MOVE TO

REVIV

HATCH ACT MADE

House Committee Which

Tabled Measure Will Hear

Motion to Reconsider; Members Hurry to Sign Discharge Petition.

Timer Special

WASHINGTON,

today for a move within the House Judiciary Committee to reconsider the action by which it tabled the Hatch Bill. | By such a move the Committee could clear its record of the strange and secret vote sidetracking this measure to curb political exploitation of state agencies which receive Federal

funds, A motion to reconsider will! be made by Rep. Abe Mur-| dock (D. Utah) when the Committee meets Tuesday.

A canvass bv Rep. John J. Demp- |

sey (D. N. M.), House sponsor of the bill, indicated not only that the Committee would reconsider its pre- | vious action, but that ,mesmbers would be put on record, with no written ballots which were tossed into Chairman Hatton Sumners' hat to table the measure, Two developments have produced ® change of front within the Committee,

Rush to Sign Petition

One was the headlong rush of House members to sign a discharge petition to force the Judiciary Committee to yield up the bill and submit it to the floor. Nearly half

enough names were written on the petition. filed by Rep. Dempsey, on the figst dav. A total of 218 is required. a ma-

jority of the House. One hundred

and three names were affixed to the petition when the House recessed last night for the week-end. The other impelling force was the criticism and ridicule heaped on the Judiciary Committee for its secret, ballot, and the subsequent “confusion” over the vote when 14 members said, in answer to inquiry, that they had voted against tabling the bill. As announced officially, 14 votes were cast to table the measure, with only 10 against. This discrepancy made the whole procedure a laughing stock in the House lobbies. Members were put in an absurd position before constituents back home.

G. 0. P. Group Backs Murdock

The Judiciary up of lawyers, is rather dignified body, siders itself. Republican members of the committee promptly joined Rep. Murdock in his move to reconsider. Denouncing the secret procedure, as he had done within the commit - tee itself in executive session, Rep U. 8S. Guyver (R. Kas), ranking minority member, announced that a canvass disclosed that all 10 minority members, with possibly one exception. would vote to reconsider. Both he and Rep. Murdock said it was certain there would be no more casting of ballots in the chairman’s hat. Sponsors of the bill believe that a record vote would result in reversal of the tabling motion. The committee then would proceed with its consideration of the measure, but, this time under the gun, so to speak, of the discharge petition whereby members of the House can force action.

Committee, made normally =a or so con-

Sumners Secretive

Under House parliamentary rules, by which the Judiciary Committee sometimes governs itself, two-thirds would be required for reconsidera-

tion, or 18 of the 26 members. However, the Committee procedure is rather informal, and the chairman may rule that only simple majority is sufficient. Chairman Sumners, who did not vote on the tabling motion, declined to say what procedure he would follow. In addition to 13 committeemen who told reporters yesterday they had voted against tabling, a 14th, Rep. Walter (D. Pa), today asserted that he also voted against. He was chairman of the subcommittee which approved the bill weeks ago.

House Fges of NLRB Insist Upon Changes

WASHINGTON, May ¢ (UP) House foes of the National Labor Relations Board were determined today to eall up pending amendments to the Wagner Labor Act despite the chamber's rejection of =ll changes in the wage-hour law, Some members favoring Wagner Act revision heard reports yesterday that the fight would be abandaned after the House had voted 205 to 175 to recommit all wagehour amendments to the Labor Committee. But Chairman Howard W. Smith of the special committee investigating the Labor Board assured them that he will call up his proposed amendments to provide 17 drastic changes. The only eight Indiana Representatives who voted on the wagehour legislation supported recommittal. They were Reps. John W. Boehne Jr, William H. Larrabee and Louis Ludlow, Democrats, and George W. Gillle, Robert Grant, Noble Johnson, Gerald Landis and Raymond S. Springer, Republicans he labor act dispute taces = legislative situation almost identical to that prevailing when the tag:hour fight first was presented to the House. The Chamber will have a choice between the limited amendments offered by Chairman Mary T. Norton of the Labor Committee and Smith's broad proposals. Oonditions for consideration are virtually the same: Smith amendments, rejected by the Labor Cemmittee, have been offered by rule ms & Substitute for the Norion amendments, In the wage-hour fight similarly rejected amendments by Rep. Graham A, Barden (D. N.C) were brought to the floor through the medium of approved Norton amendments. House rejection of the wage-hour amendments came after seven days of tmultuous debate, It carried out | the objective President Roosevelt putlined in & letter to Mrs. Norton at the outset of the fight. He asked that the law be allowed to stand

WASHINGTON, May & (U. P).— Supporters of the Hatch bill neared |

the half-way mark today in their effort to bring the measure ot the floor through a discharge petition.

