BUYING BOOST IS RESULT OF CHICAGO FETE Quarter of Million Persons Attend Gay Carnival on State Street. BY SAM KNOTT CnUed t’re* Staff CorrrsDoneent CHICAGO, May 14—Merchants of State street hailed today the all-Chicago jubilee as a boon to business, and the start of anew era as trading was resumed with a rush after one of the gayest nights In the city’s history. Not since the armistice has there been such a celebration as Wednesday night in the street, ednsiderrd one of the world’s greatest trading centers. And not for many years, the merchants said, has business been so brisk as today. Jubilee luncheons, neighborhood parades, more carnivals, more dancing in the streets, more shouting, more buying, and a monster fireworks display along the lake shore near Buckingham fountain were features today as the jubilee reached its fourth round of events and gathered momentum as it moved along.

Thousands at Carnival It was estimated that more than a quarter million persons crowded into State street for the carnival Wednesday night. Flags and bunting flew from every store and light post. Searchlights played across the packed masses of humanity and up along the buildings. At six intersections, nationally known orchestra leaders had charge of programs in which more than three hundred entertainers took part. The merrymakers danced. Tons of confetti and ticker tape were tossed. Scores of women fainted in the jam. They were carried to nearby emergency Red Cross stations. At one corner so many women fainted and were carried on to the apiuscment platform the performers had to climb of! to make room. One restaurant manager reported almost thirty unconscious girls carried into his place during the evening. Movie Actor Is Hurt Dennis Sullivan, 54, a barber, fell dead of heart disease while trying to fight his way to one of the stages. Several score others suffered minor injuries in the jam. The crowd became so dense at 9 o’cloc.. that several big plate glass windows were crushed in. Jean Harlow, movie actress, was among these hurt. A photographer asked her to shake hands with some of the merrymakers around her stage. The handshakes were so enthusiastic her hand was cut by a ring and glass from a wrist watch, which was broken, slashed her wrist. The carnival stage ended threequarters of a mile under the big lights which electrical experts say make State street the best illuminated thoroughfare In the world. The new mayor, Anton J. Cermak, took part in the program. Representatives of thirty-six foreign countries were there. SNOWDEN IS ILL AGAIN Crippled British Chancellor Breaks Under Strain of Budget Work. By United Press LONDON, May 14.—Philip Snowden, elderly crippled chancellor of the exchequer, has suffered a setback after recuperation from a reernr, serious illness. The setback temporarily deprived Snowden of the use of his legs. It was believed due to the strain of presenting the labor government's budget to the house of commons recently, at a time when he was recovering from an operation. ACTOR’S AUTOS SEIZED By United. Press LOS ANGELES, May 14.-—Two automobiles owned by Reginald Denny were under legal attachments today after his former wife, Mrs. Irene Denny, testified that the actor was $5,400 behind in his property settlement payments. Mrs. Denny, formerly known on the stage as Irene Haisman, said she was promised SIO,OOO when she and Denny were divorced in 1927, but that only $4,600 had been paid.

BY BEN STERN PLUM tree shaking, that quaint old Hoosier political pastime performed at the expense of the taxpayer, will come into its own within a year, when the Leslie administration nears its close. One of the usual methods of rewarding governors' secretaries is to appoint them to lucrative state posts, such as the public service commission or state tax board. Governor Ed Jackson took care of his secretary, Pliny H. Wolford, by naming him to the state tax board. n a a Friends of Gaylord Morton are suggesting his appointment as secretary of the joint purchasing committee to replace Dailey E. McCoy, whose term expired in April, 1929, and who has been serving without appointment since. McCoy was rewarded with this post by Jackson, whose campaign he managed . Morton is well liked and although acting as more or less of an undersecretary he has shown a wide knowledge of the business o! the Governor’s office, made many friends, and has been regarded as the real secretary. There is no doubt that Morton is an asset to Leslie. tt u u State Senator Byron Huff of Martinsville, who is a state budget committee member, is also said to be seeking this position. Lewis O. Chasey, chief secretary, would like either a tax board or public service commission job, it is reported. Only remaining tax board appointment terminating during the Leslie administration is that of Wolford, whose term expires in December, 1932. The public service commission post to be open is that of Francis T. Singleton, which terminates July 1, 1932. Chasey has not been able to establish any valuable connections and probably will be without an advocate at Leslie’s court. He was not a Leslie man during the 1928 campaign primary and convention and his appointment was said to have been a concession to the farm group. In fact, as far as state affairs went, Chasey’s record has shown him only a writer of Governor’s proclamations. $57,376 IN DRIVE FUND Jewish Welfare Fund Final Reports to Be Made Friday. Final reports in the Jewish Welfare Fund campaign will be submitted at campaign headquarters in the Occidental building Friday noon, Joseph M. Bloch, campaign chairman, announced today.
