Loss of Job, Says } Heller - _lnstant dismissal from his job faced every state administration employe for *“disloyalty” to Gov. M. Clifford Townsend and President Roosevelt after a stern warning delivered by Dicki Heller, the governor’s executive secretary and patronage boss. With this warning went the admonition to join Democratic organizations close to the administration particularly the Hoosier Democratic “Two Per Cent” club to which loyal state employes contribute a portion of . their salaries to - maintain -the party’s campaign fund. : Heller also took a left-handed swipe at Senator Frederick VanNuys, whom Townsend has sworn to defeat for remomination at the 1938 convention for his failure to support President Roosevelt.

“It is essential,” Heller said, *that we have men and women in- congress who will carry out the mandates of those whom they represent—not in one instance, but In every instance. If there be those among you who disagree with .the president—if there be those among you who have a conscience against his acts—then it is best that you take that conscience out of the state house. ,

“] say this as kindly as possjble.{ There is no place in the state administration for those who will not be loyal to the Democratic party. “We have a_hard job finding places for the many hard working Democrats who have not yet had state positions. There are very few new jobs. That means every time we hire someone we have to dismiss first those who are not members of this club and the Hoosier Democratic club.” o Gl B l‘ﬁ’

~DISMISSAL 1S WARNING | ————— : ‘ yCowoperate . With Federal || Agents In - Natiomal Fight 1 “Against Crime 1 e 1 Dismissal of Captain Matt Leach | of the Indiana state police was a | warning from Chief G-Man J. Edgar | Hoover to law enforcement officers to o-operate in his natipn-wide fight| against erime.

Complaints to the Indiana state police board eharging that Leach failed to co-operate with federal agents was the first punitive action taken by Hoover to enforce his plea for a co-ordinated ecrime-fighting machine. Hoover's action was his most forceful answer to critics of his federal brueau of investigation who alleged that G-men employ “lone wolf" tacties and that their work lis often “spectacular”. He has in the past made numerous attempts to reeoncile “local officers and federal agents who clashed over investigation methods. The most important step toward co-ordination of the agencies was formation of the national police academy, to which local officers were invited to jearn investigation methods employed by G-men. | Hoover’'s complaint against Leach was based particularly on the hunt tor Al Brady and his gang, but differences between the federal and state enforcement -agencies are said to date back to the nation-wide chase for John Dillinger. Burueau of investigation officials were silent on- the Indiana incident. It was not determined whether the 42. year old G-man chief personally lodged his protest against Leach’s actions before the state board Or placed the matter in the hands of the Indiana field division.
