Movie Hero Is Given Even Chance to Recover From Peritonitis. By United Press HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 25. Tom Mix, hero of many battles in real life and on the screen, fought at ! even odds today against death, l Aided by science and aviation, the adventurous film star was given an even chance to recover from peritonitis, the result of a ruptured appendix, after administration of a bacteriophage rushed by airplane from Stanford university. The bacteriophage, w’hich fights toxic poisoning by "eating” gangrenous germ cells, was rushed to the Glendale airport by one of the fastest planes on the coast, and then, behind screaming police sirens, to the Hollywood hospital. The cowboy actor’s physician, Dr. Nichol Smith, placed great faith in the serum and in Mix’ strong constitution, developed during fifty-one years of rugged outdoor life. Scoffed at Illness Mix’ condition was expected to rej main at a critical stage for perhaps j forty-eight hours. He had taken a j turn for the worse late Tuesday | after an emergency operation for j appendicitis performed Monday night Mix scoffed at his illness for sev- ; oral days, refusing to seek medical ; attention until seized with violent ! uains Monday night, according to ' his business manager, Miss Tressa I Eason. The actor has had many narrow escapes from death, and is proud of j numerous bullet scars and that he j has had “almost every bone in ni% oody broken ‘ at various times. Saw Service in Wars Asa cowboy he roamed the ranges of Montana, Wyoming, Colorado and | Texas. He saw service with United States forces during the SpanishAmerican war and with Great Britain during the Boer w r ar. He also fought outlaw’s as a Texas ranger. In 1908 he became a rider for the famous “101 Ranch” and after winning the title of world champion cow’boy in 1909, came to Hollywood. His success as a motion picture actor was almost immediate.

‘UNCLE ALF’ TAYLOR OF TENNESSEE DIES

Former Governor, Famous Candidate in ‘War of Roses,’ Passes at 83. ll<j United Press JOHNSON CITY, Tenn., Nov. 25. —Former Governor Alf Taylor, 83, picturesque principal of Tennessee's famous political “war of the roses,” died at Appalachian hospital today, after a long illness. “Uncle Alf,” as he was best known throughout the happy valley of eastern Tennessee, was Governor ten years ago, elected by the largest margin of votes ever polled by a Republican candidate. Formerly he had served three years in congress. He was famed throughout the south for his part in the romatic “war of the roses” of 1886, when he and his brother Robert were rival candidates for Governor. Bob Taylor was the Democratic nominee, “pncle Alf” the Republ’can. They stumped the state together, they spoke from the same platform and they made bitter attacks on each other, but when the day's hurrahing was over, they shared the same room every night. Bob Taylor’s reference to himself and Alf as “roses from the same garden,” resulted in the campaign being known as the “War of the Roses.” Bob, who won, wore a white rose in his lapel. Alf a deep red one, and their supporters were identified likewise. When they felt that their audiences were tiring of political speeches, Bob would pick up his fiddle and play old folk songs. Or Alf would yam about fox hunts in Happy Valley, the beautiful broad, sweeping plain near here, where the Taylors were born. In 1920, Alf succeeded in his political aspiration*. Bob, who had retired by then, died several years later.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

