Dunbar of New Albany had accepted the position as vice president and general manager of the Citizens Gas Company of Indianapolis, speculation has begun in political circles as to probable candidates to succeed Mr. Dunbar as Congressman from the Third Indiana district. The withdrawal of Mr. Dunbar is the first break in the Congressional ranks in Indiana for the coming primary, as for some time It had been thought the entire Republican delegation as it now stands would enter the field this fall. Mr. Dunbar's acceptance of the local position, however, Insures he will not try to succeed himself and the field has been opened. In Republican circles many names ore being brought forward at this time, prominent among them being William Waldscbmidt of Tell City, a lawyer and active Republican worker. Friends of Mr. Waldscbmidt say he will make a strong candidate and they believe he will enter the race.

George H. Hester of New Albany also was mentioned by those in touch with the situation in the Third district. Mr. Hester made the race against former Representative Lige Cox and was defeated by only 400 votes. Former Lieutenant Governor Edgar D. Bush cf Salem also Is being strongly urged to make the race. When Mr. Bush withdrew from the governatorial race two years ago he was mentioned for congressional honors. Samuel Lambdin of English and State Senator Frank Self of Corydon both are being mentioned by their friends as probable candidates. In Democratic circles, only two names are prominently discussed as candidates to succeed Mr. Dunbar, these being John Ewing of New Albany and Lew W. O’Baunon of Corydon. Mr. Ewing was the Democratic nominee against Mr. Dunbar two years ago and his friends says he probably will be In the Democratic listß again this time. Mr. O’Bannon is editor of a Democratic newspaper at Corydon and at the meeting of Democratic editors of In. dlana held here this week was se+ected as executive committeeman for the Third congressional district. NATIONAL ROAD TO TERRE HAUTE OUT OF REPAIR Hoosier Motor Club Advises Travel fcy Ocean-to-Ocean Highway. After having been in a sort of a passable condition through from Indianapolis to Terre Haute, the National Old Trails Highway Is again “all shot” according to Information given out by the Hoosier Motor Club. Travelers are notified that they will he very much out of luck if they attempt to get through on a bee-line route because of road conditions In some places and bridge work in others. Between local points conditions are not so bad. “The construction of a bridge east of Plainfield puts out of commission a section of the National Road that up to recently has been quite good.” the motor club states. “Through traffic between Indianapolis and Terre Haute should go via the Ocean-to-Ocean Highway, known locally as the Rockville Road. This road is hard surfaced in Marion County, starting from West Washington street at the Eagle Creek brige, and is In good condition through Danville and Rockville. Traffic is being sent by the motor club to Montezuma, west of Rockville, thence south on State road No. 10, known as the Dixie Bee-Line, through Clinton and to Terre Haute. This highway is reported to be in very good condition for travel, also.” The National road from Terre Haute to St. Louis, a distance of 173 miles. Is a hard surface roadway the entire distance and is open to traffic, it is stated and it is pointed out that Illinois has pulled itself out of the mud in quick time and thrown a concrete road entirely across State, whereas, the Indiana section •f the National highway still lacks more than fifty miles of being completed. There are no detours on the National road east to Richmond at this time, the motor club states, although there is a temporary bridge at Lewisville. There are forty-one miles of concrete between Indianapolis and the eastern Indiana State line. Other main highways out of Indianapolis are in good traveling condition with few, if any, detours, it is declared. “Some of the State maintained gravel roadß are now in as fine traveling condition hs they were last summer,” declares tile club, and It is added that such conditions in winter are considered excellent tributes to the value of road maintenance. FUED CLAIMS 14TH VICTIM Chicago’s ‘Bloody Nineteenth Ward’ Scene of Slaying. CHICAGO, Feb. 18.—The political feud in Chicago’s bloody Nineteenth ward claimed its fourteenth victim today. Tony Pascoallo, organized for a political faction, was found dead near an alley with his throat cut and a bullet wound in his heart. A razor was by his side. An unidentified man was shot and killed by Police Sergt. Edgar D. Cowing, who discovered the man attempting to break into his home. The only mark of identification found about the map was the label of a Milwaukee srm on his clothes.

