Republicans Think
Smith Is Opponent;
See Dry Issue Out

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27 (F.P.).-
Senator Jim Reed, of Missouri,
Democratic presidential aspirant and
one Of the most bitter-tongued foes of
prohibition, has tired of the wet-dry
issue as material for a national cam
paign. He has declared in a press
interview that the Democratic party
ought not to permit itself to be split
over this issue in the 1928 convention.
He sees mo reason why the Demo-
Gratis should make it paramount"
BY this declaration Reed places
himself in the same class with Sena-
tor Joe Robinson, of Arkansas, an
other hopeful candidate, who insists
that the Democratic party must ig-
more the wet-dry fight next year and
center its fire on the protective tariff
and Republican bureaucracy. The
Robinson-Reed strategy is thought to
be based on the assumption that Al
Smith is the only Democratic candi-
date who can benefit by a "wringing
wet" attitude. Western Democrats
will discuss the high cost Of living
ard the gradual loss Of states rights.
Republican politicians in Washing
ton now look upon the Democratic
race as virtually decided in favor of

chill of the concrete.
In some of the departments, like
automatics and other machines, where
oil is required for cutting metal, the
odor is very stagnant. The oil
should be changed ever SO often, but
they usually keep on adding more
without changing the old, so the air
of the room becomes foul. Going
thru those departments the stencil

wonder how those working within
can stand it.
Slavery For Small Pay.
Another plant. of this company
producing government radios, is To-
Gated, in the Chicopee Falls suburb
of Springfield. The workers there
are even worse exploited. Taking the
advantage of the unemployment in
Springfield, which is, estimated at
about 10000, they get lot of CHEAP
labor.
The workers in the Westinghouse
plants are forced to work overtime
for straight pay. Those working or

There is no union among the work

Lots of Money for War
And Tax Reduction but
Little for Child Bureau

WASHINGTON, (FP) Sept. 2S.-
Miss Grace Abbott, chief of the
Children's Bureau in the U. S. De-
partment Of Labor, warns the coun-
try that the administration of the in
fancy and maternity act will be made
impossible unless Comptroller Cen
eral McCarl shall quickly reverse his
ruling which has held up payment of
$4,000 of federal child welfare pay
ments to Montana, Louisiana and
Tennessee. McCarl has suspended &C
ton while considering a new ruling
after first upholding the decision of a
subordinate that the money could be
taken for payment of debts Of these
states to the federal treasury.
The state Of Montana has prepared
a protest against the ruling, on the
ground that money allotted for
maternity and infancy work cannot be
seized as an offset for any other debt
owed the United States. At the same
time the Department of Labor
through its acting solicitor, has pro-
tested that McCarl violated the law
Yet McCarl, as comptroller of all
federal expenditures, remains sole
judge Of his own acts until Congress
shall reduce his authority.
Miss Abbott points out that the
federal share Of state highway funds
can likewise be seized if this ruling
stands.

Given Long Terms

French Imperialism in the Chinese
Revolution.
Marty, when thrown into Jail, was
deprived of all ordinary rights ac-
corded to political prisoners and
placed among the common criminals
until the united and furious action
of the French workers forced the
reactionary government to restore
him his political prisoners rights.
Marty bacame famous as the leader
of the Black Sea mutiny when, as
petty-officer on a French battleship
in the Black Sea fleet he led re-
fusal by the French seamen to bonn
bard defenseless Russian towns.
Flags Government From Dock.
Jacques Duclos, another of the
condemned Communists, received his
sentence with a broad smile. The
charges against him were practically
identical with those concocted against
Marty. AS the pompous French
court brought in its verdict, Duclos
stepped forward and, in a ringing
voice, assailed the corrupt French
class judges and judicial system.
Using his condemnation as an object
lesson. with which to drive home to
the French workers the facts of their
oppression, and addressing himself
to the French workingclass from.
the rostrum where his sentence of
imprisonment had Just been handed
down, Duelos called upon the French
workers to defend themselves against
the crimes of capitalism and urged
the French soldiers and sailors to
refuse to lend their aid to the inn
perialists who are planning a new
war and are threatening the Soviet
Union. His clear, courageous adj
dress spoken on such an occasion,
electrified the court and profound
silence followed the final words of
his indictment.
Comrades Cachin, Doriot, Semard,
Thorez, Raynaud and many others
are still being held in the Paris jails.
Twenty-one workers have been sem
fenced to total of 359 months i'm
prisonment, six comrades in the So
called Espionage case" to 1876
months, nine sailors to 485 months,
nine soldiers to 618 months, and
twelve reservists to 1876 months in the
course of the latest offensive of the
terrified French bourgeoisie against
the workers. The sentences quoted
do not include the enormous total of
fines imposed. The vicious Poincare-
Brian-Painleve government, which
represents the big financiers, is de-
termined to crush the French work
ingclass by any possible means, and
it is believed that the sentences of
Marty and his comrades merely rep
resent the first wave of official ter
rorism.

