CARN|SHEE FOES
FACING FAILURE
Suits to Set Aside Orders
Will Be Dismissed,
Say Attorneys.

Efforts of garnishee suits de-
PENDANTS to set aside court orders
which have deducted 10 per cent
of their incomes for many months,
probably will meet with failure, &C
cording to opinions given by local
attorneys.
Suits for vacating the garnish-
ment orders and also seeking to re-
cover money held by the sheTiff's
office in partial settlement of the
claims, appear to be contrary to the
state statute creating municipal
courts, it is said
The statute provides that munich
pal judges may set aside judgments
on petitions filed in the same court
term that the order Was issued
Since majority of the orders were
issued prior to the present court
term, and the annulment suits
were filed in later term, the legal
issue is defined clearly and the de-
cision is apparent, according to at
torneys who have studied the cases.
Neither Dan v. White nor Thomas
E. Garvin, municipal judges, have
indicated their ruling which is ex-
pected prior to the latters resigna-
ton, May /, to re-enter private
practice.
Several weeks ago Garvin and
White issued joint ruling holding
the garnishee law unconstitutional
Previously, for several months, no
punishment orders had been issued
from their courts while test case
was in process of decision.
Payments were accepted by the
sheriff's office, however, on judg-
ments in force prior to the ban by
the judges.
Several thousand dollars are held
by the sheriff awaiting ruling of the
municipal judges regarding dispo-
sition of the money.

ASK MILK FOR
THOUSANDS OF
CITY CHILDREN
Widespread UndernouriSh-
ment Is Revealed in Sur
vey by Health Officers.
BASKETS NOT ADEQUATE
Danger of Tuberculosis Is
Stressed by Dr.. Morgan
in Report.

Several thousand small children
in Indianapolis are undernourished
as result of improper diet and lack
of milk, many of them in tubercu-
lar families, according to results of
a survey conducted by DR.. Herman
G. Morgan, city health officer.
Report on several hundred fami-
lies investigated by the health board
school nurses was to be submitted
by DR.. Morgan to Miss Hannah A.
Noone, Center township trustee, to-
day or Wednesday in an effort to
obtain more milk for these cases.
In practically every case, the
family is receiving a poor relief
basket from the trustee, but the
food in the baskets is not adequate
or of the proper type for families
with undernourished children, DR.
Morgan said.
Examples Are Cited
In some instances, he explained,
the families are receiving one or two
quarts of milk a day through the
trustee, but more is needed.
He cited one instance of a family
with six children, ranging from IA
months to IA years, which is getting
two quarts of milk daily but needs
seven, as the children are under
nourished, the 14-year-old girl
weighing only 81 pounds.
Several other cases where families
with several small children, all
underWeight and some OF the chill
dren incipient tuberculosis sufferers,
were pointed out.
Lasting Harm Is Faced
providing the proper amount and
type of food for 10000 INDECENT
families is a tremendous task" Nor
gan said.
THE biggest trouble is that diets
which may be adequate for adults
are not suited to growing children.
Provision of plentiful supply OF
milk is necessary in these families
or these children will suffer in
estimable harm of lasting effect. Not
only in there danger of widespread

icable diseases, but the childs phys

BRITONS' FATE

Trial Ends in Burst of
Drama as One of Six
Admits Guilt.
EXPECT EARLY VERDICT
Five EngIiShmen, Facing
Death Penalty, Hold to
Innocence Claims.

United Press stan Cnrrespondent

OCTOBER HALL, MOSCOW,
April 18-The fate Of six Britons
and eleven Russians charged with
high crimes against the Soviet state
was placed in the hands of three
judges today when their trial
reached its end, A verdict was eX-
pected late tonight.
The trial eliminated in a burst
Of drama as William Macdonald,
partly crippled British subject,
limped hesitantly to the fore and
bowed his head in confession of
guilt.
The Russians despairingly did the
same, but the five other Britons, all
facing possible death sentences,
stoutly maintained their innocence.
The judges, after a brief retire
ment, returned to the room with all
the documents in the case, and the
room then was locked in accord
ance with the law.
Second Confession Made
Macdonald made his second con-
fession when called upon for his
final statement,
II confessed my guilt" he said.
I have nothing more to add"
When he sat down, the court
called upon John Cushney, another
of the Englishmen.
Il will leave this court room as
honest man as When I entered
it, Cushney declared.
Charles Nordwall was the third
Englishman called to the bar to
give his last word a privilege the
Soviet law grants all defendants.
Il am innocent" Nordwall said.
Il still am friend of the Soviet
Union, and l am not afraid to say
this in the presence of the press.
The court only can acquit me after
considering the evidence"
Allan Monkhouse was called next.
AS Russian chief of the British Met
ropolitan- Vickers Company, he is
the business superior of his country
men.

confession that was attributed to

liminary examination that he con-
Quoted espionage activities under

cial of his company. He repudiated
the confession during the trial.

beginning he said, and repeat it
now. The entire evidence against
me is unreliable"
