BEVERIDGE OUT OF SENATORIAL #ACE ‘FOR SURE’ Says He Is Determined to , Finish ‘Life of Lincoln.’ Literature has triumphed over polities in the case of former Senator Albert J. Beveridge. While voicing gratitude of his friends who hoped to induce him to run against Senator James E. Watson in the Republican primary, Beveridge today expressed surprise that anyone doubts his determination to remain out of the Senate race to complete his ’’Life of Lincoln.” Settled Months Ago “The question was settled many months ago,” Beveridge said. “There has been no wavering at all since then.” It will be 1928 before he completes his four volumes on Lincoln, according to Beveridge, now in the midst of examining ten large books of Washington newspapers of Lincoln's tirpe. Oswald J. Ryan, Anderson attorney, prominent in American Legion affairs, is one of the strongest candidates now under consideration of anti-Watson forces with the definite refusal of Will Irwin, Columbus •ness man, to run. Former Instructor Ryan was an instructor at Harvard University, was a delegate to an international labor conference and has been active in the movement to curtail immigration. He also is said to have studied the problems of farmers. Ryan is a former Indiana national executive committeeman of the Legion. Former Judge Solon Carter has support of many anti-Watson leaders to run against Senator Arthur R. Robinson for the short term, it is said.

What to Do If You Discover a Fire Prevention Bureau Gives Directions for Aid in Crisis.
Here’s the sensible way to act when fire breaks out, as outlined by Fire Prevention Chief florace W. Carey and Inspector Charles Brooks. “If by telephone, keep cool. “Call central in the usual way and for the fire department. “When the Gamewell operator answers, speak distinctly into the transmitter and give the location of tl e fire correctly. “When the operator answers, ‘all right,’ that is to inform you he has heard you call and will send aid. Then go to the street and wait for the first fire apparatus to guide them to the fire. “You should know the location of the fii-e alarm box nearest your home or school and how to operate it. “First, break the glass in the little door on the face of the box with a knife, stone or anything hard; turn the key to the right and pull the outerdoor open. You will notice when the outer door is opened a hook protruding from the top of the inner box. Pull this book down and let it go. Wait at the box for ,the trucks and guide them to the fire. Why not paste this bit of counsel where it is available immediately?
SALOON LEAGUE OR ABLE ‘ROCKED’ Bootlegging and Vice Rampant There, Charge. BU United Press WESTERVILLE, Ohio, Feb. 20. This little village, where the National Anti-Saloon League was cradled, is “seething with bootlegging, vice and petty thievery,” L. G. Whitney, city manager, charged today in an interview with the United Press. Whitney is the central* figure in a fight to oust City Marshal Harry Nutt. Whitney scathingly arraigned Nutt, declaring the marshal had allowed “bootlegging and vice, verging on debauchery, to flourish at the very door of the Anti-Saloon League here for five years.” Nutt defied Whitney to prove his assertions. “Perhaps vice is rampant here, but there is no evidence of it,” Nutt asserted. The marshal a few days ago was the principal in an unsuccessful dry raid in which an alleged woman decoy sought to entice him into a liquor entrapment. Nutt kept the rendezvous, but u r hen dry agents sw’ooped down upon him his pockets divulged no bottles and his status as marshal remained unchanged. TO FINISH UP DRIVE Y. M. C. A.
