FEARS USELESS
Says Workers Are to Be

Consolidation.

Interests of indianapolis railroad
employees are to be protected IN

seph B. Eastman, Federal co-ordina-

In letter to Rep. Louis Ludlow,
Mr.. Eastman said:
Rail workers are more appre-

circumstances. The number of en-
ployes in the service of carrier
shall not be reduced, by reason of
any action taken pursuant to the
authority of this title, below the
number as shown in the pay rolls
for the month of May, 1888
Leaders of II rail unions decided
Saturday to fight the proposed con-
solidation on the grounds that it
would result in unemployment for
1000 men and decrease efficiency.

stakes in fitting proportion to a
million dollar" attraction Will lang
in the balance on the outcome Of
the Notre Dame Ohio State game
here Saturday.
With a capacity crowd of ap-
proximately 10000 assured, tickets
in the hands Of scalpers bring high
prices. Hotel rates are at BOOM
time levels. The throng which
gathers for the premier contest of
the season is expected to spend
close to S1,000,000 here.
The prizes for which the Irish
and Buckeye players will battle
can't be measured entirely in terms
of cold cash, but few collegiate
teams have played in recent seasons
for greater stakes.
To Ohio State a victory Saturday
will be another step toward the

mean the elimination of years Of
waiting for claim to mythical
national championship.
The game offers to Francis A.
Schmidt, the tall Texan who in
two seasons changed from prac-
tically an unknown to one of the
coaching professions outstanding
figures, an opportunity to increase
his neW-found prestige.
Just as great are the incentives
for the South Bend Ramblers. It is
the paramount game on their
schedule. Just as victory would
send championship hopes of Ohio
soaring, triumph would likewise
practically assure Elmer Layden's
eleven Of having a finger in the title

To Layden a triumph would mark
the greatest accomplishment of a

RadiocastS of night traffic courts,
heavy fines and ample publicity, are
declared the best means for reducing
the traffic toll in the Hoosier cap
ital by Capt Lewis L. Johnson,
traffic department executive, and
Municipal Judges Charles J. Kara
bell and Dewey Myers.
I'VE tried civilian police several
years ago and the result did not
prove worthy of the effort" claimed
Capt Johnson.
Persons arrested wanted to be
confronted with their accuSers. In
some cases the citizen police, bust
ness men, did not care to be called
into court day after day, with the
result that traffic violation cards
we're not sent in by them" the traf-
fic department head explained.
A variation of the Detroit eX
pertinent has been used for some
months in the city with motorcycle
patrolmen assigned to districts and
made responsible for accidents and
reckless driving in their districts,
Capt. johnson said.
Heavy Fines Favored
He echoes the opinion of other
traffic experts that moderately
heavy fines, even for first offenses,
serve as one of the best means to
deflate the ballooning traffic acct
dent rate.
Municipal Judge Karabell agrees
that heavy fines aid in reducing the
traffic toll.
"a law forcing pedestrians to
cross the street at the same time as
vehicles would aid in keeping down

accidents. Only the other day I
stopped on a street corner and in a
short time saw woman almost get
hit by a street car, and another
nearly suffer serious injury in a bus
accident" he said.
The municipal judges are do-
ing everything possible to cooper
ate with the police department in
reducing traffic accidents" Judge
Karabell said.
Judge Myers doubted the eff
cheney of traffic detectives if the
public did not receive them in the
right spirit.
They're quick to think most of
the time that all policemen desire
to do is to arrest some one" the
judge said.
Chief Raises Question
Both judges; however, were of the
opinion that "snooping" on speed
ers should not be classed by the
public in the same category as
"snooping' in the days of the dry
laws.
Chief Morrissey says a state law
which requires only uniformed men
may make arrests for highway vio-
lations might prevent plainclothes
officer or even a citizen from par
ticipating in a traffic detective force
Appeal of Detroit officials that
property owners turn over their lots
in congested areas for free parking
places was declared a fine thing
by Chief Morrissey with a laughing
proviso, eff you can get them to dc

In the first half Of last year, for
instance, 1902 cases were dropped
from local relief This year. In the
same period, only ll,s75 were dis

Between January and June, last
year, 1860 cases we're reopened. The

COMPARATIVELY few persons are
now getting on the Washington
relief rolls. That is a sure sign pros
perity has turned the corner.
With the general all-round i'm

wonders why more relief measures

about one for every ~ cases. Two
years ago many persons on relief

The cost then per case was s27.71.
