BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, May 14.-Anne
Nichols today lost her suit against
Universal Pictures, Carl Laemmle
and Harry Pollard for alleged pla-
giarism and approximately 100000
damages.
The suit was based on her charge
that Universal and Laemnle as pro-
ducers and Pollard as the author
of "The Cohens and the Kellys, "
a screen production, had pirated her
successful play. "Abie's Irish Rose. "
Federal Judge Henry w. Goddard,
who heard the case last fall and
viewed not only the stage produc-
ton but the screen production Of
Miss Nichols play as well as The
Cohens and the Kellys,v held in his
decision that although there was
strong inference that the author
of the latter production got some
Of his ideas from Miss Nichols play,
that, nevertheless, the portions of
her play which were protected by
copyright had not been infringed
upon
There is a wide divergence be-
tween the two in that in Abie'S Irish
Rose, religious motives provide the
conflict between the two families,
while the 'Cohens and the Kelleys'
it is a matter of family. Tammany
Hall and corned beef"
The court found that the success
of Miss Nichols play was not due
so much to newness of plot as to
the authors genius in presenting
it"
My observations led me to con-
clude." Judge Goddard said. that
the two productions differ as to
themes, scenes, episodes and express
sion of idea, although both made
use Of the common property of jew
ish and Irish characters. marriage,

conciIation.
The plot of each has long be-

GOES
ON WAR PATH
AGAINST HOUSE
Ire Aroused by Threat of
Refusal to Accept
Farm Bill.
BY PAUL r. MALLON,
limited Press staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, May 14.-The
senate went on the "War path" to-
day when it heard reports that the
house would refuse to accept the de-
benture provision of the farm relief
bill which it contemplates passing
before nightfall over the objections
Of President Herbert Hoover.
The move Of house leaders was
denounced by Senator Joseph Rob
inson. the Democratic floor leader,
as "a coWardly attempt to interfere
with Iegislatin," and Senator Smith
w. Brookhart of Iowa advocated
that the senate refuse to receive any
bills or communications from the
house if the farm bill should be held
up there.
The house leaders we're in con-
ference and would not say what
they were going to do.
They were busy with tariff trou-
bles, watching the progress of the
new ways and means committee
hearings where thirty-five Repub-
ncanS were pleading for revision OF
the bill now under consideration in
the house.
Advocates of increased duties on
agricultural by-products were heard
and the committee recessed until
Wednesday,. No decision about pro-
posed changes in the bill is ex-
pected before the end of the week.
The house leaders are known to
be opposed strongly to the deben-
ture plan and refused to permit it
to be voted upon WIN the farm bill
was under consideration in the house
several weeks ago.
There has been talk that they
would postpone action on the senate
bill until after the tariff measure is
passed and let the senate carry out
its threat to put he debenure plan
on the tariff bill, too.
Such tactics would precipitate a
war between the two houses, stale
mating all legislation and creating a.
congressional condition which never
before has arisen in this country,
Robson said.
Brookhart said such action by the
house would create Legislative an
archy."

WHITE RIVER
STILL RISING,
CREST NEAR
Further Heavy Rains Over
Central Indiana Might
Cause Floods in City.

Unless there are further heavy
rains over central Indiana, White

weather bureau chief, said today
AT a. m. today the level was 1916
feet, representing a rise Of one foot
and a half in the last twenty
hours.
The crest here should be reached
about Wednesday morning. Arming-
ton declared.
While the White river was below
food stage at all points along its
course, the Wabash was out of its
banks and above food stage at
many points.
Higher at Terre Haute
At Terre Haute, the Wabash had
rsen to sixteen feet, flood stage.
this morning and was expected to
go at least two feet higher.
Vincennes, with a food stage Of
u feet, reported a 11.3 foot level this
morning and the river Will continue
to rise there for three or four days.
Arlington said, predicting a crest
of about Is feet.
The Wabash was expected to go
above flood stage at Mt. Carmel to-
day. Sixteen feet is the danger
point. The crest will be about fout
feet more than that. without further
rains. the weather bureau predicted.
Anderson reported a level OF 1O.5
feet for White river today, foot
and a half below flood stage. No
blesvilIe reported a 11.9 level, about
two feet under food stage. Both
may expect a further rise Of one or
two feet. Arlington declared.
Report Little Damage
Thus far little damage has been
reported. although lowlands are be-
coming inundated, particularly in
southern Indiana.
Advices from Marion said the
Mississlnewa river was four feet
above food stage and had flooded
many acres Of cultivated fields.
High water in some instances had,
hampered motor travel across the
state. Highways at various points
were reported under water.
Fears that Derby day automobile
traffic might be delayed by flooded
roads in southern Indiana was eX-
pressed by the state highway de-
partmert.
It was pointed out that Road 81,
on the New Albany to Evansville
route had been closed to traffic
three and a half miles east of Leav-
enworth. This is an important
artery for traffic on the Illinois
Kentucky route and de-
tours are poor, it was said.
U. S. Road $50 also is menaced,
it was said. Fourteen inches of
water are over the road west Of
Prospect, near French Lick and the
waters are rising one inch an hour,
due to recent rains. So far highway

a neighbor. The two broke in a
door and found Parker lying at the
foot of stairs unconscious.
Mrs. Parker and their two chill
dren we're visiting q neighbor when
