No. 3 station, on Virginia ave-
nue., south of Fletcher place, was
abandoned a few years ago and
now is occupied by a laundry.
The fifth oldest station still in
use, No. 6, at 533 West Washing
ton street, also is doomed to be
abandoned and RACED, if recon-
mendations of Voshell are
adopted.
XTOSHELL plans to replace old
' Nos. l and stations, built
to house horSe-drawn apparatus
before modern automotive fire ap-
paratus was dreamed of, with one
modern bungalow-type station.
This would leave an extra COM
pany which could be located in
the vicinity of East Tenth street
and Emerson avenue, he said.
The first organized fire depart
ment here was formed in June,
1921, shortly after the citys birth.
The volunteer flremen operated
with leather buckets and ladders,
until 1885, when a hand engine
was purchased and the Marion
Engine, Hose and Protection Com
pany was formed. Boys and young
men took over the bucket COM
pany.
The first paid fire department
was organized in 1859, the city'S
first steam engine being purchased
a few months later.

Now Seek ''Victory Fund"

Democrats Raise 100000 Debt and
Now Seek Victory Fund"
By Scripps-Hot0drd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, March 12.-The
Democrats have raised enough
money to pay off the 100000 debt
owed to National Chairman John j.
Raskob for the 1928 campaign, it
was learned today.
Future collections will be to pay
the Raskob loan for past mainte-
nance of headquarters here and
creation of $500,000 fund to start
the 1882 presidential fight.
1t is understood this glad news
for the Democrats will be an
nounced at the Jefferson day din
ner here April Is, when almost all
potential candidates for the preSi-
Dental nomination will rub elbows
and ideas at the same table. All
have worked in close cooperation
to raise the victory fund.-" fixed at
$1,5OOO00.
Raskob still is financing party
headquarters for about $4,000 a
month. He is owed about S375, 900
on this score.

CIXTY years ago Indianapolis
~ f1remen looked with pride on
four new fire stations, the latest
word in fire houses.
They were built to endure, and
they did endure, for all four still
are standing today, two of them
in use as fire stations, and a third
having been abandoned only few
weeks ago.
But the march of time can not
be halted, and the remaining two
soon may make way for more
modern structures.
Members of the safety board are
considering recommendation of
Fire Chief Harry E. VoShell, that
station No. /, on Indiana avenue,
be replaced by new station on
another site.
CITATION No. 1, Oldest f1rehouse
~ in use here, was placed in use
Dec. %, 1871.
Five days later three more sta
tions were completed. They were
numbered 2, 3 and 4. No. 2, at
TAB Massachusetts, avenue, later
known as No. 8, just has been
abandoned with completion Of
new No. 8 station on Eleventh
street, at Broadway.
Station No. 4, still in use and
now known as No. 10, is located
at Russell avenue and Merrill
street.

FIRE FIGHTERS WILL
CARRY RADIO OUTFITS
Sets Will Be Carried on Backs by
Federal Rangers.
az Scicnce SerUice

Be- Science Service
WASHINGTON, March 12.-Fire
fighters in national forests will go
into the field this summer to try
out, for the first time, radio sets
they can carry on their backs. Each
set, consisting of transmitting and
receiving units, weighs but ten
pounds. officials of the United
States forest service here have re-
vealed, and will enable the forest
personnel to keep in constant touch
by signal code.
The approaching fire season also
will see the introduction of the i'm
proved radio outfit which permits
transmission not only of code, but
of voice as well. These sets, greatly
simplifled and extremely reliable,
weigh but twenty-five pounds and
can be transported on horseback.
If funds are available, several hun
dred of them will be purchased and
put into use.
The twenty-five-pound set is a
refinement of the Seventy-eight-
pound outfit experimental with in
Columbia national forest during the
summer of 1890. Strenuous tests,
forest service officials said, have
shown the lighter set to be almost
too good to be true" 1t permits
the broadcast of the voice up to a
distance of 100 miles.

CASES OF VAST
IMPORTANCE TO
FACE CARDOzO
New Justice of Supreme
Court win Assume
Duties Monday.

By Scripps-H otodrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, March 12.-Judge
Benjamin N. Cardozo of New York
on Monday noon will become asSo-
ciate justice of the nations highest
court.
Work for the new justice already
awaits. After his appointment, the
supreme court reasSigned some nine
cases for argument, five of which
already had been argued before
the court. Among those assigned,
but not argued, is the packers case,
involving the famous consent de-
cree, under attack by the Big Five
packers.
Since 1920, when the packers be-
gan their long fight to modify the
decree, so they could engage in
other industries, the legal battle has
ragged. The District of Columbia
supreme court has permitted GER
tain notifications of the decree, but
the government argues that no
equity court has power to modify
decree over the objection of one
of the parties, and under a special
provision the supreme court is hear
ing argument on this point.
May Cast Deciding Vote
Since Chief Justice Hughes ar
gued the packers case in 1927 and
Justice Stone was attorney general
under the same proceedings, it is
probable that both of these men,
berS will ask to be excused.
Justice Cardozo may cast the de-
Gliding vote in this important and
long-drawn-out controversy.
Among the reassigned, but once
argued, cases are those of:
Fox Film Corporation VS.. Tax
Commissioners of Georgia, involving
constitutionality of the Georgia
gross receipts tax.
California, involving that states
right to tax the income from other
wise tax exempt securities in COL
Letting corporation franchise tax.
Governor Murray Involved
Oklahoma, involving the right of
Governor Murray to use troops in
enforcing the state oil conservation
law.
Iowa, involving stockholders re-
troactive liability in state bank
case.
Texas, involving the right of a
Negro to recover damages from the
state for having been deprived of
the right to vote in a primary cleo
ton.
There are twenty-five cases
awaiting decision following argu-
ments, the most important of which
is a test of the constitutionality of
the estate tax provision of the 1926
revenue act relating to transfers
made in contemplation of death.

