CODE VIOLATION
LAID TO ROBERTS
.Terre Haute Ex-Mayor In
dicted Among First in Fed
eraI Prosecutions.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
INDIANAPOLIS, May 2.-Donn NJ.
Roberts, long active in Democratic
politics and former mayor of Terre
Haute, was indicted by a Federal
grand jury here yesterday on a charge
of violating the petroleum code in
connection with operation of his chain
of filling stations at Terre Haute.
1t was one of the first criminal
prosecutions inaugurated by the Fed
eral Government since the national
recovery act went into effect.
Provides $1,000 Bond.
Roberts was arrested at Terre Haute
by Deputy United States Marshal
Frank A. Holmes and was released
on $1,000 bond. Conviction on the
charge carries a maximum fine of
$500 for each offenSe and each days
operation can be counted as a sep
arate offense.
Roberts is charged specifically with
failure to pay the Accent gallonage
tax on approximately 100000 gallons
of gasoline transported to Terre Haute
in interstate commerce from Illinois,
Missouri and Texas from September,
1888, through January, 1884.
The alleged violation concerns rule
"a of the code of fair competition for
the petroleum industry, making it an
unfair practice to evade the pay
ment of taxes.
Indicted 20 Years Ago.
Roberts and 125 other persons were
indicted nearly 20 years ago for vio-
lation of the election fraud laws in
the general election OF November 3,
1914. He was convicted and SEN
fenced by Judge Albert B. Ander-
son, then on the Federal court bench
here, to serve six years in prison and
pay fine of $4,000. The United
States Circuit Court of Appeals at
Chicago affirmed the conviction. Rob-
erts returned to Terre Haute after
serving his term and has been a can
didate for mayor on several occa-
sions, the last time in 1929, when
he was defeated for the nomination
in the primary by Wood Posey, pres
ent mayor.

THE RICHBERG REPORT

THE Richberg report shows that the New
- Deal has made going and rapid strides
toward recovery. It also shows that far more
progress has yet to be achieved.
The administration can take heart in the
return OF more than 100000 idle to regular
pay rolls since March 1888. But. with approx
mately 100000 still unemployed. the admin
istration hardly can afford to indulge itself
the leisure of pointing with pride to what has
been done
Among the accomplishments are the 375
per cent increase in the total of industrial
wages. the IS per cent net increase in the
purchasing power of all industrial workers. the
IS per cent increase in average hourly earn
ings. and the reduction of the average work
week by approximately six hours.
But it is a matter of grave concern that the
average factory workers weekly wage has in
creased only SIS per cent. while his cost of
living has risen 90 per cent. This seems to in
dicate that the worker is bearing more than
his share of the share-the-work burden.
In sharp contrast are the standard statis-
tics figures. used by Mr.. Richberg. showing
that the net profits of SOC companies of all
types we're 200 per cent higher in the first half
Of 1884 than in the first half Of 1888. and that
the net profits of 400 industrial companies we're
800 per cent higher.
As evidence OF the economic lift. Mr.. Rich
berg cites:
The factory production index rose from a
low of 474 in March. 1888. to a high of S51 in
July. 1888, dipped to 594 in November and
rose again to I'll in May. 1884. Other indices
contrast March. 1888. with June. 1884. as fol-
lows: Employment. 562 and IA: pay rolls, 80
and SOS: wholesale prices 6O2 and TAG.
These are unmistakable signs of an upward
trend. But they need to be brought up to date
with a chart Of the recession since May.
Other important accomplishments include:
Abolition of child labor and reduction in sweat
shops, destructive price cutting and business
failures-au traceable more or less to NRA.
What vital part public works expenditures
and loans have played in providing employ
ment and injecting new life into the de-
pressed heavy industries is shown in Mr.
Richbergjs report Few will quarrel with
Secretary Ickes' recommendation that the life
and lending power OF PwA be continued two
years longer.
Mr. Richberg viii report soon on agricul-
ture. relief. finances. government services and
foreign trade. When he has completed his
survey. we should be in a better position TO
answer the question: Where do we go from

suferings have been less severe and her re-
covery steadier.
Nor is England an exception. Insurance
against unemployment. old age. disability and

Australia has nberalized her old age pen

In Austria. the Vienna Workers sick fund,
protecting 2797lO workers. paid out 100000

Brazil provided disability and retirement
insurance for commercial workers;
Denmark perfected the administration of
laws providing old age pensions, and health,
invalidity and accident insurance;
Backward India started survey to find
the best scheme for unemployment insurance
for the municipal employees of Bombay, and
centered attention on plans to provide sick
ness insurance for industrial workers, pre-
Hminary to old age, invaHdity and orphans
insurance;
Italy, out Of compulsory tuberculosis in
surance fund, paid benefits and provided hos
pitsl care to 57,258 persons;
Japan extended health and maternity in
surance to 100000 additional workers, making
the total protected in excess of 100000;
New Zealand's pensions department paid
out 1,4O3375 pounds to 375O7 persons, and
gave additional benefits to 4619 widows and
53367 children;
Norway took steps to inaugurate a gen.
eral old age insurance plan;
Poland put into effect a unified social in
surance system covering sickness, maternity
industrial accidents, invalidity old age, Wild
owhood and orphanage for all workers in
commerce and industry;
Sweden enacted a voluntary unemploy-
ment insurance plan to which 100000 workers
will be eligible to share by contributing joint
ly with the government;
Switzerland increased the government sub
sidy to her unemployment insurance system;
France negotiated reciprocity treaty with
Czechoslovakia which gives the citizens of
one country residing in the other the right to
share equally with nationals the advantages
of unemployment insurance and relief An
even more comprehensive treaty. covering also
health insurance and old age pensions, was
ratified by France and SPAIN
For obvious reasons, no other government
has ever asked the United States to enter
into such treaty. But if the New Deal con-
tinues its vigor, we may yet join the rear
column Of the world march to social Sc
curity.

DEATH, BY CHOICE

IF Germany adopts the new penal code
that has been tentatively outlined, Grim
inal sentenced to death would be permitted to
take his own life. guard would leave vial
of poison and revolver in the condemned
cell, and the luckless prisoner would use which,
ever method he preferred to put himself out
of the world.
A procedure so different from the usage
prevalent in every civilized country is bound
to seem pretty startling, at first glance. And
yet you could make out fair sort of case in
support of it.
One of the most CHASTITY things about cap
ital punishment is that long wait in the death
cell between sentence and execution-that
knowledge from which the condemned man
can not escape, that his keepers eventually will
take him out and lead him forcibly to the cleo
trio chair. the gallows, or the guillotine.
Many a condemned man, unable to stand
the strain tries to kill himself-and then
prison doctors fight to save his life, so that it
can be taken from him. later. in the prescribed
manner.
Permitting the man to kill himself might
actually be more humane.

STILL AHEAD OF EUROPE

WTILLIAM FEATHER. Cleveland business
W man, returns from a trip to Europe
with the remark that in spite of the depres-
sion, this country is living on a plane that
Europe will be lucky to reach in another gen.
Grafton"
Compared with France, Germany, and
England he says, the ordinary man in the
United States is living, if not life of luxury,
at least life of comfort.
Conditions in England are better than those
on the continent but even there "the plain
people do not know. as they never have known,
living standard comparable to what we find
here after five years of devastating depres-
sion"
Here is something worth remembering 1t
does no good, heaven knows, to try to mini
mize the effects of the depression, to try to
pretend that there has been little real hard
ship.
But it doesn't hurt to remember that, when
all is said and done. we are still luckier than
most people. The American standard of living
is heritage which even the depression hasn't
wrecked