EX-PRESIDENT WOULD HURRY RATIFICATION Wilson Advises Followers to Approve, Rather Than Oppose, Treaties. COX TO BE MUZZLED Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Publio Ledger. By ROBERT BARRY. WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.—Tho Underwood plan to have Democratic Senators assist in expeditious ratification of the Hardlng-Hughes conference treaties to fight the forthcoming congressional elections on domestic issues is said to have the approval of former President Wilson. Friends of the former President have brought to the capitol word that after a careful Btudy of the conference treaties, Mr. Wilson believed It highly advisable for his party to give approval to them instead of opposing them because they did not go as far in the processes of peace as he believed the League of Nations did. SMOOTH SAILING FOR TREATY. If the wishes of Mr. Wilson and Mr. Underwood can be translated into affirmative action by the minority members of the Senate, It is certain the treaties will have smooth sailing in the senate. It is likely also that efforts will be made to muzzle James M. Cox of Ohio, whose Jackson day address at Dayton created some dismay among Democratic managers who want “to scrap ’ international discussions on which the Republicans stand in solid phalanx—in order to wage battle against them next autumn on domestic issues—on which the majority party is divided Into factions and "blocs.” President Harding win send to the Senate on Monday, his reply to the Hitchcock resolution calling for such documents, minutes, etc., as are available bearing on the negotiations which led to the Four-Power Pacific pact. That statement. It was said at the Whit* House, would be based In large measure on what Secretary Hughes says in reply to a radio inquiry sent to his ship. The President advised Senator Lodge that everything posible wyuld be done by the Administration t-> aid the Senate’s consideration of the treaty program. DISCUSS FURTHER RESERVATIONS. Discussion of the treaties by the Committee on Foreign Relations has developed a disposition for further reservations to the four-power pact. Attention was called to a provision in the fivepower naval treaty for termination of the whole agreement in the event of its being denounced by any one of the signatories, and the absence of such a provision in the four-nower pact. Senator Brandegee of Connecticut was said to be preparing such a reservation. Senator Johnson of California raised questions bearing on the fortifications sections of the Dari treaty, and stated objections to what be awarded as provisions unfavorable to .be United States with respect to fo-tifieationa and bases south of the equator. He was said to have made special reference to Singapore, which figured prominently in the conference discussions. HARDING REASONABLE. President Harding indicated at the White House late this afternoon that, although he saw no necessity for reservations to the treaties, ho was not prepared to stand on any "ratification without the dotting of an “l” or the crossing of a “t” program such as was attributed to President Wilson in the I.eag-ue of Nations fight. Mr. Harding was shown to be ready to meet any reasonable reqnest by the Senate for clarification of the treaties so that the actual consrtucohU of oil tlmufl hfl In hur-

SIMMERINGS from THE POLITICAL POT

