KERN SURVEYS
CITY SALARIES
Research Held in Connec-
ton With His Pledge to
Restore Cuts:
BY JOHN MURPHY

Mayor Kern announced today
that a survey of salaries paid mu-
nicipal employees is under way in
connection with his pledge to city
firemen and police of restoration
of 7la per cent of their pay cuts,
made four years ago.
The survey is to determine the
duties of each employe and proper
remuneration, as compared to the
performance of similar tasks in
private business. Representatives
of the Chamber Of Commerce who
are experienced in compiling such
statistical information and data are
assisting with the survey.
In an address before a second
group of 300 firemen yesterday, he
reiterated his plan to restore be-
tween one-third and One-half CT
the Is per cent salary slash.
with the dispute over the $127,-
900 in gasoline taxes settled in
favor of the city, and with the new
state beverage act not impairing
our funds to between 100000 and
$500, 900, as we had feared, we be-
lieve that the wages should and
can be restored partially" he said.
ut has been revealed to me- the
mayor said, that there are en-
ployes in the same department, do
ing exactly the same work, whose
salaries vary as much as $40 a
month. 1 am opposed to a hori-
zontal increase in wages, but be-
lieve that cases OF this type should
be equaliZed."

Two Heavily Armed Outlaws
Get $500 From Ohio

INDIANA ROADS GUARDED
Three Employees Locked in
Mushroom as Pair

Indiana state police pa
trolled the highways from

this afternoon in search of
two bandits, armed with a
submachine gun and an au-
tomato pistol, who held up
the Fort Recovery (O.) bank.
The gunner escaped with $500

town just across the state line from
Portland, Ind. Driving a Chevrolet,
the bandits were reported speeding
west toward Indiana.
State police from Anderson, Rich
mond and Fort Wayne were sum-
moned to guard all roads along the
Indiana border.
Bandit Well-Dressed
A handsome, well-dressed man of
30 years entered the bank this
morning and asked change for a
$40 bill. AS George HORNE, assistant
cashier, started to make the change,
the bandit walked around the CASH
ier's cage, drawing an automatic
pistol.
His accomplish stood with a sub
machine gun guarding two girl
bookkeepers. The holdup was effected
so quickly and quietly no one knew
OF it until several minutes later
when the three victims broke down
the door of Mushroom, in which
they had been locked, and broadcast
the alarm.

FOUR OUT IN FRONT
IN REPUBLICAN RACE
Springer Evans, Hills and
Rogers Seen in Lead.
BY ARCH STEINEL

Four G.. o. P. candidates for the
gubernatorial nomination - Ray
mond S. Springer, Herbert H.
Evans, Glen Hills, and Eliza Rogers
today were seen by observers as
having the most delegate strength
promised in the May S primary.
Their strength is credited to the
fact that they have devoted more
time to missionary work in lining
up probable delegates in congress
sional districts and to what is
termed their wide appeal among
Republican organization workers.
In addition TO the big Four"
the following are said to be in a
receptive. mood and listed in the
dark horse category: Mayor Clare
Bangs, Huntington, bitter foe of
public utilities; George r. Hill,
Michigan City accountant: and
Mayor Samuel Beecher, Terre Haute.
These three, with the Big Four, q"
are the only avowed candidates so
far.
Wherever the politically minded
gather, however, in hotels, or else
where, lip-service is given a host
of other possibilities, but most of
these, it should be noted, are not
taken too seriously.

The prestige of the League was at
stake, threatening to discredit it SO
that the entire machinery of in
ternational cooperation m g h t
break down, paving the way for a
return to the old pre-war system of
separate alliances.
France, desperately seeking to
avoid break with Italy because she
wants the latter's support against
Germany, feared that Britain would
insist on stricter sanctions against
Mussolini which might lead to war.
The Councils Committee of 10,
representing the entire council with
out Italy, decided its peace efforts
had been futile and adjourned until
tomorrow.
In view of the gravity of the situa-
ton, the committee decided to con-
woke a full session of the Council on
Monday to decide whether Musso-
lini can be permitted to follow his
relentless course or must be forcibly
restrained.
Italy and Ethiopia will sit With the
council and have an oppoi unity to
state their cases. The Girls will be
discussed publicly.

Secretary, was reported to have in
sisted on the public dis ussion so
that all members would De obliged

BY United Press
NUTLEY, N. j., April II.
"A three-car Erie Railroad
passenger train was held up
today by seven men at the
Walnut-st station here, less
than 10 miles from Manhat-
tan.
The bandits, armed with
sawed-off shotguns, escaped
IN a green sedan.
The amount of the loot was
$958.35. Newark police first re-
ported that $4,000 was taken, but
this later was disproved The Ameri-
can Express Co. and the railway
agreed on the lesser amount.
Three of the bandits leaped into
the baggage car, drew a bead on
Baggage Master George Duffey and
forced him to turn over the keys to
the strong box.
Three Others Stand Guard
Three others stood guard on the
platform while the seventh re-
manned in their automobile.
The gunner made no attempt to
touch mail and they operated with
such speed and daring that few of
the $50 passengers on the train were
aware of the holdup, first in
many years in the metropolitan
area.
Road officials said that all the
money taken was in silver and was
in four canvas bags. 1t repre-
sented railroad receipts.
1t was believed the bandits fled
for New York City. Police watched
all routes by which they might en-
ter the metropolis.
The train was bound from Pater-
son to Jersey City.

COST IS URGED
U. S. Approval Asked by
Head of Beech Grove
Organization.
INVOLVES 600 FAMILIES
Residences for Part-Time
Employees of Big Four
Shops Is Goal.
BY TOM OCHILTREE

Bert Wilhelm, president and or
ganizer of the National Suburban
Homestead Society of America, to-
day sought Federal approval of
proposed $2,500,0OO housing project
for 600 Beech Grove families.
Federal Housing Administration
officials are expected to arrive here
from Washington within the next
few days to check our plans" he
said. IF we get their consent, build
ing operations will be started within
so days"
Six hundred members of the
homestead society have pledged
100000 for purchase of a site for
the proposed project, he said. They
hope the Reconstruction Finance
Corp. will loan money to build the
homes, and that the FILA will be-
come the insuring agency, Mr.. Will
helm said.
Cost $4,000 to $4,000
"These houses are to be built on
to be in the price range of $4,000
to $4,000, if this money is received"
he said. Our members make an
average salary of $1,000 year, and
they want to live in modern homes
that they can pay for over 30
year period at three and one-half
per cent interest.
Since the depression, local bank
ing institutions do not consider a
man making such salary a good
financial risk. That is why the COM
munity needs this Federal loan.
1.-THE society has representatives
in 140 industrial and commercial
institutions in the city, but the ma
Jority of the membership is drawn
from part-time employees of the Big
Four Railroad Beech Grove shops"
he said.
These shops have a pay roll of
$1,000 an hour, and yet only 500 of
that amount is spent in Beech
Grove he claimed. Large num-
bers OF Big Four employees are un-
able to find homes in that section.
Housing Facilities Poor
Last year the Cleveland shop
was closed, and employees with
seniority were moved here" Mr..
Wilhelm said. Because of the poor
housing facilities in Beech Grove
the railroad had to run two special
trains, carrying between 100 to 22O
workers, to Cleveland every week.
end"
This statement was substantiated
by E. A. Norton. an official of the
Eesettlement Administration, who
made a preliminary survey of the
project several months ago.
Two sites are proposed, options
on each being held by the home
stead society, Mr.. Wilhelm said One
IS 6OO-acre tract located south of
ana adjacent to Beech Grove. and
the other is a 200-acre section in
Ihe northwestern part of that CITY.
