2 LEADERS SAY SENATE WILL PASS ‘BONUS’ Fight Will Center on G. 0. P. Effort to In clude Sales Tax. WON’T SAY WHEN WASHINGTON, March 23.—The Senate will pass a soldier “bonus” bill at the present session, according to predictions today by leaders on both sides. The fight on soldiers’ compensation In the Senate will be centered on the effort of Republicans to include a sales ax as a provision for raising funds with which to pay the bonus, which vill meet with organized re sistance. Administration leaders were averse to predicting when an effort will be made to bring “bonus'’ legislation, but the consensus of opinion was that the meas ure will follow the tariff bill now before the Senate Finance Committee. It is likely the “bonus” bill will be debated in committee hearing within two weeks. A canvass of Senators showed that Edge and Frelinghuysen of New Jersey; Smoot, of Utah; Calder, of New York, and McLean, of Connecticut, will support a sales tax provision. Their attitude ul timately may be supported by Senators Curtis, Eepublican, of Kansas, and Dil lingham, Republican, of Vermont, in com mittee hearing. All are members of the Finance Committee. Republican supporters of a ••bonus” bill will include Senators Johnson of California; Spencer, of Missouri; La Follette, of Wisconsin, and most of the “regular" Senators. On the Democratic side, Harrison, ot Mississippi; Walsh, of Massachusetts, and Simmons, of North Carolina, will be joined by Robinson, of Arkansas; Hitch cock, of Nebraska; Harris, of Georgia, and Walsh, of Montana, in supporting the measure. Serious opposition on the Democratic side will come from Underwood, the min ority leader; Carter Glass, of Virginia, and King, of Utah. Their opposition, however, is not expected to gain much additional support. CEMENT BIDS TO BE RECEIVED Highway Commission to Con tract for Material.

Retease Refused f™S !j . IjL. W / ~A ttf.'usi 'Fi-obs-i NEW YORK, March 28.—Federal Judge Knox today handed down a ruling in the case of August Probst, the Swiss immigrant who alleged that he was be ing “railroaded out of this country,” be cause he had dared to make love to a girl member of a rich Pittsburgh family at a country club near Pittsburgh, re fusing to release Probst. The judge did not touch upon the charge made by Probst through his counsel that he had been kidnaped in .Trenton, X. J., by detectives alleged by him to have been employed by a member of the Rolling Rock Club at Ligonler, Pa. Tho court did not pass upon Probst's sanity. Adjudged by one examining official to be a paranoias, Probst, in fighting de portation from Ellis Island, revealed alleged romances with daughters of two Pittsburgh millionaires. Mis Virginia McKay, daughter of a socially >rominent Pittsburgh family, has emphat ’ally de nied either she or her chum, > ss Sa’ah Mellon, niece to Secretary of the Trea sury Mellon, wrote notes to T obst while j he was employed at the cl o of which they are members. Neither .he nor Miss I Mellon received notes fro i Probst, she ; asserted. CITIZENS ASK BOARD TO LET NEW CONTRACT Forty-ninth Street Can Not Be Used, They Say, Due to Long Wait. Property owners on Forty-Ninth street from the Monon Railroad to Illinois street, want the board of pubtie works to rescind the contract of the American Con struction Company for the permanent improvement of the street, because, they claim, work has not been begun ana further, for the reason that the comple tion date in the contract was Dec. 30, 1921. With Harry E. Yockey, assistant city attorney in the Jewett administration, a- their spokesman, a delegation of the interested citizens asked the board to do this Monday afternoon. Eugene Fo ley. representing the contracting firm, said work was started last fall, but was suspended because of bad weather. The board suggested that the property own ers and the contractor try to get to gether. The property owners also urged that the contract be rescinded because its cost will be about $70,000 whereas from $20,000 to $30,000 could be cut off of this if new bids were received on the present lower basis. The contractor insisted that he had not delayed the work in to make more money, saying he had con tracted for his material last year, and will have to pay high prices for it. CONTRACT TOO LATE FOR FINISH IN 19*1. Mr. Yockey said that the firm was given the contract last August, blit began work too late to finish by Dec. 30. Mr. Foley answered that it was impossible for him to start work before sidewalks, curbs and grading were finished and workmen laying water mains, were out of his way. “Th£ property owners would not object so much if the date for completion had been fixed some time this spring or early summer." said Mr. Yockey. City Civil Engineer John L. Elliott pointed cut that the completion date was Dec. 30 was because the Jewett board of works re fused to put any completion date after Jan. 1 when the Shauk administration came into power. Meanwhile, the property owners said, they are at constaift expense and annoy ance because they cannot get automobiles and delivery wagons up to their homes. An apartment owner, who told ot diffi culties he has had all winter in getting coal into the basement was one of the chief complaints. ADOPTS RULING ON FILING CITY PLATS. The board adopted a resolution di recting that parties desiring approval of the board upon real estate plats must deposit with tbe clerk of the board the fee for filing the plat in the county re corder's office, after which the clerk will see that the plat is filed. The law pro vides that both the city plan commission and board of works must approve plats before they are recorded. Two cases in which property owners altered plats after they were approved by the com mission and board, and before they were filed with the recorder, have been discov ered recently. By keeping the plat in the hands of the clerk of the board after it is npproved, such changes will bo im possible, the boajd