‘RED’ CRY PUTS CHAPPLE OVER IN WISCONSIN Attacks on La Follette and on State University Help Bring Victory. This is the second of two stories dealing with John B Chspple, Wisconsin's latest political phenomenon, his policies and his peculiarly effective type of campaign The young north woods editor became a national figure almost overnight through his crusade against the La Toilette regime. By United Press ASHLAND. Wis., Sept. 24—When John B. Chappie won the Republican senatorial nomination in . the state primaries over the La Fol-lette-supported Senator John J. Blaine, his campaign battleground spread to nation-wide dimensions. While his immediate political future will be determined in the forthcoming election, none in Wisconsin doubts that this stalwart young fire-eater will make himself heard in national politics hereafter. Many factors, indubitably, contributed to the collapse of the La Follette dynasty. But Chappie on a speaker’s stand, fists clenched, head thrown back, roaring denunciation of Governor Philip F. La Follette and “his political racket" became the symbol of the opposition. Communism Is Cry Single-handed, financing his crusade by selling pamphlets, sleeping between speeches in the open like the woodsman he is, this 32-year-old managing editor of the Ashland Press probably was the force that won the struggle. How could a political stripling, no matter how dynamic and resourceful, persuade the voters of Wisconsin, where politics comes second nature, to oust the regime they so enthusiastically installed four years ago? Here, was his line of attack, directed against the Governor, his coterie of progressives, the so-called liberals in the administration and faculty of the University of Wisconsin, and all those in the commonwealth who sided with that regime. He accused the La Follette faction of practicing Communism. Appeals to Mother He appealed to the "wives and mothers of Wisconsin in his attack on the university. He said: “Why has there been so much emphasis on birth control before groups of Wisconsin sons and daughters who are still in their teens?" “Is the American ideal of the family and the sacredness of the relationship between a man, his wife and their children out-worn and old-fashioned?” He appealed to the workers, thus: “I pledge myself to work untiringly to restore the jobs and earning power to the people, and to fight with all my strength against those, who knowingly or unknowingly are advocating Communistic legislation.” He told the farmers that he believed in a protective American market for them; he told war veterans that he favors immediate cash payment of the bonus; he said he favored immediate settlement of the prohibition question “in accordance with the desires of the majority of the citizens of the respective states.” UTILITIES MAY COME TO REPUBLICANS’ AID Roosevelt Portland Speech Is Seen Spur to Contributions. By Scripps-Howard Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt’s eightpoint program for federal regulation of public utilities is expected by politicians to give impetus to Republican efforts to collect a $1,500,000 campaign fund. The Portland speech, they say, definitely will align public utility and allied interests with President Herbert Hoover and against Roosevelt. Roosevelt, himself, anticipated such a consequence when he told his hearers to judge him by the enemies he has made. Public utility interests long have opposed Roosevelt. Their opposition began soon after he became Governor of New York when he adopted the policy of making the St. Lawrence water power resources available for all New Yorkers’ at the lowest possible cost. ERROR IN ARREST NAME R. E. Layton Manager of Coal Firm That Was Robbed. Through an error, an early edition of The Times Friday stated that R. E. Layton, 1451 North Holmes avenue, had been arrested as a result of theft of coal from yards of the Indianapolis Coal and Fuel Company, 2131 West Michigan street. Raymond Englert, 462 North Belmont avenue, was the man arrested. Layton is manager of the yards and has been with the company more than ten years.

Utah, G. O. P. Stronghold, May Go to Roosevelt

Defeat of Reed Smoot for Senate Is Indicated; Tariff Is Issue. By ray tucker Times Staff Writer SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 24 Although Utah was one of the two states which stayed Republican in 1912, Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt is concided an excellent chance to carry it against President Herbert Hoover in November. Republicans admit they would face defeat if the /lection were today. This mining and 1 sheep-raising state has suffered more acutely that its neighbors. Democratic leaders predict they will defeat Senator Reed Smoot, who is seeking his sixth senate term. He is opposed by Professor Elbert D. Thomas of the University of Utah, who is centering his attack on the tariff law of which Smoot was coauthor. Hoover carried Utah by only 14.000, when mines were gqing full-blast, smelters were on a six-day basis, prices were high, and sheep men were getting good returns. • Now these industries, which supported Hoover in 1928, are flat on their back, and have made no move to aid Smoot ,or Hoover. Out here, the Democrats have .

HOOVERVILLE and Curtisville, the twin communities inhabited by the city’s evicted on the west bank of White river, has a communal mail box today, thanks to salesmen of the Losey, Inc., auto dealers, 1219 North Meridian street. The communities have been havipg trouble for some time obtaining mail service. Living on the banks of White river, with no sidewalks or paved street near, they have been compelled to go to the postoffice for their mail. Uncle Sam told the shantydwellers that if they put up a mail box for the entire community near the Oliver avenue bridge that mail would be left for all residents who signed a petition requesting this type of service. But the rub was the price of a mail box. The motor car salesman heard of the dilemma through stories in The Times, and bought the box and with the assistance of the head of the West Indianapolis postal station placed a shiny new box at the Oliver avenue crossing of the White river. In addition, the salesmen outfitted a penniless widow with eight children in clothing and bedding.

