DRYS MAY BACK GARNER TO PUT STOP TO WETS Texas’s Silence on Liquor Question Is Seen Bid for South’s Support. BY RAY TUCKER Time! Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.—Speaker John N. Garner’s refusal to declare himself on prohibition and other controversial questions today gave ground for the belief that professional drys of the south and west will rally around him in an effort to block avowedly wet candidates for the democratic presidential nomination. The view is strengthened by the fact that the Garner boom has the backing of such extreme prohibitionists as Senator Morris Sheppard <Dcm., Tex.), author of the eighteenth amendment; William G. McAdoo of California, who headed the drys when they clashed with A1 Smith at Madison Square Garden in 1924; Representative Thomas I. W. Blanton (Dem., Tex.) an evangelical dry, and a host of other political and professional blue ribboners. Dry League “Satisfied” Although F. Scott Mcßride, the Anti-Saloon League’s legislative agent here, has not passed on the Garner candidacy formally, he has indicated the Speaker’s legislative record is satisfactory to the Westerville organization. Until and unless Garner declares for revision or repeal, he will, whether he likes it or not, be regarded by powerful wet Influences in the north and east as the fairhaired boy of the factions of the south which supported President Hoover in 1928. Garner is holding his tongue on his present prohibition views, as he is on other political issues, and his record throws little light on his underlying attitude. He voted against the eighteenth amendment, but he voted for the Volstead act and supported every enforcement measure brought up in the house since 1920. Repeal Plank Doubtful With the exception of a few candidates, including Smith, Ritchie and Baker, it appears the Democratic hopefuls will adopt a policy of expediency on prohibition. Although Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York has declared for repeal, he has the backing of numerous prominent political drys. But these drys will not agree to a repeal plank in the platform, and indicate they do not think the New York Governor will insist on this point. This situation is causing considerable concern among Democrats who, besides hoping to win, want the party to take an unequivocal stand on the current issues of the day. Straddle Seen Fatal A straddle either in the type of candidate or platform, in their opinion, might prove fatal, especially as present indications are that' the G. O. P. will adopt the same strategy. To carry the really important electoral votes, they point out, the Democrats must appeal to the voters in states like Massachusetts, New York, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Indirna. This territory is normally Republican by from 100,000 to 500.000 majorities in a national election, and a weak nominee running on a wishy-washy prohibition plank, it is predicted, would meet defeat in spite of the depression and general discontent.

SMOKE PURE-TOBACCO OLD GOLDS [No “artificial flavors’’ to scratch the throat or taint the breath ... Not a cough in a carload!]

COURT UPHOLDS BOYS' RIGHT TO ! STAY A FARMER Supreme Bench Rules Lad May Remain With Uncie; Father Denied. Because he prefers staying with his uncle and “being a farmer” in Morgan county, to coming to Indianapolis and “being a street car man,” 13-year-old Otis Duckworth is going to be allowed to do so, despite efforts of his father to check him. For the supreme court has upheld the Morgan circuit court ruling denying custody of the child to his father, Richard Duckworth, through habeus corpus action. The senior Duckworth is a street car conductor and lives at 1150 Udell street. In a divorce action in 1924, custody of Otis and three otner children was ;;iven Mrs. Duckworth, who now is dead. Upon the death of his mother, Otis went to live with William Duckworth, his uncle, and brother of Richard, who 'resides on a farm near Paragon, Ind. He liked the farm and, despite visits with his father here, refused to leave. Tho father instituted a kidnaping charge against his brother for keeping the boy. When this failed he tried habeas corpus action. This, too, has failed. Justice Clarence R. Martin wrote the opinion sustaining the judgment of the lower court in refusing the habeas corpus. In his opinion the judge sets out the changing views of the courts in regard to custody of children. Early decisions treat the child as property of parents, and later ones consider only the child’s welfare and not the parents’ right, he points out. Somewhere between these two extremes views lies proper interpretation of the law, the opinion holds, and since the lower court found the farm the best place for Otis, the decision should be affirmed. UTILITY PLANS APPEAL Insull interests will appeal the Martinsville rate case, in which the federal district court here held the municipality must be the unit in utility rate making, to the United States supreme court, it was announced today by Robert M. Feustel, Indiana Insull chieftain.

PIANIST WILE PL’AY MOZART’S SONATA " Spanish Artist Changes His Program for Thursday to Permit a Much Heavier Recital Than Planned. BY WALTER D. RICKMAN A)f RS ’ NANCY MARTENS has received word that Jose Iturbi, Spanish Who wll l appear Ixl recita * at English’s Thursday night, has changed his program from the one first planned. . was done to permit a much heavier program than originally scheduled and also to allow the playing of Mozart’s “Sonata in A major.” This is the same sonata which he played some months ago in a broadcast from New York. At that time, the ovation following tfcs slaying of this sonata lasted about fourteen minutes. There was also a request for Brahms, Debussy, Ravel, Albenh. and Liszt. There was no change made in Chopin’s “Sonata in B minor Op.

)8,” which was on the original program. Everything else has been changed and I think for the better. His program is as follows: “Sonata in A major" Mozart Andante con varlazioni Mlnuetto Allegretto "Sonata in B minor Op. 58” Chopin Allegro maestoso Scherzo molto vivace Largo Finale presto non tanto variations on theme “Paganini". Brahms , Intermission Serenade a La Poupee” and “Lisle "Pava°M” 5e Debussy <F e^e Dieu a Seville” Albeniz Gnomenreigen” and "La Campanella” Liszt This is the first time that Iturbi has been brought to this city. To make a point clear, it is necessary for Mrs. Martens to have capacity to break even. It is a tremendous responsibility just now for any one person any place to bring artists of the standing of Iturbi for recitals. tt an Indianapolis theaters today offer: “Just Married” at Keith’s, “Die Privat Sekretaerin,” in German, at the Circle; “Shanghai Express” at the Indiana, “She Wanted a Millionaire” at the Apollo, “Freaks” at the Palace, special production at the Civic,' Ike Rose’s Midgets at the Lyric, and burlesque at the Colonial.
