LABOR TROUBLE HINTED IN
$250,O0O FACTORY BLAST

bK Itmes Special
HAMMOND Ind, Aug. 15.-The
$250,0o0 plant of the Indiana SAM
tary Pottery Company is in ruins
today, shattered by an explosion
Tuesday which police believe may
have had it's inception in labor
trouble. Operation OF the plant
ceased Saturday, due to disagree
ment between the plant manage
ment and employees.
j. G. Newar, brother OF Abe Ne
war, president OF the company oper-
ating the plant, was questioned by
police IN regard to the blast. Ac-
cordig to P. B. Staley, a molder
who returned to the place Tuesday
to finish some work, Newar, already
at the plant, denied him admission
and was seen to leave shortly be-
fore the blast. Newar said he knew
nothing about the explosion.
Flames enveloped the entire fac
tory shortly after the blast and for
a time f1remen we're unable to ap-
proach nearer than 100 feet. Gas
from mains leading into the plant
is believed to have fed the fire,
which was subdued only after a
fight by the entire Hammond fire
department.
The labor trouble theory in the
case is given weight by negotiations
regarding wages now in progress at

On the heels of the announcement

BANK WILL BUY
AIRPORT BONDS
Offers to Float $500,000
Issue for City.

A proposal by the Peoples State
Bank to underwrite a S50O,O00 bond
issue for purchase of land for a
municipal airport was submitted to
the city airport committee named
by Mayor Slack, which met at the
Chamber of Commerce today.
The letter setting forth the pro-
posal from Felix McWhirter, presi-
dent of the bank, indicated the bank
expected the money to be used for
expansion of the Indianapolis air
port. Five trustees would be named
to hold the land until the city has
paid fourteen annual $4,000 in
stallments, which would take care
Of interest and retirement of the
bonds.
1t was expected the mayors COM
mittee would not take final action,
but would ask the Chamber of
Commerce industrial committee to
recommend a financial plan and a
site to city council from the num-
her suggested.
William H. Book, Chamber of
Commerce civic affairs secretary,
presented a tabulation showing that
a S500,000 airport bond issue would
cost the persons who pay taxes on
$4,000 assessed property valuation
$1.15 year for twenty years.
Edward B. Raub, Jr., park board
attorney, submitted an opinion that
the 1920 municipal airport statute
provides sufficient legal authority
for a municipal airport here.