BINDS FIREMAN TO GRAND JURY Cameron Orders Probe of Auto Crash Death. Declaring that any person whose automobile kills another should be held to the grand jury, Municipal Judge Clifton R. Cameron today took that action in the case of John Fahey, 34, of 541 North Dearborn street, a city fireman. Bond was set at $1,500. Charges of drunkenness and drunken driving were dismissed. An automobile driven by Fahey struck and injured fatally William Mankoitz, 50, of 834 South Missouri street, on Aug. 31, while Mankovitz, a city park employe, was watering a parkway in the center of the 500 block Fletcher avenue. At a previous hearing several witnesses asserted Fahey was not drunk and Dr. William E. Arbuckle, coroner, testified that of the six witnesses at the inquest, only one said Fahey was under the influence of liquor.

Japanese Embassy’s Book Defines Manchuria Stand

Document Is Issued on Eve of League of Nations Conference. BY WILLIAM PHILLIP SIMMS Scripps-Howard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—The Japanese embassy here has issued a “white book” setting forth her side of the virtual annexation of Manchuria. Coming as it does on the eve of the showdown at Geneva between Japan and the League of Nations Lo which the league commission, headed by Lord Lytton, has just submitted a voluminous report, the document is considered of unusual importance. The first and largest of the two

made a song, a slogan, and a motionpicture film out of Roosevelt’s “forgotten man” reference. At first Republican newspapers and politicians assailed the term, but it became a boomerang. * It is published now in all Democratic literature, and a fifteenminute eulogy of “The Forgotten Man,” by Mayor Curley of Boston, has been made into a film. Curley, Josephus Daniels and other spellbinders are pouring ridicule on Hoover in speeches. Though Roosevelt made a poor impression when here by not discussing silver at length, he strengthened himself by later speeches. His failure to refer to it in detail is said to be due to a difference of opinion between his academic and political advisers. Democrats are soft-pedalling on tariff and prohibition questions. Although professing to favor a scientific and reasonable tariff, they take the position that Utah's products, must be fully safeguarded under the existing system. The state convention adopted a wet plank, but no stress is being laid on it. Utah voted wet two to one in the Literary Digest poll, but the Mormon church and its adherents are predominantly dry.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

HOOVER FEARS FARMPARADE Concern Develops Over Slated Demonstration. By United Pres* WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—Some concern has developed in administration circles over reports from Des Moines that midwest farm leaders are organizing a demonstration to impress their grievances on President Herbert Hoover when he arrrives there to speak Oct. 4. Arrangements for the trip were to be discussed today with the lowa Republican national committeeman, H. E. Spangler. Originally, it was planned that President Hoover would arrive in Des Moines in the early afternoon and speak at night. Meantime, hostile farm leaders have announced they intended to "stage a demonstration and parade to make known to President Hoover their dissatisfaction with conditions. Mr. Hoover probably will not review the parade. / He may delay his arrival at Des Moines until dinner time. Friends of President Hoover say any demonstration which transgresses upon the dignity of the presidential office or which falls short of traditional lowa hospitality will arouse sympathy for President Hoover. Leaders of the Farmers Holiday Association answered this today by saying they do not care to confer with President Hoover when he is in Des Moines.

volumes, “Document A” is entitled “The Present Condition of. China—with reference to circumstances affecting international relations and the good understanding between nations upon which depends.” , Mongolia Is Included The second, or “Document B” is entitled “Relations of Japan and Manchuria and Mongolia.” While document A sets up the background of anti-foreign activities and general chaos in China, document B makes clear why, in Japanese opinion, both Manchuria and Mongolia must come under the empire’s sway if the empire is to survive. Though the row between Japan and the League of Nations is over Manchuria, the Japanese “white book,” significantly includes Mongolia, linking these two regions as territory which must come under, and remain under Nippon’s future protection. Picture Overpcpulation Document B makes the traditional point of overpopulation, lack of sufficient food for the people and raw materials for Japanese industry. To prevent national strangulation Japan must find an answer to both problems. Manchuria and Mongolia are pictured as the only possible answer. By making these two regions a source of supply of’ the necessaries of life,” the “white book” declares, ‘we shall be able to feel free from apprehensions concerning our national existence.” Japan, it is further declared, “is in a position to remove menace, both external and internal, to the peace and order of Manchuria*and Mongolia.” CHILD HURT IN. CRASH Jane Plummer, 2, Suffers Head Bruises in Accident. Jane Plummer, 2, of 422 Congress avenue, suffered a slight head injury today when the automobile of her father, Roland Plummer, 28, was in collision at Thirty-first street and Boulevard place, in which a truck and another automobile were involved. The truck, driven by Lyman Shears, 26, of 531 Holly avenue, was struck on the side by an automobile driven by Ralph Prather, 17, of 62 East Regent street, and was hurled against Plummer’s car.