believes. Contracts were awarded for the resur facing with asphalt of Prospect street from Shelby staeet to Statu avenue to the Marion County Construction Com pany for $22,741.43 and from State to Keystone avenue to the Mead Construc tion Company for $15,063.89. C. L. U. to Support non-Partisan Plan The Central Labor Union has voted financially to support financially the “non-partisan” league which seeks to elect labor union members to the Legis lature. The league is said to be sup porting Edgar A. Terkins. Peter Boland. •Terry O'Connor and L. C. Schwartz in Marion County. Andrew Bluehcr is county chairman of the leag te, which also is said to have indorsed Jesse Sanders, Garrett, for the Democratic nomination for Cnited States Senator. Mr. Schwartz, speaking at the C. L. U.. meeting Monday night declared, he thought the mayor's committee investi gating the books of the Indianapolis Street Railway Company should have an independent auditor and not accept the loan of an accountant from the pub lic service commission.

VICEPROBERS FIND LITTLE TO CRITICISE IN CITY Indianapolis Is a fairly moral city, ac cording to a report of a Government in vestigator, turned over to Mayor Shank today by Miss Jessie F. Binford, field representative of the United States Inter departmental Social Hygiene Board, with headquarters in Cnicago. Miss Binford called upon the mayor with Mrs. Richard Lieber, who spent two months as a po licewoman to jet first hand information about police work and crime. The investigator, a man, worked In In dianapolis from Jan. 26 until Feb. 1, ac cording to the report, which states: “This city is in a fair condition. The business of conducting prostitution is scattered and carried on a great deal by procurers such as chauffeurs of taxi-cabs, bell boys in hotels and colored boot blacks.” There Is no open red light district, the investigator reported. He gives seven closely typewritten pages to detailed de scription of his experiences with bell bops, taxi-drivers, bootblacks and women in hotels, streets, apartments and rooming houses. The Government makes such surveys at regular intervals in all cities adjacent to Army posts. G.V. COFFIN SAYS HE S NOT AFTER CHAIRMANSHIP While County Clerk George V. Coffin, issued a statement denying that he is a candidate for anything, leaders of the Shank faction of the Republican party insisted today they are well informed Mr. C> (Tin intends either to run for Re publican county chairman or try to elect another man. City* Councilman Lloyd D. Claycombe was mentioned as a pos sible Coffin candidate. The Shank faction seeks to elect Wil liam H. Freeman county chairman. The News-Jewett faction has been working quietly toward the point where it might enter a candidate and the Coffin wing is considered openly opposed to the Shank people. “I absolutely am not a candidate and would not accept it if it were offered to me,” said Mr. Coffin. “I'm not a can didate for anything. Os course I've got lriends whom I'm for but I'm not setting up any candidates.” Mr. Coffin said he was so desirous of stoppiug the story that he is a candi date that hi. .aid $lO for space on the program of a negro event in which to use the following advertisement: "George V. Coffin— candidate.” Shank leaders continue to make confi dent claims that they can elect Mr. Free man easily. Their effort is directed out of headquarters of the Marion County Republican League in the Indiana Trust building. Several leaders in the move iuent will hold a conference tonight at which it is expected candidates for pre cinct committeemen in the Third ward will be discussed. The county chair man will be elected by precinct commit teemen chosen in the primary election May 2. For some time the Shank lead ers have been picking candidates for coaimii tectuen they will back iu return for support for Sir. Freeman. EYE WITNESS TO MURDER OF WEST EVANSVILLE, Ind., March 28.—W1l liam Krouse of Terre Haute, eye witness to the murder of Irvir. West, 40. farmer, in I’oscy County Friday, wis held in jail at Mt. Vernon today. Krouse, who has a wife and live chil dren In Trere Haute, has been making his home in Evansville! While investigating Krause's story of the shooting, police were also trying to prove West was the victim of a boot leg ring. Police have a warrant for the arrest of Harvey Nally, farm hand ac cused of slaying West. ‘ays Track-Paving Order Is Relic of Old Mule-Car Days Tl. > practice of requiring street car companies to pave between their tracks Is a relic of the old-time mule car days when the companies and the municipality had much difficulty with the problem. Harry Boggs, chief accountant of the Indiana Public Service Commission, said today. Mr. Boggs declared he holds no brief for the Indianapolis Street Railway Com pany. but he believes the acceptance of his service by the sub-committee of Mayor Shank's street car company com mittee, will mean a difficult task for him. Lack of a definite notion of what the committee wishes to know, the length of time which would be required to gain such information, and other obstacles, such as the lack of hearty cooperation on the rart of the committee, were pointed out. John W. McCardle, chairman of the commission, suggested if this burden be lifted by the city, the ear company would be materially aided. The civic committee agreed with him on that point and also that the ear company should receive fares being paid by many to ride on interurbans within the city. In this connection, Mr. Boggs said, many years ago in Indianapolis, ruts be tween the rails were worn by the mules’ hoofs. These rtits were deep and vehicles did not attempt to cross, except at street intersections. At street intersections the car company was compelled to keep the roadway in passable condition. When electric cars came into vogue, what had become a habit was stipulated In con tracts with the city. Marriage Licenses Horner E. Howiler, Hollowya, 0hi0...25 Marie J.

