The two persons who were injured were net seriously hurt and were recovering today. The casualties were Miss Carrie Jaques, Warsaw school teacher,'who ' was bruised and shaken when the wind : hurled her to the ground, and John Lewey, who was struck by a brick ; shaken loose from a building and suf- ' sered a scalp wound. Many stories of narrow escapes were being recounted today. Several auto- : mobile drivers considered it miraculous that they were not hurt when their machines were blown over. The heaviest damage was concentrated on the west side of Warsaw where the storm struck first. There ’ young tiees were torn from the ground 1 by the roots, buildings were unrooted and some small sheds collapsed. Other Cities Affected Indianapolis, May 24 —(UP) —Northern Indiana cities from South Bend to Indianapolis weie in a potentially dangerous storm area Monday, but only at Warsaw did the high winds reach tornado force. One man was injured in Indianapolis, but although residents were apprehensive, the storm did not even ap-; I ptoach the proportions of the tornado , from which this city has not yet recovered. Lafayette, Kokomo, Anderson, Marion. Muncie. Huntington. Wabash. Fort Wayne South Bend and Indianapolis were among cities that suffered more of less damage in the storm. Evidently low atmospheric pressure prevailed over all the northern half of the state. o 400 Thrown Out Os Work Ashland, Pa., May 24. —(UP)—Four hundred men were thrown out of employment and damage estimated at more than $300,000 sustained today when fire destroyed the Breaker at the Hazlebrook Coal company colliery near Girardville.

MORAL ISSUE UF DRY LAW RAISED Question Os Violating Prohibition Law To Save Life Is Raised Indianapolis, May 24. — (United Press (--Attorney General Arthur L. Gillium's unusual presentation of his plea for modification of the Indiana Right Bone Dry Law to permit sale of medicinal whiskey today brought discussion of the moral issue of whether violation of the law is justifiable to save human life. The attorney general, a close friend i of Gov. Ed Jackson, disclosed that the governor had obtained whiskey from I the private stock of a friend in order to save the life of Mrs. Jackson while she was seriously ill recently. The governor technically violated the Wright Bone Dry Law. Gilliom, who did likewise a year ago while '! three of his children were ill, contended Governor Jackson was justified. | The few physicians who would ' permit use of their names made cau- '. t'ous statements, categorically supI ! porting the governor but dry leaders i were positive in contrary opinions, . expressing, generally, the belief that despite the experiencs of Governor Jackson and Gilliom, the law should ■ stay on the statute books in Its pres- • ent form. Frank E. Wright, of Indianapolis, • slate representative and author of the “Bone Dry” bill, criticized Gil- . Horn, declaring that “there is no medicinal value in whiskey, and if , whiskey prescriptions were permitted, 99 per cent of them would be used for bootlegging.’’ To a hypathetical question, he replied that “If my wife’s life was in danger, and if I thought that I could save her by the use of whiskey, I certainly would try it." E. S. Shumaker, superintendent of the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, said bis organization would ignore Giiliom's letter. Gilliom Is Awaiting Action On His Brief Indianapolis, May 25. — (UP) —Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom today is awaiting action on the brief he filed in supreme court Saturday in support of the state's contention that D. C. tSephenson should not be grant- ■ ed his liberty from the Indiana state prison on a writ of habeas corpus. The writ was denied in the Laporte circuit court December 30. and an appeal has been taken. Attorneys for Stephenson said they will file a motion soon asking that the supreme court advance the case for immediate hearing and that a time be fixed within which all briefs shall be filed. Stephenson is serving a life sen-

tence for the murder of Miss Madge Oberholtzer, of Indianapolis. —— —o —— - ■ Smallest Bible London (United Press) —A copy of the New Testament which Is smaller than a two-ccnt postage stamp and is said to lie the smallest book in the
