_ Schricker Says Movement Is Going Hand-in-Hand With Churches.

Lieut. -Gov. Henry F. Schricker last night told the Indianapolis and Central Indiana Council, Boy Scouts, that the Scout movement “is going hand-in-hand with the N churches, schools and homes toward J building a better America.” ; He spoke to 200 persons gathered * in the Athenaeum for the Silver Jubilee meeting of the Council. “No one can estimate the value of the ~ Boy Scout movement,” Mr. Schricker said. . He told of the thousands of dollars that are being spent each year by the taxpayers -of the. State to maintain prisons and insane hospitals. He declared criminals have no respect for neither law nor the \ principles upon which this country was built, and praised the training ¥ which Scouts receive, both in gov-Jernment-and civic life.

Praises Work of Council

~. "Only when we take a deep interest in citizenship, as Scouts do, can we expect to preserve it for the future, The kind of Scouts we have today, the kind of government we can expect tomorrow. » “I am thankful I am living in a country that spends money to preserve youth rather than spend it for implements of war to destroy it. * “If there'is one duty we have, all of us, it is to drive out the subversive elements which are tending to undermine our government. God hasten the day when the strong arm of the government will transplant those opposéd to our government back to where they belong.” The Lieutenant Governor praised the work done by the Council in the past quarter of a century. ¢The work of this period has not ' * just been.for 25 years but probably Ina hundred years to come,” he

Belzer, _ Scout executive who is to resign his tion next June, upon the work has done in the organization and asked for an “even greater interest » in Scout work by everyone, citizens and members alike. “The more ardent is scouting, the more ardent

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Nov. 8 (U:| P.) —Defense counsel today attempted to shorten a parade of “silent” witnesses threatening to ex- | tend trial of General Motors Corp., three affiliated concerns and 17 individuals. Twenty-nine “silent” witnesses, who were allowed to tell only their name, address, business and how long they had been in business to the jury, appeared yesterday. Forty-four appeared Wednesday. The companies are charged with violating the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. . John Thomas Smith, chief defense counsel, said he would attempt to cut the list of “silent” witnesses. He said,’ however, that he knew no better way to prove that dealers were not coerced to use G. M A. C, as the Government charges, than to present dealers who

will testify they were not coerced.

Asserts Farmer Is to Be

.. Victim of Proposed Pact - ~ With Argentina. bmp

Times Special {

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.—That the American farmer is to be victimized by the pending trade agreement with Argentina was charged by Rep. Forest A. Harness (R. Ind) in a radio address inserted into the Con-

gressional Record today. “Our State Department, which has been the very storm center of the neutrality debates, still has found time, while our attention was

.{diverted, to complete the negotia-

tion of a trade agreement with our South American neighbor, Argentina,” Rep. Harness asserted. ~~ “It has found time to proceed with negotiations which will-lead to a Parallel: agreement with Chile and

ruguay. “Repeatedly in the past I have protested against the New Deal tariff policy. Heretofore I have stressed the fact that while the trade agreements have seriously inJjured American agriculture, the primary damages have been inflicted upon American industry and labor. “But in the present instance the man on the farm is the direct, the immediate and practically the sole victim. “You will find that every one of the items on the list under consideration in the proposed treaty with Argentina is a raw product. You will be surprised that every one of them now paying duty, with the two exceptions, are the everyday things you find ‘American farmers producing.”
