9. (I.N.S.) Indiana's calling of a special session of the state legislature will depend upon whether the federal social security board gives a strict or relatively liberal interpretation of the social security legislation passed by the last session of congress, Governor Paul V. McNutt told newspapermen just before departing for Texas and other points on a speaking tour of 10 days. The federal social security board has failed as yet to give its approval of the Indiana provisions for administering social security and meeting the federal requirements, Governor McNutt who appeared before the national administrative board said. The federal social security act age limits are more liberal than the state provisions and the state has no avenue for appeals, McNutt said.

If necessary to meet federal requirements of the federal social security measure Indiana will call a session but it is hoped that will not be necesary, Governor McNutt said. In the absence of Governor McNutt, John H. Klinger, his secretary, said that he know of no new development regarding the calling of a session. The governor has said it depends entirely upon Indiana's ability to meet the federal social security law, Klinger said. REMOVING 86,000 FROM RELIEF ROLLS INDIANAPOLIS, Nov.

9. (I.N.S.) Every effort is being made to remove 86,000 persons from the relief rolls to P. W. A. and other federal works projects by Nov.

18 in this state, Charles B. Marshall, liason officer of the state works-progress administra tion said here. Speaking to the state conference on social work, Marshall said: "Indiana has succeded in putting to work under projects sponsored by local communities and approved by the president and the comptroller general nearly 60,000 men and women to date. "All of these have gone from the relief rolls of the townships and the relief cases closed as far as federal relief i3 concerned. By Nov.

18, it is expected that W. P. A. will have a total of 74,500 men and women at work while about ,500 will be employed by other agencies, making the total 86,000." PILOT KILLED IN PLANE CRASH FORT WORTH, Nov. 9.

(TJ.P.) A Braniff Airways mail plane crashed near the Fort Worth airport early today, killing the pilot, W. C. "Cliff Mauss. Mauss, 38, former manager of the Corpus Christi, airport, was the only occupant of the plane. He had left Dallas; 30 miles to the east, at 4:10 a.

m. C. S. T. Approximately 30 minutes later his plane plunged to the ground one and one half miles southeast of the airport here.

Braniff officials did not imrae diately determine cause of the accident. They said there was no mail aboard the plane, and that Mauss was making a regulation run at the time of the accident. HT. YESUYIUS IN ERUPTION NAPLES, Nov. 9.

(I.N.S.) Mount Vesuvius, most famous and one of the most active of the world's volcanos, burst into erup tion today. The glow of the crater was brighter before dawn this morn ing and daylight disclosed a flood of lava flowing out of the eruptive cone of the crater. The lava flow had not attained enough volume to burst through the wall of the crater and endanger the picturesque vineyards on the mountainside. CONVICT IS RECAPTURED Earl Richardson of Mitch ell Doing a Life Sentence Taken at East Chicago Earl Richardson, 39, of Mitchell, who walked away from the honor farm at Michigan City state prison Thursday night, was cap tured in East Chicago last night by Baltimore and Ohio railtoad police. Richardson is serving a life sentence for murder.

He was committed to the penitentiary 18 years ago. Railroad officers attracted by Richardson's prison garb, nabbed him as he rode through East Chicago on a freight train. The convict admitted his identity to Capt. Nicholas Makar of the East Chicago police department and was returned to Michigan City last night by a prison guard. Richardson received a life sen tence for first degree murder in Washington county when 19 years old.

He entered the state prison on November 16, 1917. ROTHROCK DISALLOWS HIS CLAIM Highland Clerk Fails to Advertise That Trustees Would Buy Fire Truck CROWN POINT, Nov. 9. Because Bartel Zandstra, clerk of the town of Highland, failed to advertise in newspapers of general circulation that the village trustees had decided to buy a new fire truck for $2,225, the appropriation was disallowed here yesterday by John Rothrock, field representa tive of the state tax board. Highland already has purchased the equipment; consequently, Zand stra will have to advertise the item in newspapers of general circulation before the money can be paid out.

