BISHOP CANNON HAILED AS NEW MOSES OF DRYS Militant Southerner Puts Feet in Shoes of Late Wayne Wheeler. BY JOHN M. GLEISSNER Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Feb. B.—Bishop James Cannon Jr. of the Methodist Episcopal Church South is emerging as the successor to the late Wayne B. Wheeler in leading the organized drys in their demands on congress and in their political activities. Wheeler, for years general secretary of the Anti-Saloon League, dictated to congress and administrative officials from his office in a little red building near the Capitol. He shaped the course of legislattion and made and unmade politicians. Cannon’s base of operations is the same building, where the board of temperance and social service of the M. E. Church, South, has its headquarters. Cannon also is a leader in the Ati-Saloon League ;<nd a member of its principal committees, and is associated with other reform organizations. Power Is Displayed An exhibition of Cannon’s power occurred during the consideration in congress of the proposal of Senator Harris of Georgia to increase the appropriation for dry enforcement by $24,000,000. Secretary Mellon objected, saying needs of the various agencies first should be determined. and the money budgeted. Dry leaders, from their outposts about tne Capitol, were inclined to, agree. Then Cannon swung into action and dispatched a telegram to Senator Sheppard of Texas, in which was an open letter to Secretary Mellon. “Kindly read this open telegram to Secretary Mellon at senate session today,’’ Cannon wired Sheppard. And Sheppard complied. Other dry leaders quickly lined up behind Cannon’s leadership. Bishop Thomas Nicholson, president of the Anti-Saloon League, signed the tele- | gram. Senate Obeys Order Cannon criticised Secretary Mellon and asked prompt passage of the increased appropriation. The senate complied with his wishes. The house, fearful of offending the drys by voting against the appropriation, and anxious to obey the wishes of the administration to kill it, dodged the issue, refusing to take a record vote and sending the deficiency bill, td which the appropriation was attached, to conference. The deadlock resulting may kill the measure’. Bishop Cannon also has made an indirect threat to President-Elect Hoover to lead the drys in a movement in opposition to the retention of Secretary Mellon, unless Mellon agrees to the appropriation of more money for enforcement. Cannon talked with Hoover recently here . He says he told Hoover he had declined to join in any threat to oppose Mellon, because he did not believe that prohibition enforcement was the only consideration, and that he thought enforcement should be entrusted to a separate bureau. WELCOMES PRISON CELL Fountain County Man Wants to Get Away from Women. ■ Times Special COVINGTON, Ind., Feb. B.—Joseph Evans was happy when he was sentenced in Fountain circuit court here from one to seven years on a charge of failing to support his chilrden. “Now. I can get a rest from women." Evans commented. Troubles of Evans with women in the past several months have brought him into court on numerous occasions. At one time he faced four charges resulting from alleged offenses involving w’omen. After winning a divorce, he married again, only to be arrested on a children support case. RISKS LIFE FOR CATS Recluse at Decker Breaks Through Ice to Resell Pets. Su Times Special DECKER. Ind., Feb. B.—Charles Schnauder, recluse, is safe today in a little shack on the banks of White river he calls home, after risking his life to reach six cats, his only companions, which he left behind when he fled high water. On the day he left, Schnauder placed enough food within reach of the cats to last a week. When that period had passed, he attempted to cross the ice to his home, but broke through three times. He was able to get back to the shack the following day and found the cats w r ell except for hunger. PATENTS POWER DEVICE Plymouth Man’s Invention Operates in Stream Without Dams. Fir Timex Forcial PLYMOUTH. Ind., Feb. 8. A patent on a water power invention which operates without dams has been granted to Frank L. Gaede of {his city. A Southern Pacific railroad civil engineer who saw the invention in use declares it is certain to become a strong factor. The device in appearance resembles the caterpillar wheels used on tractors. There is an endless chain to which are attached buckets, and this is floated in a stream of pontoons. JAPAN HITS LONG KISS Film Osculations Must Not Exceed Thirty Seconds. TOKYO. Feb. B.—Film kisses have been officially approved by Japan. But they must be short %nd to the point. Osculations must not exceed thirty seconds each, so that American film stars must needs develop . a more snappy style in the clinches. They are warned that all long kisses will be cut by Japanese census in the pre-views.

Hey, Volstead By Times Special DECATUR, Ind., Feb. B. John Barnett, after 25 years on the water w’agon, has climbed off. He has resigned as operator of the city’s street sprinkling outfit.

GRAND CANYON INDIANSTRACED Clews to Ancient Inhabitants Are Found. By Science Service GRAND CANYON, Ariz., Feb. 8. —An exploration by park officials of the extreme northeastern portion of the Grand Canyon National park, seldom visited by white men, has brought to light the fact that long ago this area was occupied by Indians. In fact, along each of the permanent streams in this, as in other sections of the park, one will invariably find traces of bygone Indian occupancy. An outstanding find, according to G. E. Sturdevant, park naturalist, is that of an Indian fort. Broken pieces of pottery near the banks of Chuar creek first gave indications of former Indian occupancy. Search revealed the existence of thirteen ruins and one well-pre-served food cache. The largest of these ruins is about 20x30 feet and contains two inner compartments. About a mile farther on, near the head of the stream, were found more ruins, including the fort and five dwellings under a cliff. The Indian fort, made of stone with mud mortar, is in an excellent state of preservation. On one side is a stone door 20x24 inches, with an opening over the top. On the side facing the stream are seen openings three by four inches in size. It is the belief of Sturdevant that the fort commanded a one-time Indian trail leading from the Kaibab plateau down Chaar creek. Another group of at least twentyfive ruins was found near Kwagunt creek. Several pictographs were dis- . covered under a ledge at this point and also some Indian relics. MAN BELIEVED' DEAD INDICTED AT ANGOLA Grand Jury Takes Precaution on Theory Body Was Not Thos. Burke’s By Times Special ANGOLA, Ind., Feb. B.—A man supposedly dead was among ten persons indicted by a grand jury which investigated a crime ring in Steuben county. The name of the defendant on the “dead man” indictment is that of Thomas Burke, one of four men who robbed the First National bank here last May. In August, 1928, the body of a man presumed to be Burke, was found in the ruins of a barn burned near Fremont. Charles Zimmerman, former Sfeuben county sheriff, is under indictment charged with the murder of Burke, and at liberty under $25,000 bond pending arraignment. Officials said the indictment was returned against Burke, based on the bank robbery, due to a possibility that the body found after the fire may be that of some other man. KICKS ON SCHOOL BATH Englishman Tells Teacher He Hadn’t Bathed in Ten Years. LONDON, Feb. B.—When the village schoolmaster at Hottsbridge made a plea for a bath in his school, one of the school board, evidently opposed to the suggestion, stated that he hadn’t bathed in ten years and that a friend of his, who lived to be 90, never had a bath after his mother quit washing him.
