SMITH BOOM SLACKENED BY , HISJBVISORS Democratic Presidential Talk Stops, But Leaders Still Active, By ROSCOE B. FLEMING Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June 27.—A sudden silence has descended on the Democratic presidential . situation, particularly among the followers of Governor Smith of New York. A month ago Smith was riding on a wave of buoyant discussion—some of his critics called it flamboyant. Democratic leaders all over the country were being quoted pro and con as to his chances and this naturally was exciting discussion of other candidates also. This has all stopped, for the moment, and the withdrawal of Smith from the limelight has not brought about much discussion of any other candidate. Democratic leaders here say the silence concerning Smith was brought aboht by himself and his own advisors. They were afraid that the Smith boom, being blown so big a year before the convention, would collapse before that time. So the order went out to Smith followers to “keep their mouths shut and their ears open,” it is said. Opponents Active The decision was partially inffluenced by the fact that religious animus against Smith was being rearoused following its partial quietus by his reply to Charles C. Marshall, in which be held religion and government need not mix. A pamphlet was issued by an Albany organization Smith with introducing a resolution in the New York constitutional convention of 1915, which would have permitted state taxes to be used for Catholic schools. This and other anti-Smith

FACTS ABOUT BROAD RIPPLE SWIMMING POOL

Broad Ripple pool was opened in 1909 and in the eighteen years of its continuous operation has never beeh closed for any reason. Any reports to the contrary are malicious and are started by some unscrupulous person with ulterior motives. The Broad Ripple pool is one of the show places of Indiana and is known the country over as one of the finest. It is the scene of swimming championships and most of the world’s records have been made in its waters under the auspices of the National A. A. U. The new filtration plant just installed by the Perkin’s Laboratories of Omaha, Neb., insures a continuous flow of water of the same purity prescribed for drinking water. The plant is open for public inspection.

Darrow Says Only Bigots Defend Indiana Dry Law “A law which would permit a person to die, rather than use whisky as medicine, can only be defended by a band of bigots.” Such is the opinion of the Indiana “dry” statute expressed by Clarence Darrow, famous Chicago criminal lawyer and social student, who was here Sunday to address the convention of the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People, at Cadle Tabernacle. “Every State is more or less cursed with unwise laws, but in this instance Indiana has leaped into the vanguard by passing one that is not only foolish, but vicious,” Darrow declared. Stand of Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom for modification to permit whisky to be prescribed by doctors when deemed necessary has Darrow’s hearty approval. Gilliom and Governor Jackson found it necessary to break the law to secure whisky as medicine for their families.

and anti-Catholic publicity was being broadcast, it was said. Smith’s friends have explained that he resolution, which Smith never passed, was introduced in retaliation for one which would have permitted the imposition of taxes on church property regarded as being aimed at the Catholic church. But Still on Job The Democratic leaders are continuing, however, under covet, the same anxious and serious discussion of possible candidates which they have been carrying on for a year, in the hope of avoiding a fight such as occurred in 1924. Not only are they discussing the possibilities of Smith and Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, but are carefully considering many candidates not so much in the limelight, such as Governor Donahey, for whom the Ohio delegation probably will be instructed; Cordell Hull of Tennessee, Governor Ritchie of Maryland, Evans Woollen, Indiana’s —or Tom Taggart’s—favorite son candidate, and Gen. Henry T. Allen, United States Army, retired, who commanded the United States. Army of Occupation in Germany and for whom the Kentucky delegation may vote.

NATION LETS RIVERS WASH WEALTH AWAY jDepartment Os Agriculture Seeks To Check Soil Fertility Losses. Tinges IVashinaton Bureau. 1022 \eto York Avenue WASHINGTON, June 27.—Farmers spend $150,000,000 annually to fertilize their soil, while rivers of the United States wash away $200,000,000 in measureable fertlity in the same period, Dr. \. F. Woods, chief of the science bureau of the Department of Agriculture, Baid today. Soil erosion has become such a stupendous problem in the United States that the department has asked that it be included in the annual Government budget. “This co'untry has literally been allowing its rivers to wash away hundreds of millions of dollars in the past by failing to protect the top soil on its farms,” said. Begin Campaign A campaign to educate the farmer toward top soil conservation has begun under Woods’ direction. The fertile qualities *washed out of the soil are potash, nitrogen, phospohric acid and organic matter. In order to protect these the farmer is urged to practice reforestation, keep his ground covered the year round with crops, see that grasses are kept growing on land on which no crops are raised, and to do his plowing scientifically. Mississipi Worst Two-thirds of the soil erosion is caused by the Mississippi River and its tributaries. For that reason any flood control program drawn up by Congress this winter is expected to include this subject in it. In spending money to save the farmers from loss, the Government will be cutting down expenditures to keep its major streams navigable, Woods asserts.

