'SALOON-R RESTAURANTS ARE
SCORED BY READER

ONOICLO ID hLf1OLh
BY II. C. Wilson.
The majority OF the electorate
who voted the return of liquor did
so with the view that the evils Of
the old saloon days would be banned
forever. NOW compare the condi-
lions in Indianapolis today with the
old saloon days.
Today about every restaurant is a
saloon, SO if a person wants de-
cent meal free from the liquor en-
vironment it is difficult to find such
a place. In most of these reStau-
rart-saloons the bar is in full view
of women and children eating in
these places. They must hear all
the lewd conversations and see all
the rough conduct that always de-
velops when a bunch Of good fellows
get together and get few cocktails
and highballs under their belts.
Women were not permitted to stand
at the bar and drink in the old
saloon days, but today it is very
smart for the women to stand at
the bar and drink with their men
and go them one better in swapping
dirty stories. in these restaurant
saloons.
In these Recommendations young
women gather to. sell drinks.
Where are the women'S organi-
cations? The Christian mothers
militant? The cultured men and
women of Indiana?
Ill fares the land, to Fastening ills
a prey,
Where wealth accumulates, and
men decay"

of the Wagner bill which practically

PRESIDENT SEES REAL

It certainly looks as if New York's

jects. If you don't agree with me
WE'LL just think of some of the things

vaccine against infantile paralysis
and dry heat cure for sinus and
deafness. And don't think these
doctors thought Of these gifts to
humanity while shaving No, sir,
years of selfish, heart breaking toll
has gone into them. So how about
asking Mr.. Winchell for some or
chids for this cause, and don't feel
shy about offering your own homely

Down in Washington, Senator
Glass of Virginia objects to the Adj

Fee System Still
In Vogue to Curb
Fishing for Bass
Act of Congress Gives
Half Of Fine to
Officer.


The fee system, often termed the
most obsolete manner of remunera-
tion in law enforcement, still is in
effect in the District.
This was brought to light by As
sistant Corporation Counsel George D.
Nelson in Police Court today when
officials Of the harbor precinct asked
instructions as to enforcement Of an
old act Of Congress prohibiting fish
ing for bass in the Potomac River
during the spawning season from
April l to May 20.
Under the act. any officer arresting
or causing the arrest of any violator
is entitled to half the fine imposed.
The minimum fine is $40 and the
maximum S100. with an alternative
of not more than six months in Jail.
The Harbor Precinct was instructed
to enforce the law and was informed
that persons fishing from the Virginia
side also are subject to arrest, since
the Potomac is District property to
the high-water mark. Virginia au-
thorities have promised cooperation
in enforcement.

By the Associated Press.

BERLIN, April A short item on
the inside page of a newspaper made
the Offices of foreign correspondents
buzz with excitement last night. The
item said:
1.-THE Supreme Court has decided
that business rooms and dwelling
places of foreign ENJOYS accredited to
the Reich are not to be regarded as
extraterritorial."
Inquiry at the ministry Of prop
aganda brought the reply that ex-
Intentionally has not been abolished,
but the spokesman was unable to ex-
plain the reason for the published
announcement. Neither could the
official news agency explain it.
In diplomatic quarters it was ex-
planned that a foreign envoy cannot
be touched personally, but that this
does not apply to his home or
office. excepting where his country's
escutcheon is displayed with the ap-
proval of the foreign Office
Thus. no extraterritoriality can be
claimed by members of legations at
their private dwellings.
Diplomats expressed belief the
Supreme Courts order was due to
desire to prevent undesirable foreign
refugees from claiming asylum in their
missions.

CAPITOL EXTENSION
BILL REPORTED OUT
Hope Expressed President May
Allocate Funds Out of Work.
Relief Appropriation.

