NEW JUVENILE HOME
ISSUE HANGS IN AIR
County Commissions Each
Present Pet Plan.

Each of the County Commissions
ers today showed up with a plan to
solve the Marion County Juvenile
Detention Home problem when they
went to ask the Marion County
Council for funds to do the job.
John A. Newhouse advocated pur-
chase of site in the 300 block on
N. New Jersey-st, and to construct
building there for both the home
and Juvenile Court rooms. He eSti-
mated the cost would be $4,000 to
$4,000, one-third of which would be
Federal funds.
Ernest K. Marker advocated buy
ing a property at the corner of New
York and New Jersey-sts, at price
of $52,500. Remodeled it would cost
between $4,000 and $4,000, he said
Dow w. Vorhies, who took oc-
casion to criticize the Indianapolis
Chamber of Commerce for attempt
ing to influence the decision of
Council, proposed that the county
lease the Eastman Hospital property
Vermont and Delaware -sts, for 10
years at 5000 a month and an OPP
ton to buy for 100000
The council took the matter under
Amusement.

ALDRICH FLAYS
BANK MEASURE
Administration Is Charged
With Trying to Establish
Political Control.

bH JHttcB Press
WASHINGTON, May 15.-Win-
throp w Aldrich, chairman of the
Chase National Bank of New York
this afternoon charged the Admin
istration with attempts to establish
complete political control over the
nations banking system.
He warned that the credit con-
troll machinery proposed in the
pending omnibus bank bill might
have serious consequences" similar
to those which followed periods of
German and French currency inf1a-
ton.
Il find nowhere among the CEN
trail banking organizations abroad so
complete political control as the
present bill provides for" he told a
Senate Banking Subcommittee.
Referring to a feature of the
measure permitting use of Federal
Reserve Banks as a means of
financing for the Treasury, Mr.. Al
drich warned.
The machinery thus provided
corresponds closely with the ma
chinery which was utilized at the
time of the German imitation and
the French imitation with most seri-
Gus consequences to business life
and the welfare of the people. The
use for any length of time of cen
trail bank credit to finance the pub
lie treasury has never succeeded. 1t
has always failed with most serious
consequences to the population as
a whole; and those who have suf-
fered most are the laboring and
middle classes

A gas CRATE, which was turned
on to alleviate the sudden cool snap
last night, was blamed for the fire
The CRATE burned 1he woodwork
along the wall until the lower part
of the residence wax in flames.
Members of the family said that
the crate had been turned off when
they went to bed, but had appar
emily become relit by glowing
spark. Gas fumes and a sitting
heat awakened Mrs. w T. Smith,
II, Mrs. Hoffman's mother. She
aroused Mr.. and Mrs. Hoffman and
Russell Perrin, guest.
Firemen we're constantly in dan
ger because the explosive gas fumes
had spread from the basement to
the attic of the two story house.
Mr.. Hoffman placed the loss at
$1,000.

CHICAGO, May 15.-The valve
on the ether tank stopped kissing.
An anaesthetist said "okay"
through his white mask. A sur

And just then all lights in the
county hospital f1ickered and
went out!
In five seconds a nurse raced
from the panic-f1lled operating
room. In 10 seconds she was back.
She brought two flashlights.
The scalpel cleaned again.
Shaoowy figures worked in the

Twenty minutes after the lights
failed Mr.. Sevec was trundled
back to bed, still unconscious but
successfully relieved of throat
infection by f1ashlight illumina-
ton.
He will recover.

