Emma AIWes Comes Home
to Take Rest After
Long Grind.

'"Well, folks, I'll be home when the
dance is over; don't wait up for me. !"

champion, and fame.

HOOSIERS RAP
WATSON STAND
Nansmen. Hit Senators for
Opposing HefIin Bill.
Pr ri,ncc NnccinL


WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-Free
criticism of Senators Watson and
Robinson appeared today in many
letters from Indiana in the Con-
gressional Record by Senator Hef-
lin OF Alabama, referring to .Hef-
Inns recent effort to secure an
amendment to the naval appropria-
ton bill, providing that the church
flag should not fly above the
American flag during services on
WarShips.
Heflin'S amendment was defeated,
68 to 10, with Senator Watson voting
against it, and Senator Robinson
absent, although he voted on final
passage of the bill a few minutes
later.
Commencing Heflin's stand. the
johnson county khan No. 81 of
Franklin, says, we are wondering
how our Indiana senators happened
to be off duty at the place and
time The women's khan, No. Z,
joins in the letter.
II don't think the good people of
Indiana soon will forget how our
own senators stood on this" wrote
Roy Green of Sommerivlle, Ind. The
Rev. w. H. Bright1nire, North
Alabama street, Indianapolis, wrote
that Heflin would "have hanging
at his belt the scalps of some on
the senate who laughed at him.
Omer S. Whitman, ITO West Thir-
teenth street, indianapolis, wrote, 81
see they have been giving you hell
again. The red blooded Americans
who don't give a rap for the pope
are for you"
Burley Evans, of st. Paul, Ind
wrote: Those senators who turned
you down were wrong. They were
afraid of the Roman boycott"

The experiment is attracting ma
tional attention, several police chiefs
having asked for details of the plan,
by which an operator at headquar-
tiers presses a button and red lights

anywhere in Indianapolis or vicinity.
The flash will be an order to all
policemen who receive it immediate

value in case of a bank robbery or
other emergency requiring fast POI

Other Systems Cestlier
Chicago and Los Angeles have
systems somewhat similar, but far
more expensive and more likely to
break down than the plan proposed
here. In Chicago the automobiles
carry both sending and receiving
telephone sets, but it is said to be
difficult to maintain necessary deli

Hawkins is constructing a special

If this is successful other sets will

a switch all instantaneously can be

The transmitting set to be In

Robert Annis, secretary of the In
dianapolis Radio Club, an amateur
radio transmitters' organization. He
will assist in the installation, and
the station will operate under his
amateurs license.
The experiment will be conducted
on an 852-meter wave length. Fifty
watts will be the power.
The receivers will be special three
tube sets, under present plans. They
will actuate a neon tube instead of
the, customary headphone or speak
er. When a certain voltage is i'm
pressed upon a neon tube, the gas
inside glows brilliant. red. That,
in nutshell, is the system.
The receiving sets, it is estimated,
will cost about $85 each. If guam
tity production ever were attempted,
this cost, of course, would be cut
materially.

