LENIN, TROTSKI
ARE PRAISED
BY GOODRICH
Former Governor Says Russ
Leaders Men of Honesty
and Integrity.

"The heads Of the bolshevist govern
integrity and the most maligned char
acters in modern history. James p. Good
rich, former Governor Of Indiana, told
members of the Columbia Club at a
luncheon today. Mr.. Goodrich recently
returned from Russia, where he acted as
a representative Of Herbert Hoover, sec
rotary Of Commerce.
The leaders Of the Russian government
have come to realize that there can be
no immediate transition to communism
Mr. Goodrich said, and have gone back
to q capitalistic form of government.
Mr.. Goodrich described nsome detail
the conditions under the attempted com
munistic system. He said the peasants
were expected to grow the crops and turn
all they did not need for themselves over
to the government. In exchange they
were to receive food, clothing, transpor-
tati0n, the services Of physicians and all
other necessities free of charge. At the
same time the workers, he said, were
expected to labor in the factories In ex-
change 70 rtheir food and other necessi-
ties There was to be no such thing as
money.
This would have worked, Mr.. Good
rich said, # there had been any IN
celtive TO production, Tut as soon as the
system was put into effect production
was greatly reduced, bringing about its
failure,
Mr.. Goodrich quoted Lenin and Trot-
sky at length on the recent change in
the system Of the Government. going
back to the capitalistlc idea OF barter
and sale. He said they have come to a
realization that communism can not be
successful, at least at this time.

YOUTH, IL, ENDS
HIS OWN LIFE
Indiana HarbOr Boy, III,
DespOndent on Way to
Hospital.

Dependency, believed to be due to his
physical condition, caused James Do
mokos. IS. to shoot and XIII himself to-
day at the home Of Guido Morresi, 500
Kenwood avenue.
The boy and his mother, Elizabeth
Domokos, came here yesterday from In
diana Harbor and the youth was to be
sent 10 a hospital for treatment for
epilepsy from which he suffered.
He was lying in bed and his mother
was standing by a dresser comhing her
hair when he fired a shot iBto his right
temple from SO calibre revolver. Death
was instantaneous.
The mother. a little Hungarian woman.
sat In a big rocking chair In the Ken
wood avenue home and sobbed the tra gle
story OF her life. She came to this
country with her husband, Joe Demokos
and their son James, to make their
home in Indiana Harbor, and were
happy she said Joe longec for the old
home. He loved the United States. but
he wished to visit his old home IN
Uunzaria.
He went back and had been there
only two weeks when the World War
started. He was unable to leave the
country and was called to the colors. In
spite Of his eight years residence In
the United States Demokos was forced
to obey. Six weeks later he was listed
among "the fallen" Mrs Demokos
could not recall the name Of the battle.
They had Tut the one child, James. aud
he was afflicted with epilepsy The
mother spent money and tried In every
way to have her sons aflIction cured.
Finally, she planned that he should be
taken to the village for EpIeptics near
Newcastle, and they came to indianapolis
to obtain the necessary papers.
James was Respondent. Not only be
cause Of his Illness. but also because he
probably would BE separated from his
mother. He had threatened suicide be
fore. having asked for rope, IL is said.
But the threat never was considered Sc
riously Today he slipped from his room
to that of Mr. Morresi and took re-
volver from under the pillow and then
returned to his own room on the first
floor, where he fired the shot.
Mrs. Domokos said her son had never
suffered from epilepsy until about two
years ago when he was struck by train
and injured.

TO
GIVE NO HEED
TO RESIDENCE
Hogue to Await City Legal De-
partment's Word in Pay
ing Employees.

1t makes no difference If the residence
Of their employees is indianapolis or Osh-
kosh, the board of sanitary commission
ers can go right on authorizing payment
Of their salaries, according to an opinion
given the board today By Baker K
Daniels, its attorneys.
President Jay A. Craven referred the
matter to the attorneys after City Con-
troller Joseph L. Hogue had announced
he will withhold payment of salary to
any city employee residing outside the city
limits. Truly Nolen, superintendent Of
gasbage and ash collection and disposal
for the sanitary board at a salary Of
$500, is one Of several city employees
who do not reside in indianapolis, Mr..
HoGue said.
The boards attorneys, according 10
President Craven, ruled that in their
opinion the sanitary district law Of 1917
gave the board the power to hire men for
necessary work without limiting their
residence
when informed Of this Mr.. Hogue said
he Will stick to his decision until he is
advised TO change 1t by the city legal de-
partment. He said he would refer the
matter to Corporation Counsel Taylor E.
Groninger at once. He pointed out that
his stand relates to other city employees
well as to those OF the sanitary
board
Mr.. Hogue said that sweeping changes
should be made IN the manner of pay
ment Of salaries to many city employees.
lie Is particularly opposed to the pay
ment Of Offices out Of several different
funds. For instance, he said, Mr. Nolen
ents SO per week out Of three different
funds. The salary schedule throughout
the administration should be revised so
each omploye would get one check out
Of one fund.
