ESTABLISHMENT OF NATIONAL FOREST IN SOUTHERN IN- - DIANA IS AUTHORIZED Federal Government Moves to Acquire 800,999 Acres in 11 Connties to be Recreational Area. With the federal government now engaged in the acquisition of nearly 500,000 acres of southern **lndiana land and approval given for acquisition of an additional 300,000 acres in that section of the state, one of the major goals of Hoosier conservationists is being realised. This area when acquired by the federal government will constitute approximately one-thirtieth of the total acreage of the state, including land in eleven cotfnties —Perry, Crawford, Harrison, Orange, and Washington. It will include territory in which are seven of the present state forest, Harrison county state forest, Brown county state park. Brown county state gkme farm, Spring Mill state park and the Avoca state fish hatchery. Plans for the purchase of land in the approved area are being worked out and options have already been taken on a number of properties. Purchases will be made of lands available and no owner will be forced to sell against his will. The plans for the acquisition of the area do not contemplate immediate purchase of the entire acreage but purchases of such tracts as are now available and may become available over a period of years until the entire tracts have been acquired. The government also plans some form of assistance for present inhabitants of the area in becoming established in sections where the opportunities for profltable cultivation of the soil are greater and the social and educational advantages will be superior to those which many of these people have enjoyed. Many details connected with the project are yet to be determined. Will Become Recreational Areas. The land to be acquired by the federal government will be developed as a national forest, becoming a refuge for wildlife and recreational areas. It will include parks, game preserves, public hunting grounds and similar facilities contributing to the out-of-door life of Indiana residents and their neighbors from mid-dle-western states. It is anticipated that development of this area for hunting and fishing will within a few years attract increased throngs of sportsmen to Indiana, developing a source of revenue that already plays an important part in the prosperity of many northern Indiana communities. In several states the annual revenue drawn from tourists and sportsmen amounts to millions of dollars. Indiana, through the establishment of this forest area, will profit increasingly as greater number of tourists, hunters and fishermen are drawn to the state. The area selected by the federal government is a part of the general area laid out by the State Planning Board in its preliminary report, as suited for such development as is now proposed by the federal government. The planning board listed a total area of about 3,000,090 acres, or approximately an eighth of the total acreage of the state. Surveys made by the planning board on the larger acreage may ks applied with reasonable accuracy to the smaller area selected by the federal government since all the land in the federal project is included in the territory covered by the planning board. The board found in its study covering the larger area that the number of deserted farms per county in the area was nearly double that for the remaining southern Indiana counties (106 compared to 56) and over ten times that of the entire northern part of the state, (106 compared to 10) while the per capita farm income in the survey area was but $166 against $224 in the other southern district and $323 in the northern half of the state. In the area proposed by the planning board it was found that 160 of the 188 school corporations or 85 per cent, rely on the state for funds, meaning that only 15 per cent are not totally or partially dependent on aid from sources entirely outside the area. The study revealed that the best agricultural land in this section lies in creek and river bottoms, composing about 27 per cent of the total area. Os the total arable land, about 56 per cent is classed as marginal or submarginal by the agricultural agents in the counties involved. A majority of the remainder is hilly, highly weathered, infertile and eroded in many places. — o ANNOUNCEMENT MADE When Mrs. Isabel Grieger entertained at three tables of bridge at her home, Monday, the party came •ea surprise to the guests, as one of the guests, who was there, was Mrs. Elsie Rogers Myers, Mrs. Grieger’s niece who had come from Boston, Sunday. Mrs. Grieger told the guests that the party was to announce the coming marriage of her niece to Rec. Ragmar Byrenius, Christian Science pastor, of Boston. Mrs. Myers plans to return to Boston before the first of the month, taking with her, her son John, who has been tn the First Grade here, staying with Mrs.-Grieger. Among the guests at the party was Mrs. Faye Alward of South Bend. Prize for high score was won by Mrs. ’ Walter Kegg.

DIVORCE GRANTED AND MAIDEN NAME OF DOROTHYP IRWIN RESUMED A divorce from Theo. McCormick of St. Louis, was granted Dorothy Irwin McCormick of Lake Wawasee, and the right to resume her m iden name, when the case was heard by Judge Donald Vanderveer, yesterday morning. They were married Feb. 12, 1933, at St. Jacobs, about 15 miles from East St. Louis, and parted at once, according to the plaintiff, and had never lived together. She stated that she was 18 years old then, was visiting a friend, and she had been persuaded to marry the man who plays in an orchestra in St. Louis, while at her friend’s home. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. Irwin of the Lake Wawasee Golf course did not learn of the marriage until last summer. Judge Vanderveer said that according to testimony heard, the marriage evidently had never been consumated, and that it looked to him like “an unadulterated case for annulment.” He said that regardless of the evidence, it was a pure matter of policy that the marriage of these two parties should be broken up, so the court “strained itself’ to grant the divorce to the plaintiff. The court omitted from the record the usual words following the granting of a divorce, “finding the allegations of the complaint true.” Suit for divorce had been filed last summer by the plaintiff and had the court decided it should be an annulment instead of a divorce it would have made it necessary for a suit to be filed to have the marriage annuled. 0 MARRIAGE ANNOUNCED. Announcement is being made of the marriage of Mrs. Jennie Connorton, former resident of Syracuse, who came from Chicago a few months ago and bought property near the lake, and A. O. Winans. The ceremony was performed in Warsaw Saturday afternoon by Justice of the Peace Fred W. Stokes. 0 IN J URIES~CAUSE DEATH Albert Garber, 71, North Webster bank president, who was injured in an automobile aocident the Sunday before, died in the hospital in Warsaw last Sunday, from injuries. Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon from the Church of God in North Webster. 0 .

