SOUTH MAY PIN HOPES ON REED TO BEATSMITH Favorite Son Votes Likely to Be Massed for Missouri Senator. BY PAUL R. MALLON United Pre Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.—Senator Janies A. Reed of Missouri may be selected as second choice candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in southern States planning to cast their early convention ballots for favorite sons. A movement has been set afoot in the Georgia representation in Congress to name Reed as second choice in that State, and the Arkansas leaders likewise are discussing the plan. The scheme was advanced to rally the opposition against A1 Smith behind one man when the early favorite son convention votes are abandoned. Georgia is to be for Senator Walter George as a favorite son in the early balloting, but there is no serious belief at this time that George or any other Southerner can be nominated. Arkansas is to be for Senator Joseph T. Robinson. Nearly all the southern States are to have favorite sons. They decided upon that plan some time ago, to express opposition to Smith without engaging in open home State battles on the Smith issue before the convention begins. Reed is a wet and lacked popularity in the South ten years ago because he opposed some of Woodrow Wilson’s policies. It might be difficult to swing the South behind him as a first choice candidate, but southern leaders believe they may get their State delegations to name him as second choice behind a local son. Many regard Reed as the only man with a chance to beat Smith in the Houston convention next June and the bloc of southern votes might start a stampede for him if Smith is not nominated in the early ballots.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

COOLIDGE GETS MORTGAGE AND DEED JO FARM Duffy Fulfills Promise of Gift to President; Sends Papers. Luke W. Duffey, who three months ago deeded a farm of 176 acres in Pulaski County to President Coolidge, let it be known today he has sent the President, as trustee, the recorded deed and advised him that $192.50 interest on a $3,500 mortgage is due. Duffey, who is directing coordination of the motor transport division cf the State highway department lor the public service commission, revealed in an article in the current issue of “The Hoosier Farmer,” Farm Bureau Federation organ that he has advised the President on the course he may pursue in his “great agricultural undertaking.” “Enclosed you have as trustee the recorded deed vesting conditional title to certain Indiana lands as of Oct. 17, 1927” Duffey wrote Coolidge. “This deed carries a perfect title, together with all landlord's rights of possession and a grain crop tenancy.” Group Is “Select” “It Is drawn, as you know 7, in favor of a carefully selected group of ‘selected, economic' farm statesmen operating in Washington. The loss sheet of its last year’s ownership shows tax charges on a $6,600 tax valuation, together with an annual interest earning on a $3,500 mortgage, both deliquent. “It may be necessary, in order to evade the impending mortgage foreclosure and a land tax sale scheduled for the middle of next month, to engage the great paying ability of your beneficiaries. “The interest due bill calls for $192.50 payable, to the Hudson-Burr Company, Bloomington, 111., as agents for the Aetna Life Insurance Company of Hartford. Conn. The interest rate on the farm mortgage, whiqh matures Jan. 1, 1930, is 5.5 per cent. “This land grant was prompted by the hurtful activity of your wards—Reed, Mellon, Harrison, Fess, Jardine, Barnes, Hoover and Garrett, whereby they in blind assumption, to the general injury of the country at large, took full responsibility with you for the defeat of the most emergent of all proposed American measures—the belated Farm Equality Bill—passed by the last Congress. “By their uncomprehending action, they showed a marked need of some real land-owning contact and operating experience. Many believe an asserted interest in a farm ownership the surest means by which to quicken and cultivate your estimates, and improve your agricultural understandings.

Suggests Wall Street Aid “If the delinquencies are not paid, it would be well to advise your Eastern mortgage-holders that there has been no chance to apply the economic Wall Street genius of your able wards on this farm, toward the creation of either a carrying, replacement. or reserve fund. Perhaps, in order to save your farm from the Eastern sinking fund now holding as mortgage, an agricultural moratorium is needed and now for the first time useful to your co-farm partnership group. “You should ask your mortgage holders, as thousands have done, to be charitable for the reason that the business of growing wealth from the ground is now, because of tariff discrimination, at its greatest disadvantage in the life of our nation. “The surplus evil which has. for the fifth season, made your Indiana farm property show’ a loss of both the items of taxes and interest, is still playing havoc, not only with the farm’s earnings, but with the capital and principal investment made by others in your Indiana farm.” In The Times your “for rent” ad will work all day for you, meeting newcomers at bus. train and" trolley.

Pair Waited Firing Squad Together; Cosgrave and De Valera Now Rivals

Irish Leaders Once Friends; Both Now in America, Bitter Foes. By GENE COIIN NEA Service Writer NEW YORK, Jan. 23.—Once there were two Irishmen—but this once their names were not Pat and Mike. It was about twelve years ago, and they were waiting in their Dublin cells for guards to enter and lead them before the firing squad. For being Irish rebels, they had taken part in the historic Easter! week uprising, from which came the i greatly changed Ireland. Both had been sentenced to die. \ And as they waited, they could hear the crack of rifles, dully echoed from outside the prison walls. Hear Death Shots Each shot told them some comrade was paying for his rebellion with his life. They had no idea when their turn might come. It so happened that their turn never came, for executions suddenly were halted order of the British government. They left the prison free men again, ready to carry on their fight. They congratulated each other on escaping. And they lived to become the bitterest of political foes. One was a mild-looking little man in his - late thirties: a grocer's son, by name William T. Cosgrave. Lives to Be President He is the same William T. Cosgrave who arrived on our shores as president of the Irish Free State, with guns booming his welcome and silk-hatted, frock-coated committeemen bowing him in. The other was Eamonn de Val-

era, the lean, gaunt man who once headed the Irish government for his little hour and is fighting to head it again. He also is in America, having arrived several weeks ago amidst the usual quiet that marks the greeting of an “ex.” So today, by one of those peculiar twisting of Fate’s threads, two men who might have died in a common cause live in complete and uncompromising opposition. On Different Sides And so, also, they go about America but a few days ahead of or behind each other, to spread their arguments over soil that is neutral until it happens to support a son of Erin. In a word. President Cosgrave heads and upholds the Free State idea, and politely is accepted by the British government. De Valera seeks complete Irish independence and particularly opposes the Irish parliamentary oath of allegiance to King George. President Cosgrave stressed in interviews as he arrived in the United States that his presence here has nothing to do with De Valera’s presence. Expresses Gratitude i He has come, he has said, feeling j the necessity to express his grati- ; tude to a nation that has done so ! much for his people, including the I floating of a healthy loan. | De Valera, who expects to be a | future contender, is said to be rais-

KIDNAPERS HOLD HOOSIERJELIEF Young Farmer Disappears Near Pierceton. By Times Special COLUMBIA CITY, Ind., Jan. 23. —Harry Wolfe, 23, farmer, is believed by Whitley and Kosciusko County authorities to be in the hands of kidnapers, following his disappearance Saturday night.

Hunter of this city. “I suffered with dreadful pains in my sides. I had to go to bed and stay, sometimes two weeks at a time. “I could not work, and just dragged around the house. “I got very thin. I went from a hundred and twenty-six pounds down to less than a hundred. “My mother had long been a user of Cardui, and she knew what a good medicine it was for this trouble. So she told me to get some and take it. “I sent to the store for Cardui, and before I had taken the first bottle I began to improve. My side hurt less, and I began to mend in health. I took the second bottle, and felt much better. I followed this by two more bottles. “Cardui acted as a fine tonic. I do not feel like the same person. I am well now. and still gaining. My sides do not trouble me at all.” For sale by druggists everywhere.
