At the Alamo

George O'Brien will be seen in his
newest Zane Grey picture, The Last
Trail" starting Saturday for a three
day run at the Alamo.
The story deals with a band OF
eastern gangsters and racketeers,
who attempt to apply the pay-off
system" on ranchmen.
Most of the action takes place on
a luxurious passenger train, a court
room and a pretentious dude ranch.
While O'Brien plays the role of
fearless and romantic son of the
wide open spaces, much comedy is
injected by Ell Brendel, as the vests
most dangerous killer.
Claire Trevor, beautiful blond, has
the chief feminine role.
Fox Pictures have included an
elaborate cast including Frank Nc
Hugh, Lucille La Verne, j. Carol
Mash, George Reed and Ruth War
rem.
In addition to the feature will be
the Buck Jones serial. Both are first
run pictures.

TINE following hand is a good in
Il dication of the championship
play that often is called upon to
fulfill dangerous contract.
In rubber bridge game, neither
side vulnerable, Mrs. Green Fenley
Jr., of Cincinnati, received the hand
with the $50 aces. Here's how she
bid and played it:
Mrs. Fenley bid no-trump, East
went to two spades, South doubled
and Mrs. Fenley went to three no
trump.
South's double of two spades
shows that is the suit with which
he would have responded if East
had not bid it before him. Mrs.
Fenleys bid of three no trump was
rather optimistic.
East opened the king Of hearts
and continued hearts, North refuS-
ing to win until the third round.
Two small spades were discarded
from dummy.
A small club was won in dummy
with the king and a club returned,
in the hope of breaking the club
suit. But East showed out, dis
carding a spade.
DECLARER won the trick with
- the ace. A small diamond was
led and won in dummy with the
queen and the king of diamonds re-
turned. East dropped the jack. De-
clarer then led the queen of clubs
and East let go another spade.

National C. of C. President
Addresses Credit Men.

Henry I. Hartman, president of
the Chamber Of Commerce of the
United States, speaking before the
indianapolis Association of Credit
men at the Columbia Club Friday
night, urged strict supervision of
business by business, with the gov
eminent acting as umpire, as the
possible system to succeed the
strict government control during
the present emergency.
Since its inception, the Chamber
of Commerce of the United States
has opposed unwarranted interfer-
ence of government with business, p
he said. 1--WE all know that an
emergency exists today and that
government is attempting to exer-
wise a proper function by rendering
a service to business which can not
be provided adequately by indi-
vidual initiative"

PROTEST VOICED
IN NATURAL GAS
LINE PROPOSAL
Officials Object to Plan as
Detrimental to City'S
Interests.

Opposition of city and utility dis
trict officials was voiced to the
public service commission yesterday
against the petition Of the Indiana
Gas Service Corporation for per-
mission to bring natural gas into
the city.
Competition resulting from the
natural gas lines would be detri-
mental, they asserted, to interests
Of the Citizens Gas Company, the
purchase of which is sought by the
utility district through a proposed
federal 100000 loan.
1t was pointed out in the objec-
ton that, if deemed feasible. the
municipally-owned gas company will
arrange for natural gas through its
own mains.
1T would be grossly destructive Of
the values Of the property of the
Citizens Gas Company and detri-
mental to the interests of the gen.
eral community to have a duplicat-
ing set of mains beneath the streets
OF the city for the purpose of selling
to the general public natural gas in
competition with that furnished by
the Citizens Gas Company" the OBJ
lection declared.
SignerS of the objection are
Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan, Henry
l.. Dithmer, chairman of the utility
district directors; William ].
Mooney, chairman of the utility
board trustees; the law firms of
Smith. Remster, Hornbrook and
Smith, and Thompson, Rabb and
Stevenson; Edward H. Knight, cor
poration counsel, and James E.
Deery, city attorney.

