billy that news of President Roose-
velt's $1,000 900 900 x-the-rich plan
may have leaked to Wall Street in
time to permit a market cleanup
aroused interest in capital circles
today.
The Street" heard inheritance
tax rumors several hours before M.
Roosevelt sent to Congress his plan
to tap great inheritances OF wealth
and power in a move to shift a
larger proportion of the cost of gov
eminent to the richer portions of
the population.
The tax message was ready for
Congress early on the morning OF
June 10. Ordinary procedure would
have placed it in the hands of news
paper correspondents several hours
before Congress convened at noon.
But distribution to the press was
DELAYED to enable the Senate to dis
pose of the then pending social Sc
curity bill.
There was apprehension that the
tax plan bombshell would have COM
plicated the job of easing social Sc
curity legislation through the up
per house. AS soon as the Senate
had passed it the tax message was
released. But warning that it was
coming evidently reached Wall
Street through unofficial channels.
The market was nervous and yes
terday there was a general decline
of blue chip securities that was re-
gained somewhat in later trading.
Meanwhile, the chief executives
plan became the source Of legisla-
tive and financial confusion and the
principal obstacle to early adjourn
ment of Congress.

RENEW HITCH
JUDGE BATTLE
Former Deputy's Counsel
Writes Objection: Baker
Boosts Karrer.

Criminal Judge Frank P. Baker
today took under Amusement a
written objection to the slate of
three attorneys he has named for
the selection of judge to try Ralph
L. Hitch, former chief deputy sheriff,
On charges of ENLIGHTENMENT.
Emsley johnson, attorney for Mr..
Hitch, objected to the list, COM
posed of Clyde c. KarreH L. Ert
Slack, and William G. Batchelder'
because both Mr.. Karrer and Mr..
Slack had been named on other
states in the same case.
Moreover, Attorney Johnson
pointed out that Mr.. Karrer is at
torney in another suit against Mr..
Hitch and claimed he has expressed
bias and prejudice against the de-
PENDANT.
There are 1900 attorneys in town
that could try this case, Attorney
johnson told the judge.
There are not more than 30 at
torneys that know criminal law"
the Judge retorted, land I wouldn't
want many of them on the bench.
There are a lot of attorneys who
don't want to try the case because
they figure The Times would take a
rap at them"
Attorney johnson offered to bring
Judge Baker a list of IS of the
highest type attorneys that would
be eligible.
II have submitted names of only
the highest type attorneys" the
Judge countered, land none Of these
is higher than Slack and Karrer."
After more arguments, Judge Ba-
ker said he would name new slate
if there was the slightest doubt"
that the law required attorneys to
be named who had had no previous
connection with the case.

Warrick County sheriff unlocked
his manacles and fed him.
A POSSE captured the youths,
L n shooting the 14-year-old Ray
in the shoulder. The Dubois
County's stern justice read its law
literally by calling a special grand
jury, indicting the boys on the major
crime of kidnapping and then bal
anced justice scales with the So
called mandatory sentence of life
Imprisonment.
The life sentence for the boys was
the second kidnapping penalty to be
assessed in the county against
youths taking robbery victims for a
ride in an attempt to fee justice. :.
A few months ago. two youths
were given a similar sentence after
they had kidnapped filling station

Shortly before the sheriff's kid
napers left on their reformatory trek
today, they got thrill when a rep
resentative of the organization they
wanted to belong to-"G men" or

them regarding stolen cars.

transfer of the funds had
the effect of lawfully creating
the position.
William P. Cosgrove, chief ex-
aminer for the State Accounts
Board, would express no Official
opinion, but said he doubted the
councils action could have rati-
fed Judge Bakers appointment of
the minor court attache.
1t was disclosed yesterday in The
Indianapolis Times investigation OF
the administration of criminal JUS
tice in Marion County, that Judge
Baker had reappointed Joel A. Baker
as probation officer and investigator
notwithstanding a state law requir-
ing judges to appoint as probation
officers only such persons as have
gained an eligible listing after COM
petitive examinations.
Never Took Examination
Joel A. Baker, according to the
State Probation Commission, never
took or passed the examination.
At the State House, Mr.. CoSgrove
said he had instructed the auditors
assigned to the Marion County
Courthouse to make complete re-
port on the legality Of Joel A. Bak-
er's appointment.
Yesterday Mr.. Cosgrove said if the
payments were illegal Auditor
Charles A. Grossart could be held
accountable under his bond.
Mr.. Cosgrove said the Attorney
General would be asked for an opin-
ion as soon as the report of the
auditors is received. Today, Mr..
Cosgrove said he did not believe the
county council, by its action trans
ferring the funds at Judge Bakers
request. thereby created a position
fer the investigator.
Not on Spencer's Staff
Prosecutor Spencer denied he in
tended to appoint Baker to one Of
the investigating positions for which
the council today appropriated
funds. He said the appointees have
been selected and that Joel A. Baker
is not one of them.
Appearing before the County
Council Mr.. Spencer denied the
three additional investigators he
seeks to appoint, will be designated
as secret operatives.
He was asked by The Times
whether the investigators will be in
structed to investigate the adminis-
tration of criminal justice in Mar
ion County. Mr.. Spencer said they
would have no particular instruc-
tons"
Barker Case Closed"
Mr.. Spencer was asked whether
the new investigators would take up
an investigation of the case of Lee
P. Barker, convicted bootlegger who =
was jailed on a contempt of court
attachment issued out of Judge
Bakers court, then released on an
order initiated a. A. B.
i consider that case closed, the
Prosecutor retorted.
Mr.. Spencer was with Joel A.
Baker at the Marion County Jail
when Barker was released Nov. rs.
1884, without being committed to
Indiana State Prison, a few hours
after $3.50 had been left in escrow. .
Commercial Deal Raised
Mr.. Spencer offered the explana-
ton the $3.50 represented "contin-
gent attorney fees" payable to him if
he could convince Judge Baker the
Bankers should 60 free.

of this year

JASPER. Ind. June 2l.-The Du-
- bois County judiciary and bar
were plunged this afternoon into
legal confusion when the superin-
tendent Of the Indian State Reform
atory. Pendleton. refused to accept
either Of two boys. "a and II years
old. on 99-yesr sentences imposed
yesterday.
The Reformstory refused to &C
cept the younger boy, Bascom Ray
JT.. because he Is under is, and re-
fused TO accept tf,F older boy. Maui
rice Sheridan, because Pendleton
does not take life termers.
Immediately upon learning this,
Circuit Judge John L. Sumner. who
imposed the sentence after the boys
pleaded guilty to indictments charg-
ing they had kidnapped the Dubois
County sheriff. called a meeting Of
the county bar and asked for sug-
geStions.
Louis A. Savage. former county
prosecutor. said that he felt the
whole procedure in the case had
been wrong. He said that he believed
the bows should have been indicted
separately, and that the Ray boy
should have been proceeded against
in Juvenile Court.
Judge Summer pointed out that
Dubois County has no Juvenile
Court. and after some more opinions
pro and con. called Atty. Gen. Philip
Lutz and asked for an opinion on
the procedure.
Atty. Gen. LUtz told Judge Sum-
ner that ne would not give an i'm
mediate oral opinion and Judge
Sumner announced that his subse-
auent action in the matter will be
guided by the opinion when it is
delivered.
