COOLIDGE HOPE KEPT ALIVE BY 6.0. P. LEADERS Worry Over Strength Shown by Al Smith; Pressure Put on Dawes. BY BAY TUCKER WASHINGTON, Oct B.—Worried over Governor Al Smith’s growing strength and unsettled conditions in their own party. Republican leaders who attended Senator Butler’s conference have departed for home with a two-fold program for reuniting their ranks. It contemplates: A movement to mobilize public and political sentiment for drafting President Coolidge as the one sure hope of G. O. P. victory. An attempt to persuade Vice President Dawes to permit his name to be used openly as a presidential candidate. Republican national committeemen have little hope that their first project will succeed. But within the next few months it is planned to stimulate a demand for Coolidge so vociferous and widespread that it may lead him to reconsider. ' Dawes Next in Line Should this final effort fail, many of the Old Guard crowd will tufn to Dawes. The feeling that the Lowden movement has lost its momentum is said to have convinced many Republican chieftains that Dawes may consent to adopt the attitude of at least a passive candidate. Dawes is preferred to Hughes and Hoover by many of those who attended the Butler meeting. Most of them agreed that, despite Charles D. Hilles’ efforts cm his behalf, that Hughes cannot command sufficient support to make him a serious candidate. There is widespread support for Hoover, but it is not organized, according to present reports. The politicians do not seem to want him, and he does not appeal to certain big business interests. Whether his supposed hold on the public can overcome these two barriers it is too early to answer. . Want to Stop Hoover The demand for either Coolidge or Dawes is based largely on the desire to stop Hoover. Had Hughes shown any strength, the anti-Hoov-er forces would have been willing to line up behind him, at least for the present. If anything, it appears more certain the party wheel horses will fail in their attempt to change Coolidge’s mind. Only a few days ago a certain senator who must seek reelection next year tried to point out to the President in a rather plaintive tone the extent of the public and political demand for him. Coolidge is understood to have replied, rather dryly, that it’s nice not to want something you can get. Much nicer indeed, added the President, than to want something you can not get.

SYNOPSIS Nancy was pretty, a GAGE, and a blue-blood, even though she did live on the other side of the railroad tracks. But Nancy Just couldn't help falling in love and becoming engaged to handsome ERIC NELSON, who she had met at Edith Harcourt’s, a rich school chum. Nancy's pride causes her to break the engagement whn she finds that Eric s mother is a laundress at the Harcourt s. Unable to stand the tension or her enforced separation from the man she loves. Nancy goes to live in San Francisco. Here she meets Jerry Hall, a man about town, whom Nancy starts going with when she hears that Eric is interested in another girl. . , Nancy’s father is suddenly injured and Nancy, now without funds, is forced to take Jerry into her confidence. CHAPTER 26 Nancy was ‘dressed in her most becoming gown when she met Jerry for lunch. As she walked down Powell street she was telling herself that, after all, there were worse things than being a chorus girl. She could write Edith that she was doing a “small part’’ for the experience. Some of the girls would probably envy her the opportunity of seeing “behind the scenes.” Jerry greeted her admiringly. “You’re looking unusually sweet this morning.” “I’m being sweet.” she answered. His black eyes gleamed wickedly. “Are you? I wonder!” Nancy decided it was part of Jerry’s line to seem more dangerous than he really was. During lunch he told her he had called Winslow. “What did he say?” • He smiled at her eagerness. “Just what I expected, Nancy. That there wasn’t an opening at all now.’’., “Oh, Jerry—” “Wait a minute. You don’t think I’d let it go at that?” “What can you do?” “Lady, it’s done. I went to his office and spent an hour df my valuable time convincing him that he can use you, granting you come up to the required specifications.” v Nancy blushed.

“Supposing I don’t?” “You will. Trust Jerry. I’m to take you to the theater this afternoon.” His eyes became thoughtful. “But first there’s another little matter—” No premonition warned her. Even when he pressed her hand and murmured, “Nancy, I’ve been nice to you, haven’t I? I have never been unreasonable?” She replied, “Why, of course, Jerry!” His voice thickened. “I’m going to find out,” he said, “just how much of that you mean.” Nancy said nothing. She was thinking of the coming appointment with Winslow. Wondering what he would expect of her. What he would ask her to do. She was surprised when Jerry stopped his car before an apartment building. “What’s this?” “Something I want to show you.” She followed him inside to the third floor where he unlocked a door and threw it'open. “Not so bad, huh?” Nancy stared with approval. An attractive place, well furnished with a marine view. “It’s charming. Jerry. Have you gone into the real estate business?” “No. Sit down a moment. I want to talk with you.” His manner seemed devoid of sentiment, but his black eyes flashed. “I dislike misunderstandings. Nancy. Let’s have no pretenses on either side.” She was honestly bewildered. “What do you mean?” “I’m not one of the big-hearted boy friends,” Jerry said, explicitly, “who give everything they have in return for nothing at all.” Nancy’s cheeks paled. “Yes, yps; go on!” “This affair of durs seems to be too much on my side. I don’t believe in Santa Claus, Nancy. In fact, I’ve no illusions left about love. But I should like very much to make you happy if it lies in my power.” “What do you want to do, Jerry?” "If you wish to live in this apartment,” he said, “it won’t be necessary for you to go to work.” “Do you mean marry you?” Nancy asked, dumfounded. “My God, no! Please, darling, prove to me that you aren’t just a little gold digger. Sometimes I have thought you were kidding me along. Being sweet for what you were getting out of it.” “And I thought you were a gentleman.” His voice became more eager. “I’m not attempting to force you into anything. It’s for you to decide. You didn’t want to go V) work.” ... I

