Civil defense is getting set for any emergency. It is the most important thing today on the home | front of this country.”

Heavy-set, sandy-haired, Dr. Sparks praised the Indiana civil defense organization and particularly the work of Maj. Gen. Robert H.

as it is here now, he said. When war came, reservists who had not been called for military service were required to serve the civil defense organization. The first task in the French organization, he said, was the setting up of first-aid stations. Then the population of Paris and other cities were instructed to go to specified places during an air raid instead of remaining in their own homes.

Cellars in Neighborhoods

“We wanted them where we could |

find them and dig them out when bombs fell,” he said. “There were cellars in each neighborhood designated as areas where people were to congregate during a raid. “These were gas-proofed. Anyone who wasn’t in one of these cellars was instructed to go to the second or third stories of the nearest building to escape gas. We expected gas attacks. “We distributed gas masks. Every citizen had one. They had powder to neutralize the effects of mustard gas. They were told home-made ways of protecting themselves against gas—such as dipping the curtains in a bicarbonate of soda solution. “Everybody knew how to combat incendiary bombs and every building had its bucket of sand. We weren't so terribly concerned about a little light seeping through in the blackouts.

You Can Smoke

“It's silly to say you can’t smoke a cigaret on the street in an air raid. If you're on the street, you can bet no aviator overhead can see a cigaret. We found the best color for blacking out windows was not black, but a dark, purplish blue.

“DRAFT ir GALL FATHERS LAST

Hershey Believes They Will |}

Be Passed Until Army Totals 7 Million.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 (U. P). —Fathers probably will not be drafted for military service until the Army has 7,000,000 or 8,000,000 men, Brig. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, Selective Service Director, told the Conference of U. S. Mayors yesterday. Mr. Hershey said the United States probably was not capable of pro-

ducing more than 10,000,000 men fit for military service. To do that, he

said, “obviously we're going to have

to reduce many of our physical re-|

quirements.” He did not refer specially to married men without children, but the policy in those cases has been to decide them in favor of deferment where the wives do not support themselves.

Students Cannot Wait

Students, even though they might graduate in one year or less, will

not be deferred more than 60 days | hereafter, provided they meet other requirements for service, Mr. Her-

oo 1shy Sait: “The college man owes not what the average man owes but a little more,” he said. “I do not believe we can justify deferring a student for no other reason than that it interferes with his plan of life.” Many states probably will begin registering the estimated 10,000,000

unregistered men between the ages “Too many people have the idea

of 20 and 44. inclusive, for military service a day or two before the of-

{ficially proclaimed day of Feb. 16, (Selective Service authorities said today.

Some to Sign Feb. 16

Some will be registered Saturday, Feb. 14, and others on the day following to avoid, wherever possible, interruption of work and to facilitate the work of the 6400 local registration boards. Men registered previously will not be required to register again. Men between 45 and 64 will be registered later.

‘No Word Received

By Col. Hitchcock

Lieut. Col. Robinscn Hitchcock, state draft head, said today that he had received no instructions from Washington concerning possible early registration. “But I presume we will have the authority to register them before Feb. 16 in places that seems advisable,” he said. “If we do receive permission for early registration, we will confer with local draft boards before announcing any schedule.”

NORTHWOOD CHURGH BOARD NAMES HEAD

I. C. Spencer, 5116 College Ave, was elected chairman of the Official Board of the Northwood Christian Church at a meeting of the Board at the church last night. Frank Crowder was named vice chairman; Ralph Snyder, treasurer; E. W. Navlor, financial secreretary; M. B. Rains, church clerk, and Wallace O. Lee, Omer Farthing and Carl H. Becker, members of the Board of Trustees. Reports were received by the Board from church cfficials and committee heads and several resolutions were adopted. Plans were discussed for an addition to the church to care for the growing Sunday School enroliment and an invitation was extended to the membership of the University Park Christian Church for a joint meeting with the Northwood Christian Church members to be held in the near future. Life elders of the Northwood Church are W. R. Todd, Dr. George Wood, K. V. Ammerman, C. H. Becker and Carmen Thomas.

AWARDED BONDS FOR ADDING CUSTOMERS

Prizes totaling neariy $500 in defense bonds and stamps have been awarded to milk route salesmen of Capitol Dairies for gaining new customers, Arthur P. Holt, manager, presented first prize to Clyde Barmore, one of the company’s 28 route salesmen. Six of the eleven winners were given bonds and five received stamps.

Indiana Politics

For many months now, any list of probable Secretary of State candidates on the Democratic ticket has included the name of Henry Murray of Bedford right near the top. But it appears that he may not be a candidate after all, because of a little clause in the State Constitution.

Mr. Murray, Board, resigned

that post. His term as mayor, however, will not end until Jan. 1, 1943. That's where the legal tangle comes in.

