President LaudS MCNutt and
Legislature for State
NRA Moves.
WIRE SENT GOVERNOR
Wrong Connotatlon Put Oh
His Statement, Indiana
Executive Told.

President Franklin D.
Roosevelt late yesterday pub
licly rebuked the Indianapolis
News for an extraordinary
misinterpretation" of his
press conference statement
on the Indiana state NRA bill.
In telegram to Gov. Paul v.
McNutt, the President said further
that "it is ;. clear, except to those
persons who seek to muddy the wa
tiers and block progress, that all Of
us believe the Federal government
will receive state cooperation with
this new national legislation"
Meanwhile, backed by this assure
ance from the President, that he
favors helpful state legislation To
carry forward the industrial recovery
program, Indiana legislative leaders
planned today to place the proposed
state NRA act in line for Senate
committee consideration next week.
The President told Gov. McNutt
he appreciates the cooperation
which the Governor and the IN
diana Legislature are working out.
and indicated his message to Con-
gress will contain recommendations
of the national recovery adminis~
tration for helpful state legisla-
ton"
Tells of Message
President Roosevelt's message was
sent to Gov. McNutt to correct mis-
representations that the President
does not desire state NRA legisla-
ton at this time.
Il have no hesitation in making
perfectly plain to vol" President
Roosevelt wired the Governor, "the
extraordinary misintelpretation put
upon my reply at press confer
ence Wednesday to the following
question: Mr. President, are you
asking for state NRA legislation at.
this time?'
ITO this the obvious and correct
answer was no. and this was the
sole reply made by me.
LAS you know the MIRA act ex-
pires June is. 1t is fully expected
that the Congress will shortly pass
a new act extending the life of NF2A
with certain notifications and addi-
tons. 1t is equally clear, except to
those sperSons who seek to muddy
the waters and block progress that
all of us believe the Federal Gov
eminent will receive state co-opera-
ton with this new national legisla-
ton.
Cooperation Is Lauded
II appreciate much the co-opera-
ton which you and the Indiana
Legisla ture are working out.
Within the next few days YOU
will be advised of the general rec
concentrations which I am sending
to the Congress and the suggestions
of the National Recovery Admins
tration for helpful state legislation
to carry forward the industrial re-
covery program"
Strong opposition to the pro-
posed state NRA law followed cir
culation of reports, based upon
newspaper nisinterpretation of the
Presidents attitude, that the Fed
eral Administration does not seek
state laws to supplant the Federal
legislation.

BASKET TEAM
WEAK, STRIKE
GRIPS CAMPUS
More Scholarships Sought
for Franklin Athletes
by Students.
BY Upton S. BLISH
Times staff Writer

FRANKLIN, Feb. 5-BaSketball
this year at Franklin College is just
so-So-the team does its best, but
the material just isn't there!
That's the conviction of the stu
dent body, which is pretty tired of
old grads coming back and men
tioning the old Wonder Five teams
of 1922, '23, and "a. Franklin Col
lege burned up the basketball world
then.
So the students, now burned up
nearly 100 per cent strong, today
are striking and have prepared for
submission to President William
Gear Spencer. D. D., a resolution
asking, pointedly, that more scholar
ships be given in order to benefit
athletes. That, they say, will bring
back to Franklin College the SUI
perior athletes who can make an
other Wonder Five team.
The campus is seething with in
surrection. Glasses we're picketed
yesterday and such classes as are
being held today are guarded by
strikers who ask strike support of
those attending.
Rap Mid VICTORIAN" Standard
Strikers also are avoiding Cur
rent Trends Conference, for which
most classes have been dismissed.
Nevertheless they are attending all
student activities. and this after
noon expected to turn out en- masse
for the sendoff of the basketball
team, which plays tonight at Han
over.
There is an oratorical contest
scheduled for tonight to which all
students p!cs--@ to go, and after that
student leaders expect . meet with
college trustees in an attempt to
iron out their difficulties.
Besides more help for athletes,
they demand a change in standards
which, according to their estimates,
now are mid Victorian. Also, they
want compulsory chapel either
made interesting or abolished.
They want, too, all campus diff
ficulties to be decided by a powerful
student council meeting in arbitra-
ton, with a faculty board. And,
they want a social center for stu
dent activities.
Dean Belittles Revolt
Striking students say they have
the backing of the townspeople, and,
while the faculty has not taken sides
officially. some of them have priv
ately stated that the demands of
the students are fair and just.
Strike plans are in charge of a
committee representing every social
organization on the campus.
Meanwhile Dean P. L. Powell
stated that the administration con-
sidered the strike tempest in a
teapot, and claimed that strikers
were merely an organized and noisy
minority.

