CHEVROLETS IN JAM ON USE OF FAMILYNAME Louis Has Arthur Haled Before State Official to Show Right. Chevrolet brothers, famous fiery Frenchmen, whose name is known throughout the world because of their contributions to automotive engineering, glared at each other before the desk of Secretary of State Frederick E. Schortemeier today. Louis, the elder, had Arthur cited before Schortemeier to show cause why he should be permitted to use the name Chevrolet Aviation Motors corporation. This name was filed as that of anew corporation, which Arthur heads, and in which stock is to be sold. The corporation will build airplane motors. Some time before formation of the corporation, however, Louis had filed papers of the Chevrolet Aircraft Company with the state. He contended that the new corporation had no right to the name chosen because of similarity. Right Lost, Arthur Claims Arthur contended that when Louis sold him his interest in Chevrolet Brothers Manufacturing Company here, he lost the right to the use the name Chevrolet. The company .made automobile motors of special design. “Why, I have sold aviation motors made at our Chevrolet Brothers factory,” Arthur told Schortemeier, with a French shrug of his shoulders. He looked meaningly across at the elder brother. Louis, once almost as famous a race driver as the third brother, Gaston, who was killed, glared back. “Yes, you sold aviation motors, but it was my customers who bought them,” he retorted. Compromise Suggested In the midst of the controversy, Schortemeier emphasized the virtue of getting along “as brothers should” and suggested a compromise. “Let one company be known as the Arthur Chevrolet Aviation Motors Corporation and the other as the Louis Chevrolet Aircraft Company,” he suggested. At last this was agreed to tentatively by attorneys. Solon Carter represented Louis and John Holtzman represented Arthur. The hearing got under way with a wrangle between these two and Schortemeier ' sent them out in the hall to try for an agreement. Gordon Griffith and B, P. Prunk, Interested in the company of Arthur, were present. Griffith suggested a closed hearing, barring newspaper men, but Schortemeier ruled against it. “Hearings in my office on public matters always are open,” he declared. LECTURE IS~SCHEDULED Dr. Amos S.

CITY MANAGER LAW GROOM Report, Aimed to Cut Out Legal Flaws, Due Soon. Members of the Indianapolis City Manager League legislative committee are expected to complete their recommendations on the amendment of the Indiana city manager law and submit a report to the league executive committee Nov. 20, Chairman Winfield Miller said today. The committee is continuing its work on the proposed revision of the manager statute to eliminate legal objections raised by opponents. Miller, Councilman John F. White, Frank Noll Jr., Haryey Hartsock, and Claude H. Anderson, attorneys, conferred on the committee’s preliminary report Tuesday at City Manager League headquarters, in the Illinois building. The amendments will state that the school city is not disturbed under the change in municipal government. An effort to revise the manager law in conformity with the 1927 budget statute will be made.

FINES FOR POOL TICKET SALE Held Gambling Devices by Judge Collins. Baseball pool tickets are gambling devices, Criminal Judge James A. Collins ruled today when he found Otis I. Masten, 166 West Pratt street, guilty of keeping a room for manufacture and sale of pool tickets and pool selling. Masten was fined SSOO on the first count of the charge and SIOO on the second. The question of whether baseball pools are gambling devices has been argued many times in the last few months in municipal courts. Defense attorneys have asserted that the tickets can not be considered gambling devices until it is proven that wagers were based on them. They said pool tickets are similar to playing cards in this respect. Collins ruled that “all the paraphenalia seized by officers are gaming devices and the devices are to be confiscated and destroyed by the sheriff.”

