He emphasized his own desire for a liberal government that would be “based on principles that have stood the test of time and experience; that would be progressive application of old truths.” After his speech at Kendallville Gov.

Midwest Swinging to G. 0. P., Knox Says

Times Specinl WASHINGTON, Ind, Oct. 15.--The political trend of the Middle West is swinging toward the Republican Party, Col. Frank Knox declared from the rear platform of his train as it made three stops in southern Indiana yesterday. “1 think the reason for the swing is that farmers have more confidence in Gov. Landon than they have in a man who has done his farming by proxy from Hyde Park,” the Republican vice presidential nominee said. A crowd estimated at nearly 1000 greeted the Chicago -publisher when he stopped here.

will make a platform address. He will make a similar appearance at Pontiac and will leave his train at Flint to speak in Atwood Stadium. Tonight the President will speak at Hamtramck and rush to Detroit for his major address in the state. Mr. Roosevelt set out on his Michigan conquest with the cheers of nearly a million Chicagoans ringing in his ears. All the trappings of a No. 1 political rally were turned loose as he drove through the streets of the Midwestern metropolis. Aerial bombs, colored lights, red fire and placards emblazoned the route. At least 100,000 tried to jam into the stadium with its 25,000 capacity, to the dismay of 1500 policemen who finally gave it up for a bad job and “let the best man win.” : In the stadium, Mr. Roosevelt blasted Republican leadership and claimed credit for “saving the sys- | tem of private profit and free enter-

He preached this gospel throughout the farmlands and cities of the West. “You look happier today than you did four years ago.” Exultant cheers roar from the throats of hundreds of thousands— eager throngs that pass in review as the train pulls into small towns and then press excitedly about the back platform to hang on to his words; miles and miles of humanity, three and four deep, along the St. Paul, Omaha, Denver, Kansas City, ‘St. Louis, Chicago; shouting multifudes packed tighter than sausages up to the rafters of .auditoriums and under the stars in giant stadiums,

business fears by saying he was not against free enterprise, only against its abuse by concentrated wealth and monopoly. He is not against all big business men, all bankers, all multimillionaires, only those who abuse their power and trust. All issues of this campaign are disintegrating before one—prosperity. He tells the people they are better off. Their smiling faces reflect his words; their cheers echo thzir satisfaction. : : For - this reason, perhaps, the Roosevelt tour is like a great car= nival.

McNutt Challenges Springer

to Debate Campaign Issues|

Governor Invites Discussion at Any Time and Place as He Answers Questions at Open Forum.

Gov. McNutt challenged Raymond S. Springer Republican nominee for Governor, to a public debate on the issues of the campaign at an open air meeting of the Fifteenth Ward at South and New Jersey-sts

last night.

“I challenge Mr. Springer to meet me any time and place before the election and have a debate—I want the people to know the facts,”

the Governor said.

Holding one of his open forum

meetings, Gov. McNutt answered questions shouted to him from the large audience around the platform. To an advocate of old-age pensions, Gov. McNutt said: “The Social Security Act pro¥ides ior pensions of $30 a month. I was the fir:t Governor to sign a pension bill in Indiana, and I'll go as far with you as our resources permit.”

Answers Lemke Query

“What about Bill Lemke (Union Party nominee for Presiden)?” a man in the rear of the crowd yelled. “Every one is entitled to his own

political beliefs in the United States, but Mr. Lemke hasn't the slightest chance of = being President,” the Governor replied. “A vote . for, Mr. Lemke is half a vote for Gov. Landon. Just remember that President Roosevelt is the friend of the poor man.” When a heckler asked, “Where's Pleas?” the Governor replied, ‘Pleas Greenlee is out on the stump for the Dereptate: That's where he should ” The Governor, who was introduced as the presidential nominee in 1940, good-naturedly evaded questions as to what his plans were for next year and 1940. To a merchant, who asked about proposed rewriting of the gross income tax law, Gov. McNutt answered, - “It isn’t the gross income tax that is causing the trouble in the retail business. . It's the fierce competition over price, which the NRA would have eliminated. : : “The door is always open to every one with suggestions for more gquit-

able taxes. We have committees out |

talked of a .permanent - prosperity, of renovating this economic system so that the rise and fall of the business ‘curve will be obiiterated and there will be economic balance. This

leaders have seen across the horizon. - That's natural in a political year, : : He does not tell how he would do it. As a matter of fact he has said nothing of his future plans in .this campaign. He has advanced noth-

ing new. . He has stood on his rec-.

ord and that has seemed sufficient to the crowds which heard him.