TERRIFIC BALES RAKE MIDWEST, END HEAT WAVE Storm Warnings Posted on Great Lakes; Shipping Is Impeded. By United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 25.—Gales from the west ’set the midwest shivering today, ended a late fall heat wave and forecast advance of the blizzard which took two lives in the Rocky mountain region. Snow fell in the northwest, drifting heavily before strong winds. Late fall shipping on the Great Lakes was impeded as the storm whipped up huge waves. Storm warnings were posted. In the west, where Norman Potter, 36, air mail pilot, and Mary Snow, 13, lost their lives in the blizzard, the storm had abated. Temperatures were rising and all highways had been cleared of drifts. In the midwest, where temperatures held above 60 degrees generally, thermometer readings fell suddenly to below freezing. Snow was confined to northern Wisconsin, Minnesota and the Dakotas, but forecasters predicted a general fall over the region. Wires Are Blown Down Communications were damaged by the high wind and by sleet. Wires and telegraph poles were blown dowm. While city dwellers viewed with disfavor the end of the warm spell, which had set flowers blooming again in their gardens, farmers hailed the predicted snow and cold. The snow brought needed moisture to their crops and the cold ended disastrous late fall sprouting which they feared would ruin growth next sprihg. Motorists traveling to the northwest were warned of possibility of drifts. Temperatures High in East In the east, temperatures clung close to the unprecedented high marks. New York and other eastern cities basked in temperatures around the 70-degree mark. Weather forecasters said the hot spell might end today or continue for a short period, depending on the rapidity of the cold ■wave’s progress. The storm was increasing in intesity as it passed into eastern Ontario, but the probability -was It would not hit the eastern states in full force. . On the Pacific coast, fruit growers continued to burn smudge pots to protect their orchards from frost, but today was expected to bring relief from the low temperatures.

Alf Taylor

“Uncle Alf,” too, was an accomplished “fiddler.” and his fiddle was a fixture in the executive office at the state capitol while he was Governor. He was famous also for his anecdotes and his watermelons. Many of his stories centered about exploits of “Old Limber,” a fox hound. Governor Taylor made “Old Limber” almost as well known as himself. “Uncle Alf” spent most of his time for the last several years, in a rocking chair on the front porch of his “Happy Valley” home. Hundreds of friends visited him and attended his “watermelon and lemonade” birthday parties. His eightythird birthday was observed while he was in the hospital last August. All living members of his family were at his bedside when he passed away today.

FARM REMEDIES ARE PROPOSED Three Means Are Urged by Agricultural Experts. By United Press WASHINGTON, Nov. 25. Agricultural leaders today urged the export debenture, the equalization fee and stabilization of silver as effective measures of aiding the American farmer. L. J. Taber, master of the national Grange, testifying before the senate agricultural committee, advocated the export debenture. He maintained that the “federal reserve system has not fulfilled its duties.”* The farm dollar, he said, now is worth but 54 cents. Edward A. O’Neal, president of the Ameri6an Farm Bureau Federation, urged the equalization fee principle for disposing of surplus crops. It would “aid in making the tariff effective on farm crops,” he argued. Both O’Neal and Taber urged action to stabilize silver. O’Neal digressed to tell the committee that agriculture opposed government operation of Muscle Shoals. Operation by a farmers organization, as suggested by the Muscle Shoals commission in its report to president Hoover, he said, however, probably would be with the the support of the farm interests. AIRPORT CONSTRUCTION CLAIMS ARE SETTLED Some Are Disallowed Because of Defective Workmanship. Final settlement of all claims in connection with erection of the new municipal airport practically has been completed, it was reported to the works’ board today by C. O. Britton, board member and receiver 1 for funds due on the contract price. Certain claims, among more than ; fifty, were not allowed in full because of defective workmanship. However, majority of claimants received full payment. When Contractor C. T. Caldwell stopped work on the airport job, his bonding company, Commonwealth Casualty Company of Philadelphia, finished the work. Total | amount of claims was $102,000, but this was reduced to approximately $65,000 after Britton's counsel had investigated them.

ALTERED CLAIM CASE PUT IN ORR’S HANDS Accounts Chief to Air Charge Against Commissioners. Allegations that county commissioners altered a claim for gravel road work to ’‘protect’” Councilman Samuel Pfendler were laid before Lawrence F. Orr, chief examiner of the state board of accounts, today by Harry Dunn, county auditor. In a closed conference, Commissioners George Snider and Dow Vorhies questioned George Burgess, a district road superintendent, who turned in the claim of $22,50 for the councilman. Burgess has charged Snider and Vorhies, on receipt of the claim, told him they would have to change the name on the pay demand to that of Pfendler’s son Roy, to “keep from getting into a jam.” Commissioners denied this, asserting the contract for hauling the gravel was made to Roy Pfendler, who was unable to do the hauling, due to farm work. Phone Company Loses Suit Verdict of S3OO damages against the Indiana Bell Telephone Company for alleged dumping of waste materials on a vacant lot at 239 Cumberland street, was returned today by a jury in superior court two. Charles T. Caldwell, owner of the property, sought damages of $3,000.