SUE CONSTABLE FOR $25,000 IN EVICTION CASE Freeman Is Charged With Forcing Way Into House, Taking Furniture. Alleging that furniture valued at $2,200 and the clothing of four children werq. sent to storage by Charles W. Freeman, “special constable,”' after he forced entrance into a home to serve an eviction writ, suit for $25,000 was filed today . against Freeman and three other defendants in superior court two. Mr. and Mrs. Frank H. Harrington, formerly of 34 South Addison street, filed the suit. Freeman, Thomas S. Crutcher, Warren township justice of peace: Maudie C. Caplinger, and Schmidt & Smith, realtors, are named. Since removal of furniture and clothing from the house, the family has been forced to appeal to the charity organizations for necessities, it is charged. According to thfe suit, the Harringtons held a three-year lease on the home with option to purchase for $3,250 and had paid approximately SI,BOO to Mrs. Caplinger, the owner, through her agents, Schmidt and Smith. Becoming delinquent in his payments because of unemployment since February, Harrington was sued for possession and $312 damages Aug. 30 in Crutcher's court and the summons was served Sept. 2 to appear Sept. 5, according to allegations. The summons was served while Harrison was absent, he asserts. At loss as how to proceed with the defense, Mrs. Harrington went to the offices of the realty firm, according to the complaint, and explained her husband's absence. She was assured court action would be deferred until his return, the suit alleges. On Sept. 5, however, the possession order and damages was granted by Crutcher by default. Freeman was delegated special constable to carry out the court order, which was done on Sept. 15, while Harrington still was absent from the city and while his wife was away from home, the court declared. Freeman was arrested Sept. 15 on a charge of assault and battery on a man and woman during an eviction at 806 Coffey street. He is at liberty under SI,OOO bond pending trial of the case, which has been continued in court of Municipal Judge Clifton R. Cameron.

hoover assailed by M’NUTT AND MANION G. O. P, Administration Bitterly Flailed at Goshen Rally. By Times Special GOSHEN, Sept. 24.—“Ineffectuality and gross stupidness” of the Hoover administration were assailed by Paul V. McNutt, Governor nofcninee, and Clarence L. Manion, Notre Dame law professor, in addresses at a Democratic rally here this afternoon. . “If conditions today amount to normalcy, then let’s get rid of normalcy and back to the happy days such as we had under Woodrow Wilson,” asserted McNutt. “Decreased incomes and decreased abilities to pay on the part of the taxpayers have been met by President Hoover with greatly increased expenditures on the part of the federal establishment. This business of burning the revenue candle at both ends is a copyrighted Hoover engineering formula, Manion declared. GUARD HOME OF JUDGE Chicago Jurist Gets Personal Police Guard After Bombing.

President Hoover Ahead in Digest’s Straw Vote

Roosevelt, However, Gains in Shift of G. 0. P. Supporters. Scattered returns in the national straw vote conducted by the Literary Digest, and announced in today’s issue, show that President Hoover has a slight lead over his Democratic opponent, Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt. Os the 60,327 ballots returned, 28,193 are for Hoover arid 27,654 are for Roosevelt. Remainder of the ballots have been cast for five candidates of minor parties, with Norman Thomas, Socialist candidate, receiving the largest share. The slight national lead of Hoover is reflected in Indiana in the first returns, with Hoover receiving 1,109 votes to Roosevelt’s 907. Analysis of the Indiana vote shows, however, that Roosevelt gained in the swing from former allegiances. Comparison of the votes cast in the 1928 poll shows that 290 Republican votes then have been given to Roosevelt this year, while only ninety-five Democratic votes in 1928 have shifted to Hoover.

Toad Gulps Alligator ; in Laboratory Tragedy ’ By Science Service GLASGOW, Sept. 24.—1f Jonah had swallowed the whale, that would have been real news. A somewhat similar feat in the lower animal world has been accomplished by a toad that swallowed an alligator. A short time ago, reports Dr. C. W. Parsons of the University of Glasgow, four giant toads from South America were received by his department. They were six inches long and three inches wide. They were put in the same vivarium with a couple of young alligators, about eleven inches long. For a time all went well. The toads dug burrows in the sand, and fed contentedly o the semi-cannibalistic diet of frogs which was offered them. The alligators basked on the roof of a shelter, or swam about In the water. Both parties ignored each other. Then came a morning when Dr. Parsons sought the ’gators, to remove them to anew home. He found only one of them, though he searched the laboratory high and low. On suspicion he X-rayed the four toads. Sure enough, a dark shadow in one of them betrayed the whereabouts of the luckless young alligator.

The largest block of votes shifted in the present poll is the 5,212 Republican ballots in Pennsylvania which this year go to Roosevelt. Only 412 Democratic 1928 votes turned to Hoover this year.

However, first returns from New York show Hoover leading, 14,933 to 11,910. In the five states reported this week, 10,927 former Republican votes are gained by Roosevelt, with 1,738 Democratic votes going to Hoover this year. Hoover leads in total vote in New York and Indiana, with Roosevelt ahead in Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia.
