G. 0. P. CHIEFS SEEK CANDIDATE TO ‘SAVE' PARTY Fifield. Heading Ticket, May Cause Republicans to Lose Election. BY BEN STERN “Give us this day a good candidate for secretary of state —some one who will offset the damage done to the party by Otto G. Fifield’s Incumbency." This is the prayer of Republican leaders in Indiana who have party interests at heart. They rapidly are realizing a ticket only is as strong as its head and, therefore, with Fifield heading the list, G. O. P. chances for victory in the fall, are, at present, regarded weak. Members of the Republican state committee, even at this early date, see a pall on the horizon. Frantic scrambling for a possible candidate is seen everywhere. Orr and Knapp Boomed Two names are being mentioned for secretary of state. They are: Lawrence F. Orr of Columbus, chief examiner of the state board of accounts, and James M. Knapp of Hagerstown, speaker of the house in the 1929 legislature. By his vigorous investigation of mal-admmistration of officials, particularly in Lake county, Orr has won the respect of both Republicans and Democrats. Knapp, by his directorship of the house also has gained w ide esteem. Democrats are hoping Fifield will be renominated, asserting there will be a basis upon which to attack his record. A third section of the Republican party, headed by Bert PTiller, manager of the Leslie campaign in 1928, is insisting a candidate be selected from southern Indiana, specifically “the pocket,” in order to gain strength in state aid counties that are dissatisfied with the administration. Wive heart Faces Fight The bankruptcy of state aid schools is expected to weigh heavily against Roy P. Wiseheart, state superintendent of public instruction, when he seeks renomination. Despite protestations that he Is not a candidate. Roy Roudebush, assistant to Wisehart, is said to be building bis fences. But dissatisfaction with the entire office is so great that probably no one there will be selected. Lemuel Pittenger, head of the Ball Teachers college, Muncie, is receiving much mention for the nomination. Pittenger made a strong race for the speakership of the house in 1927 against Leslie and is regarded highly. A dearth of candidates for the Republican nominations for county posts is seen. Uhl Seeks Candidates Every one is waiting for developments in the anti-Coffin fight Albert Uhl. president of the Marion Club, is scanning lists of Republicans to select good candidates for precinct, committeemen. Martin M. Hugg, G. O. P. county chairman, has repeatedly declared the organization expects to put able men into the field in an effort to win support for the organization, which, under the Coffin banner, has been blackened and viewed with disfavor. Indications are that Judson Stark. Marion county prosecutor, may be the organization's candidate for renomination despite his former differences with Coffin. One proof of thus, it Is said, is that the county commissioners approved increases for Stark's aid. after vetoing them last year.

Booze Drinking Crime, lowa Senator Thinks

EDITOB’NS NOTE—Thl* 1 the fifth of x srrif< about prominent congressional leaders in the prohibition controversy. BY PAUL R. MALLON I'nited Pres* Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Jan. 31—Prominent prohibition advocates In Washington are inclined to wink at drinking at private social functions, which they attend. Few government officials worry about the private habits of their brothers in office. The late Wayne B. W’heeler, dynamic force of the Anti-Saloon League, once said he did not care how congressmen drank if they voted right. There has been only one congressman who publicly has told of private drinking. He is Senator SmiWi Wildman Brookhart, the lowa independent Republican, w ho is promising now to tell some more in connection with the present prohibition controversy, which he helped to stir up. Brookhart Is proud of his unique reputation, and, though it is not known generally, he worked long to attain it. “To me liquor Is a poison, and drinking is a crime,” he says. “There can be nc confidences w T ith me so far as poison and crime are concerned.” The lowan held the same view as county attorney of Washington county, lowa, twenty years ago, when he overturned the politicians, bootleggers and whisky dealers. He stood by the same principle when he exposed and reported officers in his own regiment of the National Guard for drinking. They were his triends in his own home town, but he reported them ’o his general, and they were punished. National attention was drawn to his attitude last September, when he told the senate and the country that liquor was served to senatoi-s at a dinner given by a New 7 York broker, Walter Fahy, in a hotel here in 1926. r Although little has been heard from him in recent months, he, like Senator Borah of Idaho, has been accumulating quietly information

harmless as the- recipe on the wrapper reads. If you see Chas. H. Fletcher's signature, it is genuine Castoria. It is harmless to the smallest infant; doctors will tell you so. You can tell from the recipe on the wrapper how mild it is, and how good for little systems. But continue with Castoria until a child is grown. *
