BY JAMES DOSS Tlm* Staff Writer LAKE JAMES, Ind., April 7. — Warring candidates for Democratic nominations, particularly for Governor. today considered the warning (of Omer Stolces Jackson. Democratic state chairman, that they (keep their political differences from iendangering the party. I Six hundred Fourth District I Democrats, gatnercd here last night I for the scheduled, but unfulfilled, I appearance of the three candidates [ f° r nomination as Governor on the Rime platform, heard the warning, i!. Kirk McKinney was not present. They also heard Mr. Jackson say that he will not be a dark horse candidate for Governor in case the June convention winds up in a deadlock. Many political observers, including some candidates, are believed to have looked upon Mr. Jackson as a potential winning dark horse. Greenlea Avoids Fireworks Pleas Greenlee, ousted patronage secretary of Gov. McNutt, who has stirred his followers in the campaign with his attacks against “McHalelsm,” avoided that subject in his address. This was not unexpected, inasmuch as the meeting was not his rally. He was one of a dozen or more candidates on the platform. Mr. Greenlee repeated that he is a Jackson and Jefferson Democrat, and believes in equal opportunity for all. He also mentioned again several of his campaign planks, including a larger mortgage exemption and changing of the alleged inequalities in the gross income tax law. Lieut. Gov. M. Clifford Townsend said, "We enter this campaign with a smile. We do not fear the result in November because we, both in state and nation, can stand on the results the Democratic Party has achieved.” Lauds Job Insurance Bill Ha praised particularly the unemployment insurance bill. "It is termed an unemployment insurance bill, but we really should call it a job insurance bill,” he said. Ted Wood, Angola attorney and son of George Alphonse Wood of the Appellate Court acted as toastmaster. Also present were James I. Farley, the incumbent; Thomas Riddle Ray, and Circuit Judge Clarence McNabb of Fort Wayne, candidates for nomination to Congress from the district. Perry Faulkner, now a resident j of Ohio, but a former state commander of the Indiana Legion, ! made the principal address. McNulty Opens Drive "If elected to the office of prosecutor I would have the courage to find out if Pleas Greenlee is telling the truth in his charges of Me-i Haleism.” With this declaration.fi Thomas | McNulty, Republican, today opened a drive for the post of Marion County prosecutor. Prosecutor Herbert Spencer, Dem- j ocratic candidate for renomination to the post, declined to comment on Mr. McNulty’s statement. In un address last night at the Fourteenth Ward Republican Club, Kentucky-av and Morris-st, Mr. McNulty cited the charges of "McHaleism” made by Mr. Greenlee, Democratic gubernatorial candiddate, and asserted "the prosecutor of this county is duty bound to find out if these charges are true and if they are true, to see that any one guilty of misconduct in state affairs is prosecuted to the full extent of the law.”

DENIES PARTICIPATION IN PRIMARY CAMPAIGN Citizens’ School Committee Backs No Candidate, Evans Says. The Citizens’ School Committee today denied it was supporting any candidate in the primary. The executive committee, headed by Edgar Evans, stated, In part: "It has come to the attention of the members of the executive committee of the Citizens’ School Committee that rumors are being circulated to the effect that the committee is supporting the candidacy of certain individuals for nomination to various offices to be filled by both parties at the forthcoming primary. These rumors are absolutely without foundation in Thomas McNulty, a candidate for the Republican nomination for prosecutor, recently charged that the Citizens’ School Committee was backing the candidacy of John L. Niblack for the same office. Mr. Niblack also is a Republican. BURGLARS DISDAIN GUM Ransack Horn*?, Scatter Packages Through Rooms.

WIFE GRILLED IN SLAYING OF STATE FARMER Roadside Quarrel Ends in Shooting at Brownsburg Filling Station. lime Sp idal DANVILLE. Ind., April 7.—Prosecutor John Kendall today questioned Mrs. Gertrude Black, 45, in connection with the fatal shooting of her husband last night in what is claimed to have been the climax to a prolonged family quarrel. He would attempt to learn, he said, how Mrs. Black obtained possession of the gun she is alleged to have used when she fled from her farmer husband into a gasoline station near Brownsburg, firing as she ran. One bullet struck Mr. Black, causing instant death, Prosecutor Kendall said. Authorities were told that Mr. Black pursued his wife by auto last night after she and her 11-year-old daughter by a former marriage drove from the farm home en route to Indianapolis to attend church services. Mr. Back is said to have overtaken his wife a short distance out of Brownsburg, and after an argument in the highway, followed Mrs. Black as she drove back toward town. The two cars stopped at a Brownsburg filling station, where the argument was renewed and Mr. Black is reported to have struck his wife. According to Marshall Wiley, she then ran into the station, firing twice as her husband entered the doorway. One bullet entered Mr. Black’s body just below the heart. The other went wild.