“What about the Two Per Cent Club?” some one shouted. “It takes money to operate political machinery,” Gov. McNutt replied. “The Republicans used to pass the hat to those who expected favors from the administration. “I decided that the state should not be obligated to any one. I let the state employes pay and why shouldn’t_ they? In 1932 the Republicans asked 5 per cent. We've cut the cost both of state government and political machinery.” A display of party harmony was. presented when EB. Kirk McKinney, a defeated candidate for Governor, praised the record of Lieut. Gov. M. Clifford Townsend, the gubernatorial nominee, ~ The Governor demanded that Mr. Springer “lay his cards on the table” and explain the Republican tax program.

“Mr. Springer says he'll cut the-

cost of state government $10,000,000, when the budget calls for only $13,-

000,000. Is he going to close the’

penal’ institutions, the hospitals and the colleges? =~ “He was talking the other day about the state-owned autos. Most of them went to the State Police and to the Highway Department. Is Raymond going to put the state police on foot? Can't you see the boys on the Brady hunt thumbing a ride. You can run a campaign on hot air, but you can’t run a Siate government that way.”

It Can Happen Here

** When a movie company sought recently. to produce Sinclair Lewis’ latest best seller, Will Hays, czar of filmdom, said in effect, “It Can't Happen Here.” And that was that. When, however, it comes .to. a. matter of producing results, Times Want ads say emphatically “It Can Happen Here.” And it does . day in and day out for all kinds of advertisers.

Say Friends as London Gossips ‘About * Divorce Suit.

(Con tinued from Page One)

Spencer & Young, decided ry 0 contest divorce and will enter no def e against a charge of inwith a co-respondent ‘cited in the suit. assizes start Oct. 27 and the suit will be heard on that day or later in the session. As it is undefended, it will be most brief —probably confined to testimony of two witnesses who must give evidence, acceptable to the court, that Mr. Simpson was seen in chreunstances that left no alternative te belief in the wife's charges of misconduct.

-There was always slight possibility, legal. authorities informed the, United Press, that the case might be withdrawn from the court unheard, especially because efforts to keep it secret failed.

British News Reports. Brief

Any report in a British newspaper would have to be confined to the limits of the divorce law—stating the principals in the case and the names of witnesses and following with a verbatim report—or a condensation of it—of the judge's summing up when he gives his verdict. " This law was passed several years ago, because of the great frankness with which certain British newspapers reported details of divorce suits. The usual procedure in undefended cases is for the’ defendant—Mr, Simpson—to remain away from court and for the plaintiff —Mrs. Simpson—to testify briefly. Witnesses as to alleged misconduct would follow. Justice Hawke, who is to hear the Simpson-Simpson case, is Sir Anthony Hawke. Before he became 2 judge of the King’s bench division of the high courts in 1928 he was attorney general to the then Prince of Wales.

Sometime in 1933, King Edward, the Prince of Wales, met Mrs. Simpson, now 40, two years his junior. Princess after princess eligible to marry a Protestant British monarch married - elsewhere. The Prince of Wales led a hard life, riding, golfing, steeplechasing, attending ship launchings, corner stone layings, official dinners, occasionally cruising off on a great warship to one of the dominions; diverting himself as he could. He was fond of dancing, but the. women wtih whom he daficed seemed rather dance partners than companions. - A few months ago, after his accession to the throne when privacy became impossible, the King's friendship for Mrs. Simpson began to cause talk, King Edward found the vivacious American, the Baltimore girl who married an American naval officer and was divorced from him, a friend whose high spirits were a tonic. His life was a strenuous one. The then Prince and Mrs. Simpson were seen on. the continent at Riviera resorts and elsewhere, in

at Budapest, at Biarritz, at the Grand National Steeplechase . in England. Then the Prince became King, and Mrs. Ernest Simpson was mentioned in the court circular—the little official budget of royal news issued each night for publication in the newspapers.

Future of Kis Edward. “and Mrs. Simpson Brings Comment.

