any man convicted of rolling his
own should be jailed for six months
A fine Of $500 and costs could be
added at discretion of the Judge.
The bill was killed by the General
Laws Committee. One year later
however, smith introduced IAN act
to prohibit the manufacture and sale
of cigarets." 1t was also killed.
Referring to the second bill, Smith
said:
"That bill was mailed to me by a
woman who wrote a pathetic letter
saying her son died of consumption
and that the doctors opinion was
that cigarets had caused the disease
1 was so impressed that 1 intro
duced her bill and sent her an Of

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, July 27.-Once again
the police department of Chicago
is to become an integral part OF
the city's administrative body-for
the first time in eighteen months.
The police department has OPP
Grated as a separate unit under the
control of Michael Hughes, COM

William Russell, newly appointed
commissioner, is expected to bring E.

1t was indicated today that a
number of demotions could be ex-
pected along with a realignment of
officers all over the city.
The breakup has been expected
here for some time. Discomfort has
been manifest in the ranks, and first
took concrete form when all police
officers were forced to. join the
America First" organization. Every
policeman, regardless OF rank or
political utilization, was invited to
pay $40, the annual fee for men,

Failure to do so resulted in a

First Successful kII-GlObe

BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, July 27.-The broad
cast of the Tunney-H eeney fight on
Thursday night goes into history as
the first successful coordination of
the great broadcasting systems Of
the world.
To accomplish the transmission by
air of the international news event
f1fty-five stations we're linked to-
gether by the National Broadcast
ing Company, two stations-KDKA
and WGY-were utilized for short
wave relaying to the far corners of
the earth and 11,579 miles of wire
we're utilized to hook up the sta
lions.
"The broadcast marked for the
first time the real worldwide broad
casting of a news event" Merlin H.
Aylesworth, president of the Ma
tional Broadcasting Company, told
the United Press today.
1T was the first attempt to CO.
ordinate the great broadcasting
systems of the world, and it was
highly successful. AS Graham
NfcNamee said last night, he was
talking into three days-yesterday,
today and tomorrow
"The international broadcast was
probably the most constructive
thing ever done for the boxing
game. 1t stimulated interest every
where and gave the world a direct
ringside picture Of the clean and
sportsmanlike appearance of Gene
Tunney. There is no question but
that radio has created an interest
in boxing among a type Of people
who never attended boxing contests
before and this broadening of in
terest unquestionably tends to make
boxing a permanent fixture in
American sport life"
In addition to carrying the news
of the fight to the Heeney home
across the sea, the United Press,
over a network of wires, sent the
story Of the fight and fighters to
newspaper Offices in this country,
Canada and Mexico. In addition,
seven Morse wires and high speed
printer machine carried the COM
plete blow-by- blow description from
the United Press Office here to cable
and wireless Offices for transmission
to thirty-nine foreign countries.

CENTRAL TOWNS
FIGHT ISOLATION
FROM RAILROAD
Protest Plan to Abandon
Anderson MunCie and
Lebanon-BraziI Lines.

Representatives of several small
Indiana towns on the Central Indi-
ana railroad today waged a fight
for the future existence of their
towns at hearing before Ralph r.
holster, Interstate Commerce Com
mission examiner, on the railroads
petition to abandon part of it's line.
The railroad asks to abandon the
tracks between Lebanon and Brazil,
and between Anderson and Muncie,
continuing to operate the section
between Anderson and Lebanon.
According to testimony at the
hearing, this would leave a number
of small towns on the railroad with
out railroad facilities. Other towns
on the road, it was testified by H.
A. Wooster, Cincinnati, director of
the Central Indiana and Big Four
railroads, would be cared for
through the Big Four, Pennsylvania
and Monon railroads taking over
connections and switches.
Pennsy, Big Four Interested
The Big Four and Pennsylvania
Railroads own large proportion of
stock of the Central Indiana Rail
road.
The railroad, on it's petition to the
I. G. c.. was given authority in
March, 1927, to sell the road to any
one willing to continue operation,
at a fair salvage price.
Wooster testified several bids were
offered, including two from John
r. Cox, Civic Construction Com
pany, Illinois concern, one of $780,
600 on payments and the second of
100000 on payments with addition
of five more locomotives specified.
These bids were rejected, he said,
because of no guaranty of continued
operation and payments.
Refuse Goodrich Bid
Bid of 1881, 900 by Goodrich Con-
struction Company, Winchester, with
plans to operate between Lebanon
and Anderson only, was rejected,
Wooster said, because it did not
comply with the I. G. G. order.
He said the railroad was inter
ested principally in reducing the
annual deficit and wished to oper-
ate only that part which would
create the smallest deficit.
Wooster, under questioning by
r. B. Coapstick, State Chamber of
Commerce traffic manager, esti-
mater salvage value of the road at
$260,O0O.
Would Isolate Eight Towns
"There is no obligation to main
tain a railroad to take care of in
dustries in small towns" Wooster
said when asked what effect aban-
donment would have on small towns
on the railroad.
Among towns Wooster said would
be without railroad service included:
Shutdown, Bridgton, Walton, Ad-
vance, Macks, Sharps, Chester and
Lapland.
New Ross, Ladoga, Sand Greek,
Waveland, Anderson, Muncie and
Brazil would be served by connec-
tons with other railroads, he teSti-
fed.
