TO SUCCEED GREEN

Is retiring from Congress to a Federal
judicial post Hawley may find the
Legislative class room" little more un-
ruly than those he presided over at
Willamette University at Salem, Greg.
He vas president of that institution.
As a stalwart In the ranks Of House
Republicans he will find his most diff
cult Job in keeping the Democrats
under control as the ways and means
committee with its power to initiate
tax and tariff legislation is one OF the
big policy-making committees IN Con-
eress. and for that reason probably
more political rows are stirred up at
its meetings than in any other OF the
half hundred committees on Capitol
Hill
But Hawley. whose father and mother
were among the first pioneers to travel
the old oregon trail, is accustomed to
and unafraid of political skirmishes
and, IL things become too boisterous, he
has one Of the deepest and most melo-
dious of voices that can drown out
opposition and make himself heard in
any verbal fight.

Skeptical about the practicability OF
steam m-propelled vessels for crossing the
Atlantic. Marine architects proved To
their satisfaction at least that the nee
essary bunker capacity would be larger
than the vessel itself. The attitude OF
the public at that period toward steam
propulsion was illustrated by the fear
which must have prompted the sugges-
ton to tow safety barges astern TO pro-
tect passengers from explosions OF boil
ers and also to save passengers from
engine noise and vibrations.

This fear Of explosion was not un-
warranted. as 1t is recorded that dur
ing the first 80 years history Of steam
propulsion there were about so explo-
sions, causing a casualty list longer

today, In spite OF the fact that hydrogen
has been used almost exclusively as the
lifting gas.
It was in 1919 that the Savannah. a
300-ton vessel about 100 feet long, made
what is accepted as the first ocean
crossing using steam power. Actually,
she used partial sail power and took 25

Hardman in Thompson's case.
Reads" Faces
Governor Hardman was a prac-
ticing physician before he went into
politics, and has made special stud
les of facial characteristics, phre-
nology, and finger prints.
He believes careful physical ex-
aminations, paying especial atten-
ton to faces. heads and finger
prints, show whether prisoners are
criminal types and whether they
are insane.
When Governor Hartman gave up
medicine for business, he always
studied the heads of men with
whom he came in contact in bust
ness ways.
The Thompson pair and a Negro,
Jim Moss, were convicted of shoot
ing Coleman Osborne, a storekeeper
in Chatsworth, Ga, a year ago.
Robbery was the alleged motive. All
three were sentenced to death.
Hard Case for Defense
A few hours before the execu-
ton of Thompson and Moss the
other day, Mrs. Thompson told au-
thoritieS that her husband and the
Negro were innocent. She and a
secret lover plotted Colemans
death, she declared. because Cole
man knew of their relations. She
named a prominent resident of
Chatsworth as the lover
Governor Hardman and other
officials promptly branded the con-
fesSion as false and Thompson and
Moss were executed.
The queer question Of the effect
the confession will have on her own
fate arises now.
Her death sentence 4 as been ap-
pealed, under her original denial of
any knowledge of the murder.
But if her lawyers still press the
appeal, they will be handicapped by
the knowledge that the girl has adj
mitted blame for the murder,
though in a different way from that
pictured by the States evidence.

FIGURE COST 100000

A plan to remodel police head
quarters and city prison by razing
the addition in the rear of the pres
ent building and erecting a five or
six-story building at cost of $500,
600 is being formulated by Police
Chief Claude M. Worley.
Worley will submit his plan soon
to the board Of safety for approval
and then the proposal will go to the
board of works, which would init
ate steps for a bond issue to pay
the citys share of the building. The
county will be asked to pay part of
the cost, as the two municipal courts
are still to be housed in the re-
modelled structure, according to
Worley's plans.
Conditions InSanitary
The increased number of arrests
and growth of police business and
the bad conditions of the sections
of the present building on the sec
ond floor now used for the men and
women's prison make necessary the
remodeling, Worley declares.
All recent grand juries have criti-
cised the insanitay conditions in the
city prison.
At present the police department
garage is inadequately housed on
the first floor of the addition. The
women's and mems prison sections
are on the second floor. Worley
proposes the razing of this struc-
ture.
In its place he would erect a plain
brick building connected with the
front Of the present headquarters
structure. He also will suggest the
purchase Of a twenty-foot strip of
land from the Indianapolis Power
and Light Company along the rear
of the police building site.
Two Floors for Garages
The garage to house police emer-
gency cars and patrols and motorcy-
Giles will occupy the first floor of
the new addition. according to his
plan. The second floor would be
used for storage of police squad
cars, motorcycles not in everyday
use and for motorcycle repair
shop.
The third and flour floors, accord
ing to the plan, will be used by the
county for the two municipal courts
now on the second and floor floors
of the front of the present building.
The fifth floor would be used
for the prison section, and the
sixth floor, if built, to provide roll
call rooms, wash and shower rooms
and recreation room for police.
Individual Cells Proposed
An innovation Worley will pro-
pose will be erection of about $50
individual cells in the mems prison
section and about fifty individual
cells for women. AT present all
prisoners except those charged with
very serious crimes are kept to-
gether in large cell block.
According to the chiefs scheme
the space now occupied in the front
headquarters building by the mu-
nicipal courts and the roll call room
would be used to expand other de-
partment administrative offices.
More space would be provided for
the Bertillon section, Gamewell sys-
tenn, captains Office and other de-
partmentS.
Such remodeling of police head
quarters would house the police de-
partment adequately for number
of years and use of the front of the
present building would keep the cost
to the taxpayers to a minimum,
Worley believes.
