FILE HOLMES REPLY
Immediate Decision Asked
in Mayor Fight.

Reply brief in the contest of Ira
M. Holmes for the office of mayor
was filed today by him with the
Supreme Court clerk, together with
petition for an immediate decision
of the Supreme Court on his appeal.
Holmes is appealing from the in
junction of Judge Joseph M. Miner,
in Superior Court, granted on pc
tition of Claude E. Negley, presi-
dent of the city council, then act
ing as mayor pro tenn, from inter-
fering with the discharge of the lat
ters duties. In his decision, Judge
Miner held that Holmes, who
claimed the Office by virtue of ap-
pointment by Mrs. John L. Duvall,
who succeeded her huband, had mo
color of title" to the Office of mayor.
He bases his appeal reply brief on
the contention that Negley admits
that Holmes was in possession of the
the Office of mayor and that they
took an improper method of seek
ing relief.
Holmes appeal is one of the three
suits pending in the Supreme Court
for the Office Of mayor of Indian
apolis. Appeals have been taken
there by Joseph L. Hogue and by
former Mayor John L. Duvall.

BEFORE court
Monopoly on Tube Charged
to Corporation.
SO. 5 Head-see Puzzle-
BY LEO r. SACK

WASHINGTON. Dec. 90 The
Radio Corporation of America, now
under investigation by the Federal
Trade Commission, faces an inquiry
by the Federal courts.
Independent radio manufacturers
will be heard in the United States
Court at Wilmington Thursday on
their petition seeking an injunction
against the corporation from en-
forcing the tube clause in its license
contract.
The suit is brought by a group, OF
tube manufacturers, affiliated with
the Radio Protective Association, in
dependent manufacturers organized
to shake the corporations grip on
the manufacture Of receiving sets.
Under its contract with manufac-
turers who use their patents, the
Radio Corporation requires these
concerns to buy from it all of the
tubes needed "initially to actuate
the sets these companies manufac-
ture.
Independent manufacturers claim
this has destroyed much of their
business and is in violation of the
Sherman and the Clayton antitrust
laws. They claim the corporation is
seeking monopoly.

Vandagrifft Motion Taken
Under Amusement.

Motion to quash an indictment
against Virgil Vandagrifft, former
works board president, charging vio-
lation of the Indiana Securities act
was taken under advisernent by Spe-
cial Criminal Judge Alonzo Blair,
Shelbyville, Monday afternoon.
Arguments by attorneys were heard.
The court did not announce the date
Of ruling.
Vandagrifft was indicted with F.
S. WellSmere and D. L. Taylor, who
is a fugitive, for operating an cleo
trio oil well rejuventor company
which was alleged not to have been
incorporated in Indiana.
Ira M. Holmes and Silas G. Kivett,

ment on the grounds it charges sale
OF unregistered security, and that the
securities act does not specify Sc
curities for sale should be registered.
Prosecutor William H. Remy, Spe-
cial Prosecutor Ensley w. johnson
and Herman Gray, assistant Secre-
tary of State, argued that the in
dictment is valid.

FAIL TO BLOCK
PLAN TO unite
BUSES, CARS
Civic Club Charges Move Is
Blind for Increased
Fare Plea.

Public Service G ommissio er
Frank T. Singleton today overruled
motion of the Federation of Civic
Clubs attorney to dismiss the street
car and bus company unification
petition on the grounds that it is
subterfuge to get increased fare.
Edward o. Snethen, federation at
torney, charged the Indianapolis
Street Railway Company was seek
ing to do indirectly what it could
not do directly" in seeking to COM
bine the transportation systems.
Singleton pointed out the unifica-
ton is the fundamental issue rather
than rates.
Chief Counsel Dave Watson of the
railway company explained the util-
ity desires to provide a substantial
transportation system coordinating
buses and street cars to the best
interests of the public.
Wants to Stop Feeders

Watson declared it is desired to
eliminate the profitable feeder
plan.
G. D. Yaeger, 826 Pythian Bldg,
represented the Washington Town
ship Civic Association and George o.
Lehman appeared on behalf of
patrons. Mrs. William M. Hedrick,
parent-teachers' board civic chair
man, and about dozen others pro-
tested the abandonment of the Cen
trail and College feeder lines. Cor
poration Counsel John w. Hoffman
appeared on behalf Of the city.
The car company proposes to ex-
tend the Peoples Motor Coach Com
pany Central Ave. route, replacing
the feeder routes.
Two cent transfers would con-
tinue from BUSES to street cars, and
BUSES to other bus lines, but per-
sons transferring from treet cars to
buses would be required to pay the
regular 2-cent transfer fee and a
Accent cash equalization" charge
or 3s4 cents charge il tokens were
purchased. The plan is used on all
through bus routes.

Snethen commended the company
sought 10-cent fare instead of the
present ga cent fee on feeder buses,
Several patrons who favored the
unification plan were questioned by
the attorneys protesting.
Superintendent James P. Tretton

indicated by Committee

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Four
United States Senators alleged by
the Hearst newspapers to have been
slated in official" orders to receive
$1,215,0O0 from the Mexican gov
eminent have been given a complete
vindication by members Of the spe-
cial committee which investigated
the charges.
In the absence Of Senator David
A. Reed of Pennsylvania, chairman,
who went duck hunting without sub
hitting a report to the Senate. Sen
ators Robinson of Arkansas and
Bruce of Maryland, Democrats, and
Johnson of California and Jones of
Washington, Republicans, in brief
speeches declared there wasn't a
scintilla of truth in the Hearst re-
port.
Senators also heard a copy of the
open letter of Senator George w.
Norris of Nebraska, terming Hearst
a man without honor and his news
papers the "sewer system of Ameri-
can journalism" read into the Con-
gressional record.
The evidence shows, Senator
Robinson of Arkansas declared, that
none Of the Senators involved "has
received one dollar or had been
rendered one cent"
"All concerned in finding the truth
comedies that these Senators stand
interrupted and incorruptible. Not
only does the testimony show this
fact conclusively, but it also demon
strates that not one of them ever
has been approached in my matter
in connection with improper con-
sheraton respecting Mexican af-
fairs"
Continuing, the Democratic leader
told the Senate: ut is pity-Great
God, 1t is a crying pity-that the
the great power Of the Hearst news
papers has not been employed to
the publication of public office
where corruption is known to exist.
To emphasize Senator Robinson's
report, Senator Hiram Johnson de-
clared: by every witness, from
every standpoint, it has been DEM
onstrated beyond doubt that there
never was the slightest justification,
either directly or indirectly, ex-
pressedly or implicitly, for suggest
ing the names of any one of the
Senators who ultimately was named
in the various documents produced.
There never was, in my opinion,
the slightest justification for print
ing any document, with names de-
leted or otherwise, which might
have reflected upon any Senator OF
the United States"
