THURMAN’S BID FOR GOVERNOR NEARLY READY Watson Group Support Is Expected to Be Given Committee Member. COFFINISM FACES FIGHT Ludlow and Nejdl Among Those Mentioned for New Berths. BY BEN STERN Within a few days M. Bert Thurman, Republican national committeeman, and so far regarded as one of the outstanding contenders for the G. O. P. nomination for Governor in 1932, will begin building his fences. Thurman, who virtually heads the Watson organization in Indiana, Is prepared to make a definite bid for the nomination and his friends declare he will go into the convention with the undivided support of the Watson organization. This Includes all except three counties in Indiana, it is claimed. These counties are Marion, where as yet the discredited George Coffin machine holds the reins and is pledged to the banner of Senator Arthur R. Robinson; Jackson county, where there has been some insurgency, and Vanderburg county, where although the county chairman, Philip Gould, is a Watson man, he can not control the organization. Disliked Primary Although Thurman announced as a candidate early in 1928 he did not enter the race, largely, it is said, bemuse he did not like to run in the primary. Now that there is no primary for any state office Thurman Has Indicated he will make the race. It Is expected everywhere that James E. Watson, who will be a candidate for renomination for enator, will throw his strength to his loyal associate and thus Insure Thurman’s nomination. But the liberal element in the Republican party, including the 1912 Progressives, is expressing a desire for the nomination of Frederick R. Landis, togansport editor. Fight on Coffinism It is an Interesting feature of the week's activities that, a preliminary step to throw off the yoke of Coffinism was made Monday night by the Irvington Republican Club, which arranged for a rally of new Eleventh district precinct and organization leaders at the clubrooms April 6. Representative Albert Vestal, Anderson, will be the principal speaker. Anti-Coffinism leaders are expected to propose at this meeting that the state committee provide a rule that the precinct committeemen in that part of Marion county within the Eleventh district elect a chairman who shall sit in on district councils and help select that chairman. In this way the Coffin county chairman could be dropped overboard with as little trouble as possible, it is pointed out. Representative Louis Ludlow, who under the new boundary lines resides In the Twelfth district, has not indicated whether or not he will move to Irvington, his home years ago, and thus become a candidate for the nomination and election from the Eleventh. If he does he will have to make the primary race against Dr. W. H. Larrabee, New Palestine, new Sixth district representative. Indiana was circularized this week with copies of a Columbus <o.> newspaper containing a long biography of Ludlow and a story hich indicated he will seek the Democratic nomination for senator. Ludlow Opposed Ludlow's chances for this nomination are very slight, old guard Democrats declare. “Any man whose Democracy isn’t strong enough to tell him how to vote on the tariff and whose identification with party activities in Indiana is of such recent origin does not, as yet, deserve the nomination to this high office," one party leader declared. Liberals in the party also resent. Ludlow's spurning of the progresive meeting in Washington before tie was even invited. An editorial in the Lafayette Courier-Journal, published by Henry Marshall, mentor of Governor Harry G. Leslie, declared, in opposition to all existing evidence, that R. Earl Peters, Democratic state chairman, will be a candidate for the nomination for senator with Paul V. McNutt as his running mate for Governor. Democrats over the state decried the editorial and labeled it as a deliberate attempt to muddy the • waters. IMMIGRATION SLASHED KS Per Cent Shut Off as Job Aid. White House Announces.

Crops on Vacant Lots to Be Aim of Committees in State. ; Long-time planning for uneml ployment relief in Indiana was un- ! der discussion today at a conference between Fred C. Croxton, midwest representative of the Hoover unemployment commission, and Dr. John Hewitt, secretary of the Governor’s conference for unemployment relief. Plans, which Hewitt says will be adopted in Indiana, will emphasize the planting of small crops and vegetables in towns and cities to be harvested by the unemployed, with the idea both of current consumption and winter storage. This move already has been given approval in various states which he has visited, Croxton declared. Indiana Not So Hard Hit “Distress in Indiana is not so great as in many other sections,” he said. “Dr. Hewitt reports that things look very promising for spring improvement.” Hewitt pointed out that Muncie already has organized a Community Garden Association to handle just such projects as were outlined by Croxton. Organization of such movement in Indianapolis awaits appointment of a committee by A. Kiefer Mayer, chairman of the Chamber of Commerce Made Work Committee, Inc. Vacant lots will be pressed into service, as was done in war days, and the unemployed will be provided j free seed to plant and cultivate. Croxton anticipates that in most instances persons unemployed in small towns, who have ground to cultivate, will be able to finance the seed purchase themselves. Advice to Be Given A representative of the extension j division of the United States de- ! partment of agriculture will be asj signed to the state committee to give planting advice wheever rej quired, he declared, j Corns, beans and potatoes, all i vegetables which can be kept for I next winter without difficulty, will be urged for planting, Croxton pointed out. “We hope in this w r ay to relieve | mining and industrial areas, where things are very bad,” he said. “This program .will be doubleedged in its effect. It will provide food and at the same time Improve morale among the jobless, many of whom are without w'ork for the first time through no fault of their own.” INDIANAPOLIS IS FIFTH Awarded High Position in Honor Cities for Fire Protection.

STATE POLICE PLAN STUDIED Substations Will Be Set Up Throughout State. Plans to create a series of substations throughout the state to handle the forty more state police which will be put on when new budget funds become available are being drafted by Chief Grover Garrett of the state police department. Definite decision as to where these substations will be located have not yet been made, Garrett explained. Each subdivision will be equipped with a telephone, and those in northern Indiana will have radio communication with the Michigan state police department, he said. This was arranged when Garrett and Robert Codd, assistant secretary of state, visited the Michigan department recently. It was decided to base the Indiana setup of substations on the Michigan plan. Under a law passed by the 1931 legislature, Secretary of State Frank Mayr Jr. is permitted to double the present police force and its scope will be increased to checking overweight trucks. Attempt to make the department bipartisan failed. All new appointees will be Democrats.

Thompson contending that his presence In the cabinet was proof that the administration was friendly with Capone. Since that time Serritella and several other city appointees tendered their resignations to Thompson, to take effect when the mayor wished. The story as told by the Tribune follows: Mrs. Kub told the jury that Seirltella and James W. Breen, first assistant corporation counsel, controlled police activities in the loop and nearby wards and that they directed when the police could make raids and when they must allow the district to be wide open Captain Gets “Told” Mrs. Kub testified that Captain Willard Malone of the loop district complained last December to Breen, asking “Is Serritella captain or am I?” This question was asked after Malone was reprimanded for making raids when the loop was supposed to be “open” because “the administration wanted it.” Malone went to Breen and asked, “Am I to stand for everything?” when the district was “open” at Serritella’s orders. Mrs. Kub said that Breen told Malone: “You go along with Serritella ” One Officer Benched One police captain, Daniel Gilbert, was benched because he “refused to go along with Serritella,” Mrs. Kub replied. The Tribune said that, according to its informant, several members the mayor s cabinet and several police officers were to be called before the grand jury as a result of Mrs. Kub’s testimony. The grand jury was appointed especially to investigate rumors of graft among police and politicians. MRS. KIPP.
