Total Up to July 25 Stands Three Times Above War Years.

By LARRY STILLERMAN New construction and repair in Indianapolis reached a seven-year high in the first seven months of 1946 despite the building material shortage, city building commission records showed today. Records show that permits for new construction and repairs in this period are triple that of comparable periods during the war. They are approximately twice the amoufit in the same seven-month period in 1939. : A total of 9337 permits with a valuation of $05,111,208 has been ‘issued up to July 25. This is nearly three times the $5,616,569 valuation on 5014 permits issued during the same period last year,

* 641 for Dwellings It is also triple the $5,823,844 new construction and repair valuation in the first seven months of 1942 The 1039 valuation of $8,866,830 does

not begin to approach it. Of the 9337 permits issued this

year, 790 were for residential and commercial buildings. These permits were valued at $8,977,950, more than half the total valuation of all permits awarded so far this year. A total of 641 permits for dwellings was valued at $3,140,458—also a seven-year high. Last year, only 224 dwelling permits at a value of $1,107,410 were issued in a similar seven-month ' period, and in 1939, 504 permits with a $2,356,520 valuation were issued. Bulk Before March 26 However, the 641 permits for new houses were only 65 per cent of the total permits issued. Even so, permits for new dwellings were more than five times the number of permits issued for new industrial and business buildings. The bulk of the 149 permits for new industrial and commercial structures valued at $5,837,402 was issued before March 26. At this time, civilian production administration placed restrictions on commercial construction. Larger structures, consumption of more material and the increased cost of construction account for the higher valuation of commercial permits, construction leaders state.

Big Firms Get Materials Construction experts said smaller contractors couldn't compete with the larger, organized builders in securing high-priority material, Larger firms swallowed most materials and labor to block efforts of smaller residential builders. This was especially true in February when large construction firms knew by the 12th of the month that CPA was planning to impose strict regulations on commercial erection Jobs by March 26. ‘ Therefore, more permits were sought and building foundations laid before the regulations became effective, one construction official admitted.” *

- By HARVEY HARRIS Leo Krzycki, vice president of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, was in Indianapolis today to address the state C. I. O. convention at the Antlers hotel, The veteran labor leader was to tell the nearly 600 delegates this morning some of his experiences at the recent World Federation of Trade Unions convention in Paris. Mr, Krzycki visited 10 countries on his five-month European tour,

A believer in political action and “greater TVA-ism” the silver-haired union leader wants it to be known, nevertheless, that he is an apostle of private ownership—small business, No Stranger Here Barrell-chested Mr. Krzycki is no stranger here. He took part in organizing the Bendix workers at South Bend when they conducted the first sit down strike in Indiana That was in 1936. ; In his pean tour he visited Premier lin, Marshal Tito, Czechoslavakian President Eduard Benes and other famous officials. “I found Mr. Stalin warm and friendly during my hour and a half discussion with him,” the union executive said. “He is -a simple human being who makes it easy for one to enter into his presence. Among dll the European leaders I ‘met, none was so humble and human as Stalin.” Admirer of U. S.

Mr. Krzycki found Mr, Stalin greatly interested in American production “of which he is a great admirer.” : “Mr. Stalin couldn't understand why 8,000,000 Americans would be

As president of the national Congress of American Slavs, the labor leader was interested in the progress of Bulgaria and Yugoslavia. These countries he found recuperating.

DALLAS, Tex. July 27 (U.

The weatherman promised sunny skies and perfect weather for the statewide primary in which an estimated 150,000 Negroes were eligible to participate for the first time in the state's 100-year history. The gubernatorial race, in which 12 candidates seek the nomination, headed the long election ballot, with the other top stake the U, S. senate seat held by Senator Tom Connolly, United Nations delegate and chair man of the senate committee on foreign relations, Senator Connally, who limited his campaigning to one radio speech from Washington, was considered an easy winner over four minor opponents.

worth, Kas., to succeed Archbishop Ritter here. Archbishop Ritter will control the archdiocese post left vacant last March by the death of Cardinal John J. Glennon. Elevated to the post as first head of the new See here in November, 1944, Archbishop Ritter has been the ranking Catholic dignitary in Indianapolis since 1934, when he succeeded the late Bishop Joseph Chartrand as bishop of the local diocese.,