O, and Ivan Hinson, of Mars Hill, all disappeared from their homes Tuesday. y SHERIFF PICKS AIDS Hawkins to Appoint Six to Jobs Thursday. With a month and one-half of his term remaining, Sheriff Omer Hawkins, who also is Republican county chairman, Thursday will appoint six of the sixteen special deputy sheriffs for county patrol duty. This will leave ten apointments for Sheriff-Elect George L. Winkler, unless Hawkins decides to appoint more before retiring. The appointments will be effective when made, it was said. The new patrol system, as approved by county commissioners, provides for maintenance of two night and day emergency squads, equipped with machine guns, rifles and first aid kits. A substation will be established at Ben Davis. Other teams will be stationed at the county jail. The twenty-eight present deputies and the new appointees will fill out application blanks which will be filed in the sheriff’s office. In the applications, they will be asked if they use intoxicating liquors, if they were ever arrested, convicted, fined or placed on probation for any offense and whether they were ever discharged by an employer or forced to resign. Winkler will use this data in running his office force.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

AVENGER FAILS, SO SLAYS SELF Tries to Kill Obregon Assassin; Disarmed. Bu United Pres MEXICO CITY, Nov. 14.—Captain Jesus Obregon committed suicide by shooting himself last night after prison officials had disarmed him when he announced his intention of killing Jose Leon Toral, confessed assassin of General Alvaro Obregon. He is said to be a nephew of the late general. The newspaper, Graflco, said in an earlier report that Captain Obregon drew a revolver in front of Torahs cell in the federal district prison, but was prevented from shooting by guards. Visitors at the prison yesterday said that Toral was busy writing a history of his case, which has occupied him almost entirely since the end of the trial. He was sentenced to death. Mother Superior Concepcion, sentenced to twenty years’ imprisonment in the trial with Toral, and convicted of being the “intellectual author” of Obregon’s assassination, has decorated the walls of her cell with pictures of the saints drawn by herself. She expressed herself as contented. PURCHASE PLANT SITE The Newel Food Products Company Tuesday announced purchase of a lot at Troy and Madison avenue for anew plant site. The purchase of the lot is the first step in an expansion program, John Henry Newel, president, said.

STATE LABOR WILL ASK BAN ON INJUNCTION Compensation Act Also to Be Target at Session of Legislature. Elimination of injunctions in labor disputes and rewriting of the workman’s compensation act will be the major objectives of Indiana labor organizations in the state legislature, opening Jan. 10. This became evident here today, when representatives of all state labor groups began mapping out their legislative program in conference at the English. Although final action had not been taken this afternoon, labor men were one in declaring strenuous effort would be made to wipe the injunction weapon from Indiana’s statute books, in so far as it applies to labor disputes. The 1927 legislative session granted increases in workmen’s compensation, but failed to make the Indiana law comporable to those of neighboring states. Again, labor sentiment wus outspoken for eliminating the products of prison labor from competition with products of free labor; for repeal of the SIO,OOO limit in State liability laws; and for a law providing for judgment in civl cases when three-fourths, or five-sxths of the jury agree. Bills to accomplish these objects either died or met defeat in the last general assembly. Thomas N. Taylor, president of the State Federation of Labor, presided at the conference, which was attended by representatives of the State Building Trades Council; Indianapolis Central Labor union, State Barbers assocition, Indiana State Council of Carpenters, State District of Machinists, United Mine Workers, Districts 8 and 11; State Conference of Painters, Paper Hangers and Decorators, Brotherhood of Railway Conductors, Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, Railway System federation, State Germant Workers’ association, Molers’ State conference, State Association of Plumbers and Steamfitters, State Electrical Workers association, Marion County Building Trades Council, Brotherhood of Railway Firemen, Enginemen and Trainmen, and Carpenters’ District Council of Marion county.

THE KING LOVED HIS GAME OF CHECKERS But the Queen Would Not Allow Her Grand Husband to Play Such a Very Common Thing as That. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN THE King was quite an old boy and not such a fool when the Queen was not around. The King just loved to play checkers, but the Queen would not tolerate such a common game as that in the royal palace. §o King Eric VIII had to hide his checker board when his royal wife entered his apartment If he didn’t out the window would go the royal checker board, accompanied by some very unqucenly temper upon the part of the royal wife. Am trying to tell you about “The Queen’s Husband,” a three-act

