1t is difficult to tell when an accident
card will be dealt to you. Always be
careful and avoid unnecessary dangers
and never take chance. A chance
should never be taken if an accident
is possible or life is involved.
Some people pride themselves on the
fact that they have taken chances and
accomplished unusual results in speed
ing or other adventures. 1t requires
only one accident to pass into eternity
if it is fatal, and you cannot afford to
take the chance.

bloodshed and the burning Of

The execution of Sir Roger
Easement, numerous Irish pa

Irish republic were sequels to this
uprising. Eamonn de Valera, then
a young Irish school teacher and

In all, 267 breweries are brewing
and bottling beer and paying taxes
on it. One hundred thirty of these
are selling beer. The other 1877 eth
er are in states where the sale has
not yet become legal or have not
yet worked out distribution plans.
In these hreweries, the beer is
tested regularly by one of DR.. Dor
ans agents, who uses an instrument
called an ebulliometer, a device for
determining the boiling point of the
beer. BY gauging the boiling point
of the brew and checking it against
the barometric pressure, it is posi-
BILE to arrive at a fairly accurate de-
termination of the alcoholic content.
Thus far, DR.. Doran said, no brew
cry has attempted to place on sale
beer of an alcoholic content greater
than the 80 per cent legal limit.
Nor has there been an instance of a
brewery attempting to evade full
payment of the tax.

EASTER Sunday, the most
L sacred date in the calendar of
the Christian church. also has
played an important part in the
worlds history.
The story of centuries is dotted
with major events that have oc-
Cured on this day-events far re-
moved from those of a religious
nature.
1t was on Easter Sunday in the
year 1913 that Ponce de Leon,
Spanish explorer, discovered Flor
ida while searching for the tabled
fountain of eternal youth He
named this balmy and Towering
area from the Spanish, Pascua
florida, or Easter flower
Easter Island, one of the quaint
Polynesian group in the far of
South Seas, gets its name from
the fact that it was discovered by
the Dutch Admiral Rogerveen on
Easter Sunday in 1922.
This island has aroused the
wonder of the scientific world be-
cause of the finding there of
traces of an ancient race that
erected huge stone monuments
and towers, remote from quarries,
ia a manner that never has been
explained.

BIZ Times Special
ANDERSON, Ind, April 12.-City
politics was in turmoil here today,
as Mayor Harry Baldwin fought the
attempts of Jesse H. Meilett to re-
gain his post as mayor.
First court action in the situa-
ton. which has caused sufficient
feeling to result in a downtown
parade by Baldwin supporters
Tuesday night, has been set for
April %. The court battle will be
based on injunction suits filed by
both parties.
Baldwin seeks an injunction to
prevent Mellett and the iatters
henchmen from interfering with
administration of city affairs, while
Mellett's suit seeks to halt Baldwin
from carrying out his duties pend
mig Melletts demand for reinstate-
ment for the Office.
MelIetts Daughter Ousted
Baldwin, named mayor by the city
council Jan. 3 on receipt of the
resignation Of Mellett, due to illness,
took the offensive Tuesday when he
ousted Mrs. Margaret Mellett Cole,
daughter of the former mayor, as
city controller.
Mellett retaliated with an order
to Francis Herman, city clerk, to no.
tify J. j. Netterville, who Baldwin
named as Mrs. Coles successor, that
he was dismissed and that John T.
Rock, hacker of Meilett, had been
appointed city controller.
Baldwin, in his suit, claims his
right to the office is based on three
facts. He said these are that the
office actually was vacant fourteen
months during Mellett's illness. that
Mellett resigned; ard that the coun-
Gil elevated him to the mayoralty
post.
Relatives Also Defendants
He also charges several Mel1ett
followers have entered into a con-
Splracy to prevent administration of
office by threats and intimidation.
Baldwin names Mrs Cole; Mellett's
brother, Lloyd; Charles J. NeilI.
former police chief, and Homer
Duke, discharged building commits
Sloner, as defendants.
Baldwin charges that. as a re-
suit Of the controversy, Neill threat
ened bodily harm to Police Chief
Joseph Carney. Tuesday
Anderson affairs apparently we're
operating smoothly until Monday
night, when Mellett appeared at
city hall in a wheel chair and left a
written demand for Baldwin to
vacate the office. With the demand
for office, Mellett also repudiated
his resignation presented the council
by Mrs. Cole
Indictment Can Be Revived
Mellett was under Indictment in
Indianapolis on charges of con-
Spiracy to violate the federal prohi-
blt1on law. These were dismissed
because of his illness. The charges.
however, can be filed again by the
| district attorney.
William Marine, city councilman.
named as one of the Mellett sup
porters, denied today any connection
with the former mayors move to re-
gain office.
Marine said he was attending to
business affairs at the city hall when
MeIiett appeared and was not one
OF the group with Mellett.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-Since
the depression set in, assets of finan-
cial institutions, such as insurance
companies, have shrunk alarmingly,
so much so that congress and state
legislatures have passed numerous
laws to keep the companies from
going on the rocks.
Yet the high-paid executives of
large mutual insurance companies
have found the depression mot so
bad"
Senator Arthur Robinson (Rep.,
Ind, has provided for the congress
sional Record an interesting tabu-
lation, showing that salary reduc-
tions, comparing 1929 to 1882, had
been made in the case of only three
of twenty-seven executives OF tiVe
leading companies.
Fifteen managed to get substan-
tial salary increases, and the re-
naming nine were drawing the
same salaries in 1882 that they were
in 1929.
Salaries Are Increased
Salary boosts were given all five
principal officers of the Equitable
Life Assurance Society, which COM
pany, incidentally, since has an

