A MOTHER Set-to with the
" Yankees is on the tapiS
~ for this afternoon.
Weaver will be shooting
for his nineteenth win of the
season, and tenth in a row
and against Vernon Gomez
the sensational soutkpaw, with
whom he is battling for the
pitching leadership OF the
league now held by Monte by a
percentage of 1888 as against
.76O. But it's doubtful If it will
exceed in popular interest the
exhibition scheduled for tomor-
row. Then the HaSbeenS will
tackle what some OF the fans
term the Neverwasers. Mean
ing Washington'S first pennant
winning team, the 1924 world
champions, will play the 1882
Nationals. It's a benefit for the
Bicentennial Sports Committee
and infirm, aged ball players.
So no amusement tax Will be
levied on tickets.
TOE CRONIN will be bossing
the current Griffmen, pit
- ting his wits against Harris
.Bucky again will be giving
orders to Walter Johnson who
will pitch for the old timers.
The hoy leader" not yet 70 at
the time, was the outstanding
figure of that set. He not only
played spectacularly af1eld, hit
for 1888 and led his team by
batting in seven runs, but out
smarted the games master
mind" the redoubtable John
McGraw. Buck once more Will
team at the keystone with
Peckinpaugh, also a star in that
set although getting into only
four of the seven games
through crippling leg injuries
:. Roger now is doing a swell
Job of leading the Cleveland
Indians, but has not been train
ing for this game. Wise old
Peck has been afraid he would
leave his fight in the gym
naSium."
THESE famous old double
play engineers will cavort

and Ossie Bluege at third: -.
Goslin and NcNeely will flank
Rice in the outfield. Earl now
is a manager, too, at Sacra-
mento, which makes four pilots
that famous outfit produced,
the others being Johnson, Har-
ris and Peck. And which
doesn't include Memo Leibold,
who recently laid down the
reinS at Columbus. Benny
Tate will lend assistance back
of the bat to Ruel. Muddy had
a tough time with his stick in
that series. Went through the
first six games without a SEM
blance of a safety. But came
through in the twelfth round OF
the final with a double that
paved tne way IOr IIle tdlly Il4dC

only world title. See you at

WORLD PEACE
PLAN OFFERED
Italy Would Wipe Off War
Debts; Drop Tariffs.
By United Press

BY Ontted Press
ROME, April 9-Italy advanced
a "five-year plan" for world peace
today, suggesting remuneration of
war debts and reparations, revisions
of peace treaties, elimination of
tariff barriers, and fewer inter-
national conferences.
The f1ve-year plan of dis
armament was sent to the League
of Nations. The other resolutions
were adopted by the Fascist grand
council in its capacity of supreme
advisory body of the nation.
The grand council met under the
presidency of Premier Benito Mus
solini. Its resolutions regarding the
world crisis, (which now has a
moral and political rather than
economic aspect" were:
The necessity of remuneration OF
reparations and cancellation of war
debts.
Suppression of restrictions of in
ternational trade before they re-
suit in the strangling Of trade OF
all countries.
Relief of the Danubian countries
representing 100000 inhabitants
Revision within the spirit of the
League of Nations of peace trea-
ties responsible for the restiveness
Of people which may cause. new
wars.
Remuneration of over-frequent
convocation of international con-
ferences raising the vain hopes OF
the people and increasing their diff
fculties

Politicians who couldn't see
Roosevelt a month ago now are
hedging previous bets because they
are convinced he will be nominated.
But instead of fading into the
background, and preparing to make
peace with his rival, Smith is dig
ging in, and throwing up new
breaStWorkS.
Even while the news wires brought
word of another Roosevelt sweep in
Wisconsin, Smith broadcast for at
least the third time an emphatic
denial that he was about to pull
down his flag.
He wrote to Democratic leaders
in Connecticut, Pennsylvania and
California denying that he was
stalking horse for any other can
didate.
Never Will Desert
Smith stressed a significant as
Sertion that he does not intend to
betray or desert his friends who are
working for him in several states.
Therein probably lies the key to
the strange course of Smith which
has mystified many. He may have
started out convinced he had real
chance to be nominated.
But he has become in fact prac-
tically a life-raft for a number of
Democratic politicians who for one
reason or another did not get on
the Roosevelt bandwagon. They
are clinging to him, urging him on.
Some of these politicians guessed
wrong months ago when Roosevelt
managers made their first overtures.
Some were squeezed out by hostile
factions in their respective states.
Some listened too seriously to the
whisperings from the Raskob-
Shouse management in the Demo-
cratic national committee which
anticipated earlier that Roosevelt
could be stopped, and the conven-
ton thrown into a deadlock in
which the party 'leaders" would
name the candidate.
Now Smiths fair weather friends
have fled, and the remaining old
guard has gathered around its
grizzled leader.
Party Drops 1928 Issues
In one of his letters, Smith said:
There is no difference between
me today and four years ago, when
I was nominated in the national
convention of the party on the first
ballot and secured for the party the
largest popular vote ever polled by a
defeated candidate"
The change is in the party. Pri-
mary after primary, convention
after convention, has shown that it
does not want to revive the issues
which wrecked it in 1928.
Roosevelt, for all of the superior
attitude which many politicians
adopt toward him, is polling a pri-
mary vote which is setting Demo-
cratic records. His combination of
organization and undenied popular
vote-getting ability have thrown
everything else into shadow.

