Wayne. He also asserted that the twb examiners “knew little or nothing of the conditions of public improvement bonds, and whatever information they knew, or would divulge, was placed'in their affidavits, which they then refused to sign.” Ruckner presented with the motion, affidavits from a number of persons familiar with the situation which declared that the appointment of a receiver for Ramsay would £e proper.

BOYER MAINTAINS , ‘STEVE’TRUTHFUL X \ Asserts‘Old Man’ Has Documents Recalls ‘Put It in Black and White and I’ll Go to Bat for You/

“Put it in. black and white and I’ll go to bat for you.” Upon this favorite phrase of *D. C. Stephenson, C. W. (Billy) Boyer, former member of the £tate highday policemen, bases Ijis contention that “the Old Man has the docu ments, sure as the world.” “Billy” was p henchman of “Steve” in the halcyon days when the deposes Klan dragon boasted that he was “the law in Indiana.” His job with Stephenson was aiding in organization of the Indiana Ku-Klux Klan. From this position Boyer went to that of advertising manager of “’The Fiery Cross,” former local Klan publication. The next step was politics and intensive campaign work for the Republican ticket in general and for Governor Jackson in particular, Boyer declares. “Steve called on me to carry the ‘vote for Jackson’ message throughout the State,” said Boyer. “I hired a car to cover the territory and ‘the old man’ paid for the trip and also my salary. I went Into varioup ■ communities and organized the Klan for Jackson meetings. We would get a prominent local minister to take care of the Introduction, and the choir girls would sing and we would make the affair a real politico religious proposition. “When we won the primaries I was transferred to the Republican

VINCENNES BRIDGE SHUT ■ i Highway Director Acts When Main Span Weakens. • With the collapse of the main span in the Wabash river bridge at Vincennes imminent, State Highway Director John D. Williams today ordered the structure closed to all traffic. The weakening span was detected Monday. Two other wooden spans are undec contract for replacement with steel structures. For some lime the highway commission has enforced one-way traffic over the unsafe bridge. The nearest vehicular bridge over the Wabash is at Terre Haute. Failure of Illinois officials to assist in Indiana's proposal to erect a new structure at Vincennes has caused a traffic crisis, now that the bridge is closed indefinitely. A plan now is being worked out for constructing a memorial bridge, to be dedicated at the Clark Sesquicentennial celebration at Vincennes in 1929.

Treat Colds 2^ys With ONE Treatment WHEN rubbed over throat and chest for all kinds of cold troubles Vicks Vapoßub does two things-at once:

(1) Its ingredients are vaporized by the body heat and inhaled direct to the inflamed air passages, loosening the phlegm and casing the difficult breathing, and (2) At the same time it warms and stimulates the skin like an oldfashioned poultice, “drawing out” the soreness and pain and thus aiding the vapors inhaled to break up the congestion. This double action of Vicks usually relieves the most stubborn cold over night.
