NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Two pow
erful groups of industrialists and a
poll of national sentiment by the
Literary Digest hit the national Ad-
ministration with stiff jolts today.
Wall Street betters dropped odds on
President Roosevelt's reelection to
nearly even money.
First returns of the Literary Di-
gets poll of 100000 voters indi-
Gated the President would lose an
election today in regions where 18
months. ago he polled a substantial
majority. At the same time, speak
ers for the National Founders Asso-
citation and the New York State
Chamber of Commerce attacked the
New Deal with condemnation ap-
| preaching vituperation.
Applause at meetings of these or
CARNATIONS last night indicated the
900 bankers, transportation eXecu-
tives, utility leaders and economists
approved almost unanimously.
The only bright spot in the New
Deal day was retraction by E. F.
Hutton, chairman of the board of
General Foods Corporation, of a
suggestion in current magazine
article that all industry gang up
in "one great industrial and business
lobby to defeat the Roosevelt pro-
gram.
Hutton said his feelings about the
Administration have been changed
entirely" and that he thought he
might have misjudged President
Roosevelt's intentions. Recent state
ments by Secretary of Commerce
Henry G. Roper in support of the
profit system worked his conversion,
he said.

six men and six women, all country

death was their verdict.

Otherwise, the emperor said, the
trip was without incident. But his
visit, he said, convinced him of the
mettle of his armies.
The courage of my soldiers COM
pensates for their lack of equip
ment," he said.
The Italians never achieved the
advances they claim. AS matter
OF fact, they are still near the
Ualual- Gorrahei Gerlogubi line,
which they occupied a month ago.
Our troops are still south of Sassa
Baneh, which they falsely claimed
they captured"
Asked the purpose of his visit to
the front, the emperor said
1--WE wanted to join our soldiers,
not in order to encourage them,
which we know is unnecessary, but
in order to visit them, learn their
needs and become cognizant with
the present military situation.
I'VE also wanted to bring to orr
wounded the recompense and assur-
ance that they deserve.
1--WE were touched by the order
reigning among our troops. even
when they are only militiamen with
only primitive military education.
Feeling and yearning for duty
replace in them the qualities sup
piled by discipline and training to
European armies.
THE tactics we imposed have had
no repercuSsion on the troops
morale.
They unquestionably would pre-
fer to throw themselves forward but
they understand the necessities
which dominate our strategic de-
ciSions."
Restraint Is Needed
These decisions are that the
Ethiopians must restrain themselves,
harass the Italians and await per-
sonal orders from the Emperor to
attack on chosen ground at a
chosen time.
Aerial bombardment has had not
even the least effect on the morale
of troops or inhabitants" continued
the Emperor. Furthermore there
must be emphasized the meager eff
fects of these commandments. For
instance-at Gorrahei, where liter
ally hundreds of bombs were dropped
with only II killed or seriously in
jured among our troops"

PRESENT WORLD
DICTATORSHIPS
HIT BY MILNER
Presbyterian Pastor Is Real
Estate Board
Speaker.

Emergence of a new religion Ma
tionalism,' and ripening of the
world for relationships were declared
trends of the times by Dr.. Jean S.
Miner, Second Presbyterian Church
pastor at a luncheon of the Indi-
annapolis Real Estate Board yester-
day.
A turkey dinner. with The Spann
Co. as hosts. prefaced the address.
1T is an appropriate time to take
stock of ourselves and rededicate
ourselves to the perpetuation of our
heritage" DR.. Miner said.
Dr. Miner. author of The Sky
Is Red" pointed out that Amer
leans do not appreciate fully their
heritage until they have travelled
abroad and have seen European
conditions.
Faith in Common Man
Faith in the common man is an
integral part of our democratic
theory and the first great man to
recognize this was Jesus and when
The NaZarene did this he put dyna-
mite into history which has been
exploding ever since" DR.. Miner
said.
The government that governs
best is the one that governs least.
During the first two decades of the
present century We believed our
democratic ideals would dominate
throughout the world. Now all this
is changed radically.
This period likely is to witness
the emergence of a new religion
the religion of 'Nationalism. This
is traceable directly to paganism.
Democracy is declared to be a lot Of
fooliShnesS. The tendency of today
is toward ruthless relationships.
War for Democracy
I'VE thought we fought a war to
make the world safe for democracy:
as matter of fact we made it ripe
for relationships. The modern die
tatorshipS have been set up at a
sacrifice of individual liberty-our
greatest legacy DR.. Miner said.
I believe" he said in conclusion,
that disciplined intelligence ulti-
mately will determine which of the
three systems will win-Fascism,
Communism, or Democracy. Our
heritage is in for a great struggle
and man is blind who does not
see it. The greatness of people
depends on the greatness of their
ideals"
Paul McCord, realty board presi-
dent, paid tribute to the Spann Co.
as the oldest real estate firm in
Indianapolis. The company was
formed in 1854 B. w. Duck ST.,
company president, was host and
chairman of the dinner.

