good meeting resulted, opening
with a volley ball game and closing

A couple of short stunts were

LaudS Scout Movement as
Medium for Return
to Primitive.
CIVILIZATION MENACE
Adolescence Needs Escape
From Mechanical Life,
Asserts President.
BY JOSEPH III. BAIRD
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March IL
President Hoover believes the
American boy, whom he whimsi-
cally described as the incarnation
of destruction" should add training
in the responsibilities of citizenship
to his traditional education in the
three RS.
Seriously, the President termed
the American boy the most pre-
clous possession of the American
home" in an address delivered here
Monday night to a gathering OF
Bow Scout leaders. Mr.. Hoover
stepped for the moment out OF the
role of President and spoke as a
father.
His speech, obviously drawn from
recollections of his own boyhooo
and that of his two grown sons,
pictured the boy as a primitive
animal" a lover Of stream ana
campfire, but menaced now by the
confirming influences of a mechanical
civilization.
Praises Movement
The Boy Scout movement, open
ing the portals OF adventure" to
the restricted city youngster, was
praised by the President.
Together with his sister" Mr..
Hoover said, the boy is the most
precious possession OF the Americas
nome. 1 sometimes think that one
of the sad things of life is that they
will grow up.
THE Declaration Of independence
calls special attention to him and
his sister in the reference to the IN
alienable rights of liberty and pur-
suit of happiness. At least In the
practical workings Of the republic
we find it easier to realize those
rights for boys than we do for the
grown-up tax-paying citizen.
las civilization becomes more
complex, and as the number OF
human beings per acre increases, as
we live more and more IN towns and
cities than in the countryside, and
as the necessity of submitting to all
forms of Mechanical device carries
us further and further from the
simpler and more primitive forms
of life, we are unconsciously de-
creasing liberty for boys and dimin-
ishing the opportunities for pursuit
of happiness, because the boy is a
primitive animal and takes to
primitive life.
Life of Discovery
His true life should be one OF
discovery, adventure and great I'M
dertakingS not to be found in either
the squalor of the tenement house
or the drawing room OF palat1al
apartment"
The Boy Scout movement, the
President added, is supplying boys
with an opportunity to taste the
Joys of outdoor life. 1t is reyiylng
for him the lore of frontier-camp-
fire, birds, fish, stream, trees and
stars, he said.
Through organization, he pointed
out, boys learn discipline, unit OF
effort, cooperation and the democ-
racy Of play and work These. he
said, are the foundations OF life, the
basis of liberty and happiness and
safeguard against destructive JOY"
in later life.

Actor Greeted
Too JOytully;
Gets TrampIed

BIZ United Press
VIENNA, March 1l.-Emil jan
ningS was laid up here today after
inadvertently starring in an i'm
promptu mob scene at the railway
station on his arrival Monday night
"a scene without director and lit
tie to the liking of the famous Ger
man actor.
A crowd of his admirers met him
at the station. They hoiSted him
on to their shoulders and sought to
carry him above the shouting
throng to a motor car outside.
But JanningS, heavy man, was
too much for them, and they gave
way under his weight.
He fell to the pavement, and was
badly trampled before he succeeded
in fighting his way to the automo-
bile, hatleSS, minus his collar, neck
tie and coat buttons.
JanningS was scheduled to appear
in play at the VolkS theater, but
he was not expected to recover fully
for at least five DAYS.

Board of Safety Has No
Money to Erect Signs
at intersections.

Lives and property of Indian
apolis motorists are periled by in
adequate marking Of through
streets, while the board of safety,
allowing loading zone fees to go I'M
collected, scrambles to find some
SIS 900 for stop signs.
This was the situation confront
ing city officials today as they saw
two more serious accidents chalked
up to an absence of stop signs to
warn out-of-town motorists of
through-street traffic
The safety board, under Mayor
Reginald H. Sullivan's admins
tration, in office two months, has
found no means Of financing the
purchase of signs which the Slack
board should have erected many
months ago.
Because the Slack safety board
and the purchasing agent failed to
buy signs to mark through streets
designed by city council in Deem
Der, 1928, the $4,000 provided for
that purpose reverted to the general
fund, Jan. 1, and so is not available.
Wrangle Halted Action
City council and Slack admins
tration officials in 1929 wrangled
over type and material Of the signs.
In December, 1929, the safety board
recommended purchase of particu-
lar sign, but Joel A. Baker. then
purchasing agent, refused to buy
from the source recommended by
councilmen.
1--WE are aware there is grave need
for these signs, and for month
we've been doing all we can about
it." said Charles R. Myers, present
safety board president. Council
can not appropriate the needed
money, for there's a deficit in the
general fund, the city having only
about $4,000 right now with which
to pay some 100000 bills.
Painting on the pavement won't
do, for the paint won't dry this time
of year. We've asked the legal de-
partment for way out of the
tangle. 1t may be possible to get
transfer Of money from some other
fund"
Thousands Of dollars would have
gone into city Golfers had the safety
board compelled payment of loading
zone fees as required by the traffic
code, it was disclosed when the
laxity was brought to light by AL
bert F. Meurer, former city council
man. Meurer refused to pay a So
fine for parking in loading zone.
He was arrested, released on his
own recognizance, and will be tried
April 3, when the issues will be
argued at length.
Would Equal Needs
Officials point out that collection
of the fees would not have relieved
the stop-sign deficiency except by
reappropriation. The fees would go
into the general fund as collected.
But broadly, the loading zone fees
would have equaled or exceeded the
amount needed to buy the stop
signs.
Three women were injured IN two
auto crashes the last weekend at
New York and La Sale streets,
where there are no warning signs.
Out-of-toW cars figured in both
collisions, the visitors having no hint
that New York street is stop
street,