By U nited Preas + YORK, Oct. N filing of a divorce suit by one “W. Simpson” against one “E. Simpson” in the Assize Court at Ipswich, England, where Mr. Pickwick had his adventure with a lady in yellow curl papers a century ago, caused discussion~in this country today of King Edward's future. England's one-time Prince Charming is a monarch of 42, a bachelor. His heir is his brother, the Duke of York. The second heir is Princess Elizabeth, the Duke's 12-year-old daughter. His younger daughter, Princess Margaret Rose, is 6—and Britons question whether the Duchess will ‘have another child who, if a son, would insure the male succession.

Bluntly, these questions arise:

1. What will be Mrs. Simpson's status in England assuming that her close friendship with the King continues? 2. Will King Edward ever contract a royal marriage which “would provide a direct heir for the throne?

3. If he does not contract a royal marriage, is there to be another Queen Elizabeth, the selfconfident little maiden now who looks like Queen Mary? There was a day when England’s kings did exactly as they liked and even beheaded a wife whom they found inconvenient. But that was long, long ago. Companionships between kings and beautiful women were the rule. King Charles II established a tabloid peerage by granting titles to his sons by Nell Gwynn and others. As late as the time of King George IV the insistence of monarchs on leading their own lives brought into the British royal family the morganatic marriage. z =» » Ss

T 21, in 1783, the “first gentleman: of Europe,” then Prince of Wales, fell deeply in love with Mrs. Mary Anne Fitzherbert, six years his senior. Not only was she a commoner, granddaughter of a baronet, but she was a Roman Catholic and therefore doubly ineligible to be wife of a future King. Her second husband died a couple of years before George fell in love with her.

Dec. 15, 1785, George and Mrs. Fitzherbert were married secretly by a Church of England clergyman. - Everybody was pledged to secrecy because by strict interpretation of law the marriage might have barred George from succession to the throne. Attempts were made to deny the marriage; George broke’ with Mrs. Fitzherbert in 1794 when he contracted a new love; he renewed it in 1800 ~and broke it again, finally, later for another new love. : There was considerable sympathy for Mrs. Fitzherbert antl she was honored in her refirement at Brightoh. She died in 1837. King William 1V, who succeeded George, offered to make

Taxpayers Flay Proposed. Tax Rate Increases at Meeting.

Although the meeting was called to review the county auditor's budget figures, the Indianapolis cify and Marion County Welfare Board - budgets approved. by county board were targets of vigor=! ous attacks at a State Tax hearing in the Statehouse today.

The proposed welfare budget and’ 21-cent increase in the school budget were opposed by Harry Miese. Indiana Taxpayers Association secretary, and several North Side

women. i Mr. ‘Miese said: “I am opposed to keeping large sums in the welfare treasury, because it invites persons to ask favors.” He said bonds coud: be sold to make up funds In an emergency. - “I am not at all happy: with thet : entire Marion County welfare set< up,” Mr. Miesse said. Mrs. H. B. Marks, 4265 N. Pennsylvania-st, added: “I don’t like it either. There are even mahogany furnishings and expensive carpets in the headquarse ters.” Opposes Borrowing

The welfare budget was defended by Fabian Biemer, deputy. county auditor, on the grounds that sup= porting the poor relief and old-age assistance through borrowing was unwise. Because the hearing was net held to discuss the welfare budget and because the welfare budget director, Joel Baker, was not present to defend it, Al Walsman, state tax board member in charge of the hearing, suggested that the representatives confine their discussion to a review. of the auditor's accounts. He said that if more discussion of the wel« fare budget was desired another hearing could be set when Mr. Baker cculd- be present. Mr. Miese and Mrs. C. A. Hilgena berg, 1428 Park-av, and Joe Schmid, real estate man, opposed the pro= posed 21-cent increase. in -school budget. The proposed. increase rep= resents all but 2 cents in the proe posed tax rate increase for Indian= apolis residents of Center Township.

Citicises Comparisons --

When the Indianapolis school rate was compared to other cities of ap< proximately the same population in an effort to show that it was high, Mr. Walsman pointed out that such a comparison should not be. made with cities. with much higher property valuations and where thers were heavy. parochial school popuia« tions. “In the cities with more natural and property wealth,” Mr. Wals« man said, “almost the greatest cost to taxpayers in school budget is teachers’ salaries.” The school city rate as approved by the Marion County Tax Ade justment Board was $1.10, compared with the current levy of 89 cents. School = authorities explained the increase was due largely to a sched< uled $875,000 building program. The hearing on the city civil bude get, seheduled for the afternoon, was postponed until tomerrow, when further hearings on the school a“ budget also are to be held.
