HOGUE TO ASK
CHANGEINPAY
PLAN FORCITY
Controller Would Have Every
Employe Call for His Own
Check.

City Controller Joseph L. Hogue today
announced he intends to ask department
heads to abolish the practice of permit
ting foremen to get pay checks from the
controllers office and distribute the
checks to the men on the job. He said
he hopes to start a new system whereby
all employees must come to the control
ler's office in person to get their checks.
Il am doing this because under the
present system it is so easy for a fore
man who wanted to be dishonest, to put
on the pay roll fictitious name and then
cash the check for himself, without de-
tection," said Mr.. Hogue.
Some opposition was encountered by
Mr.. Hogue when he broached the plan
to the sanitary department. This de-
partment has not been on good terms
with the rest Of the city hall since the
new administration came in.
Lucius b. Swift, member of the sanf-
tary board, told Mr.. Hogue he did not
think such precautions were necessary
with employees in the sanitary depart
ment because he thought they all were
trustworthy. Mr.. Hogue said he did not
doubt 1t. but added he thought it would
be matter of protection, both for the
board and himself, if the opportunity to
pad pay rolls were wiped out.
Mr. Swift said it would inconvenience
employees of the sanitary department to
have to come to the city hall for their
pay, and he hoped Mr.. Hogue would think
the matter over carefully before making
final decision.
Mr. Hogue will discuss the change with
the board Of park commissioners this
afternoon.

No plea Of innocence was entered nor
any attempt made to show why leniency
should be extended except on the ground
that A. n. Foley. Charlottesville attor-
ney, withdrew from the case after a
jury had been selected, leaving the de-
fense entirely in the hands Of Baker.
Baker said the withdrawal may have
prejudiced the jury against his clients
interests. Baker told the board that no
criticism was intended for the court in
permitting the withdrawal, but said he
felt 1t was an injustice to Donovan.
Governor McCray said he is not In
favor of capital punishment. but that the
law Is on the statute books and must
be enforced. He said further the Dono-
van case Is one In which he believed the
law should be allowed to take its course.
Donovan and his family, according to
the evidence in the ease, came from Ken

CLASH rs HEATED

WASHINGTON, May 1S,-Secretary of
Commerce Hoover today warned the coal
operators in his conference with them
here. against attempting to jeopardize the
public interest.
Eoorer's statement was made during a
sharp clash with G. II. Caperton of the
New River coal district of West Virginia,
who announced his refusal to permit any
committee to interfere with my bust
ness"
In opening the conference of operators
here Hoover said the Government did not
possesses the power to regulate the dis
>IosaI and price OF coal. stating that any
ction along those lines must be voluntar-
lily on the part of the operators.
Those attending the conference operate
non union mines.
The questions for discussion here are
measures to be taken to regulate distri-
button and prices, and to prevent specula-
tion and undue competition in coal, !"
Hoover said. There is nc law empower
ing the Government TO settle the Gues
tion. You were called here to cooperate
in this matter for the public good and
for the good OF the operators. The Gov
ernment will assist in every way possi-
ble." Hoover said
Il am not laying down the law"
Hoover said, as he gave the conference
what he termed rough outline of meet
ing the situation.
The coal meeting and the dinner con-
ference of President Harding with steel
and railroad men tonight and Saturday
night. respectively, are part of the Ad
ministration's campaign to reach volun.
tary agreements with key Industries to
hasten return of more prosperous busi-
ness conditions.
The coal conference was a surprise.
Harding. with Hoover, believes there
was no justification for recent increases
in coal prices, because stocks of coal
throughout the country continue large.
Private committees TO regulate the dis
tribution and prices Of coal previously
had been proposed by Hoover. This pro-
posal frs. was adopted with Caperton
casting the only dissenting vote. Later
the question was reopened TO discuss
regulation OF prices specifically.
Manifestly angry at Caperton's state
ment, Hoover declared with emphasis
that while he did not believe the Gov
ernment should extend Its arm into pri-
gate business, nevertheless. the Govern
1ment will insist on taking a hand IN
private business whenever the public In
terest Is threatened
Hoover told the operators that, whether
they liked 1t or not, the public interest
would be conserved. Something more
than committee Interference" would fol
low any attempt by private business to
conduct its affairs IN manner injurious
to the public.
Bitterness against the United Mine
Workers Of America crept out In spite
OF Hoover's wishes. S. p Hutchison and
c. E. Heller OF the Westmoreland Coal
Company, Philadelphia, attacked the
union.

GARBAGE AND
ASH SYSTEM
BREAKSDOWN
Accumulation Is So
Great, Alleys Go
Dirty.
BUCK is PASSED
Blame Does Not Rest
With City, Say
Officials.

So great has become the accumulation
of uncollected garbage and ashes in the
improved alleys of Indianapolis, due to
the breakdown of the collection system
Of the board of sanitary commissioners,
that the street cleaning department is
finding it practically impossible to clean
paved alleys, John f. Walker, superin-
tendent of street cleaning, said In spe-
cial report on the situation to Mayor
Shank today.
Ashes aud garbage have not been col
elected for as long as three weeks in
some parts Of the city. 1t is said. The
city administration proper has nothing
whatever to do with the collection Of
ashes and garbage, since this is under
the control Of the sanitary board. The
sanitary board is responsible to no au-
thority whatever, except that Its books
must be approved by the State board
Of accounts, and hence Mayor Shank is
powerless to compel the board to improve
conditions. city officials say.
BOARD is SEPARATE
FROM CITY GOVERNMENT.
Citizens generally, however, do not
know the sanitary board Is an entirely
separate body from the rest Of the city
government .and hence they call the
street cleaning department to complain
that their ashes and garbage have not
been removed, Mr.. Walker said. So nu
merous are the complaints, he said, that
the full time Of one man at the street
cleaning barns in Shelby street is re-
quired TO answer the telephone.
John f.. Stucky chief clerk at the
barns, has been handling most of the
misdirected complaints. He said he IS

the second Is one of the sanitary depart
ment Offices
Mayor Shank and his subordinates an
nounced some time ago they would try
to get tho next Legislature to pass a law
putting the sanitary board directly under
control of the mayor. Tne board now
consists of the city engineer a member
appointed on nomination of the State
board of health and third appointed on
nomination of the other two. The mayor
desires all three appointments to be In
his hands.
WALKER FEARS CONDITIONS
DETRIMENTAL TO HEALTH.
Walkers letter said he feared the ac-
cumulation of ashes and garbage would
be detrimental to public nealth.
The letter IS as follows:
For the past month we have had sew
eral hundred complaints about garbage.
ashes and condition of alleys from citi-
zens of every section of the city Tele-
phone complaints have been so numerous

Ing this morning alone ten paid the fee.

last two weeks, the controller announced.
