Ezra Pound (above), expatriate, pro-Fascist, American-born poet, is reported to have broadcast speeches over the Rome radio praising U, 8S. isolationism and blasting American aid to Britain. The bearded poet, now 55, has not been in America except for brief visits, since he was 22.
RELIEF SETUP CHANGE URGED
Bill Would Give Trustees Right to Certify Persons Needing Aid.
A proposal to make the township trustees the certifying agents for all Federal work programs was presented to the House today by the
Walter Hayes, trustee of the largest township in the State. The bill, introduced by Rep. Charles Bond (R. Ft. Wayne), also would require all able-bodied persons to work for their relief.
Certification of persons for work on Federal projects has been in the hands of the Governor's Commission on Unemployment Relief, but this agency is scheduled to be abolished by the Republican majority.
Fear U. S. Disapproval
The G. O. P. plan is to place the certification in the hands of the State Welfare Department. Some officials have criticized this proposal on the grounds that the Welfare Department could not handle the task adequately and that the Federal Government would not approve of the transfer. Asked if the Federal Government would approve of the trustees’ handling the certification, Mr. Hayes, who is trustee of Wayne Township, Allen County, said that if the Federal Government did not approve, “they could take their business some place else.” The bill also would permit the trustees to act as an employment service for all persons on relief and could place unemployed charges in private industry or in any governmental agency where an opening existed. Provides for Clerks
If the relief client refused to work, the trustee would be empowered to provide for his dependents and then charge the husband with child or wife neglect as the case might be, according to the bill. ’ All additional clerical help needed by the added duties of the trustees would be provided from relief rolls.
CITY SEWER REPAIR PROGRAM STARTED
The city’s $1,000,000 sewer repair program got under way today. Assistant City Engineer Val B. McLeay announced that plans for the reconstruction of the East Washington . St. drainage relief sewer from Davidson to Noble Sts. have been completed and approved by the WPA, which is providing Federal funds, The work on the Washington St. sewer will begin as soon as labor is available, Mr. McLeay said. First unit of the project, the largest underground repair undertaken by the city in 20 years, the Washington St. drain reconstruction will cost $54,444, Mr. McLeay estimated. WPA labor will be used and the city will provide management from its own engineering department.

INSILINE
A former assistant WPA ‘supervisor told a Federal Court jury today that he proceeded with Ritter Ave. and Minnesota St. projects on oral orders of Carl Kortepeter, his immediate boss at the time. He was Bernard Benchart, a Government witness in the trial of Mr. Kortepeter, Arthur E. Eickhoff, real estate man, and Charles E. Jefferson, former Marion County Flood oCntrol Board member, charged with having fraudulently promoted the projects. Mr. Benchart also testified that he reecived easemenst for the work from Mr. Eickhoff, and that he once discussed with Mr. Jeffereson a proposal to build a lake in the Silver Hills real estate developments, owned by the Eichhoff Realty Co.
Surveyor on Stand
The WPA surveyor who staked out the two roads was called to the stand yesterday afternoon- by B. Howard Caughran, U. S. district attorney. The witness, William A. Martin, Baltimore, Md., and former WPA superintendent of engineering in Marion County, testified that he had staked out the two projects on orders from the Marion County WPA office. He said that the job, with the assistance of six men, took about a month. He described the land as pasture and timberland,
WPA Workers Appear
Testimony of Raymond Fisher, WPA supervisor who worked in Mr, Kortepeter’s « fice, said he had been told to send crews of men to the Silver Hills area to construct the roads. More than a dozen WPA men who worked on the projects and who have taken the stand have testified that they received their salaries in the mail from the WPA and on U, S. Treasury checks. This is part of the Government's attempt to prove that the men were paid by the WPA to work on public projects. The Government contends the road projects were not for the public good.
BARGAIN PRICES FOR LIQUOR CRITICIZED
Bargain prices set by liquor dealers lead to intemperant drinking, the Indiana Association of Police Chiefs declared yesterday in a statement urging fair trade provisions in the Indiana Liquor Control Act. The statement was issued by Ed Hobbs, Peru police chief and association president, who said that bargain prices influenced consumers to “lay in a large supply” and drink more in a shorter time. “Elimination of ‘bargain prices’ on package liquor would greatly aid temperance by removing the temptation to the purchaser to buy and consume more than he should,” the statement said. “Physical enforcement of the law will meet the problems only part way. To really meet most of the ills we must strike at the causes which
stimulate unfair practices—price
wars and intemperance.”