By HAROLD C. FEIGHTNER. The week Juat ending has been replete with political activities of much importance that all thoughts of a quiet and uneventful primary have been laid aside and once more Indiana politicians are girding themselves for a bitter struggle. The events which have set the people talking, which have filled the editorial columns and which have caused the socalled leaders to start buzzing in circles are, briefly summarized, these: 1. The formal entry of Albert J. Beveridge, formerly United States Senator, into the race for the Republican Domination against Senator S. New. 2. The declination "of Samuel M. Ralston, formerly Governor of Indiana, to seek the Democratic senatorial nomination. 3 The Democratic editorial banquet, which revealed a whole woods full of congressional and State candidates and which, according to leaders, pnt the party on a better fighting basis than it has been for years. Mr. Beveridge entered the lists at a well-staged “coming out party” at his home on Washington boulevard here Thursday afternoon, but, much to the disappointment trf many of his followers and to the discomfiture of bis opponents, he failed to elucidate hi* platform. Master strategist and publicist that he is, the former Senator delayed that important part of his campaign until the eyes of the State are again sufficiently focused upon him to make the formal announcement of his platform principles an event of unusual news Importance. Mr. Beveridge reasoned, and not without foundation, that his acceptance of the invitation to become a candidate would give him ample front page space for a day and that he could repeat to good advantage when he delivers his platform message. While the Beveridge party could In no way be compared to a great popular demonstration, it was weii representative of Indiana and it was said practically every county had an emissary present, who, on returning to his home, will become the nucleus of the organization the former Senator hopes to have In the field before primary day. May 2. Despite the apparently sincere appeals of the Beveridge leaders for a clean cut campaign in which personalities are forgotten, the preliminary maneuvering of both the Beveridge and New camps indicates the contest is going to be far removed from a Sunday school debate and there is every likelihood, before long the leaders, if not the principals themselves, will te calling each other by their right names. Foremost in carrying the offensive to the enemy has been Mayor fumed Lewis Shank of Indianapolis, who was one of the first officials to leap on the Beveridge band wagon. Mayor S*ank never was of the "kid glove” type of speaker, and he had no more than taken the stump when he began to to Senator New as “Mayflower New,” a -witticism upon the Senator’s frequent week-end trips down tho Potomac with President Harding on the Presidential yacht Mat-flow r, and “Newberry New.” a thrust at tlie Senator’s vote in seating the Michigan Senator. Charles A. Bookwniter, former mayor of Indianapolis and an ardent Shank worker during- the mayoralty campaign here, took up the cudgel for Senator New atitf 1 retaliated with a viciousness that indicates the trend of the factional strife.

The mid-winter meeting of the Marion County Federation of Young People's Societies will be held Monday evening at Roberts Park M. E. Church. Dc. John W. Hoag, pastor of the Woodward Avenue Baptist Church of Detroit, will deliver the principal address. A city-wide canvags of the Christian Endeavor societies is under way and will he completed Sunday by special committees working under the direction of the officers of the Indianapolis City Christian Endeavor Union. It is expected that the local Endeavorers will attend in large numbers and contest for the banner to be awarded at the meeting for the organization having the largest number present. The Young People's Federation is composed of members of the forty-five Chriatlon Endeavor societies, twenty eight Epworth Leagues and thirty-one Baptist Young People's Unions In Marion County. Ray .T. Wells of the Baptist Young People's Union will preside and Dr. Frederick F, Taylor, pastor of the First Baptist Church, will Introduce Dr. Hoag. Members of the three participating young people’s organizations will be admitted by means of tickets before the doors are opened to the general public at 7:30 p. m. The ticket* will be distributed at the various society meetings Sunday evening.