JURORS IN TAFT
CASE HEAR HOW
TO CRACK SAFE
Confessions of Defendant
Admitted as Evidence
in Trial.

James Flaherty and Ernest TAFT
testified against themselves to-
day in their Criminal Court trial on
charges Of burglary when Special
Judge James D. Ermston ruled as
admissible burglary confessions they
signed.
When deputy prosecutors read the

stance, safe allegedly was opened
in four minutes,
Tait's statement said that the
first safe burglary he ever staged
was at the Alexander Box Co.; that
the safe was empty and he got moth
ing.
Tells of Alleged job
On Dec. %, 1894, the statement
said, he and Flaherty and Donald
Nye, also on trial, went to the Roy
Wilmeth garage, N. Meridian-st, and
tricked the Waterman into letting
them in.
They bound and gagged the
Waterman and then TAFT let Fla

in through a front door, the state
ment continued.
While Nye stayed on guard, TAFT
and Flaherty went upstairs and
there, the statement said, TAFT saw
Flaherty open a large safe in four
minutes with combination puller.
They got 1924 from this safe and
another, the statement said, and had
to give up on third after working
on it for two hours.
Defense Objected
Defense attorneys objected to adj
hitting these statements as evil
dence, but the judge overruled them
Exceptions were taken and defense
attorneys said they will appeal if
their clients are convicted.
Clyde Karrer, attorney for Nye,
moved that the jury be dismissed
because the statements were preiu-
dicial to his client. This was over
ruled.

THE LIQUOR SITUATION

RaIeioh seems determined to bring the leglsla-
+ro hack for special session early in the year
Gov the purpose of enacting statewide liquor law
in Mace of the present hodge-podge arrangement
which enables 16 counties in the state to establish
Iouor stores and sell strong drink legally 1t is be-
ing pointed out that the stores in these 10 counties
are engaged in cut throat competition in order 20
get the business from the dry counties
The argument for the special session now is that
under the present arrangement the Is counties get
all the tax from the sale of the strong drink. II
there is too much delay these 16 counties will lob
by for the continuation of county rather than stale
control and within a short time it will be impos
sibe to get a state control law passed. This means
that the liquor evil will be twice bad it ordi
narily would be- for the simple that under
county control it would quickly become involved in
local politics.
It is not known just how Governor Ehringhaus
feels about calling special session, but it appears
now that he is facing bad situation. When the
Houor question comes up, it is always hard to
handle However, friends of liquor have never
seemed able to control themselves, and if the pres
ent trend continues it will be only matter of

A CHALLENGE TO NORTH CAROLINA

One of the most ruthless and savage
crimes ever committed in North Carolina
was the Mars Hill bank robbery and shoot
ing of the young college girl in that village
1t is one of the most outrageous and aud&-
cious challenges ever issued by Iawless men
to the State of North Carolina.
The Times-News joins with The Ashe-
Vile Citizen and other newspapers and all
good citizens of the State in demanding
that the perpetrators of this dastardIY
crime be run down and punished to the
limit of the law.
Unless such crimes are stopped in North
Carolina it is only matter of time when
there will be no safety of life or property
in the State, when robbery and murder and
all the crimes in the catalogue will be COM
mitted at will by desperate and brutal law
breakers.
The Mars Hill outlaws and their kind are
human hyenas. They should be treated as
hyenas.
