FORMER WIFE OF STEVE IS GIVEN AWARD ‘Try and Collect' Stand Taken by Prisoner on $12,082 Judgment. “Try and collect” appeared the attitude of D. C. Stephenson today in regard to the $12,081' judgment given by Superior Judge James M. Leathers Wednesday in the nonsupport suit brought by a. former wife, Mrs. Nettie Stephenson Brehm, of Oklahoma. - N This attitude was expressed by Pam Newman of the law firm of Newman & Hill, local attorneys in *ncst Stephenson matters. Newman said that he expected no action to be taken by Stephenson in the case and that Attorney Floyd J. Mattice, who represents the wife, can do anything he wants with the judgment. Reticent on Action Mattice refused to declare what action would be taken. The case attracted attention when on the docket at various times in Superior Court One. A garnishee action, which grew out of it, named Governor Ed Jackson, Police Chief Claude M. Worley, Attorney Ira M. Holmes and others as defendants, on the grounds that they had received property from the one-time Klan dragon, now serving life sentence for murder in Indiana State Prison. Denied by Defendants This allegation was denied by the defendants and nothing was collected. Mrs. Brehm came to Indianapolis from her home in Oklahoma and visited Stephenson at the prison during trial of the case. The nonsupport suit was based on failure to provide for a 12-year-old daughter, Florence Catherine Stephenson. It was charged that Stehenson left his wife when the girl was an infant.
DEMANDS VOTES IN 15 PRECINCTS BE REFUSED Defeated Candidate Asks Certificates Be Issued on Recount. Demand that votes in fifteen entire precincts should be thrown out, in the tabulation on which county primary nomination certificates were issued, is made by Jacob Morgan, defeated candidate for State Senator from Marion County, in a second paragraph of his recount suit pending in Circuit Court. Morgan’s suit, asking that the certificates be issued on results obtained if certain precincts found to be faulty in recounts just ended were thrown out, is directed against the county faction board, Ira M. Holmes, Judge James E. Deery and George O. Hutsell. Results of the primary election might be changed if these precincts, discovered in the recounts, were thrown out. No date of hearing has been set by Circuit Judge Harry O. Chamberlin, and the present term of court ends Saturday, cutting down the possibility of action before fall.

SETS UP RULES FOR MOTORISTS Insurance Survey Shows Accident Causes. If four rules always were observed by operators of automobiles and commercial vehicles accidents would be reduced to a minimum, insurance companies show, according to the Indianapolis Safety Council. The ru.es are: Courtesy and respect for the rights of others; realization that “children do not always think;” respect for all traffic signals and preferential crossings, and thorough inspection daily of each commercial vehicle for mechanical delects. A check of the cause of commercial vehicle accidents made by Chapin F. Greene from information furnished by the claims department of Indianapolis insurance offices shows that the mental attitude on the part of the driver is responsible for most of the accidents. Indifference to the rights of others is the greatest contributory cause, according to the records. Owners’ insistence on haste and dependence on insurance to cover any loss which may be sustainedo was another cause listed. The driver himself, receiving no bonus for the careful handling of the equipment in his charge also is often the cause of an accident by failing to give the proper arm signals and ignoring the signals of other drivers The Indianapolis Safety Council will hold Its second bi-weekly safety conference for commercial vehicle drivers Tuesday evening at the Anthenaeum.
