PROGRESSIVES’!!! lOWA EXPECT BIG STATE MAJORITY <9 Say Senator Brookhart Wifi Declare Self for La Follette, LOTVELL. MELLETT, Times Staff Correspondent. DES MOINES, la., Sept. 27. lowa will be as safe for La Follette within a week as Wisconsin, in the opinion of progressives here. They expect Senator Smith Brookhart, whose re-election is conceded by a majority ranging from 100,000 to 300,000 —depending on the degree of discouragement % the regular Republican making the prediction—to announce himself definitely for La Follette early next week. With that done, progressives say, nothing in the world can check the progressive sweep ~of the State. Brookhart's commitment to La Follette is put down as a certainty. In addition, however, there is a persistent rumor in Des Moines that William S. Kenyon, former Senator, now United States Circuit judge, will declare himself also for La Follette. Kenyon and Brookhart are close political allies, brookhart hating received his present place through Kenyon's resignation. The announcement expected from Kenyon probably will mean his resignation from the bench. La Follette Clubs Strength of the Independent movement is very evident in lowa. Organization is proceeding as rapidly f s in any other State, not excluding j Minnesota. The northern part of the State is said to be completely organized with La Follette clubs iri every town and township. The State organization is financing itself, obtaining most of its funds from the sale of La Follett* and Wheeler emblems at $1 each. A steady income of more than $l5O daily has been pouring into headquarters for some weeks. The regular Republican organization is in a bad way. First, there is the irregularity of Senator Brookhart nominated in the primaries with the whole organization against him, and having no contact whatever with that organization now. Then there is the dispute over authority between an advisory committee appointed by Chairman Butler, consisting of former National Chairman John T. Adams, James Good, former Congressman, now resident of Chicago and Hanford MacNider. former head of the AmerJJUjmLegion, on the- or- hand and s A. Rawson. rational comand Bert F. irnquist, State chairman on the other. Advice Not Welcome Rawson and Burnquist have not welcomed the advice of the advisory committee very heartily. For example the latter two had worked hard to keep Charles G. Dawes from the State but the advisory mmiitee have brought him in for a series of speeches. Rawson and Burnquist fear the worst. Complicating the Republican troubles still further, Luther A. Brewer, Cedar Rapids reactionary publisher, has announced his Independent candidacy for Senator against Brookhart. The regular organization didn't want this. They still had hope of Brookhart remaining silent about his friendship for La Follette until this happened. Now they say Brookhart has been given full justification for coming out openly against Coolidge. Brother Seeks Sister John Barton, 532 Lockerbie St., asked police to look for his sister. Miss Helen Barton, 14. who is reported missing from her home in Frankfort. Ind. She had light brown hair, blue eyes and wore a checkered gingham dress. I.ook Out, Rabbits The season- is here.

BRACKEN PRAISED BY DR JEM Cites Him as Example of Democrat Economy. Bit Timcg Special NEW ALBANY, Ind., Sept. 27. Dr. Carleton McCulloch, Democratic candidate for Governor, in a speech here Friday night, continued his campaign discussion of methods for reducing taxes. He first called attention to the fact that the present appraisement of real estate In Indiana amounts in round numbers to three and one-half billions. Since these last valuations, he said, which were made In 1922 at the peak of prices, values have decreased enormously. According to the present law, the next revaluation of real estate would be made ip 1926. It is a manifest hardship and injustice. Dr. McCulloch said, that farmers and real estate owners should continue to pay taxes on these exorbitant values, and he intends to recommend to the legislature that a re\\luation be made next year. “This, however." he said. "Is only one side of the picture. We must also spend less moaPy.” He cited as an instance the State auditor's department under Robert Bracken, a Democrat, where there are only seven employes, including the gasoline tax department. Two of these persons collected during the past year nearly $5,000,000 in gasoline tax and did it at a -cost of approximately $5,000. "Over in the secretary of State's office.'' Dr. McCulloch said, "there are 124 employes to collect the automobile license and securities commission tax, amounting to approximately $1,000,000, at a cost.of four or five times as much as it cost two people under Democratic Auditor Bracken. Bracken merely shows the dfference between a political •administration and a business administration.” TIME TO MEDITATE William Braden Is Fined and Sentenced for Striking Police Car. It is bpd luck to get, drunk and drive a machine into a police automobile. This undoubtedly was the opinion reached by William Braden, 819 S. Delaware St., whose experience will cost him ten days in jail and lines of sll. Braden; according to police testimony before Criminal Judge James A. Collins in court Friday, was captured April 20 following a chase after he struck car driven by Officers McClure" and Fulton. Iknes of $lO for speeding, SI for drunkenness, and ten days in jail for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor, were imposed.

