GERMAN RED CROSS
GETS BIG GIFT OF
AMERICAN WORKERS
(Ry Associated Press)

! BERLIN, Jan. 2-The American
section of the German Red Cross is
the recipient Of a check for 2.boo. 900
marks donated by relief committees
In the United States for the benefit
OF tubercular and under nourished
German children. More than 1000 OF
these children will thus be able to
go to sections where climatic and
food conditions promise them health.
Only the advanced cases OF juve-
nile tuberculosis will be transferred
to Switzerland as the German Red
Cross is compelled to proceed with
the greatest economy in the distribu-
ton of funds.
Favor Hoover Plan.
Herbert Hoover's plan to co-ordi-
nate American food relief so far as 1t
concerns the transfer Of personal do
: nations from Americans to Germans
is hailed here with enthusiasm as 1t
is believed it will terminate abuses
resulting from indiscriminate ship
ments through American forwarding
agents.
It Is said that most packages arriv-
ing in this way not only arrive In poor
condition but that the quality of the
contents indica tes that the minimum
amount Of attention is given the Sc
lection Of food, the manner OF pack
ing and the method Of shipment.

mittee has accepted an overture OF
Herbert Hoover to take charge of the
feeding Of the starving children of
Germany. Richmond Friends are on
the special committee and some have
been sent to Germany to do staff
work. Representatives of the Eng
lish Friends, attending the Forward
Movement conference, asked for
American cooperation in the relief
work in Central Europe.

C0NFEREES DIFFER ON
RAIL BILL CLAUSES
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-In resum.
ing conferences today on the railroad
reorganization legislation. senate and
house managers met their first wide
difference over the provision authoriz-
ing the Interstate commerce commits
sion to establish minimum rates for
transportation partly by water and
partly by rail. The question was
passed over temporarily and provis-
ions regarding state and federal
freight regulations taken up.
The house conferees are said to be
insistent on the clause authorizing the
commission to establish minimum
rates for water and rail transportation.
A similar provision was rejected by
the senate because senators interested
in waterway transportation declared
the commission might establish mini.
mum rates too high in the interest
of the railroads.

MURDERER EXPIkTES
CRIME BEFORE 200
OF HIS CELLMATES
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Jan. 2.-An experiment
in psychology was tried out this morn
ing, at the county Jail, in the grizzly
dim hour Of dawn, when 200 prisoners
were forced to witness the hanging of
Raffalo Durrage, convicted murderer.
Hardened criminals - selected from
among other murderers and felons
whose expiration is not yet the gal
lows-were placed in cells, tier on
tier, which surrounded the square in
which the scaffold had been erected.
1t was the contention Of Sheriff
Peters that the sight of the gruesome
trappings would have most statutory
effect upon those In whise life might
come future temptation to ~slay or to
rob or to burn.
And so firmly the sheriff believed
in the efficacy Of this idea that he
persisted in 1t despite the request from
Governor Frank o. Lowden that he
abandon the plan, and the other pro-
tests from scores Of other persons,
who thought the scheme unnecessarily
brutal
Stage Is Set.
Accordingly the stage was set In the
death chamber, Durrage was led forth.
The quiet In the death chamber be.
came absolute for moment. Then
the moose was slipned over the murder
er's head From one Of the higher
tiers came a strident shout:
when do we eat?"
Tier by tier, cell by cell, the cry was
taken up. 1t became a roar above
which the warders' voices could not
be heard.
The trap was sprung. Durrage
dropped into the space beneath the
scaffold-dead.
when do we eat?" was his re
QUEEN.
No objections Made.
Sheriff Peters declared after the
execution that Governor Lowden's
secretary telephoned the Jail and
asked regarding plans for the hanging
but did not object to the sheriff's pro
gram.
Just before the execution, the re
ceiver of the only telephone connect
ing the Jail with the outside world
was removed from it's hook in Ja1lel
Davis Office.
It was reported that this action
was taken to prevent a possible re
prieve of the condemned man at the
last minute. When asked for an ex
planation, Jailor Davis smiled and
said:
"I can't say why it was done. Yor
sec the telephone is out OF order.

attache Of the department Of justice,

had distributed tons OF seditious
literature.

INTEREST ON BARRETT

Announcement that formal charges
have been filed by Jesse e. Eschbach,

that they have retained $150,306.71 in

Is contended by the board of accounts,
belongs to the city of Indianapolis,

1t is assumed that II Sourbier and
Won Hake are required to pay the
interest they collected into the city
treasury, a like course will be re-
quired OF all other treasurers and for
mer treasurers in the state who have
retained interest on Barret law funds.
Interest Hero 500
In Wayne county the county treas
,urer handles all funds for the city of
Richmond. Improvements under the
Barrett law have been numerous
here for many years and the interest
collected on such funds amounts to
approximately 500 a year. County
Treasurer Weidner said he had anti
cipated that the right of treasurers
to retain such interest would be chal.
,lenged and that during the two years
and half that he has held office, he
has turned the interest received on
the fund into the general fund of the
city. which amount is now approx.
,mately $1,000. Since June Of last
year Weidner has been taking cash.
