Staff Correspondent) Washington. Sept. 16.—Secretary of the Navy Wilbur has been summonsed to Washington by President Cool-! idge to put a stop to the activities of . a naval "junta” which is seeking to i make it appear that the budget bureau ’ is trying to “junk’’ the navy. ; Angered by the flood of inspired . propadanda aimed at the bureau at ■' a time when the 1925 naval estimates l are being prepared for congress. Mr. i Coolidge has called Mr. Wilbur to take charge of his department and put a stop to it. | This version of the summons which caused Wilbur to jump into an airplane at San Diego and start post| haste to Washington, was given to , the United Press today by an unques-. tioned authority. The president is a strong friend of 1 a strong navy, but he is equally an I ardent supporter of the budget syr.-j j tern. He considers departmental pro-.' | poganda at the budget bureau a vic-’ 11 ions attack at the fundamentals of. budgetry far outside the province of legitimate departmental activities. Navy department estimates submitted to the budget bureau several weeks ago asked for appropriations 1 of about $350,000,000. The bureau re- * 1 turned them on August 12 with a re- | quest that they be pared to within 1 I $300,000,000. in effect making a cut i of about $.50,000,000. Upon this action there began to appear in the press articles under the signature of naval officers of high rank and obviouly inspired articles ’ unsigned, which attacked the budget bureau for its alleged parsimony and predicted dire disaster for the Ameri- . can navy if more money were not allowed. i Mr. Coolidge watched this for some time and now, with General Lord com--1 mencing discussions with naval heads, to reach an agreement on the final figures, he has decided it is time to 1 . act. | , o I No Serious Damage I From Recent Frost (United Press Service) I. Indianapolis, Sept. 16. —No serious 1 damage was done corn or vegetable ] crops by the frost last week except possibly in one or two localities. This was the belief expressed today by Miner M. Justin, agricultural statistician here. Only in one place was the tempera- , ture as low as 32, according to a . weather bureau report. L In order to be killing the-weather must, bo cold enough to freeze onesixteenth of an inch of water and continue that way tor a considerable ( period of time, Justin declared. ' The cool weather, however, he ' j

said, retards the drops and cuts down the final yield regardless of whether it Is cold enough to freeze or not. Regardless of the prediction that the toaiato crop In Indiana may be cut nearly fifty per cent this year, the state will still maitain its lead this year as a tomato producing state. The August prediction for the tomato yield was 320,000 tons, or yield 72 per cent of normal. Maryland, the next state in production will only have a yield of 191.000 tons, - -o Governors’ Conference In Florida. Nov. 17 To 20 Madison, Wis., Sept. 16.—The sixteenth annual governors’ conference will be held in Jacksonville. Fla.. Nov. 17 to 20, Miles Riley, secretary to the conference since 1911, announced today. Attendance of governors-elect as ( [ well as governors this year will make I the conference the largest in history, , Riley said. Gov. Branch Refuses Clemency To 38 Persons Indianapolis, Sept. 16. — (Special to Daily Democrat)—Petitions of 38 persons for executive clemency were refushed by governor Branch today. At the same time the goverpor granted panions to six persons serving time at the state prison at Michigan City or at the Pendleton reformatory. o CHICAGO GRAIN CLOSE Wheat: Sept. $1.28*4; Dec. $133%. May $1.40*4. Corn: Sept. $1.19; Dec. $1.13%; May $1.14*4. Oats: Sept. 48%c; Dec. 53c; May 57%c. o Can Not Use Voting Machines This Fall (United Press Service) Indianapolis, Sept. 16—(Special to Daily Democsat)- The state board of election commissioners today was making preparations to have 1.965 Ou;) Auntralian ballots printed for Ike coming general election. With eight or nine tickets practically certain to be entered, voting machines used in twenty-two counties last election will have to be discarded The voting machines can carry only seven tickets. Return to the old Australian ballot I throughout the state is viewed with j disfavor by political leaders. The : ballot makes scratching easier and delays tabulation of returns on election night. Wants Davis To Make Another Speech In State (United Press Service) Indianapolis. Sept. 16—(Special to Daily Democrat) — Lincoln Dixon, democratic western campaign manager. was urged today by Waiter Chambers, state chairman, to add ‘another speaking iipagement to the itinerary for John W. Davis, cem>> cratic presidential nominee, wbea | Davis invades Indiana next Friday and Saturday. | Chambers wants the standard bear:ir to st<ak either at Michigan City or Laporte. o Insist That Horse Thief Detectives Quit (United Press Service) inton, Ind., Sept. 16. —Greens county commissioners today insisted that all “Horse thief detectives” in the county surrender their commission. It has been reported that if the association of “horse thief detectives” ,continue to act that charges of impersonating, officers will be filed against them or they may subject themselves to civil suits for damages. The "detectives”, however claim they cannot be deprived of their rights by the commissioners. They claim that they can serve under special deputation from the sheriff or other regular peace officers. —o Gordon Engeler Pledges To Sigma Chi Fraternity i Gordon "Squire" Engeler, former j Decatur high school athlete, who enrolled as a freshman in Indiana Uni-' versify this week, has been pledged to the Sigma Chi fraternity. Squire, who was chosen as a tackle on the all-state high school football team in 1922, will try out for the freshman team at Indiana. oCan You Really Blame Them?

