RIVALS DILLINGER HUNT. Thugs Invite Officers In, Then Start Furious Attack. BY the Associated Press. INDIANAPOLIS, December 7.—Two gunmen who shot and seriously wounded two Indianapolis detectives seeking them for questioning in the slaying of an Anderson, Ind., patrol- man, became the object tonight of one of the most intense police hunts in Indiana since John Dillinger was at large. Detective Herbert Fletcher of the city police said two men had been “positively” identified as Paul Pierce, 23, and Donald Joseph, 27, who escaped from the Indiana State Prison Farm October 4. Sentenced in 1830. Fletcher said they were sentenced for robbery in 1930. They had been known here as the “hair tonic ban= dits” after victims reported a distinct odor during hold-ups. State police blocked all county roads, while city police cruised through downtown neighborhoods. The gunmen attacked Detectives Orville Quinnette and Russell Chatham at a north side apartment after tell- ing the officers to “come in.” They knocked down both officers, then started firing at them with pistols. Quinnette, struck by five bullets, was taken to City Hospital after his assailants fled. Chatham, wounded in the legs, remained to aid fellow offi- cers pick up the trail. Recent Attacks Similar. Four times in the last 10 days In- diana police officers have been fired on without warning. Capt. Matt Leach of State police said tonight: “It looks like the work of Willard Carson.” Carson, Indiana bad man and alleged killer of at least three persons, including his father, has been sought since Patrolman Frank M. Levy was shot down at An- derson November 25. Fleeing after today’s assault on the detectives, the two gunmen halted a passing motorist, Dr. Edwin Moten, hit him with a revolver butt, tossed him to the ground and took his auto- mobile. An hour after the shooting Knights- town, Ind, residents, 40 miles east of Indianapolis, reported a speeding automobile that swept along the na- tional road toward Richmond. This is a route that might lead to Carson’s native territory near Liberty, Ind. State police reported they believed papers found in the apartment here, rented November 29 by a man and woman under the name of D. E. Cole- man, established a link with the Levy shooting.

By the Associated Press. ‘The National Economy League last night advanced a plan for balancing the national budget in the next fiscal year by cutting relief and public works outlays to $1,000,000,000. With this and other retractions, i estimated total revenues at $5,313,- 000,000, and total disbursements at $4,540,383,000, leaving a surplus after a statutory debt retirement of $772,- 617,000. The league was organized three years ago, with Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd as head of its National Com- mittee, to advocate ways of reducing Government spending. Its present director is Henry H. Curran, New York attorney. Would Eliminate A. A. A. ‘The league figured that, in addition to the sharp relief slash, $100,000,000 could be chopped from funds for pub- lic works and $400,000,000 saved by eliminating A. A. A. benefit payments to farmers. “The budget for the fiscal year be- ginning July 1, 1936, can be balanced,” the league said. “It can be balanced without sacrificing necessary relief and without crippling any necessary Government service. “The plan we propose reduces ex- penditures which are likely to be made if present policies are carried forward by approximately $4,500,000,000. Our plan calls for no increase over the rev- enues which would be available if the prospective unbalanced budget 15 adopted. “It does, however, substitute a draft on R. P. C. assets resulting from the liquidation of that agency for process- ing taxes now levied to finance crop payments. “In the regular budget the chief cut is the elimination of crop benefit pay- ments with slight reductions in pros- pective expenditures for the Army and Navy and for regular public works. “The greatest cut is in emergency outlays, for we propose a reduction of nearly four billion doilars in the emergency outlays, which will »e made it present plans for public works, work relief and various experiments and credit subsidies are carried forward into the next fiscal year without modi- fication. Opposes Borrowing. “As to relief, we believe that $500,- t | 000,000 for subsidies to State relief funds will be ample to care for those actually .in need after July 1, 1936. Further, we submit that a return to ‘co-operative subventions' will result in & sounder and more practicable plan of handling relief than the present cumbersome machinery for work relief. “We must make an end to the policy of borrowing to pay for relief. The present plan of financing elaborate made-work projects with borrowed funds is thoroughly unsound. * * * “Not only is our proposed budget in balance, but besides meeting statutory debt retirements, it provides an ad- ditional surplus of $264,617,000 which may be used for further debt retire- ment. If the President and Congress adopt some such budget as is here pro- posed, they will have taken an im- portant step toward real recovery.” . Baby No Fish. WATERTOWN, Wis.
