Monday's article deals with pedestrians' rights and duties der the new ordinance. RIGHTS and duties defined of the pedestrians model clcarly in municipal traffic ordinance which goes into effect here June 25. But the success of the ordinance in this respect can be assured only with equal courtesy being shown both by drivers ands pedestrians. Section the code explains that at intersections where traffic is controlled by traffic control signals or by police officers, drivers of vehicles should yield the right of way to pedestrians crossing or those who have to cross' the roadway on a green or "go" signal, and in all other cases pedestrians shall yield the right of way to vehicles lawfully proceeding directly ahead on a green or "go" signal.
Under the new code, also, Section 19 points out that pedestrians shall move, whenever practicable, upon the right half of cross walks. When cars turn right on a green light pedestrians moving across the street with the green have the right of way over the vehicle. May Turn on Red Vehicles, however, are permitted to make right hand turns against the red lights, but before doing so must be brought to a full stop. As has been the rule, no turns are permitted under the new ordinance at Michigan and Washington avenues. The new code also contains a section devoted to hitch hikers.
This section. No. 20, makes it unlawful for hitch hikers to stand in the street to solicit rides. It states: "It shall be unlawful person to stand in a roadway for "The purpose of soliciting a ride from the operator of any private vehicle." Passing streetcars on the left side is prohibited.

Must Stop behind Street Car A motorist overtaking a standing streetcar or one about to stop to receive or discharge passengers, must his vehicle to the rear nearest running board or door of the car and keep the vehicle standing DEPRESSION CAUSE DISCUSSED BY DAVIS Pennsylvania Senator Says Industry Bit Off More Than It Could Chew GETTYSBURG, June 8 (P)- Economic indigestion was put forth as one of the "main contributing causes of the business ailments" affecting the United States in the "world wide epidemic of trade depression" Monday by Senator Davis of Pennsylvania. The former secretary lator said. in addressing the graduating class at Gettysburg college here. that "the eyes of industry have been bigger than its stomach." "It is evident," he said, "that industry has been biting off more than it can chew in its orgy of unrestricted high-pressure production output, which far exceeds sound consumption demands, and which is contrary to fundamental principles of economic law. The logical remedy suggests itself is for industry to selfregulate its production diet.
so that the normal demands of the national consumption appetite may be soundly fulfilled." Davis said, however, that over-production alone was not responsible for the cconomic situation. but that there were many causes varied and perplexing that they are almost beyond the comprehension of mankind." The pay envelope of the workman and the purse of the farmer. Davis were the foundation stones of national prosperity" and declared that "reckless price slashing and drastic reduction policies are clear evidence of economic insanity."

THE STATE JOURNAL, LANSING, MICHIGAN, MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1931 FORCES PREPARE FOR ATTACK Leaders of Southern Revolt Fortify Two Important Sea Coast Cities SUPPORT NOT ACCORDED Instigators of Movement Against Nationalists Had Hoped for Aid HONG KONG, June 8 of the new Cantonese government Monday were preparing for an expected, attack by the armies of Chiang head of the Chinese nationalist government. Nationalist forces were concentrating near Foochow. Instigators of the southern movement against the nationalist government hoped for support of militarists throughout China, but except for the allegiance of Kwangsi, province forces, this has not materialized. The Cantonese coalition government is composed of the extreme right and extreme left of the kuomintang or people's party.
The large middle section of the party supports the nationalists. Announcing he planned immediately to take personal charge of the government's military drive against reds bandits in Kiangsi and Hunan provinces, Chiang described this as "the worst menace 110W threatening China." Nanchang dispatches Monday said government troops routed 20.000 bandits from southeast Kiangsi Sunday and captured the communist stronghold. Futien. Chiang referred only in veiled terms to the insurgent government southern China, merely warning his soldiers that he desired them to refrain from participating in civil wars "such AS reactionary elements repeatedly seethe nationalist instigate." generalissimo denied he planned to resign immedireports, the result of attacks against his administration by the southern insurgents. He declared.
however, if he was successful, in crushing the Hunan bandits he would retire to his birthplace near Ningpo, "thereby proving to, the world and nation that I have no ambition to establish A dictatorship nor another Gynasty as charged by my reactionary enemies." "And I will end this brigand rule in the Yangtse valley or die in the attempt." Chiang asserted. Meanwhile leaders of the Kwangtung insurrectionists mined the harbor of Swatow and the Canton river expected government attacks. against, were taken to defend the two cities against anticipated air raids. Southern rebels. believing that behind talk of President Chiang are active preparations for war.
have taken steps to defend at least two points where they expect the nationalist government to strike. Mines Planted Both Swatow harbor and the ton river have been mined against attacks from the sea. Canton and Swatow are on the seacoast of Kwangtung province, seat of the rebellion. Leaders also have moved to defend the two important cities against anticipated air raidervousness concerning the divisions, movements of the 60th and 61st now at Kanchow. Kiangsi province, has been dissipated by reports the leader of these troops, Chiang KwangNat.
is sending a representative to Canton. It is believed these divisions are back of the movement against Chiang Kal-Shek's government and that they will be diverted to the Swatow district. The two divisions are troops cf Chen Ming-Shu. former governor of Kwangtung. Lately they have operated against Reds and bandits in Hunan province.
sudden movement of the two divisions toward eastern Kwangtung recently gave rise to the fear they were advancing to suppress the rebellion. But it now is believed they were merely proceeding to the aid of the anti-government movement. Chinese sentiment here and at Canton 1s overwhelmingly against President Chiang, but there is some fear of leftist elements in the government and army, although these at present are in an ineffective minority. The Canton government is seeking by every means to raise more revenuc to support Kwangsi province and the newly recruited troops it boasts, numbering about 75.000. This number is regarded as insufficient to launch an attack against Nanking, the seat of Chiang's government, however, and Canion leaders are awaiting some move in this direction by Feng Yu-Hsiang and Yen Hsi-Shan in the north.
Despite the beliefs of southern leaders, however, the Kwangsi troops, together with General Chang Fat-Kwai's "ironside" armies, have offered to capture Hankow. a government stronghold, three weeks, thus adding revenue to the depleted Canton coffers. Canton has appealed to the powers to withdraw their recognition of Chiang's government. EDWARD J. LUCAS.

