FUNDS LACKING "FOR NEW COURTS

Cox Cites Need of Financial Provision for County Magistrates.

The test case uncer the new Magistrates Court: Act: was temporarily jammed ‘over a financial problem today. - Circuit Court Judge Earl R. Cox, who said he is disposed to appoint two magistrate courts for the county as asked in a petition by county residents, said there apparently are no funds set up to provide court rooms or pay magistrates’ salaries. Attorneys for the petitioners, and county attorneys who are fighting the petition, were asked to submit briefs on the money question.

Commissioners Opposed

County Commissioners, through county attorneys John’ Linder: and - Carl Seet, are opposed to setting up the courts on ground there is no

necessity for them, and that estab-:

lishment would create an unnecessary expense. Ira Holmes, attorney for the petitioners, contends that the courts are needed. In support of his conten“tion, Mr. Holmes called six township Justices of the peace to testify concerning the criminal cases they have handled. The act was designed to eliminate

“speed traps” and take all jurisdic-4

tion in traffic cases from the ul. Ps.”

Robinson Makes Plea

The hearing in Circuit Court yesterday was attended by Prof. J. J. Robinson of Indiana University, who assisted in drafting the new law. He appealed to Circuit Court and attorneys “to make .an honest effort to carry out the intentions of the law and set an example for the 81 other counties in the state.” County attorneys contend that the law is “unconstitutional, inconsistent, ambiguous and unworkable.” In the county's remonstrance, the new act is charged with threatening deprive defendants of trial by ury. 2 :

Rep. Schulte Gives Indiana C. of C. the Cold Shoulder

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, April 16.—Rep. William T. Schulte (D. Ind.) an-

nounced today that he has declined

an invitation to attend an Indiana State Chamber of Commerce .din-

nér here, such as was held during the U. S. Chamber of Commerce convention last year. At that time, Lothair Teetor, Hagerstown manufacturer, presided and lectured the Indiana delegation on their alleged misdeeds, concluding that they should look to the State Chamber for guidance in the future. The invitation to a similar dinner to be held here May 1 was received by Rep. Schulte from Clarence A. Jackson, former Indiana tax director and now an official of the State Chamber. : The Lake County Congressman made public the following reply to-

y: “This will acknowledge the receipt of your invitation to again attend the Indiana State Chamber of Commerce dinner here in Washington. “Clarence, I do not blame you, but certainly the officers must think I am a glutton for punishment, and

that they can sit me in a corner, and after buying my dinner, insult me. Never again shall they have that opportunity. “No doubt you realize and appreciate the fact that I represent a laboring district and was a working man myself—and I am definitely not going to sit idly by and allow any organization to attempt to chastise the New Deal and a great many of its laws without some opportunity to answer them. “I am mighty happy to state that I believe after last year’s dinner, when the news got out of what was attempted, that it did more to solidity the laboring man and show him who his real enemies were than anything I know. “So allow me to state that I must decline your invitation.”

Jackson Withholds Comment on Refusal

Clarence ‘A. Jackson, State Chamber of Commerée manager, declined to comment today on Rep. William T. Schulte's refusal to attend the Chamber's dinner in Washington. Mr. Jackson said he has not yet received Rep. Schulte’s letter and would have no comment until he has read it.

'One in a Million" Mishap Is Fatal

NEW YORK, April 16 (U. P). -The Medical Examiner's Office reported today that the explosion of anesthetic gas which killed Mrs. Duncan J. Sutphen Jr. while she was being prepared for an operation, was an accident that would not occur more than “once in a million” times. It happened yesterday In Sloane Hospital for Women while Mrs. Sutphen, socially-prominent wife of an advertising executive and motMer of two children, was about to undergo a minor gynecological operation requiring only 10 minutes. The pressure bag, from which the anesthetic gas was being run through a tube into the patient’s mceuth, exploded into fragments. Surgeons examined Mrs. Sutphen, decided she had not been injured by the explosion, and proceeded with the operation. Twe hours later Mrs. Sutphen suffered a relapse. Then it was discovered that the explosion had _ruptured her windpipe and bronchi, the tubes leading out from the windpipe. She died in an heur. Dr. Raymond B. Miles, assistant medical examiner, said, “apparently what caused the explosion was a static spark inside the rubber bag caused from the rubbing together of a bit of wool and glass or metal. That generated static electricity just as you sometimes do by rubbing your feet

over a thick carpet.”

EDITOR CRITICIZES COMMODITY ‘WASTE’

Hoosier housewives last year paid 59.5 per cent more for food commodities than the farmer who produced ‘ them received, according to Edmond C. Foust, editor of the Hoosier Farmer. Mr. Poust, citing Department of Agriculture figures, said that on 58 food commodities that cost the consumer $311, farmers received but $126. “Processing, handling and transportation accounted for a certain share of this amount,” he said. “On the other hand, unnecessary operations certainly came in for too great a portion. 3 “Almost every commodity comes stamped and tied with a ribbon. Housewives have forgotten how to slice bacon or bread, and most people’s back yards each spring have a pile of cans, cartons and wrappings ready for the junk heap, as evidence that when housewives bought their groceries, they got less food for their dollars

and a lot of contajners for which they could find no use,” he said.

JURY REOPENS

TRUSTEE PROBE

Purported Pre-election Agreement by Thomas Investigated.

_ The Marion County Grand Jury today was conducting a new probe

into the affairs of Henry M.

Thomas, Warren Township Trustee, accused of signing a pre-election agreement with his two campaign

| managers.

A dozen witnesses in the case were heard yesterday and additional testimony was presented today. The purported agreement gave Fred Rubin, 5825 Oak Ave. and H. N. White, 6570 E. 10th St., authority over the letting of contracts and appointing of township employees. It read: “I, the under-signed, of my own free will, agree to consult

{and abide with the advice of Fred

Ruben and H. N. White, jointly, in all matters pertaining to this campain, and results there-of, as in-

| eluding all appointments and letting

of contracts, as trustee of Warren

Township. Signed, H. M. Thomas.”

The purported agreement was dated July 28, 1938, after Mr. Thomas had won the: Republican

nomination for Trustee, and before|

the election. The Grand Jury investigated the situation last summer without taking any action. When the agreement became public, Mr. White said he and Mr. Rubin‘ had Mr. Thomas sign the agreement in order to make it impossible for him to make any campaign promises and to permit him to take office without any political obligations. Mr. Thomas declined to comment, other than to state he and Mr. White had burned their copies of the agreement shortly after Mr. Thomas took office.

CHRISTIAN - SCIENGE LEADER SPEAKS HERE

Judge Frederick C. Hill, C. S. B., Los Angeles, Cal., last night gave a Christian Science lecture in Cadle Tabernacle. He is a member of the Board of Lectureship of the mother church, the First; Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. ¥ Judge Hill said in part that “the history of the human r is an unfolding record of mankind's endeavor to grasp the meaning of substance and supply... . . Religion has been an important factor in the affairs of mankind, and from canonical writings the fact is disclosed that substance and supply are to be found in the mental realm and not in the material world. “Instead ‘of knowing and understanding ‘what substance is, mankind has believed and accepted something—that life, substance and intelligence are in matter—and this believing has separated him from God; hence, the need for salvation, the need for a Redeemer.”
