Pope Leads Roman Catholic
World in Observance of
Savior'S Death on Cross
of Calvary.

By United Press
VATICAN CITY. April 19-Pope
Plus today led the Roman Catholic
world in observance of Good Fri
day.
The pope attended a solemn cere-
mony concentrating the cruel
fixion of Christ at the Sistine Chap
ell, with cardinals and members of
the Papal Court accompanying him.
The Mass of the Pre- Sanctioned
and the singing of the Passion and
the Tenebrae we're features of the
service.
The Mass of the Pre- Sanctioned
was celebrated at all churches in
Rome, and there were professions
inside churches to honor the relics
of the True Cross.
High affairs and Sanctuaries were
Invested of ornaments. Priests and
their ministers we're vested in black.
Procession in Chapel
In many churches the three
hours" were preached in memory
of the three hours during which
Christ was on the cross. The SER
mons consisted principally of dis
courses on the seven words" or
sayings of the Lord.
Numerous old Roman churches,
now opened only once a year be-
cause they are not used as parish
churches, we're visited by the faith
full and by tourists.
There we're important services at
st. Peters and the Pasilica of St.
John Lateran.
At st. Peters, there was a pro-
cesSion to the chapel to the relics
of the True Cross, and at st. John
Lateran, remains of boards on
which, according to tradition, Christ
gave the last supper were shown.
Pope Kisses Cross
Pope Plus and nine cardinals at
tended the mass at the Sistine
Chapel. The Pope descended from
his throne, removed his surplice and
knelt thrice before he kissed the
cross which Cardinal Rossi placed
before him. Afterward the Cardi-
mails, barefooted, also kissed the
cross.
Father Virgilio Da Valstagna
preached the sermon. Father Lo-
renzo Perosi conducted the choir,
which rendered the Lords Lamen-
tation.
After the Sistine Chapel service,
the Pope and his party went to the
Paolina Chapel, where the Pope
prayed at the shrine.

aid funds.
The action was taken after the
Governor attacked President Roose-
welt and the New Deal, and the
state Legislature failed to appropri-
ate its own funds to augment Fed
eral grants.
Mr.. hopkins, in announcing fed
eralization of Georgia relief. said
that all Federal funds for direct
relief will be discontinued not later
than June l.
After that, he said, direct relief
will become the responsibility of
the state and local governments. -
Mr. Hopkins named Miss Gay B..
Shepperson. Atlanta. director of
Federal relief in Georgia. Taking
over of Georgia brought to three
the number of states in which Mr..
Hopkins is administering relief
without any part being played by
state governments.
He federalized unemployment aid
in Ohio, charging the Democratic
state committee with shaking
down business firms doing bust
ness with FERA, and in Louisiana,
where Senator Huey P. Long at
tempted to interfere.
More than 1000 families are on
general relief in Georgia, not count
ing beneficiaries OF rural rehabili-
taton, transient care and other spe-
cial programs.
Georgia also felt the sting of an
order by Public Works Adninistra-
tor Harold l.. Ickes canceling S210,-
900 in construction allotments. The
action was taken aver Gov. Tai
madge vetoed a bill to validate
bonds posted as collateral for-PWA
loans.

Formal signature was eX-
pected when Laval visits Mos
cow on his delayed trip late in
May.
The treaty binds France and Rus
STA to mutual aid against an ag-
gressor which could only be Ger
many. The treaty will be left open
for signature by Germany or any
other nation.
It's articles, as now drafted. are
three in number They provide for
invocation of Articles XIV, XVI and
XVII of the League of Nations
covenant to provide first economic
and financial, then military, penal
ties, against an attacking nation.
Another Treaty Ready
The treaty is to be supplanted
next month by a Russian Czecho-
slovakian treaty of similar import.
There we're reports that the treaty
would be made to cover an attack
by Poland on Czechoslovakia, and
that it would be understood that if
Germany attacked France and Po-
land remained neutral, Russia
would bring pressure on Poland,
However, it was regarded as un-
likely that any such understanding
ever would be made public par
ticularly as Poland has shown in
creasing signs of again reorienting
herself with France.
Statesmen of Czechcslovakia, Ru-
mania. Yugoslavia. Turkey and
Greece were reported preparing to
demand that if Austria. Bulgaria
and Hungary are permitted to re-
arm, the ymust pledge themselves to
accept existing frontiers as final.
Laval Reports to Cabinet
This demand would be made at
the Rome conference to be called
late in May by Benito Mussolini
for the conclusion of Danubian and
Mediterranea an security treaties.
1t was reported that at this meet
ing, also. Austria and Czechoslo-
vakia might sign a direct mutual
aid treaty.
Laval reported to the cabinet IN
detail on the StreSa conference and
the League of Nations council meet
ing and was congratulated warmly
on his success.
The cabinet studied the draft Of
the Russian treaty, which Is still
subject to alteration before its final
signature next month.

