BROUN’S DRIVE ’■ FOR CONGRESS STIRS GOTHAM Scores of Notables Rally to Support Campaign of ' Noted Columnist. BY GILBERT SWAN, NEA Service Writer || NEW YORK, A\jg. 27.—That very 1 superior columnist, Mons. Heywood jlßroun, in his race for congress, is fjlproviding Manhattan with a politinovelty which is likely to dis- * tract crowds from the theaters and pack the political halls with audiences accustomed to paying $4 40 lor far lesser attractions. Only one who sits at the New York ringside can appreciate the possibilities that such a campaign holds. If it is carried on according to its full potentialities, no Broadway production will be able to compete with Broun’s all-star cast. He has on his committee, for instance. every one from Eva Le Gallienc, the actress-manager, to Georgie Jessel. He has Irving Berlin coming forth with an announcejf ment that he will write a campaign song. Woollcott Backs Him He has the sharp-witted Alexander Woollcott, wicldcr of a most trenchent pen, ready to take the ttump. All the Algonquinites, those peerless ana enshrined representatives of the arts, from poets to playwrights, are behind him. In fact the Algonquin, itself, has become Broun's headquarters. Fancy, then, a political rally participated in by Groucho Marx, Don>ald Ogden Stewart, Corey Ford and a dozen other headliners of the stage and writting world. To say nothing of Broun himself, who wields a wicked argument. Nowhere in politics can one find a parallel. And in New York, where politics are pretty much cut-and-dried, the piquant touch is appreciated. Papers Oppose Broun Most of the papers have not been editorially friendly to this candi- , dacy. Tile World, Broun’s paper | before he went over to the Telegram and the Scripps-Howard forces, has commented something to the effect i that a seat in congress is nothing to clown about; that a columnist is much better without political alliances and that a confirmed poker player is quite outside the pale. And while there will be many a wisecrack—and good ones—injected into the fight, while there will be kidding and all that, Broun is serious. The unemployment situation, for which he staged a benefit last winter. will be a campaign issue. •FIELDING FLIER’ FINED Aviator Is Ordered to Keep Away From Louisville Ball Park.

Peru’s Ousted Dictator Once Before Driven Out

BY THOMAS L. STOKES, United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.—Downfall of President Augusta B. Leguia of Peru brought back to President Hoover and those who accompanied him on his South American goodwill trip, two.years ago, recollections of the dynamic little ruler as they saw him at that time, in the midst of the brilliant reception he had prepared for his American visitors. Leguia was in the ascendency then. A nervous, spry, well-groomed diminutive fellow, lie pranced about from one elaborate function to another at which he and his nation were hosts to President Hoover. AH aSout were suggestions of his power—the deference with which he was treated, the cheers inspired by his appearances, the snap and precision of the gay and well disciplined military outfits which paraded up and dowp the streets of old Lima. Not First Time He Fell The directing genius of .that day now has fallen, and not for the first time. He was driven from the country in 1913, the victim of a coup d’etat similar to that which ousted him tills time. But he returned in 1919, after living four years in London, to assume even greater power. The man who has been called the “Roqsevelt of South America” and the “Mussolini of Peru,” stumbled into politics. Leguia was an insurance agent, representing a New York company in Lima., Adept at finance, he was appointed chancellor of the exchequer. In 1908 he became president.. In 1918 Leguia was saved from his enemies only by hurrying to a tug boat which took him to Panama, Upon his return to Lima from London in 1919 he was elected to the presidency, which he held until the revolution Sunday. Program Too Expansive Leguia’s dream of making Peru a modern state in every particular finally brought his downfall. His program, which included im-

proved education, irrigation, sanita-j tion, aviation and highways, apparently was too expansive. Accumulating expenditures for public works and improvements w6re not offset by increases in governmental revenues. Lately Peru has been affected seriously by the world-wide depression, and Leguia’s enemies were able to get the upper hand. LONGMEMORY BRINGSARREST Kokomo Man Is Nabbed on 6-Year-Old Check, j Edward Johnson, 62, of Kokomo, took a “vindicating” auto ride to Franklin Tuesday night before he was locked up in city prison, and today he faces a charge of issuing a fraudulent check. Johnson walked into the Wilson Jewelry Company, 114 North Illinois street, Tuesday night and Hyman* Marker, an employe, accused him of being the man who passed a bad check in the store six years ago. After a discussion Johnson is said to have admitted he had passed the check and said that if Marker would drive him to Franklin he would make the check good. Marker complied, but no one could, be found there who wanted to put up the money. Johnson remained in the car and was driven back to the city prison by Marker. According to police, Johnson confessed and also said he escaped from prison in Little Rock, Ark., several years ago.

SORORITY GIRL AND BUSINESS MANARESLAIN Motive for Murder at Resort Beach Sought by Police of Two Nations. By United Press ENSENADA, Lower Cal., Mexico, Aug. 27.—A motive for the brutal slaying of Francis Conlon, 24, Monrovia (Cal.) business man, and his fiancee, Lois Marion Kentle, Los Angeles sorority girl, was sought by Mexican and American authorities at this resort today. Bodies of the couple, stabbed to death by an unknown assailant, were found on the beach here Tuesday. The couple apparently were strolling along the beach when their slayer crept up on them. Mr. and Mrs. John De Wild of Vista, Cal., who started for Ensenada with the young couple, were located today by San Diego authorities. They reported they turned back below Tia Juana on Monday m the belief that Conlon and his fiancee also had returned. Conlon and the girl were identified by papers found in Conlon’s pockets and by a book half in the sand. .The book was”“The End of the Honeymoon.” Mrs. William Kentle, mother of the girl, said the young couple had planned to be married. The port captain of Ensenada discovered their mutilated bodies, sprawled twenty feet fropi a tent they had pitched on the beach. Relatives said they knew of no secret enemies the couple might have had. . Conlon’s aunt Miss Mary Moran of Monrovia, who reared the young man since the death of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Conlon of Worcester, Mass., said the couple might have married secretly last Saturday.

SCOTS LIKE CHICAGO Visitors Get Six Rides for Price of One. Bv United Press CHICAGO, Aug. 27.—Chicago, where the world has been led to think a gangster’s bullet is merely a part of daily lives of residents, isn’t such a bad city after all, a delegation of Scotchmen decided when they discovered six can ride in a taxicab for the price of one. Peter H.

He is internationally recognized for his profound knowledge of world political events. “So long as the spirit of fascism continues to inspire and excite the principal nations of Europe,” declared Count Karolyi, “so long will danger of war persist. “The only nation solid economically in Europe today is France, and so France does not want war. “But those nations which are not sound, and Germany is in the forefront, will not remain tranquil as

What can you expect when one beggar puts his hand into the pocket of another beggar?” As an end to staving off another war in Europe, Count Karolyi suggests France should hand back a few of Germany's lost colonies, thus appeasing. Germans Who preach and encourage the idea of a war of revenge. “This would lead the way to a Franco-German alliance and would help to stabilize the present shaky situation, the Hungarian ex-presi-dent said. “France would lose little in handing back those colonics.
