WEST SIDE SEEKS FIRE PROTECTION

Recent Terre Haute Tragedy Spurs Residents to Ask Extension of City Water Mains; Sewers Also Wanted.

Inadequate sewage facilities and water supply on the West side, problems that have plagued residents there many years, were being tackled today by a determined group. Led by members of the Wayne American Legion post, this group is pressing for an extension of city water- mains to provide health and fire protection to a growing community of more than 75,000 persons. In addition, efforts will be made to obtain storm and sanitary sew-|cost several thousand dollars to coners for the district, long neglected |siruct the required mains. in plans for a Greater Indianapolis.

Only an average, seasonal number of diphtheria cases “have been reported here, reassuring in view of an epidemic in Howard county,

director, said Indianapolis seldom has more than a half-dozen cases at this time of the year, due mainly to the immunization program in the city schools, Nineteen cases have been reported in Howard township, only one of which is in Kokomo. Howard township school has been closed the last week as a result,

‘Nothing Serious’

“There has been a little flareup here from scarlet fever,” the phy« sicilan declared, “but it is nothing serious.”

Commenting on diphtheria, Dr. Kempf asserted that there has been an increase the last few years among adults, This is due to a decline in total cases over the last two or three decades, with the result that fewer persons have been ex- | posed, Only by repeated, slight exposures can a person acquire a matural immunity to ahy disease, the city health director added, Therefore, adults to a large exJens have lost ‘their natural immunity, to diphtheria he said.

up to the White House or the state department today to say whether Andrew Jackson Higgins could or should be prosecuted under the famous Logan act. The Logan act was enacted in 1799. It forbids a United States

citizen to engage, without authorization, in correspondence with a foreign government for the purpose of influencing United’ States foreign policy. At least one state department official is convinced that Mr, Higgins violated the law in his handling of a communication received from President Juan Peron of Argentina, Mr. Higgins is the spectacular New Orleans manufacturer of wartime PT. boats and similar craft. He has now practically heaved a brick through the state department window.

“YLetter Is Forwarded

Mr. Higgins confirmed repdrts that he had received from Mr Peron a communication in which Mr. Peron suggested that Assistant Secretary of State Spruille Braden should be removed from office. He said he had forwarded the letter to five members of congress. Mr. Hjggins supported Mr. Peron's letter with one of his own, It

program in the Western hemisphere had been “knocked to hell” The state department instantly reiterated its approval, of Mr. Braden's policies. They are oriented around a firm and questioning atti tude toward the Peron government in Argentina. Mr, Braden made no public comment. Acting Secretary of State Dean Acheson told questioners Mr. Braden had the full backing of President Truman and of the state de~ partment,