The Constitution says that no become a candidate for another office the term of which begins before the judicial term ends. The Secretary of State's term begins Dec. 1. This apparently would rule Mr. Murray out of the Secretary race, because as Mayor of Bedford, Mr. Murray also was City Judge, a judicial office. There has been no official ruling on Mr. Murray's status, however, and there are some who say that his resignation from the mayoral spot clears the way for him to make the race. But most attorneys agree that the wording of the law leaves no loopholes and that since he was elected for a term ending 12 months hence, he can not be a candidate in next November's election. 2 2

Rated as Natural

The Tax Board chief is rated one of the best natural politicians in the Democratic Party. He's also ranked as an able administrator—any time Governor Schricker starts lauding the work of his appointees he invariably mentions the Tax Board early. He's popular with party leaders

committee headed by Rep.

all over the state, and quite a few will tell you he would have | been the Secretary of State nominee two years ago if he hadn't been Bedford's mayor at the time. As it happened, the choice went to a fellow-towns-man, Clarence J. Donovan, who became Bedford's mayor when Mr. Murray resigned. Right now, the most talked-of Secretary of State candidate is State Rep. Winfield K. Denton of Evansville. He did a good job as minority leader in the House last year. He comes from a Southern industrial and Democratic stronghold that is deserving of high recgnition on the ticket, and would also balance off against Attorney General George Beamer, who hails from the other

| end of the state, South Bend, and

undoubtedly will be a candiate to

| succeed himself.

Mr. Denton, an attorney, apparently no longer is interested in the Righth District Congressional race, where Democratic Rep. John Boehne is the incumbent.

New Skip-Law Angle

There's a new wrinkle coming up in the skip-election battle, according to reports from the north. And it's based on the assumption that the Indiana Supreme Court will rule the G. O. P. law invalid which postpones all mayoral elections except Indianapolis’ until 1943. We hear that Frank W. Smith, Elkhart County Republican chairman, intends to file a suit to have the terms of all Mayors elected this year reduced to three years, returning municipal elections to the same odd-numbered years in which they were held prior to the passage of the 1933 McNutt skipelection law. Incidentally, the Supreme Court has set oral arguments on the present skip-election battle for Jan. 20. It has two appeals before it—Judge Earl Cox’s ruling that all elections must be held this year, and another that all cities, including Indianapolis, must elect Mayors in 1943. Just what the Court wiil do

| Santo Pietro,

about this, of course, still is known only by the judges, but it's possible that attorneys in the second suit who insist that all municipal elections be held in '43 may be asked to participate in the oral arguments on the Judge Cox de cision. It's not likely that tHe Court will wait for the filling of briefs in the second case. The time is getting short. It will be February before a decision is handed down —and the primary election comes early in May. Most of the wise gentlemen will tell you that if you're a candidate for Mayor, you'd better start running very soon.

The Mexican members are Brig. Gen. Tomas Sanchez Hernandez and Brig. Gen. Miguel S. Gonzales Cadena of the Mexican general staff. American appointees are Vice Admiral Alfred Wilkinson Johnson and Lieut. Gen. Stanley Dunbar Embick.

HOOVER SUGGESTED

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 (U. P)). —Former President Herbert Hoover today was being mentioned by Republican Congressmen for the job as price administrator. House Republican Leader Joseph W. Martin Jr. of Massachusetts said in a radio address last night that Mr. Hoover, as price control chief, “would give the nation greater confidence than those who now exercise that control ”

BERKELEY, Cal, Jan. 13 (U. P.)—~Donald Dobbie, the dieting patriot, weighs in again today. If he hits 190 pounds, the U. S. Army Air Corps gets him.

Dobbie, a 25-year-old accountant, has pared his weight from 216 pounds through diet and by running up and down the street in the dead of night, burdened with three overcoats.

DELAY HAT SENTENCES

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 13 (U.P.). —Sentencing of 44 hat manufacturing firms, labor unions and their officials was postponed today for at least two weeks pending a Federal court ruling on their pleas to quash a conspiracy indictment. They were indicted Nov. 28 on charges of conspiracy to fix prices for the manufacture of 2,000,000 Army field caps in violation of antitrust laws.

that more than half of the $9,000,« 000,000 in new taxes to be raised probably would come from individ ual and corporation income levies. Higher income taxes are expected to bring in $5,500,000,000, accord« ing to these sources. Excises on se= lected commodities would yield $1,« 500,000,000 and the remaining $2,« 000,000,000 would come from ine creased social security taxes.

a Steep Rates Proposed

The Treasury program for excise taxation would call for steep rates, perhaps 35 per cent, on luxury commodities and commodities which compete with armaments for raw materials and production capacity. Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr. told Congressional tax committee chairmen last week that he was not ready to go to general sales taxation which is more popular in Congress than income withholding taxes.

Debate Several Types

One member of Congress who helped defeat a sales tax during the Hoover Administration said Presi dent Roosevelt had told him prior to American entrance into the war that he believed low income groups might prefer to pay sales taxes to steep income taxes. Informed Congressional sources said the Treasury was considering several types of income withholding taxes to raise between $3,000,000,000 and. $4,000,000,000. One would be a high rate, 15 per cent on net income -——income after personal exemptions, now $1500 for married couples and $750 for single persons, are deducted. Another would be a lower rate—maybe 5 per cent—on gross income.
