SULLIVAN ASKS ! G. 0. P. AID IN OUSTING ‘BOSS' Democratic Candidate for Mayor Declares Coffin Control Supreme. “No man can be nominated by the Republicans unless he is approved openly or secretly by George V. Coffin and his organization,” declared Reginald H. Sullivan, Democrat eandidate for mayor, as be op',.,'*d his campaign with a speech of acceptance of the candidacy at the convention of the Democratic City committee Tuesday night. His thrust at the George Boss Coffin machine was followed by an appeal to Republicans to repudiate the clique within their party, which, he charged, fails to represent them. Asks Opposition Support l “We will poll a solid Democratic vote,” said Sullivan. "But that we i may defeat Coffin’s purpose to secure control of the city for four I years, we must receive many Rcpub- j lican vots. We appeal to Repub- ; licans to rebuke this machine, which ! does not represent either them or their party. We invite them to join haitcls with us in accomplishing this laudable purpose. “We assure them we will merit their support by giving to the city of Indianapolis an administration of which our citizens will be proud, and with motives as high as those held by the city manager league, from whom we have all received a lesson in civic patriotism,” he concluded. Predicts Election His acceptance speech drew long applause. The Democratic nominee predicted “history will repeat itself and I w'ill be elected mayor this fall, the same as my father was forty years ago.” The convention adopted a resolution in memory of Thomas Taggart . Frank Baker announced city wide poll to be taken beginning Oct. 5. Mrs. George A. Werbc, vice-chair-man, called a meeting of women workers tonight at Democratic headquarters, on the tenth flor of the State Savings and Trust building. Now is the time to buy a good •used car.

OLD GOLD brought about a great change in smoking habits. It gave smokers anew freedom of enjoyment . . . without any forbidden limits and without the need for self-denial. The man who used to say “I can’t smoke until after lunch . . . my throat is sensitive in the morning” now finds that he can “light up” whenever he pleases. For his morning OLD GOLD .has no more throat-scratch than his breakfast omelet. Likewise all those who have to guard their throats . • •

HE’S GOING STRONG Chinese Methuselah Now Is 252

BY O. C. BESS • United Pr*vs Staff CorrMpondrnt PEIPING. Oet. 2.—The world s oldest man. who. if his given age is correct, would antedate the American republic by almost a century, has been found in Kaihsien. a town in southern Szechwan protince. in the opinion of Professor Wu Chung Chieh, dean of the department of education at Minkuo university here. The man in question is Li Ching-Yung. Dynastic records verify to the professor’s satisfaction that LI is now' in his 252d year, or more than ono-fourth as old as Methuselah, the old man of the Bible, who -lived 969 years.

THE prolessor is interested especially in Li. because he is reported to have found a fountain of youth” in the shape of medicinal plants growing on the hills of Yunnan and Kweichow. Dr. Wu has gone to Szechwan province to teach and is urging the patriach to visit Peping. so that the secret of his longevity can be investigated. Professor Wu was told that Li has survived twenty-three wives, and now is living with his twentyfourth, who is a mere 60 years of age. Shanghai newspapers recently printed a picture of Li. showing him to have a long chin, "prominent ears and a beard, which legend says turned white a century ago. Li still walks with the firm tread of a man in his prime and has a large appetite, Wu was informed. Li Ching-Yun, according to the professor's informants, has records to show he was born in 1677, during the reign of the Emperor Kang Hai. the second emperor of the Manchu dynasty. He w r as a druggist in his youth, and during his research for medicinal plants on the mountains of Yunnan discovered the herbs which have prolonged his life so remarkably. ana WHEN Li attained the age of 100. in 1777. his “old age” was considered remarkable, and the provincial authorities petitioned the imperial government for an appropriate recognition. The government at Peiping consented, and it Is declared the order for this action is contained in the. dynastic records'. But, Li kept on living, the reports go, and astonished his neighborhood by reaching his 200th year. The imperial government was surprised to get a petition urging further recognition and, accord-

