California Forecast
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7 (U. P.). —A plan to provide a lifetime “dole” for all unemployed citizens Over 50 years old was offered California voters for the second time today. A npar- record vote was forecast. ape proposition was the “Ham and Eggs” per tion plan which had been branded “fantastic” by President Roosevelt and “unconstitutional” by Governor Culbert Olson. Theoretically it would pay 30 onedollar warrants each Thursday for life to all citizens over 50 who are neither employees nor employers. It was in the form of a Constitutional amendment. Betting odds were about 5 to 1 that it would lose,
Pension of $50 Monthly To Old Folks Ohio Issue
| COLUMBUS, O., Nov, 7 (U. P.).— Ohio votes today on whether to pay its old folks $50 a month. An off-year record number of voters—2,500,000—go to the polls to show how they feel about the plan to increase the present old-age pension, which averdges $23 a month to persons over 65, to $50 a month to single persons over 60 and $80 for married couples over that age. The plan is that of the Rev. Herbert S. Bigelow, 69, former Cincinnati Congressman, who said it would cost Ohio about $60,000,000 a year. To finance it; the Rev. Mr. Bigelow suggested a special 2 per cent levy on land vaiued at more than $20,000 an acre and a state income tax onefourth of the Federal levy. State officials say this plan would yield only $140,000,000 a year, while pension costs would cost $310,000,000 a year.

something more than make mere paper complaints regarding the British blockade.” The German spokesman asserted that the neutrals have “let Britain hold their ships for weeks on end without doing anything about it” and that “such an attitude is scarcely consistent with true neutrality.” Back of the German contention, observers presumed, was the. belief that if the neutrals around Germany insisted on getting their shipping through without delay, more supplies would become available to Germany.
Anti-Aircraft Guns Heard
Belgian pursuit planes made extensive flights all over that country last night. Belgian anti-aircraft guns were fired around Liege and Malines, ‘with what results was not known. Worried crowds in the rain outside the palace also saw Prince Bernhard, husband of the Crown Princess, get into his car and drive hurriedly away, and return a few minutes later at the same high speed, as if he had taken an important message somewhere. This eemed to have been the peace teleams.
Hurries Back Home
Then King Leopold left for Brussels by auto just jwo hours before an extraordinary session of the Belgian Cabiffét was to meet. The crowds in The Hague shouted “Long Live King Leopold” as he bid farewell “to Queen Wilhelmina and kissed her hand. Simultaneously, as Fuehrer Adolf Hitler conferred with Field Marshal Herrmann Wilhelm Goering, Gen. Walther von Brauchitsch, Army commander in chief and Gen. Wilhelm Keitel, Army High Command chief, German newspapers made strong attacks on the small neutrals, charging them with failure to defend their neutrality in the face of the British blockade A test case should have been forced long ago, the papers said.

While Belgium and Holland held most attention, other neutrals also had their worries. - : Norway once more defied German contentions in the case of the

In that celebration today 50,000 picked Soviet troops and 1,000,000 civilians paraded through Red Square. War Commissar Klementi Voroshilov thundered to the crowds that “We shall take no part in war,”
prepared to protect its interests. - In Italy, Europe’s second gregtest neutral, there was a newspaper charge by Virginio Gayda, often Premier Benito Mussolini's spokesman, that Russia was not peacefully inclined but had! adopted a 0d structive” policy | of aggrand ment. “For 20 years Moscow has worked only for war in expectation of a world revolution,” Sig.

As for military developments, the French were elated by a great victory in the first major aerial engagement of the war. They claimed nine American-made pursuit planes shot downr'nine of 27 German planes ‘that crossed ‘the lines yesterday. The French said they suffered no losses. Berlin claimed to have brought down two French and one British plane. On the ground, the French still eld the Forbach salient which dominates Germany's Saar Valley industries.

“If our ship-owners don’t understand that they should be made to do so. Certainly we who supported changes in the law intended to prevent such things.
Ludlow Agrees With Him
“One of the underlying causes of radicalism ia this country is such evidences of resorting to fraud for the sake of 'greed.” Rep. Louis Ludlow (D. Ind), author of the Ludlow war referendum amendment, backed Senator Van Nuys’ proposal for amending the law to prevent such transfers in the future. He voted against lifting the arms embargo. “This ship transfer looks very much like a questionable procedure to evade the law keeping U. S. ships ouh of the war zone,” Rep. Ludlow; said. “As soon as the war is over they will undoubtedly transfer back under the American flag where they helong. It certainly is a hazardous step: which might lead the United States into dire consequences.”
: ‘Operators Defend Move
By transferring the ships to Panamanian registry the vessels could, by employing foreign crews, engage in trade with the belligerent ports, carrying arms and munitions as well as other commodities. United States Line operators argued that such a
nomically necessary. to maintain a profitable level of operation. Otherwise, the ships would be without cargo. The United States Lines asked to transfer nine of its vessels but the Commission -consented to consider the application of only eight. These were the American Shipper, American Banker, American Trader, American Traveler, American Farmer, American Importer, American Merchant, and either the President Roosevelt or the President Harding. The United States Lines has received more than $2,000,000 annually in operating subsidies from the Maritime Commission but the Commission said.the company had full and complete title to the vessels. Senators Gerald P. Nye (R. N. D.) njand Bennett C. Clark (D. Mo.) charged” that the proposed transfer was “certainly a violation of the neutrality act, in spirit at least.” A Presidential proclamation issued Saturday forbids American ships from sailing to any belligerent port and from passing through a wide “combat zone” around European belligerent countries. |

