Bus Routes
Supreme Court Hands Down
Ruling in Beech Grove
Controversy.

Cities and towns can dictate bus
routings within their corporate linn
its without dictation from the pub
lie service commission.
Such, in substance, is the decision
OF the supreme court today in re-
versing one case and affirming an
other in the Beech Grove bus line
controversy.
The court affirmed decision of the
Marion superior court in dissolving
temporary injunction and de-
murrer which prevented the Beech
Grove officials from banning South
Side Motor Coach buses off their
Main street.
Frank Stuck, owner of the bus
company, sought an injunction
against the town ordinance enforce
ment in Shelby circuit court, on
change of venue, and lost. Both
cases were appealed to the high
court and ruled on today.
The Shelby case was reversed be-
cause of failure to admit certain
evidence. Rehearing was ordered by
the court.
Judge Clarence r. Martin wrote
the opinions. He points out that bus
line cases in cities and towns are
only under the commission rulings
in the matter of issuance of a GER
tiflcate of public necessity and con-
venience, service, rates and control
of ruinous competition.
Routing is entirely a matter of
local control, the decision states.

AL ANSWERS
HOOvER'S CRY
OF SOCIALISM,
'ReaCtionary Element of
G. 0. p Is ASSaiIed in
Boston Speech.
BY PAUL r. MALLON,
United Press staff Correspondent

BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 25.-Gover-
nor Alfred E. Smith left ringing
cry against what he called the re-
dictionary element of the Republican
party in the capital of this vital
electoral state and set out today for
a twelve-hour campaign through
Rhode Island and Connecticut.
His itinerary was to take him
through Blackstone, Mass, into
Providence, R. L, by motor and
thereafter by train through Hart
ford, Waterbury, Derby, Shelton,
New Haven, Bridgeport and South
Norwalk before he arrives in New
York at 1890 p. m.
10000 Hear Speech
In his speech Wednesday night at
which 1900 persons were massed
in the arena and 1900 more were
connected at two other halls by
loud speakers. Smith made his
answer to the Madison Square
Garden speech of Herbert Hoover,
his Republican opponent.
The candidate commended Hoover's
attitude on farm relief, prohibition
and water power was "a use of
language to cover up something"
Taking up water power develop
ment as the first issue to be dis
cuSSed, the Governor asserted that
not only was Hoover's acceptance
speech vague on the subject, but
his Aug. Is speech at Los Angeles
also failed to express frankly the
Republican candidates position.
If Hoover classed him as a state
Socialist" because he stood for gov
ernmental ownership and control OF
public water power sites, he added,
then Charles Evans Hughes, the late
Theodore Roosevelt and other lead
ing Republicans "also are Social
lists" They stood with him on that
issue, he asserted.
Turning to the farm relief issue,
the candidate said:
1--WE materially add to the ranks
of the state Socialist party when
we take in the members of congress
of both parties in both houses at
Washington who twice voted for
the principle set forth in my stand
for farm relief.
Roosevelt Is Quoted
Former Governor Lowden of nli-
nois, according to the candidates
Monday night declaration, is an &C
tive and militant member of the
state Socialist party. Let me not at
this time overlook the Vice-P resi-
dent of the United States, who be-
cause Of his advocacy of the prin-
ciple set forth in rly speech of &C
ceptance, would become a member
of the state Socialist party.
"How must it ring in the ears of
the farmers in the wheat and corn
belt of the country to have the Re-
publican candidate on Monday
night at Madison Square Garden
line them all up with the state So
cialist party"
"'Do not let them get a monop-
oily on what belongs to the state, "
the Governor quoted President
Roosevelt as saying of the water
power barons."

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Repub-
lican headquarters, the United Press
learned today. privately claims a
basic minimu moi S01 electoral
votes Tor Herbert Hoover.
1t believes the total will be even
larger.
In headquarters is a large tally
sheet, marked and remarked, on
which the Republicans hopes are
listed. Just what states the nation
al committee claims for Hoover was
not revealed to the United Press
though it is known the As New York
votes, 18 Massachusetts and IA New
Jersey votes are not included in the
301 claim.
The committee is known to be
hopeful of adding these three At
lantic seaboard strongholds, as well
as Virginia, Florida, North Carolina
and Wisconsin to the 3O1 minimum.
RaskOb's Estimate 300
OF Wisconsin, the committee is
not entirely confident, it is said,
despite leaders reports that that
state is "in the bag"
The committee contends con-
corning the above mentioned states
only that it expects majority Of
their votes.
Should the fortunes Of war throw
all that group to the Republicans,
then their total, with the 301 min
inum, would reach 421 votes.
There are 531 electoral votes, with
266 needed for election.
Hoover in New York this week
uttered his first prediction of vic
tory, saying that unless Republican
leaders became overconfident the
party would win on Nov. 6.
Chairman Raskob of the Demo-
cratic national committee some
time ago estimated Smith would
have 309 electoral votes. Chairman
Work of the Republican national
committee, has kept silent, hithCr-
to, as to statistics though he Is
known to hold privately that
Hoover will have safe margin on
election day.
Studies Smiths Speech
Hoover found today he had stirred
up a controversy that probably will
dominate the campaign until its
close twelve days hence, when he
denounced Governor Smiths prohi-
bition modification, farm relief and
water power proposals as state
socialism"
The Republican candidate today
was studying Smiths Boston speech
Wednesday night in which the
Democratic candidate ridiculed the
"socialistic" attack.

