After hearing Maj. Gen. James G. Harbord, top-flight military leader of the First World War and top-flight industrialist of the present conflict, call for “a mounting tide of civilian support” behind fighting men who “inscribe their names in history,” the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce today rallied around its “war president.”

specialists today advised against an operation for the 14-year-old Indianapolis boy whose mysterious Dr. Jekyll-Mr. Hyde conduct has baffled Juvenile Court authorities for more than a year. Brain surgeons were called into the case recently by Judge Wilfred Bradshaw, of Juvenile Court, after an investigation revealed he had received a head injury in a traffic accident two years ago.

He started stealing automobiles and the usual probation methods were employed, but two months later he went on another carstealing away and these kept recurring about every 60 to 70 days, Juvenile Court workers said. Psychiatrists established that the boy was suffering a cycle of emotional disturbances and that these were occurring every 60 to 70 days.

After several examinations, the surgeons said that the chance of a cure through surgery was so small that they advised against it. Judge Bradshaw said he will call in more psychiatrists for further treatment before giving up the case and sending him to a reform school. The lad is now in a hospital recovering from a bullet wound he

HINTS AT NAVY BLOWS

PEARL HARBOR, Jan. 30 (U. P.). —Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, Su-

preme Commander of Hawaii, said today that United States warships are “swinging” at the enemy and that so far Japanese victories have been costly ones.

cidental death wiped out two full divisions of potential fighting men in the nation last year, the Nae tional Safety Council said today. A year-end appraisal of accidental violence during 1941 told this grim story: Killed, 101,500; injured, 9, 300,000; cost, $3,750,000,000. The toll among men in the selec tive service age bracket (20 to 45) numbered 26,000—the manpower of two divisions in the United States Army.

W. I. Longsworth, retiring president, installed the officers who will serve during 1942-43. A new custom was inaugurated by the Chamber when it presented Mr. Longsworth with “The Gold Medal of Indianapolis.” The medal. showing a sunburst superimposed by a wheel symbolizing both commerce and progress, will be given to every president as he leaves office in the coming years. C. D. Alexander, former president, presented the medal to Mr.

“We are going to have to obtain more and more of our wool, hides, magnesium, copper, tungsten, manganese and other metal ores from Latin America,” he said. “We need tin, manila hemp, copra, palm oil, graphite and chromite, and many of these products, or suitable substitutes, will have to be drawn in ever increasing quantities from i Pan-American sources. “The course of the war since |Dec.
