PROTECTION OF
GAMING IN CITY
CLUBS CHARGED
Small Fry Bears Brunt of
Police Drives, Lawyer
IntimateS.

Pleading for his client, charged
with keeping a gaming house, Ralph
Span, attorney, today told Mu-
nicipal Judge William H. Sheaffer
that gambling, going on at Indian
apolis clubs in a grander way. is
protected by police"
On trial were Ed Sharp, operator
Of a poolroom at Gas North Noble
street, and twenty-six other men,
who were arrested in his place Sat
urday afternoon by two police
squads. Police confscated 20 cents
and two sets Of dominos from tables
in the place, they said.
According to police, the raid was
made after officials Of the Monroe
Adding Machine Company had con-
ferred with Frank Daily, safety
board member, when they learned
Carney E. Caveny, 1924 Prospect
street, employe, was alleged to have
lost money in the place.
Alter hearing the evidence. in
which Caveny did not involve
Sharp or any of the twenty-siz
men, charged with visiting a gam
ing house, Sheaffer dismissed the
charges.
Sharp didn't know anything
about this and there's no evidence
to show that he did," Span de-
clared. Probably some of tbs boys
sneaked into the back room and
played little game now and then.
We do it at the club, but in a
grander way, and we are protected
by the police
Efforts of Span. Deputy Pros
ecutor Ed Brennan, police, and
Sheaffer finally brought an admis-
sion from Caveny that he had lost
$65 in the place over a period of
several months. For fifteen min
utes Caveny refused to answer
whether he had won or lost money,
but finally admitted losing the
money, after he was ordered by
Sheaffer to answer.

Scripps PAYS Tribute

Robert P. Scripps. editorial direc-
tor of the Scripps-Howard news
papers, in Indianapolis today, paid
tribute to E. E. Cook.
In the death of e. E Cook,
Columbus and Ohio have lost a
leading and certainly one of the
states most public-spirited citizens;
the Scripps Howard newspapers an
able and valued executive, and espe-
cially the younger men in our Or
ganization will miss and mourn a
man who was such an inspiration to
and pattern for literally hundreds
of them as never can be replaced.
81 was learning from Erin Cook
what the newspaper business is all
about, and how fine editorial ideals
can be, when I still wore short
trousers.
IT have been learning from him
ever since. These lessons can not
be forgotten by any Of us. 1t seems
particularly tragic in a personal
way that it was the sudden develop
ment Of his last illness that made
it impossible for me to see him on
my visit to Columbus last week"

BY BEN STERN

PATRONAGE squabbles have split
L more alliances and checked a
greater number of boons than any
other single factor in politics-and
friends Of Frank Mayr Jr., secretary
Of state, are awakening rapidly to
realization of this.
Led by Robert Codd Of South
Bend, deputy secretary of state, the
'Mayr for Governor" boomers are
finding that because of diSappoint-
ments over patronage, not only are
their overtures toward this objective
meeting with a distinctly cold re-
ception, but there seems to be
tendency to suggest that some other
candidate be brought out against
Mayr when and if he seeks renomi-
nation in 1882.
To Offset discomfort among coun-
ty and district chairmen who feel
they were sighted when appoint
ments were made, letters have been
sent out stating there are vacancies
in the state finger print department
and requesting recommendations.
This belated gesture is not meet
ing with much response.
Democratic leaders over the state
are more prone, however, to blame
Mayr's South Bend advisers, who
include Codd, Rudolph Alderman,
and Chester Montgomery, than the
secretary of state.
Some chairmen also openly voice
their distaste over the manner in
which Good hops into Mayr's chair
in the secretary's private Office
whenever he is out.
Il
Two spots where Mayr can not
hope to see much support are in
the old First and Twelfth districts.
Phil Lutz Of Boonville, First dis
trict chairman, has not forgiven
Mayr nor his advisors for sighting
his protege, Earl Spradley, when
Grover CARROT was appointed state
police chief. What Lutz and his
friends object to in particular is the
long delay until the appointment
was announced. They claim that
Mayr should not have played" with
them.
Lutz also objected to Mayr calling
into consultation Gilbert Bose of
Evansville whenever patronage was
being considered.
Up in the Twelfth district, James
D. Adams, Columbia City publisher
and chairman, is not in a forgiving
mood whenever he recalls how he
neither was consulted nor con-
sidered when the patronage was
passed out in his district.
Adams, his friends say, is coming
to the next state convention loaded
for bear"

ASSAIL BOND ISSUES

Bond issues for public improve

BOY HERO TO
Be GREETED BY
HOME TOWNERS
Colorado Section Prepares
to Meet Bryan Untiedt
at Train.
By United Press

