Husband Critical. (Continued From Page One)

arated two weeks ago, following a series of domestic quarrels, Accompanied by a friend, Mrs. Thomas took a street car to 22d st. and College ave. Her estranged husband and daughter were staying at 900 E, 22d st, only two blocks away. From a drug store at 22d st. and College ave, Mrs. Thomas telephoned her husband, His sister, Mrs. Ruth Popplewell, answered the phone, Mrs. Thomas told Mrs, Popplewell that she had come to the neighborhood to “see Ruthie, but not if my husband is there.” Mrs. Popplewell informed her that her husband was at home,

“What's She Want?”

Odie Thomas heard the conver sation. Told it was his wife, “he shouted, “What's she want?” Ace cording to -his sister, he then “rushed out the-the door in a great hurry.” Thomas covered the two squares {from his home to the 22d st. and College ave. intersection in a mat= ter of seconds. From statements, pieced together by police, this is what happened: The husband sighted his wife standing on the corner near a Gulf filling station, “You're going down to the house ‘with me,” he said.

Started Shooting

She declined.” At this, he drew a .22 revolver and started firing. Mrs, Thomas, shouting “Don’t let him shoot me,” leaped behind a truck parked in the filling station, then dodged between automobiles in an effort to flee her husband's bullets. With the gun still pointed at her, she dashed across College ave. Two bullets creased her dress. Another had gone wild and ripped into an automobile, On the opposite side of the street, Mrs. Thomas sought refuge behind a passerby, Alton C. Smith, 40, of

Dazed and wild-eyed, Thomas half ran, half stumbled into the middle of College ave. where he placed a bullet below his own heart. He's in a critical confition at City hospital.

field is lower. This is one of which, industrial authorities say, will have to be “adjusted.” They think reduced living costs will ultimately convince displaced war workers that they can subsist on curtailed pay checks. Nevertheless, Mr. Ruthenburg, who also is president of Servel; Inc, in Evansville, predicts that the. post-war wage level will be “considerably higher” than prewar salary scales. Industrial spokesmen also antic~ ipate a gradual flow of war workers into the service trades, now decimated with vacancies. At ‘least & third of the women workers, they say, will want to return to their homes and kitchens. In the event of an emergency, both Indianapolis and Marion county are prepared to laungh public improvement projects to tighten any employment slack. The Indianapolis post-war planning committee has nearly completed its work.

No sharp changes in spending are expected immediately after the Japanese war, however. It may take six months before appreciable cuts are evident, due to the high cost of demobilization and the payment of bills for war materials already made. Regardless of tax cuts and spending trends, the tax structure is due for a complete overhaul and modernization - if Vinson's. post-war plans are carried out by congress. In his recent report as war mobilizer, Vinson said taxes should be levied in such a way that they will have the %least harmful effect on the ‘expansion of business investment and the creation of jobs, And they also should be planned to have | the least harmful effects on mass | markets and purchasing power, he said. “Acceptance of these “principles

Shortly after 10 p. m. Charles G. | Ross, White House secretary, issued this statement: “President Truman went to bed about an hour ago. If anything comes in hell be notified. There lis absolutely no word of truth in the report that the President has announced that Japan has accepted the allied surrender terms.” The flash set off celebrations in some places. In Washington a crowd of 7000 in front of the White House sang patriotic songs. In New York whistles blew and motorists sounded their horns. A speech which Prime Minister MacKenzie~ King had prepared for the day of victory over Japan was broadcast by transcription in Canada. Tape Impounded

After it was established that the flash did not originate in the Washington bureau the U. P, in New York sent a message to bureaus ordering the impounding of all teletype tape. It also asked bureaus to investigate and report any evidence they found indicating that someone had cut in on ‘the U. P. circuit with the {purpose of disseminating false in- | formation. It was possible that the {impounded teletype tape would proIvide a clue. The ‘American Telephone and Telegraph Co., from which the U. P. leases its wires, started its own investigation. The southern circuit of the U. P. wires runs from Portland, Me, through Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Washington, Atlanta, Memphis, Nashville, Miami, Fla., and New Orleans. “Sending” Points

There are 12 points along the cireuit which regularly send news. Presumably the flash was fed into the U. P.-circuit from one of those points. However, it would be possible ‘for a person with sufficient | mechanical knowledge to hook an{other teletype onto the U. P. wires |and- send a few words which would \appear to come from a regular “bureau point. Two other United Press newspaper circuits operate out of New | York.
