The see of the diocese, established here May 6, 1834, by Pope Gregory XVI, since has been removed to Indianapolis. Beneath blue skies and 'a burning sun, the Most Rev. Amleto Giovanni Cicognani, apostolic delegate to the United States, celebrated poniti'fical high mass at an outdoor altar cf a plaza which later in the day was dedicated to the memory of Father Pierre Gibault, pioneer patriot priest, who played a prominent part in acquisition of the Northwest Territory by the United States. Ten thousand persons, gathered about the plaza, remained reverently silent while the apostolic delegate conducted the liturgical ceremonies of the mass. Honors Pioneer, Patriot.

The Most Rev. James H. Ryan, bishop of Modra and rector of Catholic University of Washington, who accompanied the apostolic delegate, preached the sermon. He paid tribute to Simon Brute de Remur, tht first bishop of Vincennes. 'The delicately-reared Brute," said the.

Rev." Mr. Ryan," "who had spent most of his life among bocks as a professor of philosophy and theology, arriving in Vincennes on November 5, 1834, could have hardly looked forward to a life of ease in such a desolate forest, nor could ha have hoped to achieve great results with the meager resources which ht discovered on his arrival. "He immediately, however, plunged with unwonted real into his episcopal work, completing the parish church which became his cathedral, founding a seminary, traveling to scattered missions of his diocese, recruiting candidates for the priesthood, establishing churches and schools for both the Indians and Catholic settlers. His zeal was noteworthy, his interest in education profound and the holiness of his life so marked that he died in the odor of sanctity, the memory of which endures to this day." Medallion of Bishop.

Judge Frank Baker, in criminal court, Monday postponed until Thursday forenoon return of grand jury indictments purported to name former officials of the Meyer-Kiser Bank. The judge said political significance might be attached to the return of the indictments on the eve of the primary election, and that he regarded it to be in the interests of Herbert E. Wilson, prosecutor, to delay the grand Jury's report.

Although the grand Jury foreman appeared in criminal court Friday and told the bailiff the indictments in the "Meyer-Kiser case" were ready. Judge Baker had left the city to attend the Kentucky. Derby, at Louisville, and could not be reached immediately. Issues Formal Statement. Shortly after Judge Baker arrived in the courtroom Monday he issued a formal statement postponing the grand jury report.

It follows: "In order that the prosecutor may not be subjected to criticism of having timed the grand Jury report for its political effect on his can didacy, no report of the grand Jury will be received until Thursday morning of this week. The grand I. Jurors and the prosecutor are under oath to keep secret the proceedings of the grand jury. Wilson Is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Judge of superior court, Room 5. The elec tion is to be held Tuesday.

The indictments, It was reported, resulted from information obtained in affidavits filed by Alvah J. Ruck er, special investigator appointed by Judge Earl R. Cox of circuit court. Rucker sought to file the affidavits, which charge embezzlement, with Judge Eaker but the Judge referred them to Wilson. The investigation in turn was placed by the prosecutor in the hands of the grand jury, with Floyd J.

Mattice, chief deputy prosecutor, in charge. For several months the affairs of the bank have been under investigation, but only recently was the information given to the grand Jury. Deposits of $1,743,733.52 were held by the Meyer-Kiser Bank when it was closed. The deposits, however, were used for investments, it was alleged, and the assets of the bank have been appraised at approxi mately 25 per cent, of the total deposits. I winners in 1933.

As it is today, congress contends that it had no way to adjust itself to the President's views once he made them known after a series of concessions involving compromises when the veterans' bill was before the senate.

The new procedure which Mr. Roosevelt is. trying will not diminish in any respect, the necessity or importance of compromises in legislation, especially as bills pass through controversial states In the senate or house or in conference committee. Task Is Complicated. However, it will serve to focus attention on mistakes which the President feels should be corrected, yet which do cot warrant the risks that a veto entails, especially in a campaign year, when the President and his party do not wish to be forced into open disagreement." It is a complicated piece of business at best to get a new tax bill through the two houses.

Parliamentary procedure blocks amendments that are of the type that emasculate meanings and destroy effectiveness. The house rules prevent such tactics, and at the same time in manycaes prevent good amendments from being adopted. When a bill get on the senate floor, the fact that there are no gag rules about amendments and the knowledge that debate can be more or less prolonged prompt the senator in i charge of a bin to accept amendments Russell Forrest Campbell, 832 South Sheffield avenue, Is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Forrest Campbell.

At the same time police sought the persons who last week placed a bomb at the rear of an east side home occupied by an employe of the Real Silk mill. Mayor Reginald H.

to sign the bill and ask for immediate revision. If the President fails to get affirmative action on his request for repeal, then it will be apparent that no other method of reaching the difficulty is going to be effective. The evils growing out of the Inability of the President to Veto one item in a bill have produced logrolling nnd agreements between groups that make it difficult for certain provisions to be, eliminated without endangering the passage of the whole measure. Thus many members of congress are defending their votes for the increase in their own salaries on the ground that they did not wish to vote against the other provisions of the came measure. The latter was one of those all-inclusive bills known as the Independent office appropriations and hence had in it dozens cf Items, Including, for instance, the restoration of certain pay allowances for war veterans.

Other Items Cited. In this case Mr. Roosevelt vetoed the bill, but congress, by an overwhelming vote, refused to sustain his veto because there were many other things in the bill which they desired to see enacted at once. Had the President, on the other hand' signed the measure and. immediately attention to he regarded a violation of the principles which he had set forth as governing veterans compensation, he could have made an issue cn that point and pressed congress to vote on it.

From the plaza Oovernor McNutt looked out over the Clark memorial and the Lincoln memorial bridge which spans the Wabash river at the point where Abraham Lincoln in his youthful days left Indiana and crossed to his future home in Illinois.

The "old way was to send a veto message and trust to the loyalty of his party that two-thirds of the congress would not override the veto. This has the disadvantage of producing friction between the President and the members of his party, because they are in the same dilemma that he is in, namely inability to separata the items they dislike from the items they favor snd yet get the bill through to final passage. Mr. Roosevelt has been advised that it might be better to let the original measure go through, sign it, and then ask congress immediately to repeal the objectionable provisions. This is what has happened with the tax bill Mr.

Roosevelt does not believe the provision putting a tax on cocoanut oil is fair to the Philippines, 11 the Constitution permitted him to veto that item and yet accept the remainder cf the measure, it would be a simple matter. Agitation for such an amendment to the Constitution has been going on for many years. Test Can Be Made. A test of its practicability can be made now by the method Mr. Roosevelt has just tried.
