SATURDAY, oc. 7 1945

‘ Inside Indianapolis

Red-haired, soft-spoken Carl M. Geupel will be

#» one of the leading figures in the tremendous indus-

trial expansion predicted “for Indiana within .the next few years. He is the state's No. 1 industrial builder and his reputation. for well- constructed factories, warehouses, foundries and offices has spread through the Middle West. Never before has business boomed more for Mr. Geupel, Already this year he has politely turned down more ‘opportunities for jobs than he would have taken in any normal year. When it comes to industrial building, he really knows what he’s talking about. He has had his

* own business in the Hume-Mansur building for the

‘

last 18 years and before that he was in the engineer=

ing business with a New York

To name all the buildings that have been constructed by the firm would take hours. But LinkBelt, the Omer J. Williams Candy Co, at 38th st. and Fall Creek, Pittman-Moore, Vonnegut Hardware, the Perfect Circle Co, the Indianapolis Power and Light Co. the gndianapolis Water Co., the National 8ilk Hosiery Mills, Beveridge Paper Co, are among the hundreds of satisfied customers.

Boyhood in Evansville

THERE ARE plenty of reasons for Carl Geupel's

, extremely successful business career.

First of all, he’s sincere in all his relationships, whether they're business or personal. He's a square= shooter and cool, calm and collected at all times. His level head has served him well in his business lite and in civic affairs in the community. In some way or another he always has managed to keep his old interests and friendships alive, They go back to his boyhood days in Evansville, his home town, and to Purdue university, his alma mater, Purdue, in fact, figures in one of his ideas for pulling the building industry out of the critical spot it's in now. The scarcity of material and of skilled labor seem to be the two main factors that are holding construction down to a minimum. But Mr. Geupel at least has a solution for the labor scarcity. He's in favor of the government setting up a vocational school at Purdue to train young men for the building industry. Unless there are more skilled bricklayers, plumbers, steamfitters, carpenters and other laborers, he is sure that the building industry will never absorb the great number of unemployed predicted by the government now. Then he thinks the public works programs should be postponed, until the building boom slows down a little—perhaps for two or three years. But Mr. Geupel isn't entirely business-minded. He's definitely an asset in any gathering where fun is in order. He has one big trouble, however, when he meets fairly-new acquaintances. He never can remember their names and stutters and stammers trying to recall them. He always ends up by asking what the name is again,

Proud of Family

ONE OF the things he’s constantly kidded about is his weakness for lemon meringue pie. But every time he orders the pie he invariably gets his sleeve in the meringue,

Jap ‘Gestapo’ TOKYO, Oct. 27—Ome of the most efficient tools with which the Japanese war machine worked to hold people in line, to punish its enemies and to kindle a national hatred of all foreigners was the KemBo a semi-military organization built along the general lines of our state police systems. The Kempetitai has been ordered abolished by Gen, MacArthur, : These policemen were probably the world’s most brutal, not excluding even the German Gestapo. They were a swaggering, blustering, arrogant lot, who struck terror wherever they appeared. They even bullied the Japanese, who appear to hate the very name Kempeital. These were the men who made most of the arrests of foreigners when orders went out at the outbreak of the war and before, to round up those “dangerous to the welfare of Japan.” From 1938 to August of this year, Japan's foreign population lived in constant fear of a sudden knock at the door in the night and the appearance of three or four of these men, There would follow insolent search and insulting gestures to the women, brutal handcuffings and humiliating beatings.

Question Police Agent THEY WERE also venal, as many of their vietimg, discovered and while bribes would not stop the arrests or the preliminary brutalities, the payment of

Aviat THE return of the experienced, standby pilots to the airlines from military service is a thing of joy for airmen who ride the airlines. Likewise, it is a

thing of comfort for the lay passenger.