Ordained in 1917

The Hoosier born archbishop was ordained in 1917. He immediately received an appointment as assistant at St. Patrick’s Catholic church here. Six months later he was transferred to SS Peter and Paul Cathedral as an assistant. In 1920 Archbishop Ritter became first assistant to Bishop Chartrand. In 1925 he was named pastor of the Cathedral. High church rank was first bestowed upon Archbishop Ritter in March, 1933, when he was chosen titular Bishop of Hippus and auxiliary bishop of the Indianapolis diocese. Archbishop Ritter received audience with Pope Pius in April, 1939, and on May 6 of that year made his ad limina report at the Vatican City. The new Catholic head of the Indianapolis See, Archbishop Schulte, served as bishop of the Leavenworth diocese in Kansas since 1937 until his appointment here. He is an authority on Catholic history of the Mississippi Valley and is author of “The Catholic Heritage of St. Louis” and other historical books. Archbishop Schulte received a master of arts degree from St. Francis Solanus college, Quincy, Ill. He then entered Kenrick Seminary, Webster Groves, Mo. He was ordained upon his graduation in 1915. He became assistant pastor of the Old Cathedral at St. Louis after his ordination and was administrator of the cathedral from 1922 until 1929, when he became pastor, a position he held until 1937.

The petition also asks for “a full and complete statement of the financial affairs, showing particularly all receipts and disbursements since ‘incorporation of the corps.” Officers to Confer

The petition charges directors are “making money, by the work of members of the corps, such as furnishing manpower to operate a carnival, and expending money for a full-time salary for the battalion commander.” The petition alleges that ‘“somewhere between $2000 and $4000 has been accumulated by the corps.” Learning of the petition’s circulation, Maj. “Houghtaln called a meeting of the six captains for tomorrow, Until then, he said he had no comment to make on reports he was being paid a salary. One of the captains, Norbert Pich, admitted “the matter of a salary for Maj. Houghtalen was discussed at a meeting of the board of directors.”

‘Probably’ Being Paid

Asked whether the commander is receiving a salary now, Capt. Pich added: “I guess he probably is.” Police Lt, Golden Reynolds, formerly advisor to the corps, said he thought there was “about $4000 in the treasury.” One of the circulators of the petition, Pvt. William Durham, an employee of the state highway department, declared “we are getting tired of being dictated to.” “What are you, a troublemaker?” he said he was asked by Maj. Houghtalen. Pvt. Durham was demoted from second lieutenant last fall, he asserted, after he circulated another petition, He said the Cavalcade of Amusements was brought here by the corps for a 10-day stand endin, last Thursday at the circus grounds on Southeastern ave. Manned by Corps Members of the corps provided the manpower for taking tickets and other duties, often working as long as 12 hours, Pvt. Durham added. He recalled the corps was guaranteed $1500 by show officials, $1000 of which was to be paid for use of the grounds. . Funds have been received from the Sahara Grotto, Coliseum management and other organizations for work done by corps members, he added. Lt. Reynolds said corps funds are audited regularly and a report made to the dingctors. One of the captains, Harry Matillo, resigned recently when asked to agree to the payment of a salary to Maj.

This, in passing, is one of the deadliest crimes Indiana is perpetrating against its mentally ill— fallure to protect the uninfected from the infected in many instances and failure to protect those in-

Problem of Ruhr Industries

When foreign ministers meet in fall to discuss problems of Austria and Germany, effort will be made to form great international core poration to take over Ruhr industries. ‘Directors would be Big Four. Corporation would assume owner- | ship of Ruhr industries but would permit present owners to operate them and to hold stock in the corporation equal to their present holdin Profits would be distributed in relation to holdings.

Reduced Tax Rates?

It's safe guess next. tax legislation will reduce rates, despite President’s threat of higher taxes if necessary to combat inflation. Republicans already are promising 20 per cent tax cut next year and Democrats will have to compete lest Republicans ride that issue to point of forcing President to veto popular tax relief measure. One possible Democratic proposal: Permit married couples in all states to divide earnings for tax purposes as is already done in community property states. Look for G. O.
