LAWNS SUBJECT OF NURSERYMEN INSESSION HERE

City Nationally Known for Landscaping Interest, Convention Told.

The hardest part about landscaping a new home is getting a satisfactory lawn, Alex Tuschinsky, Indianapolis, warned ' prospective home builders as the Indiana Association of Nurserymen met here today for a two-day convention. Mr. TuscRinsky, the Association’s president, said the reason so many persons have trouble with new lawns is that they don’t have enough top “soil. : “You need about 8 inches of good » black topsoil to get a nice stand of grass,” he said. “However, when the average new home is built, the natural topsoil is covered with clay Subset from the basement excavaon.” Urges Careful Choice

Mr. Tuschinsky recommended seeding a new lawn, rather than sodding, because “it is cheaper and,

once in, lasts longer.” ATLANTA-—Leander Smith, 82. Survivors: He advised the prospective owner | son, Morris; daughter, Mrs. Mary Essig;

° God bless the land I live in Where the lights are always bright Where no liberties are shackled Where there’s peace instead of fight Where the home is all important Where there’s hope and faith and cheer Where our food is never rationed And we all enjoy our beer.

It’s in beer we find contentment When the hard day’s work is done. For in beer there’s keen enjoyment With good fellowship and fun. It’s a tonic for the weary It’s refreshment for the thirst It’s the kind of stimulation That makes happiness come first.

It’s the beverage of the people Rich and poor alike drink beer For its cold and tangy goodness For its mellowness and cheer. Take myself—I'm all for Sterling Made the good old-fashioned way In the state of Indiana : In the good old U. S. A. Where they add no sweets or sugar To the grain the farmers grow Where they bottle beer that’s wholesome And the calories are low.

So God bless the land I live in Where there’s peace instead of fight May our beer be always mellow And our lights be ever bright May we keep our bread and butter Topped with good old home-made jam - And keep loyalty a-living In our hearts for Uncle Sam.

COUGHLIN TO BE BATTLE CENTER “IN DIES INQUIRY

Prestige of Priest Believed Lower. After Arrest of Christian Fronters:

By LUDWELL DENNY Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.—Father Coughlin will be: the center of the biggest battle in the revived Dies Committee. The Committee, whose life the House is extending, has been criticized for allegedly protecting the radio priest and the “Christian Front” organization in its investiga-tion.-Now the Rev. Mr. Coughlin has fewer friends here. Arrest of 17 New York members of the Christian Front on charges

‘| of plotting to overthrow the Gov-

ernment, accusations of Rep. Frank E. Hook of Michigan yesterday that Chairman Martin Dies is “in active association, with a prominent collaborator of the Christian Front,” and Father Coughlin’s support of that organization, have made this one of the hottest subjects on Capitol Hill. In its recent report the Dies Committee quoted testimony linking the name of Father Coughlin’s publication, Social Justice, and the Christian Front with Fritz Kuhn, Ger-man-American Bund leader now in prison for misuse of funds. Prestige Suffers Father Coughlin’s prestige has suffered here since the Federal Government arrested the Christian

that Mr. Coughlin knew of .any such plot, despite the Coughlin quotation put in the Congressional Record by Rep. Samuel Dickstein (D. N. Y)): “— We will fight you in Franco’s way, if necessary.” But there is a widespread feeling that Mr. Coughlin’s appeal to racial hatred and political strife inflames persons of the Christian Front type, who acclaim him as their inspiration. His disavowal of the Christian Front organization, immediately after the arrests, and his later reverse statement—“I do not disassociate myself from that movement; I reaffirm every word which I have said in advocating its formation“— have not helped him here. : The so-called protection accorded Mr. Coughlin by the Dies Committee resulted from a variety of causes. One group was sympathetic with his attacks on the Adminis-

‘|tration. Another group hesitated to

offend Catholics. And the. small liberal group feared that an investigation might boomerang and make a martyr of him. Note Pope’s Criticism

But these considerations are now less potent. Some -of those who liked his attacks on the Administration do not want to\appear sympathetic with the arrested Christian Fronters. ; Some of those who were afraid of offending the Catholic Church noted the Pope's recent criticism of misuse of the radio, generally interpreted as aimed at Mr. Coughlin. They have been impressed by the current editorial of the Commonweal, Catholic magazine, ‘naming Father Coughlin and his publication as responsible for inflaming the arrested plotters against the Government: “Father Coughlin, the Brooklyn Tablet, Social Justice and their many abettors and sympathizers must bear the direct responsibility for the plight of these 17 young men.” : And those who feared they might make a martyr of him now think he has too completely discredited himself to be martyr material for any considerable portion of the American electorate.

pressure for a Dies Committee investigation of Mr. Coughlin and the Christian Front may be more successful than in the past.

YOUNG BANDIT ROBS LIQUOR STORE OF $20

SHIP FIRE BLAMED ON FAULTY PISTON

GENOA, Italy, Jan. 23 (U. P.).— The rescue liners Conte Biancamano and Colombo arrived today with 511 survivors from the burned Italian passenger ship Orazio and a report of how a defective piston apparently started the fire aboard the liner off the French Mediterranean coast. The Conte Biancamano carried 318 survivors and the Colombo had 193 aboard. Many were suffering from bruises, shock and burns. Crew members said the heat from the fire exploded a tank of naphtha, which rapidly spread the blaze in a strong wind. The Orazio carried 414 passengers and 231 crew, Despite a statement by the Italian consulate at Marseilles that it was believed all the passengers had been saved, authorities here feared 90 persons had been lost. .