Zandstra attempted to comply with the law originally by posting notices in public places about the town. Rothrock, however, declared the law is specific in its requirements that such appropriations be adver tised in newspapers of opposite political faiths and of general cir culation before the state tax board can approve them. GARY TRIO HAS NICE WORD FOR HAMMOND JAIL Cecil Kirby, a Gary steel worker, came to Hammond yesterday with his wife, Mabel, and his pal, Floyd Sweet, also a Gary steel worker. Their itinerary carried them across the state line into Calumet City and back again. Among other things, their automobile became stalled in State street, and then with Cecil driv ing, they crashed into another ma chine in front of 935 State street.

About that time Policeman Fred Howat happened along and decided that they should spend the rest of the night (it was then 4:30 a. m. today) in the Hammond city jail, as a result, tne new jail received a very fine recommendation when the three were brought up before Special Judge Martin A. Hubers in city court. Sweet said he had never been in jail before, but the Hammond jail was 'certainly much better than the others he had heard about" "Well, you were lucky," said Deputy Prosecutor Paul J.

Hawk "That's a brand new jail" Sweet was discharged on charges of drunkeness. So was Mrs. Kirby, Cecil, however, was not so fortu nate. "Were you pretty drunk?" Judge Hubers asked Kirby. "No, not bad, your honor," an swered the defendant.

"One dollar and costs and driv er's license suspended 90 days," ruled the court. ITALY HAS 38,000 TROOPS IN AERICA LONDON, Nov. 9. (I.N.S.) Italy now has 38,000 troops in Cyre-naica, her African colony adjoining Egypt Reuters correspondent reported after a 350-mile trip through the militarized area. This number does not include 9,000 Arab troops from Libya who are soon leaving for the Ethiopian front OF ITA AIRPLANE Gily Falls to Italians VVilhoat the Firing ot a Singls Shot By SANDOR SANDRI (United Press Staff Correspondent) (Copyright, 1935, By United Press) WITH THE ITALIAN SOUTHERN ARMY BEFORE GORRAHEI (Via Mogadiscio, Italian Somaliland), Nov.

9. The chase of a fleeing Ethiopi an army along the trails to the north and to Harar has started as I write this dispatch. It is the beginning of the real campaign in the south, which is to take the army of the south through the Ogaden country to meet the armies assembled by Ras Siyoum in the country before Harar and Jijig. I have witnessed myself the fall of Gorrahei, an important position which was considered by the Ethiopians and rightly to be the key of the defensive system in the Ogaden region. Gorrahei was taken by armored cars Wednesday night without the firing of a shot and it was strongly garrisoned by two united Italian attacking columns Thursday morning.

A strong force of Ethiopian tribal warriors and regular infantry had been demoralized and fled in route, terrified by the preparatory bombing of Italian airplanes. This operation was the keystone of the Italian campaign in the south under Gen. Rodolfo Graziani, called Italy's foremost colonel soldier and conqueror of the Libyan desert Lines Extended As the army starts northwestward and northward, its lines have extended some 660 miles from the southern base at Mogadiscio on the Somaliland coast and we are 62 miles from the most advanced field base at Scillave. There is no defense in sight Gen. Afework, commanding the Ethiopian stronghold here, fled with his men after being seriously wounded Monday by a splinter from an aerial bomb, prisoners told us.

The last of the main forces fled the city Tuesday night Every detail of the Italian attack was prepared in advance by tJen. Graziani personally. Gorrahei was known to be Ethiopian strong point Gen Afework, young, ambitious, educated in Europe, considered fiercely anti-Italian, wa3 sent here months ago to create about Gorrathei a modern entrenched camp, equipped with three lines of deep en- (Continued on Page Six) NOLO FILES 20 FORECLOSURES IN LAKE COUNTY In Same Week County Office Closes 31 Reconditioning Contracts The Lake county II.

LOUISVILLE, Nov. 9. (I.N.S.) "Will you please help me find something I lost between Columbus, Ohio, and Louisville?" Fred McClinchy asked Louisville police today. McClinchy said he was driving a truck on a P. W.

A. project at Columbus Wednesday and purchased $5 worth of whisky. The next thing he knew it was Saturday and he was in Louisville. "I lost it somewhere between Columbus and here. It was a big two-ton dump truck." CHARGE 2 MEN WITH FRAUD IN GAS TAX DEAL Filling Station Man and Farmer Make False Claims for Refunds SPECIAL TO THE TIMES CROWN POINT, Nov.

