CURBS IMPOSED ON LIQUOR SIGNS

Muminated Advertising of Particular Brands Is Prohibited.

There will be no more illuminated signs advertising any brand of alcoholic beverages either inside or - outside a tavern. This was the most important of a number of rules pertaining to liquor advertising put into effect

yesterday by the Alcoholic Beverages Commission. Commission members explained that the illuminated sign rule would sprohibit tavern proprietors from usadvertising signs only for lighting purposes, as many are reportedly doing, with the result that the taverns are dimly lit. All such signs must be removed by Feb. 15.

Requested by Industry

The regulations, which covers all type of advertising, were put into effect at the request of the liquor industry itself, the commission explained Tavern proprietors may display non-illuminated beer or whiskey signs if they get the written per‘mission of the A. B, C. ¢ No such sign shall be approved, "the Commission specified, if it tends to promote gambling; if it contains salacious, obscene, suggestive, objectionable words or illustrations; if it carries illustrations of minors and children; if it carries illustrations of Santa Claus; and if it is so elaborate as to indicate a subsidy, and if it refers directly or indirectly to alcoholic content—“strength, potency, kick, punch, wallop, ete.”

Covers Calendars

These specifications pertain also to calendars, athletic schedules, etc. which liquor dealers may give out.

Kincaid Nemed

Succeeds Brown as G. 0. P. Member of County Liquor Control Board.

The Marion County Council has appointed George E. Kincaid, a member of the Council for several years, as Republican member of the County Liquor Control Board. He will succeed H. Dale Brown, who has resigned from the Liquor Board, effective Dec. 31. Mr. Brown was appointed to the board by the Council last April upon the recommendation of County G. O. P. Chairman James L. Bradford. He said he will return to private business.

Opposed Last May

Mr. Kincaid was a candidate for the Liquor Board post when the board was organized last May 1 under the new 1941 Stout Liquor Law which provided for a fourmember, bi-partisan group. However, his appointment at that time was opposed by G. O. P. lead-

not be displayed upon tavern windows, the Commission ruled, and the only illuminated outside sign a tavern proprietor can use is one stating that, for example, “beer, wine and whiskey,” is sold inside. The sign cannot include any brand name. Other rules put into effect by the Commission are: No signs advertising alcoholic beverages can be maintained within 200 feet of a tavern. The contents “of such signs is subject to Commission approval and the signs cannot contain disparaging remarks about other products.

No Signs Near Church

No liquor signs can be placed within 200 feet of a church or school. All signs now that close must be removed within one year. No wholesaler or permit holder ghall advertise in programs, year“books, handbills or throw-aways of any kind whatsoever. (This will affect particularly programs for sports events.) No liquor dealer shall pay for a liguor ad in a menu. If the restaurant owner wants to advertise in the menu that he serves a certain brand of liquor, that is his privilege.

Embezzlement of

$13,000 Charged

WABASH, Ind, Dec. 18 (U.P). —Wilbur Ramey, 32, who State Police charge with borrowing “from Peter to pay Paul,” today faced charges of embezzling between $13000 and $14000 from Wabash County farmers and businessmen. Authorities said Rapsey offered to take people into his tire financing business. They said he would borrow large sums of money from his “partners” by promising 25 per cent interest. Part of the borrowed money he used to repay money previously borrowed. He had paid back some $14,000, police said, but still owed nearly as much. The complaint against Ramey, was filed by Dwayne Garrison, North Manchester stock buyer, who said he lost $2590. State Police said there probably were a dozen other victims.

REFUSE TO DRAFT PLANS FOR ANNEX

The Marion County Council today turned down a request for a $10,000 appropriation to pay for drafting

PARENTS RESCUE CHILDREN IN FIRE

It was almost 4 a. m. today when Mr. and Mrs. Needham Hurst were awakened by the smell of smoke in their two-story home on 80th St, near Road 431. Mr. Hurst, realizing the house was afire, grabbed part of his clothing and ran downstairs to investigate. Mrs. Hurst called the Fire Department. Then she hurried into another room where her two sons, Nedham Jr.,, 8, and William, 3, were asleep. Mrs. Hurst bundled the children and started to go downstairs, But choking, blinding smoke drove them back from the stairway. “I could hardly breathe,” she said. She finally made her way to a rear window, and calling to her husband, she and the children made their way out the window onto a small porch. Mr. Hurst then obtained a ladder and the family was brought to safety. The fire started in the living room and burned furniture. Mrs. Hurst said the damage would be “at least $1000.”