81 United Press
LAMAR, Colo, May 4.-This sec
ton Of Colorado prepared today to
celebrate the return of its "favorite
son. Bryan Untiedt, who will re-
turn home Tuesday from his visit
with President Hoover at the White
House.
Bryan IS coming back to the coun-
try where a few weeks ago he was
trapped with nineteen others IN q
blizzard-bound school bus. Five of
his small companions died of the
cold. He was credited with saving
the lives of the others.
Now one Of the nations best known
boys, Bryan will find himself hero
even to his home folks and 1t ap-
peared today that most Of them viii
be at the train to greet him.
The manner in which he con-
Quoted himself at Washington has
won him almost as much praise
among ranchers and shopkeepers
here as his heroisIn in the blizzard,
when he sacrificed almost all his
CLONES TO keep other chlldren warm.
Byran has been offered a trip
around the world by a New York
moving picture company. He has
been offered vaudeville contracts at
$1,000 a week, and has had a half
dozen other offers Of financial gain
through exploitation Of his name.
But there will be none Of that,
say his parents, who have decided
fatty against all such offers.
eve do not want him to live that
way said his mother, Mrs. H. A.
Untiedt, who lost another son in
the bus tragedy.
eve want him to be a real man
through his own efforts and be
worthy Of thethonor Mr.. Hoover has
bestowed on him"

FIGHT WOMAN'S
DEPORTATION
Review of Case Is Asked by
Feminist Party.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, May A re-
view has been asked by the Ma
tional Woman's party of the labor
departments deportation of Mrs.
Lillian Larch, native American,
and her four children to Canada.
The department, in response to pro-
tests from Canada and from Off
Gals of the woman's party, has
said it could see no way to reopen
the case.
Contradicting the contention that
under the law the department could
do nothing but deport Mrs. Larch,
who became an alien by marrying
a Canadian, Mrs Burnita Shelton
Matthews, chairman of the lawyers
council of the feminist body, said
Sunday night, that a postponement
could have been granted to permit
the woman to regain her citizenship.
Under a recent act Of congress,
a woman who narries an alien may
regain her citizenship by taking an
oath Of allegiance before a federal
court.

PRISON SCHOOL
TRUSTEES AIM
New Reformatory Building
to Provide CIassrooms.

By Times Special
MARION, Ind, May 4.-Plans for
installation of an elementary and
vocational educational system for
all inmates to be effective by the
end of 1882 were announced here
today by H. K. York, president OF
the board of trustees of the In
diana state reforrnatory.
Construction of a new four-story
building, funds for which now are
available, will provide the necessary
classrooms. It also is planned to
have dorrnitory on the fourth
floor in which first time inmates
will be confined instead of in cells.
Federal laws prohibiting inter-
state shipment of prison made
goods after 1882 will necessitate the
replacement Of the shops in which
more than twenty articles now are
manufactured, York said. Instruc-
tors will replace many of the shop
foremen as the educational system
is developed. All inmates will start
in the proper class to resume their
education where it was dropped.

IMPLICITLY TO
MARK FUNERAL
OF FINANCIER
George F. Baker, 81, Dean
of U. S. Bankers, Victim
of Pneumonia.

By United Press
NEW YORK, May 4.-Extreme
simplicity will mark the funeral
Of Gorge F. Baker, banker, philan-
thropist and Americas third wealth.
lest man, at his Tuxedo Park estate
tomorrow. The 91-year-oldj flnan-
cier died Saturday after a three-day
illness from pneumonia.
In difference to the wishes of the
late chairman of the First National
bank and dean of American bank
ers, there will be no eulogy and no
honorary pallbearers. His funeral
will be as transformations as was his
life.
Leaders Of finance and industry,
who held the elderly fnancier in
esteem, will attend, but the actual
ceremonies will be devoid Of public
attention.
Hoover Sends Message
The services will be conducted at
noon by the Rev. DR.. Minot Simons,
pastor Of the Al Souls Unitarial
church. Of which Baker was q mem
Der and trustee. Interment will be
in the family vault in Kensico GEM
etery, Valhalla, in Westchester
county.
Many messages of coincidence have
been received by the bankers fam
lily from all over the world and
from sylnpathizers in all walks OF
life. President Hoover was among
the first to send his regrets to
George F. Baker Jr.
Baker built up fame and wealth
during an era which saw other
financial giants such as Rockefeller
Carnegie, Hartman and Schiff &C
quire tremendous fortunes. He
went to work as boy at 81 a week
and on his death his fortune was
known to run into hundreds OF
millions of dollars.
Man of Few Words
He was the chief stakeholder in
the First National bank and in the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company. He had many other mil
lions invested in the United States
Steel Company and in many rail
roads throughout the country.
Baker always told his friends that
he believed silence to be big factor
in his success. His longest speech
was said to consist of six words:
THANK you, and God bless you"
Only once did he break his stead
fast rule never to talk for publica-
ton, and that was when he gave an
interview explaining why he never
cared for publicity.
