ANTI-WHEATCRAFT GUNS OF G. 0. P. CHAIRMAN SPIKED Republican State Women’s Leader, Backed by Wat- - son, to Retain Job. Mrs. Vivian T. Wheatcraft, Republican State vice chairman, will retain her direction of women’s activities during the coming campaign, it was stated in political circles today. The fight against Mrs. Wheatcraft was started by a number of Republican editors during the recent State convention. Later, State Chairman Clyde A. Walb, is said to have joined the movement, when he learned that the vice chairman is not in sympathy with his to become -Indiana's next Governor. The report of Mrs. Wheatcraft's victory followed a visit Walb made a. few days ago to Senator James E. Watson’s summer home on Maxinkuckec.

Wanted Mrs. Urbahns Leaders of the Walb camp sought to induce Mrs. Ben Urbahns, State treasurer, to endeavor to succeed Mrs. Wheatcraft. When Mrs. Urbahns expressed reluctance, Miss Agatha Dielt, Ft. Wayne, G. O. P. Twelfth District vico chairman during the 1924 campaign .was boomed. A crisis in the movement' to oust Mrs. Wheatcraft was reached at the State gathering at Turkey Run last Wednesday, it is said. Walb, according to political insiders, demanded that Senator Watson remove Mrs. Wheatcraft. Watson is said to have reminded Walb that he made him State chairman. Organization Desired The political maneuvers of the Walb factionists are said to have resulted from a desire to develop a Walb ftor-Governor organization from the headquarters group that will conduct the Senatorial and State campaigns this fall from the Severln. The Walb maneuver was resented by friends of M. Bert Thurman, collector of internal revenue, considered by many as Watson’s private choice for the .gubernatorial nomination. Boyce Gets Setback Frank C. Rozelle, who lives in Lagrange, as does Walb, has been reappointed head of the speakers' bureau and it is said that other Walb partisans are slated for organization positions. An effort to place William A. Boyce Jr., city clerk of Indianapolis, as Rozelle's assistant has been halted. Boyce recently aspired to be head of the first voters’ division, but lost to a man recommended by George V'. Coffin, Marlon County G. O. P. boss. Walb also is said to have-blocked a moYe to name Archie Bobbitt, State gasoline tax collector, as head of the legislative bureau, which directs the fortunes of candidates for the legislature. Bobbitt’s home Is in English, a city of the Third District, which is Thurman's home district. Politfcal observers believe that Watson, in justice to his strorig chieftain, Thurman, will not consent to monopoly of headquarters personnel by a Walb-for governor movement, and predict other disputes as a result.

MEXICANS FLOCK' 10 CATHEDRALS (Continued From Rage 1) and exposure, four babies died in the crush of waiting parents Monday. The presidential decree providing penalties for violation of the religious laws of Mexico will become effective Aug. 1, and it is in protest against this that the clergy has decided to suspend its functions. The decree, which reforms the penal code, comprises 38 articles and was signed by President Calles ahd secretary of the interior Tejeda June 24. What is Provided Clause one of the decree, which is of especial interest to foreigners, provides that ministers of any creed must be Mexicans by birth. Infringement will be punishable by a $250 fine or 15* days imprisonment followed by expulsion from the country, as provided by article 33 of the constitution. The new law will effectuate the old constitutional provision that all church property belongs to the State. Religious orders will be prohibited from acquiring or administering property or capital on penalty of imprisonment of their individual members for from one to two years. Convents, Monasteries Hit Religious orders, convents and monasteries will be dissolved when all persons connected with them have been identified, and members again communing will be subject to from one to two years in prison. Superiors, 'prelates, priors or directors infringing the law will be liable to six years in prison, except that women shall suffer only two-thirds of the prescribed penalty. "* One of the principal features of this most comprehensive religious law in Mexican history is the clause providing for the secularization of all schools. It is estimated that 1,000,000 children will be affected by this clause. Those responsible for private schools in which this clause/ is violated will be fined $250 for the ljrst offense and will be ordered to close their schools if the offense is repeated. Ban Explained In abolishing religious orders, Clause 6 of the decree says .that the State cannot permit any contract, agreement or compact to be effective which has for its object “the loss or sacrifice of a man's liberty on account of work or religious views.” practicing his religion, or any minister of any creed, who through public statements, writing or sermons incites the public to refuse to acknowledge existing political institutions or to disobey the law will be punished by six years imprisonment and a fine. If disorders result from the incitement, the punshment may be greater. Punishment also will be provided for members of groups using force, threats or moral force against the authorities. Newspapers Watched Not ijnly will all ministers be forbidden to participate in religious propaganda, either privately or publicly, and forbidden to critise the constitution, but newspapers having religious tendencies will he forbidden to Comment on national politics or to inform readers of the acts of the authorities, or of particulars relating to the functioning of public institutions. Political meetings in churches will be forbidden, but religious ceremonies may be held as usual. Municipal authorities will be required to register all churches and church properties with 30 days after the decree becomes effective and to submit it to the secretary of the interior. g A copy of tins law has been posted on the of every church in Mexico.

cided upon a hands-off policy toward the Cathollc-Mexican dispute, which It considers an internal Mexican affair. Unless religious property owned by an American is confiscated in a discrimatory manner or in violation of Mexican law, this Government considers it Khs no right to interfere. In this connection officials pointed out today that the churches and their holdings in Mexico have been property of tto nation since 1857. > In casep o* American ministers or priests expelled from Mexico for violating the law against alien religious ministers and teachers, this Government intends to confine itself as in the past 'to diplomatic attempts to mitigate the harshness of executing the laws without challenging/Mexico’s right to pass and enforce such legislation. Mexico Calm Although the outside world appeared to be alarmed at conditions at Mexico and regarding the possible result of tiie reiigipus controversy now raging throughout the country, the people of Mexico generally regard the situation calmly. This despite much acrimonious criticism from the outside. Spokesman, both of the Government and of the church are hopefull of confident that the situation will not resultHn a recurrence of bloodshed which admittedly would be disastrous to national progress.

