GENERAL ACTION EXPECTED WITH SHANKON DECK Mayor Declares Against Klan in Bid for Governor’s Job, With the entrance of Mayor Shank into the governorship race, active campaigning in Indiana preliminary to the primary, still six months distant, Is expected to get under way.. Shank is the third to announce his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Governor. Mayor Ora Davis, Terre Haute, was the first and Edward C. Toner, Anderson, was the second. Shank, In his opening statement, made the Ku-Klux Klan an issue. He frankly declared he is setting out to find out how many Klanemen there are In Indiana and to “skin” Ed Jackson, secretary of State, who is looked upon as friendly to the Klan. Jack son has been frequently mentioned as a candidate, but he has made no formal announcement. Mayor Shank's platform Is typical of previous Shank utterances. He dei dared for law enforcement, for home rule fop municipalities, for curtailment of the exercise of the pardoning power, for the reduction of public utility rates, for lower taxes, for a stronger “blue sky” law, for the economic construction of highways and agaipst the Klan. In all but his expression against the Klan, Shank's platform differs very little from that enunciated by Toner. The latter did not mention the Klan. Shank’s announcement, anticipated for some time, was made at a dinner for city officials and employes given by Charles E. Coffin, president of the board of works, at the Columbia C’.ub Saturday night. No Administration Candidates The mayor, among other things, declared that he could not run on the record of the present Republican administration. In this he does not differ from other candidates, and he called attention to a situation that is making the present campaign peculiar Republican candidates generally feel free to announce their own principles without regard to what has gone be ! fore. The fact that there will be. and under the circumstances that- there can be no administration candidate, will add to the free-for-all aspect of the contest. Already there is talk of the possibility of the Republican nomniation being thrown Into the convention. The Indiana law provides that a candidate for Governor to be nominated in the primary must receive a majority of all the votes cast by his party in the primary. Otherwise the nomination Is made by the convention. With this in mind, candidates probably will give particular attention to the election of delegates to the convention Democratic Possibilities Activity, in the Republican ranks | may have a tendency to smoke out j the Democrats who have been eni deavoring to postpone their campaign ;as long as possible. While he has | not made an announcement, Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch, Indianapolis, Is an avowed candidate for the Democratic nomination and is said to have the support of Thomas Taggart. William 11. O'Brien of Lawrenceburg has been in a receptive mood, and Dale J. Crittenberger, Anderson, has been active in soliciting the support of his friends in his own behajf. Joseph M. Cravens, Madison, State Senator, also has been mentioned. CONVICT IS RECAPTURED Sing Sing Prisoner Suffered While Hiding Under Death-house By United Prdss OSSINING, N.

MONDAY, OCT. 29,1923
A song, to be a permanent favorite, gay music directors and critics, must possess some peculiar merit. It may be the beauty or the sentiment of the poetry, such as in some of our patriotic hymns and songs of home. It may be the sheer beauty of the music itself, or it may be the adaptability of the song to impromptu “close harmony” singing. “Goodnight, Ladies,” a great favorite a generation* ago and equally as popular today, is an example of the last type. America’s Favorite The establishing of America’s favorite song is the task of the Committee on People’s Songs, which made Its first annual report through its chairman, Prof. Peter W. Dykema of the University of Wisconsin, at the National Recreation Congress in Springfield, 111., Oct. 11. It was at last year’s congress that the committee was formed, its purpose being to discover, inspire and foster worthy songs which reflect the Ufa and ideals of the American people. The committee has been endeavoring to search out through a widespread expression of public opinion the best existing songs suitable for community singing. It sent out a questionnaire to more than fifty active community song leaders throughout the country, asking them which they considered to be the best songs of American origin now being used in community .singing. List Compiled The results of the questionnaire were tabulated and made public by the secretary. Kenneth S. Clark, at the music supervisors’ national conference at Cleveland, Ohio. The resultant list was voted upon in turn by the .committee members, who added other songs of their own choosing. Through this process the committee’s own approved list of songs was compiled. But It is also a part of the committee’s plan to take a referendum to the people. It has arranged with The Indianapolis Times to conduct a contest. The Tfmes--will publish the approved list of songs for balloting. The individual will be free to vote for one or more of those listed or add to the ballot any additional favorites of his own. Twenty songs were selected as the first group upon which attention will be focused for the coming year. Prof. Dykeman, In his speech at Springfield, asked: “How many of these songs qan you sing with the text before you, and how many—a woefully small number, I fear—can you sing from memory?” KLAN PERSECUTION, WALTON DEFENSE