CARS CRASH HEAD-ON
Passengers Shaken as
Tram, Interurban Collide.

Collision of an Indiana railroad
interurban car and a city street car
at BrookSide avenue and Hazel
street Friday afternoon resulted in
passengers being severely shaken.
Nemer Meeks, 1922 Valley avenue,
city car motorman, saved himself
from injury by leaping to the
ground just before the cars crashed
headon. The city car was damaged.
Meeks told police block signal
device did not show the traction car
was on the tracks. A. E. Poe, 416
West Thirtieth street, was motor
man and Albert Leard of Eaton,
conductor of the interurban. Poe
said he operated the signal shortly
before the collision.

APPEALS VOICED
FOR HINDENBURG
ON BALLOT EVE
German Election will Be
Sunday; Hitler Is Fascist
Candidate.
BY ERIC KEYSER

United Press Stan Correspondent
BERLIN, March 1.-THE big
guns in Germany'S exciting presi-
Dental campaign roared their final
challenges today. insisting on a
vote for Won Hindenburg so Ger
many may live" as 100000 pre-
pared to go to the polls Sunday.
Chancellor Heinrich Bruening
brought the support of President
Won Hindenburg to a climax in an
address at Berlin's huge sports
palace, packed by crowd Of $4,000
persons, while thousands stood
around loud speakers in the cold
outside the hall and millions heard
the chancellor'S appeal in a nation
wide radio broadcast.
The chancellor was tired and
hoarse from his campaign tour. But
he spoke sharply in an attack on
the Fascists (NaziS) supporting
Adolph Hitler for the presidency.
IF the Nazis live up to all their
promises, Germany will be in the
throeS of initiation forty-eight hours
after they ascend to power" Bruen-
ing said.
The chancellor demanded that the
Nazis reveal their program, espe-
cially as to whether they stand for
stable currency or initiation. He ac-
cuSed the Nazis of demagoguery by
promising everything to everybody"
to get control of the government.
Meanwhile, Hitler and the best of
the Nazi orators addressed large
meetings throughout the country.
THE vital decision hinges on
whether we stamp out information
aliSm, democracy, and pacifism in
Germany" the fiery Hitler shouted
at Dortmund.
Minor outbreaks of violence oc-
Cured during the closing stages of
the campaign.

In Commemoration of
Great Historic Events

Although the Dutch laid claim to
the Hudson River region in 1909 and
built a fort in 1913, some of the earl-
est, if not the very first, settlers were
fugitives from religious prosecutions
in France and Flanders, who obtained
permission from the Dutch to make
their homes in New Netherlands.
In 1924, as part of the observance
Of the terccntenary Of their arrival,
the United States issued the special
coin and also large-sized special post
age stamps of the denominations Of
1. 2 and 5 cents. All of these are
now priced and worth more than their
face value when in fine condition.
On various appropriate occasions
the government issues such commem-
orative coins. Some other special is
sues were called forth by the COM
memoration Of the one hundred and
fiftieth anniversary Of the discovery
of the Hawaiian islands in 1928; the
sesqui-centennial in 1926; commemora-
ton of the one hundred and fiftieth
anniversary of the battle Of Benning-
ton and independence of Vermont, in
1927; of the battles of Lexington and
Concord in 1926; the Monroe Doctrine
centennial in 1923; the Grant centen-
NAL in 1922; the Alabama and Mis-
souri, centennials in 1921, and the
three hundredth anniversary of the
landing of the Pilgrims in 1920.

Heron Apparently One
of Natures Favorites

The heron possesses a secret which
would be boon to women who like to
eat, but stand in fear Of the surplus
poundage overeating brings. The bird
is an incessant feeder, but no mat
ter how it gorges, it never seems to
become overplump. 1t usually stands
motionless in the water until its food
obligingly comes within range and
then with a swift dart of its long,
strong bill, it snatches its prey from
the water. It's favorite food is fish
or frogs, but it will eat insects, mead
ow mice or most anything else in the
fish or meat line.
The heron is much more common in
South America than in North Amer
lea, but such types as are found in
this country are fairly widespread.
The blue heron, usually called the
crane in error, is the most common
type. 1t usually nests in high trees
in inaccessible spots in swamp.
