ponds ultimately upon the existence
of a conspiracy" Judge Treanor's
opinion declares.
In view of our understanding Of
the facts alleged in the appellants
complaint and our construction of
the law as applied thereto, the COM
plant fails to show any unlawful
acts committed by defendants.
las we construe the complaint, it
shows that the public charitable
trust has not been impaired in any
degree and the binding legal rela-
tionship, voluntarily entered into, as
disclosed in the complaint, refute
the existence of the alleged "un-
lawful subject of accord"
The trial court did not err in
sustaining the demurrer to the
plaintiffs complaint" the opinion
concludes, after pointing out that
the trial court also ruled correctly
in striking out portions of the EVIL
dence.
The allegations in the plaintiffs
complaint must have tested the jul
dicial credulity of the trial Judge, -
the opinion states. Other points
settled in the decision are the va
hdity of the lease between the
Citizens Gas Company and the In
dianapolis Gas Company for use of
the latter's property, and the right
of the public service commission to
approve the transaction.

Marinus Van der Lubbe, "a, was
sentenced to death by hanging to-

Slumped down in his chair, NOR

Lubbe, the Dutch stone mason who
proved an enigma throughout the
trial, heard the supreme court YER

The four acquitted were Ernest

Georg Dimitroff, effervescent ex-
leader of the Bulgarian Communist
party; Wassail Taneff, SO, Bulgarian
shoemaker. and Blagoi Popoff, 81,
Bulgarian student.
They showed less emotion than
those packed in the dingy, dark
courtroom to see the end of trial
that may take a place among the
most famous of modern times.
Torgler's mother and wife were
in the front row. The others were
without relatives or friends in the
courtroom.
None was actually freed. Torgler
voluntarily gave himself into pro-

the disposition of police as we'll as

QUERY UNANSWERED

refused to be interviewed today.
At the weather bureau it was said
today that the good old forecaster
had gone into a huddle with him
self and decided against a predic-
ton for the weather on Christmas
day.
All inquiries as to whether In
dianapolis would have white
Christmas" fell on deaf ears.
1--WE received no forecasts for In
diana, Ohio or Kentucky in the re-
leases from Washington today"
said a representative of the weather
man. The weather is too unset
tied in these parts and the fore
caster wasn't riSking his alleged

POPE BLASTS
At NAzIS FOR
STERILIZATION
Hitler Theory Is Severely
Scored by Catholic
Spiritual Head.
REPEATS FORMER VIEWS
Beyond Rulers Powers
His Holiness Asserts in
EncycIiCaI.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
VATICAN CITY, Dec. 23.-In an
encyclical directed to the Catholic
church throughout the world, in
commemoration of the Christmas
season, Pope Plus today severely
scored the theory of mass steriliza-
ton on imperfect humans. as
planned by the Hitler government in
Germany.
His allusion to the sterilization
law, he said. was undertaken with
extreme repugnance, but he de-
clared it necessary to speak lin
order to satisfy the expectations"
of the clergy and laity.
His views, the pope added, had
been made clear in his encycHcal
of 1880 on Cast Conubi" dealing
with matrimony, in which, he said,
we already have said everything
that must be done and considered
on sterilization"
Action Not Unexpected
This word, sterilization" he con-
tinued, denotes the experiments
already carried on in faraway coun-
tries. Hence it is not without prep
aration that it has been made the
object of legislative action
In the pope's encyclical of 1880,
he had declared:
Magistrates have no direct power
over the bodies Of their subjects.
Therefore, when no crime has taken
place, they can never directly harm
or tamper with the integrity of the
body, either for reasons of eugenics,
or any other reasons"
Referring to international affairs,
the pope related the story of
great banker who, when asked his
opinion of the financial situation,
replied, Il can have no opinion"
Urges Prayer Against War
"'Then what do you think of all
this?' he was asked, and his reply
was 'nothing-in my opinion, no.
body can know anything
And that is all we can say on
our own account" Pope Plus added.
The pope recalled that three
times, Napoleon had replied money
when he was asked what was the
first and greatest necessity in order
to make war.
I'm order to prevent war he said.
I'VE, too, have a word thrice US
able, namely pray"
The pope then declared that it
had been expected he would refer to
international worldly affairs, but
that in these uncertain times, very
little could be said which would go
toward solving the great problems.