TF you haven't a little Ca
nary in your home, you'll
be ashamed to show your
face at the bridge club before
long.
For, at the present rate, there
soon will be few homes without a
little songster, according to Rich
ard Ward of Wards Pet Shop,
Ohio and Pennsylvania SITS.
From 100 to $50 canaries a week
are imported into indianapolis
from Germany. They are part of
the lot which, just now, is coming
to the United States from Ger
many at the rate of 10000 a week.
It's hard to determine whether
a sudden affection for the feath-
cred songsters or the attractive
cages they come in has caused the
keeping of canaries to become so
fashionable in indianapolis.
Certainly, the fanciers say, the
elaborate affairs the little yellow
fellows trill about in these days
add a note of beauty to any living
or dining room.

ing and training the birds.
Imagine yourself handling a
canary's young-they have to be
fed exclusively upon hard boiled
eggs for several weeks.
Your true German bird lover,
however, raised canaries with
pleasure. He must. After several
months of anxious watchfulress
he can market each bird for the
expert trade for about 81.
It is difficult to keep canaries
through the mountain winter, so
the Germans part with their
focks before Nov. 1.
The raising of birds is merely
a sideline with these Germans. If
they are wealthy, they maintain
large birdrooms with high ceilings
where the birds are allowed their
freedom. If they are peasants,
they usually make a breeding room
out of the attic, or some other
room of the house where the birds
will be undiSturbed.
r. 1ERMAN fanciers make song
a speciality. One family will
III gather fifty birds or more
from the neighborhood and con-
Quota singing school. The birds
learn to sing by imitation, and
some times an expert roller is
placed in the room to train the
potential young coloraturas.

EXPECT ARREST
IN GIRLS DEATH
Confessed Slayer Insists No
One Else Is Involved.

By United Press
WOODBURY., N. j., Oct. 5.-An-
other arrest was expected today in
connection with the murder Of Rose
Sarlo, II, who was slain early Sun
day morning.
After questioning George YaWow,
confessed slayer, for four hours
Tuesday, Sheriff John B. Stratton
dispatched several state troopers
under Jacob K. Tryson, deputy
sheriff, on a hunt, presumably to
bring in a man for examination.
Yarrow has maintained no one
else was connected with the crime,
but officials continued to question
him because of the insistence of
Blanche Sweeten that another man
besides Yarrow was standing beside
the latter's automobile just before
he drove off with Miss Sarlo.
Police investigating the assertion
Of Yarrow's MOTHER n-law, Mrs.
Sylvia Michaels, that Yarrow killed
his wife, believe that the missing
woman still is alive. A young wom-
an in Atlantic City Tuesday said
she had seen Mrs. Yarrow there
within two weeks.
The funeral of Miss Sarlo was to
be held today from st. Patrick's
Roman Catholic Church, where she
has taught a catechism class of for
ty children.

LAY PHONE CABLES
Increased Service Will Be
Provided by Extensions.

