QUIZ WOMAN IN
BAD COIN CASE
Federal Men Attempt to
Trace Counterfeit.

Miss Lee Mollis, 26, Detroit, sus-
pected of passing counterfeit money,
was bound over to the federal grand
jury today under bond OF $4,000
after hearing before United States
Commissioner Fac w. Patrick.
Belief that a confederate accom-
panied the woman to Indianapolis
from Detroit was expressed at the
hearing after government operatives
revealed they questioned the wom-
an more than seven hours in an
effort to link her with large couIl-
terfeiting ring.
A $40 bill which officers say is
bogus, was rendered by Miss Mollis
in payment for shoes she bought
in department store, where she
was held until police arrived.
Recently counterfeit bills of that
denomination have been passed in
several Ohio cities, including Gin
cinnati, Springfield and Toledo.
The bill, according to Charles
Macy, secret service operative, and
his assistant, Fred LogginS, is a poor
imitation. 1t bears a picture of
Alexander Hamilton, portions of
which are so weak that pen had
been used to fill them in.
"It's prepoSterous to think I'd
knowingly pass counterfeit money"
Miss MolliS said, according to off,

Attempts to garnishee Reno's

This revealed that Reno, oeing
sole agent and manager Of the
Mercantile company, was, in truth

i'll which great prehistoric wealth
recently was found, still yields
treasure.
Piles of dust and dirt from the
floor of the tomb which heretofore
had not been sifted completely,
have yielded another quarter of a
pound or so Of tiny beads of gold,
turquoise and other precious sub
stances. There are tiny beads with
holes so small that the finest needles
do not pass through them.
Little gadgets of bone, with two
or more holes, show how the null
tiple strands of the ancient neck
laces were kept together. Ancient
Mixtec goddess, picture records in
colors, that have survived to the
present day, show how strands of
gold, turquoise or red shell beads
were combined.
One necklace has been recon-
structed after a codeX design, out
of the large amount of loose beads
from the floor of the tomb.

BOARD SPLIT ON
COURT APPEAL
Divide 3-2 on Support of
Bill Removing Lower U. S.
Court Power.

Public service commissioner to-
day split three to two on urging
support of the Johnson bill by the
United States senate.
The measure, introduced by Sem
ator Hiram johnson (Rep, CALI =,
would require public utilities to take
appeals from public service COM
mission decisions to the state, rath-
er than federal courts.
Liberals throughout the land are
backing the move as being helpful
in sustaining public utility control
by the states, which has suffered
greatly by adverse rulings of the
United States district and supreme
courts.
Three Favor Passage
Commissioners supporting the
measure and who advocated it's
passage by kilograms sent to Wash
ington today are Frank Singleton,
Howell Ellis and Harry K. Cuth-
bertson.
Commissioners refusing to join
in its support are Chairman John
w. McCardle and Jere West.
McCardle condemned the measure
as being blow at the sacred rights
of property.
The bill now is in Subcommit-
tee of the senate judiciary commit
tee composed of Senators George
w. Norris of Nebraska, chairman;
Arthur r. Robinson of Indiana, and
Henry F. Ashurst of Arizona.
Wire Plea to Senators
Following is the text of the mes
sage wired to Norris and other
members, and signed by Singleton,
Ellis and CuthbertSon:
"The undersigned members of the
public service commission of Indiana
respectfully request your favorable
consideration of senate bill 3243,
known as the johnson bill, which
would amend the judicial code so as
to prevent the issuance of injunc-
tons by lower federal courts to re-
strain enforcement of state commits
sion orders affecting public utility
rates in any state where adequate
opportunity exists for review of such
orders in the courts of the state.
Adequate provision is made by
the laws of Indiana for review by
the Indiana state courts of all de-
cisionS of the public service COM
mission of Indiana. We are opposed
to the procedure which permits
lower federal courts to enjoin en-
forcement of state commission
orders, but favor review of such
orders in the state courts with pro-
vision for review by the supreme
court of the United States upon ap-
peal from the state courts"

LUDLOW BILL SEEKS
LAWMAKER PAY CUT
Measure Calls for rs Per Cent Slash
to $500 a Year.


BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON, March 19.-Rep-
resentative Louis Ludlow of Indian
apolis today introduced bill in the
house of representatives reducing
the salaries of representatives and
senators Is per cent, from $4,000
to $500 a year.
The bill probably never will be
considered as a separate measure,
but if congress decided to cut the
pay of all government employees,
which now appears likely, the SAL
aries of the senators and represent
atives will be subjected to a pro-
portionate reduction.
Ludlow's bill also would reduce
salaries of cabinet members from
$4,000 to $12500 year.
He estimated adoption of his
measure would save the government
$1,362,500 annually.