i Incidentally, Mr. Bookwalter disclofted I publicly what rumor has said would be : the principal theme of the Beveridge opposition—that he is too radical and too progressive to fit in well with the surroundings in Washington. I “We should see more Republicans in the United States Senate and fewer individuals,” said Mr. Bookwalter at a meeting here Wednesday, which was called hurriedly in order to take the edge ; off of tho Beveridge coming out party the : next day. “We need men who will place j party above self. ludiana wants no i Borah nor La Follette in the Senate." i Tho Beveridge people already are feelj ing the pinch of the new organization 1 which has been put in the field and ! which is functioning. They charge the \ Senator through Administration support ! in Washington has hold up practically ; all of tho postoffice appointments in Indiana until he is assured, or has actual evidence, that the job-seekers will work ; for his renomination. ! The New forces, on the other hand, | charge the Beveridge people are endeavor- ! lug to bolstek up their organization by uniting with popular candidates for district and county offices. | And so it goes. ! Democrats were taken aback, to say ■ the least, when Mr. Ralston, in a few i words, announced he would not become i a senatorial aspirant. There had been l a ground swell in the former Goverj nor’s direction for several weeks, and, | while it had not assumed the proportions iof a popular “uprising” In his behalf, (there was every indication his canj tlidacy would be acceptable, not alone j to the leaders, but to the party mass as j well. | Mr. Ralston 1b undoubtedly sincere in (his refusal to become a candidate, but j certain observers believe after the work- | ers turn to Thomas Taggart in the vain : hope he again will seek the toga and meet the rebuff it Is known he will extend, they will bring unrelenting pressure upon the former Governor. Whether he will recede from his determination not to run remains to be seen, but there are a lot of Democrats who believe he will respond to a popular clamor. The editorial banquet developed scores of booklets, and someone remarked there i were few at the banquet who would not be willing to “save the party” if necessary. Claude G. Bowers of Ft. Wayne, who has been mentioned in connection with the senatorial nomination, got a distinct edge on the field by a fiery, impassioned oration that swept his hearers off of their feet repeatedly. ** There is a feeling if the old war horses, Mr. Taggart or Mr. Ralston, cannot be prevailed upon to enter the lists, a young man must be groomed for the place. In this connection Walter Myers, an attorney of Indianapolis, is mentioned frequently. Mr. Myers is an orator of ability and has taken a leading part in American Legion affairs, both State and | national. | Although Bernard B. Shively of Mar- ' ion, formerly Progressive candidate for Congress in the Eleventh district, is an announced candidate' for the senatorial nomination, few of the leaders are taking j him seriously. Shively, however, with his customary activity is putting an organization In the field and promises to be a man with whom the other candidates must reckon.

BELIEVES AUTO PRICES WILL GO UP AGAIN SOON Hea<L of Trade Association Predicts. Lively Market in Spring, BIG EXHIBIT MARCH Is Pointing out that the public is now pretty thoroughly convinced that automobile prices, especially of the more popular cars, are at their lowest levels, and citing this as a reason for the firm belief In a lively spring market, Homer C. Lathrop, president of the Indianapolis Automobile Trade Association, today declared his earlier forecasts of rising' prices is already being substantiated. "Just this week in the local papers there have appeared advertisements of increased prices in the automobile line,” he stated. "This increase was on a certain car scarcely out of the {topular price class, but bears out what I have said heretofore that automobile prices are almost certain to go higher as spring production costs become settled. Many of the reductions made the last few weeks have been done with the hear* and tmt with the head or with the aid of the cost accountant. The pendulum does not remain still. It is now at its lowest swoop, and I believe that is one reason why the State auto show to be held here, the week of March 6 will dra-W bigger crowds than ever before and from all over the State. This show will be the big opportunity for seeing the 1922 models all dressed up in their lowest price tags.” Mr. Lathrop also declares that dealers from all over the State are cooperating with the show management as never before. It is pointed out that the ontState dealers realize Indianapolis has the only real facilities In the State to properly house and display the new models of motor vehicles and that they are getting their friends interested in tho matter of visiting tho exhibition. "There is every indication that buyer Interest will be keener this spVlng than for many years,” declares John Orman, show manager, “I believe this fact was largely responsible for the rush of exhibitors for space nt the spring show. Our annual space allotment lottery this week was a merry scramble for show space and many late comers failed to land at all. Our space was all taken In much quicker time this year than ever and it seems like every exhibitor has a deep seated hunch they are going to wallop tho gears from low to. high and go right on from here. There Is Just that much optimism in Indiana automobile circles. Knowing this to be the case, I certainly hope to spread the glad tidings of great joy throughout Hooslerdom. The auto show's slogan just tells it: ‘We're out of the ruts! Step on the gas!’” In addition to attractions already announced. such ns the Canadian Kilties band in their Scotch regimentals, Manager Orman announces that Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, the famous American aviator, and designer of an automobile bearing his name, has definitely pledged his attendance at the State show on Monday the opening night.