9. Repre sentatives of the state auditor's office' today were in the midst of a campaign in Lake county to halt the practice among farmers of defrauding the state of gasoline taxes. First victims of the drive are Elmer Paulson, owner of a filling station near Lowell, and Alvie Had' ders, farmer living near there. Af fidavits have ben filed against them here in criminal court charg ing them with filing false claims. A state law specifies that farm' ers, when they purchase gasoline for motorized farm machinery, are entitled to a refund of four cents which they pay as tax on each gal Ion.

(The federal tax is one cent) When the farmers purchase the fuel, they pay the tax but are given sales tickets, and these they have notarized, sent to the state auditor, and received the tax refund. Paulson and Hadders, according to Deputy Prosecutor John Stanton, have confessed to falsifying claims on 225 gallons, for which Hadders received from the state $9.20, and on 330 gallons, on which he received $13.20. The money, according to Stanton, was turned over to Paulson, who claimed he executed the plot because he was "hard up." The sales tickets weer notarized by Benjamin Lynch, of Lowell, who said that he, as is the custom, merely approved the lot without verification. He said it is the custom to trust to the honesty of farmers who bring in their tickets. Lynch is expected to testify for the state against Paulson and Hadders.

The penalty for conviction on tha gasoline false claims charge is a fine not to exceed $1,000, but those found guilty also may be charged with perjury. MILLION MARK FOR '35 FORDS ALREADY PAST Hegewisch Plant Celebrates Comeback of Auto Industry SPECIAL TO THE TIMES HEGEWCH, 111., Nov. 9. The Ford assembly plant here today was quietly celebrating the fulfillment of Henry Ford's promise of a year ago that he would build 1,000,000 cars in 1935. The millionth car rolled off the assembly line in the River Rouge plant at Dearborn, last week and official word to that effect was received in the local unit this morning.

Ford's promise has been bettered since the record was established. Local estimates place the 1935 production record at 1,180,000 units. When Ford made his prediction just a year ago this week, his statement was accepted far and wide as the first solid evidence that the American industry was pulling out of the depression. The company now is producing 1936 models in all units. At the local assembly plant, slightly more than 4,000 workers are employed in three shifts of eight hours each day producing almost 500 cars a day.

Hegewisch plant officials expect to reach capacity operations by the end of the year. That will furnish employment for 4,800 men and will the daily output at 500 units. Ford started production of new models two months earlier than usual this year in order to spread employment over a longer period of time. LONDON, Nov. 9.

Vittorio and Bruno. Premier Mussolini's two aviator-sons, have been challenged to a duel in the air, according to Aden Bazaar, gossip reported by Reuters today. The reported challengers are the two sons of Dr. Azaj Warq-neh Martin, Ethiopian minister to London. The Ethiopian lads are also fliers, and called upon Mussolini's boys to fight them in airplanes with machine guns, said the rumor.

HAN DENIES GRAFT CHARGE APPLIES HERE Trustee Says Same System Is Followed That U. S. Used North Township Trustee John J. Mehan today denied that graft, politics, and loose administration methods characterize poor relief activities in his office since he assumed charge of indigent aid on October His statement follows general charges by Virgil Sheppard, govern ment research, director of the In dianapolis Chamber of Commerce, in a speech before state social workers yesterday at Indianapolis that the old evils of township ad ministration are cropping up again since the state and federal govern ment relinquished control of direct poor relief. "I do not believe Sheppard meant to include North township in his allegations," Mehan declared, "for, since we assumed charge of in digent aid on October 1, we have not changed the federal system that prevailed prior to that date.

