Washington, d. c. - John
Thomas Taylor, vice chairman Of
the national legislative committee
of the American Legion expressed
confidence this week that members
of the u. S. senate rules commit
tee have been impressed by unan-
swerable arguments presented to
them in behalf of the legion's pro-
posal for the creation Of a separate
veterans committee in the senate.
The reasons for the establish
ment of a separate committee were
given to the senators of the rules

on a resolution Is. RES. 26) upon
which the body Is expected to re-
port.

time spent since 1925 on veterans
measures in both houses" Mr. Tay-

Illustration of the advantages Of the
separate committee over the SEN
ate's present method of entrusting
veterans bills to its finance COM
mittee.
"The figures show that the house
committee on world war veterans
legislation spent some 440 days In
seven sessions of congress consid-
ering veterans bills. The senate
finance committee in the same per-
iod has spent only 20 days in con-
sidering such legislation. The house
committee has averaged two
months in each session and the
senate finance committee a little
over two days in each session.
That, of course, does not include
bonus legislation. but does other

MAYR 'ABRUPT ON
SPEED RUN QUERY
Tells insurance Man His
Office Did Not O. K.
Baker Race.

Inquiry of an Indianapolis insur-
ance man concerning state police
jurisdiction to block speed trials on
state roads and halt endangering of
lives, has been answered curtly by
Frank Mayr Jr., secretary of state.
Warren S. Gibson wrote Mayr
after Cannonball Baker averaged
seventy and one-half miles an hour
on the speed run from French Lick
to Indianapolis, May 25.
Included in his letter was the
statement that the state highways
are travelled by thousands annually
and the query: Suppose you and
your family had met this menace on
one of the turns?"
Does your office give this speed
fiend a license to do this thing?"
the letter continued. Where were
all the state police at the time this
dangerous driving was going on?
Does my license permit me to en-
danger the lives of persons on the
state highways?"
Mayr, in his answer, said that his
office had no knowledge of the
speed run, and docs not" or could
not, issue a license for such a ri
diculous undertaking"
Another paragraph completed the
letter and, in it, Mayr snapped his
answer to the other queries.
The answer
with reference to the question,
Where were all the police at this
time?' will say that the chart in
our station will give you the exact
location of every one, if you care to
take the time TO examine it,"

Volcano Pit.

By United Press
HILO, T. H., June 13.-The
IL fiery pit of Mt. Halemaumau
was freed today of the bodies of
a native lover and the girl who
refused his suit.
R. KoniShi, a Hilo contractor,
was richer by $1,000 for his dan
gerous trip into the smoking pit
to recover the two bodies from a
ledge, some 300 feet down.
The contractor, Japanese, had
himself lowered into the crater of
the volcano in steel cage.
The bodies of Sylvester Nunes
and Margaret Enos, Lays where
they had fallen, in plain view
from the rim of the crater.
It took four hours for the Jap
anese to be lowered into the VOL
cano, accomplish his grim task of
recovering the bodies, and be
drawn again in the steel box to
the rim.
He said he suffered no discom-
fort from the heat, nor from the
deadly sulphur fumes from the
molten lava only short distance
beneath.
Nunes leaped into the volcano
with the body OF the girl a week
ago.

Efforts of the American Legion

on several important questions.
Troops were confined to barracks,
but the country was reported quiet.
Davila said his resignation was
due to disagreement with one mem

CHILDREN MAKE
SILENT PLEA TO
HALT ACCIDENTS
Sixty Thousand of Them
Free; They Want
to Live.

Sixty thousand children of grade
and high school age today looked to
Marion county motorists to leave
their ranks unsullied by death this
summer.
In addition, several thousand
pupils of county rural schools had
the same silent plea for protection
on suburban roads.
The warning against improper
driving on city streets and county
highways comes as police are
waging a battle against speeders,
drivers who fail to stop at
preferential streets and other auto
lists whose infractions of the law re-
suit in injury and death and COM
prise the multitude Of traffic sins
in Marion county.
Make Streets Unsafe
Each one of the breaks in the
traffic code by motorist has the
potentiality Of making that driver
killer
And each death makes streets
more unsafe for you and members
of your families.
Police and county authorities
joined today in the demand for
safety. Chief Mike Morrissey and
Captain Lewis Johnson of the city
traffic squad, pointed to the numer-
Gus recent arrests in their efforts to
halt traffic law violations.
1T is impossible for us to be every
place in the city, they said. I'VE
must appeal to the people of Indian
apolis, whether autoists or pedes-
trians, to use care. 1t does no good
to be sorry after the damage is
done. Prevention is the only cure
for the traffic evil in indianapolis
Forty-five persons have lost their
lives in traffic accidents in Marion
county since Jan l.
Children Now Free
If every motorist and pedestrian
had followed and would observe, the
regulations of safety this total would
not exist.
Since last September the children,
from to Is, have been under
surveillance of teachers majority of
the day. Today is their first day
of freedom unhampered by school
hours.
During the first week or two of
vacation they will run across streets
while at play or to join compan-
ions. Such action is childlike. But
to the adult driving the car, childish
actions are no excuse.
It's Up to Driver
1t is up to the driver to have his
car in such mechanical condition
and himself prepared for any
emergency so no accident will occur.
The Times joins city and county
authorities in their attempts to sup
press tragedy on the thoroughfares.
The Times expects every man, wo =
an and child Of the county to aid,
not the authorities, but by being
CAREFUL themselves.
That will solve the problem.

Richard Allen in
Thrill Movie
With Oakie

The camera may, to all ap-
pearances, be faster to the eye,
but if the Stunting in "Sky
Bride" at the Palace isn't authen-
tic there will be no complaints
registered, for it is one of the
most thrilling exhibitions of
aerial gymnastics to meet this
eye. And whether you are air
crazy or not there is plenty Of
entertainment.
Speed" Condon's air circus
in a transforming tour Of county
fairs meets tragedy when the
fearless Speed" in little bout
of friendly rivalry, crashes and
kills his pal Eddie. The mishap
leaves Speed" washed up with
the game and he disappears.
Alec, the ballyhoo member of
the circus, trails him across the
country to a flying field, where
he, is working as. mechanic.
With the aid of Eddie's guiding
hand, Speed" comes out of his
doldrums and is about to fly
again when he learns that his
beloved landlady is the mother
of Eddie Fate intervenes and
forces him aloft, however, when
the landlady's grandson is dis
covered clinging to the under
carriage Of plane that has
taken off for the air races.
Oakie Is Superior
Jack Oakie goes pretty far to-
ward owning this picture in the
role of Alec. He shows a re-
straint that heretofore has not
been evident in his clowning.
Richard Arlen as Speed, due to
his part mopes, with only an oc-
casional glimpse of a sunny face,
but he is likable. Tom Douglas,
the ill-fated flier, is delightful.
Others of note in the cast are
little Robert Coogan, Louise
Closer Hale, Harold Goodwin and
virginia Bruce.
Good Stage Show
"FrivolitieS," from the stage of
the Capitol Theater, provides a
varied and entertaining program,
which includes Tom and Betty
Wonder in a fast and furious song
and dance routine; the Chester
Hale girls, showing added versa
tility in a bicycle number, and a
lovely black and white ballet;
Slim Timblin, as purveyor of the