poration petition will be heard Nom

U. S. BOARDS
BATTLE OVER
NRA RESULTS
Recovery Heads Deny Fed
eraI Reserve Charge Codes
Retard Industry.

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. pa spir-
tied defense was made today by adj
ministration spokesman against a
charge by the federal reserve board
that the application of codes and
processing taxes had retarded in
dustrial activity.
On one side of the dispute were
treasury and federal reserve Off
Gals. On the other were chieftains
Of the recovery and agricultural
programs. Their official state
mentS scarcely reflected the con-
troversy behind the scenes. The
prospect that President Roosevelt
might be asked to clarity the con-
troversy was not farfetched.
Recovery Administrator Hugh S.
johnson asserted the industrial
situation was just the reverse of
that pictured in the reserve boards
statement.
Based on Statistics
Agriculture Secretary Henry A.
Wallace countered the boards
charge by blaming the recession
on the industries themselves.
Reserve board officials stood firm.
They pointed out their statement
was based on research and statistics.
Their weekly bulletin came out last
night, saying there had been a de-
cline in industrial activity.
What aroused Johnson and Wal
lace was the statement that the de-
cline had been marked in those in
dustries in which processing taxes
and codes have become effective re-
Gently"
Johnson Makes Statement
Rejoinders came quickly. John
son telephoned E. A. GoldenweiSer
editor of the bulletin. Sharp words
were exchanged Then the MIRA
ground out statement.
It said GoIdenweiser had assured
Johnson the charge was "inadvert-
ent." Instead Goldenweiser said the
bulletin was based on statistics.
Johnson elaborated Practically
every major industry has been op-
Grating under a code since August
Those not under codes have been
operating under presidential re-
employment agreements in which
the provisions were usually much
stricter than the codes. And yet
with the exception of the steel in
dustry, every report we have re-
ceived from major industries has
shown a definite upward trend" "

Alleged Agent of Hitler
Disappears.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-George
Medalie, United States attorney, to-
day held a warrant for arrest of
Heinz Spanknoebel, alleged Nazi
propaganda leader in the United
States, who disappeared last Wednes-
day.
The warrant is based on a law
which prohibits any one from acting
as an agent of a foreign govern
ment in the United States without
being a diplomatic representative,
and without notifying the state de-
partment of his actions"
Publication of Spanknoebels ac-
tivities in German-American papers
led to the action. Spanknoebel's
claims of being a Hitler agent makes
him subject to arrest under the war
time law. He faces a five-year
prison sentence if convicted.

ACTIVITY IN GARY
eREATEST IN YEARS.
Steel Min Force Now 80 Per
Cent of Total During
Boom Days.
By the Associated Pres.

By the Associated Press.
GARY, Ind, August 3.-With $4,000
workers daily trudging to work in
Gary's steel mills, this industrial sector
is humming with greater activity than
1t has known for more than three years.
These $4,000, representing force
about 80 per cent of that employed
during the boom days before the 1929
crash are not working as long hours
or making as much money as they were
then. But they are working-and
predominant note of optimism is re-
flected in the stores and on the streets.
Re-employment under the national
recovery act as put into effect inde-
pendently by the Illinois Steel Co. has
sent back to the mills about 1000
workers in recent weeks. When the
code is put into effect for all Gary steel
plants another 1000 is expected to find
Unemployment, officials say.
Ofhcials warned. however, that no
matter how great the Unemployment
surge in coming weeks, Gary will be
out any influx of job-seekers from out
side, for while the poor relief rolls have
been cut down greatly from the de-
preston peak of $4,000, there still are
$4,000 on the rolls and plenty of work
ers still waiting their chance at the
forges and furnaces.
Meanwhile the Inland Steel Co.'S
plant in neighboring Indiana Harbor
reported its total pay roll in dollars
had been tripled and. in personnel more
than doubled in the last six months.
It's wage scale, officials said, IS in con-
formity with its N r. A. code fled
three weeks ago, though its hours of
work have not been adjusted as yet
to that code.