When the house Aajoupned yesterday, a total of 103 mem cluding at least three from Rg had signed the petition filed by Rep. John J. Dempsey (D. N. M.). A majority of the House membership, or 218, is necessary.

ARMY PLANE FUND BOOST PREDICTED

WASHINGTON, Mav 4 (U. P) Chairman Elmer Thomas of the Senate Military ‘Appropriations Subcommittee said today that expert testimony indicating American warplanes are inferior to those of the German air force may prompt committee members to add $20.000,000 for 106 latest-type aircraft to the pending Army Bill for additional planes, He said that testimony of Maj Gen. H. H, Arnold, chief of the Ah Corps, and other Army officials convinced the committee that developments in the northern Fumopean war show American planes “are not as good &s Germanys although there are indications that all German technical advances will be available to our technical engineers.”

ASSEMBLY CANDIDATE URGES PRIMARY VOTE

DEWEY CITES PENN IN CAMPAIGN PLEA

WICHITA, Kas, May ¢" (U. P). Thomas E. Dewey, the New candidate for the Republican Presidential nomination, was en route to Towa today, apparently fully recovered from an illness that interrupted his campaign tour for four days. Mr. Dewey resumed his campaign speaking here last night when he recalled the days of William Penn and praised the Quaker conception of “individual integrity.” He spoke at a fellowship dinner sponsored by Friends University. Mr. Dewey said that Penn and the early Quakers in Pennsylvania “foresaw what we 250 years later are beginning to see—that excessive reliance upon Government has the effect of weakening the individual fiber of the people.” “The Government must not forsake its obligation to care for the unemployed, the sick and the aged, Mr. Dewey said, but in thus serving its people the Government should “not be allowed to create the impression that it is itself a benevodent provider to whom all gratitude is due.”

FOR

Apprecia- | today

Major issues that will be included

in the Indiana Republican conven- |’ :

{tion platform likely will be planks {for home rule, protective tariffs for

|farm products and budget reduc|tions, according to State G.O.P. [Chairman Arch N. Bobbitt. The popular trend toward these | three main issues was disclosed at platform forum hearings conducted by the State G.O.P. central committee in every Congressional dis-| trict during the last three weeks, | Mr. Bobbitt said. At these forum sessions, the last | of which was held at Greenfield | | Thursday, hundreds of citizens were | invited to give suggestions for the | Republican platform.

Home Rule Sentiment Noted “Most of the testimony which was recorded for general study re- |

vealed a preponderance of senti- | ment for more home rule authority | in the small communities,” Mr. Bobbitt said.

In the rural districts many farmers appeared before the Republican! program committee urging a glat-| form plank in favor of more trite protection for their tarm market as against the New Deal prorat | of reciprocal trade treaties with | foreign nations. Mr. Bobbitt said one plank tat ix certain to be in the Republican | platform this year will deal with budget reductions in every depart-| ment of State and county govern-| ment. Spending Cut Demanded | “Nearly every citizen who testi-| fied at the forum hearings de-| manded a halt in spending,” Bobbitt said. Other issues raised at these hear- | ings included local option in liquor] sales and appeals for extension of the merit system to all departments! 'of the State government. Antisaloon League and W.C.T.U. lead-| ers appeared before the platform | committee in several smaller com- | munities in the State appealing for local option support. Party leaders, however, indicated they may not include a liquor plank in the platform. | One party leader said the local] option issue is not State-wide in character but is confined to scattered localities.

Ask Merit Extension

The Indiana League of Women Voters presented an appeal to the G.O. P. hearing at Greenfield yesterday for extension of merit system | selection of employees to State [benevolent amd penal institutions. Several of the Republican guber- | natorial candidates have been stressing the home rule policy of government in their campaign speeches, Outstanding of these home rule candidates is Glen R. Hillis of Kokomo who advocates less concentration of power in the State government in nearly every speech. Recently he said: “If we loge our grip on home rule, we will plunge headlong into outright dictatorship. For the past several vears a highly complicated machine has been under construction here in Indiana. to such an extent that you can no longer run vour own home town, your own township or your own county, whatever it may be.’

Hammering That Resulted in Alarm.

Early today, Officers C. B.

The call came When the squad car got there, Officer Crouch went to the front door and

Officer Springer ran around to the back, gun drawn. Officer Crouch says he saw Aa figure move away from the safe in the front part of the store and disappear. Officer Springer found no other | exits except one rear door and three heavy iron screens. There was a bicycle and leather coat there and the only unscreened window was broken about 10 feet from the ground. Meanwhile the police radio sums moned other officers. The store was full of guns and ammunition, Police

At Police Headquarters they had notified Carl Genrich, 3309 Arlington Ave. store manager, to .come to {open the door. He said it would take him 45 minutes.
