ME PRODUCES EYEWITNESS TO THATKjDNAPING Man Says He Saw Evangelist Tossed in Auto Near Bathhouse. Bv United Press LOS ANGELES, July 9.- An eyewitness of the .purported kidnaping of Aimee Semple McWherson was produced today by the evangelist. He is Harry C. Swift, who claims he saw Mrs. McPherson thrown into an automobile near the Venice bath-, house on the afternoon of May 18 and whisked away by two men and a woman. Swift’s story may be told to the Las Angeles County grand jury ep it reconvenes next Tuesday, f McPherson was elated over ißae Swift statement. Swift, a Venice bi'isiness man, attended her regular services at Angelus Temple, Thursday night and was publicly praised by the evangelist. “He saw it all, praise the lord,” she said. “And gave us this statement and a helping hand.” Directly contradictory to Swift's statements, however, was the story of Mrs. Macy Barnard, wife of Captain Barnard of the Culver City police department, who announced at the same time she had seen the evangelist driving towards Los Angeles after her supposed kidnaping. Mrs. Barnard said she and her husband were driving towards the beach. “We passed two women in an automobile and both my husband and I remarked that it was Mrs. McPherson,” she said. - “I had seen Mrs. ' McPherson several times at Angelus Temple and at the beach. She is easy to recognize and I feel sure of the identity.” Mrs. Barnard and her husband will probably be summoned before the grand jury also, authorities indicated.

FISHERMEN FIND BASS NOT BITING For some reason that even the experts cannot explain, bass fishing in Indiana has been on a decided slump since the open season began June 16. By some it is attributed to the delay in spawning and by others to the unusually heavy, though infrequent rainfalls. Streams have been in a roily condition, much to the disappointment of the bait casters and fly fishermen. In spite of these setbacks, historic Tippecanoe River has lived up to its age-old reputation of yielding the lion's share of game fish. Shafer Lake, the part of old Tippecanoe impounded by the hydro-electric dam near Monticello, has developed into a veritable rendezvous for the Waltonites and bids fair to rival any and all of the natural basins in northern Indiana. Thousands of fishermen lined the fifty-mile shore line of Shafer Lake over the Fourth of July, and a record catch was reported. Bass, both large and small mouth, form the principal catches at Shafer Lake, but nice strings of crappies and blue gills are being taken, it is reported. Monticello is cashing in heavily on her new attraction. C. B. Wirls, manager of the Hotel Forbis at Monticello, has developed into the most belligerent booster in town and has offered to buy the head of every bass weighing over three and one-half pounds caught in Bunions W f 1 Quick relief from pain.

Widening of Fall Creek and construction of anew Indiana Ave. bridge, the two projects to cost $254,000, are additional Items on the flood prevention program of the board of works, it was learned today.

Schmidt would conserve over Shank administration flood prevention planß in view of the additional $254,000 item was the subject of considerable discussion.

PARK’S LOG HOUSE NOT SO PRIVATE Largely through a hankering for quletifde and privacy, State Auditor Lewis S. Bowman chose Turkey Run State Park for a three-day stay over the Fourth of July. Prior to his departure, Bowman obtained permission of the conservation department to occupy the primitive log cabin which stands on Sunset Point in the reservation. Early on the evening preceding the Fourth. Bowman and his family retired, quickly slipping into heavy slumber. Dawn scarcely had arrived when hordes of tourists were swarminß about the park and many, attracted by the sight of the centuryold log cabin, drew near to observe the curiosity more thoroughly. Each new spectator would draw near to one of the uncurtained window's for a glance at the interior of the cabin. “From a little after three that morning until w'e arose in disgust,” Bowman declared, .“we were the principal object of Interest In the park.” "My Gawd," cried one of the sightseers as he flattened his nose against the window pane over Bowman's cot, ‘‘there's people that lives in there." “We were about as private as that Soldiers’ and Sailors' Monument,” declared Bowman, describing the night.

Was in despair over stubborn eczema Seemed like a miracle when Resinol healed | i

"I wish the whole world to know what Resinol Ointment haa done for me and my baby. I had given up hope of ever finding anything to cure the eczema on my ears. I was troubled with It for two whole years, using different kinds of ointments without showing any gooJ results. Many of them only made the trouble worse. My mother-in-law, who \Jiad used Resinol Ointment for many years, told me she had used it on her children when they were babies and had never been without it. I then tried

it on my ears and found that it worked like a miracle. After the third day my ears were better and within a week my skin was its natural color again. I use it on my baby whenever he needs it. Only one application will

heal.” (Signed) Mrs. Sebastian De Stefano, 85 County Hoad, Barrington, R. I„ Dec. 2.—Advertisement.
