pound loaf here today, as result of
recent increased price of wheat and
other raw materials.
Local bakeries hiked wholesale
prices for a one pound loaf from
5 cents to cents, and one and one
half pound loaves from TX to 81
cents. Most independent retail
stores increased prices accordingly
to and 10 cents, according to
Charles Ehlers, local baking asso-
citation secretary.
Ehlers said the present price rise
was due entirely to raw material
price hikes. The new federal pro-
cessing tax of $138 barrel of flour
will become effective next Sunday
and may result in another half cent
increase in bread prices.
Cost of flour has advanced Is per
cent in the last twenty days, Ehlers
said.
He pointed out that the depart
ment of labor, in a recent bulletin,
stated Indianapolis had the lowest

Governor.

Governor Paul v. McNutt today
reiterated his stand on the question
of draught beer.
He is for it, at a nickle glass

Roosevelt Is Optimistic

By tHtted Press
WASHINGTON, July s. Presi-
dent Roosevelt, plunging into the
tasks of his Office again after his
sea-going vacation, indicated today
that he was confident that the
London economic conference would
survive its present impaSse.
At the same time it was made
clear that the President intends to
stand unf1inchingly by his decision
not to enter into a sterilization
agreement at this time and intend,1
to follow 2 three-point currency
program.
The program:
l. The United States is not ready
to export gold.
z. 1t is not ready to enter into
agreements looking to the creation
of sterilization fund.
3. 1t is not ready for u stabiliza-
ton fund
The Presidents optimism over the
future OF the conference was in
contrast to the gloom prevailing at
London. He appeared hopeful of
success of the world meeting after
holding a significant Atlantic
telephone conversation shortly be-
fore noon with Secretary CordeIl
Hull, delegation head.
On the question as to whether
the United States would revise its
Sterilization stand to prevent the
threatened conference breakup, it
was learned that no such steps
were contemplated, the administers
ton feeling that present difficulties
will be surmounted and the various
conferees will get down to the
problems of the agenda.

Girls Ideals Change Rapidly in Four
Years, Teachers Learn.
By United Press
CHICAGO, July 5.-When a girl
enters college her trusted confdant
is her mother, but by the time she
has finished, it usually IS her boy
friend, the nations teachers were
told at their annual convention
Tuesday.
This was the finding of Opal
Lynn, research worker of Iowa State
college, who told the sociological
section of the National Education
Association of her efforts to dis
cover how girls ideals and atti-
tudes change during college life.
The study was made at Iowa State.
Freshman girls confde most
often in their girl friends" said
Miss Lynn, but they prefer their
mother as conf1dant. When they
are seniors, however, the boy friend
tends to be the recipient of their
condolences"
She told of other changes that
four years of college lie brings.
Freshman girls wanted to have a
career followed by marriage. Senior
girls had dropped the career idea
and wanted marriage most of all.

DISSOLvESM MILK
WAR INJUNCTION
Judge Cox Voices Urgent
Need for Strict Contract
on Hauling.

Urgent need for a strict and
binding contract between milk
haulers and milk producers" was
voiced today by Circuit Judge Earl
r. Cox when he dissolved a tempo
rary order restraining the Indian
apolis Dairy Producers Council
from interference with twenty-one
distributors and the Polk Sanitary
Milk Company.
AS a sequel to the circuit court
refusal to make the order perma-
nent, a joint committee of the pro-
ducers and haulers will meet this
afternoon with Lieutenant Governor
Clifford M. Townsend in an effort
to iron out the tangled milk situa-
ton.
The question involved in the in
junction petition, Cox held, hinges
on the difference between vested and
inherent rights.
The haulers," Cox held, were
operating only under an inherent
right, or the right any one has to
make a living, and not under a
vested right, or one conferred by
law.
The court finds no vested right,
but only contract at WILL and
finds further there were no overt
acts OF duress or violence.
Farmer producers are not obi
gated to use the haulers and are
free to obtain milk transportation
from another agency"
Cox fixed the appeal bond at 500
when Sidney Miller, attorney for the
haulers, indicated an appeal to the
supreme court is likely.
The haulers had charged the pro-
ducers' council with intimidation in
attempting to gain control of milk
collection routes.

