SCOUTS TO
HELP GUARD
THE STREETS

At6 of the older Boy Scouts OF
uaunond will be asked by CHIEF Aust
xan of the Hammond police IN manu-
1,,z the crowds of school children anu
,-aventinr accidents in crossing BUSY
streets on the way to anu from school
chief Austgen said THIS morning that
ba would take the matter up at once
with Scout Executive l. X Scott
There have been an unusually large
number of accidents since school be-
gan due 10 the smaller children run
ming blindly across streets. often dir
ectlv into the path of an automobile
before the driver has time 70 check
his car or turn aside.
The average child is told to watch
out for automobiles and hurry across
the streets. He frequently stands a
long time on a corner and finally de-
cides he must get across some way or
pe ate in getting home or to school
II he looks at all it Is generally in
the wrong direction.
Many OF the scouts have training in
this kind of work and would be glad
to act as traffic cops aypund their
schools" said Chief Austgen. I'VE
haven't enough men to place al the
dangerous crossings at each school
The scouts could arrange their schedule
SO that several Of them would be on
hand before and after school 10 help
the littlier ones across the street. They
could alternate days. so that not one
OF them would have more than one day
a week of II. I think the boys on duty
should be in uniform as 1t would COM
mand greater respect from the children
and at the same time motorists from
all over the country would recognize
their authority"

CHICAGO. Sept. 26.-Wholesale dis
missal of hundreds Of policemen and
the indictment of many loomed today
as the probable outcome of Chief Of
Police Charles Fitzmorris' drive to di-
vorce the police department from
Illicit liquor traffic The chief charg
ed in a sensational statement made
late Saturday that at least half the
members of the Chicago police force
were involved in booze deals.
CLYNE GATHERS EVIDENCE.
United States District Attorney
Charles F. Clyne was to present to the
chief today evidence gathered by fed
eral prohibition agents involving
members of the police department.
Chief Fltzmorrls promised immediate
suspension Of all officers against
whom evidence Is presented.
we have evidence against scores Of
policemen which we lre getting in
shape for the grand jury" Clyne said
today Il cannot say how many po-
Hcemen are involved in liquor deals
but the number Is large"
SWEEPING TRANSFER ORDER.
AS one step in the plan to break up
booze traffic in the department Chief
Fitzmorris has prepared sweeping
transfer order shifting the personnel
Of the department. Hundreds of Off
GERS and patrolmen are TO be assigned
to new duties in new sections of tbs
city.
Chief Fitzmorris made 1t plain that
his motive Is not drive TO enforce
prohibition laws but to achieve effici-
ency in the police department. The
police department will not be efficient
until it has been completely separated
from theSliquor traffic" the chief said
Il am going to go the limit TO sepa-
rate them No good policeman is i'm
plicated in a booze deal"

The chief charged that federal offi-

CHfCAGO, Sept IS The Pennsyl-
vania railroad and the United States
Railway Labor Board are at logger
heads today and a bitter fight 70 de
eide the points to issue between the
railroad and the board IS in prospect
Other railroads may be drawn into a
nrht that eventually rnay result In
legislation or court action to deter
mine the scope OF the labor board 5
powers.
REFUsED TO PARTICIPATE.
The Pennsylvania has dehed the la
Dor board and denied its right to i'm
pose rules by which the board shall
deal with It's employees. The railroad
has refused to participate in an oral
hearing here today at which the board
planned TO hear arguments in connec-
ton with the shop crafts committee
election dispute.
In letter sent to the labor board
by Samuel Rea- president OF tho Penn
sylvania made it clear that the road
intended 10 ignore the ruling OF the
board which prescribed the manner in
which employees OF the road should
elect representatives to deal with the
raiIvay officials in matters pertaining
70 working rules and conditions. Rea
charged the board with arrogating to
itself the power TO ignore the decisions
Of the United States supreme court.
CANNOT ACCEPT VIEWS.
The carrier cannot accept these
views of the board" Rea's letter said
Novel and startling though they may
be. and II followed TO their logical
conclusion, revolutionary in effect. It
does not believe that the sransporta
ton act has deprived or was intended
by congress to deprive either employees
or employers OF their constitutional
and legal rights as established by the
supreme court and other courts Of the
United States"
The defiance OF the board by the
Pennsylvania is climax to a hgnt by
that railroad TO establish the open
shop" on its lines and to refuse recog-
milton to unions OF railroad workers
The road had persistently refused TO
recognize the unions as organizations
in dealing with its employees. A re
cent order of the board directed the
Pennsylvania to deal with representa-
tives OF the employees chosen by the
unions The road app saled for re-
hearing on this order and it's plea was
granted but with restrictions that the
railroad has refused to accept.
Whether other railroads will follow
the lead OF the Pennsylvania was be-
Ing watched with interest today.

Southern Italy with great satisfac-

There he was taken i'll, and when his
condition became serious many old
associates went 10 watch over him in
case he attempted to make a death
led confession. He died without MAX
ing any revelations, however, and
they were able to turn home free
from the shadow of impending i'm
rrisonment.