CHILDREN HAVE NARROW ESCAPE Four Lowered From Window When Home Burns. An over-heated furnace started a fire at the home of Joseph Barton, 182S South Randolph street, at 12:50 a. m. today that drove the family Into the street. The damage done by the flames was estimated by {he firemen at $750. Mr*. Barton turned in an alarm while her husband hurried to the second floor of the building to recue four sleeping children. The fire gained much headway and shut off the chance of escape by way of the stairs. Bartou awakened bis own children. Josephine, 9; Athenla, IS; Charles, 0, and a visiting girl. Catherine Kiwathkowski, 14, and they climbed through a window to the roof of tho porch. Barton used a sheet as a rope and lowered the children down to his wife who was waiting below. William Polligau, city fireman from Company No. 15, slipped and fell on the stairs as he was entering the building. He suffered injuries that caused him to be taken to hU homo by Battalion Chief Johnson. RIFLE TEAMS WILL COMPETE Fifty Five-Man Groups to Meet at Culver Academy. Special to The Times. CULVER, Ind., Feb. 18.—About fifty five-man rifle teams are expected to take part in the annual Indoor rifle and pistol competition which wilt be held at Culver Military Academy March 20 under the auspices of the Indiana National Guard and the Indiana State Rifle Association. The matches will be fired in the academy's large gallery. Lieut. Col. Basil Middleton, instructor of target practice at Culver and a member of the State adjutant general's State board for the promotion of rifle practice, has announced the guard probably will be represented by at least twenty teams and probably thirty civilian rifle clubs will send competing marksmen. The visiting marksmen will be quartered in one of the academy buildings and will be entertained at a smoker, concert, boxing and swimming exhibitions, and a review of the Culver cadet corps. LENIN IS ILL, SAYS MESSAGE Report Soviet Leader Will Resign Control Denied. LONDON, Feb. 18.—Nicolai Lenin is ill and is understood to be suffering from cystitis, according to information received from Moscow by members of the soviet Russian trade mission today It was regarded as likely Lenin’s physical condition might have had something to do with his decision not to attend the Genoa economic conference. A report Lenin had relinquished control Russian administrative affairs at Moscow was denied by the bolshevtst trade mission. Members of the mission said Lenin had departed from Moscow temporarily and was living in the country, but was in touch with members of tlje central soviet daily. Rush Painting Is Shown at Library Anew loan to the Indianapolis public library from the John Herron Art Institute is the picture "On a Balcony,” painted by Miss Olive Kush, sister of Charles E. Rush, city librarian. This portrait of a Normandy peasant mother and child, was painted by Miss Kush just before the war on her last trip abroad and is a fuvorite with art critics. It was acquired by the art institute In 1919. It will be shown at the central library delivery room for one month.

Police Arrest Two Following Fight Chairs turned over, curtains torn from the windows, salt and pepper boxes on the floor, dishes scattered over the floor in the dining-room of the house at 332 North Davidson street told of the tattle that had occurred there before the police arrived. Motor Policemen Moriarlty and Leonard viewed the wreck and then questioned Hazel Major, 29, whom they found with a deep cut on her face dressed by a physician. She said she was the housekeeper for Leo Gerber, 37, at the Davidson street address. She sa'd that they quarreled. Gerber had dioappeared, but the Major woman said she knew where to find him and she showed the police. Then the police arrested both the Major woman and Gerber on the charge of assault and hattery. VIEWS VARY ON REPORT FRANCE CAN NOT PAY U.S. Senators Divided in Sentiment Over Statement of Loucheur. LOANS IN GOOD FAIfH WASHINGTON, Feb. 18—Sentiment was divided in the Senate today regarding the flat statement that France can never pay her war debt to the United States, which was made at Paris by Louis Loucheur, former minister of th# French devastated regions, and now a member of the French Chamber of Deputies. The suggestion by Loucheur that France might liquidate her debt by an exchange of French and American goods was considered significant iri view of the fact that he was largely instrumental in arranging the Weisbaden