Largely increased telephone serv-
ice will be provided for residents of
Forrest Manor and st. Andrews ad-
ditions by new underground cable
lines being laid by the Indiana Bell
Telephone Company.
-Four and one-half miles of under
ground cable are being laid from
Massachusetts, Ave. and Tenth ST.,
north and east. This will provide
telephone service for many ap-
plicants in that section who hereto
fore have been unable to obtain
service. The addition could &C
commodate $500 phones if necessary.
Another cable line, five and one
half miles in length, is being laid
underground along the National Rd.
between Roena st. and Bridgeport.
This will mean that the Terre
Haute to Dayton cable will be in
underground conduit for five miles
each side of Indianapolis, and that
telephone service will be extended
west of the city.
The two projects will cost approx
mately 100000.

made out pretty well in
years gone by as a salesman of
glass diamonds.
But after getting caught a
couple or three times, he decided
to abandon such ways Of living
and became an honest bartender
at Christie st. speak-easy.
Then, one day, a well-dressed
man dropped into John Ecker's
shoe shop at Hicksville, Long
Island. He was much taken with
Hicksville and was going to buy
home there and add his dignity
to its citizenship while he sent his
oldest daughter to college.

When a finished artist Is not
available among the canaries, the
Germans use a bird organ. Eighty
per cent of the birds trained by
these organs become expert roller
canaries. The organs cost from So
to $40 each, but they do not last
in the American climate and soon
become out of order.
-1ANY times the trainers add
INA to the repertoire of the
w birds by use of flutes,
triangles, pianos, organs, and other
musical instruments, the flute b ..
ing the instrument best adapted
to the birds voice. Birds with
harsh, sharp, choppy voices i'm
mediately are removed from the
group.
American-bred canaries, with
their unframed voices, compare
very poorly with those which have
received their training abroad
Roller canar1eS have the artistic
temperament, and often are
peevish and \fretful. They are
polyganous, but show very en-
gaging disposition during court
ship. Most Americans choose their
birds for its pure yellow coloring
rather than for its trained voice.
Dealers still are struggling to teach
the public that fine feathers do
not make fine birds"

and take the diamonds as security.
John did. But his friends never
came back to Hicksville.
~lHE village jeweler looked at
Il the diamonds, and found
IL them plate glass, not long
out of Pittsburgh.
So John called on the district
attorney, who called on the New
York police; and they went to
their card index of diamond
switchers, "box men" and the like.
"It's little Make" pronounced
the detectives. For Make it was
serious business. With three con-
victions behind him, a fourth
meant life Imprisonment under
New York's Baumes law.
Little Make protested innocence.

funny glass that fit in his eye and
many walls of colored liquids.
Look good" said he scanning
the diamonds. 'I'll give them the
acid test"
He poured a green fluid which
hight have been creme de menthe
over enc diamond at a time.
"That," he said, sis bombastic
acid. 1t will dissolve anything but
a diamond. If these stones don't
dissolve, they are diamonds"
The stones didn't dissolve.
SO there was much bargaining.
The expert appraised them at
$4,000 and finally the stranger
agreed to buy them for $4,000 if
Jonn Ecker would loan him $4,000

HOPES RAISED
FOR CONCRETE
PAVING firms
City Hall Shakeup HeraIdS
New Day, Declaration
of Lobbyists.
CONES FAVORS CHANGE
Reorganized Works Board
Expected to Put Material
on Fair Basis.

It's an ill wind that blows nobody
some good.
Concrete interest lobbyists chant
ed that old saying today as they
roamed about city hall corridors and
congratulated each other on Tues
days board of works shake-up.
For the concrete paving boosters
expect much easier sailing with the
new board of works.
With Frank Cones as new board
president and Virgil Vandagrifft re-
moved they anticipate change in
the concrete specifications which
will result in more concrete streets
being laid in Indianapolis.
Fair Basis for Concrete
Cones declared one of the first
things the new board will do will be
to put concrete on a fair COMPETE
tive basis with asphalt.
Present concrete specifications
call for a nine-inch depth with 81
pounds of steel reinforcement to
100 square foot of paving. Previous
specifications have been for eight
inch depth with AZ pounds Of steel
reinforcement.
The higher specifications, concrete
interests declare, increases the cost
of concrete paving 81 lineal foot
and makes property owners seek as
phalt when many would prefer con-
crete If the specifications were not
unnecessarily high and costs high.
Forced to Petition it
Cones and John Friday, who with
the new member, Charles Riddle,
compose the present board, are re-
garded as friendly to concrete. At
the time concrete was given its old
place on the specifications list and
the specifications we're made higher
Cones and Friday declared they had
nothing to do with the action.
Before that concrete had literally
been out in the cold. 1t was not in
cluded among the paving materials
on which bids were asked. Property
owners were forced to petition it be-
fore bids were asked on 1t.
