Times Special

WASHINGTON, May 9.—A Central Clearance Index, which will eliminate duplication of relief efforts by all governmental agencies, Is to be established at Terre Haute, Ind, Rep. Louis Ludlow (D. Ind.) was notified today by Lowell Mellett, director of the Office of Government Reports. Mr. Mellett’s letter to Mr. Ludlow follows in part: “You will, IT am sure, be interested to learn that Indiana is the first state since the successful demonstration in West Virginia to complete arrangements for the installation of a Central Clearance Index. ‘Plans are under way in many othér states, but Governor M. Clifford Townsend vesterday made available the funds to start a demonstratior. Index in Terre Haute. sO Indiana will be next on the list. “The first unit of the Indiana Index will be set up in Terre Haute to cover Clay, Sullivan, Vigo and

Vermillion Counties. The demonstration district has a ‘population of | approximately 270,000 and a relief! population of nearly 25,000. “The Index will be financed by| the State for a period of five months, | including the time necessary for installation and a three months’ op- | eration. After that period, the op-| erating costs will be pro-rated | among the participating agencies. | “It is expected that the Terre Haute demonstration will be so suc- | cessful that a complete clearance] service will soon be provided for the | balance of the State.”

the appearance not of cells but of hospital wards. There will be one block of honor rooms. Inmates of these rooms will be free to leave them at will but the exact time of their goings and comings will be recorded electrically. The prison will have no wall around it, but there will be an eight-foot woven steel fence with three watchtowers. At one side of the prison will be the staff houses, at the other will be the farm buildings. Inside the fence will be the workshops. The exterior of the prison will be brick with limestone trim, the interior, cement blocks. A minimum of tool-proof steel is being used. The penitentiary is being erected on a total appropriation of $3,000,000. Its cost of $2600 per inmate is said to be one of the lowest per unit of any during the past 10 years. A total of 1200 acres of alluvial land on the Wabash River will be farmed by the prisoners.

PROTECT GOATS. LUDLOW PLEADS

Hoosier Asks House to Ban Use of Animals in Testing Bomb.

Times Special WASHINGTON, May 9.— Rep. Louis Ludlow (D. Ind), author of the war referendum amendment proposal, today extended his peace efforts into the animal kingdom by

pleading with his House colleagues to prevent the new Barlow bomb from blowing up any goats, It seems that a Joint COongressional Committee is planning a goat test with the new bomb and Rep. Ludlow produced letters from Army and Navy ordnance experts to show that this is not necessary. Instruments can make these tests and no animals need be sacrificed the officers stated. Meanwhile, at Baltimore, Md. Lester P. Barlow, the inventor, flayed “people who turn humane work into a racket” and announced | that he will demonstrate his new explosive—which he describes as the world’s most deadly—on live goats at Aberdeen, Md, May 16,

Suit ¥s Dismissed

The last legal obstacle to the show apparently was cleared away with dismissal Monday, in the Towson County Court, of an injunction suit brought by a Chicago pet magazine to prevent use of live animals to prove the power of the liquid oxygen and carbon explosive, Mr. Barlow charged that the suit “was only a publicity stunt by the magazine people.” . The tests are to be. conducted for the benefit of Congréssional committees which decided to look into Mr. Barlow's invention after it had been rejected by Army officials on the grounds ®t was impracticable and could not be handled safely, | “I hope that this will be “Kind | to Dumb Animals Week” in the | Congress of the United States,” Rep. | Ludlow cried in his appeal.

Asks Decision Be Changed

“I hope that the Joint Congres-| sional Committee, created to inves- § tigate the Barlow liquid oxygen bomb, will be touched by the spirit! of kindliness and humaneness and will not permit the week to end without rescinding its decision to use live animals in testing that bomb which is heralded as the most | deadly instrument of death and destruction ever invented.” Rep. Ludlow also made public a letter from Senator Frederick Van- | Nuys (D. Ind) indorsing his pro-| posal to make the war referendum | amendment a part of the platform |B
