CHICAGO, March 6.-(UP)-
Plainclothes men in bullet-proof

side today in an intensive search
for John Dillinger, desperate. In

here from the Crown Point, Ind,

The hunt began yesterday after
the automobile of Sheriff. Lillian

found. Detective Lorimer Hyde re-
ported that he had pursued the
automobile late Saturday unsuc-

License plates on the automo-
bile revealed that the first warn

automobile because it bore 1ndi-

plates did not agree with the de-

because of heavy traffic.

EARLY House
PASSAGE SEEN
FOR MEASURE
Will Forbid Reduction Of
Wages From Levels Now
in Force
INDUSTRY WARNS 1T
WILL FIGHT CHANGE

WASHINGTON. Mar. 6. CUP
The House labor committee, by
unanimous vote, today reported
favorably the Conner 3O-hour-
week bill.
Committee members said they
would drive for early house pass
age.
1t is predicted that in view of
President Roosevelt's request al
his MIRA speech for shorter hours
and increased industrial wages, it
would win wide support.
The bill establishes a 3O-hour
week in all industry but provide
exemptions in emergency cases
and prohibits the worker from be-
ing employed on "side jobs
which would increase his income.
1t also prohibits wage decreases
from present levels.
WASHINGTON. Mar. G. (UP)
Industry served notice last night
that it will fight a general reduc-.
ton in working hours as proposed
by President Roosevelt. Such
reduction would seriously hinder
economic recovery and prove de
structive, a spokesman said,
Facing thousands of code au-
thorities representing 95 per cent
of American industry, R. E. Elan
ders, a member of the industrial
recovery board, the agency which
represents business in the MIRA,
emphasized that shorter hours
limit production. disruption and
enjoyment of goods.
He agreed that a selectlve
shortening of hours is possible in
industries which meet decrease
in demand and desire to spread
work.
"What we have to do is to be
certain that the measures taken
to insure relief do not prevent re-
covery," Flanders warned. lie
proposed instead of the shorter
work week, a revised CWA which
would give assurance that no IN
dustrial workers "in good times
or in bad, shall go without useful
work. at such wages as shall or
the one hand insure him and his
dependents food, clothing and
shelter and on the other give HIM
the incentive to get back into pri-
vate employment at the earliest
opportunity"
Flanders spoke after Secretary
of Labor Perkins. Chairman Rob
ert F. Wagner of the national la
Dor board and William Green,
president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor and a member
of the labor board had urged the
necessity of shorter work week
and higher minimum wages to az,
sorb millions of unemployed and
increase the workers purchasing
power.
Secretary Perkins said real
progress had been made during
the year toward solving the un.
employment problem, but pointed
out that there still remain from
100000 to 100000 workers to
be absorbed in the re-employmen5

FRIENDLY GESTURE

THE United States congress will do a
graceful and gracious thing if it fol-
lows President Roosevelt's suggestion and
orders returned to Canada the official mace
of the parliament of Ontario, captured in
the War of 1872 and now held at the United
States Naval Academy at Annapolis.
AS the President points out, for more than
a century these two countries have main
tanned a completely unarmed and unforti-
fled border; and no man in his senses sup
poses that the next century will bring any
change in this policy.
Whatever passions the War of 1872
aroused have died out generations ago, and
any action that would help extinguish the
last memories of bitterness would be a good
one.
This mace does the people of the United
States no good; it is doubtful if one Ameri-
can in 10000 even knows his government
possesses it.
To return it would be to emphasize the
enduring solidarity of the friendly relations
between the two nations

THE BIG TEST

IF you know what the future of the battle
= ship is going to be. the experts of the
1885 naval conference probably will give you
a job.
Battleships have been ignored by naval
conferences ever since the historic Washing
ton conference of 1921. With two or three
exceptions, no battleShips have been launched
since then. The naval competition of the past
decade has been in cruisers and auxiliary
craft.
Next year, however. there is to be a new
conference, and the battleship will cut big
figure. a strong move to cut down bsttleShip
sizes has begun Japan. it is said, would limit
such craft to $4,000 tons England would cut
them to $4,000 tons, some smaller powers
would reduce them to 10000
Only the United States would keep the
figure where it is now-at $4,000 tons
Back Of all this difference Of opinion are
certain strategic considerations. of course: but
the chief factor is the inability Of naval
experts TO agree on what role the battleship
Will play in future naval warfare
The evolution Of these gigantic fighting
ships is interesting.
Originally the battleship was simply a
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-05-10

grown-up cruiser. The old-time Zine of
battle ship of sailing days had three gun
decks where the frigate, or cruiser. had but
one She presented her, battery in three tiers;
otherwise, she was just like the smaller
craft.
The evolution of the revolving turret, begun
with Ercsson's Monitor, led to new kind Of
battleship one which had a strong secondary
battery arranged in a broadside, and big
gun battery Of four guns, mounted in pairs
in turrets.
Then came the dreadnought type, in
which four or six turrets were mounted on
a line amidshipS, capable of being fred on
either broadside. and the secondary battery
was reduced to unimportance.
1t was then that the battleship really be-
gan to grow. Hulls were made larger and
larger, armor plate was made heavier and
heavier, the big guns were made more and
more powerful and now we seem to have
reached the limit of useful SIZE so that some
experts doubt if the huge battleship is really
worth what it costs.
The argument probably will not be settled
until a large-scale naval war is fought and
the relative value of the different types of
fighting ship is decided in actual combat.
And We can only hope that the United
States feet isn't one of those with which the
test is made.
