KIDNEY Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, June 13—Rejoicln prevailed today throughout the Hoosier congressional delegation on the selection of Sherman Minton as Democratic nominee for United ■ States senator. In the house, where all Indiana members are Democrats, universal approval was expressed along with gratification to learn that Governor Paul V. McNutt dominates the party. Many of the members were torn between McNutt’s leadership and that claimed by R. Earl Peters and are glad that the decision is made and they now know whom to follow. Senator Arthur R. Robinson, Republican opponent of Mr. Minton, merely said: “I know Sherman Minton very Well; well enough in fact, to call him by his nickname ‘Shay’. He is a splendid chap and will make an excellent campaign.” Representative Arthur Greenwood, Democratic whip, paid high tribute to Minton. ‘‘Mr. Minton is a very fine choice,” Mr. Greenwood said. “He is a war veteran with a splendid record, which should be especially effective in combating the constant appeal to the soldier vote made by his opponent, Senator Robinson. Mr. Minton is a dynamic speaker who can well defend the record of both the state and national Democratic administrations.” Other members interviewed said: Mrs. Virginia Jenckes: “Sherman Minton will be an excellent leader and I am confident of his success. His public service commission experience indeed will be valuable to the nation in dealing with similar economic problems and particularly with President Roosevelt’s plans for water power development.” Glenn Griswold: “It was a good choice. Mr. Minton has done notable work with the public service commission and has proven his ability as a distinguished and able lawyer. His war record is of the best.” John W. Boehne Jr.: “I am positive that Mr. Minton’s selection means success this fall. It is a victory and vindication for the administration of Governor Paul V. McNutt.” Eugene B. Crowe: “It’s great. Mr. Minton is competent and will grace the senate with ability and dignity. He is brilliant and well educated and a veteran with a splendid war record.” Candidate May Resign Sherman Minton, Democratic candidate for United States senator, 1 either will resign or take a leave of absence from his position as public counselor before the public serv-

KILLER'S FAIR WIFE PRIMPS SELFFOR TRIAL Jail Officials, However, May Refuse Her Services of Beautician. By United Press DEDHAM, Mass., June 13.—Norma Brighton Millen, 19, whose life until last November was that of young girls the country over, is to go on trial a week from today as radiantly beautiful as she can make herself. The minister’s daughter, charged with being an accessory after the fact to a murder engineered by her husband, Murton Millen, machine gun killer, has been taking sun baths in the tree-lined yard of Dedham jail. She has asked her father, the Rev. Norman Brighton, to secure for her the services of a “beautician” for her appearance in the same court
where her husband, his brother Irving, and Abraham Faber, were convicted last week as killer-bandits. Norma, voted the prettiest girl in her class at Natick high school, where she took part in dramatics, may not get the services of her much-desired “beautician” because jail officials at Dedham do not care to give her more privileges than other prisoners enjoy. Born in Fargo Norma was born in Fargo, N. D„ in> 1915. When Norma was 2 her father entered the Y. M. C. A. war service and was assigned as an instructor at Camp Beauregard. In 1919 he came to Boston and Norma attended various public schools and finally a private school. Five years ago the Brighton family established itself in Natick, where Norma entered high school. About the time Norma was making a name for herself as a local beauty, winning friends by her winsome charm, her sister Thelma vanished and has not since been heard from. Family Was Disrupted Norma herself disappeared last September. That was after she met Murt at a Nantasket Beach dance. She had been spending the weekend at the beach with her mother,

a nurse, and Mu/t offered to driv<| them home to Natick. During her disappearance Norma was at the Millen home in Roxbury. She married Murt in November. What attracted her to the sleek", • vicious Murt has never been clear. It .may be told at the trial. Her family had been disrupted by divorce and by the sudden tragedy of Thelma’s disappearance. She tried to divide her time between her father and mother. She may have grown w r eary of all that. WEIRTON TRIAL SEPT. 15 Federal Judge Sets Date for Case at Wilmington.
