G. Leslie came to coping the G. O.
P. presidential nomination.
Credit for stopping Leslie was
given to Lieutenant Governor Edgar
D. Bush by one of the conferees to
the amazement of the others in the
huddle.
How come? they asked.
And the answering is an interest
ing commentary on practical poll
tics.
Governor Leslie was host to the
governors conference here last year
and made valuable contacts.
If he had attended the conference
in Richmond, Va, early in May of
this year, he could have renewed
friendships and impinged himself on
the minds of his fellow governors
(aS only he CAM, so that they might
have gravitated toward him natur-
ally at the national convention.
These friendships, together with
the alliances entered into through
the fight for the dry law repeal
plank, might have pat over Leslie.
But he did not attend the Gov
ernor's conference. Why?
Because of Ed Bush, whose re-
ported threats that he would issue
a call for special session If Leslie
left the state, kept the Governor
close to the f1reSide.
So, by this reasoning, Bush beat
Leslie for the vice presidential
nomination.

CITY TO FIGHT
RULING ON COP
Judge UphoIdS Policeman
0uSted in Rum Case.

Ruling of Superior Judge William
A. PickenS mandating the safety
board to reinstate Martin O'Brien as
patrolman will be appealed to the
supreme court, city attorneys
stated today.
The order paves way for four
other men, who have been cleared Of
charges in federal liquor con-
spiracy case, to regain places on the
force.
Happy over the outcome of the
trial, O'Brien declared today he was
confident the higher court would
not rule against him."
Pickens also ordered that O'Brien
receive back pay from September,
1881, date of his suspension as an
officer. The total is $4,000.
O'Brien and the four officers were
convicted in federal court of con-
spring to violate the federal prohi-
bition law. The convictions were
reversed by the United States cir
cult court of appeals.
Since the officers we're removed
because of this conviction, Pickens
held, in view of the reversal, that
they were ousted from the police
force without cause.
Other removals were: Ralph Lam
bert, who recently dismissed a suit
asking reinstatement; Thomas Gray
whose case was taken under advise
ment in Hendricks circuit court at
Danville, and Floyd Reidenbach and
David Curran, who have suits pend
ing in the Marion circuit court.

City Woman in Siam

Revolution in Siam was brought
closer to Indianapolis today when it

fairs to King Prajadhipok, is the
daughter of Mrs. Rosanna Sphinx

No great fear is expressed for the
safety of the Stevens, and this be-
lief is borne out by press dispatches
describing the revolution as blood
less" 1t has not yet been learned

NONUNI0N MINE
NEAR
Owners Indicate Action
After Pay Farley Fails.
By United Press

By United Press
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, June U.s.
Opening of Indiana coal mines on
a nonunion basis was foreseen with
rejection of proposed new 81
wage scale by delegates to a con-
vention of District II, U. M. w. A.
The two-day meeting of Indiana
miners delegates ended Friday,
after the unfavorable vote on the
new scale suggested by operators
and approved tentatively by the
miners scale committee.
Harvey Cartwright, commissioner
of the Indiana Coal Operators AS
ISOLATION, had indicated that fail
ure of the miners to accept the
scale probably would end efforts of
operators to negotiate.
Our alternative will be to oper-
ate without the United Miner Work
ers," he said.
The convention ratified action of
President Abe Wales that strip min
ers continue to work under the old
scale of $6.10 day basic wage.

KING OF SIAM
AGREES TO END
ABSOLUTE RULE
Meets Demands of Rebels
to Become Constitutional
Monarch of Nation.

By United Press
WASHINGTON. June Is. The
American legation at Bangkok,
Siam, reported to the state depart
ment today that King Prajsdhipok
against whom a revolution broke
out Friday, had agreed to surrender
his absolute powers and become a
constitutional monarch.
His decision, the legation said was
greeted with great popular enthu-
siasm.
The rebel movement was accom-
plished with little bloodshed or dis
order. 1t was led by army and
navy officers. and supported by
Siamese suffering from economic
depression and heavy taxation.
The rebels arrested the leading
princes of Siam. They sent gun
boat to the seaside resort of Huahin,
where the king was resting. to bring
the monarch here to make his de-
cision.
Criticised Absolute Rule
There was no movement to Gust
the king completely from the throne.
He was given the opportunity
to continue to rule, but with limit
ed powers. Otherwise, the rebels
said, they would establish republic.
Although the rebel proclamation
invited the king to continue on the
throne which the Chraki dynasty
occupied for $50 years, it severely
criticised the absolute monarchy.
It contrasted the life of the princes
with the sufferingS of the people.
King Prajadhipok has been re-
garded there and abroad as west
ernized'' monarch.
The uprising was directed prin-
cipally against the senior army off,
GERS and the elders of the govern
ment. They have opposed any lib
eralization of the regime that the
king might be expected to suggest.
Army Chief Is Shot
There was only one act of serious
violence. The commander-in-chief
of the Siamese army resisted arrest
and was shot. Other high army
officers were imprisoned with mem
bers of the government and the
princes. Prince Kambaengbejra,
minister of commerce, was the only
cabinet officer to escape.
Cheering throngs surged through
the streets and pledged support to
the rebels.
The streets of Bangkok were
manned with machine guns and
tanks, but there appeared little like
lihood that any use would be made
of the display of military force.
Prajadhipok, 38 years old4 light
dark man, whose western ideas in
cluded European clothing and golf,
assembled to the throne of Siam in
1926, succeeding his brother
Rama VI.
Among the titles he assumed we're
defender of the faith" and posses
sor of the four and twenty golden
umbrellas" He married the 81
year-old Princess Rambai Barni in
1918.
Last year the king and queen
visited the United States for an
operation for removal of a cataract.