Our airline leaders and the leaders of the army and navy air forces must be come plimented for the balanced agreement by which the airline piloting personnel was used alternately in air transport command and the commercial airline operations, Four years of flying military aircraft is bound to affect the thinking and cockpit technique of any airman; irrespective of his previous experience. And I have marveled at the fact that our experienced airline pilots returning to passenger-carrying ships have held tightly to their old standards of flying a ship for the passengers” comfort. The nature of a cargo in any kind of airplane necessarily determines the type of thinking which guides the man at the controls. With a dead-weight cargo, merchandise, munitions, ete., you'll fly an airplane one way. Youll fly as you want to fly, and when you want to make a turn you'll make a turn abruptly or otherwise, When you want to descend you'll descend the way you want to get down,

' Have Different Attitude

but we have

THERE is no more danger in this type of flying than there is in flying for passenger comfort. No matter what maneuvers you do In the air, if performed correctly the danger element is at a minimum.

My Day

NEW YORK, Friday.~I have come back from Washington with a sense of relief that I am not quite so close to the nation’s problems as are the people who live there all of the time, There was a sense of vague disquiet and depression in so many people with whom 1 talked.

Carl M. Geupel , . . the state's No. 1 industrial builder.

He's qujte social-minded, too. He's a director for the Meridian Hills Country club and the Rotary club, a member of the Columbia, Scientech and Woodstock Country clubs and belongs to the Masonic order. He also is a loyal member of Phi Gamma Delta fraternity. At 4:55 p. m. every Tuesday he’s on his way to the Columbia club. There about ‘a dozen old friends of the 4:55 club gather to talk over the latest gossip. A fine family man, Mr. Geupel is real proud of his son, John, a freshman at Yale; his two daughters and his grandson. All along he had planned for John to go to Purdue and take up engineering. But John won a scholarship to Taft school in the East, practically a next-door neighbor to Yale. Right now, however, Mr, Geupel is waiting for the day when his son finishes college and joins him at the Geupel Construction Co, Besides his family, his big brick home in Williams Creek probably is Mr. Geupel's second greatest pride. He built it about seven or eight years ago, using all his know-how as a builder. It not only is beautifully designed but it is constructed of reinforced concrete and steel strong enough to outlast the Circle monument, Mr. Geupel is & week-end golfer, likes to play bridge and follows football and basketball games like a professional. All week he has been literally “kicking himself around the block” for not seeing Purdue whip Ohio State last Saturday. But there's one thing that he already has resolved. He's not going to miss that PurdueNorthwestern game today.

perhaps 300 yen might prevent the looting of property. T Before they were disbanded, one of these gentry strolled through the hotel and right into the vision of Marta Harnischmacher, a German girl who was imprisoned in Tokyo for anti-Naziism after the German collapse. Yes, he remembered arresting the German..girl Oh, but he treated her honorably. No, he did not search her, Only took a few things out of her pocketbook. He was very gentle, he rermembered. And then, quite suddenly, he remembered something else. He happened to have in his pocket, even then, 300 yen that Dr. Hans Tiedemann, whom he also arrested, had given him at the time of his imprisonment, He could not imagine why the doctor had given him the money, and he had been looking for him eyer since to give it back,

Hurries to Return Bribe WHEN IT was suggested that the 300 yen might have been given to him to obtain a little gentler treatment for the Tiedemanns’ small son, Peter, he did not think that could have been possible because he loved little children, He had come to the hotel, he sald, to see some Germans about heating arrangements for the hotel in Karuizawa shat has been taken over by the German community, Oh, yes, he was still working for the police- When we dismissed him he bowed and hissed politely. Eifteen minutes later he was at Dr, Tiedemann’s door, begging to return the 300 yen that had been given him “for no reason at all.”

But when that cargo back there is composed of other human beings, the responsible pilot assumes an entirely different attitude. Recognition of this difference seldom is made openly by any pilot. His explanation is the routine observation, “Airline piloting is piloting for passenget’ comfort.” Along with lending their experienced pilots to the army and navy air transport commands, the airlines have been carrying on an extensive educational program in qualifying co-pilots to become master pilots of planes used in peacetime operations. This has necessitated hiring pilots who had been trained purely on a military basis and educating them to the standard of peacetime airlines. “Breaking-in" Training THE STORIES veteran pilots tell of the means by which they accomplished their educational purposes are often amusing. With the new co-pilot having demonstrated his ability on a technical basis, he is assigned by the airline captain the Job of running a schedule under supervision. The time for serving meals usually is of little concern to him. Rough air—well, he is accustomed to that. So, he maintains his cruising speed. But In the cabin aft, all is not well. Coffee, soup, fruit juice are dancing in the cups. This one little instance where “flying for the passenger” means a change in technique, The captain reduces the throttle, slows down, and smoothes out’ the bumps for the increased comfort of the passengers, The airlines long since have learned that they must slow down in rough air or lose their passengers,