MISS HELEN SCHAFFNER AND THE AIREDALE FAMII V

It's bad enough when you have about ISO dog prisoners to attend to with accommodations for about eighty, but when you get eleven In one family forced upon you all at once it's almost too much, declared Dr. Elizabeth Conger, city poundmaster, today. The ten pups had not opened their eyes when they were taken to the pound. Miss Helen Schaffnor, 5234 E. North St., is shown looking over the “family of eleven.” Miss Schaffner was among persons who responded to the poundmaster's plea that citizens pay licenses upon dogs and rescue them from the pound, where owners who did not want to pay the fee caused them to be sent. The police drive on dog licenses has made the pound problem acute. Some splendid docs may be obtained at the pound by merely paying the required foes. Unclaimed dogs must be put to death after two weeks, law says. Miss Lenore C. Haag, 2859 N. Meridian St., a friend of the pound, has informed Dr. Conger she will furnish funds for erection of two rooms ifer the office and surgery to house attendants. Miss Haag is also having a quarantine pen built for dogs with contagious diseases.

ANOTHER FRANKS CASE FEARED BY City Searched for Boy> 14, Missing From Home Since Tuesday, By United Press NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—Although romantic tales of travel visions of strange lands and storm-swept seas may have taken Franklin Roshek, 14-year-old son of wealth, from his parent's luxurious apartment in uptown New York, police today are pointing to the similarity between the boys’ continued absence and disappearance of Bobby Franks, Chicago boy murdered by Nathan Leopold Jr. and Richard Loeb. The boy, whose father is the buyer for a Western drygoods house, has been missing since Tuesday. A young hunchback hobo of obscure address, a street corner acquaintance, built visions in Franklin’s mind, took him to the foot of Riverside Dr., pointed to the ships at anchor in the river ahd told him of playgrounds around the world open only to the seafarer. Left for School This much has been learned from Michaej Levy, 11, a chum, who has told of Franklin's acquaintance with the hunchback. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Roshek, have been distracted since Tuesday, when the boy left for school and did not return ir. the evening. “My pet. my baby, Oh, my babyl” cries Mrs. Roshek. “How could he ever leave his home? "i have given him everything.” A glimpse of the apartment and one knows this Is true. Only last Sunday Franklin had a birthday and. having expressed an interest in astronomy was given a telescope that could hardly have cost less than $350. He has an expensive radio set, scores of books and in h!s room is a catcher's mask and a "big league” glove and all sorts of playthings that ''Hunchback Reilly" as the young Levy boy calls Franklin's newly found friend, could never hope for. When he left home Franklin had so far as his father knows, only $1.50 in change, but he carried an expensive gold watch. His clothes were costly and well tailored. Nation-Wide Search For three days wharves, parks, railway stations and even more remote places have been scoured and no trace of the boy has been found. His father has ordered a Nation-wide search. Kidnaping is not suspected, because the boy left the apartment without his schoolbooks, although the mother had prepared them and left them neatly piled on a table near the door. This points to a premeditated departure, although the mother, almost 1 ■ vide herself with grief and running from room to room as though she will find her boy hiding from her in a childish prank, believes ho could not have gone of his own will.