WATER RATE BOOST
HELD UNJUSTIFIED
City'S Utility Committee Say
Compromises Fall Short
of Hopes.

while the new water rates in In
dianapoliS have some disappointing
features, there are, nevertheless, a
lowering of rates to large class of
small USERS" asserted a statement
issued today by the city'S utility rate
reduction committee, of which Wal
ter G. Rothermel is chairman.
These disappointing features"
the statement said, includes some
actual raising of rates, and which
this committee believes are I'M
warranted at this time.
THE lower rate is for the small
users who have been paying much
higher rate than other domestic
users, and the civil city gets a re-
duction on it's consumption suff1-
Gent to permit a reduction of l cent
on the tax levy.
Inadequacy Admitted
1.-THE electric rates are lowered
consistently throughout the list,
with no increases, permitting an
other reduction in the tax levy of
l cent on the part of the civil city,
a slight lowering for all domestic
consumers, with a substantial re-
duction for the adjoining suburban
consumers and establishing a uni
form basis Of charge for these users.
TN entering into these agree
nlentS 1--WE were aware the reduc-
lions lack considerable in meeting
what generally is considered justly
due the people of this city, not
merely in the present emergency,
but to satisfy common equity in
normal times.
Cost of Hearings Cited
"But the committe itself was
faced with grave questions. To
have forced public hearings on these
petitions would have involved
$4,000 expnense on the part of the
public service commission and the
utility companies, all of which
would have been charged to the op-
Grating expenses of the companies,
to be paid finally by the con-
SumerS."
John F. White is vice chairman
of the committee and George o..
Lehman, secretary.

She was greatly chagrined, and
tried several times to read the
rest of the letter.
Finally, Mrs. Hoover came to
the rescue and deciphered the

PLEA is VOICED
FOR VETERANS
Dependent KIN
Widows and Orphans
Should Have Preference,
Says Auxiliary Leader.

'Now is not the time for legisla-
ton concerning veterans" said Mrs.
Florence H. Becker of Louisville,
national president of the United
Spanish War Veterans auxiliary,
speaking Friday night at dinner
and reception given in honor Of
herself and George r. Lunn of
Schenectady, N. Y, national COM
mander-in- chief of the U. S. V. w.,
in the Claypool.
"Our organization stands first
for relief to widows and orphans
of veterans of all wars" Mrs.
Becker declared.
Mrs. Becker stated that bill
sponsored by the Spanish war or
ganIzation now is before congress,
and probably will pass both houses.
However, she said that President
Hoover seems sure to veto the legis-
lation.
1t was pointed out at the meet
ing that the widows and orphans
relief bill would cost the govern
ment approximately $11, 100000 over
a period of five years. Immediate
payment of the bonus would cost
$4,000 100000.
Il would not recommend this re-
lief to widows and orphans if it
were to endanger balancing of the
federal budget" said Lunn, public
service commissioner for New York
state, and formerly LieutenantG Gov
ernor under Alfred E. Smith. "The
tax on cosmetics alone would take
care of this item"
According to Mrs. Becker, who
recently visited Spanish war vet
Grams in twenty states, thousands
of veterans who are being well
taken care of in e hospitals know
their dependents are suffering.

Feeder Line for College
Cars Will Be Replaced
by Bus Service.