agreement for a similar exchange between France and Germany. KEPT FROM 4 RMS PARLEY BY BRIAND’M DOWNFALL. Considerable weight is attached to Loucheur s utte. a rices, in view of the important posit! jr he occupies In European affairs as a financier and economist of the first rank. It was expected that he would atten 1 the recent armament conference, but Briand's downfall “Is said to have prevented Loucheur from coming here to urge that the American Government participate in an international economic <xfnierenee. l.oucheur's statement that France "cannot pay now, connot ever pay,” waa received by Senators with manifest interest. Senator McCormick. Republican of Illinois, member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, who recently charged that France!* inability to pay waa due to a badly balanced budget resulting from her maintenance of a Large standing army, said: “Loncheur’s statement is tho first official announcement that the French republic does not contemplate paying its debt to the Uni ten States. INTEREST PAYMENT OF IM M EDI ATE COMM KN. “The loans made to Euroitean governments by the United States were made in good faith and when they were made no Russian or other conditions were at tached to their payment. The paymeut of the Interest due from the several European states Is of more Immediate moment to the taxpayers of this country than the ultimate paymeut of the capital sum of the debt" Senator King <Dem.), Utah, member of the Senate Naval Affairs Committee, said: “The statement of Loucheur concerning the financial condition of France and her Inability to pay her obligations Is, in my opinion substantially correct. France's people are being taxed heavily. Her manufacturing section was destroyed by the war and she has been compelled to advance more than fifty billion francs for pensions and the reconstruction of her devastated regions. Billions more will have to be raised in taxes or loans for her to meet the expenses she Incurred by the war. In this situation it is manifestly Impossible for France to meet her current obligations for many yoara to come.” INTEREST J§ FOR Booty. df SECURITIES XfBANK BUM*; Xj&w INDIANAPOLIS fw

TOM SKEYHILL, POET-SOLDIER, HERE SUNDAY Famous Orator to Speak on ‘The Babylonian Finger Writes Again.’ Tom Skeyhill. poet-soldier, orator and adventurer, will be the speaker at the Big Meeting at Theater Sunday afternoon. His subject will be “The . Babylonian Finger Writes Again.” This is the same speaker who, three years ago, when only 22 years old, thrilled an audience of 2,800 men from the came platform with his vivid description of the Battle of the Dardanelles, j When only 18 years old, Skeyhlll was known as the “Australian Poet.” He en- I listed in the Australian expeditionary 1 forces y and took part in the famous Dardanelles campaign. In the great bat- j tie which took place there, a ba’yonet i thrust and an exploding shell destroyed j his eyesight. He was told by four different specialists that his vision was lost forever. Nothing daunted, he started to help win the war by his power ot oratory. At the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City he raised for the fifth Liberty loan $23.000,‘W0 In twenty-three minutes. At that time Ex-President Roosevelt said of him: “I am prouder to be on the stage with Tom Skeyhlll than any other man I know.” Soon after this an American specialist succeeded In restoring his eyesight, after he had spent two years in total dark- J ness. Last year Skeyhill decided to go to 1 Russia and study conditions there. Just before going he said, “I will get the Information I go after in some way. Just how I cannot say. If necessary I shall join the Russian army and fight side by side with the Russian soldiers. I will visit the leading cities t*ud political and psychological centers, I will bring back something which the world will be eager to hear. I realize that I am playing for big stakes, but I have diced with death oefore and won the toss.” With forged pass ports and an as- j sumed character he entered Russia by the “Underground Route.” He accomplished his mission and his message “The Babylonian Finger Write* Again” is an exposition of present-day Russian conditions. The special music for tomorrow will be furnished by Ml*s Ella B. Schroeder, violin soloist. She will play “Valse Triste,” by Sibelius, and “Serenade,” by Stlvakowsky. The Big Meeting orchestra will give a thirty minute's concert when , the doors open at 3 o'clock.
