STIVERAND FEENEY BOTH STATEVIEWS Feeney’s Successor is For Enforcement by Local Officers. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.—Al G. Fenney, Indianapolis, was ousted as state police ’ superintendent and Donald F. Stiver, Goshen, was appointed to replace him in a formal announcement Monday by Gov. Paul V. McNutt. Simultantously the governor announced promulgation of the 1935 acts of the legislature. Not Up to State, Enforcement of gambing laws will be up to local authorities, according to Donald Stiver, new superintendent of police, succeeding Al Feeney. Stiver said he felt that his predecessor had pushed gambling to the forefront and that it was “out of Perspective." You cannot stamp out gambling any more than you can liquor. All you can hope to do is to regulate it. If a community of citizens does not object to gambling there isn’t a lot the state can do,” he said. Stiver also said that it is more important to have the cooperation of sheriffs and local officers in apprehending criminals, than it is to interfere with local law enforcement. Feeney’s Statement. In a formal statement issued after Al G. Feeney had been notified of his dismissal, Mr. Feeney fired a parting shot at Pleas E. Greenlee, patronage secretary to Governor P. V. McNutt. Mr. Feeney said that “if, as I understand, the Governor intimates the state police are somewhat disorganized I am not so surprised; in fact. I am the men functioned as w>fl> ! "*they did with almost perpetual ntoiors of my discharge persisting for two years when one word from theKovernor would have aided the mors of the department greatly. V “I would be lacjAg in gratitude were I not to pay tmbue to the men and women of the Aht departments which I headed, wfio with few exception* did their work ously and well,” Ms. Feeney said. “Particular due the state police. This .small of men worked long hours Ulder conditions far from ideal and b*e stood like a stone wall against ? bullying and threats of discharge, rather than grant special favors to those in high places. Their only protection was my word that as long as they did their duty no one would remove them. The people of this state owe these loyal servants a debt of gratitude." Time to Fight Politics. , Mr. Feeney’s statement continued: “I seem to have incurred the ill will of the gambling fraternity, particularly hoodlum* and gunmen operating in southern Indiana, slot machine barons whose million dollar racket even robbed school children of their lunch money until run out of the state, a northern Indiana lake retort owner predicted my removal from office more than a month ago, a mysterious ‘colonel,’ who was unable to make a deal with me and has been loud in his abuse ever since, and others too numerous to mention. These persons all claimed to have great influence, but I am proud to say that it never has extended to the ■tate police department. “My discharge should be a warning to all police departments that the war against crime is pretty well won but the big fight must commence soon—the one against the selfish politician who is undermining police and fire departments for his own benefit. “Sorry” For Governor. “I don’t think any reason which can be advanced by the Governor for my discharge will be either fair or convincing but that is for the citizen of Indiana to decide. 1 fear the Governor has been forced to dispense with my services and when a chief executive finds himself in that sort of predicament I am sorry for him rather than resentful. I regret that in enforcing the laws of this state, it has been necessary to offend some of the Governor’s friends as well as my own, but I leave the service of the state of Indiana, without shame, without apologies and a feeling that I have done my best. “My successor has only my good will because the work he will be called upon to perform involves the lives and safety of the people and 1* much Hgger t any individual.

The way to So that is to wear a weighted belt to keep one under water, and have strings tied about the fingers. When one’s lungs first commence to feel like bursting, according to him, one should untie one of the strings on one finger, and tie it to another, to take one’s mind off the matter of bursting lungs. He taught a number of young children of Wawasee residents to swim, last summer. The Better-Brush convention was held at Sargent’s hotel from Sunday until Wednesday.
