The facts in the case, SO far as
one OF the men is concerned, were
simple. Sipe, easy-going, friendly,
lacking the quality to say mo" to
a friend, found himself, by March,
1923. according to official figures,
facing a shortage OF SAB. 1854 APP
parently he himself profited not the
least by his defalcation. Political,
personal and business friends came
to him for loans, and in order to ac-
commodate them he delved into pub
lie funds entrusted to his keeping.
He was said to be an easy mark"
for insurance agents and stock
statesmen.
When the crash came in March,
1922. he faced the music without a
word of defense. He frankly admit
ted his guilt, was taken to Jail, and
not only made no effort to obtain
bail, but actually refused offers of
friends to obtain it for him. He was
indicted by the Marion County
grand jury on April Is, 1922, for
embezzlement and conspiracy, plead
ed guilty and was sentenced to two
to fourteen years at Indiana State
prison by Judge James A. Collins in

"A factor of interest entering into
the city manager plan will be the
constant and personal attention
given to city business. Indianapolis
has great future. and it would be
exceedingly unfortunate to defeat
our largest civic success"
Bishop Leete Agrees
Detriment of political tinkering
with vital city planning was pointed
out.
From the standpoint OF best bust
ness administration and fixing Of
governmental responsibility, the
city manager system presents to any
city capable Of self-goyernment the
best opportunity to manage it's own
affairs" said Bishop Frederick D..
Leete, Indiana Area of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church.
''It is the only business-like and
satisfactory way to handle city
affairs. The commission plan is
open to most of the objections Of
the present system"
The Rev. John B. Gardner, mis-
sionary superintendent OF Indiana
Synod OF the Evangelical Lutheran
Church. said he heartily favored the
city manager proposal.
In Other Fields
IT do not believe In partisan To-
cal government" he said. Honest
and good business ability should be
the basis for selecting men to handle
municipal affairs. When we want a
man for a task in other fields OF ac-
tivity we do not select him because
he is member Of the same organi-
zation we are"
"Cities should be run on the same
basis as big business" said Bishop

SPIES IN RANKS OF UNION MINERS
Kennedy Tells of Exciting Times
 Two Years Ago

Atlantic City, ". J., July IS Fe-- How the last attempt of anthracite miners to win the long contested check off from the mine owners In 1923 produced a union heroine from an unlocked for quarter was re- vealed for the first time today by Thomas Kennedy, miners interna- tional secretary-treasurer.
 Mir. Kennedy was president of dis trict : during the scale controversy of two years ago. The 'check-off, " by which a mine paymaster would be required 10 deduct union dues from pay envelopes was then as dis puted an issue as it promises 10 be- come now. At the height of the controversy Mir. Kennedy said he received an anonymous letter in- forming him that paid spies and agitators were being maintained in the Panther Creek section to block the "check-off by city detective agency.
 Investigation confirmed the truth of the tip, Mir Kennedy said,
 Along came other letters, euppy- ing finally names and places, ac- cording to Mir. Kennedy, who said he was thus enabled to locate and identify the alleged agents, and take measures 10 persuade them to leave the district"
 One of the agents, he said, turned out 10 be president of q Panther Creek focal" Receiving hint of his exposure, the man was able to get out his back door in time 10 escape Kennedy's men com ing in the front He returned for his trunk three days later, guarded by three policemen.
 The letter box number on the en- velope, and Mir Kcnnedy's inform ant turned out to be an attractive girl employed in the detective agency. Her father and brothers were members of a union in the middle west.
 By the time however, district ' officials communicated with the girl she was looking for another job. As soon as she had collected enough information to foil what she felt 10 be anti-union activity, Mir. Kennedy said, she had quit the old one.
 The girl had come east prepara- tory 10 working her way through college was learned. To show their appreciation the unions of district 2 voted several hundred dollars 10 her college fund; enough. in fact, to enable her to enter the institution of her dreams In New York city. This fall she will enter her junior year, Mir Kennedy said The fnan- cial reward which she earned from the miners made it possible for her 10 continue college without dropping out.