ing to Professor Wu, verified the old man's great age in the records. Professor Wu understands that Li speaks readily concerning events in his life, and has no trouble recalling incidents which occurred more than one hundred years ago. SUGGESTS -SPANKING’ FOR MAN AND GIRL Commissioner Kern Holds Young Couple in Mann Act Case. An “old-fashioned spanking” was the punishment suggested by John W. Kern, United States commissioner, for Jim W. Smith, 21, and Mrs. Hazel Elizabeth Schaeffer, 17, both of Marion, held to the federal grand jury on a white slavery charge. Smith, on parole from the Indiana state reformatory, and the girl, considerably under five feet in height, are charged with violation of the Mann act in going together from Marion to St. Louis and returning. Mrs. Schaeffer said she couldn’t live with her husband because "he was living with another woman.” Kern set bond at $2,000 for Mrs. Schaeffer and $2,500 for Smith. ‘‘As soon as we get out of this trouble we are going to get married, if we can,” they told Kern.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

6LOSSBRENNER j LABOR ATTITUDE IS UNDER LASH * I Printing Trades Condemn Republican Candidate on * Past Activity. Resolution of the Allied Printing Trades Council of Indianapolis to utilize its resources and unite its efforts against the nomination of Alfred M. Glossbrenner as Republican candidate for mayor was made public today. As adopted Tuesday night, it reads: "Whereas, The name of Alfred M. Glossbrenner has been suggested as a probable nominee for the office of mayor of the city of Indianapolis; and Advocates “American Plan” “Whereas, HLs reputation as an ultra-radical anti-laboring man, and an avowed enemy of labor having any rights whatsoever, and his reputation as a foremost advocate of the discredited so-called ‘American plan,’ ‘yellow dog contract,’ etc., and the further fact that he has been a bitter advocate for longer hours and less pay for labor, make him a man totally unfit for such a high office; and “Whereas. Were he to be elected mayor of this city and his policies put in force, every wage earner would find his wage reduced, and longer hours would force many out of employment; this would be a .serious blow to business generally, w hich has prospered as a result of fair wages and fair hours, and time %nd money to spend to keep the wheels of Industry turning; and “Whereas, For several years it has been apparent the activities of this man and his associates have had a serious and depressing influence on the general welfa** of the city, the result which is the couse arid answer to the paramount question of recent years, ‘What is wrong with Indianapolis?’ and Would Complete Destruction “Whereas, It would only take the election of this man to complete the destruction work thatj has been done by him and the famous ‘Committee

LAUDS FEDERAL BANK American business is prevented from suffering financial panics through the organization of the Federal Reserve System. L. A. Wiles, vice-president of the Fletcher Savings and Trust Company, told the Universal Club Tuesday noon at the Columbia Club. “The provisions of the federal reserve system of banking makes it impossible for certain banks to remove, from territorial- limits prescribed. more than a certain amount of currency and it is impossible for such institutions to ‘corner’ the money market,” Wiles said.

Modern Mothers Help Create New Slogan Millions More Each Year Turn to Famous External Method of Treating Colds. Each year more and more mothers turn to Vicks Vapoßub, the modern external treatment for colds, because it is just rubbed on and cannot upset children’s stomachs, as “dosing” is so apt to do. Originally designed and first used largely for children's colds, this better external method gradually spread as one enthusiastic mother told another. Years of actual use also proved it equally effective for the colds of grown-ups. Today the w'bole trend of medical practice Is away from needless “dosing” and Vicks—a household word in America—is used in more than 60 countries abroad. The ever-growing demand for Vicks is shown in its familiar slogan, expressing the number of jars used yearly. First announced when Vicks reached “17 Million Jars Yearly”—later raised to “21 Million’* —the figures are again being changed, as there are now “Over 26 Million Jars Used Yearly.”—Advertisement.