The addition of los school units
to the state aid LIST for 1934-35 has
resulted, the report shows, in a con-
clifton where approximately one
half of the township school units
are helping to support the other
half on common school relief. The
1934-35 unit total is 573 against 468
units in the 1933-34 year
S650.I47 in Claims Disallowed
Despite this fact that approx
mately half of the 1915 Indiana
townships are contributing to the
helpless other half Under 7-cent
levy. the aid townships filed a total
of s650,147.36 in erroneous claims,
which have been disallowed by the
accounts board.
Allowances of S6729.51 over claims
in certain townships resulted in a
net saving of S643.4l7 through the
accounts board audit.
Indiana. under the state aid law,
paid sl,763,054 to make up the
deficit in operating expense in 468
units during the 1933-34 school year
Counties claiming large amounts of
state aid include:
Clay. approximately $4,000; Har-
riSon. $4,000; Greene. $4,000; Mon
roe. $4,000: Crawford. S39. 900: Nor
gan. 10000, and Owen, 100000.
Trend Toward State Support
The law provides that the state
aid townships must levy at least a
so per cent tax levy for the school
yssr, for operation of the schools in
that taxing unit This is in addition
TO the 7-cent state levy. But If
deficit results. the state must pay,
or he rest of the taxing units con-
tribute under the 7-cent levy.
School costs trend during the last
few years in Indiana has been to-
ward state. rather than local sup
port. This trend has been evidenced
throughout the McNutt administra-
ton during which the state has paid
approximately one-third of the COM
mon schools operating cost through
the gross income. intangibles and
excise taxes.

CONVICTION
REVERSED BY HIGH COURT

Defunct City Bank, Wins Appeal to
States Supreme Tribunal
KISER TRIAL COMES TO HALT
Prosecutor Spencer Goes Into Conference
With Atty. Gen. Philip Lutz to
Decide on Latest Decision.

The Indiana Supreme Court today reversed the bankers
embezzement conviction of Melville S. Cohn, former vice
president of the denct MeyerKser Bank and revoked his
two-year prison sentence
Upon learning of the reversal Special Judge Alex 6.

adjourned the trial until this afternoon allow Prosecutor
Herbert NJ Spencer decide what he will take in
the Kiser case.

The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-05-15

The decision was handed
down by Chief Justice Michael
L. Fansler, and it was held
that the lower court had erred
in not granting the defendants mo-
ton for a directed verdict of acquit-
tai
The motion was based on a con-
tention that the evidence did not
support the conviction.
Mr.. COhn was sentenced to from
two to 10 years in the Indiana State
Prison, and fined $1,000.
Spencer Confers With LutZ
Prosecutor Spencer went i'm
mediately to the office of Atty Gen.
Philip Lutz Jr., to check the de-
cision and determine his course.
He can nolle the indictment, or
go on with the trial of Mr.. Kiser
in which no testimony has been
taken. If he goes on with the trial,
the defense undoubtedly would move
for a directed verdict of acquittal
after the state had presented its
evidence.
The reversal came as Mr. Kiser's
attorneys had won several delays in
the trial, in two instances succeeding
in having the entire venire dis
missed on grounds it was improperly
drawn.
Mistake" Possibility Upheld
I'm determining whether the of
GERS and employees of the bank are
guilty of a crime in dealing with
the banks funds there is no rule
than that which is applied to the
affairs of any other business corpo-
ration" the Supreme Court stated.
If an officer or an employee of
corporation exceeds his authority
and the funds of the corporation
are lost he may be civilly liable, and
unless he acts with dishonest mo-
tive he is not guilty of crime" the
decision held.
Criminal intent in embezzlement
is not based on technical mistakes
as to the legal effect of the trans
action honestly entered into" Judge
Fansler wrote.
Wilson Not Surprised"
Until he had digested the opinion,
Prosecutor Spencer would not say
whether it would affect the charges
against bankers in other defunct
institutions against whom he re-
Gently filed affidavits.
Superior Judge Herbert E. Will
son, who was county prosecutor
when Mr. Cohn was indicted and
convicted, said he was not surprised
by the Supreme Courts decision.
Our Supreme Court Judge VIII
son remarked, apparently is con-
sistent with other courts of other
states.
Charges against bankers are
charges Of mistakes of judgment Of
bank officials and not violation Of
criminal laws The Indiana SUI
preme Court never has affirmed a
conviction under the bankers en-
bezzlement act and I am Of the
opinion they never will"
Opposed action, Says Wilson
Judge Wilson recalled he had OPP
posed the action Of a former grand
jury in indicting Mr Cohn and
other officers of the defunct bank.
L protested" the judge said,
against the grand jurys action in
returning the indictment, but had
no legal authority to disapprove the
indictment"
Circuit Court Judge Earl R Cox,
in whose court an investigation Of
the bank closures was made by Al
yah J. Rucker, special investigator,
would not comment until he had an
opportunity TO examine the deci-
sion.
