BONUS TROOPS

'JuSt as Soon Starve Here
as at Home Says
Their Commander.

~ tuifcd Press
WASHINGTON, June 24.-The
main forces Of the bonus army held
their ground today against renewed
efforts Of authorities to start them
on "a homeward retreat.
Pelham Glassford, police superin-
tendent, in a formal statement
warned the veterans that their food
fund was down to $4,000 and that
contributions had fallen off to al
most nothing.
Commander Walter Waters Of the
bon army retorted that Eve might
as well starve here as at home"
Waters admitted slight defections
from his forces Fifty-five men
started home Thursday.
In addition to warning of the
threatened food shortage, Glass
ford said bonus contingents &C.
cupying old government buildings
soon would have TO move.
He forbade any more of them to
move to Camp Mcigs, a tract where
health officials have declared con-
dltions TO be insanitary
Waters Immediately issued a re-
ply 20 the police official, saying.
We will stay here until we
starve or get our bonus. We might
as well starve here as at home.
We believe the country will SUD-
port us and that congress will be
forced into extra session unless the
federal government feeds us. If
We are forced from our barracks,
We Will march to Camp Meigs and
occupy that regardless of General
Glassford's orders to the contrary.

them committed, is one of the most
serious and reprehensible moral
crimes of which a member of the
bar can be convicted.
The applicant by serving his
sentence has paid the penalty which
the law imposed for the crime which
he committed and no further pen
atty for the crime can, or should,
be enforced. But the serving of a
penal sentence does not auto
matically restore moral character"
Martins opinion then continues
to point out that, in his judgment,
Holt is untitled both by character
and legal qualifications for read
mission, since the latter have been
raised since he was disbarred.
Holt was somewhat of a public
figure in the G. o. P. back in the
heyday of the Ku-Klux Khan in
Kokomo.

Julius G, Travis, David A. Myers and
Curtis w. Roll. The latter comes

DOTH Republicans and Demo-
ID Gratis are viewing the special
session which begins July 7 with as
much pleasure as Schmeling gets
out Of the decision in the fight with
Sharkey.
Republican leaders feel that they
are handicapped, in that Lieu
tenant Governor Edgar D. Bush
will be boss of the senate. That
body has the final word on all tax
legislation, which must originate in
the house, and it is betraying no
secrets to say that Bush, although
he claims to be loyal Republican,
doesn't feel so kindly toward his
party after being turned down for
the Governor nomination.
Quite naturally, as his friends say,
he will strain no muscle or exert any
great effort to come to the aid Of
his party and help lead it toward
victory in November
The Democrats are in the same
boat.
Speaker Walter Myers of the
house also is defeated candidate.
His bid for the United States sena-
torial nomination was turned down
Tuesday and his state of mind, they
tell me, is not so enviable.
Myers feels that, because of his
services to the party in the past,
he should have been accorded the
nomination Which is exactly what
Bush thinks.
But the Democratic house has two
recourses, which the Republican
senate is without,
In the first place the Lieutenant
Governor is e-eo.ed H.. ..u
while the house Speaker is elected
for the session.
Based on this theory, Democratic
leaders believe that they can elect
a new Speaker to succeed Myers
when the special session convenes.
They give as their authority Sec.
10 of Art. of the state Constitu-
ton, which declares:
Each house, when assembled,
shall choose it's own officers, the
president of the senate excepted"
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-06-24

The president Of the senate is the
Lieutenant Governor.
Under their Interpretation, this
would mean that the house will
proceed to organize anew when con-
vened.
That the Democrats will control
the house is a foregone conclusion,
for even with those who resigned to
take conflicting Offices, counted out,
that party will have more than
seventy members to approximately
twenty-four Republicans.
Party leaders expect to obtain
pledges from at least fifty-fve mem
bers to go through on set pro-
gram, so that even if Myers is re-
tanned the strength and power of his
gavel will be nil in the face Of so
large sized majority, which is the
second plan.
Bush, on the other hand, will find
that a good proportion Of the
twenty-nine Republicans may form
a coalition with the nineteen Demo-
cratic senators to thWart any move
he may set in operation.
The Democrats also face the prob
lem Of selecting a new floor leader,
because Representative DELPHI Nc
Kesson Of Plymouth was defeated
for the senatorial nomination, and
is not expected to take as keen an
interest in the special session pro-
gram as if he were up for election
in November.
All this is believed to lead to fire
works at the caucuses the night Of
July 6.
There may be nice show for the
boys.

EX-PRISONER'S
LAW PRACTICE
PLEA ASSAILED
Justice Says Serving Term
Did Not Restore Hollis
Mora Character.

Serving Of a penal sentence does
not automatically restore moral
character"
This AKIN is taken from dis
senting opinion handed down by
Justice Clarence r. Martin of the
supreme court today in which he
violently objects to the readmission
to the bar Of DIN r. Holt Kokomo.
Holt was reinstated to practice by
the supreme court Thursday by a
three to two vote. The other dis
senting justice was Judge Walter
E. Treanor, who also handed down
dissenting opinion today.
Served Prison Term
Holt was disbarred after being
convicted by the federal government
of forming an association to furnish
legal protection to bootleggers. He
served term in the federal peni-
Tertiary at FIT. Leavenworth, Kan.
His readmission to practice was
opposed by the Howard County Bar
Association.
Citing the findings Of the federal
court, which sets out that Holt
formed the Hoosier Protective Asso-
citation, with a former Howard
county deputy sheriff as solicitor,
to protect bootleggers from the law,
Martins opinion comments:
ut is apparent that at the time
he committed the crime, the ap-
plicant was a man of bad moral
character and his actions, which
led to his conviction were wholly
devoid of professional honor and
integrity.
