She drove to police headquarters for aid. Stout had twisted loose from his bonds when police arrived: Though Stout said he only saw two yeggs, others in the neighborhood said three men drove out of the alley in the rear in a green Chrysler coupe with an Illinois license. The exact amount of loot cannot be determined until an audit is made of last week’s business, laundry officials said. The loss was covered by insurance.

DEMOCRATIC BATTLE CRY OF CORRUPTION IN STATE SOUNDED BY EARL PETERS

Stakes Hopes for Ticket on Harassing G. 0. P. for „ Fraud in Office. BY ROBERT BEARD. Indiana Democratic leaders have not receded from the position that corruption In government remains the dominant issue of the State campaign, despite the prominence of fym relief and prohibition in the political spotlight, declared R. Earl Peters, Democratic State chairman, today. Conflicting theories on campaign strategy. Involving the stress to be placed on the “big three” issues, corruption, farm relief and “law enforcement,” the latter embracing platform promises on the prohibition Issue, were to be thrashed out at a joint meeting of the Democratic State committee and State candidates at the Claypool this afternoon. Amplifying a statement broadcast to the Democratic press of the State, Peters said there would be no letup of Democratic arraignment of Republican corruption. This, he said, had been the intent of his statement that “the two main Issues before the voters of this State are farm relief and law enforcement.”

Democrats shaping the party’s campaign plans see their strongest hope for success of the State ticket in continuing the fight along lines sounded by Peters and candidates in the primary, before the controversial "modification” issue, injected by Presidential Nominee Alfred E. Smith’s utterances, was injected. Frank C. Dailey, Democratic nominee for Governor, and Albert Stump, the sensorial nominee, were known to have no desire to indorse Smith’s views in light of the State’s voting dryness. Stump, particularly, has so long and vigorously been identified with the drys "that any compromise was regarded as inconceivable' by party leaders. The Democratic party’s platform, State and national, however, pointed a way out, it was indicated. Both call for vigorous enforcement of the prohibition laws.

‘PRINCESS ANASTASIA,’ SHELTERED BY WEALTH, PLANS FIGHT FOR CZAR’S ESTATE

NEW YORK, July 16.—Under the sheltering luxuries of the William B. Leeds home on Long Island, a young woman today observed the tenth anniversary of the execution of Czar Nicholas II and his family in Russia by planning to establish herself as the sole survivor of that bloody affair and claim the residue of the late Czar’s estate, now held by British banks. There is a striking contrast bitween the plight of the woman who calls herself Princess Anastasia Tchaikowsky today and that

Bush, Republican nominee for Lieutenant Governor, that Hoover, if nominated, would not carry Indiana, Peters said Indiana Democrats "will not be compelled to waste time explaining why their leaders predicted defeat in the State of their party nominees one week and success the next.” Platform promises on farm relief were regarded as certain of bting adopted as a more or less important element of Democratic campaign strategy. “Democratic nominees,” he said, “have neither the ability nor the inclination to lessen in any manner the definite promises of strict law enforcement and agricultural relief which were made by common consent in the National and State platform.” Scout Camp Sets Record ANDERSON, Ind., July 16.—The largest cub scout camp in The history of the Boy Scouts of America closed for 100 Madison County ooys Sunday when they left Camp Horseshoe Bend for their homes afte a week’s outing.

Fifteen men had been called and only six were left to be called. It was believed by both sides most of those in the box would remain and that testimony could be started. Twelve Men in Box As the box stood when Special Assistant Prosecutor Emsley W. Johnson started questioning this afternoon, these men had been accepted tentatively: Edmond C. Karibo, 552 N. Oxford Ave., machine shop manager. Claude C. Maris, 5728 Beechwood Ave., automobile bearings manufacturer. Max H. Ziegler, 552 E. ThirtySixth St., wholesale coal dealer. Feliz Zeller, 230 E.

Remy is aided by Special Assistant Emsley W. Johnson. The defense is handled by Henry Winkler, co-counsel with Ira M. Holmes of Councilman Boynton J. Moore, Frankfort’s former real estate partner, when Moore was found guilty of bribery. The State’s case against Frankfort centers around the payment by Thomas A. Moynahan, real estate operator, to Frankfort of $1,400 for plans and specifications of a small storeroom. It was testified in the Moore trial that the plans were worth less than SIOO. Later the eity council rezoned the corner of Twenty-Seventh and Meridian Sts., benefiting Frankfort’s property. Chief Witness in Court Moynahan, State’s chief witness, and Mooree, one of the key men in the Frankfort defense, were in the courtroom most of the morning. Frankfort sat at the counsel table, conferring now and then with Winkler as the jury selection progressed. The young realty dealeer will take the stand in his own defense, Winkler announced. Criminal Judge James A. Collins reprimanded Winkler sharply on one occasion for the method of his questioning jurors unversed in legal phraseology.

