District Honor Founder Harris

MEMBERS PRESENT FROM INDIANA AND ILLINOIS AT TURKEY RUN MEETING

TURKEY RUN STATE PARK. Doc. 7. Paul Harris, founder of Rotary International, returned to Turkey Run state park, which he calls his “winter home,” to be honored by more than 150 Rotarians from Indiana and Illinois here Thursday. The occasion was a meeting of group of five of the Indiana Rotary distrist held in Turkey Run Inn with the Crawfordsville club acting as host. Large representations were present from Crawfordsville, Terre Haute, Indianapolis, Frankfort, Lebanon, Greeneastle anil Sheridan, but many members from other parts of the state and from Illinois attended

the meeting.

Mr. Harris, the honored guest of the meeting, was the principal speaker on the program immediately following a splendid luncheon served at 1 o’clock. The subject of his address was "Service Above Self,” the Rotary slogan, upon whieh the founder of the organization delivered a brilliant talk on philosophies of life. Perry Lewis, president of the Crawfordsville club, first presented T. C. Crabbs, of Crawfordsville, after the luncheon was concluded. Mr. Crabbs introduced Robert Heun, of Richmond, past district Rotary governor and prominent in Rotary activities, who acted as chairman of

the meeting.

Talks, all of them paying tribute to Mr. Harris, were given by Frank Manley, of Indianajolis, first district governor; Charles Watkins, of Muncie, a past district governor, and Raymond Willis, of Angola, present district governor. During the course of his remarks. Mr. Harris declared that "overprivileged,” not "underprivileged" men had been the worry of the nation in the last few years. He contrasted a report that twenty prominent business men had committed suicide in Chicago during the past year with the lot of Chicago’s unpaid school teachers. While influential leaders of the business world took their own lives as the easiest way out when they were caught in a whirlpool of falling values, he said, the thousands of school teachers who went for months without their salaries continued to work and kept their heads up until better things should come along. Not a suicide was recorded among teachers, Mr. Harris said.

200 Executed By Soviets, Report LONDON, Dec. 7 *UP>—The Daily Express, in a dispatch without con firmation from other sources, credited to its Warsaw correspondent today an assertion that 200 persons had been shot altogether at Leningrad and Moscow in reprisal for the murder of Sergei Kirov. The Daily Express said that those shot included Leonid Micoliev, Kirov’s assassin; his wife, sons, daughters and mother. Josef Stalin, the Daily Express reported, ruthlessly continued the "purge” against enemies of the govornment yesterday. It was asserted that there was a desperate gun fight in Leningrad in which ten persons were killed. The fight occurred, it was said, when members of the Leningrad garrison "rushed" to assist Moscow secret police agents who had been sent to arrest members of the Leningrad secret

police force.

MAKE SURE YOUR TABLE LINEN IS ALL YOU EXPECT Have you ever had the disappointing experience of finding that you have a tablecloth of the "Tight Edge” variety. There are types of linen Damask tablecloth which with repeated laundering, develop unequel shrinkage in certain yams running parrallel to the selvage edges. This is due to variation in the shrinking qualities of the yarns and most likely to happen in the cheaper grades of double Damask. Buy a good grade of tablecloth and let the laundry return them to you snowy while and with a finish impossible to get at home.

Stein, Weiss To Lead Assembly BLOOMFIELD MAN CHOSEN SPEAKER OF INDIANA HOUSE INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 7. — Selection of Edward H. Stein of Bloomfield as speaker of the house and Jacob Weiss. Indianapolis, as president pro tern of the senate, appeared certain today as preparations were made for a meeting of Democratic members of the Indiana general assembly here Saturday. Stein was the Democratic floor leader two years ago and Senator Weiss was prominent in assisting the administration in its legislative program. The Democrats will have a 38 to 12 majority in the senate during the session beginning next Jan. 10, and a 65 to 35 majority in the house. Frank G. Thompson, a Bluffton publisher, was said today to he the likely choice of the Democrats as majority floor leader in the house. John Napier Dyer of Vincennes probably will be made Democratic caucus chairman in the lower chamber, although Hardin S. Linke of Columbus also is being supported for the place. The Democratic caucus chairmanship in the senate appeared to be between Ward G. Biddle of Bloomington and Henry F. Schricker of Knox. Senator Walter S. Chambers of Newcastle, a veteran legislator, was favored by party leaders for theplace, but declined. Stein was majority leader in the house two years ago, when Earl Crawford of Milton, was speaker. Crawford was defeated for re-elec-tion last month. Senator Weiss has been active in pushing his campaign for the majority leadership as president pro tern in the senate. He helped write the beer bill passed by the last legislature and has been a loyal administration follower. Governor F’aul V. McNutt called the meeting scheduled for Saturday. He will talk to both senators and representatives-elect at a general meeting, outlining the bills needed to carry out party platform pledges. Senate and house members then will separate for individual^caucuses, at which they are scheduled to choose their leaders for the approaching session. Don B. Irwin, Republican state chairman, will call Republican legislators into another meeting here within a few days. They met several weeks ago. hut did not complete organization.
