Bond Goes Up]
Alleged “Court Threat - Costs Man His Freedom.
AVID WARE, 524 E. Miami-st, was waiting in his cell this afternoon for some one to sigh his $2000 bond. It happened like this: Ware, defendant in an assault “and battery case, had been free on $50 bond. An affidavit, signed by George Swaim, 1320 Burdsalipkwy, had been filed’ against him July 13. When the case was called today, Swaim was unable to ‘leave the hospital, and Judge Charles Karabell granted a continuance. Then L. M. Trotter, R. R. 11, Box 207, | told the judge prosecuting wit=] nesses were being intimidated. “Any time you're intimidated you just let me know.” Karabell, “and I'll put a quick stop to that.” = A few minutes later, Ware is reported to have met Mr. Trotter at the courtroom door. Mr. Trotter suddenly grabbed Ware and hauled him-back before the judge. “Your honor,” said Mr. Trotter, “he just told me, ‘If you don’t let’ me alone I'll put you out of busi‘ness.’ "” “Well, we'll just raise his bond to $2000,” said Judge Karabell. That's why Ware is sitting on the inside this nice afternoon.

Alfonso Is Ready if
‘Spanish People Call
(Copyright, 1936, by United Press) .DELLACH, Austria, Aug. 28.— Former King Alfonso has taken no part in the Spanish civil war, will take none, and would consider returning to Spain only at the expressed wish of the Spanish people after all the issues have been decided, he said today in a statement to.the United Press.
: He disposed of rumors regarding |
Bis (activities and intentions in an exclusive statement through Marquis De Viana, his confidential secretary:
“His Majesty wishes it-to be made known once for all that he has taken
no part whatever in the revolt.
“When the civil war ends, the country will require a period during which a military dictatorship must govern the country to restore tranquility. That is the plan of Gen. Francisco Franco and his supportIt is a plan fully approved by His Majesty. “After a period of. a year, or maybe more, when complete order has been established the country ought to be called- upon by plebiscite to decide what form of government it desires—whether republic or monarchy. If the answer is for monarchism the King is ready. In no' other circumstances will His Majesty go back.”
Neither Side ‘Gaining in Spain’s Civil War . By United Press LISBON, Aug. 28—Spain's civil war was a confusion of battles, sieges, marches and countermarches, complicated by conflicting wireless claims of victory, at its sixth week ended today. The main fighting was at Irun, key to the San Sebastian area, where rebels for the third day:=attacked the city and "still had not penetrated it or, apparently, weakened the Loyalist defense. § ‘White flags were seen fluttering from private homes on the outskirts of rebel-held Oviedo in the north, and they were believed an indication that the civil population was weakening in face of the long nerve-wracking siege by..Asturias miners. The Madrid government announces the arrival of Marcel Rgsenberg, Russia's first .ambassador to Spain since the World War. | It was regarded an important diplomatic development at a time when other countries are emptying their embassies and some even closing them. Dispatches from Rome ahnounced
‘| that Italy has applied an embargo
against shipment of arms to Spain. The act was seen as a big factor in lessening international tension.

S far as William Matthews is concerned, Mrs. Mattie Golder has no sense of humor. About - 4 a. m. today, Mrs. Golder, who lives at 1131 S, Tremont, was sleeping on the front room floor, she told police.. She called “Who's there,” but evidently the noisemaker h not heard of the game for he didn't bother to answer, she said. A_ little later, she discovered a strange pair of shoes on the front porch.

That is the contrast you get when
| joining the Roosevelt party in the
heart of the North Dakota waste places, desolate with drought, after hurrying across country by train and plane from a week with Gov. Landon in his invasion of the East. There, essentially, is the fundamental fact of the campaign — Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Groton and. Harvard graduate with his
. Eastern accent, depending on the
great farm country of West and South as the back-log of strength to send him back to the White House; plain Alf Landon, who has spent. most of his life in the rural atmosphere, seeking the favor of the great industrial states of the East. plus what he might win in the farm country to put him over.
Rain Dries Out
Before reaching this capital of North Dakota you feel the ravage which the drought has wrought. From the air your eyes can see the handiwork of the sun. There is no greenness in the neat patfern beneath—only the washed-out yellow and brown of blasted wheat and corn. The colors have faded. The blessing of rain came to Minnesota and eastern North Dakota during the day. But it stopped before it got here. At the Bismarck airport stood a deputy sheriff with a big gun on his belt. - “It looked like we were going to get it—but it never came,” he said disconsolately. Arriving in the city, you find a great crowd gathering about the rear of the President's train. He has been out during the afternoon looking over the devastation. The crowd finally is rewarded. The President, returns, waving his hand. He steps onto the back p atform and speaks briefly. He outlines the . Administrations objectives in solving the problems created by the drought.

He holds out hope. He knows that these people will stay in this country and will ‘lick the drought.
An hour later it begins to rain. They call it Roosevelt luck. Boose. velt is the rainmaker, He stands before the crowd, full master of himself,” with his engaging smile, his skillful wave of a hand. Here in the Roosevelt camp you find the assurance of those who are “in,” who have the confidence that comes of that. the Administration surrounded by its experts—Secretary Wallace, Rex Tugwell, Harry Hopkins; Morris L, Cooke, men who have all the angles of this problem at their fingertips. » Outside the train walk sentinels of the regular Army.

Shortly after 4 this morning, Margaret, who, by the way, is just 2, arose from bed and left home. She bothered with no detail, not even the conventional one of dressing. So, a few minutes later, Henry Thies, North Mansfield, Ill, driving along State Road 52, saw 2-year-old Margaret walking down the highway, away from home, a perambulating September Morn.

RARE FORM OF BLOOD POISON
Faces Certain Death Unless ;
Right Blood Donor Is Found, Claim.

Ry United Press CHICAGO, Aug. 28 ~Brightseyed
land cheérful, T7-year-old Philip
Levitt faced almost certain death today from a rare form of blood poisoning. 2 His one chance of survival, physie
cians said, lay in finding some pers
son who had recovered from the disease, or is immunized against it, and is willing to give blood for a transfusion.
Dr. Paul Sahlins said he had no' record of any person ever having
recovered from the infection. It is
a disease of the lining of the heart
caused by streptococci viridans and’ pours poison into the “blood, al. physician said. Philip may live several w several months, but he is. to die unless the right blo6d donor is found soon, Dr. SaHhlins said. Dozens of persons whd have sufe fered from other forms of strepe tococci infection offered blood toe day, but the shysians stressed the fact that the donor must have had Phillip’s partictlar kind. of blood poisoning.
Thi He'll Get Well
The bo§’s parents, Morris and Fay Levitt, have been inoculated with a vacciie made from Phillip’s blood, But’ it will take a month for their blood to build up resistance against fhe’ infection so that they .might
give the transfusion. By that time
it may be too late or Phillip may be too weak to receive the blood. : Although Phillip is not. in
now, he knows he is fighting for his
life. Dr. Sahlins -said it is only a question of time before pieces break
off from the ning of his heart,
