CANTON RESUMES , MDERMOTT HUNT Theory That ‘Key Man’ Was Murdered Exploded. Bu United Press CANTON, Ohio, Aug. 31.—Search for Patrick McDermott, missing witness, occupied investigatiOrs here today as the Stark Oounty grand jury continued its probe of the murder of Don R. Mellett, Canton Daily News publisher. Although the Jury is expected to return murder indictments on circumstantial evidence, McDermott is still regarded as the one man who, if captured, could and would tell a first hand story of the plot against Mellett and its execution. The theory that McDermott was murdered following the assassination and his body shipped to New York in a trunk exploded Monday when the trunk was traced to a relative of the shipper. A man had reported hearing shots and seeing the trunk loaded into a motor truck at the home of a suspect in the Mellett case.

'POISON SQUAD’ SYSTEM DISCLOSED (Continued From Page 1) sign from the State central committee before he legally became a candidate by filing his primary petition. Then, immediately after the primary, she stepped back into her role as vice chairman of the State committee. So the letter of the law was duly preserved If not the spirit and, as someone remarked, ‘spirits are illegal now in Indiana anyway.’ Does Not Take All Credit “But Mrs. Wheatcraft does not take all the credit for the victory. There was Mrs. Peter J. Davis, at Gary, and Grace Wilson Evans, of Terre Haute, not to mention the chairman of Marion County, Eleanor P. Barker. “Miss Barker, an Indianapolis attorney and chairman of the Seventh Congressional district, is a tall, clear-eyed woman who talks as she thinks. She has a poor opinion of men politicians and a poorer one of her sister aspirants. " "The men’s organization In- Indiana absolutely controls the women’s vote,’ she said. 'While that condition exists there will be no reward for a woman.’ - Explains Support of Watson “She was asked why the women had come out so loyally for Senator Watson if that were the case. “ ‘Because, she explained, 'we're tickled to death to be allowed to do even that. The vote is new to us and we are still pleased with it purely as a vote.’ “Miss Barker explained precinct committeemen In Indiana almost always are men and they select the woman who Is to share the work. In the county organizations men always are elected chairmen and they also choose the women to work with them. % Mean No More Than Shadow “ ‘ln Minnesota they have the fifty-fifty bill,’ she continued. 'This Is ideal and absolutely fair. There the. men and woipren have the same rights in the organization. Here in Indiana we mean no more in the Republican machine than a shadow.’ “She was reminded it must have been a substantial shadow to roll up 160,000 votes for Senator Watson. “ ‘Oh, yes, it’s a shadow that produces when it is told to,’ she agreed. ‘We women are dumb and hog-tied. But I’m a regular Republican.’ Marion County Is Key “Miss Barker expressed the opinion Watson will carry the State for Robinson and that the Robinson organization in Marlon County, In which Indianapolis is located, will support Watson. “ ‘Marion County is the key to the situation,’ she explained. ‘When Harry S. New ran against Watson years ago and defeated him YVatson had a majority of about 9,000 in the State without County. We counted the votes here in Marion until about Saturday. The election was op Tuesday. When we finished counting New had a majorltysof about 10,000.’ Given Time to Count Vote ‘You’re given all the time you want for counting In Marion County?’ she was asked. “ ‘All the time you want. There’s no need to hurry and, meantime, the State vote rolls in.’ “Miss Barker considers that the strength of the Ku-Klux Klan has faded largely from the political picture in Indiana. She was asked if she thought the Democrats would use the Stephenson scandal against the Republican machine. D. C. Stephenson, former State head of the klan, formerly the power behind the G. O. P. machine, is no* serving a life term on a charge of murdering a young woman. Power of the Klan Wanes ” ‘J don’t think,’ she observed, ‘the Democrats have the nerve to do that.’ “Consensus of opinion is the Klan In this State no longer counts as a solid" power. Whatever force it has was put to use for Senator Watson in the primary, the organization sending out two letters indorsing his candidacy. ‘But the Klan, in its palmiest days, failed to equal the force, efficiency, cheapness and safety of this new weapon in the hands of the State’s senior Senator—Mrs. Wlieatcraft’s machine, effectively patrolled by her poison squad—‘the whispering woman of Indiana.’ ”