OVER MILLION NEEDY PERSONS TO BEJEASTED Thanksgiving Really May Mean Something to Jobless Americans. By United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 25.—More than one million persons who otherwise might go hungry Thanksgiving day will feast Thursday because Americans are good fellows. A survey by the United Press today covered plans of organizations, welfare groups, churches, business houses, and individuals in twentyseven representative cities ranging in population from less than 100,000 to New York’s millions. In those cities, more than 210,000 men, women and children will be given some of the turkey, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie and other good things to eat that have made Thanksgiving a unique holiday. Similar activities in the other cities and towns in the nation indicated a total of 1,000,000 recipients of Thanksgiving cheer. Although funds are not so plentiful this year, more people are trying to aid less fortunate neighbors because the general need is greater, the survey indicated. For that reason there should be fewer hungry Americans overlooked than usual.

HOUSE REBELS MAP ANTI-GAG RULE PROGRAM La Guards, Promoter of Move. Hopes to Hold Balance of Power. By United Ires* WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.—A preliminary program looking to liberalization of the present house rules by making it easier to bring up measures for consideration, was drafted today by eight house Republicans and one Democrat. A similar meeting of senate Independents was held in the office of Senator Borah (Rep., Ida.) and discussed domestic economic issues, without reaching any decisions. Another meeting was called for Friday, which is expected to include at least ten western Republicans. Senator Norris ißep., Neb.), who called the meeting, was detained today by a farm relief hearing. Those who attended included Borah. La Follette (Wis.), Nye (N. D.) and Brookhart (la.). La Guardia Calls Session Representative La Guardia (Rep.. N, Y.), who called the house meeting, declined to reveal the group's procedure and announced a call for a meeting Dec. 4. He said several members who sympathized with his movement are not here yet. The New Yorker said he hoped to gather enough votes to hold tho balance of power in organization of the house and election of a Speaker. The clear majority of 218 that Democrats now have rolled up renders this difficult, he added. The group wanted to hold their votes as a threat to commit both Republican and Democratic leaders to changes in what they called “gag rules” under which the house operates. Nelson is Absent Present at the meeting today in La Guardia's office were Representative Edgar Howard <Dem., Neb.), one-time secretary of William Jennings Bryan; Representative Paul J. Kvale (Farmer Labor, Minn.), and the following Republicans: Victor Christgau. Conrad Selvig (Minn.), James H. Sinclair (N. D.). Ed H. Campbell <La.), George J. Schneider and Gerald J. Boileau (Wis.). Notable among the absentees was the veteran Representative John M. Nelson, leader of the Wisconsin insurgent group, w-ho led the successful fight in the house twenty years ago against the rule of “Uncle Joe” Cannon. Nelson favors rules changes, but takes the position a special commute should take up the task, working over the' whole set of present rues. Nelson has announced he would support a Republican for Speaker. budget" jruung"" due Judge Weir to Decide on Suit of Prosecutor Herbert Wilson. Ruling on the suit in which Prosecutor Herbert E. Wilson seeks to have a county council order slicing SII,OOO from his budget this year, set aside, will be made soon by Superior Judge Clarence E. Weir. In testimony Tuesday afternoon Harvey Grabill, county attorney, told the court he had advised councilmen the action was not legal in view of acts of the 1931 legislature. The assembly set Wilson's budget at $38,600, vesting him with power to fix salaries of deputies.
