STEPHENSON PLOT BARED BY EDITOR (Continued From Page 1) with his machine and made them like It," Adams said ’his investigatior had shown. “This super-oath was greater thaa the oath of constitution!!, author ity, and any official who took the oath by so doing automatically re signed his office, for the office itself was vacatey by the act of the superoath. This is the opinion of jurists who have examined a copy of the original oath.’’ Serious charges have already been placed with the American Bar Association against certain officials and lawyers as a result of the investigation, Adams announced. Leaders Named Adams holds two other important committee chairmanships in the organization of the Republican Editorial Association in addition to direct-, ing work of the Stephenson investi gation. J- Frank McDermond, Jr., of Attica, is president of the association and Will O. Feudner, of Rushville, is secretary. “The unbelievable offenses of the Stephenson regime in Indiana politics aren't so much chargeable to the Klan, but to a supersuperior, mysterious and invisible force that used the Klan and its shibboleths to purify law and order,” Adams asserted. * “We have evidence' that Stephenson bought control of Indianapolis and Marlon County and held certain State officials under his thumb. He bought certain courts and several congressmen.” Appeal Planned Shorn of his former power and with his personal fortune dissipated by the costs of his trial for murder, Stephenson is preparing to file an appeal with the State Supreme Court from his conviction for the murder of Miss Oberholtzer. The time limit for filing the appeal will shortly expire and it is under stood that Stephenson, dissatisfied with the delay of attorneys who rep resented him in his trial at Noblesville a year ago, will ditch his entire legal staff and be represented by new counsel In the appeal proceedings. Stephenson rose to a position of dominant power in the Klan in Indiana by his organization of the hooded order, which at one time boasted 400,000 members In -he State. With the Klan organization behind him, Stephenson turned to politics and entered on a career of influence thht was cut short by his arrest for the murder of Miss Oberholtzer. Convicted in November He was convicted at Noblesville last November' of murder for the girl’s death and was sentenced to life imprisonment. Miss Oberholtzer died from poison taken after she had accompanied him on a midnight train ride from Indianapolis to Hammond, Ind. Two of Stephenson’s henchman, Earl Klinck and Earl Gentry, who went with him on the ill-fated trip, were tried on a murder charge, but found not guilty. In a deathbed statement the girl said she was lured to the chieftain’s palatial home, forced to drink liquor and accompany him on the trip, during which she was attacked and mistreated.

Indiana Cosmeticians Have Latest Wrinkles Unwrinkled. Has anything besides the weather been worrying you lately?—the hump on your nose, the four gray hairs on your temple, or the general condition of your epidermis? Get right into your galoshes then, and go over to Cadle Tabernnete. They're holding the first beauty show ever staged in Indiana there; began. Monday and continues until Thursday, under auspices of the Indiana Hairdressers’ and Cosmeticians’ Association. It’s a great show, with all the latest wrinkles to unwrinkle, the “last word" in cold creams, hair dyes and most anything you can think of to make you a successful sheik or sheikess. If there is one permanent waving machine on the floor there are fifty. That’s because, as I. Leon, a beauty expert from New York, who lectures over there daily, says, “permanent waving is recognized as the greatest boon to feminine beauty ever discovered.” Agrees With Him Miss Helen Jane Ross, 132 W. Nineteenth St., who was just "ceming” out from the permanent curling iron process, as applied by Miss Pauline Fansler, in one of the show booths, heartily agreed with him. There are almost continuous lectures on permanent waving at the show. “Permanent waving began more than 3,000 years ago,” commented Mrs. Viva 11. Norton, in charge of a beauty display. "The Egyptians wound their hair around sticks and applied hot mud.” All permanent wavers agreed that great advance had been made in the art since then. “Great advance has been made in. the public confidence in this great beauty adjunct,” commented Jack Price, an exjpert from Cleveland, Ohio. “In the last three years the permanent waving business has increased 600 per cent. There now are more than 10,000,000 women in the United States who have had their hair permanently waved.” Styles of Bobs Different styles of bobs ‘are attracting absorbed attention at the show. All agree that there is a general tendency to softer, fluffier, more feminine appearing hobs. "By the way,” a beauty lecturer remarked, "did you know that Ihe people of the United States last year spent $155,000,000 on beauty culture? Government reports show it.” Edward Coulson of New York, representing the, National Hairdressers’ Association, ‘spoke on “Permanent Waving”; Miss Maude Datzeil, New York, spoke this morning on “The Professional Hair Tint,” and J. F. McGann of Chicago will speak tonight on “The Value of Permanent Waving.” Only the evening sessions are ofien to the public. C. A. Pope is managing the show. Officers of (he Indiana Hairdressers’ and Cosmeticians’ Association are: President, Paul A. Krause; vice presidents, Mrs. Mary Ristine, Dr. Maud Grah and Mrs. G. Langsderf; secretary, Mrs. R. L.

GENEVA NEWS ENCOURAGES U. S. American Reformed Procedure on Arms Adopted. Pu United Press WASHINGTON, Sept. 88.—Borne Adminsitratlon pessimism over disarmament activities at Geneva disappeared today with reports from American Minister Hugh S. Gibson that the preparatory commission had adopted the American reformed procedure. This procedure involved reconsideration of arms problems by the technical sub-committee, eliminating troublesome political considerations, and speeding the work of the commission on practical lines. Gibson reported to the State Department he had restated the American position to the commission as follows: 1. That land armament is more susceptible of limitation by regional agreements. 2. Further 1 steps should be taken to limit auxiliary craft not covered by the Washington arms treaties. 3. That arms limitation can best be achieved by isolation and treatment of specific and immediate concrete problems, without waiting to find a set of abstract principles applicable to all armament pro 'ms on a world scale.