"We are using the same investi gators and we are allocating food orders among the same grocers, Moreover, we are following the identical routine which the federal government established for North township." Sheppard, who was director of Lake county poor relief activities when the state and federal governments assumed control for the first time two and one-half years ago, attacked conditions in Lake speci fically. He said transfer of relief from the government to township trustees on October 1 "marked a tragic turn in the history of social wel fare." Continuing, he said: The state had no other recourse because the federal government dis continued grants for direct relief. Under the trustee system, case workers are retained by pulling political strings; favored grocers are given huge orders for foodstuffs, and employment of unquali fied investigators is leading to a loose administration of relief." Sheppard said relief conditions in Lake county before the government took over administration, had reached a point where the supervisor was forced to carry a revolver, communistic demonstrations were frequent and investigators were unqualified political ap pointees. JAMES CLAYTON, MAILMAN FOR 19 YEARS, IS TAKEN James G. Clayton, Hammond mailman for 19 years, died yesterday at 6:30 p.

m. in St. Margaret's hospital, where he underwent stomach operation about 10 days ago. He was 47 years old and lived at 5734 Calumet ave. He was the second Hammond mailman to die in three weeks and only the fourth to die in service in about 20 years.

Mil FOR AVIATOR Sir Charles KIngsford-Smlth and His Companion Are Still Missing (CopTrisbt, I93S, by United Pres) SINGAPORE, Straits Settlement, Nov.

9. Ships and airplanes searched the sea today, and natives beat the treacherous jungle, in dimming hope of finding Sir Charles Kingsford-Smith and J. F. Pethybridge, feared lost on an England-Australia flight. Wireless messages flashed out to liners and freighters in the Andaman sea and the Bay of Bengal seeking to trace the Lockheed monoplane Lady Southern Cross in which the great Australian aviator and his co-pilot were seen late Thursday fighting for life in shark-infested waters, only 200 feet above a stormy sea, J.50 miles from the coast of the Malayan Peninsula.

C. J. Melrose, fellow Australian aviator on a solo flight to Australia, was the last man to see the Lady Southern Cross. Flames were shooting from its exhaust. He joined in the search today.

Melrose and the crews of two great Royal Air force bombing planes took off at dawn for Victoria Point, 700 miles up the coast at the south ern tip of Burma, to fly out over the Andaman sea looking for the plane. Other bombers, on a visit to Taip- ing between Singapore and Victoria Point, took off at dawn. The 10,850 ton aircraft carrier Hermes got up steam here to cruise up the coast and reinforce the many ships that were cooper ating in the search. Search Along the Coast All along the coast of the penin sula, Malay and Burma natives beat through the jungle area of the coast and in the dangerous tangles of the islands off the coast. The United Press correspondent at Alor Star, up the coast, wired that Kingsford-Smith's plane passed Rangoon, Burma, at 2 a.

m. yesterday (2 p. m. Thursday E.S.T.). Melrose saw it a few hours later aver the Bay of Bengal.

From the two positions it was apparent that the plane was flying down the main steamship route from Burma to Singapore off the west coast of the peninsula, through the Andaman Sea. The search, still growing, has be come one of the greatest ever made for aviators lost at sea. Hundreds of ships, great and small, were look ing for the fliers on and off the steamer route, among the islands and off the coast while there were thousands in search ashore. Thirty-seven Royal Air force air planes in all were detailed to join the search. PORT DARWIN.

A OUS CURB State Board Will Approve No Additions to the Budget SPECIAL TO THE TIMES CROWN POINT, Nov. 9. Severely criticizing the free-spending habits of county officials during the current fiscal year, John Rothrock, field representative of the state tax board, warned departmental heads yesterday that this practice will not be tolerated next year. The remark was advanced after M. W.

Madden, of Gary, research director of the Lake County Tax payers' association, informed Rothrock that the county council has allowed $404,187 in additional appropriations over the 1935 county budget Increase of 47.8 Fct The 1935 budget, Madden said, was established at therefore, the additional appropriations represents 47.8 per cent of the ad vertised budget "Had it not been for the un usually heavy tax collections this year. Madden declared, county government would be hope lessly in the red before the end of the year." Rothrock conducted a hearing into the additional appropropna tions of $86,000 allowed by the county council on October 28 and 29. After disallowing several items and paring down others, Rothrock warned county officials they must live within their budgets next year, "The state tax board," Rothrock declared, "will not approve an ex tra dime in additional appropria tions next year unless a clear-out emergency exists."