City Bows Its Head in
Humble Reverence to
Savior on Good Friday
Thousands Hear Sermons in
Churches and TheaterS;
Business PauSeS for
Prayer and Mediation.

The attention of all Indianapolis
today was called to the greatest par
adox of all time-the Cross that was
dead but is the symbol of life-the
Cross that is the symbol of victory
in failure.
Around this Cross, all Indianapo-
lis was told today, gathered ecclesi-
astical prejudice. political chicanery,
militarism ard materialism-and
they joined forces to put Christ to
death.
And around that same Cross to-
day gather those same forces,
worshipers on this Good Friday
were told by men who now represent
Christ on earth.
Methodist Superintendent Speaks
The observance of Good Friday
will have its divinest use if it pro-
duces in us the conviction of sin,
and leads us to repentance. This
way lies salvation, said DR.. william
c. Hartinger, Methodist Episcopal
Church Indianapolis Superintend-
ent. at Keith's Theater.
In the cross" he said, I'VE see
the revelation of sacrifice as the law
of redemption and progress. The
cross is a revelation in visible and
historical form of the grief and pain
of a God who suffers for and with
His children"
DR.. William E. Bell spoke at
English's this afternoon, saying:
This is the darkest hour in all
human history. All the deviltry of
which the human heart is capable
has mustered itself and spilled
itself out here on Calvary's hill.
There is mystery there we shall
never be able to fathom.
Christ Dominates World
eff the atonement were not too
wide for our intellectual apprehen-
sion, it would be too narrow for
our spiritual necessities
But through the maze of mys-
terry, one fact becomes apparent:
This is Gods method of reckoning
with the sin problem"
At noon in English's the Rev.
w. H. Kendall said:
Christ claims through the power
of the Gross to dominate the world.
The dream of universal empire has
always exercised powerful fascina-
ton upon the minds of men. To the
militant imagination it seems at
tainable only through the force Of
arms and ruthless subjugation.
But to Jesus the Cross was the
power of God and the wisdom of
God. It's teachings of righteousness
and service constituted an ideal of
human government which will make
the whole race kin, uniting all the
scattered tribes of earth in one in
dissoluble brotherhood"
Courthouse, City Hall Closed
And so from many pulpits in
many churches came words about
the Cross, the greatest paradox of
all time, while Indianapolis paused
in its business operations once again
to, take stock of its religious life.
In every section of the city the
hours between noon and o. NJ.
we're reserved for prayer and medi-
tation.

FOOD AT JAIL
IS TERRIBLE
INMATES CRY
Meals Are Inadequate and
Poorly Cooked, Claim of
Former Prisoners.
COMMISSARY is OPENED
insufficient Number of
Blankets Is Another
Charge.

Following the announcement by
Sheriff Otto Ray. of the establish
ment of a commisSary in Marion
County Jail, today came complaints
from recently discharged prisoners
OF inadequate and poorly cooked Jail
meals
A former prisoner, discharged
Monday after serving term for
contributing to child delinquency,
told The indianapolis Times the
food served prisoners is hardly edi-
BILE. This former prisoner charged
the morning oatmeal and prunes
are practically uncooked; that coffee
is served only at breakfast and then
without milk, and that water only is
served at the other meals.
Prisoners will be required, this
former prisoner charged, to buy
food at the commiSsary.
Claim Some Sleep on Floor
The Times also was told there are
insufficient blankets for the prison
ers and that six or seven men &C.
cupy cells in the buns row."
Some prisoners are required to
sleep on the floor, it was charged.
Charles Marley, chief jailer, de-
MED the charges, and asserted since
Sheriff Ray took Office Jan. /, the
prisoners have received better food
than ever before.
The prisoners never knew what
pruneS were until Jan. when Sher-
if Ray took Office" Mr.. Marley
said. Sheriff Ray has tried to give
the prisoners good and wholesome
food. In fact he has employed a
chef who directs the cooking and
who inspects the foodstuffs as they
are received"
Cigarets, Candy Sold
Mr.. Markey said it is uncommon
for his office to be complimented
by prisoners for the quality of the
Jail meals.
Vigorous denial was made that
prisoners are required to buy addi-
tional food at the Jail commissary.
Only cigarets and candy are sold
at the commisSary, Mr.. Marley de-
clared.
The practice of permitting visitors
to leave cigarets and candies for
prisoners has been discontinued, Mr..
Markey said, in an effort to prevent
the smuggling of narcotics and other
contraband into the Jail.
Meanwhile a committee of mem
berS of the County Council is con-
Quoting an investigation of condi-
tons at the Jail.
Not Running a Hotel
AT recent meeting of the Coun-
Gil. the committee was not ready to
report, but presented an informal
report of an insufficient number of
employees.
The former prisoner told The
Times the MONDAY meals at the Jail
consist of beans, stewed potatoes
and water.
Macaroni and water are served at
night, the former prisoner said.
Mr.. Markey claimed today the
prisoners are served good vegetables
and other wholesome, inexpensive
meals.
