Establishment OF an air mail
route through indianapolis has
been handicapped in the past"
Glover said. THE department adj
vertised twice, but received no bids.
Nov we have assurance that at
least one bid for the contract will
be submitted.
THE Cincinnati Chicago line will
leave Indianapolis late in the AFTER
noon, reaching Chicago in time TO
hook up with the east bound ships,
and arriving in New York by 5 a. M,
in time for the New York clearance.
This will be Of great advantage to
indianapolis banks and business
houses"
Proud Of Air Service
The United States postoflce de-
partment has nothing to be
ashamed Of. but rather something
to be proud Of, in the development
Of the air mail service, Glover told
Kiwanians.
I'm the past fiscal year the air
mail service completed AZ 900 round
trips, few $4,000 miles, carried
1,0ll,000 pounds Of mali, lost 327
pounds in burning plane, and had
four fatalities" Glover said.
Contractors alone were paid
Sl,563,000, Contract lines carried
468,000 pounds of mail.
New Expresses Hope
Postmaster General Harry s. New
expressed the hope that difficulties
in the way of an airmail line for
Indianapolis heretofore would be
overcome.
He said that bids have been too
high to accept and rail facilities for
mail have been so excellent that
not enough large mailers havc
evinced interest in the air routes to
insure sufficient support.

FIGHT HOODED ORDER
Georgia and Alabama Want
Laws Stiffened.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
ATLANTA, Ga, July 20.-Legisla-
lures of two southern States are
considering drastic legislation de-
signed to curb the activities of
hooded bands that recently have
terrorized parts of Georgia, Ala
bama and Florida.
A bill before the Georgia assembly
provides for a ten to twenty-year
prison term for any member of a
masked band for fogging. AS a
further precaution, it makes illegal
the wearing of masks except in
lodge rooms, at public carnivals,
fairs and festivals.
An unofficial poll of Georgia legis-
lators indicated the bill would find
strong support.
At the same time, the Alabama

WATSON TALKS
LOYALTY; new
LAUDs CROWD
Republican Chiefs Deliver
Formal 0ratory for
PostmaSters.
DUVALL, JACKSON THERE
Senator Cries for Party Al
IegianCe in Joe Cannon
Style.

Two distinguished Indianians
prominent in National affairs, spoke
before the Tri-State Postmasters
Association today at the Claypeol.
One, Harry S. New, postmaster
general of the United States, stayed
away from politics in his address.
The other, James E. Watson, sem
ior Senator from Indiana, declared
political party allegiance is one OF
the greatest things to be desired
from a successful candidate.
New confined his talk to COM
mendation of the postmasters.
II want you to know" he said
that I appreciate your work.
believe that no public in the world
is better served with its mails than
is the populace of this country.
you're my workers and you can
bet that I'll stand up for my own.
You can bank on my cooperation. -
AS Watson, in his oratorical man
ner, glided into his speech, one re-
membered the fiery manner in
which "Uncle Joe" Cannon used to
laud the Republican party.
Cannon was Republican first,
last and always"
Old-Time Spirit
Jim Watson Is the same thing.
He told the postmasters so today in
as few words as can be used to ex-
press it.
WED be better off If we went
back to some of the old political
standards on which this nation is
built" Watson said. There's too
much of this failure to owe any
allegiance to your party"
II don't care whether you're a
Democrat or Republican, stand up
to what your party believes" "---
Watson took a rap at the primary
system.
II never did express any sympathy
for the primary system" he added.
Eye on Appcintees
Revealing that he had the privi-
lege" of appointing five postmasters
in this State, the senior Senator
said that he is proud Of the work
each man has done.
Some people don't know it," he
said, "but every so often I get a re-
port or what my appointees are do
ing. I'm more than satisfied with
the work of these postmasters."
Watson complained of the vari-
Gus organized ninorities."
There are at least fifty of these
organized minorities" in Washing
ton now," he said.
Ends With Same Song
But the outstanding theme OF
WatSons talk was this:
If you're elected as a Republican
be Republican; if you're elected as
a Democratic, be a Democrat; but
don't forget the ideals for which
your party stands.
Mayor Duvall, Governor Jackson
and Postmaster Robert H. Brown
welcomed the postmasters. The Tri-
State association is comprised OF
postmasters from Indiana, Ohio and
Kentucky.
Senator Arthur r. Robinson
scheduled to appear this morning
was unavoidably detained and will
speak later.
William G. Deming, president OF
the u. S. civil service commission
outlined the progress of the posta
service this afternoon.
