Fourth precinct of the Sixth ward, a deputy sheriff. Clay Morris, negro, sheriff' in the Eighth precinct of the Sixth ward, who is one of the hangerson sound the “avenue” Joint of William Lan -aster. Sam Spalding, negro, sheriff in the Third precinct of the Fifth ward, an elevator operator at the city hall. Sam Cook, clerk in the Fourth precinct of the Fifth ward, who. it is said, has not been a resident of Indianapolis for ten years. Harry Schofield, judge in tbs Eighth precinct of the Sixth ward, who was indicted for election frauds in 1915 at the earnest solicitation of the Indianapolis News. One of the instances of failure to follow the recommendations of precinct committeemen wns made known when Joseph It. Morgan, Republican commit teninn in the Third precinct of the Seventh ward told the story of the selection of the board members in his district. TELLS STORY OF HOW WORK IS DONE. “I was a close friend of Thomas C. Howe at Butler College,” -aid Mr. Morgan. “We were fraternity brothers and sent mates. Before Mr. Howe got Into the campaign I promised my support to Edward J. Robison and of course have kept my word. Nevertheless. I have a warm spot In ,ny heart for Mr. Howe and I wanted to be sure that the board in iny precinct wns above reproach, so I consulted with several reputable leaders and finally recommended to the elty chairman Hearst H. Sargent, a wellknown attorney, for inspector: Edward -B. Pugh, another reputable attorney, for clerk: William H. Schrader for judge and Lucius Wilson for sheriff. “After I had made up this list. W. O Bangs, deputy county coroner and a Howe supporter, came to me and told me he wanted Harold ,T. Purvis, a city employe, put on ns sheriff so he could mark ballots for persons who asked for instructions in the booths. Knowing, of course, that the clerks are the sole officials legally entitled to assist voters in marking their ballots, I told Bangs I would not do anything of the kind. He. told me that he was to have this board to suit himself He did. In the list which the city chairman certified to the city election board Mr. Schrader is made inspector, Raiph Forbes, judge; Lloyd D. Ritchie, clerk, and Harold J. Purvis, sheriff. In some quarters It was reported that in stragetic precincts where the News Jewett organization desired to cover up their intentions, “dummy" members of boards were appointed. Politicians mean by “dummy" board members that men who are not intended to serve are appointed, then when they fail to appear on the moruing of the election the board is filled from whatever men may i>e handy, and, of course, the NewsJewett machine would not overlook the advantage of haviug some oue handy.

POLICE LA Y PLANS FOR ELECTION DA Y Chief Kinney Promises Protection to All Voters. Any attempt at “rough RtiifT’ around the polls at the primary elections Tuesday will be quickly taken care of by the police, according to Chief of Police Jerry Kinney who is today completing his plans for law enforcement on election day. “No voter who has a right to vote need fear that he will be interfer.-d with," the chief stated, “and the election laws will be enfofced as far as possible. The law states that the inspectors and election sheriffs have charge at the voting places and arrests for illegal voting will be made on their complaint and the police, of course, will act under their direction in making such arrests. However. if there should be a fight at any voting place or trouble of any kind, then the police will take immediate action and arrests will be made. “No voter will be molested. None need fear to go to the polls and vote. At least one police officer will be stationed at every voting place. In some precincts w'here it is rumored that there may be trouble two patrolmen will be stationed.” The chief of police also detailed plans to protect the voters and prevent trouble. Besides the motor police equipped with automobiles at the four regular substations, there will be six teams of motorcycle policemen equipped with motorcycles and sidecars, stationed at fire engine houses in various parts of the city. Twelve extra men will be held at police headquarters for emergencies besides the regular men on duty at headquarters. “Enforce the law,” will be the order given to all men, according to Chief Kinney. “Prevent all trouble and disorder at the various voting places.” Geist Entertains Indianapolis Men The Indianapolis delegates to the annnal meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of the T'nlted States were entertained at dinner at the Seaview Golf Club In Philadelphia last night by G.

