YOUTH’S KILLER COMMITTEE TO STATEASYLUM Frederick Matelich Sent to Michigan City by Judge Collins. Frederick Matelich, 62, of 283 Va W. Tenth St., was committed to the State Hospital for the Criminal Insane at Michigan City today by Criminal Judge James A. Collins. He had been charged with first degree murder in the slaying of James Louis Bernhardt, 20, who had attempted to aid the old man in crossing the street. Matelich at that time suffered from the delusion that Bernhardt had been enamoured of his aged wife. The young man had never seen the woman nor Materlich until he left the side of a girl with whom he was walking to assist him through the traffic, when he appeared feeble and unable to care for hirnself. The old man pulled a gun and fired when they reached the opposite side of the street. Drs. L. D. Carter and Fletcher Hodges, appointed by the court upon motion of defense attorneys to examine into the man’s sanity, testified today that he was insane. They attributed his delusions to hardening of the arteries and alcoholism. TWO escape” drowning By Times Special MUNCIE, Ind., June 15. Two residents of Muncie were saved from drowning Thursday.

THRILLS CROWD HOOVER’S LIFE OF 53JEARS Rose From Office Boy to World-Wide Known Chief of Thousands. BY HERBERT LITTLE United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June 15.—Herbert Hoover, the orphan boy from lowa, has had more thrills in his fifty-three years of life than is contained in several dime novels. If elected, he will be the first Quaker and the first man born west of the Mississippi to be President. The commerce secretary, son of a woman Quaker preacher and a blacksmith, made his start working as a truck gardener and then as an office boy in Oregon. He lapsed out into the world from big job to bigger jobs, successively as engineer, business expert, director of relief work and economic adviser of nations. He has no log cabin for birthplace. but he went to night school to prepare for college, and ran a laundry route—and later the laundry—to make money for his college course in Lcland Stanford Univer-

sity, Palo Alto, Cal., where he still has a home. Hoover graduated in 1895, 21 years old, and went to work as a mine laborer. Then he got a SSO month job as clerk for a mining engineer and worked in New Mexico, California and Colorado. He went to Australia in 1897 and directed building and operation of large mining and metal vorks. Two years later he returned to the United States and married Lou Henry of Monterey, Cal., a college sweetheart, and forthwith took her to China to do exploring and mining. In Tientsin, in 1900, when the foreign settlement was besieged by Chinese Boxers, Hoover helped to mobilize Christian and other Chinese to resist the Boxers. There he organized his first relief work, distributing food to refugees. Success as Engineer In 1902, Hoover became junior partner in an engineering firm, which met reverses through private speculation of one member. Hoover undertook to repay the debt-, and it took him five years. In 1907, he established himself independently as an engineer, and conducted mining operation in Australia, Burma, the Ural mountains, Alaska, Mexico and elsewhere. In 1913, he was executive engineer for firms employing 175,000 men. In 1914, he went to Europe to promote the 1915 Panama-Pacific exposition at San Francisco. The war broke out and Hoover was called on to help needy American tourists and other stranded nationals. He chartered hotels, pro-

vided funds and otherwise aided more than 160,000 Americans. Then the German army occupied Belgium. The little nation was blockaded and Hoover was called on to provide necessities of life for the 10,000,000 Belgians. He systematized and organized distribution, developed a charity fund of more than $50,000,000 and arranged for Belgian loans. Controlled Nation’s Food His relief commission operated its own ships and ran the industries of the nation to produce food. Special attention was given to feeding children. Five million persons at one time were wholly dependent on Hoover’s organization Hoover was appointed United States Food Administrator by President Wilson soon after this nation entered the war. He organized all America to restrict consumption and expand production to provide food for export to the soldiers and to the allied countries. He helped create the United
