CCC DIRECTOR
BANS BOOK ON
SOCIAL SCIENCE
Or. 0gburn'S Work Held Not
Sufficiently Optimistic
FOR u. S. Men.
By DANIEL VI. KIDNEY
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON. Nov. 17.-Direc-
tor Robert Fechner OF the civilian
conservation corps refuses TO alb
dicate his new role of censor. AS
a result. $4,000 young men in the
camps are barred from a study pro-
gram in social sciences. designed
especially for them at cost C.
$40 900 of Rockefeller funds.
Meanwhile. the United States
education Office is trying to work
out a compromise. It is willing to
place an extra hyleaf in the first
pamphlet censored by Mr.. Fechner
saying the CCC director doesn't in
dorse the ideas therein
This booklet, written by DR.. Will
liam E. Ogburn, sociologist of the
University of Chicago. was the first
of a series for CCC. Director Fech-
ners censorship has stopped the en-
tire program.
He held Dr. Ogburn was not suf-
flciently optimistic" 1t is titled
You and Machines" and cites the
! problems, pro and con, created by
modern machinery 1t urges such
measures of economic security in a
machine age as unemployment in
4 surance. health insurance and old
/ age tensions.
All of these have the blessing of
the New Deal under President
| Roosevelt.
You and Machines" is Illustrated
with cartoons by Fred G. Cooper,
well-known contributor to illus
trated magazines.
Dr. Ogburn has written the text
in simple language giving both
sides. Some excerpts follow:
The machine does both harm
and good. 1t saves our lives, but
mains our limbs. 1t brings us COM
forts, but causes us unhappiness
The problem before the human race
is to see if we can increase Our
friendly relations with the machine
and diminish its hostility
When workers struggle against
machines it often does them no
more good than it would for farm
horses to kick the tractors that re-
place them in the fields"
Inventions also make new jobs. y
ITO the man who has no prop
erty, no farm on which to raise
food, and only his labor to sell, un-
employment is as terrible as were
raids of wild animals in earlier
ages"

TOWNSEND WINNER
IN FIGHT ON JOB

US. Court Rules.

Lieutenant Governor M. Clifford
Townsend is a member Of the ex-
ecutive department of the state of
Indiana and therefore entitled to
hold the post of agricultural COM
missioner, Federal Judge Robert c..
Baltzell ruled yesterday.
Judge Baltzell's ruling was in an
swer to a suit filed by George Arm
strong, Marksville, Ill, Knox
county IndO taxpayers, in which it
was maintained that when Mr..
Townsend became agricultural
commissioner under the McNutt
state reorganization act he became
ineligible to hold the position Of
Lieutenant Governor.

concern for exclusive rights to sell
gas outside cities and towns in
Marion county, had said his princi-
pals would be willing to finance the
citys purchase of the Citizen Gas
Company.
After issuing the invitation,
Mayor Sullivan declared the city OF
Indianapolis would suffer irrepara-
BILE damage and that Marion county
would sacrifice valuable rights if the
county commissioners grant the ex-
elusive franchise.
A petition asking the franchise
has been on file several weeks with
Dow w. Vohries, Ernest K. Marker
and John w. Mann, county COM
missioners. After a lengthy hearing,
during which city officials opposed
the petition, a continuance was
granted until Dec. 7.
The citys rights would be invaded
in three ways by the issuance of the
franchise, Mayor Sullivan said.
1T is my understanding" the
mayor declared, that the city, after
it takes over the Citizens Gas Com
pany, will have the right to serve
gas to residents of the county within
a five-mile radius of the city limits
If the franchise is granted it is very
plain the city no longer would have
this right.
IF the city desired, as I think it
will, to purchase natural gas for
use in Indianapolis it could obtain
it only through negotiating with the
company obtaining the franchise. 1t
would eliminate all chance of hav-
ing bids submitted and of obtaining
through that method the lowest
available price"
If the Users Gas Company is
given the exclusive franchise Mayor
Sullivan pointed out, it would be
necessary for the city to purchase
gas through that one company, re-
CARELESS of the cost.
The franchise also would infringe
on the city's rights in the event the
city boundaries are extended, Mayor
Sullivan said.
There would be a conflict" he
declared 1.-TWO utilities would be
serving gas within the city limits
private corporation and public
ly owned utility"
Residents of the county also
would be harmed if the commission
ers grant the franchise, Mayor Sui
Ivan claimed. The commissioners
would be giving away for nothing
a franchise for which many another
responsible company would pay
large sums. Several other companies
which made a showing as to their
financial responsibility have sought
franchises of this characters and
the commissioners have declined to
grant them"
The group represented by Mr..
G:van has not shown its financial
responsibility, Mayor Sullivan de-
clared and no showing whatever
where they expect to obtain gas.

u. S. HOPES OF
REGAINING WAR
LOANS ARE Dim
Negotiations at StaIemate:
Europe Wants Revision,
America Refuses.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIAIMS
Scripps- Howard Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, Nov. lit is
beginning to dawn on officials here
that the $4,000 100000 war debt to
the United States is as good as dead
unless the United States takes the
initiative to ressurect it.
Four weeks from tomorrow, Dec.
Is, another semi-annual inStallment
will be due from Great Britain,
France, Italy and other European
war debtors. Cuns will be sent out
the first of the month, as usual.
But, aside from the dazzling ex-
ception of Finland, not one IS ex-
pectcd to pay.
But that is not the most diseour-
aging factor. Led by Britain and
France, the debtor nations have
clearly indicated that unless and
until the United States advances
some new and practical plan of
payment, they do not propose to
make any further effort to pay.
The war debts have reached a
stalemate, therefore. If Uncle n
refuses to act, John Bull and the
rest bluntly intimate, it is all the
same to them.
Britain, France Unchanged
This week, Prime Minister Ram
say Macdonald told the house of
commons that Britain was contem-
plating no new move in the matter.
Foreign Minister John Simon said
the same. Yesterday, Neville Cham
berlain, chancellor of the exchequer,
clinched the thing by saying
Britain's attitude on the debt ques-
ton has not changed.
Pierre Flandin, new premier of
France, has assured the French
chamber of deputies in the same
sense. Like Britain, France is in
default and proposes to remain SO
until some general settlement salts
factory to her is instituted by this
country.
Officials here are far from happy
over this turn. 1t is unpleasantly
obvious that the only way to save
the American taxpayers something
from the debt wreckage is to make
an offer" to the debtors.
And that is far from easy. Poll
ticianS are afraid of the possible
dynamite in the debt. Congress has
taken the position that not a penny
shall be knocked off. It's tradition
al slogan is: Make 'em pay the last
red cent"
U. S. Action Likely
Europe just as categorically in
siSts she can not pay-unlesS the
war debts are scaled down in much
the same way that the allies scaled
down German reparations at Lou
same. In other words, down to
something like 10 cents on the dol
lar
The administration is thus be-
twixt the devil and the deep sea.
b. a realistic approach-like a
banker would deal with bankrupt
debtor-it might save a few bill
lions of dollars to the American
taxpayer. But congress, as things
stand, blocks any such approach.
The administration. has only two
alternatives. One is to wait for
Europe to pay in full and of her
own accord = which apparently
means forever. The other is to
send battleships to collect, and that.
of course, is out.
There are reasons to believe, how
ever that the administration may
call in the leaders of congress and
lay before them a practical plan
for collecting at least some of the
money.
