At City Hall—

CAN THE MAYOR SUCCEED SELF?

Mr. Deery Looks in. One Tome and Then the Other —But Still. No Answer.

By RICHARD LEWIS Can the Mayor of Indianapolis legally succeed himself? There was some confusion on this point at City Hall yesterday. The confusion arose, out of innocent speculation on the 1942 Mayoralty race. The boys in the “know” said absolutely the Mayor cannot succeed

% himself. There’s a law against it,

they said. But the City’s legal minds weren't

men, chief doorkeepers, postmasters, |so sure about this point. To a man,

principal and assigtany sergeants-at-arms. State Chairman Arch N. Bobbitt is to preside both ag tomorrow’s and Friday’s meetings.

they began to lo®k it up.

The quest for.truth, they found, was & long and tortuous experience. After hours perusing many heavy lawbooks, microscopically printed, the situation was still up in the air.

City Controller James E.' Deery fell into the same trap that had caught some of the City Legal Department members. He began looking into the lawbooks.

“Let’s see,” he mused, taking down from the shelf a likely looking tome. “Let’s see. Hmmm. Can’t find anything in some of these revised editions.” He turned to a thicker book and leafed through the pages. “Hmmm. Let’s see.” He got up and went into a closet, emerging with a book. so large it dwarfed all of the ponderous volumes he had studied. “Ha ha! Here it is,” he said. “Section 10,266, Volume 3, Burns‘ Revised Statutes, 1926. It says: ‘No person ishall be eligible to hold the same elective office except the office of ¢ity judge for more than four

‘|years in any period of eight years

in cities of the first class.” Only the Beginning

But that, was only the beginning. Section 29-1809 of Burns’ R. S., 1933, Vol. 7, merely says ‘that the elected officials of a city of the first class shall take office Jan. 1 after their election and serve four years and until a “duly qualified successor” has been elected. It says nothing about an elected official succeeding himself. And in the next paragraph it

g says that all previous laws in con-

flict with this provision are hereby repealed. But this is not all. It merely begins to get interesting. Mr. Deery turned to Section 481242 of Burns’ R. 8S. 1933, Vol. 9. There he found a compiler’'s notation which said that in all probability the revised 1933 law does not

mullify the 1926 statutory provision

about the mayor not succeeding himself. Supreme Court, Huh?

Mr. Deery placed the book gently: down atop the pile of other books. “It looks,” said he, “ag though the question is . . well, it looks as though it might take a Supreme Court decision to figure it out.” Officials did not seek the opinion of Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan on the question of whether or not he can succeed himself. They knew that whether he can or he can’t . . . he won't.

RITES TOMORROW FOR MRS. YANAWAY

gervices for Mrs. Edna Yanaway, who died Monday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. R.-E. Lacey, 717 E. 33d St., will be held at 10 a. m. tomorrow at the Little & Son’s Funeral Home.. Burial will be at Oak Park Cemetery in Bloomington, Ind. : / Mrs. Yanaway was 65 and lived with her daughter here for several years. Born in Ellgttsville, Ind, she moved to Casey, Ill, in 1893 and two years later was married to Thomas R. Yanaway, who died in 1935. Mrs. .Yanaway wgs a United Brethren Church member and was active in the Order of Eastern Star in Casey. Surviving besides Mrs. Lacey are a son, Samuel’ T., of Tueson, Ariz; two other daughters, Mrs. Willis Letner of Indianapolis and Mrs. Joe Greeson of Toledo, Ill.; two brothers G. B.

WARS SEEN AS

‘RETRIBUTION T0 IRRELIGIOUS

Man Losing His Touch With Reality, Says Christian Mission Speaker.

Today's wars and the dictators waging them- are retribution for a Christian world that has failed to follow God, two leaders of the National Christian Mission said today. The Mission, which opened Sunday, is to continue through next Sunday. The speakers who developed thls | theme were Miss Muriel Lester, the | “Jane Addams of England.” and Dr. Albert W. Beaven, president of the Colgate-Rochester Divinity School, Rochester, N. Y. : Many other session speakers, addressing professional and lay groups and clergymen also stressed the need for a réturn to Christian prin-

Mankind Needs Discipline

Addressing a district meeting in the Tabernacle Presbyterian Church, Miss Lester said in part: “Human beings seem to be so constructed that if they throw over the] imperatives of religion, they beceme subject to the imperatives of a dictator. Mankind, evidently, needs some kind of disciplining. If he will not take it voluntarily from God, it is thrust on him by the state or

“The idea of God formed the common basis of European life for centuries. Its statesmen and rulers were far from saints, but at least accepted the Christian idea. The ordinary people found that to give up one’s own desires when they clashed with God's was a very stiff bit of discipline, but that when they managed: to achieve it, joy and strength came to them, good citizenship developed, and a sense of responsibility. “But for the last two or three generations, man’s chief reverence has been paid:to what is called education. This has emphasized the acquisition of knowledge apart from action; criticism apart from creativity; analysis of philosophies apart from possessing and being possessed by. something basic and lasting and true.

Lose Touch With Reality

“Over-specialization has encouraged men to know more and more about less and less; to live in a compartmentalized world which enables the cleverest people to remain completely naive in large areas of their lives; to be easy prey to propaganda. Litfle by little man has begun to lose touch with reality. He came to believe he knew better than God. Life seemed to have no meaning. He knew nothing bigger or better than himself. Degeneration set in.” “We have all.contributed to the present agony of the world by our personal slackness, our sins, our callousness. When we gave up worship, meditation, prayer, we destroyed the basis of democracy and

lourselves paved the way for Nazi-{}

ism.” Dr. Beaven said jn part: “America is suffering from indifference to basic religious culture. If there is no God and everyone is a law unto himself, then each one tends to think as he pleases and to grade for himself. If there is no God, then Hitler is a smart person, truth means nothing, force is everything.” “He Made Us All”

“But if there is a God, then He made us all, we have a basic reason for treating each other like members of the same family, and a society where individuals are bound together by faith in a common God has some chance of developing loyalty and unity, and a moral code for all and actions looking toward a common purpose. “But, the fact is, our homes are almost devoid of religious training, people are careless about securing religious training for their children; half of the oncoming generation are getting no religious training at all. “A nation’s religions is not its only sources of inner defense, but it can and it should be one of the greatest sources.”

SCION DENIES HE IS NAZI ADMIRER

SANTA BARBARA, Cal, Nov. 13 (U. P.)~—Adolph B. Spreckels, scion of a weaithy sugar family, scught today to have stricken from his estranged fourth wife's divorce com-

plaint charges that he was a Nazi sympathizer. Mrs. Spreckels, the former Baroness Emily Hall Von Romberg, filed suit last Sept. 6, accusing her husband of admiring Nazi Germany, associating with Nazi-employed persons and insisting upon her entertaining them. She also charged that he once had beat her so severely she had to have medical attention.
