Elder, was a caller at the Federal 'building yesterday and spent some time visiting with Frederick Van Nuys, United States district attorney. Mr. Thurman said his trip to Indianapolis had no political significance. Although his appointment has been announced, it will not become effective until it has been confirmed by the United States Senate, which will convene in special session next Monday. Mr. Elder handed in his resignation several months ago and is anxious to get out of the service, but he has been held in the position until a successor could be selected and officially named. "I have been told by persons connected with the internal revenue office,” Mr. Thurman said today, “that under Mr. Elder the Indianapolis office has been one of the best conducted in the country. He certainly has made a fine record and it will be my ambition to do Just as well as he has done.” IN THE LAND OF MAKE BELIEVE Continued From Pace Six) will be glad to answer all questions concerning the players of either company, personal ideas of the players and any information desired concerning the plays to be presented.
