Mellon started with a $25 1000

JURY IS CHOSEN
FOR RUTH JUDD
Truck Driver to Be First
Witness in Death Trial,
BY GEORGE II. BEALE
United Press staff CORRESPONDENT


PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 21.-A jury
to decide whether Winnie Ruth
Judd must hang for the Staying of
her former friend, Agnes Anne
Leroi, was selected here today and
sworn in Immediately.
The youngest juror was %, the
oldest 70. Their average age was
about 10, and they represented al
most as many occupations as there
were members.
AS its first witness the state ex-
poets to call Richard M. Swartz,
delivery service driver. The state
claims he was the first man unwit-
tingly to aid Mrs. Judd after the
roommateS, Mrs. Leroi and Miss
Hedvig Samuelson, were shot and
killed.
Swartz has said he was called to
the apartment occupied by the two
victims and asked by a woman to
transfer trunk to the railroad
station. He later identified the
woman as Mrs. Judd. The trunk is
supposed to have contained the
bodies of the two girls.
Swartz claimed he advised the
woman the trunk was too heavy to
be sent on a railroad ticket to Los
Angeles, so she ordered it taken
to her own apartment.
Tt was in her own apartment then,
the state contends, that Mrs. Judd
dismembered the body of Miss
Samuelson and prepared both bodies
for shipment to Los Angeles.
Swartz had two helpers who are
expected to substantiate his story
and identification of Mrs. Judd.

CITY PUPILS
PERILED BY
SCHOOL fire
Blaze Adds Weight to Plea
That Buildings Be Made
Safe, Sanitary.
REPAIR FUNDS LACKING
Ancient Structures Called
Menace to Health and
Lives of Children,

Public school officials today reit-
Grated their charges of unsafe and
insanitary" conditions in Indian
apolis schools, following a small
blaze at school No. 68, a portable
school at AIT East Twenty first
street.
Miss Mary Morgan principal of
the school, discovered the fire, which
had originated in flue, and rushed
twenty-five children from the room
which was periled. Firemen quelled
the flames almost immediately and
damage was slight.
Twenty-Five pupils were in dan
ger, however" said one school Of
fetal today, "and that little fire is
just a mere example of what might
be much worse at one of the larger
portables.
OSIer Points to Peril
Indianapolis can not expect per-
fectly safe conditions in a school
system that is allotted only 100000
for maintenance and repairs to
eight-Seven elementary schools.
1T is practically impossible to
maintain a school for an entire year
on only about $1,150.
And yet, when the board of
school commissioners made a plea
for $4,000 the state tax board
Slashed it."
H. F. Osler, superintendent of
buildings and grounds, pointed out
today that eighteen of the citys
elementary schools are fifty or
more years old, that thirteen others
are forty or more years old, and
tnat eighteen more are twenty-five
or more years old.
One Building Is Years Old
School No. 2, the records show, is
seventy-eight years old. School No.
8 is seventy-five years old. Other
schools and their ages are:

The telephone number of the public
service commission is Riley 6551. When
you get an answer, ask for Commissioner
Cuthbertson.
Commissioner Cuthbertson has charge
of the petition from the city of Indianapo-
lis and the South Side Civic clubs, asking
for a reduction of rates on electricity in
this city.
Commissioner Cuthbertson was one of
four commissioners who voted last week
to cut, without hearing or appraisal, the
rates in the city of Marion by 20 per cent.
That decision should be applied to Indians
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-01-21

apolis and applied today, unless Commits
sioner Cut.lbertson can give some good
reason for his failure to act.
All the facts are for bigger cut in
Indianapolis than was made in Marion.
The rates in Marion, before this order,
were 20 per cent lower than those in this
city. That means that had the people of
this city been paying on the old Marion
rates, they would have had 100000 as a
saving during the year 1881.
1t means that on the old Marion rates
which Cuthbertson. with three other COM
missioners, declared were extortinnate and
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-01-21

excessive, this city could have paid for all
its poor relief with the saving.
It means that in thousands of families
there would have been left an average of
SO year. Translate that into shoes or,
food or rent and you begin to get the pic
ture.
If Marion was entitled to 20 per cent
reduction it would take 40 per cent cut
to place this city on level with the terms
of the order. That would mean a saving
of four million dollars year or more than
half the taxes raised in this city for all
government activities.