CLEAN STREAM
BILL DUE FOR
ADOPTION SOON
Senate Is Expected to Give
Support Early Next
Week.
Editorial Comment on Page e2l

The Indiana anti-stream pollution
bill will be adopted early next week
by the Senate, it was predicted by
General Assembly leaders this aft
ernoon.
Already adopted by the House of
Representatives, the measure now
is being studied by the Senate Nat
tural Resources Committee.
The measure. which gives to the
Department of Commerce and In
dustry power to issue and enforce
pollution abatement orders, is des-
tined to break party lines in the
Senate as it did in the House.
"Therell be no caucus on the bill
as far as the minority are con-
cerned. Every minority member will
be permitted to vote without being
bourd py party caucus" assured
Senator I. Floyd Garrett, Republican
minority leader.
Passage of the bill, with a greater
ma jority than the House vote, is
believed to be assured following the
majority leaders statement.
Evans Deserts Minority
Izaak Walton leagues, conserva-
ton organizations, farmers and
sportsmen bodies throughout the
state are supporting the bill as the
first attempt of an Indiana legisla-
ture to recognize that its streams are
no longer industrial playthings and
must be cleaned up if the health of
municipalities, welfare of livestock,
as well as the growth of fish-life
is to be preserved.
The quick response of legislators
to the mail, and telegram lobby of
farmers and sportsmen was demon
strated in the House when Rep.
Herbert H. Evans CR., Newcastle),
himself an ardent sportsman, de-
serted the minority ranks and spoke
in behalf of passage.
Four Democrats-Reps Edward
C. Simpson, Rockport; Robert L.
Stanton. East Chicago; Joseph E.
Klein, Whit lg, and Dan o. Get
finger, Sullivan, voted against the
measure. Fifteen out of IS Repub-
licans voted no.
Times Campaigns Recalled
The Indianapolis Times, in a
series of articles in the last two
years, has shown the destruction
caused by stream pollution through
out the state. 1t has pointed out
cities where children swan in
waters with the sufficient acid con-
tent to kill livestock. The Times
told of cities polluting their own
drinking and swimming water.
In turn it was shown how correc-
tive measures have been taken by
certain cities through the construc-
ton of sewage disposal plants and
how industries voluntarily ended, in
some cases, their pollution of
streams through plant disposal sys-
TENS of waste recovery methods.
Seriousness of stream pollution in
Indiana is emphasized in the 1884
report of the State Planning Board.
THE state AS a whole has 1917
miles of streams which are seriously
polluted" says the report.
Many of these streams are so
greatly poisoned that fish can not

G. o. P. TO LAUNCH
ATTACK ON BUDGET
S1,577 300 Construction Sum to Be
Target of Debate.
lOther Details on Page TWelvel

Republican strategists, intent on
building campaign material, this
afternoon will launch a bitter at
tack upon the s1,577, 300 lump-sum
construction appropriation in the
executive department section of the
$50,000,000 state budget.
The minority plans to oppose the
lump-sum appropriation in its
present form and will offer amend
ments, one calling for a further re-
duction of official salaries.
The first skirmish took place this

Back In Form Again

Connecticut Is regaining her form. She returns to the status she once held of be- ing the hardest state in the Union to get a constitutional amendment passed In the last few years our Legislature did unbend sufficiently so that the goth and 21st amendments to the Constitution were rati- fled, but before that we were unyielding in our attitude. It must be recalled that Connecticut and Rhode Island refused to have anything to do with the now defunct 18th amendment.
 In 1924 Congress, both houses having passed the joint resolution giving it pow er to regulate and limit child labor, re- ferred the so-called Child Labor amend ment to the several states. The amend ment met with indifferent success. Ar kansas ratified it in 1924; Arizona fol- lowed suit year later, as did California also. There the amendment became dor nant so far as favorable action on it was concerned. There were several instances Qf state Legislatures turning it down. Y But In 1851 interest was revived for some unknown reason and the Child Labor amendment was resurrected and passed by Colorado. Two years later a succession of states took favorable action upon it, in- cluding number of those that had once rejected it. Fortunately for the proposed amendment it contained no clause where by it had to be ratified within prescribed number of years. Up to September 12, 1884, nineteen states had ratified it. Sev- eral have since added their yeas"
 I Connecticut yesterday in the House of Representatives rejected the amendment. We feel confident that the Senate will fol- Dw this example. There is no doubt but VI at sentiment on the question is divided, but 1t is clear that large majority of peo-
