PREMATUREOEAIH OF MANAGER BIEL IN HOUSE LIKELY Action of Sims Measure to “Save Mayors” Expected on Second Reading. Premature death to the Sims amendment to Indiana’s city man ager law loomed as a possibility today when the bill reaches second reading in the House of Representatives. The amendment seeks to “save mayors,” making it impossible to supplant their rule by the city manager form during their tenure of office. The bill is chiefly designed to aid Mayor Duvall and Mayor Herbert Males, Evansville, to retain hold of the reins of their respective cities until their terms expire, even if the city manager plan is adopted meantime by popular vote. More than 900 telegrams worded exactly alike and urging support of the amendment were received by Evansville and Vanderburgh County representatives Thursday. A partial list of the purported senders of these telegrams were published in the Evansville Press Friday and resulted in protests from scores of Evansville citizens who claimed that their names had been forged to the messages. Representative French Clements, Evansville, received all the telegrams published in the Evansville newspaper. Out of the list of names printed, three immediately protested. Speaker Harry G. Leslie also received a number urging support of the amendment. They are being sent to Evansville by The Times for a check of the names to determine if any forgery has been perpetrated as developed in the case of messages received by Clements. Representative Ella V. Gardner, Indianapolis, will introduce a resolution to indefinitely postpone consideration of the amendment when it appears before the House for second reading. It is expected today. Mrs. Gardner stated that if her resolution failed to kill the bill “other steps would be taken to dispose of the amendment before it went to third reading.” The nature of “these steps” could not be determined, but probably will consist of an amendment .to exclude Indianapolis from the Sims inhibition.

BELIEVES CHOKING CAUSE OF WASHING TON S DEATH i Nose and Throat Specialist Diagnoses Last Illness as Inflammation in Throat.

Times Wnshin'lloii Bureau. J[t~~ -Veto York Avenue WASHINGTON. Feb. 21.—Had there been present day nose and throat specialists in his time George Washington might have lived much longer than sixty-seven years. According to Dr. Walter A. Weil.-’, nose and throat specialist, who. hamade researches. Washington succumbed to neither .quinsy, diphtheria nor ordinary acute laryngitis—all of which have been declared one time or another the direct cause of death. “ All information,” says Dr. Wells, “leads us to believe that the malady responsible for bis death was an acute edema of the larynx. It is characterized by a painful swelling of the structures of the larynx and adjacent tissues below and above, including the epiglottis, causing great difficulty as well as pain in swallowing. When the swelling involves the glottis, :he narrow gateway of the lungs, It obstructs the AIMEE APPLAUDED BY NEW YORKERS Evangelist Tells Story of Her Life. Bu I ailed Press NEW YORK, Feb. 21.—Mrs. Aimee Semple McPherson, completing a three-day series of sermons here, aroused the most spontaneous dhthuaiasm from her auditors in narrating a story of her own life. In a Sabbath appearance at a local tabernacle Mrs. McPherson likened the first chapter of her life to that of Samuel. Her mother, she said, had prayed for a little girl to preach the gospel, and her life had been tiie answer to that prayer. Next.came her conversion, at 17, by “a beautiful man, 6 feet 2 and with dark curly hair.” That was Robert Semple, evangelist, who later died in China. “I said ‘yes’ to the Lord and ‘yer,’ to Robert,” said Mrs. McPherson ecstatically. Barely mentioning the second marriage, which ended in divorce, the evangelist then took up her recent tempestuous life. “I have always been interested in radio,” she exclaimed “in the antennae, receiving sets and amplifiers, but T have never, never been interested in radio operators.” Her audience shouted approval and surged toward her, realizing her disavowal of Kenneth Ormiston, radio operator of the Angelus Temple, whose name was linked with hers in a conspiracy case.

entrance of air and threatens death by actual suffocation.” Rieeding. the treatment given Washington by bis physician, was he accepted forrrula in those days nd advised by the great Edinburgh :-r hool of medicine. It is not true, however. Dr. Wells ;yr. that - Washington was bled to death. He probably choked to death. Today doctors, in a cause like Washington's would operate to open up the windpipe and let the air directly in the lungs. Such an operation might have saved Washington's life. Washington was particularly susceptible to nose, throat and tracheal infections. Oddly, the city which today wears his* name has a climate particularly unkind to sufferers from maladies of the nose and throat. Washington had endeavored to combat h.’s natural inherited weaknesses with vigorous outdoor exercise. He did not, however, use enough common medical sense on his last cold. “He came in from a storm with his clothes cold and wet,” says Dr. Wells, “and neglected, to change. When the cold had produced a hoarseness, indicating that it had settled In the larynx and affected the vocal 'cords, he persisted in reading aloud, thus doing the very thing that would tend to increase the congestion and intensify the inflammation of the parts affected.” ELOPERS SOUGHT HERE t'onnersville Relatives Ask Aid of Indianapolis Police.

JIM REED WILL DEFEND FORD IN $1,000,090 SDII Case Filed by Aaron Sapiro Set for Trial on March 7. limes Washington Bureau. IM2 Sew York Avenue DETROIT. Feb. 21.—The richest man in the world and a prospective candidate for President will be leading figures in a great libel trial, scheduled to start here in United States District Court March 7. The suit is that of Aaron Sapiro. Chicago attorney and organizer of farmers' cooperative associations, against Henry Ford, for a million dollars. Sapiro charges that certain statements contained in an antiJewish campaign by Ford's magazine, the Dearborn Independent, damaged hint that much. The prospective candidate for President is the white-haired, fierytongued Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, whos presence as Ford’s chief counsel further promises a i trial of full interest. Reed's retain- * ing fee alone is said to be SIOO,OOO or more. Other elements, such as Ford's fame, his vast wealth, the racial and religious elements Involved, and the tie-up of the case with the great farmers’ cooperative marketing movement, seem to Insure that the trial will rival in sensations any in American history, even those in which ex-President Roosevelt was involved. Thfc stilt was filed April 23. 1925. Noted As Organizer Sapiro had won wide repute for his plan of organisation of farmers' cooperatives. lie began with the California Fruit Growers’ Association fifteen years ago. and organized scores of others, including great marketing pools for wheat, cotton, tobacco, beans, potatoes and other staple crops. His activities extended over thirty-eight States. He has also been counsel for the American Federation of Farm Bureaus, and other farmers’ organizations. The Independent charged thHt Sapiro was in league with Jewish bankers who, It was claimed, were seeking control ol' the food marked* of the world. They were attempting to get control of the crops Sapiro had organized, it was said. Sapiro countered with his suit against Ford and the Dearborn Independent Publishing Company, charging that Ford’s stnlaments had injured him as an attorney, both In Canada and the United States. Ho said ho knew of no conspiracy and A had never organized a cooperative i unless called in. His declaration covered ninety-two I pages and consisted of twenty-one I counts, each quoting an article lie i said had appeared in tho Independent. A'sed Crew of Lawyer* Ford sent emissaries to see Rood 1 in Kansas City fourteen months ago. | Reed later went to Detroit to see Ford, and was hired, 110 went to I work at once. A large crew of lawi yers was organized under his direcj tion, which began Investigating Ha- | niro's connection with tho coopera- | tives. They went into every of tiie thirty eight States into which Sa- | piro's organizing activities had pene- ! trated arid consulted managers, oftii errs, memliers and anyone else who had had official connection with tho i organizations, securing depositions 1 and records. ; Nearly a carload of these lias come to Detroit in preparation for tho trial. What kind of a ease Reed him ; won't be known until it opens, of ! course, but lie will come to Detroit as soon as Congress adjourns to take ; charge.