The long-p pending plan to extend
and complete the east front of the
old central portion Of the Capitol
appeared nearer to being carried out
than at any time in the past when
the Senate Public Buildings and
Grounds Committee made favorable
report yesterday on the Connally bill.
The question has been debated in
Congress for many years. Hope was
expressed by some members Of the
committee that President Roosevelt
may allocate funds out of the new
work relief bill for this project. Sem
ator Walsh, Democrat, of Massa-
chusetts, chairman of a special sub
committee, discussed the matter with
the President recently. In a state
ment issued yesterday. Senator Con-
nally, Democrat, of Texas, chairman
Of the Building and Grounds Com
mittee, said:
1T will be recalled that the central
part of the Capitol was constructed
at a much earlier date than the two
wings. The material Of which the
central portion is constructed Is sand
stone, while the two wings are Of
marble. The central portion was
burned by the British in 1914 and,
because of discoloration, has had to
be painted from time to time. The
plan involves the extension Of the
east front and the possible construc-
ton of that front Of marble to har-
monize with the two wings. The
extension Is also deemed desirable in
order that it may more completely
harmonic architecturally with the
Senate and House wings"
The cost is estimated at not to
exceed $500, 900.

Disposed Of.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, April 4.-Andrew
w. Mellon. insisting he did not own
any part Of $40 100000 worth of bank
stocks while Secretary of the Treas
ury, explains how his son Paul ac-
quired the securities 10 years after the
father says he disposed of them.
The question was brought up by
Robert H. Jackson, counsel for the
Internal Revenue Bureau, who called
the 80-year-old flnancier back to the
stand today for his fourth day Of
croSs-examination.
Quizzed on Note.
A Sl0000,000 note given by the late
r. B. Mellon for the stock when his
brother Andrew went to Washington
in 1921 was the subject of long cross
examination yesterday by the Govern
ment attorney, who has contended the
former Treasury Secretary actually
dominated the Union Trust Co. and
thereby was able to bring about "ac-
commodation sales" of stocks. The
Government claims Mellon should pay
s3,089,000 additional on his 1881 in
come.
The white-haired witness testified
concerning his contention he had quail
ified himself as Treasury Secretary
that he had absolutely sold" the stock
to his brother. 1t previously had been
stated that Paul Mellon, grandson of
Banker Thomas Mellon, founder of
the family fortune, had assumed re-
sponsibility for the debt in 1881.
Explains Transaction.
Asked for details on just how Paul
happened to take over the stock,
Mellon said:
"AS I understand it. my brother
said to Mr.. johnson Howard H. John
SOM. my secretary, that he would like
to be relieved Of this Indebtedness and
to dispose of the stocks. He thought
that I would be agreeable to having
Paul acquire those stocks and take
his place and assume the liability
to me.
Then the matter was brought to my
attention and it was agreeable to me
and I arranged to have the transfer"
jackson in his questions brought out
that interest on the note Mellon took
from his brother was increased from
51s per cent to 8 per cent during the
II years 1t was outstanding. The
witness also testified that r. B. Mellon
gave him about s37o.o00 when the
stock was taken over by Paul. the
amount representing the dividends
paid by the stocks which had not
been paid to Mellon as interest.

Near the Shinbone Of his right leg

You helped my wife torture me. You
went into the kitchen and brought
the matches that she lit to burn the
bottom of my feet. When she wanted
to stab me with that dagger you
brought it to her"
Miss Hurd denied the accusations.
Hurd was arrested early yesterday

wife with a bullet wound in the chest,

ROYALIST JUBILEE
HIT BY LABORITE
Parliament Votes $3.50, 900 for
Event After Attack on
Monarchical System.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, April 4.-The British
government had parliamentary ap-
proval today for a $3.50, 900 appropria-
ton for the royal silver jubilee cele-
bration, but the price paid for it was
another embarrassing attack on the
British monarchical system.
The sensational outburst of John
McGovern, Laborite member, in the
presence of King George on the oc-
casion of the opening of Parliament
more than year ago was recalled as
his lean, hollow-eyed GLASGOW COL
league, James Maxton, denounced the
lavish jubilee plans as "monarchist
propaganda"
Although the little radical group
from GLASGOW opposed the bill, the
regular Socialist ranks, sometimes
called "his majesty's official opposi-
ton" were split on the issue. Sir
Stafford Cripps and other Laborites
registered their opposition by abstain
ing from voting.
Stocky McGovern, who recently re-
newed his attacks on what he called
this kinging business" described the
jubilee expenditures as disgrace.
