Scion of Pioneer Clan Urged for Cabinet Post * * • mm • ' < Ancestor Signed Mayflower Compact, May , Become First Woman Cabinet ; Member in U. S. , Grace Abbott *

Washington, June 23 — (UP) — Miss Grace Abbott head of the Children's Bureau of the Department of Labor may become the first woman cabinet member in the history of the Uuited States. Political experts predict tnat her appointment to succeed Secretary of James J. Davis, now riming fur U. S. Senator from Pennsylvania, would be a master strategic | move on the part of President Hoover. Equipped by experience and tem peiam nt for this important pos ! ,j the President's choice of Miss Ab-! boU would probably poll him more t'emiuine votes in 1932 than any other single tiling he could do. With discontent with the tariff an 1 unemployment situations serio.i !v endangering his re-election chances, Mr. Hoover is being strong Iy advised to take the unprecedented step of making a woman the executive of a vital governmental depat tment. The selection by Ramsey Mac Donald of Miss Margaret Bondfield tor English Secretary of Labor is being pointed out to Mr. Hoover as a similar instance of stagacious politics Miss Abbott is being backed for the Labor portfolio by countless I wemen. Secretary Davis, himself: and the Nebraska Congressional! deiegatlon. She belongs to the elev-j enth generation of a famous pioneering American family. One of he ancestors signed the May flour cotnpgD Several of her forefathers were founders ot the first Connactii:u* settlements and others were in llie van of the forty-niners. Miss AboH, herself, was born a few years after her parents crossed the middle-western prairies. t oi hman Abbott, her father served ■ as first lieutenant-governor 'of Nebrnst a In her present high position, Miss ! Afchi tt has proved herself an es- . i ficent and wide-visioned executive, After graduating from Grand, Island

College in Nebraska siie received a master's degree in political sm nee from the University of Chicago Law School. For.several years she directed the Immigrants' Protective League in tno Windy City, and then went to worl; for the government. Her rise to power was steady and sure. As the importance of her duties | increased, she proved she was worthy of greater responsibilities. In ad lition to her official work she nad served on many social welfare j ommittees. Unlike many feminine leaders. Miss / bbott has never leaned toward masculine attire. Today she ures-es in the same attractive, womanly clothes as the ordinary ladv of means. Os the secretaryship, she says ‘ I will make no campaign. The secretaryship is a great responsibility 1 would not shirk it. I am not afraid of work.’ Last Request Granted Nobletsville, Ind., June 23—(U.R)— G. A. It. Commander Isaac B. Austin's last request was fulfilled yesterday—a request asking that he be buried at the close of day with military honors. Noblesville, home of the Civil j War veteran, lowered its flags to' half mast while the body, borne on . Ja calf son and escorted by a mili- . I tary guard, wound through the i city streets to the cemetery. Austin, elected departmental [ commander ot the State G. A. R. at its encampment at Wabash two t weeks ago, contracted pneumonia - after his resistance had been sapped by the strain of the annu< 1 I .meeting. Judge Moade Vestal, lifelong 1 friend of the commander, delivered s i the funeral oration. He was assiet- - ed by the Rev. A. L. Ward, pastor . j of the Christian church at Nobles--1 j ville.

♦ ♦ COUNTY AGENT | NEWS CLEAN GRAIN BINS TO THWART WEEVIL Lafayette, Ind., June 23—Thor-i ougli cleaning of the grain bin be-; fore putting' in newly harvested; and threshed grain is the first important step in preventing damage from grain weevils, according to Prof. J. J. Davis, head of the onto-j mology department, of the Purdue University agricultural experiment station. Grain weevils. Prof. Davis says, are a continual source of loss to farmers, but their damage may he greatly reduced by taking pro per precautions. All old grain should be removed a week or two before new grain is to be put in the bin. The bin should lie cleaned, and cracks where old grain might lodge should be sprayed with kerosene, to kill the weevils which might be in the grain. Sacks should be cleaned, to eliminate the possibility of harboring weevils in them. The grain should be threshed and stored promptly, to insure safety from infestation by weevils before it is 1 put into the bin. Friday, Sept. 26 Annual Swine Day Lafayette, Ind., June 23 —Friday, September 26, has been set as the date for the annual Swine Day, at Purduo Univeisity, it was announced today by C. M. Vestal, of the animal husbandry department, who for a number of years has had charge of the program for that day. Swine Day each year attracts hundreds of farmers from all parts of the s f atc. who attended the session to inspect tile experimental 'ots of pigs which have bpen fed under the direction of Mr. Vestal, and to learn of the results of these tests. On each program, a speaker who is nationally recognized as an authority on some phase of sv.ine production is included. Several different phases of the subject are discussed in the course of the day's events. Arrangements for the day’s

program are being started. TO CULL CHICKENS County Agent L. E. ArchboM states that he has had a number of inquiries regarding the culling of poultry flncks. With this in mind efforts are being made to have Mr. William Wohlnteyer poultry specialist of the Purdue Extension service put on some culling demonstrations late in July. At the present time it is perhaps not advisable to cull a flock too heavily. but to remove the broody hens and those with shrunken and faded combs. As soon as a definite date is set for Mr. Koblmeyer to be in Adams County it will be announced as will also the place of the demonstration. LOCAL MAN ABDUCTED; GETS 2,400 MILE AUTO RIDE i ,■ (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) ready. When Lister got in they jumped in also, fine sitting with him and the other getting in the I rear seat and producing a revolver, demanded that he turn west at the , first cross road. , All day and much of the night . they drove west, passing through 1 but few towns and at night stopped in a deep woods. The next t day or two was practically a repeti--1 j tion of the first. Guy cannot yet . remember much of what occurred r | except that he was given orders -1 occasionally and obeyed them. Fin- | ally some where far out west he

| was reelased and immediately I start<‘d home. After driving an en- ' tire day he reached St. Louis, Mo., j which is the only city he can reI member being in. He came home Thursday evening June 19, put j ills car in the garage and stag- ' gered into the house, almost im- ! mediately lapsing into unconsciousi ness. A physician was called who found that His nerve center was so shock- ! ed that his condition was most serious. He recovered some Saturday and today was able to talk with great effort, but was aide to sit up a part of the time and it is believed will recover after a complete rest. He returned with only a few cents in his pocket and the speedr, ometer on his car showed he had traveled over 2,4n0 miles in the five days. Police are working on the case trying to link the affair up 1 MCI U K OK «*!•»-:« » \I. MKKTIM. ok koi vry t ot \t ii.
