Youth, II, Held in Jail,
Tells of His ESCa-
padeS.

LIQUOR and the desire for
autos led to the downfall OF
III a youth, H. held today under
$4,000 bond in Marion County jail
on grand jury indictments charging
him with robbery, auto banditry and
petit larceny, while nursing a bullet
wound in his leg received Sunday
when he was shot by a motorist, who
found the youth in his auto.
He is Melvin Butler, haywood.
Ind. one of n family of eight, and
member of the red sweater" bandit
gang which perpetrated a series of
hold-ups and auto thefts last fall.

ing his auto, stolen from 100 E.

to Jail from the city hospital, where
he had been while recovering from
the bullet wound.
Say man, you don't know what
you're doing when you get q load
Of that liquor in you" Butler said
telling of his escapades.
IT stole the liquor from a boot
logger on the east side and now
look at the jam that its got me
into.

pened to me while the police were
looking for me was when a traffic

ing.
Gee. but that was such a good
looking job that l could not resist
stealing it," Butler said. telling of
how he stole the auto that led to his

Well. I guess I'm lucky at that,
because just a week before I was ar
rested a cop shot at me several times

Lockerbie SITS, while I was driving a
truck"
Butler had been working in the
city for an express company and had
been using the name of Leo Butler,

SENATOR URGES
PUBLIC retain
MUSCLE SHOALS
Representative of Huge
Combine Will Bid for
Power Plant.
Times Wdshin0ton Bureau.
1929 Mem York 4 rrnHP.

WASHINGTON, Feb. .22.-Intro-
ducing Thomas w. Martin, power
king of the South.
Any one VINO bankers to clean up
a private fortune with the $780,
100000 aforementioned power
plant at Muscle Shoals, Ala, has
him to outbid.
Martha has informed the civilian
Muscle Shoals commission that he
stands prepared to bid for a lease
on the project whenever Congress
is ready to talk real business. He
will enter negotiations. backed by
one of the three largest power COM
bines in America, the Southeastern
Light and Power Company. Martin
is president.
The Southeastern Company owns
the Georgia Railway and Power
Company and the Alabama Power
Company. It's holdings stretch into
Florida and Mississippi.
According to authenticated report
the combine plans eventually to
take over the Southern Power and
the Tennessee Power companies. IT.
will then control electric power IN
North Carolina, South Carolina
Tennessee, Alabama and parts OF
Florida and Mississippi.
And that is only part Of the story
Of how power control in America is
rapidly falling into the hands Of
one small group Of men.
Senator Norris of Nebraska, on
the Senate floor, Dec. II, 1924, de-
clared, "Ninety-nine times out Of a
hundred. when we trace down own
ers Of power companies. we find we
have reached the General Electric
Co."
Norris cited that various officials
Of the Alabama Power Company
then bidding on Muscle Shoals. were
directors in the Electric Bond and
Share Company. Norris asserted
the latter company was owned by
the General Electric Company.
Thirteen days after Norris ex-
posture, the General Electric Com
pany sold it's entire interest in the
company.
The Senate, on Feb. 9. 1925,
ordered the Federal Trade Commits
sion to investigate the extent Of
the G. z. monopolizaion in the
power field. A year has passed and
the commission is still investigating,
with little hope Of the Senate receiv-
ing any information before it must
again consider the fate of Muscle
Shoals.
Says Senator Norris: THE only
way for the people Of America to
protect themselves Is to retain con
troll Of Muscle Shoals and operate it
themselves.

dressing the Hammond Chamber of

you can make more money &C.

That is Lake County's doctrine.
Florida has made no noticeable in
roads on the population here. Lake
County's boom" is Just as at
tractive to northern Indiana and
Chicago capital.
Prof. Lionel D. Edie, Indiana Uni

director, foresees unlimited growth
for the district.
Describing the met of steel

said the region is two and one

J. Paule Goode, University of Chi
Cago industrial research expert, de-
clared here in an address.
Optimism Is so contagious that
newspapers and real estate agents
credited his address alone with boost
ing real estate values slightly.
Operator P. C. Primus Of the In
diana Hotel asserted that the sale of
ESQ acres In Hammond to the Rox
ana Petroleum Company as a site for
a $35, 100000 refinery doomed the
value of his hotel property $4,000
in one day.
He said real estate value has
1eaped upward tremendously since he
came to the city. A f1fty-foot- front
business site on Holman St, which
Re said he could have purchased for
$4,000 five years ago, is priced at
$4,000, and he expects the owners
to raise the price any day.

according to Frank R. Martin, of

president.
Martin said within the last three

lis capital has been invested in

An eminent French psycholo-
gist wants to put joy and color
into life. He says that the Nation
should provide pleasures for us
citizens. He insists that gaiety IS
a wonderful stimulant for both
health and sanity. If men and
women are kept happy they Will
be healthy. Worry and ingrow-
ing pessimism open the pores Tor
the admission of the ills that flesh
is heir to. He recalls that when
the plague was ravaging Rome IN
the fourth century the Govern
ment brought in bands OF Etrus-
can singers, comedians and enter
tainers. They gave performances
on the streets and their funny
faces and jocund minstrelsy kept
the populace in hearty laughter.
They forgot their troubles and the
plague subsided. The psycholo-
gist says that dynamic gaiety can
be built up. 1t must be admitted
that in America we are doing fair
ly we'll in this respect.

URBAN RESIDENCE.

URBAN RESIDENCE.
BY no means the least pronliss7
ing among many tendencies in the
direction of improving the condi-
tions of those whose business or
employment compels them to
spend the hours of the working
day in office, mill, store or facto-
ry, is that which is more gener.
ally making it possible for the
wage earners and their families to
reside beyond the borders OF crow
ded districts. Independence in
the matter of transportation to
and from work has made feasible
and profitable the develOpmen mt,
sometimes miles from the city
limits, of attractive residential
areas in sections where there Is
absolute freedom from the smoke
and noises, as well as from worse
conditions which cannot be escap-
ed in the less exclusive urban sec
tions.
This movement countryward, 1t
is observed, has not been confin-
ed entirely to the workers employ
ed in the cities. There is notice
able in many sections of an in
creasing tendency to follow the
migration of wage earners with a
transfer of large industrial plants
to sites where light and air are
more plentiful and upon which the
burden of taxes is lighter. This
latter movement is probably only
in its infancy. The possibilities
which it offers are only now be-
ing more fully realized. The new
arrangement does not imply a
budding together upon the new
location of factories and homes.
The workers retain their new
freedom of choice, and may build
their houses a dozen or score of
miles from the place of their en-
ployment.
This more or less revolutionary
change which promises a happy
release from former economic and
social bondage has been made
possible, of course, b. the devel-
opment of cheap and dependable
motorized transportation. The
wage Garner with low-price used
car is Independent of trolley or
train. Where he was once obliged
to reside within walking distance
of his work, he can now go to and
fro at will, assuring to his family
what, formerly, would have been
regarded as a continuing holiday
IN the country.
The proprietor and employer is
equally independent. The motor
truck offers a dependable substi-
tute for the freight car in the
quick and inexpensive movement
of raw materials and finished pro-
ducts. So what is actually being
accomplished, as yet in a small
way, but with the promise of be-
coming more general and wide
spread, is a decentralization of in
dustry and population, with resi-
Dental advantages to be found in
cities like Pleasantville, where
living costs are lowered and
health rate is high.