Keep A-Bomb Secret, Says Prof. Einstein

BOSTON, Oct. 27 (U. P.).—Asserting that two-thirds of the earth's inhabitants might die in an atomic war, Prof. Albert Einstein strongly urged today that the bomb’s secret be withheld from the United Nations organization—and especially from Russia. Control of atomic energy should be a closely-guarded United States secret until such time as it can be entrusted to a world government, Einstein said in an article appearing in November's Atlantic Monthly magazine, Even though 1,400,000,000 persons might be destroyed, Prof. Einstein sald, civilization probably would not entirely vanish, Not Father of Atom Age “Perhaps two-thirds of the people of the earth might be killed but enough men capable of thinking and enough books would: be left to start again, and civilization could be restored,” he wrote. The famed psysicist and Nobel prize winner, whose formula led to the utilization of atomic energy, said he did not consider himself father of the atomic age. “My part in it was quite indirect.” he sald. “I did not, in fact, foresee that atomic energy would be released in my time. I believed only that release was theoretically possible. It became practical through the accidental discovery of chain reactions, and this was not something I could have predicted.” Sees It as Menace Describing atomic energy in {ts present stage as a “menace,” Einstein expressed hope that it would “intimidate the human race into bringing order into its internation. al affairs.” | This order he would achieve through a world government established by the United States, Great Britain and Russia. To the proposed government all three nations would turn over their full military strength. “Since the United States and Great Britain have the secret of the atomic bomb and the Soviet Union does not,” he sald, “they should invite the Soviet Union to prepare and present the first draft of a constitution for the proposed world government,”

Once Opposed

Now Basic

,By CHARLES LUCEY * Seripps-Howard Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Oct. 27—No= body wants to be regulated. That's the picture you get from tracing important federal regula« tory reform as it has come from congress through the years, Just as labor leaders are now fighting legislation aimed at stabilizing labor=industry relations, so have many business and corporate inter= ests in the past opposed bills ‘they be=lieved would restrict their freee dom. Yet many laws so bitterly op~ posed yesterday are regarded as foundation stones today. When the original wage-hour bill was introduced—a bill nos drastically different from the one enacted—it was seen by the National Association of Manufac~ turers as a step toward Come munism, Bolshevism, Fascism and Naziism and a guarantee that the next depression would be worse than the last,

Mr. Lucey

8 ¥ » AN OFFICIAL of the American Mining Congress said the bills would “repose in a political board the power of life and death over American industries.” He said that wage cuts must follow price drops or the mines would close, and that imposition of Uneconomic wage-hour levels eventually would bring such a closing, When the Norris-LaGuardia bill was up in 1932, Rep. Blanton (D. Tex.) told the hase; » = “DO YOU know ite this bill will lead? Under its provisions it is possible for labor union meme bers to be ordered by.their union in secret session, without publie knowledge, to go out and burn and murder and dynamite and bomb a tremendous plant and kill a thousand people. And no judge in any court.can hold the union or its officers in any way ° responsible.” a yn : WHEN stock exchange control legislation was being in 1934, counsel for the New York Stock Exchange saw the law as “clearly unconstitutional.” Eugene E. Thompson, president of the Associated Stock Exchanges, told the house interstate and fore eign commerce committee:

“There will be an immediate recession of business with the advent of this legislation. There will be deflation and there will be credit chaos.” The Wheeler-Rayburn publie utility holding company act drew the fire of the big utility com-~ bines in 1935.

» » » AN ELECTRIC Bond & Share Co, statement commented that certain provisions of the legisia~ tion “disclose the underlying po= tential dangers of the bill, name~ ly, governmental management as the first step and, as the next ownership and operation of the entire electric utility business of the country as a governmental agency.” Yet today American Gas & Electric, one of the largest utility systems, is approaching the final stages of the break-up exacted by the holding company act, and ob« servers have commented on the fact that it has altered its system with a minimum of subsidiary company losses,
