G. 0. P. SLUMP IN WEST HAILED HOOVER BARRIER Pride of Chief Executive’s Own State on Wan, Says Shouse. Ry Scrifivn-Hounr<i \fwpanrr Alliance WASHINGTON, May 9.—Waning enthusiasm in the G. O. P. ranks in usually safe Republican states of the Far West makes this terlrtory first-class fighting ground" for the Democratic party, according to Jouett Shouse. chairman of the party's national executive committee, who is just back from the coast. "This fact Impressed me particularly in Mr. Hoover's own adopted state of California." Shouse said. At first that state’s Republican leaders felt a great pride in their adopted son. But in talking with some of these men I noticed that pride had given way to distress, then dismay, finally to resentment and utter distrust. The feeling was that he has shown a total ineptness to meet the country’s needs.” Shouse said the big growers and canners who expected to profit from the high tariff are awakening to the fact that the tariff is destroying their best foreign markets. Thev feel that they have been handed a gold brick, he said. Everywhere in the west Shouse reported bitter resentment against the working of the prohibition law. This was particularly vocal in the northwest, he said, and chiefly in Senator Wesley Jones’ state of Washington, where the Republican organization is in control of modificationists.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SPIES SCATTER FRENCH BORDER FORTSECRETS! Protection Plans Bared to European Powers by Alien Labor. By United Pretn PARIS, May 9.—Every trench,! every machine gun pillbox, underground hospital or barracks, and! strategic roadway In France's great wall along the eastern and southeastern frontiers, opposite Italy and Germany, has been known to the: general staffs of half a dozen nations of Europe as fast as the French engineers pour their concrete. Europe’s greatest spy organizations, keyed up to the largest task since the war, has seen to it that the secret frontier organizations are no lnoger anybody’s secret. French police have been spending the last week seeking to learn just how much the Strasbourg spies reported to their foreign employers and they have been astonished" at! their findings. Plans Disappear The police learned that of 700 laborers engaged in building the major unit of the defense system on| the plateau of Augevillers, only: eleven were French. The others were German, Italian, Polish and Russian, and there was no control over them. When starting work the foreign workers were asked to surrender their passports. But dozens have suddenly left the job and disappeared without asking either for their pay or their passports. Police learned of another who earned $22 a week and spent twice that much every Sunday in the cases of Thionville. Police went through the fortifications in process of building, at night, and found men everywhere who disappeared in the darkness at their approach. Plans of the fortifications were handed from one laborer to another. Many plans disappeared entirely. Doubt Wisdom of Continuing Police concluded that spies of of many nations had worked on the fortifications and disappeared with valuable knowledge which has found its way into the files of many intelligence services. Many French military men question the wisdom of continuing the costly undertaking, pointing out that half of the value of the “great wall" was in the secret nature of its arrangement and defenses. Ten thousand workmen have been at work o nthe great chain of dev sense and the undertaking is to last five years and cost more than SIOO,000,000. Four times in little more than a century France was invaded from the northeast, and the wall was intended to hold back invaders pending mobilization of the French I army.

BRIAND SCORES GREAT VICTORY Election to Presidency of France Seems Assured. BY RALPH HEINZEN, United Press Staff Correspondent PARIS, May 9.—Aristide Briand’s | eloquence repulsed a bitter attack |on his conciliatory foreign policy ' today and won an overwhelming parliamentary victory, which may, paradoxically, end the foreign min- ; ister’s long career at the quai d'orsay. Briand, with the word "peace” on his lips, appeared certain of election to the presidency of France next week. The chamber of deputies heard j him defend his foreign policy in a ; stirring reply to his political critics and voted confidence in the government’s foreign policy, 430 to 52. A second vote, 470 to none, condemned the Austro-German tariff union agreement as detrimental to international understanding. Election to the presidency, however, would remove Briand from I the foreign office for the first time | in six years (except for brief ~4nter- ' vals after cabinet crises) and would diminish the influence of one of j the most prominent figures in Euro- ; pean politics since the World war. The power of the French president is restricted, although Briand still would be able to exert indirec. influence by virtue of his selection of premiers and otherwise. His most likely successor would be Andre Tardieu, former premier and once pupil of the late Georges One of the largest power shovels ever built is being used in Germany to load cars. It is more than eight feet high and can handle 850 cubic yards of coal an hour.

The fog blanketed the entire New Jersey coast and reached as far north as Boston. Automobile and railway traffic was seriously affected and no large ships were moved in New York harbor. Coast guardsmen and marine police were searching Norton Point, near Segate, N. Y., for a mysterious | ship, apparently in distress. Residents near the shore said a whistle j had been sounded at regular in- j tervals since 4a. m. They reported j the whistle as sounding like that on' a large liner and said <the sound came from just a short distance off shore. The only collision reported was that of the Lloyd Sabaudo liner Conte Biancomano and the Furness liner Eastern Prince, off Ambrose lightship. The liner was proceeding down stream slowly when it collided with the freighter. INVENTOR’S RITES SET William L. Egry, 66, to Be Buried at Hamilton, O.

