SON OF PERU'S EX-PRESIDENT TO FACE TRIAL Thirty Others Are Ordered Arrested; Report Leguia Seriously 111. BY GESFORD F. FINE United Tress Staff Correspondent LIMA. Peru, Aug. 27.—Thirty ! prominent persons, including some | foreigners, were ordered arrested to- ! day as the Peruvian military gov- i ernment prepared to bring to account those who profited by the eleven-year dictatorship of former | President Augusto B. Leguia. The namps of the persons wanted j were not made public, nor the na- j tionalities of the foreigners. Their j identities probably will be known i only as they are rounded up and brought before the representatives ; of the newly formed government to answer to whatever charges may be i placed against them. Leguia, the indomitable figure who successfully governed Peru for j eleven years, meanwhile lay in a I terious condition aboard the Peruvian warship Admiral Grau in Callao harbor. Leguia is afflicted with uremia, an ailment from which he has been a chronic sufferer for the past lour years. Visited Four Times by Doctor The deposed president, now virtually a prisoner of the military government, was visited four times Tuesday by Dr. Donald McCornack, one of the directors of the BritishAmerican hospital here. What disposition the military government intends to make of Leguia still remained in doul The governing committee had assured the students of the country, who supported the revolution, that he would not be allowed to leave Peruvian custody without the consent of the people. Young Leguia Faces Trial Later reports from reliable sources said that diplomats from twenty nations had informed the government that their nations wished Leguia full liberty to d' .-art. Such strong prf jure may lead to a change in t-.e government’s plans and Leguia yet may be spared a trial for alleged misdeeds while in office. It was ‘believed, however, that in any case, Juan Leguia, the former president’s son, certainly would be tried on the grounds that he had profited from monopolies and other sources owing to his position. The younger Leguia is aboard the Admiral Grau with his father, WOMAN ASKS $20,000 AS BROKEN LEG PRICE Suit at Connersville Against Gymnasium and School City.

Drought Solved in Russia by Irrigation, Leader Tells Americans. BY ARCH STEINEL Drought, with its attendant evils of high prices and agrarian depression, may be a “bogeyman” for Indiana farmers, but in Soviet Russia it’s solved with one word—“irrigation.” _ That’s what The Times’ interviewer was told today by two representatives of the Communistic government and their trade corporation attache visiting this city in the interest of the Soviet’s canning industry.

Professor Michael Grossman of the Odessa university, Odessa, U. S. S. R.; Fritz Anger, chemical engineer of Moscow, and J. A. Goncharoff of the Amtorg Trading Corporation, New York City, are visiting this city and the state’s canning industries under the guidance of Frank H. Langenskamp, president of the F. H. Langsenkamp Company, coppersmiths and brass finishers, 130 East Georgia street. Safeguarded by Ditches With Goncharoff as an interpreter, Professor Grossman explained that although Soviet Russia had had no drought, the state farms of the union were being safeguarded against the calamity by irrigation ditches similar to those in use in California. “The commission visiting your city is interested principally in the canning industry. We are inspecting factories and contemplate the purchase of additional machinery for our canneries,” Gonchariff explained. Tomato canning is drawing the major interest of the Soviet sojourn in Indiana. Extent of Trade Given The extent of the Soviet trade with Inidarrapolis through the Amtorg company was given by Langsenkamp, who says, “Last year the Soviet purchased more than $1,500,000 of tomato canning machinery from our company. They plan twelve large canning factories in the union, the equal of the largest in this country.” “We hope through this survey to build canneries sufficient to satisfy our domestic consumption and at the same time increase our truck farming to supply those canneries,” Goncharoff declared. The commission visited the Columbia Conserve Company, the Van Camp Company, and the Langsenkamp offices today. Must Enlarge Plant Before leaving on a trip to canneries at Greenwood, Columbus, Austin and Vincennes with the commission, Langsenkamp announced his company would move from its present quarters to the old Prest-O-Lite building on South street. “Increased business, including orders that may come from the Soviet government’s huge canning plant program, necessitates our seeking larger quarters within the next sixty days,” Langsenkamp said. The Soviet commission will leave for California after the tour of state factories.
