J., May 19.—The “peer of African mystery” is alive today only because his most ardent disciple “lost faith.” Joseph Roth, supreme knight of mysticism, proclaimed his followers should bury him alive during a Negro ritual, from which, through his “gigantic powers,” he expected to arise unscathed. But when the Rev. Madison Russ of the church of the Friendly Rescue Mission, failed to hoar prearranged taps from the coffin buried In the churchyard, he lost faith in “the great” and summoned police. Earth flew fast. Roth, the supreme knight, was removed from his coffin unconscious, btu still breathing. DOUBLE CAPACITY OF FREE WHEELING PLANT Enlargement of L. G. S. Devices Is Announced by President.

BY BEN STERN “TT’S an ill wind hat blows nobody X good.” And with this philosophical reflection, Albert Clark of Cayuka ,old Fifth Democratic chairman, carefully filed another application for a state job from some earnest Democrat in the waste basket. At least that is what his political colleagues in Vermilion, Parke, Putnam, Hendricks, Clay and Vigo counties believe. Clark’s activity around the secretary of state’s office at first was laid to his solicitude for Democratic job seekers of his district. Yet records reveal that he has been exceedingly unfortunate in obtaining preferment for them. But now it is learned that he has been selling automobiles to subordinate departments. a a a Beyond question, there has been more open political activity in the office of Frank Mayr Jr. than in any others. This is in a large measure caused by his two assistants, Robert Codd, deputy secretary of state, and William O’Neill, securities commissioner, both of whom are politically minded. O’Neill was elected LieutenantGovernor in 1912 and has maintained steadfast friendship with many old-time Democrats. Value of this was demonstrated in the 1930 convention, which nominated Mayr after a bitter battle which went to five ballots amidst pandemonium. It was the old guard which went to the aid of Mayr and succeeded in defeating the favorites, Arthur Hamrick and Virgil Simmons. a a a CODD has been active in South Bend politics for years and has been a Rudolph Montgomery henchman there. Observers have been commenting for some time on efforts of O’Neill and Codd to loom largest as Mayr’s assistants and confidants. Rarely have two men been so dissimilar. Where O’Neill cloaks his feelings under a suave and genial exterior the other is of exceedingly nervous temperament with jerky mannerisms.