BY HoRTENsE SAUNDERS


ATEW YORK, Feb. ia yeal
y ago today, we had three out
standingly eligible young bachelors
for the young women of the country
to compete for-Colonel Lindbergh
John Coolidge and Gene Tunney.
Today Tunney is married. and
Lindbergh, and Coolidge are about
to follow suit, clearing the deck for
new heroes and settling matters SC
far as the waiting women are con-
cerned.
Considering the three women Sc
1ected by these three eligibles, these
questions arise:
Hasn't the talented, studious, cul-
tivated girl won out over her more
dashy and more pleasure loving
sisters? q
Brains Beat Beauty
And hasn't brains scored over
beauty in each case.
Anne Morrow, the f1ancee of
one Of her former teachers at
Chaplin school in New York, as al
most as shy as Lindbergh, and Just
as modest and self-effacing.
Her appearance, according to this
teacher, is not prepossessing. She is
by no means beautiful oval face,
large eyes, mouth with a crooked
little one-cornered smile. Her fea-
lures, taken separately, are not pref
ty, though highly sensitive.
Her. greatest charm is her love-
ly speaking voice, with it's low, vi
brant quality. In school, she often
took the lead In amateur theatricals
and gave quite convincing perform
ances, once even bringing the audi
ence to tears.
Stalwart, handsome Tunney was
attracted by girl who could write
poetry, and who knew more about
Shakespeare and the sonnets than
he did
John Chose Home Girl,
Jonn COondge selected college,
graduate for his bride-a girl with
all-round accomplishments and a
home background, rather than just
good dancer and society girl
While Mrs. Tunney and Florence
Trumbull are athletic, Anne Morrow
has paid little attention to sports,
though now she is naturally much
interested in aviation.
Each of these girls has become
engaged to her first love. Tunney
was the first man who interested
Polly Lauder, with all her millions.
Florence Trumbull admits that
John Coolidge is the only boy she
has ever considered seriously. And
the teacher who described Anne
Morrow to me said:
II would be willing to wager that
Lindbergh is Anne's first beau. I
never knew her to be at all inter-
ested in men--she was very shy
about them, and lived in a world of
her own that only a very Sympa-
thetic man could enter"

JUDGE DENIES
union PLEA IN
MINE BATTLE
Receiver Logsdon Allowed
to Open Pits at Lower
Wage Scale.
CHARGE LAW VIOLATION
Workers Declare Official
Is in Contempt of
Court.
CHARGE LAW VIOLATION

Asserting that "humanity's de-
mands" should have more considera-
ton than wage disputes in Indiana's
coal mine areas, Superior Judge
Linn D. Hay Monday afternoon
denied attorneys for District eleven,
United Mine Workers of America,
the requests set out in petition
filed in the Knox Consolidated Coal
Company case.
The union sought to restrain Ed
win D. Logsdon, receiver for the
company, from opening any mines
in the Bickneu district, because he
was paying miners less than the
contract between the Indiana Coal
Operators Assoc iation and the mine
workers organization called for.
The court held that he could take
no part in contracts signed by Logs
don as an individual ara that the
court was limited to passing on mat
tiers germane to the receivership.
Logsdon Is Assailed
John Riddle of Vincennes, attor-
norney for the mine workers, de-
clared LogSdon had perpetrated "a
contemptuouS conspiracy that has
left a trail of slime across the
whole matter" He said he want
ed to apprise the court Of Logs
dons activities in gathering MN
ers together and uring them to
work for less than the union
schedule.
Logsdon opened the American
mine recently. paying the men So
q day instead of the union basic
rate of $6.10. This was done after
Hay ordered it, subsequent to a
hearing attended by several min
ers.
IF the men are willing to work
at those wages, give them work,
the court said. 1.-THE time came
when the men were willing to work
after two years of idleness and from
what I am told of the conditions
there, the court used good conscience
in permitting them to go to work.
THE children in that territory
are without school bonks, and food
and shoes are scarce.
Must Use Sense
when such conditions exist, 1t is
a greater degree of humanity to let
them work at SIS day than to shut
the mines. That situation must be
handled with common horse sense
and can not be blocked by wage
scales. Each mine should be
operated on a different rate, due to
conditions in the community.
Hav said the mine could not have
been operated on higher scale and
showed any earnings. He said he
did not intend to oversee any re-
ownership in which the company or
mine in question would be operated
at loss.
Riddle objected to the courts view
asserting that "your honor probably
has not been advised of the netarl-
GUS work of your agent down there
among the men in our union.
"You have not been apprised OF
the unlawful conspiracy that / be-
reve is highly 'eontemptuous and is
in violation of the courts order,
The court recommended that If
the union wanted to enter into liti-
cation over the wage agreement
which Logsdon is alleged to have
broken. that the matter should be
filed in routine manner in the
county courts.
