DETROIT MA YOR BATTLE FEATURES MICHIGAN PRIMARY
350,000 WILL GO TO POLLS IN CITY TUESDAY Hectic G. 0. P. Stumping Ends as Voters Hear Final Pleas. GOVERNOR FIGHT HOT Couzens Is Challenged in Bitter Struggle for Senate Seat. Bu United Press DETROIT, Sept. B.—Michigan’s hectic Republican primary came to a close today with politicians making their final pleas to voters over the radio, at ward meetings and through newspapers. In Detroit, however, the state races were overshadowed by the mayoralty fight brought about through the recall in July of Mayor Charles Bowles. It is expected that in Detroit, more than 350,000 will go to the polls Tuesday impelled principally through the bitter fight four of the five mayoralty candidates have waged. Outstate, however, the contest for Governor holds the chief interest. Fred W. Green, finishing his second term, is not a candidate for reelection, but he has injected himself ;nto the fight through his active support of Wilber M. Brucker, attorneygeneral. Alexander W. Groesbeck, three times Governor, and Judge J. Jeffries, Detroit, are the other two candidates. Attack’s Green’s Policies Groesbeck, old enemy of Green, drew the Governor into active support of Brucker when he began attacking Green’s administration charging Brucker would continue its policies if elected. Nomination on the Republican ticket virtually is tantamount to election in Michigan. Democratic candidates are unopposed for nomination. In the senatorial race, Senator Couzens is opposed by Chase Osborn, Saulte Ste. Marie, former Governor. Osborn has made a spirited fight, challenging Couzens’ “Republicanism” and declaring him “the richest man in the senate and the poorest senator.” In the congressional races several incumbents are unopposed, but in the Sixth district, which is part of Detroit, a hot wet and dry battle is on. Prohibition Major Issue Grant M. Hudson, incumbent and former superintendent of the Michigan Anti-Saloon League has for his foremost opponent, Seymour Person, an active wet. Prohibition also is a major issue in the Seventh district, where Louis Crampton, incumbent and a dry, is opposed by Jesse P. Wolcott. In the city election, four of the five mayoralty candidates are conceded a chance to win. Only Phillip Raymond, Socialist, is given slight consideration. The other four candidates are: Mayor Bowles, seeking vindication after being recalled by a majority of 31,000; George Engel, veteran city employe, who has the backing of the Detroit News and the Free Press; Judge Frank Murphy, who resigned from the recorder’s court bench to make the race, and John Smith, former mayor. Murphy is backed by the Detroit Times. TIME SAVED BY JUDGE Four Cases Heard in One Trial at Terre Haute. Bu Timet Soecial TERRE HAUTE, Ind.. Sept. B.

GEN. COXEY IN CITY, ON CRUSADE TOUR
General Jacob S. Coxey at 76 still is out fighting the battle of the unemployed, but he now uses motor equipment and such modern devices as the radio. He is touring the country advocating the same plan of eliminating interst on public debt as he advocated when he led the famous Coxey's army to Washington in 1894. Today he visited Indianapolis, en route to his home in Massillon, O.
Doughty Warrior Continues Fight for Elimination of Interest on Debt. BY DANIEL M. KIDNEY How Indiana might aid its unemployed in cities, as well as bring about drought relief, without going into debt, was pointed out by General Jacob S. Coxey, famed leader of Coxey’s army of the unemployed, during a visit to Indianapolis today. The plan advocated would necessitate passage of the bill to nationalize credit which Coxey eight times has had introduced into congress. It is the same idea which he advocated to solve unemployment problems when he led his army of 5,000 to Washington back in 1894. At the age of 76, General Coxey still is touring the country, advocating his idea. Predicts Passage or Violence “It eventually will be adopted or' there will be civil war in this country,” he predicted today.' “The people are not going to stand idly by and see their homes and farms confiscated by taxation to meet interest payments r governmental debts.” Briefly, t w Coxey plan is to have local and s„ate governments issue bonds for all public improvements for deposit with the federal government in return for legal tender. A 1 per cent discount would be made to repay the federal government for the cost of printing the money. The bonds would cover a twenty-five-year period and be non-inter-est bearing. They could be issued in periods of emergency, like the present one, and thus eliminate unemployment, Coxey explained. “We are paying interest on state, city, county and school bonds at the rate of $35,000,000 a week,” Coxey declared. “We have a $15,000,000,000 debt through these mediums. It is taking an interest toll of $750,000,000 annually, which could be paid to labor. Billions Paid in Interest “Since we marched in 1894 on Washington, $12,000,000,000 in interest has been paid by our government. Had my plan been adopted at that time, this payment would have been made instead to labor and profitable production.” Coxey said Henry Ford was able to raise wages during the depression and decrease the cost of his cars because he has no interest payments to meet. The government in similar position could eliminate the depression overnight,, he claims. “Ford told me that my plan will | not be adopted because it’s too honj est,” he declared. “It would mean ! real government of the people, by I the people and for the people inI stead of the present government of j the banks, by the banks and for the bankers.” - Six Dead as Traffic Toll of Week-End Week-end traffic accidents in Indiana claimed at least six lives and injured morfe than a dozen persons. Several of the injured are in a critical condition and the death toll is expected to mount. In Indianapolis, two elderly persons were struck and killed by automobiles. Leslie La Rue, 72, died of an internal hemorrhage that resulted from injuries received when struck as he was crossing a street in front of his home. Mrs. Josie Jackson, 70, died almost immediately after being struck by an automobile as she and her husband were ! walking home Saturday night. The | husband suffered minor injuries. Brownsburg Man Killed | A head-on crash near Martinsville resulted in the death of Carl Schneck, 28, Brownsburg, and serious injuries to four persons. The accident occurred when the Schneck car crashed into an auto which was attempting to pass a truck and had swferved out into the highway. Skidding on wet pavement which ended when his car crashed against a telephone pole cost the life of Donald Horner, 20, Holansburg, O. The accident occurred near Richmond. Collision Fatal The crash of two cars, both without lights, resulted in the death of Clarence Riley, 20, of Youngs Creek, and injuries to three persons. Riley was driving on the State Road 56 near West Baden when his car crashed into one driven by an unidentified man. A cross-roads crash near Kokomo was fatal to Mrs. Mary Vamau, 75, Tipton. The car in which Mrs. Varnau was riding was struck by another automobile which had come onto the main highway from a side road. While en route to the scene of the accident, a Kokomo police car was crowded from the road, turned over, and resulted in injuries to two policemen. ■— —— Reckless Driving Is Charged James Walker, 46, Negro, 829 South Capitol avenue, was held today on reckless driving charges, after his auto is said to have sideswiped another auto and crashed into a street car Sunday night-