FALL RELIES ON HIS FRIENDS TO GAIN CLEMENCY *1 Have Confidence in Them’ Is Avowal as He Quits Verdict Fight. This I* the i cnnd of three articles which pvt a iimpse of A. B. Fall, former secretar of the interior, a* he is today in Neti Mexico. By United Prees THREE RIVERS. N. M., May 9. Albert B. Fall, former secretary of interior, has faith that his friends will succeed in aiding him escape serving a penitentiary term. He finally has quit fighting the verdict that he accepted a bribe in the oil case. Now his friends are working to obtain clemency for him in order to keep him from serving a sentence they fear might prove fatal, as he is ill. He has been sentenced to a year in prison and fined SIO,OOO. "I am leaving my future action in the case entirely in th> hands of my friends. They were the ones who urged me to quit my court fight,” Fall said. “ don’t know what steps they are taking. I know, however, that they are busy, for I read in the newspapers about the circulation of petitions for presidential action. I have confidence in them.” , Urged to Quit Court Fight The many letters that came from his friends urged him to quit his court fight, he revealed. These letters pointed out that his family should be spared further hardships in the fight. The plea to consider his family brought the decision not to appeal his conviction to the supreme court, he said. Fall enjoys rereading these expressions of encouragement and of faith in his innocence. Many of the writers are westerners who knew him when he served in New Mexico territorial and state offices. One was from an old political enemy who sent a copy of a letter he had addressed to President Hoover urging clemency. Visitors come to the ranch house also to see him and when his health permits, he chats with them. While some come merely to visit, others, such as Spanish-Americans and Indians living in the vicinity, come for advice as to their homestead. Fall is still “judge” or “senator” or “secretary” to them. Spare Life Few Years Whether his friends are endeavoring to obtain a presidential pardon or a suspended sentence, Fall does not know. His family believes that if mercy is shown him so that he can be freed of the worry of the case, his life would be spared to them a few more years. Persons from all parts of the country, most of whom he does not know, also write Fall to express their confidence in him. “We always acknowledge these letters. I spend part of each morning answering them,” Mrs. C. C. Chase, Fall's daughter, said.

T~XEMOCRATIC primary election in 1932, from all indications, will be a “lawyers only’’ affair. Incumbents probably will be renominated for all county offices, although there is some talk of opposition to Fred Vehling, county coroner, who was under fire recently. The only office for which it seems there will be a real fight among the Democrats is that of circuit judge. It appears to be a foregone conclusion that the incumbent. Harry O. Chamberlin, will seek the Republican nomination without very strong opposition. At the present count, at least six Democrats covet the honor. a a tt Heading the list, of course, is H. Nathan Swaim, county chairman, who, as was set out Friday, will not be a candidate again for that post. Because of his genial disposition and the able manner in which he managed the 1930 campaign, Swaim is assured a great deal of support from the outset. Seme of his friends are urging that he forego the race for the circuit bench and seek the mayoralty in 1933. but the chairman would prefer being a judge. Possibility of a fight for city hall support looms, as the political gossip indicates that both Edw r ard H. Knight, corporation counsel and James E. Deery, city attorney, will vie for the circuit post, Knight is thought to have the inside position, because he was associated in law practice with Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan. Deery is said to count heavily on the prestige and experience lie obtained as municipal court, judge. The aspirant who. it is believed, ranks with Swaim in popuarity is Earl Cox, who enjoys a wide acquaintance among Marion county Democrats and is a well-known attorney. tt a tt If Cox seeks the pest, Thomas E. Garvin, municipal court judge who was defeated in the 1930 primary for the probate bench nomination, will not become a candidate, although he is said to cherish such ambitions at present. Cox managed Garvin's 1930 campaign and it is not likely they will oppose each other in the coming primary. City hall attaches during the Slack administration will be asked to support Oren Hack, corporation counsel during that period and former member of the board of works. With so long a list of entrants at so early a date, it is expected than by primary election time the field will be narrowed by tradings and agreements. Republicans will, of course, fight for every office priority or past experience w r on't count when it comes to filing in a primary.

TROOPS STAND PREPARED FOR MINERS' CHARGE Renewal of Hill Warfare Threatens Momentarily in Kentucky. BY FOSTER EATON I'nited Pres* S;fl Correspondent EVARTS, Ky.. May 9.—Sfullen groups of unemployed miners loitered on street corners and m their union meeting place here today, while 4CO national guardsmen camped in the battle-scarred foothills of the southeastern Kentucky coal fields, both silently anticipating momentarily renewal of disorders which already have claimed five lives. Presence of the guardsmen, under command of Colonel Daniel M. Carrell of the One hundred thirtyeighth field artillery, has had a quieting effect upon the restless miners, but there is a distinct air of brooding trouble caused by deeprooted animosities. On Side of Miners Factions are aligned m two groups—business men and mine owners, who demand peace, and unemployed miners, who demand recognition of their union. The trouble grew out of efforts of the United Mine Workers of America to organize the mines here. Thus far, net an owner has granted the union recognition. Ciy officials. Police Chief Asa Cusick and assistant Chief A. L. Benson aligned themselves openly on the side of the miners and blame publicly the "mine guards" for the disorders. Sheriff Johnson Henry Blair of Harlan, the county seat, while denying that he is affiliated or aligned with the mine owners, blames what he terms “reactionary" and "left wing” union wokrers for the troubles. Denies Reds to Blame Many public officials deny the charges by Blair and Governor Flem D. Sampson that Communists "are at the bottom of it all.” Colonel Carrell emphatically denies he has found any evidence of Communistic activities. Mine owners blame the ill feelings on the depression and the adverse freight rates, which they insisted made any further concessions out of the question. Some of the mines are averaging two and one-half days work a week. One miner expresed the general oniof the entire group when he said: "If I’m to starve. I'd rather do it sitting right here on this railroad track than work for the privilege.”
