BACKS MINTON
Robinson Bitterly ASSaiIed
by John Scott Before
5000 at Gary.
BIZ Times Special

81 mes Special
GARY, Ind, Oct. 27.-The diSsf-
lection in the Republican ranks in
Indiana became manifest here last
night when Sherman Minton, Dem
ocratic nominee for United States
senator, was introduced before
crowd of 5000 by John Scott, for
mer First district Republican chair
man.
Mr.. Scott, former state senator
and Republican candidate for con-
greSs, is one of the younger leaders
Of the Republican party in Indiana.
He pointed out in introducing
Mr.. Minton that it might seem
strange that he, lifelong Repuh-
ican and former district chairman,
should act in such a capacity, but he
felt that the time had come to re-
tire Senator Arthur r. Robinson,
one of the greatest bogus states
men we've ever had" from the
United States senate.
Six years ago, Senator Robinson
was Striding up and down the state
attacking Wall street and telling
the voters what he was going to do
about it" said Mr.. Scott. His
name is not attached to any bill
that curbed any predatory inter
est or any bill that did much about
anything"
Delighted cheers came from the
audience as it drank in the picture
of a Republican leader laying bare
his disgust with the inconsistency
and shortcomings of the titular
head of the Indiana Republican
party and its nominee to the United
States senate.
Mr.. Scott also termed Senator
Robinson "one who drinks wet and
goes around making dry speeches
for money" obviously referring to
the senator's longtime lip fealty to
the Anti-SaloOn League and the
Women's Christian Temperance
Union.
Mr.. Minton drew thunderous
cheers from the packed Gary arm
DRY as he attacked Senator Robin
sons record on national affairs and
his refusal to confine himself to the
issues of the senatorial campaign.
instead of devoting his attack to
the state administration.

Mr.. BARGE intimated that the jail
break probe had not been COM
pleted and that arrests would not
be made until all facts were known.
Three public officials and an at

der the eye of Mr.. BARGE and his
investigators for aiding and abet-
ting in the wooden gun" delivery
Of Dllllnger.
No Warrants Issued
Despite the fact arrests are ex-
pected momentarily, Mr.. BARGE said

Robert G. EStill, Lake ounty
prosecutor, who was photographed
with his arms around Dillinger upon
the latters return after capture at
Tucson, Ariz., differed with Mr..
BARGE on the time of arrests.
He declared the expose would be
broadcast and arrests made this

Mr.. BARGE and Mr.. Estill have
been busy for the last two days GULL
ing evidence in connection with the

In purported conversation with
a Gary newspaper reporter, the

The attorney-general's Office, aid
ed by Lake county officers and pri-

freedom.
Ernest Bunk, fingerprint expert,
was indicted for aiding Dillinger to

escaping in an auto. Bunk was re-
leased by the gangster in Illinois.
A second indictment against Sam
Cahoon, Grown Point Jail employe,

linger removed to the Indiana state
prison for safe keeping before the
escape. The contempt charges were
dismissed.

He's safe Now

If a senator can be excused Tor
his mistakes, then making mistakes
is Just as good as doing a good job
The truth OF the matter IS that
Senator Robinson knows the reason
he voted for those measures is that
he didn't dare do otherwise. He
knew the people out here wouldn't
have stood for il. but he's safe now.
He can say that he made a mis-
take and that they're unconstitu-
tional because he won't set any
Democratic votes. His only appeal
IS 10 the reactionary Republican
element"

Safe Driving

Foot travellers make up nearly
half OF the total of those killed
annually in automobile accidents.
Sometimes it is the pedestrian.
himself. who is at fault. But the
automobile driver must shoulder
most of the blame. It is his
duty to watch out for pedestrians
to give them the benefit of the
doubt always. Try as we may to
stop them, pedestrians will step
out from behind parked cars. cross
between intersections. walk on the
wrong side of an open highway
with traffic instead of facing it.
Therefore: Motorists. beware of
the hidden danger: watch out for
pedestrians.
