MANY BILLS TO | BE INTRODUCE!) Special Session Os Legislature To Be Convened Tuesday Indianapolis.

Administration leaders started drafting a bill appropriating $20.- , 000 for expenses of the special ] session, indicating they expect the i session to last about eight days. 1 ' Cost of a session usually amounts i 1 to about $1.1400 per day. Observers predicted, however. I \that the legislature would be con- 1 ivened for at least two weeks, par-1 ■ tlcularly in view of a possible fight over whether to include a new $3,- | 000,000 state office building in the ! construction program. Gov. M. Clifford Townsend has . decided not to recommend the office building but several lawmak- , ■ ers announced they would try tot have it included. Townsend will I j approve the structure if the as- , semhly decides it should be built. i Swiss Preacher At Magley Church Sunday ] Rev. L.

FEENEY LEABS BY 22 VOTES

Al Feeney Continues To Make Gain In Recount Os V otes Indianapolis. July 15—(U.K)— Al G. Feeney, who was declared defeated on the Democratic ticket for the nomination of Marion coun- jty sheriff in the May primary, to-] day held a lead of 22 votes over j Charles Lutz, successful candidate, I in a recount of 247 of the county's , 336 precincts. The recount figures now stand at 17.027 votes for Feeney and 17.005 for Lutz. This compares with the official canvassing board totals of 16.732 for Feeney and 18,983 for Lutz for the same pre cincts tabulated immediately following the primary. Another case of irregularity was found in yesterday's recounting of ballots in the seventh precinct of the 20th ward. The recount board held that four votes for Feeney had been erased and “x" marks placed in squares for Lutz. Meanwhile, attorneys for crim inal court Judge Frank P. Bakei charged they w’ere not given an opportunity to be heard by the state supreme court before it issued a permanent writ restraining Judge Baker from proceeding with a public welfare, the distributions to be made to the counties for wel- < fare purposes in 1938 total $6,220.392.30. The distributions are made from the state general fund, to which the gross income tax is by far the largest contributor.

county grand jury investigation of vote irregularities. The attorneys said they had planned to file briefs in protest to granting of a permanent writ but j that the high court had ruled sooner than was originally scheduled. The supreme court ruling gave Herbert M. Spencer, Marion county prosecutor, authority to proceed with the investigation. Judge Baker had previously charged before leaving on a vacation that some of the prosecutor's deputies were involved in the election frauds and, therefore, the prosecutor’s office should not be permitted to conduct the investigation. o — FIRST FARLEY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) added: "For some reason, known only to himself, Smith always had a tendency to underrate the ability of his successor (as New York governor) even when they were working side by side. "Roosevelt’s genuine confidence in the happy warrior was not returned and they were never as close as the public imagined. In the salty language which he used •i private conversation. Al had been known to refer to F. D. R. as a visionary and to speak lightly . ,-egarding Roosevelt's knowledge [ of public questions. On the other j hand, even though Roosevelt was Jeeply hurt al the misnnderstandng between 'i ent, I have never heard him utter ah unkind or uncharitable remark about his former I colleague." In this article, Farley pictures ] Harrison, half-clad, running at ] night from a hotel room to pre- i vent an early ballot Mississippi bolt from Roosevelt. A loss ot' the , Mississippi delegation at that stage ;

might have been fatal. But Garner gave Mr. Roosevelt the final push over the top, and, Farley emphasizes, without any previous deal to be nominated for vice president. Delegates had sat all night through speeches and three inconclusive ballots when Garner telephoned Sam Rayburn. I)., Tex., his Chicago convention manager. Here are Garner's instructions to Raybum as related by Farley: “I think it is time to break tliat thing up. This man Roosevelt is the choice of that convention. He ' has had a majority on three ballots. We don’t want to be responsible for tying up the convention and bringing on another Madison Square Garden that might defeat the party candidate in November. The nomination should be decided on the next ballot.” That night Gov. Roosevelt was nominated. It is notable in this first instalment of Farley's story that he

speaks often and rather unkindly of McNutt, one of the Chicago convention stars who today is a candidate for Democratic presidential nomination in 1940. Farley's first story seems to emphasize that McNutt was judged by the RooseveltFarley camp to have been at least unfriendly in 1932. “We thought McNutt of Indiana was on our side.” Farley wrote, “until he declined to help us get an instructed delegation.” o Hospital “Saves” Fathers Buffalo, N.Y. —<U.R> "We haven't lost a father yet.” That's the proud boast of Children's hospital, which maintains a waiting room for the exclusive use of “expectant fathers." 1