LIEUT. FORD AND WIFE ARE SAFE

Relatives Here Receive Two Letters From Couple in Attacked Area. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Ford, 3951

Broadway, have received two letters

from their son and daughter-in-law, Lieut. and Mrs . J. W. Ford at Hickam Field, Hawaii, written since the war broke out. Mrs. Ford disclosed that all women and children had been sent to Honolulu. “Everyone is working and keeping their chins up, and despite the surprise attack, the entire personnel of the field behaved wonderfully,” Mrs. Ford said. Lieut. Ford is a member of an Army Air Corps bombing squadron. He is a graduate of Shortridge High School and Butler University. His wife is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Stidham, 502 E. Maple Rd. She and her parents formerly lived in Missouri but she graduated from Butler. The Fords have been in Hawaii for the last year and Lieut. Ford graduated from Air Corps three years ag: = 2

Await Word From Him

Relatives here have received no word from Harry Lynn Malson, storekeeper aboard the U. S. S. Arigona which was sunk in Pearl Harbor Dec. T. Mr. Malson is 23 and the son of Mr. and Mrs. George A. Bridges, 424 N. Randolph St. He has been in the Navy for the last six years. His enlistment was up on Sept. 17 and he was planning to come home for a visit before re-enlisting. He was retained, however, by the Navy. He was graduated from School 14 and attended Tech High School for three years before enlisting. His wife, whom he married last January, lives in Seattle. Four sisters and a brother live here.

Stationed in Hawaii

Leroy Lafond, son of Mrs. Ruth Lafond, Mars Hill, is stationed at

apolis for 30 years, is manager of Schofield Barracks, Hawaii. He is

a member of the motorcycle corps. No word has been received by his mother since the outbreak of the war. = ” ”

Safe on Sacramento

“All safe, notify everyone.” So read the brief cablegram from one of the 150 Indianapolis men aboard the U. S. S. Sacramento now in service with the Pacific Fleet. The message was sent from Honolulu by Robert Crouch, storekeeper aboard the cruiser, to his mother, Mrs. Lucille Crouch, 20341 N. Harding St. It was the first word which anyone here had received irom the men since hostilities began. The ship is {manned largely by Indianapolis men who first sailed it from the Great Lakes to the East Coast where it was fitted for sea duty and then sailed to the Pacific.

of the first signs that it would revive soon came from Ralph Gates, the Republican State chairman, who outlined his party's program under the new conditions. He announced a policy of loyalty to the Administration in its war efforts, all energy to building defense and no criticism of the war effort. He also sounded the G. O. P. keynote for next year’s Congressional campaign when he said that all non-essen-tial spending must end and the pest way to insure that is the election ot Republican Congress-

men. ® = =

Too Early to Predict

THIS UNDOUBTEDLY will be one of the chief issues pressed by the G. O. P. next November. It's too early and the world is turning over too rapidly to prognosticate on whether this issue will overcome the ardent pre-war isolationism of the Republican Congressmen. If it doesn’t, you can’t help but feel a little sorrow for the two or three who toyed around with the idea of voting their feelings Hwa of politics but waited too ong. And events have knocked the props from under those who honestly professed that in voting against the Administration's program they were not opposing the specific measures but were voting on a long range view of keeping us out of war. Time only can tell the public's judgment of their moves.

What of the State?

THAT TAKES CARE of the Congressional picture, but what of the State? Practically all of the offices except Governor, Lieutenant Governor and some judges will be on the ballot next year. Most of these offices now are held by Republicans. These elected G. O. P. officials, for the most part, privately expressed the pre-war opinion that the Hoosier Republican organization should follow the leadership

of Wendell Willkie—go along on

Indiana Politics. By Vern Boxell

ONE OF INDIANA'S first casualties of the Japanese invasion is making slow, but steady recovery and within the next month will be up and around

again. It's politics, of course, and although it won't be the same again for the duration, it will be very much in the picture for several months ta come. For a week after Pearl Harbor, there was complete silence on the Hoosier political front. No one wanted to talk about politics. One

the all-out defense program but battle all-out against the New Deal domestic policies. They held their fire in public, however, for obvious reasons. Some spoke in executive G. O. P. sessions, but only one—Lieutenant Governor Charles Dawson—gave on-the-record hint of his feelings. From now on, these officials have agreed that they will not enter into political discussion of the war. They stayed out of it before the war because they were State, not national, officials, They have all the more reason (besides personal convictions) to keep guiet

now. 8 0

Economy Likely Issue

UNDOUBTEDLY THE STATE issue, too, will be economy. So far most of the G. O. P. officers can point to some pretty good savings in the conduct of their offices this year. But they will need more fuel than that, so from now on they will watch every move of the Democrats closely. To date they have found few weak spots in the Democratic administration under Governor Schricker. And the way he has been going, they'll find few even with a campaign mic x The Democrats undoubtedly will attack on the record of the 1941 G. O. P.-controlled Legislature. Its major accomplishment already has been thrown out by the Supreme Court (the decentralization law) and three other new laws are under fire on constitue tionality grounds. The Democrats are not likely to forget the bombardment which some Republicans made on the State Defense program. These four important bills were held up until the last minute when wiser G. O. P. heads finally prevailed in getting them through. It would have been a sorry plight for the G. O. P. otherwise. As for the local issues—there are plenty. And in this division will be found the heaviest firing. You don’t need a war to get the local boys heated up at campaign time. And the war won't quiet them, either.
