PLANNING BOARD

SEEKING FUNDS

Irvington Zoning Plea Will Be First Issue Taken Up ‘By County Unit.

The County Council will be asked Monday to appropriate money for a reorganized Gounty Planning Board. How much will be asked is not known, but it is expected to be sufficient to operate a full-time planning board with surveys, maps and investigators. The need for such, a planning board has been cited with the influx of new business and industries in the county because of the national defense program,

Irvington Seeks Rule

The question came to a head Monday when Irvington residents petitioned the County Commissiolers for a temporary zoning rule for the area surrounding the

naval ordnance plant site between 16th and, 21st Sts. east of Arlington Ave, : The group originally sought out the Indianapolis City Plan Commission, but were sent to the commissioners because the City Plan Commission fhought it did not have jurisdiction. Harry Hohlf, commissioners’ president, said it was hoped to have the county planning board functioning soon enough so that a temporary set of restrictions would not be necessary. If the board is given funds immediately, it will tackle the problem of zoning the Irvington area first, it is expected.

Board Is Named

The board was ‘named Monday by the commissioners. It includes Mr. Hohlt as commissioners’ president; Otto Worley and Henry R. Taylor, Irvington residents; Paul H. Brown, county surveyor; Horace Abbott, county agricultural agent, and George T. O'Conner of the City Plan Commission. Two more members will be named soon to conform to statutory regulations.

WESTERVILLE, O, Jan, 17 (U. P.).~The village fathers in this cradle of prohibition blushed in embarrassment today upon discovery that high-powered beer could be sold legally in their municipality.

Now some smart lawyer has figured it out that the State Liquor Control Board could issue, if it wished, a permit for the sale of light wines and highpowered beer in Westerville. No big’ rush of license applicants was expected, however, be-~ cause any establishment holding such a permit would be certain to be voted out of business just as soon as the Westerville citizens could hold another referendum— this time on all beer and wines.

SEEK CASH FOR INNOGENT MAN

Legislators Ask $12,000 for Ex-Prisoner Believed Living in State.

Representatives today contemplated introduction of a ‘bill asking $12,000 compensation for Alexander Ripan, who served 13 years in a Michigan State penitentiary for a murder he did not commit. The representatives, William G. Buckley and Edward J. Walsh, Detroit, said they did nat know where Ripan was now, but believed he was living at East Chicago; Ind. Ripan was sentenced. to life imprisonment March 25, 1920, for the murder of C. A, Tirpula, Saginaw County farmer, Ripan, after serving in the Jackson prison from 1920 to 1929, escaped and began life anew at Indiana Harbor, Ind., where he opened a shoe store. He was discovered in 1935 and returned to prison, but won his freedom when the conviction was holle prossed Jan, 3, 1939. Ripan filed a suit in the Michigan Court of Claims and asked $10,000. . Judge Leland W. Carr threw the case out of court, holding that the State was not responsible for “errors’of the court.” The decision ended Ripan’s legal rights to compensation, but the Legislature still has the power to grant an appropriation for that purpose,