Two Nations to Issue State.
ment Outlining Their
Accord.
TRY TO SAVE FARLEY
New Roosevelt Orders to
Delegates, Unsatisfactory
to Gold Nations.
BY HARRY FLORY

LONDON, July 5. - With
the fate of the world econo-
mic conference hanging in
the balance, the United States
and Great Britain agreed to-
night on a joint statement
which, it was expected, would
bear vitality on whether the
conference is to adjourn or
attempt to continue.
After State Secretary Cordell Hull
had talked by Atlantic tele-
phone with President Roosevelt, he
conferred for forty-five minutes
with Prime Minister j. Ramsay
Macdonald, president of the con-
ference. Professor Raymond Moley
and Senator Key Pittman attended
the conference.
When it ended, Hull told the
United Press an agreed statement
would be issued at p. m. q p. m,
Indianapolis time).
Farley Again in Danger
President Roosevelt's suggestions
on how the world economic confer
ence might continue its work prev
iously today were regarded as de-
cidedly unsatisfactory by members
of the conference steering commit
tee.
The Presidents new suggestions,
before being made public today,
were conveyed to members of the
conference individually and infor-
mally.
Committee members later advised
Hull that unless the President had
something more to offer, they felt
the best solution was adjournment,
with the exception of a few eco
nomic subcommittee.
The conference thus again was in
danger of adjournment, despite the
strenuous efforts of the United
States, backed by the British domin-
ions, to prevent it.
Roosevelt Holds to Stand
1t was reported that new instruc-
tons from the President to the
delegates were even flrmer than his
telegram of Monday which brought
the conference to the verge of coll
lapse.
1t is believed Mr.. Roosevelt re-
iterated unswervingly that settle
ment of the currency question is not
essential to the conferences other
and vitality important tasks and
would urge the conference to get
down to work on economic ques-
lions.

RELEASE OF
JAKE FACTOR
IS EXPECTED
Hopes Revived After Break
in Negotiations With
KidnaperS.
WIFE NERVOUS WRECK
Son Believes Father Making
Ransom Arrangements
With CaptorS.
BY ROBERT T. LOUGHRAN
United Press staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, July Slopes fol
early return of John Jake the
Barber) Factor, held by a kidnar
gang for ransom reported to exceed
100000, were revived today with
passage of the Fourth of July holi-
day and weekend, during which
negotiations came to a halt.
While Factors wife, once described
as Europes best dressed woman
was in nervous collapse from worry
and anxiety, friends still believed
the former Halsted street bootblack
who assembled the peaks of British
financial operations, was dealing
with the abductors himself and
would win his freedom.
Mrs. Factor collapsed Tuesday,
the third day after her husband was
seized, while she and Factors 49,
year-old son, Jerome, looked on.
Son Is Confident
Young Factor believed his father
was attempting to convince his kid
napers that he would pay the ran
som after he is released.
Father never broke his word to
anybody" Jerome pointed out, con-
f1dent that his father was I'M
harmed and being treated with re-
Spect.
Jerome recalled his experience
less than three months ago when,
for eight days, ne was in kidnapers'
hands. At that time the elder Fac
tor remarked he wished it was he
who had been taken, expressing
confidence that he would be able
to effect his release.
Reiterating that neither he nor
his mother, Mrs. Leonard Marcus,
Factors first wife, nor Factors
present wife has access to Factors
securities. Jerome explained his
father probably was attempting to
convince the gang that the family
and friends were unable to raise
more than a modest" ransom.
All Was Fake, Belief
Jerome concluded that a tele-
phone call he received last Sunday
night asking $4,000 ransom and
promising to furnish instructions for
payment was not from a member of
the gang. No more calls have been
received, he said.
Friends of the family pointed to
Mrs. Factors collapse as proof
of a theory advanced by skeptics
that the kidnapping was staged
so Factor could escape hearings on
his eXtradition to England.
He is wanted here on charges of
having Swindled Londoners of
100000 in numerous financial en-
terprises he sponsored there several
years ago.

His hands and arms will also be
free to unsnarl traffic tie-ups.
The new regulation will not APP
ply to night traffic direction, at
first, as the old traffic standard
with red and green lights will be
used. However, if the system
proves satisfactory, food lights
will be set on downtown buildings
to spot" the traffic officer.

James blasted for his tonsils Tues
day night with "dud" firecracke1

Smoking at the tender age of 13

was a cigaret, but the cracker
wasn't dead-it just was quiescent

had been interesting, if not what
could be termed successful.
Marvellous technique, couldn't have
done better myself" one doctor was
quoted as saying to another, but he
was suspected Of having his tongue
lodged firmly in his cheek.
The official announcement was

James received a dosage of tetanus