Seclusion from fellow convicts since their recapture after staging the sensational break from the state prison here Sept 26, 1933, has been the fate of the five felons who were returned to the local institu tion, it was revealed today. The period of their seclusion ranges from five months to more than two years, depending on the time they were seized after an unrelenting manhunt by police and prison officials. The usual solitary confinement punishment for the most serious violations of prison discipline ranges from 30 to 60 days. However, it is explained that the present condition under which the five prisoners are held is not quite the same as solitary confinement. The men are given a barber's at tention daily and are taken into the prison yard for exercise a cer tain time each day.

They are held in their cells the remainder of the period. They are not permitted to communicate with other convicts and know nothing of what is going on around them. James Clark, who was captured in Hammond a few days after the break, has been in "seclusion" for the longest period. Joseph Fox, who was arrested in Chicago last June 5, was the last of the gang mem bers to be returned here. How long the men will continue be held in seclusion is not re vealed by prison officials.

The men are: James Clark, captured Sept. 29, 1933, in Hammond. He is serving a life term for bank robbery. Edward Shouse, captured Dec, 20, 1933, in Paris, 111., is serving 25 years for banditry. Walter Detrich, captured Jan.

6, 1934, in Bellwood, serving life for bank robbery. John Burns, arrested Dec. 17, 1934, in Chicago, serving life for murder and bank robbery. Joseph Fox, arrested June 5, 1935, in Chicago, serving life for bank robbery. SPE Former City Judge of Ham mond Has Entered Race for G.

0. P. Nomination Virgil Whitaker, former city judge of Hammond and before that a deputy in the attorney general's office, tossed his hat into the ring today for the republican nomination for prosecutor of Lake county. He is the second republican to announce his intention for office. The first was James Kirrin, In diana Harbor business man, who began circulation of petitions yes terday to place his name on the primary election ballot for sheriff.

Circulate Petitions Whitaker will start circulation of petitions throughout the county next week. Like Kirrin, he expects to obtain over 4,000 signatures in order to display his pre-primary strength. Each needs only about 400 names. Whitaker, a practicing attorney in Hammond, is receiving the support of leading republicans in the city. He also is reported to be enjoying the sponsorship of repub lican leaders in surrounding mu nicipalities.

As city judge of Hammond, he established an enviable record, re ceived the commendation of locar bar associations for his impartiality. He is rated as one of the out standing orators in Lake county. His brother, William Whitaker, formerly was auditor of Lake county. Whitaker and his backers de cided to withhold for the time being the platform on which he will make the race for the prosecutor's nomination next spring. It will be announced after the first of the year, according to present plans.

More to Follow Fast With Whitaker and Kirrin al ready in the field for republican nomination, the list is expected to be expanded daily from now on in, although the primary election still is almost six months away. Prospective republican candi dates, sensing a change of sentiment in the republican victories in New York and Pennsylvania this week, are becoming more active toady than at any time since the democrats ran them out of office in 1930. EXCITEMENT RUNS HIGH OVER FOOTBALL GAME Break Between Iowa and Minnesota Over Gov. Herring's Statement IOWA CITY, Nov. 9.

(U.P.) A break in athletic relations be tween Iowa and Minnesota threat ened today as the two Big Ten rivals met in a homecoming game here. A statement attributed to Gov ernor Clyde L. Herring of Iowa that the Hawkeye fans would "not permit any undue rough treat ment" of Ozzie Simmons, fleet colored inflated Coach Bernie Bierman of Minnesota that he threatened to severe relation ships. So intense was sentiment for the unbeaten Hawkeyes, that Coach Bierman enlisted a police squad to protect his players as they arrived shortly before game time from Davenport. With feeling at a high pitch, Bierman yesterday refused the offer of an athletic field for prac tice in Davenport and removed his squad to Rock Island, 111., across the Mississippi river, where state and city policemen and a fire de partment force guarded the drill.

The Minnesota coach wired his superiors in Minneapolis to com municate with University of Iowa authorities in an effort to obtain courteous treatment for his play ers before, during and after the game. Governor Herring, here to attend the game, sent a message to Bierman denying the possibility of violence to the Minnesota players at any time during their stay.
