Consequently the league will receive more attention as he goes along. Both in DesMolnes and In Omaha the Democratic newspapers have published questionnaires on the league Issue, addressed to Senator Harding with requests that he answer them. An Omaha newspaper, owned by Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock, who managed the President’s fight In the Senate for the league, published a series of questions to the Republican candidate.

MANY DEMAND LINKENFELTER INVESTIGATION —t —-■ ■ ■ (Continued From Face One.) at 9:30 o'clock this morning as a witness before the grand Jury. FOLICE OFFICIALS AMAZED AT ACTION. “What, you don’t mean to tell me that Roy Llnkenfelter has been freed by the grand jury!” exclaimed Inspector of Detectives Herbert Fletcher. “If that man la freed he ought to be turned loose tn an alley with a shotgun behind him,” declared the chief of detectives aa he recalled the Little girls that identified Linkenfeltcr. Gapt. Fred Simon of the detective department was present when the Information as to how Llnkenfelter got out of trouble was announced. “That's a shame,” declared Captain Simon. “At least seven girls Identified bim and I know him, for Detective Itadamacher aud myself arrested him. "That was about six years ago and he was charged vnt hbavlng assaulted a little school girl at that time.” "Linkenfelter at tie time of his recent atrest salt} that tho case was Axed In the grand jury, Cap’aln,” suggested a reporter. "Oh, no It was not,” exclaimed the officer. "That man was convicted In Criminal Court and sentenced to prison, but the prison sentence was suspended when he promised to go to Florida and stay. “When 1 saw him after his arrest a tew weeks ago I asxed him if he ever, went to Florida ans. he said he eftd, but came back to Indianapolis after a brief stay In the South." Since the publication of the facts concerning the release of Linkenfelter, the Times has received several communications conerning the case. Following is one of them; Editor the Times —“I have Just read your article in the last home edition of the Times and I wish to say to you and to the persn who wrote that article ffhat I am' glad that there la In this city a paper that has the nerve to come out with the facts about so disgraceful a case as that of Rey Linkenfelter, 1199 North Jefferson avenue. "It strikes me that there is something wrong and mighty wrong at that when a man can get by with such ‘carryings on.’ "Let some poor hungry man come along and steal a loaf of bread out of a bread box for his baby and he would serve time out on the farm, where a few of our ‘Av-noo’ friends ought to be If It wasn’t for the fact that_ some of our higherups would fall through a barrel of pretzels If they were to sit down on them. “Lack of evidence! "Listen, if nine little girls is not evidence enough, why. doesn’t someone take a camera and go out and photograph this fellow at his loathsome Job? “I have watched this case with Interest for some months, hoping that the law would put this fellow where he belonged, but the outlook is not the best. Keep up the good work.” A READER.