I ( | PIKE COUNTY IS SITE OF NEW STATE FOREST I INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — Acquisition of nearly two thousand acres of land in Marion township, Pike county, for the establishment of a new state forest, was announced by Virgil M. Simmons, Commissioner of the Department of Conservation. More than three hundred acres of this area was donated to the state for forestry purposes and additional gifts of land are expected. Practically all of the area acquired had been tax delinquent for a period of years or had been taken over by. the county on old school fund mortgage loans and was transferred to the state by Pike county officials at a cost to the state of $1 per acre. The major part of this land had been abandoned by the former owners and but one or two families are now residing on the land involved. Originally the land in this tract was purchased with the expectation of mining coal but the hopes of the 'purchasers vrere lost when the overlying soil was consideied too deep for stripping to uncover the coal. Approximately two-thirds of the area acquired by the state through purchase or gift is already wooded and a survey will be conducted by the Division of Forestry to plan reforestation of the entire area and its development as a state property. The land is located on both banks of the Patoka River, east of Winslow. Addition of this land to the present state forestry holdings will make a total of approximately 30,000 acres of state forests in Indiana. This new forest property does not come within the area selected by the federal government for acquisition as a part of its submarginal land program. 0 ROUND TABLE ENTERTAINS WITH VALENTINE-TEA PARTY, MONDAY NIGHT Oh Monday evening the Ladies of the Round Table held a ValentineTea party in the basement of the Lutheran church. Members of the club and guests numbering 50 attended this party, the purpose of which was to raise money for the foundation fund. The first number on the program was a solo by Mrs. J. S. Pritchard, accompanied by Miss Margaret Smith. Then Martha Ann Thornburg and Marilyn Holloway entertained with a tap dance.

Miss Helen Jeffries sang a solo, followed by one by Mrs. Hugh Causer. The last number on the program was the play entitled: “The Lamp Went Out.” This was enacted by Mrs. Phyllis Auer, Mrs. Wilma Hire Mrs. Pritchard, Mrs. Ralph Disher and Mrs. Charles Crow.

THIEF ADMITS (Continued from page One) prisoners, Ruple pointed to Rader and said “That’s the bastard that held me up.” Officers told Ruple not to talk. They had the man put on the hat and coat Ruple had selected (which were Rader’s) and the man left his coat open. Mrs. Ruple said no, to put the coat up around his neck. Warren told them how the hat was pulled down. When he was dressed according to instructions, they said positively that that was the thief. Mr. and Mrs. Warren Ruple left the cell room, and were waiting to be taken to another room to see Rader’s brother, who was held on suspicion to learn if Ruples had ever seen him before. In five minutes they were told Rader had confessed. They returned to the ceil room and discussed freely with the man, incidents on the night he robbed their filling station here in Syracuse. I 4 Rader had been sentenced to serve 1 from 1 to 20 years at the Illinois , state prison at Joliet, on a charge I .of robbery without a gun. He was ■ received at the prison on January 16, 1933, and escaped Dec. 14, 1934. In his investigations of recent fill- ‘ ing station robberies, Sheriff .'Yeager found that Rader had been staying at the Teeple home off and on for two weeks. He was suspected of staging holdups in Milford, at the Conrad garage and filling station and the Standard station in Warsaw, as well at the Syracuse robbery. 4 John (Jake) Rader, who was arrested Monday made no confession that day to the officers, but he had .in his possession a black jack and it is thought he may have been the one who black-jacked Charles Blodgett, Leesburg mail messenger a the Big Four station on the night of Jan. 17 w’hen the messenger was robbed of $7.75. « Both Laivrence and John Rader i are sons of J. P. Rader, a farmer who lives near Oswego. John Rader has been employed at the Stony Ridge hotel, Tippecanoe Lake, for two or three years. Affidavits were signed yesterday but not filed in court, until further ; investigation of Rader, his brother, ’ and the Don. Teeple family in whose i home Rader was found, was made by Sheriff Yeager. These charge Lawrence Rader with robbery while armed, with automobile banditry. He insists that he was hitch-hiking and a man in a Ford coupe picked him up on the night of the robbery here in Syracuse. He claims the two decided they were both broke and would commit a robbery. Rader got out and held up the Ruple filling station. When asked where he got the gun, Rader said he took it out of the car of this stranger who picked him up. John Rader can be held, charged with carrying a concealed weapon, the black jack. He also purchased a pistol from Charles Spencer before his brother Lawrence broke jail in December. Lawrence Rader escaped from the Illinois prison after .serving part of a one to 20 years sentence. He can be returned to Illinois to complete the term, or if held for trial here, can likely receive a heavy sentence for being an habitual criminal. The Illinois charge has been proven, but if he is sent back there to serve; time, and if paroled in a few years, J evidence would be lacking and may- * be witnesses dead when he would be • brought to Indiana for trial. But if sentenced in Indiana, he could complete that term and then be taken* to Illinois where he has been sentenc- j ed and escaped, to complete that, term. Although, when questioned, pros- ' ecuting Attorney Seth E. Rowda- j baugh said that he did not know j whether an Indiana prison could hold > him if he escaped from one in Illinois ' Rowdabaugh said: “You know what ■ we heard during the recent election, • that an Indiana prison is as easy to get out of as a Roosevelt marriage.” HAVE SURPRISE PARTY. Last Friday evening members of the Pythian Sisters lodge held a sur- < prise party in honor of Mrs. Will Darr, at her home. Mrs. Darr is a charter member of the lodge and has been unable to attend ipeetings for more than a year because of ill health.
