CARTER FIRES FIRST SHOT IN SENATE FIGHT Attacks Corruption in State and Rivals; Gilliom Speaks Tonight. BY ROBERT BEARD Booming guns in Indiana’s threesided Republican senatorial battle resounded over the Hoover political battleground today, threatening to drown the din of the Hoover-Watson clash and the scattering firing of eighteen gubernatorial candidates. Echoes of Solon J. Carter’s opening bombardment rang in the t-ars of • A ttorney General Arthur L. Gilliom as he rolled his artillery to South Bend. In his home bailiwick tonight, Gilliom will pull the firing cord unloosing his opening volley on the camp of “super-government” as did Carter, without avoiding personalties, in his home town of Rockville, Saturday night. Hatched Buzzards Senator Arthur R. Robinson, incumbent of the post in question, and third candidate in the triangular encounter, was still picking verbal buckshot from wounds suffered in the Senate set-to when he insinuated A1 Smith and Harry Sinclair were not strangers. Carter disposed of D. C. Stephenson, who, he said, “builded his nest high in the top of a dead tree and hatched the foulest nest of buzzards that this or any other State has ever seen;” and laid waste to Governor Ed Jackson, George V. Coffin, Marion County Republican boss, Ralph E. Updike, Seventh district Congressman, Harry E, Rowbottom, First district Congressman. Discreetly avoiding the slightest mention of Watson, he drew up snorting before the names of Gilliom and Robinson, his rivals. Gilliom, he said, was the attorney general who went through two grand jury investigations of corruption only to report in an address at Vincennes, Oct. 30, 1926, that: “They say that vast corruption exists in the State offices as if the charges prove it. If that is so, you would have heard of it long before this time I can tell you that I have been authorized by the Governor to spend as much of his contingent fund as is necessary to pursue the investigation that is being made.” Gilliom Deludes “Thus we see’ r staid Carter after reading Gilliom’s statement, “that this gang not only committed the crimes but concealed them so effectively as to delude and confuse even the Attorney General,—the mirror of the law,—and his assistants.” Declaring Jackson convicted by public sentiment although acquitted under the law, Carter said: “It was this same Jackson, who upon the death of Samuel Ralston offered the appointment of United States Senator to Frank Ball, Muncie, and it was this same Jackson who before an answer could be given by Mr. Ball, appointed Arthur Robinson, at the request of George V. Coffin and Clyde Walb who also is under indictment.” Jackson, Carter asserted, needs the assistance of Coffin, Updike and Robinson to prevent the calling of the legislature to oust him, and Coffin, he continued, needs Updike and Robinson “to keep him from being placed behind the bars.” “If for no other reason, Jackson must remain in the office clothed with the power to pardon so that he may pardon his henchman, Coffin, as a last resort,” Carter declared. “The junior Senator of this State” he continued “has from the beginning been the personal confident, intimate friend, professional advisor and political supporter of every member of this crowd.” Carter promised to uphold enforcement of all laws, including the Volstead Act. "I am against hypocrisy and I should feel that it would be inconsistent for me to appeal to dry people for their vote, if my law firm was making thousands of dollars every year defending bootleggers, many of whom were arrested by enforcement officers of my selection, as is the law firm of which Senator Robinson is the senior member.” Carter professed tc have no “panacea” for the “difficult farm problem” but said “I pledge myself to give to that question my most serious consideration and to do everything in my power to reach a just and equitable solution of it.”

DOCTORS SHOW HOW TO END COLDS IN FEW HOURS AT HOME

Many Here Try Method Hospitals Advise to End Head Colds, Coughs and Chest Colds

Endorsed as Ideal Way to Stop Head Cold, Cough, Chest Cold Pleasant for Home Use No longer is it necessary to guess in choosing the quickest way to get rid of a stuffy head cold, bad cough or deep seated chest cold. For doctors have endorsed a hospital tested method for home use which is giving hundreds of Indianapolis people the same quick relief that came to C. J. Wrenn, Estelle Gordon and so many others who have tried it. C. J. Wrenn Finds That It Ends Colds Quickly

Mr. Wrenn developed a bad head cold which nothing seemed to relieve. He couldn’t sleep except to dose off a few minutes and wake up with the feeling that he was being choked.

Then he called doctors at the clinic who advised Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral —a concentrated mixture of wild cherry, terpin-hydrate and other ingredients which have relieved even the most extreme hospital cases.

SENATE WILL KEEP CHECK ON BALLOTFONDS Teapot Dome Disclosures Worry Treasurers of Both Parties. BY PAUL R. MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, March 26.—Prep* arations are being made in thoi Senate to police the coming presi* dential election. Chairman Nye of the TeapotJ Dome committee announced today he soon will introduce a resolution authorizing appointment of a special committee to keep check on candidates’ expenditures. The matter has been discussed by the- various political interests in the Senato and no opposition is expected to Nye's resolution. Because of campaign coni ribution revelations made in the oil scandal: investigation, the resolution will propose greater powers and more extensive surveillance than was undertaken by the Bcrah committee in 1924 and the Kenyon committee in 1920. The Teapot Dome disclosures are causing considerable worry to treasurers of both political parties and to all the candidates. The campaign is expected to be expensive. Introduction of radio and other modern campaigning devices undoubtedly will increase costs. And at this very time, when more money is needed, wealthy contributors of both parties are becoming shy about advancing funds. They fear their contributions will subject them to senatorial investigation. The policing committee to be appointed probably will be composed of two Republicans, two Democx - ats and Senator Shipstead, farmcrlaborite. The resolution probably will authorize an appropriation of $50,000 to enable the committee to subpoena witnesses and to move about the country inquiring into any charges that may be made. The committee would start work in June as soon as the conventions are over. “Always Tired ai Night”—Try this A healthy person never feels constantly tired. Being "too tired” continually tells of something wrong. When John R. Gordon, Danville, 111., found himself “always tired at night and burdened with backache,” he took Foley Pills, a diuretic stimulant for the kidneys, and writes: "After a few doses, I felt better, could work easier, became stronger, and slept soundly.” Men and women everywhere use and recommend them.
