COPS SEEK TRACE OF HANDCUFFED AUTOIST Tress Search for Driver Believed to Have Been Injured. Police today pressed a search for a handcuffed man believed to be injured, who was seen driving an automobile early Sunday. When he heard an automobile motor racing at New York and Spring streets Sunday night, a man living in the neighborhood ran to investigate. He told police he saw the handcuffed man talking with a woman and trying to free himself of the manacles. A short time later the woman left and the handcuffed man drove away. Police found a pool of blood on the street where the car had been standing. No report had been received by police of a handcuffed prisoner escaping.

Sensible Way to Lose Fat Start taking Kruschen Salts to : day—that's the common-sense way to reduce. This is what they do—they clean out impurities in your blood by keeping the bowels, kidneys and liver in splendid working order—a vigor and tireless energy you'd most forgotten had existed returns. Asa result instead of planting yoursoll in an easj chair every free moment and letting flabby fat accumulate you feel an urge for activity that keeps you moving around doing the things you’ve always wanted to do and needed to do to keep you in good condition. lU* careful of the foods you cat—then ■watch the pounds slide off 1 Take one half teaspoonful of Kruschen Salts in a glass of hot or cold water tomorrow morning and every morning—and if they don’t change your whole idea about reducing, go back and get the small price you paid for them. Get an 85 cent bottle of Kruschen Salts—lasts 4 weeks—at Hook’s Dependable Drug Stores or any progressive druggist anywhere in the world.—Advertisement,

BY BEN STERN. SENTIMENT of district chairmen toward calling of a special meeting of the Democratic state committee to select a successor to Charles A. Greathouse, Democratic national committeeman from Indiana, who died last week, is to be sounded by R. Earl Peters, state chairman, it was learned today. Fred Van Nuys, chairman of the 1930 campaign executive committee, first will poll the party leaders on his board of strategy, regarding the advisability of filling the vacancy at the present time. This recommendation, whatever it may be, then will be forwarded by Peters to the district chairmen, who will be asked to express their opinions. Rules of the national committee provide that where a vacancy occurs between national conventions, it may be filled at any time by the state committee. Names of three possible candidates for the honor have been advanced. They are Thomas Taggart, “Prince of French Lick,” whose father was the close friend and political associate of Mr. Greathouse; Lew Ellingham, Ft. Wayne publisher and former secretary of state, and William H. O’Brien of Lawrenceburg, former auditor of state. The latter, who was associated closely with the elder Taggart, and whose name has been mentioned frequently as a possible candidate for Governor next year, probably will bow himself out of the picture in the event that Tom indicates that he wants the national committee post. Ellingham, however, it has been reported, intennds to stick in the field. o a a An excellent indication of how far the opposition to the re-election of Peters as state chairman has progressed, would be afforded in event the state committee decides to fill the vacancy in the near future. Basis for this is the fact that Ellingham would go into the contest supported by Chester Montgomery and Rudy Ackerman of South Bend, leaders of the opposition; while Taggart would perforce, become the favorite of the state, chairman’s faction. A desperate effort would be exerted to elect the Fort Wayne publisher. Heretofore, it has been customary to award the state chairmanship to one section of the state and the national committeeship to another. Inasmuch as both Ellingham and Peters reside in Fort Wayne, selection of the former would help to solidify opposition to re-election of the latter. a U u It is good politics and might work out, except for one factor. Let Ellingham be selected and Peters and his friends would be sure to build up an organization to defeat him when the state convention elects the committeman next June. If Peters really is reflecting the truth in his claims that a majority of the incumbent district chairmen are allied with him, then good tactics would insist that he call together the committee at once and name Taggart, for if he waits, he may find the cards stacked against him. Signal favor was accorded the latter over the week-end when he was named by Jouett Shouse to head the drive here to pay off the party’s national debt. But as far as real opposition to Tom is concerned, there really is none. He is well liked by the rank and file of the party.
