@e\
~--,-...-.---sSsv<

Five witnesses testified that they
would be greatly benefited by
through bus service on East Tenth
street at the hearing on petition for
such service before the public serv-
ice commission today.
The entire morning was devoted
to witnesses favoring the abolition
of the East Tenth street feeder bus
ard establishment of the through
service to the Circle.
Protesting witnesses, backed by
the Emerson Civic League,
were scheduled to testify later
Their contention is that through
bus service will increase the fare.
They now ride the feeder and East
Tenth street street car for a car
check. Through bus service would
be 10 cents.
The petition is being backed by
the indianapolis Street Car Com
pany. which contends the feeder
bus service cost $4,000 last year
and brought in little more than
$4,000. The witnesses testified that
the feeder bus service was terrible.

HIGH SCHOOL
Shortridge Student Beaten
BrutaIIy While Waiting
for Street Car.
PULLED INTO AUTO
Blow of Roughly Dressed
Man Knocks Down Child
at Playground.

A l5-year-old Shortridge high
school girl was brutally beaten by a
roughly dressed man while she
waited for street car at 8:15 this
morning in the most outrageous OF
the long series of attacks on north
side children.
The child, Janice Moore, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Irwin Moore,
who live in the state Playground
was at home under the care of a
physician, with one eye sWelled shut
and cuts and bruises on her body
She also suffered from the nervous
strain Of the brutal treatment she
received.
Miss Moore was waiting in the
Playground shed for a car to take
her to school. Her father is one OF
the Playground caretakers.
Knocked Down; Struck Again
The roughly dressed man, about
35 years old, stopped his blue Chew
rolet coupe in one of the Playground
side roads near the car shed, jumped
out and walked rapidly over to the
girl
without a word the man seized
her by the throat with both hands.
The girl attempted to strike him
with her umbrella. He struck her a
e,4f blow willy, III Ec{ iyT1nn1~
ing her to the ground.
II thought I would act like l was
dead so he wouldn't hit me again, -
the girl said.
But the man doubled up his fist,
stopped over and struck the girl an
other blow on the head. She told
police the man kicked her several
times. She screamed, but she was
too far away from men working in
the Playground to hear her.
The man picked her up off the
ground and dragged her as she in
effectually kicked and struck at
him, to the car, about twenty feet
away. The only words he spoke
throughout the attack, we're get
into the car" barked hoarsely at
this time
Girl Badly Bruised
The girl continued to resist and
the man pushed her into the car. AS
the man was climbing in the girl
leaped out the other side of the car
and started running toward her
home. The man fled in the car. The
tracks show that he narrowly missed
a tree in his speed and cut across
the law to reach the main fair
ground boulevard.
The girls parents summoned po-
lice as soon as she reached home,
almost exhausted, and gasped out
her story. The terrible bruises on
her face and body were proof of the
attack.
Police squads cruised about Il e
north side for some time without
getting a trace of the man. The
girl described him as being about
five feet, six inches in height, and
dressed in blue trousers, dark cap
and>a brown sweater.

lieve the man is one who has hung

Representatives of Foreign
Powers Will Seat Her in
Rank of Curtis Wife.
BY KENNETH G. CRAWFORD,
United Press staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, April 10.-The
diplomatic corps agreed today to
give Mrs. Edward Everett Gam,
sister of Vice-President Curtis, the
rank of the Vice-President's wife in
seating guests at diplomatic func-
tions, according to one of those par
ticipating in an extraordinary meet
ing of the corps at the British en-
baSSy today.
The decision reached at today S
meeting was to be communicated
to Henry L. Stimson, secretary of
State, in a letter from the British
ambassador, Sir Esme Howard,
which expressed the pleasure which
the diplomats feel on being able to
accord Mrs. Gam, as the Vice
Presidents hostess, the social prec-
edence due to a wife of Vice
President of the United States.
Letter From Sir Esme
Following the meeting, Sir Esme
said all members of the corps wished
to settle the matter in accord with
the views of the state department.
A letter addressed to Sir Esme by
Secretary Stimson Tuesday was ia
ken by the ambassador to mean that
the decision today would be in all
respects satisfactory to the secre-
tary of state. Stimson refused to
rule in the matter, leaving it up to
the diplomatic corps.
AS to the effect of the diplomats
ruling upon private social functions,
the ambassador emphasized that
the diplomatic corps does not in
tend to become the social arbiter for
the rest of Washington.
The decision reached today will
stand, the British ambassador said,
until some definite ruling on the
matter can be obtained from a con-
stituted American authority. Such
a ruling would have to come from
the state department, he added.
StimSon DeploreS Dispute
Meantime StimSon today deplored
the predicament in which the state
department found itself as the &C
cepted social secretary to Washing
ton society hosteSseS in need of ad-
vice on questions of precedence.
On investigation, Stimson said, he
found the department gradually
drawn in to what he described as
very undigniied position.
Vice-P President Curtis beamed
with pleasure, upon hearing of the
diplomats stand, but refused to
comment for publication.
LET the action speak for itself, ="
he said
