Fall, central figure in the biggest scandal since the Ballinger - Pinchot case, was still ill at the home of J. W. Zevely, Harry F.

INDIANAPOLIS, SATURDAY, JAN. 26, 1924
Richmond, according to the reports, has seven women In jail and two at the poor farm. It has the highest number of any place reporting. The sheriff reported that the shortest length of time an insane person had been held in the Wayne County jail was three months. Mrs. Chapman said that the epileptic woman was accorded the l>est treatment possible in the wing pf the jail known as the Home for Friendless Women, but it is manifestly impossible to give the special medical treatment needed. Allen County Report In Allen County an insane person has been held in jail for two years. Time insane persons are confined to jail there and twenty-two in the poor farm. One liaa been in the poor farm thirty-one years. Elkhart County reported only one insane person in jail and reported he had been there only two days. La Forte County reported six in Jail and three in the poor farm, one having been held in jail for four months. Other counties reporting Insane persons in jail and poor farms: Floyd, one in jail; Franklin, one in poor farm: Hancock, one in jail for five months; Huntington, one in jail: Marshall. one In jail: Miami, one In jail; Pike, one in Jail; Perry, three iiujwor farm, Pulaskf, one In poor farm; Phelby, four in poor farm; St. Joseph, four In jail and three In poor farm; Tippecanoe, five in jail and thirty one in poor farm; Vermillion, one In jail and five in poor farm.
One Man In Jail Hem Marion County, when the report was made, had five in jail and twelve at the poor farm. There is now only one in jail in Marion County. Sheriffs were almost unanimous in their opinions that something must be done to relieve this situation. “I Just got a man in the hospital whom I had in jail for seventy-seven clays,” Sheriff William F. Mummert, Carroll County, said "I think we surely need more room for Insane persons in the Central Hospital.” I\ e have held insane persons in our county jail for over a year at a time,” Sheriff Ei nest Bradway of Henry County said. “We need a suitable place to accommodate the unfortunate. There Is lots of money spent for other causes which we think could be reduced.” William Perry, sherilT of Johnson County, suggested accommodations be provided at the county poor farm. Much Attention Needed “The greater number need attention at all times, and that is impossible for the sheriff,” he said. She iff E. A. Hemphill, Perry County, was positive in his statements. "I believe insane people should be sent to State institutions where they are prepared to care, for them,” he said. "1 believe that the Bta‘e should spend more money for taking care of the Insane and less money for building palaces for convicts.” "I have had insane here that needed immediate attention, who were held three or four weeks without treatment,’’ Sheriff Jesse G. Smith, Shelby County, said, “I have been in office on? year and have had seven insane people; one died in the fail, another (lied a few days after he was taken away.” “We have no convenience for insane patients as we have no separate place for them they have to be confined with other prisoners," the sheriff of Tippecanoe County reported.

That Is if the allegations she sets forth In her divorce petition are true. The first plaintiff in such a suit, insofar as the records reveal, is a pretty young Minneapolis woman. Mrs. Cora May White. was well in the White household until hubby bought his radio. But after that Gerald White paid far more attention to his receiving set than he did to her, his spouse charges. Here are just a few of the things her petition says about him: “He swore violently when local stations interfered with his tuning in on distant stations.