CCOLIDGE AND HOOVER MEET AT RESTCAMP Nominee Goes 1,000 Miles Out of Way on Trip to Pay Visit. TOLD MID-WEST IS SAFE G. 0. P. Leaders Meet Party’s Standard Bearer on His Trip West. BY PAUL R. MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent SUPERIOR, Wis., July 16.—The old leader and the new leader of the Republican party discussed the political state of the Nation here today when Herbert Hoover, presidential nominee, came to see President Coolidge at the summer Whitehouse. Going 1,000 miles out of his way to the Pacific coast in order to confer with the chief executive, Hoover arrived here on his special train at 8:30 a. m., central time. He went immediately to the presidential lodge, thirty miles out. Foover will remain here until Tuesday night when he will resume his Journey to Palo Alto, Cal., to prepare for his acceptance speech Aug. 11. Hoover said he would like to go fishing some time this afternoon or Tuesday. Hoover was met at the station by a crowd of several hundred Republican leaders headed by former Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin. They carried banners reading “Hoover for President, 1 ’ "Superior Is for Hoover” and “Wisconsin Is for Hoover.” Little political significance was attached to the visit here. It was considered more of a courtesy call than anything else. Mr. Coolidge was expected to inform Hoover what part he will take in the campaign. Told Mid-West Is Safe Hoover’s resignation is Secretary of Commerce has been n the hands of the President for more than a; week, but the President has not yet j formally accepted it. He has been j delaying in order to select a propitious time for the announcement, those close to him here say. The President has, however, let it be known the resignation will be accepted. Hoover was informed the MidWest is safe by Republican leaders, who mhe meet in his hasty westward trip. In Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, lowa and Indiana Republicans of responsibility brought the word that’ the campaign is getting under way in such fine shape they believed the Republican presidential nominee could count on this vital political area. Dawes Promises Aid Those who agreed upon the conclusion included Governor Fred R. Zimmerman of Wisconsin and one of his opponents for renomination, Walter J. Kohler, wealthy manufacturer; Vice President Charles G. Dawes, who was tea host to the candidate for four hours in Chicago; Oscar E. Foellinger, Ft. Wayne, Ind., publisher; Col. Waller Riley and Alfred Jones, Indiana banker; Representative Dickinson, lowa farm block leader; Harvey Ingram, Des Moines publisher, and Representative Walter Newton, Minnesota. The Dawes report from Illinois was highly encouraging. Dawes, pre-convention opponent of Hoover and one of the framers of the Mc-Nary-Haugen farm relief bill, said he vOould do everything he could to help Hoover and the Republican party. He added that he would not undertake any stump • speaking campaign because they are too harrowing. Hoover’s friends, however, said they expected Dawes would make some speeches.

BY RAY TUCKER. HOOVER TRAIN En Route West, July 16.—Senator James E. Watson may be one of the G O. P. spellbinders in the East during the National campaign. John Q. Tilson, head of the Eastern speakers' bureau, traveling to Palo Alto, Cal., with Herbert Hoover, said today he thought the Indiana Senator would go well in some of the New England States, particularly Maine. Tilson is said to feel that Watson’s oldfashioned kind of Fourth of July oratory, with his stressing of the full dinner pail and tne Republican party’s eminent fitness to run the Nation, would set well with the farmers of Maine and -other northern New England States.

They like their political patter served in the old style up in that neck of the woods. It is understood that Watson has agreed to serve his primary rival in any capacity. Burying any personal feelings he may have in his desire ior party victory and, perhaps, the favor of a man who may be the next President. Assurances that Indiana would turn out an old-time G. O. P. majority were given the Republican nominee by Oscar L. Foellinger as the Hoover train sped through Indiana. Foellinger, who handled Hoover s primary fight, boarded the train at Lima and stayed on till his home city of Indiana was reached.

government in world affairs today offers a contrast similar to that drawn between “Anastasia” to-' day and ten years ago. Having survived its revolution the Soviet is in the news today in a heroic light.

The Italia survivors are under physicians’ care, but they who had given themselves up as sure t> die are even more jubilant than the Krassin’s crew and there is constant rejoicing aboard the ship. The Krassin, with Chukhnovsky’s damaged plane in tow, will make for Advent Bay to re-coal and proceed to search for the six men carried away with the dirigible’s gas bag and for Roald Amundsen, discoverer of the South Pole, and the five men who disappeared with him ir. a French seaplane. These men are the only ones missing. There was an unconfirmed report that Amundsen and two companions were picked up by the Russian icebreaker Maligin.