Baby Girl Inherits Pearl Necklace in Grandmothers’ Will OAKLAND, Cal., March 2S.—Little Miss Blum, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, James B. Blum, was born not with a gold spoon in her mouth, but with a pearl necklace about her neck. Through her arrival here last night at the Merritt Hospital, the stork decided the ownership of the neck lace. Four years ago Mrs. Rosa Blum, wealthy mother of Blum, died. She left a curious will, one of the provi sions of which was that her SIOO,OOO pearl necklace should go to the first daughter of her son, B. Blum, JEWISH LEADER HOPES U.S. WILL ENTER LEAGUE Col. John Heary Patterson, D. S. 0., who is In Indianapolis in interest of the Palestine foundation fund, was honor guest of the Indianapolis Rotarians this noon at luncheon at the Claypool Hotel.* He was introduced by Charles Hall. Dr. Nahum Sokolow. Jewish leader and author, and Colonel Patterson were tendered a banquet at the Indianapolis Club last evening by the Indianapolis committee of the Palestine foundation fund. A. H. Goldstein, general chair man of the local committee, presided. The mass meeting in Interest of the fund opens tonight at 8 c’clock and Dr. Sokolow and Colonel Patterson will be tbe principal speakers, explaining in de tail the aims and purposes of the Pales tine foundation fund,’and the possibilities of the colonization of Palestine by home less Jews of the European continent. CHICAGO EDUCATOR TO HELP IN CAMPAIGN. Dr. A. Hoffman, prominent Chicago educator and lawyer, arrived in Indian apolis with Dr. Sokolow and Colonel Patterson to assist in the work of the : Indianapolis campaign for the fund. "I am interpreter of the ideas of the ’ peace conference,” said Dr. Sokolow, at J the banquet last night, “and you must ! understand, first of ail, that the ques tion of Palestine Is part and parcel of the question of the Near East. The League of Nations has arranged that Great Britain has a mandate over Pales tine, so that this land shall enjoy peace. ; I hope that some day America may Join this league or will find a better way to conduct an international congress. The recent Washington conference on the limitation of armaments was a sort of peace conference, and I hope that from this an International organization will arise to assure the peace of the I world for all time. “But, if this he Impossible, what of war? Tbe Balkan peninsula was the volcano that fired Europe with war. Palestine and the Near East must not be such a volcano. Great Britain's statesmen, and the statesmen of France recognize that to assure the peace of the Near East these countries must have their national centers. Hence Armenia has her country. For a nation with a center rannnt be massacred—a country which is recognized cannot be over whelmed, because, in event of encroach ments from any source, that nation can appeal to the international court. World statesmen also realize that the agricul turist is the guarantee of peace. The farmer wants no trouble or revolution. He must have peace. So it is purposed to coionize Palestine, which has the pro tection of Great Britain, with farmers, and thus assure the peace of the Near East. OBTAINS VIEWPOINT OF NEW ADMINISTRATION. "Recently I was anxious to learn If your Government under ils new Admin- i is trot ion viewed the Near East question as the former Administration had. At tho peace conference I talked with Presl- j dent Wilson and Secretary Lansing, and was delighted at their deep insight into the true situation in the Near East, i Therefore I was much concerned ns to ‘ the viewpoint of the present Administra- ! tion, and when in Washington I was as- , stired that the only difference between: this Administration and the past one is on internal questions, and that interna- j tionai questions are looked upon in the same way as during the Wilson Admin-1 ist ration. "The pre-war conception of Zionism is ! unachronlstic with our purposes today, i It is not true to farts. The League of Nations has so engineered the shaping j of the destiny of the Near East that a new and wonderful opportunity arises to j take out of Europe millions of homeless i Jews, many of them on their way al-] ready to the promised land of Palestine, 1 and most of them slowly starving. I j appeal to you to think It over with your ! minds, and with your hearts.” BLUE CANDIDATE FOR PROSECUTOR John D. P.lue, an attorney of Indian apolis, wns the only candidate to file a declaration of candidacy from Marion County with the secretary of State to day. 110 is a Democrat and seeks the nomination of his party for prosecuting attorney.