BIG BANK MERGERS HAVE BEEN EFFECTED Second Largest Financial House Absorbs Third In Size Monday BUSINESS CONTINUES Six Outlying Institutions Close Pending Adjustment of Status CHICAGO, June 8 (P second largest bank in Chicago.
the First National Monday absorbed the third in size, the Foreman State National, while another merger of big banks created a new third place financial institution with the formation of the Central Republic bank from the National Bank of the Republic and the Central Trust company. Prime movers in the combinations were Melvin A. Traylor, president of the First National, Charles G. Dawes, ambassador to the court of St. James, and honorary chairman of the Central Trust, and George M.
Reynolds, chairman of the Continental Illinois National bank and of the Chicago Clearing House association. The clearing house came into the merger through its indorsem*nt of the absorption of the Foreman bank with a guarantee of $10,000,000 on Foreman deposits during readjustment of its affairs into those of the First National. Business Proceeds Business went forward as usual at all four banks while arrangements for transfer of business were completed, but six outlying small banks allied with Foreman closed voluntarily pending adjustment of their status resulting from the merger. The only unusual activity in the Loop banks was at the Foreman-State, where signs informed depositors that the institution was now a part of the First National bank. President Traylor, of the First National, informed persons waiting to make withdrawals at the ForemanState that the institution was now a part of one of the biggest banks in the country, backed by almost unlimited resources.
Many left without withdrawing money. The largest of the outlying banks to close was the Sheridan Trust and Savings bank, an affiliate of the Foreman State. Directors announced that "with deposit liabilities of 200,000" they had requested the auditor of public accounts to take charge pending reorganization plans. "This action was taken to protect the depositors owing to low cash reserve," said the directors' statement. Decide Not to Open Directors of the South Side Savings Bank and Trust company announced that "in view of the withdrawal of the support of the interests identified with the Foreman State National bank.
and deeming it for the best interest off all depositors," they had decided not to open. Other small banks which did not open Monday were the Cheltenham Trust and Savings bank, the InlandIrving National bank, the Industrial State bank, and the Washington Park National bank. With the consolidations, the First National became an institution with aggregate resources of approximately $883,000.000, making it second only to the Continental Illinois in Chicago. Merger of the Central Trust and National Bank of the Republic under the name Central Republic Bank and Trust brings the total resources of what will be the city's third largest bank to $350,000,000.

KIRKLAND PENALTY MAY BE CHANGED Judge Gives Reasons Case Still Is in Jurisdiction Of Court VALPARAISO, June 8 (P- Circuit Judge Grant Crumpacker advanced additional reasons Monday why the case of Virgil Kirkland, sentenced to Pendleton reformatory for the death of Arlene Draves of Gary, was still in his jurisdiction. The court said it had "Illegally and prematurely" issued papers committing Kirkland to the reformatory. The record of the trial had not been signed prior to issuing the commitment papers, the proper procedure.
Judge Crumpacker said the papers still were Monday, thus insuring his jurisdiction. He has ordered arguments held Tuesday on the state's contention that the sentence of 1 to 10 years in the reformatory should have been 5 to 21 years in the penitentiary with a $1,000 fine. "I was hurried into issuing papers prematurely by the sheriff's fear of mob law," he said.

ACHIEVES SUCCESS IN SECOND CAREER Grand Old Man of University Of Michigan Still Active In Work ANN ARBOR, June 8.
(P)-The grand old man of the University of Michigan faculty is Dr. Wilbert B. Hinsdale, who at the age of 80 is achieving outstanding success in his second career. Dr. Hinsdale was dean of the homeopathic medical college from 1895 until 1922 when he was retired as professor emeritus of theory and practice of medicine at the age of 71.
But retirement merely gave him opportunity to turn his attention to another field of learning -archaeology. Since 1922 he has devoted his full time to the study of the peoples who inhabited the Great Lakes region before the coming of white men. He has led parties of scientists to all parts of Michigan, excavating Indian mounds and inclosures and digging out facts previously known about the original inhabitants of the state. He has visited every county excepting Gogebic in the far western part of the northern peninsula and may study that county this summer. Democratic Leaders Term Dr.
