COUNTY PHYSICIAN EXPLAINS

In the news columns of JOday's issue
Of the Press appears q letter from the
county physician, explaining the course
taken in connection with the case of an
unfortunate individual who committed
suicide in the local Jail last week and
which was the cause of an editorial IN
this column.
1t appears from this letter that coun
ty officials connected with the case did
all that might have been done under the
circumstances and acted consistently
with regard to the welfare of the indi-
vidual and protection of the county
The facts as explained by the physi-
clan are somewhat at variance with the
details as first given the Press from Il
source which it believed to be authentic
but which it feels free TO state could rot
be as familiar with the case as the county
physician.
In view Of the criticism received at this
office from number of individuals and
the comment heard in numerous places
regarding the case, we are glad that the
comment by this column prompted the
physicians explanation.
As this is too lengthy 10 be given here
the attention Of readers is directed to the
news columns where It has been placed.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
INFANTRY DUTY
MAY Be VARIED
IN NEAR FUTURE
War Department Conducts
Experiments to Gain
Striking Power.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Private
Terrence Mulvaney was q lance
corporal once and an infantrylnan
always, as Kipling fans readily will
recall. He and his fellow dough-
boys the world over would be cha
grined and saddened when they
were introduced to the modern in
fantryman as visualiZed by the war
department.
An infantryman in these expert
mental, postwar days is as likely
to yank a lanyard or tool cater
pillar truck over ploughed ground
as he is to muzzle his chin against
his rifle butt or brandish a bay
onet. What the infantryman has
come to has been revealed by the
war department.
Experiments Under Way
If experiments are successful, the
infantryman of the next war, If any,
will be a composite machine-gunner,
artilleryman, automatic-rif1eman
and whatnot with here and there an
individual possessing the familiar
rifle, revolver and bayonet.
After experiments at Fl. Ben
ming, Ga, Secretary of War Hur-
ley has authorized organization of
the Twenty-ninth infantry as an
experimental battalion for further
investigation Of new arms and tao
tics.
The purpose Is ITO give the maxi
mum striking power and capacity
for sustained effort without dis
porportionate loss of mobility or
increase of vulnerability.''
Changes Made
The war strength infantry bat
talon to be experimental with will
consist of battalion headquarters,
battalion headquarters company,
three rife companies and two ma
chine gun companies.
The department said changes in
existing organization had been
made, as follows:
Two instead of one automatic
rifles per squad in rifle companies.
Addition of one machine gun
platoon, two ST nm, cannon and
two rs nm. mortars to the head
quarters company.
The effect of these changes is to
increase battalion strength by 326
to 1,173 men and to increase fire
power by improvement of weapons.
Meantime experiments continue on
a semi-automatic rife to Supplant
the rife used during the World
war.

INFRINGEMENT
is DEFENSE OF
CHAIN STORES
Three U. S. Judges Sit Here
on Complaint to Enioin
State Taxation.

Testimony and arguments con-
tending that chain stores are not
monopolistic and that the state OF
Indiana, in attempting to enforce
the 1929 chain store license, was IL
fringing on the constitutional guar
antees Of personal liberty, were
heard today by three federal judges:
The judges sitting in the suit Of
La Fayette Jackson, head Of the
Standard Grocery Company. to re-
strain the state tax board from en-
forcing the law are: Robert G. Bait
zell of the Southern district Of In
diana, Thomas w. Slick of the
Northern district and VIII Sparks of
the circuit court of appeals.
Opening arguments for Jackson
we're made by w. H Thompson,
while Joseph w. Hutchinson spoke
for the state.
Not Property Tax
Hutchinson declared it was with
in the province Of the state to COL
lect a tax on occupations and that
the chain store tax was an occupa-
tiOnal tax and not property tax
and is not discriminatory as long
as it falls alike on all persons in
the same class.
The legislature also has a police
power and in taxing chain stores
1t is endeavOring to regulate their
growth, he argued He said that it
was within the province of the leg
islature to favor one class of mer-
chandiSing over another if 1t deems
1t wise to build up a class of mer-
chants rather than a class of clerks
in a community.
Has Civic Relation
The chain store problems bears a
definite relation to the civic and So
cial welfare of the small commu-
mites, he said.
Robert w. Lyons, executive sec
rotary of the National Association
Of Chain Stores, testified there are
100000 retail unit stores in the
country, while there are but 10000
stores operated by chains. Half Of
the chains are food store operators,
he said.
Part Of the revenue from the
chain store tax will be used to de-
fray SchOOl-aid expenditures, the
law provides.
Hearings will continue Friday, 1t
was indicated.

to tell you about it than
give you a resume OF

leaving the office we
decided the yard goods
department would be a

we are selling thou
