The politicians seem to have about worked
themselves out in their attacks on railroads and
public utilities. They have taxed and regulated
those industries to death, and caused the in

earning power in a majority Of cases.
Now oil is to go on the rack. The demand

DiSregarding the advice of au-
thoritieS and the pleas of other
foreigners to flee from the rebels,
members of the same armies which
last year murdered two Americans,
the five remained on duty in the city
of Chengtu, capital of Szechuan.
Almost the only foreigners left in
the threatened city, Miss Beulah
BaSsett of Los Angeles, Miss Esther
Nelson of Minneapolis, and DrS. A.
E. Best of Ottawa, Ontario; E. G.
MILFORD of Toronto, and E. N. Meus-
er risked a fate which has over
taken many mission workers in the
heart of China in recent years.
Even after the Chengtu Women's
Hospital had been closed and all
but one of the Chinese attached to
the institution had fed, Miss Nelson
stood by to render what medical
aid she could to the people Of the
city. The Canadian physicians re-
manned with her.
Miss Bassett, leader of the Ameri-
can Baptist Foreign Missionary
Society forces in the province,
directed the evacuation of her asso-
ciateS, but at last reports she her
self was still in the danger zone.
Reports from the interior said
that the rebels were swarming over
the province, pillaging as they drove
toward Chengtu They captured
twelve busloads of Chinese refugees
in the Longchueni hills and robbed
them of all their possessions.
For the first time airplaneS were
used to carry foreigners to the safe
ty of the river and seaport cities
where gun boats and marines are
available for their protection. A
plane Of the Chinese National Air
ways, subsidiary of Pan-Aulerican
Always, made three trips between
Chengtu and Chunking to bring out
women and children.
Among those already evacuated
were the following Canadians: Mrs.
H. B. Collier and two children, one

THOUSANDS IN CITY
Churches Report Capacity
Attendance for Day.

Easter services, marked by a
large and assorted program of spe-
cial music, were generously attended
yesterday in Indianapolis as a spark
ling sky contributed to the beauty
of the occasion.
All churches reported capacity at
tendance, and nearly $1,000 gathered
on the Circle for the annual sun
rise carol singing.
Streets were filled with worshipers
on their way to and from services,
and several traffic jams developed
after services. In the afternoon all
highways were filled with cars, and
the many golf courses we're well at
tended.
Sartorially, Easter was grand
success. Although most of the
gentlemen of the Easter parade did
not get theatrical enough for top
hats. they we're colorful enough to
contribute a geserous sprinkling of
light suits and brilliant neckties, and
the women spared nothing in the
way of smartly tailored, gay suits,
and dazzling millinery.

WARM SPELL HERE
AFTER LIGHT FROST
Today and Tomorrow to Be
Fair, Is Promise.

Although light frost was reported
from various weather stations in
Indiana this morning, forecasters
believe that today and tomorrow
will be ideal for golfers and other
outdoor sport enthusiasts.

ogist here, predicted cloudy and
warmer conditions for tonight and
tomorrow with no cold waves or
dust in view. The skies will be
cloudy at intervals. but there is
little prospect for rain, Mr.. Arm
ington said.
The frost was not damaging. Mr..
Arlington added, because the only
places where it was reported heavy
were in the northern portion of the
state where spring planting is not
far advanced.
Temperatures here yesterday were
kept slightly below normal due to
chilly northern breezeS. The wind
is expected to switch from north
and northeast to south and south
west late today.

.HUEY BLASTS
AT NEW DEAL
Calls Ickes 'Chinch Bug of
Chicago in TRADE
Before Senate.
By United Press

BY CHued Press
WASHINGTON, April 22.--Huey
Long today delivered a blast of
epithetS against the New Deal, de-
claring that it's officials had been
"anointed and appointed" instead
of being truly representative of the
people.
Speaking before the largest crowd
OF the session, Long was limited to
40 minutes under a ruling by Vice
President John N. Garner
He wore bright summer clothes
that brought a gasp of surprise
from the packed galleries, when he
breezily entered the chamber a few
minutes after noon.
Quickly gaining the floor for his
promised speech, the Kingfsh went
down the line of New Deal officials
with a derogatory epithet for each.
This is what Long called them:
Secretary Harold L. Itkes, with
whom Long has been quarreling
over public works funds:
Lord High Chamberlain Ickes
the chinch bug of Chicago
Secretary Henry Wallace. "The
lord destroyer; the ignoramus of
Iowa"
Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, NRA's
first administrator, Hugh Sitting
Bull johnson, the expired and la
mented."
During his TRADE, Long struck di-
rectly at President Roosevelt.

be re-inf1icted upon Louisiana the
rottenest, most corruptive form of
political debauchery ever known and

Both she and her husband, police
said, were afflicted with tuberculosis.
Mr.. Gardner brooded over the fact,
offering a theoretical cause for his
act.
Both Mr.. Gardner and his daugh-
ter were employed by the First Ma
tional Bank Of Chicago. His daugh-
ter was former student of the Uni
verSity Of Georgia.

per cent. Charges for water were
dropped S67,445 or 1.35 per cent.
All other rate reductions aggregated

Work Being Completed
The report declares that the en-
cheering and accounting depart
ments and all facilities of the COM
mission for making complete ap-
praisals and audits have been en-
ployed constantly on formal rate
Investigations. through to March,
1885, the second anniversary of the
new commission.
AT present, work is being COM
pleted on the Indianapolis Power
and Light Co. case. Other cases on
which engineers and accountants
have worked are the larger North
ern Indiana Public Service Co. prop
critics; the Gary Heat, Light and
Water Co., the Public Service Co. of
Indiana and the Indianapolis Water
Co.
IF, as contended by some," the
report declares" the commission can
do nothing toward adjusting, reduc-
ing or determining the rates for
utility service until after the prop
erty of the utility is inventoried,
priced and appraised, and the books
and accounts audited, then no relief
could be given to patrons even in
cases where the utilities admit and
the commission is convinced that
the rates are excessive, discrimina-
tory and unlawful.
COnstrue Law Differently
THE commission does not so con-
strue the law, but is of the opinion
that it is the duty of the commits
sion to resort to every method and
means helpful in determining rates
to be charged for utility service and
it is believed that the law is SO writ
ten and should be so construed and
applied"
In the Public Service Co. of Indi-
ana case, instituted early in 1898,
the commission established the
method of citing utilities to show
cause why their alleged high rates
should not be reduced. Attention
was called to section of the
statutes, which declares unjust and
unreasonable rates to be prohibited
and unlawful.
After the order had been written
carrying 100000 of electric rate re-
duction to consumers in General and
southern Indiana, the commission
served notice upon all other utility
companies that unless they promptly
submitted offers to make all rea-
Sonable reductions in their rates, the
commission would issue show
cause" orders against each, individ-
ually.
The result was that nearly
100000 of reductions were OBJ
tanned by this method with no
greater expense to the commission
than cents for each $40 of saw
ings, whereas formal rate proceed
ings with complete inventories and
appraisals cost 100000 and pro-
duced little more than 100000 of
savings at a cost of So for each SO
of rate reduction.
The present Public Service Com
mission is comprised of Perry Nc
Cart, Paoli, chairman; Samuel L.
Trabue. Rushville, and Mole Cook,
