BATTLE FOR MANAGER IN LAST STAGE Final Week Before Election to Bring Extra Effort to Get Vote Out. Indianapolis’ most unusual political campaign will go into its final stages next week, when city manager leaders complete organization and turn loose a heavy barrage of oratory in preparation for the election June 21, It has been a campaign upon which all the activity has been on one side. Since April 18, when the campaign began with filing of the petition for calling of the election upon adoption of the business form of government, from thirty to thirty-eight speakers have been at the call of the campaign committee, headed by Frank E. Gates, and directed by Claude H. Anderson, executive secretary. , Approximately 125 manager meetings have been held in all sections of the city. The manager committee has supplied speakers to churches, community civic clubs, luncheon clubs and factories. Work to Get Out Vote Meanwhile, men and women have been organized to get out the vote and watch for fraud at the polls by Roy Lewis, men’s organization, and Mrs. Lehman M. Dunning, women’s organizer, and her assistant, Mrs. George N. Collins. The unique feature of the campaign has been the fact that the manager forces have beeen without the expected open opposition of professional politicians. No headquarters has been opened by the opponents. No signs of unusual under-cover activity upon the part of George V. Coffin, Republican county chairman, and Leroy Reach, Democratic county chairman, have been observed. Unless a sub-rosa organization, designed to spring into efficient activity on election day, has been built, the politicians apparently intend to let the election go by default. Factions Can’t Agree Some overtures toward an antimanager organization were made several weeks ago. Inability of the three distrustful Republican factions is understood to have prevented agreement upon any general plan of opposition. 1 It is known that Jewett, Shank, r and Duvall-Coffin Republicans approached Reach at different times with the proposition that a Repub-lican-Demecratic coalition to fight the manager proponents be made. Oratorical efforts next week will lead up to the mass meeting scheduled' at Cadle Tabernacle Saturday evening, when Meredith Nicholson, as a Democrat, and J. W. Esterline, as a Republican, will be the principal speakers for the manager form. The leaders in charge of organization will concentrate upon completing a city-wide poll and providing a poll book holder and competent challenger for each of the 237 precincts. Big Vote Urged With the election law' changed so there is no registration, the only w r ay manager proponents can prevent the piling up of fraudulent votes is by careful scrutiny of the polls. The manager proponents are working hard to get out a big vote, on the theory that the larger the vote the bigger the manager victory. They believe that the hard-shell party man will vote against the manager form, but that the independent vote will be favorable, and must be urged repeatedly urged to cast ballots.

A Wonder Has Come Into the Freiman Home; Boy With Eyes Like Dancing Stars Now Walks

Here are three poses of Irving Freiman, who is able to walk after being confined to his bed with paralysis for six years. The use of his limbs is improving every day after his father had sold his business and went to school to learn how better to treat him. In one pose he is shown with his happy parent, Dr. Joseph Freiman.

BY ALFRED SEGAL EW YORK, June 10.—This is the story of the wonder that has come in the house of Joseph Feiman, 1235 Forty-Ninth St.. Brooklyn, The child who was helpless for 12 years, has risen to his feet and w'alks. The feet of the child were without life and he lay in bed these many years until the other daly, when the wondrous thing happened. The friends of Joseph Feiman, the father, say. “It was the hanr of Feiman that brought this about. Such devotion as his seldom has been seen. Such love! Such sacrifice! This is no miracle, but the victory of a great love.” But Frieman himself praises the name of the Lord, who gave healing to his hands and courage to his heart. When Irving Freiman was 6 months old he was stricken with Infantile paralysis. It was in the year of the epidemic in which many children died and the father was most grateful that the life of his child was spared.

But soon he saw it was only for a living death, for his limbs were as dead as his body lay inert in the bed. Only in his laughing eyes was life; they were like dancing stars. The parents wept. ]NE day Joseph Freiman made a vow. With the help of God he would make the cniid walk and the feet would dance with the eyes. He had saved money, all he had would go for the succor of the child, unto the last dollar. And he carried the boy to this doctor and that; and in the evenings he rubbed his limbs, thinking that the warmth of his hands might impart to them a spark of life, and he was like some priest forever at his devotions in the temple. So the years passed and the dancing eyes of the boy looked out of the window and followed the children playing. And he was 6 years old and the father saw the beauty of his mind in the helpless body. An eager mind, reaching out, but bedfast. The father had come almost to the last of his dollars. There was one more sacrifice to make. He

