SIX POLICE DIE
IN TWO MONTHS
Pension Fund Reaches $780,
900 Through Rewards, Dues.

Six members Of the Indianapolis po-
lice department have died since Oct.
IL, records of Lieut.. Samuel Gaddis,
secretary of the police pension fund,
showed today.
They were Mrs. Mamie Shelton,
colored, policewoman; Patrolman Peter
Tepoff, William Whitfield, colored;
Michael Raftery and Robert Kinsey
and Detective Henry Askins.
Wives of five policemen have died
since Aug. ID.
There are 1873 dependents of dead
policemen on the pension pay roll,
which totaled 1851 last month.
The pension fund is kept up by taxa
ton, rewards received by the police
department for captures of criminals
and recovery of stolen property and
assessment Of each member $1.25 a
month. Income exceeds the annual
expense and the fund, now over $780,
900, is gradually being built to a point
where interest, rewards and assess
ment will be sufficient to warrant
elimination of the tax levy.
Receipts from rewards have dropped
materially this year because the State
automobile police have been getting
most of the fees for recovering stolen
motor cars, Gaddis said.

CHARGE OIL RATE
DISCRIMINATION

AS a part Of the Statewide fight
put up by the Indiana State Chamber
of Commerce to obtain lower freight
rates on petroleum and allied prod
ucts, forces in South Bend, Terre
Haute and Evansville have been or
ganized by George H. Mosser, manag-
inc director of the chamber. and r.
B Coapstick. manager of the freight
and traffic department. The big users
OF petroleum products and allied prod
ucts are cooperating with the cham
Der in a fight to equalize the freight
rates.
The petroleum case Will be tried be-
fore the Interstate Commerce Com
mission here. probably next month,
according to Coapstick. Briefs are
being prepared by the Chambers Of
Commerce in the Indiana towns,
which show that Indiana consumers
pay from S6S to sos a car more
freight than cities an equal distance
from the mid-continental oil fields,
which lie West of the Indiana-Illinois
State line. Mr.. Aiosser. in discussing
the problem today. said that the Pc
troleum is carried over the same
roads. often on the same trains with
petroleum transported to ether cities
at a cheaper rate.

by dispatch from Paris. am cred
IDLY informed that he received 500 Of
these communications in the course of
the conference!
What could the poor man do under
such bewildering conditions? The
other European countries were per
picked and distracted. They were
anxious that Genoa should end In
state of peace. There was no doubt
about sincer1ty-the passionate sin
certify Of desire for peace throughout
Europe, but the European nations
could not help seeing that one Of the
great powers was working for a fail
ure. They had a natural anxiety not
to appear to take sides. 1t is a. mar
vel that in spite of this unfortunate
attitude adopted by the French gov
eminent that pact was signed which
has. at any rate, preserved the peace
in eastern Europe for several months.
Before the conference we had heard Of
armies being strengthened along
frontiers and movements Of troops
with a menacing intent from the Bal
tic to the Black Sea. Genoa, at least,
dispelled that cloud.
But a permanent peace has not yet
been established and the pact with
Russia will soon expire. I am. how
ever, hopeful that the spirit OF Genoa
will stand between the contending ar
mics and prevent the clash OF swords.
Reason More Sinister
All this. however, Is leading me
away from an examination of NJ

did not keep faith In the matter of
guaranteeing France against German
aggression. The offer was definitely

ope. Hence, the offer which was
made by the British government. M.
BRAND was prepared to welcome this
offer and to proceed to a calm con
sideration Of the perplexities Of the
European situation. 1t was agreed to
summon a conference at Genoa to dis
cuss the condition of European ex-
change, credit and trade. It was also
resolved that an effort should be made
to establish peace with Russia and to
bring that great country once more
inside the community of nations.
A great start was made on the path
of genuine appeasement. The Ger
man government was invited to send

TAX BILLS IMPORTANT
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-Congress
today took initial steps to carry out
the legislative program outlined yes
terday by President Harding. although
it is realized all the recommendations
cannot be enacted this session.
As a result the legislative action of
the President may be summarized as
follows:
Taxation-The House Ways and
Means Committee will ask the House
next week to sandwich between appro-
priation bills resolutions for amend
ing the Constitution to prohibit tax
exempt securities.
Anderson Bin Is Basis
Rural Credits-In both houses, the
Agriculture and Banking and Cur
rency Committees will tackle a mass
Of legislation and try to whip into
shape a bill that will satisfy the farm
bloc and the Administration. In the
House, the Anderson bill, creating a
farm credits department, with $4,000.
600 capital in each Federal reserve
bank. probably viii be the basis OF
committee work.
RaiIroads-The Presidents recon-
mendation for abolition Of the railroad
labor board and his other suggested
legislative reforms in the transporta-
ton law will be considered by the
House and Senate Interstate Com
merce Committees at meetings to be
held within a few days. If Mr.. Hard
fng's recommendations for a merger
Of the railroads into a few big sys-
tens. and for legislation to prevent
strikes are insisted upon, there can
be no railroad legislation at this ses-
sion.
Consider Immigration
Immigration - The Senate and
House immigration Committees will
meet the coming week. While imm1-
grafton is considered too large a
question for satisfactory solution in
the hustle of a short session. there
will be much discussion of IL.
Mr.. Harding's suggestion for regis
tration Of aliens would require trea-
ties and is inadvisable in the opinion
of some House leaders.
Child Labor-The House judiciary
Committee probably will present a
resolution amending the Constitution.
giving Congress power to prevent
child labor.
Prohibition-The Presidents denun-
citation of violators of the Volstead act
and the eighteenth amendment was
expected to result in new legislative
suggestions for enforcement. Lead
ers, however, said Congress was not
raIIed IN AZ this time m do auvtbfro
about prohibition. After the Presi-
dents conference with the Governors
some legislative steps may be taken.

the hand Of NJ Clemenceau against
the aggressive party which was then
and still is anxious TO commit France
to the colossal error OF anneXing ter

well that Britain has been ready at

up to a few months ago, to take upon
herself the burden Of that pact. with
