In commenting on the Highway Commission, Mr. Cleland said that on May 23 it asked bids on 74210 tons of rock asphalt, costing more than a million dollars. { This material, he said, is obtainable in this section of the country only from the Kentucky | Recalls Rock Asphalt Co. . Because of the lack of competi- | tion materials in this case, the at-| torney said he made an investiga- | tion of its cost. At Ft.

Four huge photographic signs, 12 feet long and about eight feet high, depicting achievements of the Democrtic Party in Indiana are emblazoned around the lobby of the French Lick Hotel.

George D. Crittenberger, president of the Editorial Association, said the conference was the most harmonious held by the group for lseveral years.

HOOSIERS IN WASHINGTO N—By Daniel Kidney

ASHINGTON, Sept. 16.—Con-

siderable consternation was caused here when the announce-

ment came from Indianapolis that Rep. J. William Ditter will address

the Indiana Republican rally next Saturday on the subject “National Unity for Peace.” For no Congressman has been more outspokingly partisan and against everything which President Roosevelt proposed at the last congressional session. He did vote to lift the embargo in the Neutrality law, however, and

ministration of foreign policy. But as a near 100 per cent oppositionist, Rep. Ditter is a pow-

erful figure in the potent Penn- |

sylvania G. O. P. delegation which now has 19 members as against 15 Pennsylvania Democrats. Arch N. Bobbitt, Indiana Republican State chairman, made a special trip here to invite Rep. Ditter in person as chairman of the National Reopublican Congressional Committee. Rep. Ditter voted against Government reorganization; farm parity payments; $100,000000 additional for WPA; Townsend Plan;

retention of dollar devaluation pow- | (ers by the President, and the lend- |

spend bili.

He was for the Hatch “no-poli- | 5¢€ with your own eyes,’ the guest | 'tics” bill; National Labor Relations | SPeaker smiled but flushed to the

Board investigation; the Naval appropriations; and the Bloom neutrality measure, That the outbreak of war has greatly changed Rep. Ditter’s partisanship would seem doubtful. Perhaps his suggestion for “National Unity” will be for F. D. R. to drop the New Deal and take over the Republican formulas—if any. At any rate, it sounds much like Mark Twain's description of the bartender with a bungstarter who shouted: “We are going to have peace in this saloon if somebody has to be carried out on a shutter.”

Jesse L. Lasky, in “Type’ is What

Jesse L. Lasky, doyen of Hollywood producers, arrived in Indianapolis this morning and started answering that eternal question Americana: “What makes a movie star and how cai. I become one.” Mr. Lasky was to audition prospective movie stars in his third “Gateway to Hollywood” contest. He is searching for a girl to be called Gale Storm and a young man to be called Terry Belmont. Final auditions will be held tomorrow night at the Indiana Theater. His first client this morning was Katy Lou Matlock, the young lady recently named “Miss Indiana.” Mr. Lasky asked Miss Matlock to sit down and he hunched his chair closer to her. Then he got up and walked all around her making squares with his hands and thumbs. He said he was catching camera angles. One of the first things he did was to have her raise her hair from her neck. He wanted to catch the neck and ear line, Then Miss Matlock got up and walked across the room, turned, stopped and came back. Mr. Lasky wanted to see how she walked and he said he wanted a long camera shot. Up to this time hadn't said a word. “You're a little nervous, aren't you?” the producer asked. “That's bad. I am trying to get your personality. When you're nervous i can't catch it.

Katy Lou laughed. “I know now just how I'd cast you,” Mr. Lasky said. “I'm going to wait a bit more before we read lines, I want you to be at your ease.

“You're a leading lady type,” he went on. “You're tall and poised and you look mature.” He pointed to another girl sitting there, Miss Dorothy Pyle. “This girl is definitely ingenue. I don’t know how old she is, but in a picture, she'd be younger than Miss Matlock. “Miss Pyle would be a younger sister; She'd spend a lot of time dancing. This other girl would be the serious one. She'd be working at a library and supporting the family. “They'd both be in love with the same man. Katy Lou here would give him up for her sister. She'd be the lady and Dorothy would be an irresponsible girl.” It turned out Miss Pyle was 20 and Miss Matlock was 18. That didn’t make any difference, Mr. Lasky declared. Types, he said, are not what they are but what the popular conception of them is. He looked around the room. There was a South Side theater manager. Mr. Lasky said his type was a small town banker, His press agent, he said, was a perfect football or prizefighter trainer—or a house detective. He himself could never be cast as a producer, he declared.

AQUITANIA RUNS SEA BLOCKADE

Zig-Zags Way to N. Y. With 1625, It’s Guns Stripped For Action.

NEW YORK, Sept. 16 (U. P.).— Camouflaged in black and gray the British liner Aquitania brought 1625

passengers into port today after a zig-zag journey through the German submarine blockade of the Atlantic. Two 12-pound guns, stripped for action, were set up on the afterdeck of the giant liner which had concealed its position since it left Southampton last Saturday. Some of the 669 Americans still were indignant over a visit from the American consul in Southampton before the vessel sailed. “All the American’ cabin passengers were summoned to the lounge,” said Robert J. Landry, radio editor of Variety, theatrical trade paper. He read: “ ‘Ambassador Kennedy feels that in addition to other statements he has made it is his duty to warn American citizens taking passage in vessels of belligerent nations that when such vessels are being convoyed the opposing belligerents may claim the right to sink them without warning. This statement does not mean that convoyed vessels are to be considered less safe than unconvoyed * vessels, It is made purely to acquaint Americans with a contingency that might arise.’ “The effect was to paralyze everyone completely. ‘What are we supposed to do?’ They asked, but the sensu refused to answer any queson.”

FOUR ROBBED OF $16 BY BANDITS

Two Cab Drivers Are Among Victims; $3.50 Taken From Watchman.

Bandits were active in the city last night taking approximately $16 from four persons. Two Red Cab Co. drivers and a night watchman were among the victims. Charles Achey, 37, of 1635 Montcalm Ave, a cab driver, told police that he picked up a young man in the 600 block Russell Ave., and drove him to Columbia Park, where the passenger robbed him of $3. A man drew a razor on Harry Obenchain, 33, of 1723 N. Meridian St., another cab driver, at Blake and New York Sts., and took $7.20. William Kivett, 35, of 457 Arbor Ave., told police that as he came out of a tavern in the 400 block W, Washington St., two men took him in back of the tavern and robbed him of $2. Charles Hofer, 78, of 4909 Wash burn St., a night watchman at the Independent Coal Co., 604 S. Harding St., reported that while making his usual rounds, two men stopped him in the dark and took approxi mately $3.50 in change. The men then hit him in the stomach and fled, Mr. Hofer said.