Murphy, vice-president, $4,000 to
$4,000; and D. A. Walker, vice
president, $17,187 to $4,000.

BANK REFORM
IDEAS CLASH;
BILL DELAYED
Sweeping Revision Certain;
Glass Measure Hit by
Strong Objections.
INSURANCE IS ONE SNAG
Safeguarding of Deposits
Feature Opposed Until
Further Study.
BY RAY TUCKER
Times SneciaI Writer

WASHINGTON. April 12.-Indefl-
mite delay and drastic revision Of
the banking reform bill framed by
the senate banking and currency
committee was foreseen today, as a
result Of apparent difference of
opinion between the Roosevelt adj
miniStration and congress on major
provisions
Although neither President Roose-
welt nor his senatorial COnfereeS
would discuss details, it is under
stood that the White House and
Secretary Woodin have numerous
objections to the bill drawn up by
Senator Garter Glass Dem, Va,
the senate'S financial expert. Fol-
lowing a conference Of the senator,
Woodin and the President, the plan
for immediate introduction and
passage of the measure was dropped.
Whereas Glass had drawn bill
containing deposits insurance pro-
visions, senators understood the
President and Woodin are opposed
to this feature, pending further
study.
Bankers Make Protest
Reports that $1,000 100000 liqui-
dating corporation would be formed
are said to have disturbed bankers
and they have protested.
Another administration fear is
said to center on the proposal for
severance of banks and their in
vestment affiliates. Although this
is one of the keystones Of the adj
ministration's permanent program
it has been suggested that this
would do away with agencies needed
for floating the tremendous bond
issues contemplated by the White
House.
The tentative bill calls for sever
ance in two years, whereas, it is said
Woodin thinks more leeWay should
be given.
The President has given the i'm
preston that he prefers to take two
or three bites at the banking
problem by means of several related
bills. The committee, however, has
prepared measure almost as
revolutionary as the federal reserve
act of the Wilson administration.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Roosevelt in
tends to retain emergency control
of the nations banks for some time
he is said to believe that haste
should be made slowly.
Glass Is Nettled
Both Democratic and Republican
members of the committee concede
that no bill can pass without adj
ministration support. They eX'
pect to meet in a day or two, Wher
Glass is expected to set forth the
changes desired by the White House
Woodin also may appear tC
describe the banking program whlcE
the administration wants. 1t is OBJ
vious that these new developments
have nettled Glass, who refuses tc
discuss the differences.
Meanwhile, a demand for quick
action has shown, itself in the SEN
ate. Several speakers, including
Democrats, insist that the treasury
display greater speed in reopenlne
closed banks in which, it is claimed
$4,000 100000 of purchasing power is
locked up.
They insist the defationary pro-
cess can not be stopped until this
money is brought back into the
market.
