LEMKE BACKERS

Coughlin Is Stricken While| M

-Speaking in Cleveland; Townsend in Quiz.

By United Press CLEVELAND, Aug. 17.—The i{llness of one leader and the legal difficulties of another hampered today the two largest organizations backing William Lemke’s presidential candidacy. The Rev. Charles E. Coughlin, president and virtual dictator of the National Union for Social Justice, was stricken here yesterday in the midst of an appeal for Rep. Lemke to 25,000 followers massed in Cleve“land’s Municipal Stadium. He has been ordered to rest a week, and he | returned to Detroit. Dr, Francis E. Townsend, founder of Old Age Revolving Pensions, Ltd., and leader of the pension clubs which have informally indorsed Mr. Lemke’s candidacy, is defending his stewardship of the organization's funds, approximately $1,000,000. Suit for an accounting is ‘pending against him.

Assisted From Platform

Father Coughlin’s N. U. 8. J. convention came to an abruptly dramatic conclusion yesterday in the sunswept stadium when the exhausted and perspiring priest faltered and was assisted from the platform. His illness was considered no more seriout than the physical disorder which follows over-exhaustion and loss of sleep over a long period. But he had won the objectives set for the convention which met here Friday. Pausing often to boo and jeer President Roosevelt and others who have opposed the priest's legislative program, the Coughlin convention performed the tasks assigned to it: 2. Elected Father Coughlin president of N. U. 8, J. 2. Indorsed Mr. Lemke for President of the United States. 3. Organized on a permanent basis. 4. Began to raise funds for the priest's campaign broadcasts.

Dr. Townsend Misses Hearing, Arrest Asked

By United Press CLEVELAND, Aug. 17.—A citation for arrest of Dr. Francis E. Townsend was sought today from Common Pleas Court Judge George Kerr when the pension planner failed to appear for a resumed hearing into the methods of collecting and spending Old-Age Revolving Pension funds. Assailing Dr. Townsend, Attorney Benjamin F. Sacharow charged that the doctor had no respect for the courts of America and that the investigation could not proceed without his arrest. He also sought a citation for the arrest of Gilmour Young, national secretary of O. A. R. P. Charles H. Hubbell, acting for Dr. Townsend, displayed a telegram saying that Dr. Townsend was ill in Chicago and requesting a delay until Thursday.

By United Press HONG KONG, Aug. 17—A typhoon roared southward down the Chinese coast with diminishing force today after flattening large parts of Hong Kong's native settlement, killing at least 10 persons— possibly many more—and driving nearly two score ships and fishing craft ashore. At the storm’s height a wind of 131 miles an hour battered Hong Kong, British fortified island with 10,000 resident Europeans and nearly 300,000 natives. The colony was littered with wreckage. Flimsy Chinese tenements collapsed. Seven ships went ashore in the harbor and only the daring of the crew of a police launch, naval authorities said, saved 150 passengers and the crew of the British S. S. Sunning.
