Glenn today remained in jail at
Kokomo in default of $4,000 bail
fixed by Circuit Court there, after
he had been accused CT forging sew
eral checks and cashing them in
Kokomo mercantile establishments.
With charges pending against him
here since September, 1888, Glenn
was bailed in 1884 by Criminal Judge
Frank P. Baker, who set $1,000 as the
sum required to insure Glenn's APP
pearance in court to answer charges
of forgeries aggregating 1929.
The Kokomo charges aggregated
$3.50 but because of Glenn's long
criminal record. set out by the
American Bankers Association pro-
tective department, his bail was
fixed at $4,000.
Kokomo authorities insisted today
they would not surrender Glenn for
trial in Marion County, although
the prisoner told Police Chief
Charles ONeill at Kokomo that he
is eager to be returned to this
county for sentence.
Glenn was tried in Marion Coun-
ty Criminal Court before Judge
Baker April 25, 1885 on charges of
forging two checks on the Indiana
National Bank. The indianapolis
forgery occurred in June. 1888, and
Glenn was arrested after he COM
pleted a term in Missouri pentiten-
tiary.
At the conclusion of the trial here,
Judge Baker held sentence in abey-
ance.
This man is young fellow with
a good education who never had a
chance to use it." Judge Baker re-
marked.

The Republican party will seek
restoration to national favor dur
ing the pending session of Con-
gress on a four-point program of
fundamental issues.
This program had the indorse.
ment today Of high Republican

It would pledge the Republicans to:
/. Nationalism on international
issues, on the debt question, on
immigration and in constructing a
navy second to none in the world.
2. The protective tariff, includ-
ing a fight on any effort to ex-

3. Sound money, with its coupled
issues of economy in Government
and a balanced budget.
4. Care Of war veterans, possibly
even to the extent of supporting
immediate payment of the bonus.
This much Senate Republicans
may approve at their party con.
ference, to be held after they

PRAISED BY
PRESIDENT
LaudS Teamwork Shown BY
Those Who Made New Deal
Success; Full Pay Seen

High praise for the hundreds of
thousands of Government EN-.
ployeS was sounded today by Presi.
dent Roosevelt when he delivered
his annual message to Congress.
The laudatory remarks of the
President were considered on
Capitol Hill to be of deep signi.
ficance in view of the approach.
ing fight to restore Government
salaries to normal.
The President said:
"It seems appropriate to call
attention at this time to the
fine spirit shown during the
past year by our public servants.
I cannot praise too highly the
cheerful work of the Civil Ser.
vice employees and Of those tenn
pOrarily working for the Gov
ernment.
Gas for those thousands in
our various public agencies
spread throughout the country
who, without compensation,
have agreed to take over heavy
responsibilities in connection
with our various loan agencies
and particularly in direct relief
work, cannot say too much.
81 do not think any country
could show o higher average Of
cheerful and even enthusiastic
team work than has been shown
by these men and women"
The crowded House chamber
broke into applause when the Pres.
ident lavished this praise upon the
men and women who have made
the New Deal go.
Leaders of the fight to restore
salaries to normal, to protect the
merit system and to reestabliSh
the privileges taken from the Gov
ernment workers by the Economy
act, were particularly happy at
the Presidents remarks.
