and several private binoculars. One little girl had a spyglass and was*looking through the wrong end. Mr. Wilkins, who was riding mechanic for the big telescope most of the evening, said it was a “No. 9 night.” = Night ‘Next to Raining’ “We divide nights into 10 groups according to visibility,” he said. “When it’s a No. 10 night, it’s raining.” Mr. Wilkins was inclined to blame Meteorologist J. H. Armington for all the stagehand trouble. Mr. Armington—an Astronomical Society: member, too—predicted fair weather for last night. There was a hint that some of the boys might be around to see him today.
