GREEN’S LiOR PARTIES CAUSE C. o.;pjiiety Personal Friend of Andrews —May Force Dry Chief to Resign Soon. Times Wnshinnton Bureau. 1-122 \eu> York Avenue WASHINGTON, July 27.—CoL Ned Green's liquor parties, given in his hotel room while he was prohibition director for Northern California, threaten to have far reaching results, not only for himself, but for his chief, Lincoln C. Andrews, and possibly for the Republican party as well. The Green case, as the latest in a chain of embarrassing prohibition incidents, is causing predictions here that Andrews will resign from office as soon as he returns from Europe. Wanted to Resign In the first place. Congress adjourned without giving Andrews the additional enforcement powers for which he had asked* Andrews wanted to resign at that time, and was persuaded to remain in office only temporarily. Since then three more occurrences have made the situation more complicated. The New York Dwyer case of huge Jp>otleg rings; charges of corruption made against the cost guard and the grand jury investigation of Green and his confession of drinking and keeping a well locked bar in his room. A Personal, Friend Os the three, the last is perhaps the more damaging tc Andrews. Green was a personal friend. The two had served in the Army together. Andrews had asked power to name Army officers to all his prohibition posts, and Green was preSUFFERED WORST FORM OF STOMACH MISERY, SHE SAYS Bedridden Weeks at a Time; “Konjola Quickly Relieved Me,” Says Local Lady. “There Is no doubt in my mind about the power of this new Konjola, for I believe I suffered the worst forms of stomach misery, but I began taking this medicine after everything else failed and now my digestion is perfect and my whole MRS. MARY H. RUSSELL system is benefited,” said Mrs. Mary H. Russell, popular Indianapolis lady, living at 1024 East Washington Street, this city, while talking a few days ago with 'The Konjola Man, who is meeting large crowds daily at the Hook drug store, Pennsylvania and Market Streets, Indianapolis. “Yes, I had stomach trouble 10 years, and I would be laid up in bed for weeks at a time.” continued Mrs. Russell. "I would have \jomiting spells that lasted 3 and 4 days. ' Nothihg I ate would digest or stay in my system. Such quantities of gas would form in my stomach that I felt like I would burst. I would have terrible attacks of cramps, and just double over in pain, and I would have burning spells from my throat down to the pit of my stomach. Awful pains would center in my chest and back, and my heart would pump so hard I became frightened. Worst all, I couldn’t eat a thing that ■kiukl stay on my stomach and diBfest right. I lost weight and my health kept going down faster every day. “Now, I have tried about everything possible for my suffering, and when I started Konjola I admit! that I didn’t expect it to help me any more than the other medicines and treatments. Well, no person could surprised than I was the second day. I felt better than I had for a long time, but of course I was still afraid to eat. I kept taking Konjola and a few days later my appetite became almost ravenous. I ate a much larger meal than I ever did in several months, and it digested fine. That gave me confidence, and I improved more and more each day. Now I can eat fried food, beans or just anything that I couldn’t think of eating before, and my food is giving me plenty of nourishment, so that I have gained a great deal of weight. I never have the vomiting spells, or cramps, and my digestion seems to be as perfect as anyone could hope for. I have gotten relief from the gas and burnirtg feeling in my throat and chest, and my heart doesn’t feel like it is running away as it did before. “Conjola quickly relieved me of all the stomach suffering, and improved my health in every other way at the same time, so I cheerfully indorse this medicine.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, Pennsylvania and Market Streets, Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the local public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Freo samples Konjola is sold In every Hook drug store in Indianapolis and by all druggists in the other towns of this vicinity.' -Advertisement.
sumably the type of official he had in mind. It was Green, too, who suggested Inducting local officers into the Federal enforcement service, and Andrews approved of Jhis plan until he was forced to abandon it in the face of a storm of protests’from oil parts of the country. Maj. Walton Green, head of undercover agents, has already resigned, predicting General Andrews’ departure. Embarrassment Seen If Andrews resigns just before fall elections, it will undoubtedly be embarrassing to President Coolidge to nttfne a successor at that time. In making his choice Coolidge would be f(*ced to move with great caution among the various shades of wet and dry sentiment, facing the possibility that five, and possibly six States would be in danger of slipping from Republican control if a vigorous enforcement campaign should be started. Andrews consented to defer his resignation on account of the political situation, it is understood here. More Scandals Rut if more enforcement scandals should be unearthed, it may be more embarrassing to the Administration to have Andrews in office than to have him out. In either case, it seems probable that President Coolidge will have to reorganize prohibition enforcement between now and November, and in doing so cannot fail, whatever course he follows, to alienate a certain number of those voters who regard prohibition as the major election issue this year. BOARD OF WORKS ASKS FOR MORE Budget Total $168,000 Over 1926 Figure. Condition of streets and rising street lighting and water bills were named today by board of works members as accounting largely for an increase of $168,000.86 over 1926, sought in the board's budget for next year, which totals $1,630,120.76. “The present condition of streets, alleys and side-walks surely justifies an increase,” the board declared In recommending appropriation of $60,000, almost double Tthe amount this year, for street and alley materials. The board requests an increase of $8,459.60 for street cleaning and a gain of SIO,OOO for bridge repairing. A total of $415,000 for the city's water bills, $5,000 more than this year, is sought. Street lighting accounts for $385,000. A number of salary increases are provided in the board's estimate. The stipend of the municipal asphalt plant superintendent would be raised from $1,620 to $2,400, with the office of assistant superintendent abolished.

Grocer Has \Sideshow ’ Bird, \Monkey-Faced Owl’
E. E. Kurus, holding th e “monkey-faced owl.”
Probably one of the queerest living species of owl is the “monkeyfaced owl,’* captured hist week by E. E. Burns, grocer, 510 S. Alabama St. The present owner of the owl said it is the second one he has seen. He believes it to be a species of eagle. Burns is keeping the owl in a crate at his home. He captured the bird last Wednesday while driving in the country northwest of Martinsville. Stopping his automobile, he asked persons with him if they saw “the mokey” sitting on a tree root. Everyone agreed \Uiey did, so taking a seat cover from rfis car he captured it. Has Long Beak The bird's face is long and is covered with hair. It’s beak is extraordinarily . long and curved.' When its head Is dropped against its white breast,'from the front it looks much like a. monkey. / It can turn its head completely around and thus front an adversary from any side. When Burns tore off one of the slats on ttfe front of the box and brought the owl into the suhlight, it'blinked a couple times and then started to fight. Feet first, it attacked Burns, flopped Its wings and made several passes at him with its beak.

two other fellows and myself were hunting in the northwest part of the State and one of them shot a fullgrown owl of this specie. Had One Stuffed ■’We had that one stuffed and It now is in the office of W. R. Hunter, real estate man, who was with us. “You’ll notice the down on the back of this owl. He’s very young.” The owl has a wing spread of more than two feet. When Burns attempted to restore it to the cage, it snapped at him with its beak and cut a gash in his finger. Burns said he did not intend to keep the owl, but probably will sell it. Burns said the bird escaped from its box one night and because of being able to see in the dark, was ’’mighty hard to catch.” GARAGE WORK STARTED $350,000 Structure Will Be Unit for Marott-Spink Hotel.

The rewards paid out for return of these lost articles totaled hundreds of dollars, and among our proudest possessions are letters of gratitude and appreciation which The Times received.