U. S. AGENTS GET E. CHICAGO MEN Police Chief and Captain Are Facing Booze Law Charges. Three members of the city government of East Chicago, Edward P. O'Donnell, chief of police; Thomas Downey, captain of police, and Stanley Iteczkowski, aiderman, were arrested at East Chicago yesterday on grand Jury capiases charging them with conspiracy to violate the Federal prohibition laws. The arrests were made by Herman E. Sasse, deputy United States marshal at Hammond. Chief O’Donnell and Captain Downey are charged with conspiracy in the same cases. With the first two are indicted- Nick Vojnovieh, John Stifanovlch and Nick Popovich, all soft drink dealers in East ■Chicago. The case is almost identical with the Linton liquor cases tried last week, the police officials according to Federal offl'als, having accepted money from the soft drink dealers for protection given them for the sale of whisky. The practice is said to have been common in East Chicago. The following overt acts are charged against the defendants In. the indictments which were returned by the Federal grand jury on Monday: That about the first day of May, 1920, Stipanovieh paid SSO to O'Donnell and that in June, July, August and September of the same year he paid a like amount each mouth to Captain Downey. It is charged that Chief O'Donnel collected SSO from Popovich in May and June, 1920, and then raised the price to SIOO a month for July and August. • ’’nptain O'Donnell is also said to have collected SIOO from Vujnovieh in July, 1926. Alderman Stanley Iteczkowski is charged with conspiring with another person whose name has not been made public to violate the prohibition law. All defendants wore released on bond. Chief O’Donnell and Captain Downey under bond of $5,000 and the others under bond of $2,000. All Indicted officials are Republicans.

MACHINE CANT PULL TOGETHER FOR PROF. HOWE (Continued From Page One.) have been relying on Mayor Jewett to control tiie nominations in this primary and in his failure Mr. Jewett received little sympathy. Incidentally, the most of those business men who heard of his confession refused to “kick in” any money to back a forlorn hope. Another evidence of the realization of the collapse of the organisation has been the deaperate last minute effort to make it appear that all those citizens of In dianapolls who have the welfare of the city at heart are supporting Mr. Howe The attempt was made as a last resort. in spite of the fact that Caleb 8. Penny, who was the head of the "good government league" under which a similar plea was made four years ago, has taken the stump In favor of Edward J. Robison. FALSE CHARGE „ BARRAGE BUILT IP. Seldom, if ever in the history of In dianapolls. has a campaign been marked by tiie repetition of so many or so flagrant falsehoods as have been used to fight Mr. Robison and Mr. Shank. Robison, who entered tiie race in opposition to Shank first, is accused "f having entered It to defeat Mr. Howe, who was not even thought of ns a can did?te when Robison entered. Men like Mr. Denny and Charles A. Bookwalter, who have rallied to the support of Mr. Robison as the man best qualified for the position of mayor, have been accused of representing the "worst element" in the city and sn unscrupulous effort has been made to make It appear that all citizens who have not pledged their support of Mr. Howe are engaged In an attempt to "ruin Indianapolis." As was to he expected, there has been a reaction brought about by this effort to impugn the motives of men who will not accept the dictations of a newspaper whose ownership* Is still a matter of public debate, and it is n big question whether Mr. Howe’s candidacy has not been more harmed than benefited by close association with the Indianapolis News and Mayor Jewett's administration. Mayor Jewett realized this danger recently sufficiently to try to tell an audience that Mr. Howe was not responsible for his administration, but he made no impression for the reason that earlier in the campaign the candidate had giv on unrestricted indorsement to the Jewett regime. Among thp citizens to whom an appeal is made for the defeat of Shank as a “menace” the accompanying argument that "whoever is nominated by the Republicans will be elected" has fallen on unfertile grounds. MANY CONSIDER PRESENT KILE A GREAT "MENACE.” The majority of the members of the Republican party are exceedingly tired of the domination of the News Jewett organization. The regard it as the equal of any “menace” that can be conjectured in this primary, and they realize that in voting for Mr. Howe they are voting to maintain this machine, the menace of which they have felt in their private as well as their public life for years. Among the Republicans are hundreds who are beginning to realize thnt they are not only paying tribute politically but In a business and financial way to this mil chine which has heretofore deprived them of a right to express their preference at the polls and is today undertaking to place them outside the pale of decent citizenship merely because they are not willing to surrender their right to franchise to it. This class of citizens are not so obsess<sfl with the idea of mantaining a Republican administration of Indianapolis that they are willing to l>e driven by the News into the nomination of a candidate with whom they have nothing in common and who wns handpicked for them with the threat that they must accept Mm or be maligned ns undesirable citizens. The result of t)ils attempt on the part of the News Jewett machine to make It appear that the only decent citizens of Indianapolis are the supporters of Mr. Howe has been a tremendous increase in the strength of Edward J. Robison. Republicans realize that by supporting Robison they can retain their selfrespect, and at the same time administer a rebuke to the domineering bosses of the News-Jewett machine who are now attempting to coerce them into voting for Howe by declaring that all who are not for Howe are undesirable citizens of India napolis. ALL GOES TO BOLD