LiOes of Tech Pupils Periled'
IWOYkn1en at School Discover
Rotting Joists Are Found
as Rebuilding Task
Is Started.

Lives of hundreds of Arsenal
Technical high school pupils have
been in peril daily for the last sew
eral years, it was revealed today by
school officials.
The danger was learned first by
workmen engaged in rebuilding the
old three-story arsenal building at
the school, who discovered that dry
rot had attacked joists supporting
the heavy roof of the Sixty-seyen-
year-old building.
School officials marveled that the
roof had not collapsed before, point
ing out that heavy snow last
winter might have resulted in the
125-ton slate roof falling on pupils.
Damage Is at Ends
Principal damage to the joists
was on the ends, where they are
supported in the walls. The rotting
away is believed to have been caused
by water from roof leaks before the
new slate roof was placed on the
building several years ago. The
condition of the joists was not dis
covered at that time.
Ends of most Of the joists on the
north wall are so rotten that the
wood can be pinched away and
crumbled by persons fingers.
School officials have ordered the
joists reinforced with steel and con-
crete at an additional cost of $500.
Work on the building was started
the day after school was closed and
is progressing rapidly. When COM
pleted, the building will add the
equivalent of nine classrooms to the
school.

Offices to Be Moved

In the past, the first floor was
occupied by the print shop, now in
another building, and the library.
Second and third floors housed class
rooms and book store, while the
basement, with low ceilings, was
used as a bicycle check room and
r. o. T. G. room.
This fall administrative offices Of
the school will be moved to the Ar
senal building, first floor, from the
main building, giving five class
rooms in the main building.

disqualification in which we
can so readily become stuck
fast.
A Christmas tree-at least a.
wreath or two around the house
tied with bold red ribbon-adds
nightly toward bringing out
your Christmas feelings and
keeping them alive. Even when
there are no children in the
house, a tree or other symbol Of
this time of charity and good
will will make you feel better
inside; and a Christmas carol,
heard over your radio perhaps
on Christmas Eve, can make
you lose yourself in beautiful
thoughts and can rouse emo
tions thai have lain dormant for
years.
Far From Love
Perhaps you have drifted
away from love, kindness, af-
lection and a general sympathy
with the struggles and faults
of humanity as a whole, and
have not even realized the
change that has come over you.
Maybe you have lost all these
more subtle sensations because
your ambition or success have
hardened you, or your d1sap-
pointments and failures have
embittered you and made you
cynical and Indifferent.
If so, think about the fact
that Christmas will soon be
here again.
Go out without delay and
buy some child a toy that you
know will delight its heart. Buy
a meal for someone who is
starving. Subscribe to one OF
those worthy charities that are
now soliciting your aid. Help
somebody who you know will
profit by your encouragement,
kindness and understanding.
Yes, the Christmas spirit is
worth fostering, whether it be
on December twenty-fifth or to-
day. And plenty of it is
needed, particularly this year!

Beating the Laws

When you cannot go game,
If an adversary has incurred a
penalty which will prevent his
side from further bidding, why
bid when you should know that
your own side cannot go game
and that further bidding on
your part may enable opponents
to go game?
Law 40 states that a player
having made an insufficient bid
may make it sufficient in the
same denomination (Suit), If he
does so before a player calls
attention to the insufficiency.
If a player calls attention
to the insufficiency, the maker
Of the insufficient bid must
make a sufficient bid, of
any denomination he chooses.
But the partner of the one
making the insufficient bid
cannot bid when his next
turn to bid comes. w were
sharp enough to take advant-
age of a stupid reopening of
the bidding after Y had made
an insufficient bid, and when
ABB held their opponents at
their mercy. The hand below

The Washington times., 1932-12-13

Perhaps you're one OF the
many women who've been
wearing those soft, meshy
undies that are warmer than
silk, but are smart looking too.
There are several versions on
the market, some of them of
wool, some of cotton. For
Washington, most women find
cotton sufficient, and they like
the panties and shirts because
they fit so snugly without a
single wrinkle. And now, best
news of all, the same cotton
material is out in nightgowns
and pajamas. They are about
the youngest-looking things
you've ever seen, but they are
practical too.
They Really Fit
This soft, meshy material is
cut on extremely well-fitting
lines for these new garments.
The gown is fitted as snugly
through the waist and hips as
a dress, so that it will always
have good lines, but because
the fabric is meshy, with some
give in it, the gown cannot
bind or get too tight. There's
a ribbon finishing the neckline,
and at the waist. Cap sleeves
give the effect of covered
shoulders, and for the practi-
cal minded, lend a bit of
warmth on cold nights. The
pajamas. have a round high
neckline, like new clothes, and
little sleeves with a flounce.
The same flounce finishes the
blouse and another ribbon ties
the waist. The trousers are
Semi-full, for comfort, with
straight lines. The material
washes like the proverbial rag
and requires no ironing, which
is a great recommendation.
