COX TO HELP DEMOCRATS IN INDIANA WIN State Needs Change from G. O. P. Mismanagement, He Says at Marion. By FELIX F. BRENER, Times Staff Correspondent. MARION, In<l., April 14.—Gov. James M. Cox of Ohio. In a speech here last night, declared that he expected to give i cuiiderable of his time during the present campaign to helping Indiana elect a democratic governor and send at least some democratic congressmen to Washington. “It doesn't take five minutes to convince ar.v citizen that yon ought to have a change in your state government," he said. Gov. Cox heartily approved the candidacy of Thomas Taggart for the United States senate. The banquet at which Gov. Cox spoke was attended by more than 300 persous. It was given under auspices of the Marion Jefferson club. Among other speakers were the four candidates for the democratic nomination for governor; Samuel Cook and Willaim Coryell, candidates for the democratic nomination for congress from the Eleventh district; Charles Hughes of Peru, candidate for the democratic nomination for auditor of state; George M. Rauch, former member of congress from the Eleventh district, and Mrs. Alice Poster .McCulloch of Ft. Wayne, chairman of the state organization of democratic women. On a motion by Bernard B. Shively. the meeting unanimously approved the candidacy of Mrs. McCulloch for delegate at large from Indiana to the democratic national convention.. When James K. Risk, one of th candidates for the nomination for governor, was called on he declared the democratic organization has been crooked in the past. H>* said h n would name some of the leaders who had a part In this crookedness. He started with Thomas Taggart, but he got no farther. There were cries of “sit down.” nr.d "your time is up" from all parts of the hall, and there was such a clapping of hands and such a general disturbance that the speaker was forced to sit down. The Eleventh district has previously been considered anything but a Taggart stronghoH. Gov. Cox told his audience that the republican hope of victory at the polls this fall is rapidly waning. “What the republicans held to be a “cinch" has been changed in the last two or three weeks,” he said. “What seemed to he a certain republican victory has developed into a mirage.” Gov. Cox declared that the defeat of the peace treaty in the senate was the “most disgraceful political episode in all the history of this country.” “I charge that the dominating Impulse behind the treaty cabal in the senate was to emasculate the peace pact so as to discredit -the president,” he said. Gov. Cox said the treaty was defeated not ewen by one-third of the senate, but by two men, Senators Borah a#<l Johnson. He referred to their warning to Senator Lodge that if he accepted any compromise on the reservations they would bolt the republican party and form a party of their own. Gov. Oox told of the treaty with Spain and how Senator Lodge, when that treaty was befone the senate, demanded of the democratic senators that they vote for ratification to prevent the president from suffering the KumiliaXion of returning to France with the treaty at the bidding of only a minority of the senate. GIVES RULINGS OS STATE PRIMARIES County committees of political parties In Indiana will appoint precinct committeemen in prccinifts created by division of other preciucts. as a result of the announcement of election law interpretations by the state election commission. There had been some question as to the right of a candidate who had filed in the old precinct to step into the vacancy ia anew one, blit Gov. Goodrich and his two election commissioners decided the appointive power should lie with the party organisations. The commiasiom followed the recent opinion of Ele Stansbury, attorney general, in deciding that women can not be delegates to state conventions this year nor candidate*; for county offices prior to the approval of the suffrage amendment. In determinitur tbe limit on campaign expenditures the 19}0 vote should be the guide in the ca.-te of four-year candidates and the 1918 vote in the case of twoyear candidates, the coiftuiission deeided. Under the law the legal amount for such expenditures is based on the number of votes cast for that office at the next prece*fing election. Names of all candidates for president, vice president and slate offices shall be placed on the ballot, it was decided, even though a candidate hits no opposition. Where there is only one candidate for precinct committeeman or any office of any subdivision of the state the name shall not he placed on the ballot but the candidate shall be certified by the election commissioners Just as though a primary election had been held.

LURES TEACHERS TO BACK TAX LAW (Continued From Cage One.) meeting a week ago in which Albert Baker, attorney for the school bo: r<l, was said to have made u remark to the effect that the tax law should be killed by the legislature. Mr. Zoercher pouted over the statement and intimated that it was unbecoming in view of the fact that the school board wished favors in regard to finances from the tax board. Mr. Baker, who was present at the meeting, arose and emphatically denied every having made such a statement. STENOGRAPHIC REPORT ANSWERS MR. BAKER. However, a stenographic report of the meeting alluded to was taken by Walter Carpenter and the following statementmade by Mr. Baker, and upon which The Times statement was based, is taken verbatim from the report: “I think if the legislature ever gets into session one thing that you must Oo is to help kill the whole of the tax law, which allows the tax board to coutrol your levy." This statement was made by Mr. Baker at the board meeting referred to in addition to other comments on the Goodrich tax measure. At the close of the session members of the tax hoard seized the opportunity <>f an audience to insist that the (to oil rich tax law. despite the torrent of ! criticism being made against it. is the greatest tax measure on the Indiana statutes. NEWSIE BANQUET SCORES BIG HIT Yum. yum. yum! The eats were great and the hospitality even better, if such a thing could be. So thought 750 newsboys and carriers of The Indiana Daily Times who were ggests at a dinner given last night by the Scottish Rite Masons at the Scottish Rite Temple. The Masons also had as their guests the carriers of the Indianapolis star and street newsboys for all papers, which increased the total number of banqueters to approximately I.COO. The Times carriers, boys and girls, as well as the street boys, met at The Times building at 6 o’clock and marched to the temple, where the audl torium and balcony were transformed into a banquet ball. The newsoojs’ band played several numbers while the banquet was in progress. Because of the large number present a program arranged by the Booster Trio and Harry I’orter was not given. The banquet was the main thing and the Masons certainly entertained their young guests li a wonderful manner, it was said. A dinner will be given Thursday night for the carriers of the Indianapolis News and this entertainment will conclude the plans of the Masons to eutertain every newsboy and carrier in Indianapolis. Those in charge of the arrangements last night for the Masons were W. H. Bockstahler, D. T. Billingsley, Martin T. Ohr and James W. Lilly. The program committee consisted of C. E. Chapman. B. C. Downey. John E. Milnor, Calvin \V. Busch, Rev. Louden A Harriman, Edson T. Folsom, H. L. Richardson, Charles Payne, Carl B. Julian, Ralph Ferusterrnacher and James 11. Makiu.