RESCUED FROM JAWS OF GIANT CROCODILE Incident English Officer is Not Likely to Forget. The following interesting account oft a thrilling tight with a powerful croco-, dlle In an Indian river is titd by tenant Colonel Carserly, in the Mon treal Family Herald: One afternoon the column halted by the river as usual und prepared tocamp. When the men had cleared the ground und set the pickets they fell out to get their food and rest. A captain, unslinging his empty wuter bottle, went to the river to till it. At that spot the bank was perhaps four feet high und rose straight up. It curved in u sharp bend, and the wuter close In ashore was shallow. There was no current near the bank, but only a few yards out the deep and mighty stream swept along like a mill 1 race. The officer knelt on the bunk and, lowering the bottle by Its long strap, turned bls head to speak to a subhadar (native company commander) near him. Half u dozen sepoys, some holding their rifles, were standing close by. Suddenly out of the still water un der the bank came a monstrous head, and like a trout rising to a fly a huge crocodile snapped at the white man's outstretched hand. The great Jaws closed on It, and in a twinkling the officer wu down in the river! As he . 'll the astonished soldiers gasped in horror. Then without hesitation two or three leaped in after him. Standing waist deep, they clung to the captain’s body and strove to pull him away from the giant reptile, which was backing out into deeper water. The Englishman, with his hand in the crocodile's mouth, was too dazed to struggle, and submitted passively to be pulled this way and that in the grim tug of war. The native officer snatched a rifle from the man besid • i him and jumping into the water tired at the monster at a yard’s range. A I sepoy followed his example, but nei- ' ther mun thought of aiming at the eyes, and so their shots had no es- ; feet; an old crocodile’s hide is Im- , penetrable to bullets except in the throat, the belly and behind shoulders. The weight and strength of the brute was too much for the united es- ■ forts of the men. In vain they dug ) ( their heels into the yielding sand anil . pulled with all their might and main. , Slowly, remorselessly, the officer was drawn farther out; the sepoys clinging to him were dragged with him. I The Englishman seemed doomed. 1 ! The crocodile was swimming now tail : i foremost out into the swift, racing * flood. Then a miracle happened! When It seemed that nothing could save the man the strong current caught the monster with full force and swept It away, and by a marvelous stroke of > luck the officer's hand was torn from its mouth. The irregular teeth of a crocodile ( fortunately do not fit close together. , So little Injured was the captain that ’ after the doctor had bound up his ’ hand he was able to attend to his ' duties Immediately. Tennis Thirty Years Ago “A well known tennis player of the 1 Doherty period told me an amusing • story the other day. He said he used | to play on a public court in one of the 1 squares in Kensington some thirty years ago. There Whs a large notice up to (he effect that ‘gentlemen were requested not to play in their shirt sleeves.’ It goes to show the type of lawn tennis that was played in those days. ' “Tliis player also told me how he remembers going to stay at a certain country house, and how some irate colonel became quite angry with him for volleying. The player was told what bad form it was." —From Lawn Tennis, by F. Gordon Lowe. Taking No Chances A troop of barnstormers out from Liverpool were in imminent danger of I stranding In Wales. “We got to get out of Wales before we strand," declared one, “and that’s ail there is to it.” “What’s the difference," asked another, “whether we break up in Wales or elsewhere?” "I was once stranded in a town called Llcreigolllwh and from there I I wrote to my friends for help. Os course they all thought I was on a I spree and nobody would send me a cent." How It Was Done A sportsman with a wonderful power of imagination was telling how at ' one shot he bad bagged two partridges and a rabbit. His explanation was that, though he bad hit only one part-; ridge, the bird in falling had clutched ' at another partridge and brought that to earth In its claws. “But how about the rabbit?" he was asked. "Oh,” was the calm reply, "my gun; I kicked and knocked me over, imd I fell on the rabbit as It ran past.”— Edinburgh Scotsman. Immense Difference “I tell you, sir, I have played In all the largest theaters In Europe." "Yes, but they’re nothing compared with the theaters we have in America. Why, sir, we have theaters so big that when a man in the bock seat throws an egg it hatches out before it reaches the stage.”—London Tit-Bits. I