AIMEE STORY OF BEING KIDNAPED 1 ATTACKED AGAIN , New Findings Will Split Case Wide Open, Says U. S. Attorney. Bn United Press MONTEREY, Cal., July 27—Investigation into the disappearance of Aimee Semple McPherson, evangelist, today centers at Salinas, wherewhere Dennis Collins, garage attendant, reported he saw Kenneth rmiston —missing radio operator of Angelu Temple—ten days after the evangelist dasippeared. Ormiston, according to the story Gollilns told, was accompanied by a woman who resembled Mrs. McPherson. The man remained there for ten days, renting a. cottage under the name of “George E. Mclntyre.” ; Assistant United States Attorney Ryan expects soon to complete a mass of evidence that, if proved, will “split the McPherson case wide open.’’ If borne out, ie will shatter the Los Angeles evangelist’s story of kidnaping and captivity and escape over the perilous desert rio Agua Prieta, Mexico. Ryan said. Findings Reported In an inspection of the cabin occupied by the “Mclntyres” at Carmel, Ryan reported Endings: A closely defined finger print on a book left by the late occupants. Other finger prints on pepper cans in the kitchen. An apron an dmaterial. worn by the woman, closely resembling the cheap dress cloth Mrs. McPherson wore when she "returned” at Agua Prieta.

The signature "Mclntyre” spelled with an “I” —or as “Mclntire”— on notes left irr cabin, tending to prove the name fictious. A dozen Carmel residents have given information adding to sy an s mass of evidence, he said.

P, ILLINOIS' VOTE QUIZ TOLD l Roy 0. West Admits Agreement to Defeat Senator McKinley. Hu United Press CHICAGO. July 27. —Democrats conspired with Republicans in the April Illinois primary, to designate Frank L. Smitii as Republican senatorial candidate, Roy O. West, secretary of the Republican national committee told the Senate investigating committee. West emphatically declared that the George Brennan-Democratic organization in Chicago had a working agreement with Crowe-Barrett Republican faction to defeat Senator William B. McKinley. Under tHe agreement, said West, the Crowe-Barrett Republican senatorial Candida. e was elected and Democrats—whose senatorial race was not hotly contested—received certain nominees for county offices. “You mean that a Democratic faction entered a conspiracy to have some of its candidates aided by a Republican faction and in return the Republican faction aided the Democrats?” • Chairman Reed asked. “I believe that is true,” said West. “I know a lot of Democrats voted in our Republican primary.” Willoughby Grilled Chester Willoughby, private secretary to McKinley, who handled about si>4|.ooo for him. was recalled. Willoughby said he had neglected to tell the committee Monday that two Chicago headquarters %vere maintained for McKinley; Wilioughby had charge of one office and Andrew Russell had charge of the other. v “Do you mean that you ran this campaign and yet knew nothing about what was going on?” Reed asked, impatiently. Not Around Much “Well, I wasn’t around very much,” said Willoughby. Reed questioned Willoughby at length on yearly donations by McKinley to institutions. The witness told of a donation to a college at Tuskegee, Ala., and said he had heard that McKinley gave $50,000 to Lincoln University, a Kentucky institution. Willoughby said a Mr. HHI of the Kentucky University made speeches for McKinley during the campaign. “Isn’t it a fact that Hill made the speeches because McKinley promised $50,000 for his university?” “I don’t know of any promise.” “Well, McKinley gave the and Hill made the speeches?” “I’ve heard it.” Willoughby said he was unaware •that the States was “flooded” with World Court propaganda during the campaign. He said the Illinois Federation of Women's Clubs sent out literature agitating American adherence to the ’'court. “And you were paying fbr it?” prompted Reed. “Yes, sir." Hit Snag Meanwhile the primary quiz met a series of obstacles. Counsel for Samuel Insult, public utilities magnate, and Allen Moore, chairman Ji* the Smith campaign Amve advised them that they can refuse to furnish information desired by the Federal investigators.

Insult Refuses Data Insull declined to reveal how much money, he gav<? to the Crowe-Barrett faction ~Tmre which joined the cam paign of Frank L.. Smith, Republican senatorial nominee, only a few weeks before the April primary. Moore has refused to name contributors who gave about $75,000 of the $253,000 which he has admitted was spent to further Smith's candidacy. Insull takes the position that the Crowe-Barrett faction was not in the senatorial race and that hence their activities are not a fit subject for senatorial inquiry. Moore contends that the minor contributors to the Smith campaign demanded his confidence and that he should protect them against publicity. According to best information now, the Republican and Democratic senatorial races cost something over half a million dollars. Insull in all spent about $173,735. lie gave all but ,$15,000 of that sum to help Smith and $15,000 to George Brennan, the • Deeomratic candidate. Smith spent in all $253,000 and Brennan, $20,000.
