GREEK EX-HEAD
HERE TO SEE
NEWDEAL

Alexander Papanastasiou, the
"Father of Democracy" in Greece,
arrived in the Capital today. In
fact, he arrived twice.
He arrived at Union Station
from Chicago about 9 o'clock and
went directly to the Mayflower
Hotel and registered. There he
learned that a delegation includ-
ing members of the Greek lega-
ton were awaiting him at the
station and had missed connec-
tions. So back he raced and met
them, and was escorted formally
to his hotel suite.
Was First President
Leader of the Farm-Labor Party,
one of the largest in his country,
although it Is now out OF power,
Mr.. PapanaStaSiou directed the
revolution OF 1924, which over
threw the monarchy, and was
named the first president OF
Greece.
From 1924 to 1928 he dominated
the political picture, and then was
succeeded by Premier VenizeloS'
who headed the recent revolution
that ended in failure.
Mr.. PapanastaSiou does not be-
heve the royalist party will ever
come back into power. He laughed
at reports from Vienna by way OF
Belgrade that the Duke OF Kent,
Younger son of the King Of Eng"
land, had been offered the crown
He said:
"The pIebiscite, which has
been set for next November,
asks the question Of the people
If they want the restoration OF
King George of Greece, or If the
republic is to continue. 1t makes
no mention of bringing In q new
dynasty, and it is incOnceivable
to me that such q step should be
taken.
REPUBLIC TO STAY
'Tn fact, I am confident that
the republic will be continued.
Certainly it will If the people are
given a chance to vote fairly.
Since the 1924 revolution we
have had four elections, and
each time there has been . great
republican majority.
premier TSaldariS has said
that he believes the royal Sys-
tenn of government is the bet
ter. But 1 do not believe that
he thinks so in his heart.
"His party was pledged to the
plebiscite, and he is afraid Of
losing party members unless
this step is taken"
The former President has 9
dual mission in the United States
He is here to visit members Of his
family and also to study the New
Deal, with a view to perhaps in
cooperating certai parts of it ir
his government, if his party
should again be victorious at the
polls.

Indiana Seeks Order

Indiana industrial and business
leaders sought today to bring order
from post-NRA confusion and to
assure themselves and their en-
ployes that the trade practices and
wage levels provided in NRA codes
would be continued voluntarily.
They were spurred to activity b.
rumbles of strikes, threats and
price-cutting. and predictions of
economists that the destruction of
the MIRA by the United States Su-
preme Court Monday would throw
millions of men out of work.
Reports from Washington have
stated that NRA was directly re-
sponsible for the employment Of
millions and business men feared
the entire trade system might revert
to pre-NRA hours and wages and
sharp practices, which the business
men themselves eliminated by the
codes they wrote.
The Indiana State Chamber Of
Commerce directors will meet Fri
day in offices here to discuss the
feasibility of asking their members
voluntarily to follow the principles
of the codes which banished price
competition, and a score of other
commercial evils.
Gov. Paul v. McNutt declared to-
Gay that the State NRA, enacted by
the 1885 Legislature as companion
piece to the NRA. was rendered in
operative by the Supreme Court de-
cision. and he denied he planned to
ask state business leaders to follow
the codes voluntarily.

The 100000 borrowing operation
will cost the city approximately 40
ner cent annually and is predicateo
on the winning syndicate's Did OF
e65l for the bonds as Az per cent
obligations. Under the scale OF ma
turtles accompanying the bid 1t is
computed that all of the bonds Will
be retired in 80 years.
Announcement of the deflnlte
awarding of the bond issue was
made after directors and trustees OF
the City Utility District met IN
Mavor John w. Kern's office to re-
sumo their deliberations over three
bids which were submitted yester-
day.
borrowing Cost Highest
The Otis-Halsey, Stuart offer was
the poorest in so far as the borrow
inc cost for the city was concerned,
but the most favorable in meeting
requirements laid down by the JUL
itv District in advertising for bids.
The Joint offer by G. w. McNear
B. Co. and A. c. Allyn g. Co. would
have levied a 1898 per cent Dor
rowing cost, while the borrowing
cost under the Stifel, Nicolaus d
Co. bid was 4.4O6 per cent. Both
these tenders, however, insisted
upon certain conditions being met
with before the offers become bona
fide.
The only reservations attached to
the Otis Halsey, Stuart offer we're
the customary requirements in re-
gard to the legality of the bond is
sue and the assurance that there IS
no litigation pending or threatened
at the time of delivery OF the oondS.
Stockholders to Be Paid OFF
Today's transaction is of major
concern to both security holders OF
the Citizens Gas Co. and gas con-
sumers of the city. When final ar
rangements for the delivery of the
So 900 900 bond issue are completed
owners of the 10000 shares OF the
Citizens Gas Co. will receive the full
par value of $25 share, plus &C
crued dividends of 1928 share.
The owners of the 10000 shares OF
preferred stock will receive $500
each. or a total of $1,000,000, plus a
dividend of close to $3.50, plus S.
premium for redeeming the stock.
The owners of the $2,800,00O OF 5
per cent bonds also will be paid of
in full.
To retire the entire stock and
bond indebtedness of the Citizens
Gas Co. approximately $6,375, 5000 will
be needed. The balance, $l,625,OO,
will be utilized for improvements OF
the present plant and for reim-
bursement of the city for expenses
incurred in arranging for the alb
sorption of the Citizens Gas Co.
Security Based on Earnings
No consideration is given to the
lease of the indianapolis Gas Co.
in the transaction worked out today.
Under this contract the Citizens
Gas Co. now pays approximately
$3.50 900 annual rental to the Indi-
annapolis Gas Co., which obligation
will accrue to the city.
City gas consumers are concerned
in the transaction because of the
fact that the only security for the
bonds sold is earnings. Under the
resolution authorized by the City
Utility District the city agrees to
maintain a rate for gas which Will
be sufficient to meet principal and
interest on the $4,000. 900 bond issue.
In order to meet its part OF the
bargain the city must for the next
80 years, which is the life of the
bond issue, maintain a rate for gas
which will allow for principal and
interest service on the S6,0OO,0OO
issue.
