Italy Rejects Peace Plea,
ROuses Wrath of Britain

strict itself only to frontier clashes
which are but small part Of the
general picture.
1t was indicated for time that
the European powers in the council
meeting next Wednesday or Thurs
day would seek method of pro-
cedure that would appear, in the
records, to be a consideration Of
Ethiopias appeal for help, but &C
tually would be aimed merely at
keeping Italy happy.
But Capt. Eden has instructions
in expounding Britain's ideas to the
council to demand that the League
discuss the merits of the dispute
fully.
1t is not intended to exacerbate
Italy. If Italy is willing to argue its
case, it is indicted that the big
powers on the council may find that
it will be strong enough to justify
Italy's course.
italian acceptance of the sugges-
ton for full argument would mean
an investigation of Ethiopia's inter
national status and would postpone
the Leagues decision whether TO
risk its life by trying to keep Italy
from declaring war.

Inc mOSJ recent development
supporting this theory is the sug-
gestion of the indianapolis Chamber
of Commerce that S4.00O000 of the
100000 surplus in the state treas
ury be applied to the reduction of
local taxes.
The Governors reaction to this
plan was instantaneous and, in eff
feet. supplied the answer to the
special session question. He de-
clared that the state is mot going
to get itself out on limb" and find
itself unable to meet whatever de-
mands may be made by the Federal
social security program.
Accused of Double Cross"
He did not mention special ses-
sion and he was not asked about it
because he is getting little tired Of
answering the question.
The governor has been accused of
breaking faith with certain House
and Senate members. The most &C
cepted version of a conference he
had with them during the legisla-
ture is that they threatened to bolt
the administration on the liquor bill
unless he would promise to call
special session this summer or fall
for tax relief.
OF course, the liquor bill was
passed.
The governor repeatedly has de-
clared that he only said at that con-
ference that re would call the Ses-
sion, if it becomes necessary.
In Prosperous Condition
1t has been known for some time
that the prosperous condition of the
state treasury would enable Indiana
TO go through under whatever Fed
eral social security plan is adopted.
Old age pensions are not costing
the state much now. It's share was
only s567125 in 1884. for instance,
which means that approximately
! $4,000 pensioners received twice that
in varying amounts.
Under the Indiana old age pen
sion law. the counties fix the
amount of the pensions up to SIS,
with the state paying half. Many
counties did nothing about it and
some fixed merely nominal amounts.
Even if all of the 90 counties par
ticipated to the maximum amount,
in order to get an equal amount of
Federal funds up to SIS, the state
would be able to pay its half, it is
estimated.
Thus with the state adminiStra-
ton determined to stay in its pres
ent favorable position, in order to

easily at their posts.
The order to stop the engines and
drop anchor came from the control
room. His position fixed, Capt. Rus
sell turned his eye upon the graph,
bringing it to focus the ocean bed
beneath him.
Yesterday the turbulent water,
heaying the Orphir in a vertical
plane as much as 40 feet in a single
thrust, had made focusing difficult.
Today the calm sea offered no re-
siStance to the penetration Of the
captains lenses.

But as the object became more
clear we could see it was without
stacks, that it was a narrow sailing
ship about 300 feet in length in
contrast to the 785-foot structure of
the giant Cunarder.

the realization dawned upon us all
that the vessel we had believed 10

another hulk on the sands of yes

his high hopes had been dashed to
pieces.
The Lusitania may be found to-
morrow, next week, next month.
What matters is that it will be
found, and that it will yield up its
secrets to the Orphir's divers.
