GARY, Ind, Oct. 24.-That Di-
rector Richard Lieber of the state
conservation department is not US
ing strong arm" methods to solicit
Republican campaign funds from
game wardens, but that too much
conservation department money is
going for state parks and not
enough for propagation of fish and
game, is expected to be the sub

Jail Curse ON
CiUiliSatiO71, Expert Says
Wright'S Human Engineer
ing May Be Adopted in
City Schools.
BY SHELDON KEY

Prison riots and jaibreaks are
result of one thing -repression-the
one element in our modern system
of justice that wrecks more human
lives than any other.
This opinion of J. Franklin
Wright, humanitarian, who is the
only man listed in who's Who"
as holding a degree conferred by
prisoners, was uttered while he
visited Indianapolis today.
It's not mere preaching WheA
Wright decries our present way OF
dealing with criminals by declar-
ing: 1.-The American Jail is the
greatest curse on civilization" He
has spent sixteen years introducing
a character building program into
prisons and public schools.
This purpose brought him here
to confer with Indianapolis school
authorities who may adopt his
character engineering plan.
Women in jail have asked that
their children may come and hear
his philosophy and others who have
served terms have returned to jail
to hear his instructions. Wright
founded the Pathf1nders of Amer
lea, which teaches $4,000 school chill

while working on railroad

His degree ID. G. S." doctor of

STUMP URGES
REVISION OF
CONSTITUTION
EIrod Takes Opposite View
in Debate Before Opti-
miStS' Club.

Depression has bred public eau
ton that makes the present time
ideal for a constitutional conven-
ton to rewrite Indiana's Anticipated
basic law, Albert Stump declared to-
day in a debate with Milton Elrod
at the Optimist Club luncheon in
the Claypool. Both are attorneys
During a period of expansion
and booming financial conditions.
the public develops an optimistic
spirit and debts are likely to be
looked upon lightly" Stump as
serted. The day Of reckoning gives
them no worry.
But in the days of financial
stress and depression, the public
develops a caution and careful at
titude. That is the condition it is
in now. Public debts are looked
upon with deep concern. Obliga-
tons are incurred with great cir
cumspection.
Would Act Cautiously
with the state of mind existing
now, there would be no danger that
a constitutional convention would
weaken any of the safeguards
against mourning debts. Those lini-
tations even might be made more
strict. There would be no posi-
bility of relaxation.
The most scholarly and thought
full citizens of the state are attract
ed as candidates by a constitutional
convention, Stump said, adding
there is no reason for the design
ing politician to want a place in
constitutional convention, for there
are no appropriations to be made,
no contracts TO be let, no patron
age"
There is only the study Of the
fundamental problems of govern
ment, and that is thrilling only to
the studious and scholarly citizen.
Constitutional conventions have
attracted in other states the bright
est and best of the business men
and of the professions of the state
in which they we're being held. The
same thing would be the case in
Indiana
Unnecessary, Says Elrod
In reply to Stump's arguments
favoring a constitutional conven-
ton, Elrod termed the convention
unnecessary"
"The changes desired in the Con-
Stitution are meritoriouS, but it is
not necessary to secure them by
calling a convention" he asserted.
1.-THE proper procedure for securing
the changes is through amendment
of the Constitution or by legisla-
tive enactment"
Elrod cited the incomee tax and
changes in the judicial system as
the only constitutional changes
necessary.
"It is dangerous to change the
Constitution" he warned, "for Con-
situations are built for permanency
and a convention Of the type to be
called would bring out the agita-
tors, political theorists, and per-
sons seeking special privileges" he
said.
Elrod declared the cost of revis-
ing the Constitution, estimated at
coupled with the fact that
its revision would become politi-
cal battle-ground, were other fac
tors against it.
Elrod is acting director of the
Back tot Constitution League with
headquarters at 329 Circle Tower
building.

NTHER leaders, while more re-

There are a great many signs
that things are getting better in
many directions" Thomas Grid
Ter, president of Republic Steel,
said.
VXTHILE sounding a warning
w that unreasonable expan-
sion would result in overproduc-
ton, Schwab pointed out that new
uses for steel, especially alloys,
were being developed every day.
Aviation, improved railroad and
automobile transportation, ship
building and building construc-
ton all are demanding greater
volumes of steel.
Ingot production this year will
be around 100000 tons. or

BANKERS PLAN
FARM RELIEF

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2S.-tF-
Farmers and business men OF the
drought afflicted states had notice
today from the bankers in charge
OF relief financing that they must
look primarily to their local banks
and credit organizations for funds
to get back on their feet.
Adopting a program OF %coordina-
ton for furnishing credit to COM
munities deprived Of their normal
reserves by the rain shortage. the
fiscal representatives Of Is state
LIEF committees yesterday recon-
mended the full legal use Of federal
credit available. They made plain,
however, that would not be suf-
ficient to give full measure relief,
which, unfortunately seems TO be
anticipated IN many quarters
Nor, perhaps" they aided, will
such a program fully meet the en-
Urgency that exists
The recommendations adopted by
the bankers on the basis OF the
report of a subcommittee headed
By Melvin A. Traylor. president Of
the First National Bank Of Chi
cago, provided first for employ
ment OF the full credit Of local
banks and expansion Of existing
agricultural credit corporations and
cooperative marketing associations,
Next. where those were unavailable
or inadequate. the bankers favored
formation Of agricultural credit
corporations to operate as loaning
agencies under the intermediate
credit banks.
The cooperative associations we're
advised to use the liberal" finan-
ciai assistance offered by the farm
board. The findings of the bank
erS we're incorporated in a report
presented 70 President Hoover. at
whose instance they met in Wash
ington to formulate plans. To the
report was appended a list of ia
cilities available through federal
agencies prepared by the officials.
The department Of agriculture
listed several relief tasks In which
1t is engaged but pointed out that
it had only $500. 900 in any way
available for loans. This amount
Is restricted to the 1880 crop in
Virginia, Missouri. Oklahoma. and
Alabama, being the balance or a
special appropriation for seed loans
in southern states made by con-
gress last winter.
The treasury reported no funds
available. The Federal Reserve
Board promised leniency toward

giOn.
