FORMER SLAVE NOW MEMBER OF G. A. R.
Muncie Man Joined Army on Promise of Getting Medical Services. By United Press MUNCIE, Ind., June 13.—Owen Million, the only Negro member of Williams Post, G. A. R., is one of the few Civil war veterans who can say he fought to free himself. Million spent all of his life as a slave in Kentucky until he joined the Union army. The name Million is not an ancestral name, but was given to Owen when he was born into a slave family on the plantation of Million, a Kentucky slave holder. His mother is said to have come from South Carolina, and was traded to Million in exchange for hogs. His father, who was part Indian, was “sent down the river” because he refused to let his owner’s wife whip him. When the Civil war began, Owen Million joined the Union forces, but not because he wanted to fight for his freedom. His master had always been kind to him. But, for two years, Owen had suffered from injury to his heel, and when an army officer invited him to join the Union forces, promising medical aid, he went. For three years, Owen served In the Sixth Kentucky cavarly. When the war was over he was at a loss to know what to do with his freedom. He decided nothing would be better than working again for his former master. When nearly home, Million met him on a road. “Where are you going, Owen?” the master asked. “Back to Million,” was Owen’s reply, and there was no word of reproach from his former owner. Owen has been married twice, both times to former slave women. Thirteen children were bom to his first wife, of whom three are living.

By Times Special PITTSBURGH, June 13.—The most significant aspect of the present business reaction is that, while there has been “perhaps the worst general economic breakdown in history, we have not had any semblance of a financial panic,” such as characterized some previous depressions, Rome C. Stephenon, president of the American Bankers Association, declared Friday before the American Institute of Banking convention here. Terming unemployment the greatest public problem in the country today, he said that the sooner masses of workers are back on jobs on almost any terms, the better it will be for both capital and labor. “The surest way to bring the nation out of the business depression is to raise the pressure of public confidence to the point of becoming a dynamic force,” Stephenson said, declaring that he is not pessimistic about the future. Commenting on the general agreement that the bottom of the depression has been reached, he said there is such a thing at “overstaying depression,” just as there is of “overstaying aj boom.” - Invited by Hoover By Times Special MARION, Ind., June 13.—An in- \ j vitation to play before President ; Hoover has been received by Mil-! j burn Carey of this city, national I : champion oboe player.

Man Who Hit Watson Boom Will Greet Hoover
■. . .
Oscar G. Foellinger, Ft. Wayne publisher, with the sheaf of petitions that put Herbert C. Hoover in Indiana’s 1928 presidential preference primary race.
BY ROBERT L. BEARD If there’s an extra squeeze in the President’s handshake for one of his Hoosier greeters Monday, lay your money on Oscar to get it! Oscar—to those living beyond the bounds of Ft. Wayne—is Oscar G. Foellinger, publisher of the Ft. Wayne News-Sentinel; the hefty, grinning fellow who threw the Hoover hat in Indiana’s presidential preference primary ring in 1928 when Jim Watson’s boys thought they had a roof over it. Oscar won’t get that extra squeeze just because he’s chairman of the welcoming committee of the Indiana Republican Editorial Association, whose members the President will address here Monday night. Such a chairman might expect it, exofficio; but a handshake’s a handshake, while a grip’s a grip! Rebelled Against Watson Behind Oscar, welcoming the President, will be editorial association heads who, three years ago, kicked Oscar’s shins for injecting the cabinet member into the Indiana presidential field. It was they who, at their banquet March 9, 1928, voted the association’s support to Senator Jim, the favorite son, —one day after Foellinger had entered Hoover in the race. Oscar skipped that banquet; but this one Monday comes right down his alley. And as he clambers into the presidential limousine to escort the nation’s chief executive to the Governor’s mansion, Oscar will admit to himself he’s a little surprised. Started As Handy Man For, fifteen years ago when, as publisher’s handy man, he perched his 225 pounds on a bookkeeper’s stool in Ft. Wayne’s fire-eating Republican organ, he had no more idea j of expressing Hoosierdom’s official i welcome to a President of the j United States than Hoover—then chairman of the commission for re-; lief in Belgium—had of being Presi- ' dent. Much less, if Hoover’s Democratic critics are right! A “demon for punishment,” Foellinger was an 13-hour-a-day man for so many long years in t his paper’s uphill fight, he must have to pinch himself when he climbs into the News-Sentinel’s big passenger plane for a jaunt to Los Angeles. It was about twenty years after Horatio Alger quit crowning the honest plugger with radiant success that “O. G. F.” dropped the “by” j from telegrams ordering carloads of newsprint for the Allen county • daily that had carried the names of : Ernest Bicknell and fiery Jesse Greene atop the editorial page. Take Over Reins Foellinger and Frank G. Hamil- j ton, his associate and advertising manager, demonstrated they didn’t wear 55-inch belts for nothing. Fitted with cork vests by Ft. Wayne bankers confident of the: paper’s future and its management, | Foellinger plunged into ..principal ownership of the News-Sentinel upon the death of his employers. Then came the days of one of Indiana’s fiercest newspaper feuds. Lew G. Ellingham, publisher of Ft. Wayne’s Democratic Journal-Ga-zette, launched an evening paper to invade Foellinger’s field. Oscar retaliated with a Sunday morning News-Sentinel to belabor Lew’s big Sunday adgetter. Staffs worked over-time. Feature

syndicate salesmen found Ft. Wayne their utopia. Costly Rivalry Readers got journalistic luxuries such as Indiana never had tasted. And while they read, watched and chortled, advertisers fretted and Oscar and Lew pored with sad eyes over red-inked ledgers. Truces were made; broken. But finally the rivals carried identical page one statements announcing the end of the disastrous war. With peace came prosperity, with prosperity power; and to Oscar, in 1928, the duty, he believed, to oppose the veteran Watson’s insincere presidential move by putting Hoover on the primary ballot. “Use Your Judgment” The days before he did it were plaguing to the publisher who insisted he sought no reward and wanted no alliances with the gubernatorial pack in that race. “Use your own judgment” Hoover replied to Foellinger’s telephoned query: “What shall I do?” So at the zero hour, Oscar used it. He walked to the office of the secretary of state with names of 6,500 petitioners for the secretary of commerce. Senator Jim won Indiana’s delegation, but it was quick tc jump on the Hoover band wagon at' Kansas City, Ed Bush’s flag-wav.ng notwithstanding. Hoover was in— Oscar was in! Oscar will greet the President!
HITCH-HIKING GIRL HALTED Banker’s Daughter on Way Home With Father. By United Press SOUTH BEND, Ind., June 13. The “swell bumming expedition” of Miss Betsy Warden is over today and she is en route with her father back to the Watertown (N. Y.) home from which she disappeared on June 2. Miss Warden’s father was looking for her in Gary Friday night when she appeared at a fining station here and asked an attendant which road was the best “to bum a ride on.” The attendant called detectives. The girl was dressed as a boy, and declared she had been having “the best time.” Her father, called here from Gary, lost no time getting started back to New York, but before they left, Miss Wardell explained that she had lost her friend, George Reed, with whom she ran away, in Ohio, last week. “One night I slept in a barn and another on some church steps,” she said. “After I lost George in Ashtabula I decided to go on west alone.”