P) ~The War Office announced today that French troops were still holding “the For-bach-Spicheren salient, dominating the industrialized Saar Valley, which the Germans have been shelling for five days. The Germar artillery action on the salient was reduced yesterday, it was announced, and there still had been no advance there by German tanks or infantrymen, although the Germans were entrenched north, east and west of the salient and will have to occupy it before they can resume any of the iron, coal and steel operations in the Saar. The salient is on a piece of French territory| jutting into Germany,

The French left the salient’s left flank exposed when they withdrew Oct. 16 from the Warndt Forest. ; Today’s communique announced, however, that the French still held two villages snd two commanding hills at the outskirts of the forest, thus affording the Forbach salient some flank protection. -It was announced that the French had repulsed two raiding parties east of Saarlouis which had constituted the only notable land action yesterday, and that details of the big French air victory yesterday would be announced tonight.
U. S. Planes Victorious
It had been annqunced that nine French pursuit planes — Curtiss fighters bought in the United States —had attacked a squadron of 27 German pursuit planes yesterday and had brought down nine of the German planes and driven the rest away without the loss of a single French plane, The battle was described in an enthusiastic communique last night as the greatest of its kind since the war started. Each of the French planes, it was said, had brought down one German plane. Seven German planes fell in French territory and two behind the German lines; it. was said, and the French pilots gave high praise to their American craft which had outfought and out-maneuvered - the faster German Messerschmidts.

SAFETY FOR BUS PUPILS SOUGHT
Police Asked to ‘Crack Down’ on Cars That Pass Standing Vehicles.
‘By TIM TIPPETT
Parents and school officials in several Marion County townships today asked County and State Police to “crack down” on motorists who pass school busses loading and unloading children. At the same time they declared that school busses are so crowded that proper rear visibility for the bus driver is impossible. Parents of pupils of Lowell school in Warren Township have signed a petition to Don Stiver, State Safety director and superintendent of the Indiana State police.
Cite Road 67 Danger
The petition asks for adequate safety signs and road patrols to protect children at the bus stops on Emerson and Troy Aves. ‘A stream of Beech Grove workers’ cars have created a “hazardous condition,” according to E. C. Eash, Warren Central High School principal. In Decatur Township busses travel for more than three miles
on Road 67, one of the main arteries|
leading into the City. As in Warren Township, the Decatur Central busses are crowded and rear visibility is at a Sina, parents claim.
75 on Some Busses
About 600 of the 885 pupils in Decatur Township ride the eight township busses each day, according to James N. Jay, Decatur Central principal. Despite the fact that Decatur Township has all new busses which comply with the State Safety statutes loads range from 55 to 75, Don Seerley, a township bus driver, said. Mr. Seerley confirmed reports that speeding motorists on Road 67 sometimes passed the busses while they were stopped on the highway. i “We haven't had an accident for the last eight years,” Mr. Seerley said, “but it might happen tonight.
to protect our children.”
Mars Hill Zone Worst
Mr. Seerley said that most violations of the passing law were committed on Road 67 between Holt Road and 4th Ave. in Mars Hill. “We have planned the bus routes so that children do not have fo cross the highway to reach their bus but often the children want to ride another bus and run across the road. The presence of a State Policeman might put a stop to this hazard,” Mr. Seerley said. Mrs. Seerley, who is president of the grade school P.-T. A, and Mr. Jay said they would welcome police protection. ’ Enforcement Difficult As for the legal side of the overloading an Indiana Statyte states that the “health, safety’ comfort” of pupils riding the busses must be provided. , Stiver in “Rules of Safety— To Ne Observed by School Bus Drivers and Pupil Passengers,” states that “No school bus shall be started until all children are seated and the doors are closed.” He also states in the Rules that “No pupils shall stand or move from place to place during the trip.” Capt. Walter Eckert of the State Police has explained that it is almost impossible for the lice to enforce these rules because “if we took it ourt the judge woulda know that the township just didn’t have enough money to buy agai tional busses.” “Not Enough Money”
Mr, Eash, when requested to place an additional bus in service in Warren Township confirmed Capt. Eckert’s stand by saying that “overloading is a matter of not having enough money.” Meanwhile Marion County Sheriff Al Feeney pledged his support in escorting school “busses whenever complaints are received of violations by motorists. “We have arrested about 10 drivers for passing loading or unloading busses in the last few weeks and we will try to investigate every complaint we get, and if necessary follow the busses until the safety
BERGEN, Norway, Nov. 7 U.| P.).—The Government announced at Oslo today that the German prize crew taken from the American freighter City of Flint would be moved tomorrow to the 300-year-‘old Kongsvinger - Castle near the Swedish border and there interned, presumably for the (duration of the war.