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Nancy opened her pocketbook and threw what remained of the bills he had given her upon the table. “I’ll send you the rest as soon as I make it,” she cried bitterly. “Don’t be silly, Nancy. It’s only that I want you to show me how much I really mean to you.” “You mean less than any man I have ever known,” she replied. And walked toward the door. He let her go until her hand had touched the knob, then asked, “What about the appointment with Winslow?” “I shan’t keep it,” she flared. “I’d rather beg in the street.” Without waiting for the elevator, she ran down the stairs. Walking briskly with her head high! And not a cent in the world! But she knew now there are worse things than poverty. A humiliation more bitter than going to work. She had been insulted by a man in whose chivalry she had the utmost confidence, and he didn’t even love her. Hadn’t pretended to love her.

CLOCK SMUGGLERS BUSY More Timepieces Go Into Russia Secretly Than By Legal Route. Bu United Press MOSCOW, Oct. B.—Watches and clocks valued at 1,600,000 roubles were smuggled into the Soviet Union last year, according to estimates of the government. This is more than half as much again a sthe value of watches legally imported in that period, licenses to the value of 1,000,000 roubles having been granted, mostly for Swiss mechanisms. Watch-making has never been successfully undertaken in Russia but the Trust for Accurate Mechanism has now made plans for a watch and clock factory. An output of 75,000 pendulum clocks and watches is expected next year. Veteran Minister Dies Bp Times Special MEXICO, Ind., Oct. B—Funeral services were held here today for the Rev.

TEXAS FAIR, LARGEST IN AMERICA, OPENS Turnstiles Will Click 1,000,000 Times in 16 Days. Bu UnHcd Press DALLAS, Tex., Oct. B.—The Texas State Fair, largest State fair in America, opened its gates today for a sixteen-day exposition during which time more than 1,000,000 persons will click the turnstiles. The fair park, located near the business district °f Dallas, covers 160 acres and is valued at $1,000,000. The permanent exhibit halls on the park are conservatively valued at $2,000,000. To the visitor, the fair park appears to be a city in Itself. All streets and sidewalks are of concrete, and the fifty exhibit halls are of brick. In addition the race track has a large concrete grandstand and there is a concrete stadium in which six college football games will be played during the fair. A revival of horse racing will feature the 1927 fair.

More than that, he had evidently expected her to accept the shameful bargain. What queer impressions she must have given him during those weeks of companionship. Where did he get the idea that she was so mercenary? So cheap that she would barter her soul in return for his patronage! She told herself, hysterically, that it wasn’t her fault. She had never done or said anything. Yet she felt soiled and besmirched by his suggestion. As if in some way she must be to blame! Incapable of sustained thought, she crept home and flung herself upon the bed. Penniless and friendless! What was she going to do? Confide in Mrs. Watson and beg food for a few days? SHE! Nancy Gage! “Never,” she* cried, tears streaming down her face. “I’ll starve first.” She wondered how long it would take to starve. The first days would be the hardest. After that . . . Even the thought of it made her ihudder. (To Be Continued)

WORSHIP FAILS TO CEASE FOR LACK OF PRIESTS Dozens May Be Seen Kneeling in Prayer at Any Hour in Mexican Churches. BY GESFORD F. FINE United Preaa Staff Correspondent MEXICO CITY, Oct. B.—The barred doors of the Cathedral of Mexico is the only sign that the Catholic Church is not functioning in Mexico. The churches, with the exception of the Cathedral, are open everywhere, and at any hour dozens may be found kneeling in prayer. The blesseed sacrament is no longer kept in the churches because there are no priests, but this does not prevent large numbers from continuing their devotions in the same spot where for years they knelt at daily or Sunday mass. Most of those who come to pray in the priestless houses of worship are of the peon class In whom the religious instinct dies hard. Except for the absence of flowers and white altar cloths the churches look much the same. Candles burn before the images of the Virgin, the Sacred Heart and the saints. Before the church doors the beggars sit cross-legged in -their accustomed places. On them seems to rest chiefly whatever burden of sorrow the change in the churches has brought. Their heads are bowed, their eyes focused on the ground. One can imagine them raising their heads only to the now unfamiliar sound of bells In the towers above them or to the echoes of hurrying footsteps of those on their way to mass. It is these sad bundles of rags and dirt which more than anything else seem to remind one that to millions, though the doors are open, “there is no one home.” Food Show at Anderson Bu Times Snerial ANDERSON, Ind., Oct. B.—Manufacturers, Jobbers and retailers are sponsoring an exposition and pure food show which will open here Monday to run a week.

‘CAN A HEN MOURN?’ PSYCHOLOGISTS ASKED Biddy Has Been Sad Since Little Girl Left French Lick. Bu United Press FRENCH LICK, Ind., Oct. The strange case of Biddy, French Lick’s most forlorn fowl, has been reported to psychologists at Indiana University for investigation. It was this way. “Biddy,” at the time a pert and petite pullet, became attached to little Eva Taggart, 4-year-old daughter of Thomas D. Taggart, president of the French Lick Springs Hotel Company, and grand daughter of Thomas Taggart, former senator and Democratic leader. She was selected as a pet by the girl, and could be seen clucking contentedly at her heels as the child wandered over the hotel grounds. At last, after several weeks’ stay, Eva and her parents departed, leaving Biddy behind. Now, Biddy, grown t° henhood, walls moodily by herself over the green hotel lawns. She’ looks neither to right nor to left. Other chickens