Dinky bonneville is dying.
Dinky is the plug trolley line that
runs from Twenty-seventh street
and College avenue to Thirtieth
street and Cornell avenue.
Drinks" service to a community
as the carrier of urchins for the
family's beefsteak ends at 1890
Monday morning.
So with this foregone death
scheduled, due to a public service
commission order abandoning the
line, youthful residents on the
rickety line are holding a wake to-
day and Sunday for "Dink."
Floral Offerings Made
They decorated "Dink" UP with
floral wreaths loaned by Betermann
Brothers, florists, and with scrawling
strokes hammered the wreaths with
the signs, In memory of Dinky
bonneville. A second wreath was
hung around the neck of Motor
man w. l.. Jones.
Jones takes "Dink" for his last
ride as Saturday night merrymakers
are homeward bound.
Pat Lynch, the other operator of
the car, will make his last rumbling
ride in the tram at p. m. Sunday
afternoon.
He will turn the controls over to
Jones' with a Good old Dinky" and
leave his pal of the year to Jones
to bury.
Bus Line to Take Place
A bus line, operating on a thirty
minute schedule, will take Drinks"
place in the neighborhood.
But the bus will never fill
Drinks" shoes. 1t can't. For it'll
cost money to ride the bus to and
fro, while "Dink' gave the neigh
Dor youngsters rides free.
All you had to do was to board
"Dink" and you rode. He never
asked you whether you were just
going down to the drug store at
Twenty-seventh and College for a
coke" or a bar of soap.
"Dink" minded his own business.
and that business was accommodate
ing you, if you lived in the neigh
borhood, and your children.
RattIes on Last Rides
He had seen many a rough Hal
loween night and enjoyed it as his
trolley winked off and on at pranks.
Twenty years of working gave
"Dink" rheumatism. His trolley had
neuritis. His tracks were cracking
like the bones Of any old man.
But as he feebly ratified on his
last rides today he heard the SEN
timental good-by of the neighbor-
hood. "Theren never be another
like "Dinky."

VETERAN GETS
BACK MEMORY
She'll Shocked Man Miss
ing II Years Recovering.

By United Press
PHILADELPHIA, April 9.-"Joe
Bond" the man without a
memory" today became Tobias
Burke, the man with a silent
memory"
Through the aid of DR.. George
Wilson, noted neurologist, the she'll
shocked World war veteran, who
disappeared from his Philadelphia
home nearly eleven years ago is
finding himself.
The man who knew himself as
Joe Bond Chicago gasoline
station owner, looked into the face
of DR.. Wilson and with the light of
slowly dawning memory identified
himself as Tobias Burke.
Burke is beginning to remember
his i'll mother, Mrs. Margaret
Burke, Sc, who wept when he failed
to recognize her ten days ago upon
his arrival from Chicago.
He has faint remembranceS of
his wife, Carrie, who has raised
his 11-year-old son, Jimmy, since
Burke's disappearance.
During the ten years he was
missing, the World war veteran
married another woman in Chicago.
They had one son. Then she died.
Burke was found by a wartime
pal who saw him one day on the
streets of st. Louis.
This friend and Burke got in
touch and with the Burke family
and David Burke, an older brother,
went to Chicago for Joe Bond
who denied he ever had been in
the war.

Battle Starts Monday
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, April 9.-The
fight for the bonus, which begins
before the house ways and means
committee Monday, is expected to
be one of the bitterest struggles of
this session of congress. Firm
stands of both proponents and OPP
ponents appear to have made any
compromise unlikely.
The 1895 World war veterans
who marched on the Capitol Friday,
waving flags and demanding a
bonus, undoubtedly made an impress
sion. Some believe their presence
made an even greater impression
than the recent statement by Henry
Stevens, commander of the Ameri-
can Legion, backing the Presidents
opposition to any bonus payment at
this time.
The Presidents opposition to the
Patnan bill, which provides i'm
mediate payment of the veterans
adjusted compensation certificates
through issue of around $4,000, 000,0 900
new currency, may make the pass
age of the bill more likely.
congressman doubtful of the wis
dom of the measure, but who be-
lieve that their votes on it will have
much to do with their success or
failure at the polls this year, may
vote yes and let the measure go to
Mr.. Hoover for almost certain veto.
Many witnesses are prepared to
testify before the hearings on both
sides of the question. General
Frank Hines, head of the veterans
administration, will be asked to
state position of the administration
and give data on veterans affairs.
Representatives of the Disabled
Veterans, Veterans of Foreign Wars
and the American Legion also are
expected to be among the witnesses.
