_ terest and growth in the Indiana
Farm bureau,” Mr. Brandon pointed out today. “Membership in the Indiana bureau is now at the all-time high figure of 68,303 farm families. ““This “figure represents an increase in membership of 14,670 over last year and is 300 in excess of the goal set for Indiana by the American Farm Bureau federation.

{Shelby st.
Motor busses have been substituted for streetcars on Shelby st. and the works board now is in a quandary as to what to do with the idle tracks. Assistant City Attorney O. B. Hanger gave a legal opinion stating the transit firm is obligated to remove rails only where trackless trolleys have replaced streetcars. He advised the city either to ask the railway to rip up the rails, or to perform that job itself, charging the expense to Indianapolis Railways, Inc. Another alternative, he pointed out, is to let the tracks remain, but to insist that the street be kept in safe repair around them.

SCARFACE AL TIED TO RACE NEWS RACKET
Wounded Syndicate Official Charges Mob Trying to ‘Muscle In.
CHICAGO, June 26 (U.P). — A former politician was held for questioning today as police sought to determine whether Scarface Al Ca~pone still rules Chicago's underworld and . seeks to dominate gambling rackets throughout the nation. Charges that he d does were made by James M, Ragen Sr., 65, shot and wounded serfously Monday night by gunmen who used a camouflaged truck to
J. M. Ragen ambush his automobile. Ragen, wealthy distributor of racing results, feared he would be killed by former Capone henchmen
seeking control of gambling. On May 2 he gave authorities a 98-page statement described as the most revealing document ever compiled on Chicago's underworld. Evidence Is Cited In the statement, Ragen cited evidence to show that Capone, notorious crime baron of bootleg
eteering through his lieutenants. The statement charged that Capone was seeking to muscle in on every horserace handbook in the nation. His statement confirmed an earlier exclusive disclosure to the United Press on May 1 that Capone sought to dominate gambling on a nationwide scale. Ragen also charged that former State Senator Dan Serritella had served as political “fixer” for Capone’s underworld syndicate. Police took Serrittella into custody last night. “If I'm wanted I'll go with you, but I don’t know what it’s all about,” he told detectives who arrested him at his home. Ragen’s statement Was released by State's Attorney William J. Tuohy. It charged that the old] Capone mob had sought control of Ragen’s news service, which supplies racing results to gambling] joints. Seeks FBI Investigation By seizing control of the racing information service, Ragen charged that the Capone “syndicate” sought control of handbooks and gambling houses- in Chicago and many other cities. The betting establishments, he pointed out, could not operate without the racing service, which feeds results to handbooks in many cities.
's disclosures prompted U. 8. District Attorney J. Albert Woll to move for an investigation by federal agents on grounds that the syndicate violated the federal anti-racketeering statute. Attorney Woll said he would seek approval of U. S. Attorney General Tom Clark for an PF. B. I. investigation. Ragen, who is an integral part of the gambling business but does not gamble, drink or smoke, has conducted a one-man campaign of resistance against the syndicate. He was shot in the right arm Monday night when he stopped his silvercglored automobile at an intersection. Fire Shotgun Blasts
| A truck, later found and identified as stolen, drew up alongside. Gunmen hiding between fruit crates on the truck fired a shotgun blast into Ragen’s car and another into the car of Ragen’s bodyguards, which was following a few feet behind. Ragen's statement claimed that: ONE: Between 1933 and 1936, Nationwide News Service paid $600,000 to politicians across the country. The news service distributes race results, and Ragen is the general manager, He did not name the politicans, but said the money was paid for political cam-
paigns. and “other reasons.”