And when |he had learned this he fitted a room in his house with appliances for the healing of the boy. In the morning and in the afternoon he put his body under the heat and light of electricity. And after each treatment he placed the boy’s legs in braces and under his arms he put c mtches and said, "Now walk.” But there was no strength in the limbs, and they fell under aim, and the father asked: “Is there no re- ! ward for love? Is devotion to go on forever without seeing a recoml pense?” But such doubts he quickly disj missed from his heart as unworthv. ! God was good, and in the fulness of time He gives the reward to those who serve with love. Thus six more years passed, and every day the father gave to the limbs of the boy the heat and light of electricity and bade him walk. Then the other day— He had given him the treatment,

BIG BUSINESS ‘AID’ USELESS TD ANDREWS Pledges of $50,000 a Year to Help Enforce Dry Law Only Fine Promise. This Is the third of a series describing the futile two-year fleht of Lincoln C. Andrews to make the ary law a fact. BY RAY T. TUCKER Despite Secretary Mellon’s dictum that politicians must have their . little say in selection of prohibition administrators, Gen. Lincoln C. An- | drews still has hopes of obtaining able executives for the more important posts. His optimism was based largely j on the attitude of certain big business. Large employers of labor, like E. H. Gary. John D. Rockefeller Jr. and S. S. Kresge, were growing alarmed at the low esteem Into which laws protecting property had fallen as result of the general contempt felt for the dry laws. So they inaugurated a holy crusade, proclaiming their intentions following a breakfast on sausages and buckwheat cakes at the White House. Through the committee of one thousand, the Gary-Rockefeller-Kresge group promised General Andrews they would draft from tha business world the ablest executives to serve as dry administrators. He was told that big business would contribute $50,000 a year men to serve for $7,500. Only a Dream It was a brilliant and unselfish form of patriotism, but nothing ever came of it. General Andrews, however, accepted their pledges in good i faith, but finally gave up in disgust. (•There emerged one man—Frederick j C.

Trip to Falls A pleasant week-end trip to Cataract Falls is suggested by the touring department of the Hoosier Motor Club.

road, owned by the United States Steel Corporation. Baird’s sacrifice hardly could be called awe-inspiring, for he continued to receive $12,000 from the railroad. His connection with the prohibition enforcement worked more harm than good, as his political backfurnished militant wets with effective arguments. General Andrews sought to reallocate his funds so he could pay SIO,OOO a year for administrators in troublesome districts, as New York and Pennsylvania. But he was check-mated by Controller General McCarl, who ruled that not a penny more than $7,500 could be paid. Barred by McCarl General Andrews then tried to hire Army, marine and Navy officers. With their pensions, the $7,500 salary might attract them. But McCarl ruled that only officers retired for disability could draw another check from the Government. Hardboiled, straight-shooting soldiers in I their fifties were barred. Thus Andrew’s, willy-nilly, was reduced to accepting the suggestions and advice of the Slemps, Watsons and Curtises. He also disj covered that he could not spend a i cent or make an appointment with--1 out consulting David H. Blair, commissioner of internal revenue and Republican boss of North Carolina.

FOES OF HIS FATHER WILL HONOR LINDY’ Turn of Wheel Forces Old Enemies to Pay Homage to Crusader’s Son. • Bu Times Special WASHINGTON. June 10.—President Coolldge on Saturday will voice a nation’s tribute to the son of a man who w r as driven from public life by the same political forces which placed Calvin Coolidge in the White House. The son is Charles A. Lindbergh, who will be acclaimed by the President and cabinet as America’s renowned hero for his non-stop flight from New York to Paris. The father was Charles Lindbergh, whose 10 years in congress were devoted to an unflinching and sustained assault upon the dominant political and economic elements of the Republican organization. Abuse, personal and political, was the lot of the father. Political exile and broken health marked the father’s life during ten of the years when the son was equipping himself for his epochal achievement. Even the personalities at Saturday’s official reception will recall the contrast between the father's departure—with his son—from Washington and the son’s amazing return. The second official to shake young Lindbergh's hand will be the man who probably did more than any other to drive the father from public life. He will be Frank B. Kellogg of Minnesota, secretary of state. Kellogg, himself a radical, in his early days, came to the Senate by defeating Congressman Lindbergh in the 1916 Republican primary, a primary marked by lavish use of money for Kellogg's behalf and lavish disparagement of Congressman Lindbergh’s record.
