HOOVER FORCES BATTLE REPEAL, CORTIS REVOLT Cabinet Members Hunting for Plank to Hold All Factions. BY RAY TUCKER Times SUB Writer WASHINGTON, June 14.—As the Republican national convention assembled today, President Hoover’s representatives were engaged in a desperate effort to suppress a dou-ble-headed rebellion for an outright prohibition repeal plank, and the displacement of Vice-President Curtis by a younger and wetter man. While vociferous wets and prayerful drys swirled through the corridors of the Congress hotel, cabinet members and half of the White House secretariat spent twenty-four hours trying to hammer out a resubmission plank that would hold all factions. They admitted it was a difficult task, but expressed a wistful hope that they would succeed. Against Outright Repeal At these conferences the administration's representatives definitely threw their influence against any plank committing the party to repeal. In the face of instructions from numerous states, including wet New York, Postmaster-General Walter F. Brown and Ogden L. Mills, of New York, secretary of the treasury, argued against any affront to professional drys. Referring to the New York delegation's caucus vote for repeal, Mills said: “I do not consider those instructions to be binding.” Several ultimatums were hurled at this shirt-sleeved group by drys, wets and compromisers. Assails New York Dank Senator Hiram Bingham of Connecticut assailed even the New York plank because it does not pledge the O. O. P. to work for repeal. He threatened a floor fight. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university, indicated he would waive his earlier demand that the party “take off its coat and vest” for repeal. Mrs. Henry W. Peabody, social dowager of Florida and Massachusetts, who once declared that “Mr. Hoover is our man,” knelt with several thousand drys in prayer for him, the party and “that wayward son of a fine mother,” John D. Rockefeller Jr. The National Board of Prohibition Strategy, under the dominance of the Anti-Saloon League, denounced any plamk criticising prohibition, and insisted upon a strong law enforcement stand. Both May Yield Some It may be a few more days before the Hoover debating society, which included Walter F. Newton and Larry Richey, the President's secretaries, will finish its work. Then the plank will be presented to Hoover for his approval. The personnel of the committee insures that nothing will be done without his consent. Whether the convention will submit to (presidential dictation, especially if it results in a weak and vague resubmission declaration, is a question. Despite the tug-of-war, it generally is believed that political wets and drys will yield a little. The wets’ are expected to approve any plank proposing, but net urging repeal, while some drys would probably abide by the same sort of plank. But the G. O. P. bosses shudder every time they recall Mrs. Peabody’s prediction that 12,500,000 women will stay at home in. November if Hoover lets the party desert the drys. Politicians Well Trained The Republican politicians are upholding their reputation as welldisciplined soldiers. Pending action by the committee of strategy and the White House on the prohibition plank, such key states as Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Michigan, California and Ohio are deferring any decision. “We will accept anything satisfactory to Mr. Hoover.” is the way their leaders describe their attitude. Ironically, it is Bingham of Connecticut, the son of a missionary, who may seek to upset the White House plan to please everybody. The movement to oust Curtis is one of the most puzzling political incidents of convention history. Almost everybody concedes that the ticket, could be strengthened by almost anybody else, but nobody seems willing to throw the first brick. Many Want Dawes The Massachusetts delegation issued an open invitation when it resolved that it would support exGovernor Alvin T. Fuller if his name were presented to the convention, but it did not take any steps to make that declaration effective. It will not present Fuller. The man a majority wants is former Vice-President Charles G. Dawes, and it is generally believed he would accept. Hoovers friends. Including Mills and Brown and the pair of secretaries, are saying nice things about “Charlie,” but it is felt Hoover would not lift a finger if the convention turns thumbs down. State Checks to Be Exempt Attorney-General James M. Ogden ruled today that state checks will be exempt from the new 2-cent federal tax to be placed in effect this month. In an opinion to R. B. Stewart, Purdue university secretary, Ogden held that the state is a government unit, exempt from the tax under statute.

Old Home Tire By United Prr** LEONARDTOWN. M„ June 14.—Found: A profitable use for wornout automobile tires. An old tire thrown into the Patuxent river three years ago was pulled out by a fisherman. Three hundred oysters were clinging to the casing. The discovery may cause many more old tires to be tossed into the river. The oyster industry has been languishing here and many believe it has been because the baby oysters had nothing to cling to.

PLANS TO RENT JUVENILE HOME ARE ABANDONED Present Quarters Far From Suitable, but Board’s Hands Are Tied. BY SHELDON KEY Marion county commissioners have abandoned plans to rent another juvenile home to replace the Michigan street home, which has been in use several years. Dow W. Vorhies, commissioners' president, stated the board had reached this decision because it failed to find a suitable location. The county is paying $250 monthly to rent the home at 225 Vs East Michigan street. This is SSO less a month than last year. “We have abandoned plans,”

Sensible Way to Lose Fat Start taking Kruschen Salts today—that’s the common-sense, safe, harmless way to reduce. This is what they do—they clean out the impurities in your blood by keeping the bowels, kidneys and liver in splendid working shape and fill you with a vigor and tireless energy you'd most forgotten had existed. Asa result, instead of planting yourself in an easy 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. Be careful of the foods you eat—go light on fatty meats and pastry—then watch the pounds slide off! Take one half teaspoonful In a glass of hot water to-morrow 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 a bottle of Kruschen Salts —lasts 4 weeks —at any progressive druggist anywhere in the world —the cost is little —the benefits great—but be sure and get Kruschen for your health's sake—it's the SAFE, harmless way to reduce.—Advertisement.

Vorhies explained, “since we could not find a fireproof structure, suitable for a detention home.” Present quarters are far from suitable, according to juvenile court authorities, who have advocated erection of a SIOO,OOO detention homeThe Michigan street home was described as fire hazard and condemned by the state board of charities several months ago. There is no playground and quarters are crowded. Refusal of the county council to approve a bond issue recently caused commissioners to drop plans for building a home, they said. Commissioners then sought to rent a structure, but court author-
