CARAWAY HURLS LIAR CHARGE IN CANNON PROBE Charges of Immunity to Bishop False, Asserts Inquiry Chief. Bv f'nited Press WASHINGTON, June 19.—Chairman Caraway of the senate lobby committee declared in a senate sr-’ech today that any one who says the committee grantee, immunity to Bishop James Canr.on Jr., when it failed to press ite examination of him, “is a willful, common and malicious liar." Caraway, who admitted his speech was a breach of parliamentary language, said the same description applies to any one who says he had changed his position in order to exempt Cannon. The Arkansas senator offered to defend his position in the senate or out of it. The committee refused to go into Cannon's anti-Smith activities and his handling of the unaccounted

I “The same rule was invoked," Caraway assertfd, “to protect ! Chairman Huston of the Repubi lican national committee and Chairman Raskob of the Democratic | committee. Henry Curran of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, and Josephus Daniels. “Certain people who want to say Bishop Cannon was granted immunity are making an unqualified and deliberate falsehood and the man who says it knows he Is a common liar. I claim no immunity for that statement. It may be unparliamentary, but I say it. “I don’t know where the line divides church and state and I* will not be a party to coercing any religious group in doing what it conceives to be its conscientious duty." Caraway said he had refused .o go into activities of the Catholic Welfare Council here on the sane grounds, although he had received application for such an inquiry from persons who charged the council with “pernicious ■ political activities.” There were 79,725 marr ages performed in Illinois during the year 1928, as compared with 80 222 in 1927.

REFUSES ACTION TO STOP SALE OF ‘CHEAP GAS’ His Office Interested Only in Collection of Tax, Says Bobbitt. Although he intends continuing warfare on "bootleg gasoline,’ State Auditor Archie Bobbitt declared today his office will not lend itself to any movement to drive so-called “cut rate" gasoli ie dealers out of business. “They can sell gasoline as cheaply as they care to, as long as the 4- ; cents a gallon tax is paid,’’ Bobbitt i cfcolared, commenting on an attack : made on his department by J. Glenn ! Harris, veteran Lake county repre- ] sentative. Urge More Auditors Harris appeared before the state budget committee to urge more field auditors to halt the gasoline bootlegging in northern Indiana. The budget committee authorized Bobbitt to employ as many men as he i sees fit at salaries not to exceed | $2,500. There are two at present, ; cne of them being Bruce Cooper, whose alleged neligence Harris criti- | cized. Bobbitt received $25,000 in settle- ! ment for back tax from the River- ; ;ire Oil Company, Hammond, Ind., he announced today. Cleaning Up North He said that Leland K. Fislibaek, state gasoline tax collector in his office, and Earl Stroup, deputy at-torney-general, are cleaning up the northern Indiana “bootleg gas” sitution and he doesn’t intend “hiring an army.” Harris said he took the matter up because an effort will be made by legitimate oil dealers to reduce the tax unless bootlegging ceases. Harris, a lawyer, denied complaining oil companies are his clients, NAME SEWER ENGINEER John W. Steams Is Appointed to Supervise City Projects. John W. Stearns, engineer, today was appointed by the sanitary board to supervise construction of the Broad Ripple and Pogue’s run sewer project. Salary is $225 a month. J.

LIQUOR LEAGUE RACKET MAKES DEBUT IN CITY Solicitors Sought to Get Members at Rate of 10 Cents a Person. i While a dozen eager-eyed applicants sat about on the bed and chairs in a downtown hotel room and others seeking jobs “paying $35 a week" waited in the hall. F. O. Brown, Kansas City, representative of the Liberal League of American, Inc., today initiated Hoosiers in the newest “racket." Husky voiced. Brown explained he represents the Liberal League of America. An elaborate prospectus and membership roll explains purposes and aims of the organization thus: To establish national, state and city organizations calling for modification of the prohibition law and to petition congress for government control of liquor, impart information to the members regarding the dry situation, put out publicity, employ counsel and exert every effort to change the law. Pay 10-Cent Fee And last, but not least in importance, every person who desires to become a member must pay 10 cents as a membership fee. In return he receives a card which can be exhibited as proof of membership. The green prospectus, however, does not say that the 10 cents is divided up as follows: The solicitor gets 6 cents; the city manager 1 cent; the state manager gets I cent and 2 cents goes to general maintenance. Brown declared that at present inhere is no state or city manager, but that when things get well under way he will appoint these chieftains. According to the prospectus, J. S. Marley is president; Leo J. Kelly, secretary, and R. L. Blume is treasurer. * All are of Kansas City, where headquarters are located in 918 Scarritt building. Business Bureau Investigates Asa proof of the legitimacy of the organization Brown advances, what he says is a copy of a report of the St. Louis Better Business Bureau which sets forth the nature, of the organization and declared: “Nothing contained herein is intended to recommend or condemn this company, but it is furnished merely in order to help you exercise your owm best judgment.” The Indianapolis Better Business Bureau is conducting an investigation. Every solicitor, who gets 6 cents for each name signed on the dotted line must have some business man sign a bond for sls to insure the turning over of the roll of members. Browp huskily tells how difficult it sometimes is to get some of the solicitors to turn in the names of the members and incidentally the 4 cents per name the organizers get. One applicant asked if it was all right to solicit members in speakeries and saloons and he was given carte blanche. Brown showed a newspaper which declared there now are more than 400,000 members; which represents $24,000 paid to solicitors and $14,000 to the organizers.

The new pumps which were started Sunday when the pool was dedicated have not been adjusted properly, it was said. Joe Sullivan, swimming supervisor, and recreation director David Kilgore conferred with Frank Hunter, architect, who supervised the pool construction, and ordered the elorinatien machine kept in operation eight hours before opening of the pool.