I P VOTE FOR ROBISON. This sentiment, together with reaentment of the baseless statements that Robison has no fallowing will combine to give Robison a vote that will confound the slanderers of bis campaign. Robison lias todny a brighter prospect of being the nominee than at any time since Howe was brought into the race to block him from defeating Shank. As the administration organization continues to disintegrate be becomes stronger and It Is increasingly evident that were It not for the presence of %ie News-Jewett. candidate ip the field higlsupport would overcome the personal following of Shank. Whenever the manages of any one of

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, APRIL 30, 1921.

A spires to Council HOWARD E. ROBERTSON. The improvement of the city market and the establishment of other markets in the various parts of the city are favored by Howard E. Robertson, candidate for the Democratic nomination for city councilman from the First district. Mr. Robertson also has declared for a program of slreet improvement. If Mr. Robertson is successful he will be the first resident of Irvington to be a member of the council since the Bookwalter administration.

the three campaigns speak frankly of the outcome they express grave doubts as to the success of their candidate. Shank is more feHrful that he will bo defrauded of the nomination than that he will be beaten. Robison Is fearful only that Ilowe-wil! cut the anti administration vote sufficiently to allow Shank the lead. Howe knows in his heart that he has no business In the race and the members of the organization that is conducting his campaign realize that they cannot deliver to him the support they fotind necessary to deliver to Jewett in his race against Shank four years ago. The puzzle to all three of the camps In the unpledged vote. Howe followers are fearful that it represent* th.ll part of the ele-torate that Is avoiding criticism or annoyance by declaring Itself for Shank. Robison supporter* are not sure that the client vote belongs to him and Shank supporters wonder if It a vote that has been forced reluctantly to line up with the organization. PREDICT 60,000 KEPI BLIt AN BALLOTS, It Is generally agreed that about 60,000 Republican ballots will be cast. Shank has pledge cards from 22,1k5) voters, if these voter* who have pledged theonselres to vote and work for him keep the pledge he will receive enough vote* to nominal * him. The question him then 1* whether or not these vote* will he counted. Everywhere it Is now conceded that the Shank campaign his not collapsed, that the Robison campaign has not been smothered and that the Howe campaign has no tattracted the support that was expected. Out if this peculiar situation comes the realization, too late, that Robison alone undoubtedly could have defeated Shank, hlw that liowe, alone, never could have won against 1 itu. For the anti-Shank element Is ulsu an nnll-Jewett element that Is not strong for Mr. liowe and unless this element is ready to accept tha dictation of the News Jewett machine and smother Its natural inclination to vote for Robison as a protest against both the News Jewett machine and the Shank campaign Mr. Howe cannot be nominated. 31 YEARS In city , BUT NOT IN CLUB Thirty one years a resident of Indianapolis, thirty-one days t member of the Marion Club is the record of Mr Thomas Carr Howe, former president of Butler College and News Jewett candidate for the Republican mayoralty nomination, according to Edwin B. Pugh, manager of the Robison speaking bureau in a speech made last night at Twenty Fifth street and Central avenue. Speaking of the Howe candidacy Mr Pugh said: “It seems to me mighty poor grace for a man to ask to he placed at the head of a party ticket as the partisan candidate on the Republican ticket when he hitnself has voted for about as many Democrats ns Republicans. Professor liowe lias lived in Indianapolis thirty one years, he has been a member of the Marlon Club Just thirty-one days. Ilis supporters have been telling the people of Indianapolis to 'get right with Howe.’ It looks very much as If Professor Howe is trying to get right with the Republican party.”

and used the Sanative Wash, and hav* never felt better than 1 have the last two years. I can work, eat, sleep, and feel as strong as can be. Doctors told me I could never have children— I was too weak—but after taking Vegetable Compound it strengthened me so I gave birth to an eight pound boy. I was well all the time, did all my work up to the last day, and had a natural birth. Everybody who knew me was surprised, and when they ask me what made me strong I tell them Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Use this testimonial at any time. ’’—Mrs. Elizabeth Smart, 142 W. Sixth St., Lowell, Mass. This experience of Mrs. Smart is surely a strong recommendation for Lydia E.