comedy or rather a modern bur-' lesque upon the home life of a certain queen who went barnstorming in this country. This play is by Robert Emmet Sherwood, who has no mean reputation for turning out smart plays filled with rapid remarks done in the slang of the day. We are permitted to see “The Queen's Husband” as the opening production of the season of the Indianapolis Little Theatre at the Playhouse. The comedy was given its first Indianapolis presentation last night at the Playhouse and it will continue for the remainder of the week. I might tell you that the touring company of "The Queen’s Husband” is now at the Shubert in Cincinnati, 0., with Marie Adels, formerly of the Bcrkell company, in one of the roles. The production now on view at the playhouse is entirely the work of the Little Theatre from the scenery right up to the actors. The cast of the Little Theatre production of this play is as follows: Frederick Granton Gordon F. Engeler Phipps Clyde Jones Lord Birten Harry P. Colmer Petlsy Paul J. Harrington Princess Anne Elizabeth Hassler Queen Martha Anna Louise Griffith A Lady-ln-Waitlng Helen Coffey Another Lady-in-Waiting Mrs. William E. Over General Northrup Vernon Bronson King Eric VIII Reginald Garstang Major Blent Edwin J. Kunst Dr. Fellman William E. Over Prince William Hardin Callithan Laker Victor Mussawir A Soldier Edward Callendar I can say that the outstanding performance in this comedy is contributed by Hardin Callithan as the insipid, but modem carefree Prince William. The makeup was in nature of gay farce, but with realism in it. The voice fitted the character as well as the actions. George Somnes, the director, picked the right individual to play this role. Reginald Garstang as King Eric permitted his character most of the time to be the weakling that the Queen supposed him to be, especially when she and some of his ministers were around. It seems to me that the King was not such a weak baby as Garstang plays him because the playwright gives the King a two sided character—the dummy as well as a man who could scheme as well as command. Anna Louise Griffith as Queen Esther looked like a Queen who could boss a royal palace and everything in it. “The Queen’s Husband” is done in three acts, but in the same setting, that of the private office of the King in the palace. The comedy gets a smart, wisecracking start in the first act and keeps up that tempo until the second act when it becomes melodramatic by injecting a revolution and that sort of thing. The third act picks up the nervous smart tempo of the first act. In other words the second act sags a wee bit and loses some speed. The Little Theatre has many functions and one of them every once in a while is to present anew smart comedy that would not reach the city as a legitimate attraction. That is the only possible excuse for doing this very modern bunch of nonsense. I am not finding fault with the Little Theatre for presenting this comedy. It is within the object of some of the accomplishments of such an organization. “The Queen’s Husband” opened to absolute capacity last night and will be on view at the Playhouse for the rest of the week. Other theaters today offer: “The Silent House” at English’s; Chase and La Tour at the Lyric; “Fazil” at the Apollo; Charlie Davis at the Indiana: “The Wedding March” at

Home-Made, but Ends Bad Cough In a Hurry

To end a stubborn cough quickly, it is important to soothe and heal the inflamed membranes, get rid of the germs and also to aid the system inwardly to help throw off the trouble. For these purposes, here is a homemade medicine, far better than anything you could buy at 3 times the cost. From any druggist, get ounces of Pinex. Put this into a pint bottle, and add plain granulated sugar syrup or strained honey to fill up the pint. This takes but a moment, and makes a remedy so effective that you will never do without, once you have used it. Keeps perfectly, and children like it. This simple remedy does three necessary things. It loosens the germ-laden phlegm and soothes away the inflammation. At the same time it is absorbed into the blood, where it acts directly on the bronchial tubes. This explains why it brings such quick relief, even in obstinate bronchial coughs and “flu” coughs. Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of genuine Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form, and known as one of the greatest healing agents for severe coughs, chest colds and bronchial troubles. Do not accept a substitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded. —Advertisement. HELP FOR HARD WORKERS Men who work hard, and those whose daily tasks expose them to changeable weather conditions are usually subject to kidney ailments and kindred ills. J. G. Wolf, Green Bay, Wis., says: “Foley Pills diuretic relieved me of a severe backache that had bothered me for several months. A few bottles fixed me up in good shape.” Cost little, satisfaction guaranteed. Men and women everywhere use and recommend them. All Haag Drug Stores.—Advertisement.

Every day 10,000 women buy a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’a Vegetable Compound. They know that there is no better remedy for their troublesome ailments with their accompanying nervousness, backache, headache, “blue” spells, and rundown condition.