Arthur Hillenbrand, Auto Salesman, Dies Automobile salesmen and manufactur ers in Indianapolis,' among whom he had many friends, have been notified of the dentil from injuries suffered in an nufomobiie accident at Cincinnati last Saturday of Arthur J. Hillenbrand, 35, of the Cincinnati Automobile Company, Stotz ngents. The funeral will be held in Cincinnati Wednesday. Mr. Hillen brand made frequent visits to In dianapolis, especially in the annual Speedway race. provided he married, and to charity if he did not marry or did not have a daughter. Blum married and a year ago the stork arrived but brought a boy. Then it was that the court decreed that Mrs. Blum should once a year, under guard, wear the pearls which had been lying in a safety deposit box, in order that, they might not “die” from want of contact with beautiful shoulders. Under the terms of the court or der, she will wear them once a year until Miss Blum is big enough to wear them herself.

REVOLVER HELD IN WOMAN’S FACE DURING SEARCH Negro Burglar Threatens Mrs. Frank Dailey in St. Joseph Street Home. When Herbert Stewart, son of A. H. Stewart,, 3231 McPherson avenue, walked into the residence at 1:45 a. in. today, a burglar who was prowling about the lirst floor took one frightened glance at him and dashed out the back door. The house had been left unlocked fo~ the son. A woman’s purse containing sl4 was missed. This was one of two robberies com mitted last evening in the northeast part of tbe city and one of several perpe trated in the last few nights. It is thought the same burglar has been re sponsible in each case. olice also are working on the robbery of the apartment of Frank Dailey, 17 East St. Joseph street, by two negroes, about 7:20 o’clock last evening. The robbers escaped with $285 after entering through a balcony door, from which they had cut a small square of glass, and, terrorizing Mrs. Dally with a revolver. The northeast end burglar is thought to have been tbe man who took his time about ransack! the house of William Koesner, -739 Bellefontaine street, while the family slept. A pocketbook contain, inr $23 was stolen. One of the negroes who robbed the Dailey apartment was masked and ear* ried a revolver. Mrs. Dailey was in the kitchen when she heard the glass from the door fail to the floor. 'She started to investigate and was met in the dining room by the armed, masked burglar. The negro silenced her with a threat when she started to scream. He forced her to sit on a chair while his partner spent about five minutes ransacking two bedrooms. Mrs. Dailey said that the negroes took S2OO. representing her j husband's pay as a Pennsylvania Railroad yard conductor; $45 belonging to her and $lO belonging to Mike Shafer, a roomer, who went to Louisville entrusting the money to her. Her purse was found on the front porch, empty. The burglar who entered the Roesner home got in through a side window. Be sides taking the money and carefully searching for more, he took Mr. Itoesner’s overcoat. This was found in the back yard with every pocket turned out.

'f FLAT DWELLER MUST STILL PAY HIGHER RENTAL Agents Say Demand for High- Class Apartments Ex ceeds Supply. Industrial and business depressions may come and go, but the demand for high class, high-price apartments in Indian apolis goes on forever. At least that seems to be the opinion of local real estate men and rental agents. In the past month there have been reductions in rentals of the smaller and cheaper class of apartment houses and this has given rise to a hope in the breast of the twentieth century cave dweller that the downward tendency might assume the proportions of a most welcome epidemic and restore rentals to something approaching a pre-war level. However, these hopes are at the best, premature, and, according to real estate men, not only will there be no reduction in rentals of the better class of apart ments during the present year, but the demand for them will continue to exceed the supply. The general opinion of the rental agents was summed up in a statement by David W. Goldrick, head of the rental department of the Spann Company. “There is very little chance that there will be any reductions in rentals of first class apartment properties this year,” he said. “There is tendency downward in prices cf apartments renting from sls to S3O a month, but that Is as far as it goes. *As a matter of fact, the demand for high-grade apartments is decidedly strong at present, not as strong as last year, when there was a greater shortage than there is at present. But the de mand still exceeds the supply L'y a con siderable margin." MILLER AND PLANS TRIP.
