PROSECUTION OF CLINE URGED BY COUNCILMGER $40,000 Should Be Repaid, Declares Ray—Johnson Is Successor, The city council’s probe of alleged irregularities in the city administration will continue until every effort to prosecute Fred Cline, member of the park board, who resigned Monday, has been exhausted, it was indicated today. Cline resigned when the council, charging he sold filling station sites on boulevards by using his position on the park board to advance personal interests, demanded it of Mayor Shank. A few hours later Shank announced the appointment of Emsley YV. Johnson, attorney, to succeed Cline. Johnson, a Republican, formerly was county attorney and is a trustee of Butler University. He has been active in county politics. He takes office immediately. §40,000 Recovery Attempted Recovery of approximately $40,000 alleged to have been obtained in real estate deals in connection with acquisition of land for parks near the Riley Memorial Hospital will be attempted if the council's attorneys hold steps legal, it was decided at the council meeting Monday night. “The poor people of the city donated to the Riley Memorial Hospital,” said Councilman Otto Ray, who instigated the park board investigation leading to Clines resignation. When I started this probe I started in good faith. We were offered bribes and threatened during the days of our sessions. The council now has turned over evidence on which the prosecutor can proceed in the legal way.” “I think the evidence submitted is so thorough that Cline should reimburse the city $40,000 out of his own pocket,” continued Ray. Through Own Efforts “No city money was involved in any of my transactions, and I bought the land for filling stations and sold them through my own efforts,” said Cline in his written statement to Mayor Shank following his resignation. Cline said he would oppose charges of the council if it would not embarrass the Shank administration. He pointed out that the Sunnyside Realty Cos., which the council charged was organized for Cline's personal profit in real estate deals was started in 1913 while he became a member of the park board in 1922.

KEYNOTER BOOSTS SEN. LA FOLLETTE Speaker, in Addressing Third Party Convention, Says Senator Was Misled,
By United Press CONVENTION HALL. ST. PAUL, Minn., June 17. —A call to farmers and workers of the Nation to unite in a national farmer party —backing Senator Robert M. La Follette as a presidential candidate —was sounded, here today in the opening keynote speech of Temporary Chairman William Mahoney, opening the third party convention. "The time is ripe to overthrow the old line Republican and Democratic parties,” Mahoney told the assembled delegates representing the western revolt against existing economic conditions. “The various shades of radicals rnus; forget their animosities and blend themselves in a composite group behind one presidential nominee,” he declared. Would Unite Elements In one breath criticising La Foliette for his attitude upon the communistic elements in the convention, Mahoney in the next breath pointed to him as the logical man to unite the dissatisfied forces of the Nation into a powerful group with some i good hope of successfully overthrowing the major parties. Mahoney contended that La Follette has been "misled” into a denunciation of the convention. "We are meeting in response to a sentiment of the great mass of the farmers and workers for a distinct Farmer-Labor party,” Mahoney, who is secretary of the Minnesota Far-mer-Labor party which has neen so successful in this State, declared. Attitude Unwarranted “It was a cruel and unwarranted attitude for Senator La Follette to take,” he said. “The unusual character of the attack inclines one to the belief that the affair was not of his making, but was hatched tip by labor politicians in Washington who are opposed to the organization of a national Farmer-Labor party and induced La Follette to assassinate a movement that threatened to dispense with the service of high priced labor lobbyists.” But Mahoney at the same time made clear that there must be no disruptions of progressive ranks, as in former presidential campaigns when the Farmer-Labor party advanced one man and the Socialists another. “Our big task will be to lay the foundation of a movement that will provide a place for every earnest human being to help along in the movement for our common emancipation,” he said. “To accomplish this, we must have harmony, unity and cooperation.” Mahoney began with an explana-
ract Tommy. The world faded out for both of them. Elopement was the natural result. Norwalk had figured that Eddie Thrrne, a fellow student of Tommy’s was to be the lucky man. That was because of somethng that happened April 15. Eddie was driving Julita around that night in his snappy roadster, when he was arrested for “onearm driving ’’ Tommy Jr., is preparing to go to work. The exams which he was going To take for Lafayette College two weeks hence have been forgotten, for—“Man. I’ve got to go to work, I’ve got responsibilities now.”
tion of the origin of the convention, last November when "it was never realized that so many and such diveise obstacles would be encountered. “It was thought then that it was a thing which every progressive element in America wanted and would gladly give its support to.” he said. “Wr have since learned, however, to our g; *>at surprise and sorrow, that we were encroaching on sacred ground and infringing the prerogatives of certain would-be great political leaders and organizations and instead of getting whole-hearted and powerful support, we have had to overcome the most energetic and malignant opposition. “La Follette Inveigled” “The character and extent of this very* opposition- has, however, had the effect of stimulating our desire and determination to see this convention through, even though La Follette himself* was inveigled Into joining its enemies in the effort to kill it. “There is nothing revolutionary in our movement. In Minnesota it has been conducted along regular constitutional lines. But the idea or proposition of workers on the farms, and in the factory and on the railroads and in the mines, stores and offices and school rooms, joining together in a great political movement as useful workers and wealth producers, for the purpose of vindicating their right to work and enjoy the full proceeds o? their labor, is considered revolutionary because it will nTfcan the end of ex ploitation and the overthrow of plutocratic rule.” Points to Success Mahoney* pointed with pride to the success of the farmer-labor movement in Minnesota where two United States senators have been elected. He said the same success must now be accomplished on a national scale. Other States must be converted. The hour for the struggle is now at hand. “Minnesota has served as a laboratory in which to work out the principle of political organization which must be employed on a national scale before the great work can be done.” he said. Referring to the Communist attendance at the convention, Mahoney said: “Some opposition was manifest against participation of certain groups, but the dominant sentiment, was that the time had come for a great coalition movement among all progressives who would agree on certain definite demands along legal and constitutional lines. Prejudices and factionalism were rejected.” Mahoney also spoke of the golden opportunity for the new national party to throw the next presidential election into the House of Representatives.

BROWNING GUN DRAWS RECRUITS Natiohal Guard Machine Gun Cos, Seeks Men, “Pop-ity pop-pop-pop!” The little kahki-uniformed group clustered about a Browning gun on the W. Washingtoti St. front fires its bursts and waits, expectantly*. Behind them officials in the Statehouse catch their breath again, mutter threatening things under their breaths, and resume their work. Along the front there is extreme agitation. Finally the “enemy” comes out of the trenches and swarms over to the “nest.” The sergeant in charge starts an impassioned eulogyon the Indiana National Guard’s raachie gun companies and in a few moments a flock of rookies are corraled. The I. N. G. machine gun company recruiting unit has been active in front of the Statehouse for two weeks in an attempt to bring up the strength of the companies. Fifteen rookies were signed in one day. The popping of the Browning gun draws
them like flies. The man behind the gun is the cynosure of all eyes. It gets ’em! The steel noses have been pulled from the shells, so outside of a few J accelerations in heart action, the pe--1 destrian is safe from the “attacks.” DEGREE IS CONFERRED Local Pastor Honored By Colgate University Honorary degree of doctor of divinity has been conferred upon Dr. Frederick E.
