CLAIMS WATSON CAMPAIGN IS TO ELECT THURMAN Foellinger Brands ‘Favorite Sen’ Mantle Veil of Deceit. The moth-eaten ‘favorite son' mantle" draped about the shoulders of Senator James E. Watson by “political' tricksters” is an effort to conceal the real purpose of his presfdential campaign, declared Oscar G. Foellinger, Hoover State manager, in a second statement today striking straight at Watson's candidacy. M. Bert Thurman. Watson's campaign manager, made reply today to Foellinger's" sharp statement of Tuesday in which he charged the Watson candidacy was an attempt to give his supporters control of State politics and place Thurman in the Republican nomination for Governor. Thurman said: “The assertion to the effect that Senator Watson’s presidential candidacy is a part of a conspiracy to obtain the gubernatorial nomination tor me is absurd on the face of it,” Thurman declared in his statement, “and an apparent attempt to mislead Indiana voters. I am not a for Governor. I withdraw from the race for the good of the party, and I would not accept the nomination if it were handed to me. “Os course, Mr. Foellinger and his political advisers are desperate because they have been unsuccessful in perfecting a Hoover organization throughout the State, and now that they have made the mistake of hav- j ing induced Mr. Hoover to file in Indiana, they are compelled to try ] to manufacture issues, in the hope that their candidate may make a respectable showing.” Hoover Nation's Choice “From over the State come indications that the Watson organization is sponsoring a ‘shush-shush’ campaign, attempting to chide;

voters into worshipping at the discredited shrine of the ’favorite son’ voodooism,” said Foellinger today. “Watson’s organization is blaming Hoover for interfering with the Senator’s candidacy. Behold the paradox, considering how apparent it is that ‘the shoe is on the other foot.’ “Might it not as well be said and more truthfully that Watson’s hopeless candidacy is an attempt to interfere with the logical candidacy of Mr. Hoover? “Hoover’s candidacy is not confined to the geographical limits of Indiana. He is the choice of sound Republicans throughout the nation. He is not asking sympathy and support as a ‘favorite son’ of merely one State. He is appealing on the grounds of competence and qualifications. His Indiana opposition is attempting to pin the tag of heresy upon those who score the ‘favorite son’ bugaboo. That is to be expected.” Coercion Used “The same coercive measures that have been used to linejup well intentioned Republicans behind Indiana candidates for the last four years are being used again and will continue to be used as long as the mask is not tom off the tricksters by the political intelligence of the Hoosier people.” Foellinger said the intent of the men behind Watson and “who have used him for their purpose” was disclosed by Will H. Settle, Indiana Farm Bureau Federation president, when he declared in a speech at Lafayette, that “A'vote for Watson or for any other of the ‘favorite sons’ in the other States met.ns a vote for Lowden or Dawes.” “In other words” the Hoover manager asserted, “it exactly means: give the Watson forces your proxy and risk further belittling of Indianas dignity so sadly disregarded in the years just past.” Proceeding to answer the question raised by Watson adherents: “Who is to blame for the presidential primary fight in Indiana?” Foellinger asserted Hoover’s candidacy “is consistent with his nation-wide campaign.” “That an ill-advised ‘favorite son’ promised to be an obstacle in his path to the White House in this State was the fault of the ‘favorite son’, not of Hoover,” Foellinger declared.

RUPTURE IS NUT A TEAR NO BREAK TO NEAL Some people have a mistaken idea that rupture is a tear. Rupture is not a tear, but purely a muscular weakness in the abdominal wall. Trusses merely brace these muscles, but do not strengthen them—on the contrary the gouging of the ordinary truss pad often increases this weakness, because it tends to shut off blood circulation. STUART’S ADHESIF PLAPAOPADS are entirely different being mechanico-chemico applicators—made self-adhesive purposely to keep the muscle-tonic, called “Plapao" continuously applied to the affected parts, and to minimize danger of slipping and painful friction.

NEW CHANGE GIVEN ‘PINT OF GIN LIFER’

Court Grants Appeal Right to Michigan Prisoner in Famed Case. By Times Special LANSING, Mich., March 23. Fred Palm, sentenced to life imprisonment for possessing a pint of gin, today was afforded anew j chance to escape from the cell to I which he w’as sentenced a few j months ago. ’The State Supreme Court has | granted a writ of error which enables him to appeal his conviction j and sentence. The filings upon which the writ is based attack the method of arrest, conviction and sentence of Palm and the constitutionality of Michigan's prohibition law which defines possession of liquor as a felony. The case of Palm, who was sen- : tenced here in Ingham County j Circuit Court Sept. 29. 132/, by Judge Leland V/. Carr under the habitual criminal provisions of Michigan's new criminal code, at--1 tracted wide attention nationally. I This was because the fourth | “felony” for which the law specified j he be sent to prison for life con- | sisted of this relatively minor infraction of Michigan's rigid dry law Liberal leaders in many parts of the country came to Palm’s ;Jd. He was prevailed upon to write a letter in his ceil in Jackson penitentiary, outlining the points in his convicto which he believed unjust and ; illegal and this letter was filed with j the Supreme Court by H. Stanley Copeland, oi Buffalo. N. Y., secretary of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment. In his letter claiming error. Palm, who pleaded guilty when brought into court, contends that the raid I made on his house by Lansing I police when the pint of gin was seized was not preceded by the serving of a search warrant. The arrest, which resulted in the extreme sentence, is thus claimed to have been illegal. Seek Ohio Ya'lev Conclave A delegation of Indianapolis furniture dealers and Henry T.

SUPER-PLANES WILL TRY FOR SKY RECORDS ‘Mystery’ Machine Locked in Hangar: No One Is Allowed Near. BY HERBERT LITTLE, United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, March 28.—American efforts to set new altitude and endurance records arc planned for this spring, in two super airplanes now in the capital. A “mystery plane” in a locked hanger at Bolling Field is expected to be the vehicle for the endurance effort. All details of the monoplane, built by' the Ecilanca factory, have been kept secret, including the name of its present owner. One report said the Duponts of Delaware are backing the venture. The plane arrived here Sunday evening, and its driver, w'ho gave his name as “Royal,” instructed Bolling Field mechanics to allow no one near it. Major Davidson, field commandant, gave the flier, whom he knows as “Lieutenant Royal," permission to use the field for test flights. The plane has not yet been taken up here. The “mystery plane” is said to have a gasoline capacity of 750 gallons—nearly twice the amount used by Col. Charles Lindbergh on his New York-to-Paris flight of thirtythree hours. Two of the tanks are in the wings. It is a cabin plane, like Lindbergh's plane, and is said to be equipped with a special Wright air-cooled motor, similar to those used on all American distance fights last year. The present duration record is fifty-two hours, set by two Germans. The distance record is 3,900 miles, set by Clarence Chamberlin and Charles Levine in their flight to Kottbus. Germany.