Great Britain, he said, main
tanned its membership in the
League of Nations without hop
ing much from it, and with
knowledge that in Geneva a
system of intrigue has been
built up in which the basic
ideas of peace and good will are
submerged in a petty flood of
local animosity and self-inter-
est.
The interview follows:
There's no country in the world
that wants peace so much and so
ardently as Great Britain. Great
Britain still feels her enormous
losses in men, money and material
and the disruption of generations
of trade connections throughout the
world.
"She wants chance to recover
from the catastrophe that not only
overlook her, but the rest Of the
world.
Room for All Men
"The British desire is 10 let other
nations work out their destiny with
out hindrance. 1t is recognized III
Great Britain almost to man that
there is room in the world for all
men, all nations.
"But the will to peace must be
born of a spontaneous desire and
cannot be the result of what 1
should call synthetic peace act.

lions is beautiful, magnificent and
idealistic, but in order to achieve a
real League of Nations you first
must eliminate the human factor,

Brought UnannounCed From
Chicago; Arraigned
on Arrival.
$4,000 BOND FIXED
District Attorney Requests
Bail Be Doubled on
Baldwin.

Ted Baldwin, 80, Chicago, de-
scribed by Albert Ward, United
States district attorney, as the
brains of the interstate automo-
bile theft ring, was brought, unan-
nounced, to Indianapolis from Chi
cago, Wednesday, it was learned
today.
Baldwin was captured in Chicago
six weeks ago in an automobile
stolen from Indianapolis. He had
fought removal.
It was learned when he was
brought before Federal Judge
Robert G. Baltzell here today that
he had been ordered removed
Wednesday and was lodged in
Marion county jail.
Miss Lloyd Harrison, captured
with Baldwin, was ordered removed
at the same time, but she is under
$4,000 bond and will not have to
report until her trial is set.
Charged With Car Theft
Baldwin is charged with the
theft of a La Sale coupe here and
transportation of it to Chicago and
with conspiracy to steal, transport
and sell the car.
Baldwin was arraigned this morn
ing and pleaded not guilty.
District Attorney Ward asked that
BaIdWin's $25,000 bond be aised TO
$4,000, asserting he was afraid
BALDWIN would disappear if admitted
to bail.
Here is a man believe will be
able to show was the brains Of this
ring" said Ward. "Eis bond really
ought to $75,000."
Judge Baltzell said he would let
the bond stand at $4,000, but the
marshal should not accept bond
without bringing Baldwin before
the court.
Coincident with Baldwin's ar
raignment the federal grand jury
today resumed investigation of the
automobile theft ring.
The jury several weeks ago in
dicted nineteen persons, including
Baldwin, as a result of its first probe

have handled more than two dozen
stolen expensive automobiles through
Indianapolis.
Resume Jury Quiz
Baldwin, it is understood, has
been Unidentified by a number of per-
SONS as having been active in the
ring.
A former hotel clerk told
Times reporter today he had lost
his Job because Baldwin had led
him, through clever impersonation,
to believe he was the owner Of a
car who had entrusted his automo-
bile keys to the hotel. The clerk
gave up the keys and the car was
gone when the real owner appeared.
About fifty persons waited in the
hall outside the jury room. Among
them was Joseph M. huntington
head of the Ku Klux Khan in In
diana. It is believed the grand jury
might be ready to present its final
report to Federal Judge Robert G.
Baltzell, by Saturday.
Albert Ward, United States dis
trict attorney, said several other
cases probably will be presented TO
the jury during the session, includ-
ing a liquor conspiracy which de-
veloped during investigation Of the
motor theft ring.

How to Wash Blankets
BY Hannah Wing.

Washing wooden blankets and
safely storing them away is one
of the bugbears of spring. Wool
is heavy and hard to handle
when wet. Furthermore. it is in
clined to streak and to become
stiff and boardlike unless carefully
handled. To have soft, fluffy,
clean, cream-white blankets with
out undue exertion follow these
points.
Wool shrinks because when wet
the fiber expands so that there is
a loosening of the little horny
scales on each fiber. AS the cloth
dries these scales on the fiberS
tend to interlock, thus drawing
the fibers closer together. If the
cloth is dried slowly the inter
locking is slight.
Brisk rubbing of the cloth while
wet or the use of strong soaps
which contain free alkah reacts
harmfully on the fiber. Also, hot
water is injurious, and so is a
sudden change from quite warm
to cold water and vice versa.
Soft water is always to be pre-
ferred for washing woole1 blank
cts, but If that is not available
break" the water with sufficient
ammonia or borax so that a good
studs may Be obtained when soap