EXPERT OFFERS PENJERVICE "Pen service complete.” This is the business slogan of John E. Keller, proprietor of the Pen Shop, 41 E. Ohio St., the largest in-dividually-owned pen shop in the country. It carries the largest assortment of fountain pens of any place of business in the State.

Keller is a pen expert. He has spent years learning the mechanics of pen repairing. His early training j in handling machinery as a dieI maker and tool-maker peculiarly fitted him for the work of pen repairing. The Pen Shop is conveniently located in the city, “just off Illinois and Meridian Strees,” Keller pointed out, and custofers are being satisfied with the service given them at the shop. “We are showing the latest designs of practically all kinds of pens. Mothers’arid fathers, sisters and brothers and other relatives are welcome to look over our stock of graduation gifts. We will engrave names upon all pens if desired. “A gift of a pen has wonderful possibilities. We have had customers who have told us of the pleasures their pen gifts have meant to their intimate or business friends. A pen is indeed a constant reminds:* of the personal regard of some friend or acquaintance. It serves a wonderful utilitarian purpose and no business man wants to be without one in his work.” Keller’s shop is attractively finished and kept in good shape. He has a good daylight display room and a large workshop in the rear to take care of pen repairs of all kinds.

They are made up from 1 extra heavy, snowy white paper, specially processed. They afford a j clean, dainty drink. "Too many cases of illness can be traced to the evils of the common drinking cup which may still be found in some parts of the country, I but which is generally replaced by i the modern paper drinking cup.

These cups are inexpensive for all drinking purposes. Factory owners and industrial directors are recognizing the sanitary and economical features of Burt cups. STAMMERING IN FUN RISKY

Have you ever mocked or imitated the habits and contortions of a stammerer? “Beware,” said Benjamin N. Boque, president of the Bogue Institute for Stammerers, "lest you also are made to carry the yoke! "Children, especially, and I am sorry to say even grown persons, after witnessing some peculiar type of stammering or stuttering, which to them appears laughable, begin to imitate this unfortunate person: but to their sorrow, many of these mimics find that when they wish to discontinue the habit, the monster, with all its horrors, has securely fastened its talons upon them, not to be easily shaken off. "It seems to be a severe but just punishment, that those who hold up their fellow-men to ridicule because |of their infirmities often become I similarly afflicted. | “My advice is that if you have been habitually mocking the stammerer, stop it, and stop it at once. [The unfortunate victim, the target | of your jest, has already enough to suffer without bearing the taunts and ridicule of inhuman scoffers.” MOTOR INN HAS 24-HR 1 SERVICE “Right in the heart of the city for motorists.” The Service Motor Inn, 130 S.

FUNERALS ARE HARD TO PLAN When death visits a home or family circle it means there are many things that only an experienced funeral director can appreciate and attend to properly, for in the distraction of sorrow the average survivor cannot give personal attention to these details, according to William D. Beanblossom, funeral director, 1321-23 W. Ray St. Requirements of modern funerals have greatly increased the responsibilities of the funeral director, he pointed out, and the up-to-date funeral director must have considerable organizing ability to see that these responsibilities are met adequately. “Many persons may think that the duties of a funeral director are simply those of an experienced embalmer, but as a matter of fact, the funeral director must have a wide training as a business man to look after a funeral properly. "Along with all of the particular details which must be checked up carefully, the funeral director must reflect or give out that personality which engenders a sympathetic response and reaction.” Beanblossom has been engaged in the funeral directing business in Indianapolis for tw’elve years and has won a host of professional and personal friends in that time. He has a modem funeral home and office and his physical equipment is adequate to handle any type of funeral. A microscope capable of magnifying twelve million times is being used in the detection of disease germs.
