0’Conor Says McNutt Is Strong in East and McHale Agrees.’

(Photos, Page Nine)

By NOBLE REED Indiana Democrats today hailed their party as something more than mere political philosephy—they found they could tura it into cold cash at the rate of $26,000 per meal. That was the gross “take” at the first annual Jackson Day banquet at the Claypool Hotel last night

when 1050 Democrats laid $25 each on the line for a chunk of steak and the usual trimmings. ; It was the first campaign fund raising stunt of its kind staged in Indiana, and the crowd cheered when E. Kirk McKinney, banquet manager, announced that Indiana’s quota of $23,000 net proceeds, ordered by the National Democratic Committee, had gone over the top with plenty to spare.

It’s Free to O’Conor

All the party bigwigs were there— from Governor M. Clifford Townsend on down—and the only one who escaped paying the $25 was Governor Herbert R. O’Conor of Maryland, the principal speaker. Governor O’Conor prophesied that President Roosevelt's New Deal will go down in history as a masterpiece of humanitarianism like that founded by Andrew Jackson more than 100 years ago and by Thomas Jefierson before him. “Jefferson’s’ doctrine that ‘the freedom and happiness of man are the sole objects of all government’ was echoed by Jackson and has been enunciated in action, as well as by word, by President Roosevelt,” he said.

Commends Pump-Priming

Describing New Deal accomplishments he said: “The gambling with other people’s money by unscrupulous bankers and stockbrokers was effectively stopped. The pump-priming activities of government undoubtedly have started the wheels of industry moving forward and the Federal projects have tided over muchneeded activities in various sections of the country. “The Democratic party was built upon the never-shifting principle that government belongs to the people and it has continued to exist because of its response to progressive and liberal ideas. “Let us re-dedicate ourselves to the ideals of democracy as symbolized by Jackson, by ‘Jefferson and by President Roosevelt.”

McNutt Wires

Governor. O’Conar told the group that Social Security Administrator

Maryland, and added that “we look upon your favorite son as one of the outstanding leaders of democracy in the country.” Frank M, McHale, national committeeman and RH dent campaign manager, read a telegram from Mr. McNutt in which the administrations of Governors O’Conor and Townsend, and the national administration, were praised. After predicting that Mr. McNutt would be the next President, Mr. McHale said more than “60,000 Democrats, and Republicans, in Indiana have contributed to the Paul V. McNutt campaign fund.” “The people of Indiana want the nation to know that we have a leader to carry on the great humanitarian program of President Franklin D. Roosevelt,” Mr, McHale said. Governor Townsend and State Chairman Fred F. Bays spoke briefly, preceding a vaudeville program.

Republicans Consume 25 Quarts of Milk and Snap At Administration.

By EARL RICHERT It’s true, folks, Republicans have eaten crackers and milk. : Mark Hanna, Bill McKinley and Silent Cal Coolidge may be gathering ethereal forces this morning te restore the full dinner pail to its proper G. O. P. pedestal, but the deed’s done anyway. As Democrats dined on the mez-

zanine floor of the Claypool Hotel on thick seals at $25 per plate, 300 prosperous-looking Marion County Young Republicans, trying hard to look lean, dined and wined on crackers and milk last night on the ninth floor of the same hotel at 25 cents a bowl. A total of $75—minus the cost of 11: boxes of crackers and 25 quarts of milk—was sent into the Indiana G. O. P. treasury by the 300 Republicans who dieted. They thought it was a great stunt. Worth eating crackers and milk for —Jjust think of all the publicity, and oh the Democrat’s Jackson Day, 00. $20 Via Telephone

And it evidently was a great stunt, for a telephone call came in from an Illinois businessman asking President Ralph Hamill if he needed any money for Marion County’s Young Republicans and stating he was sending $20 anyway. The Young Republicans enjoyed it.. They made speeches calling the Democrats “Caesars” and “vultures” and heard nothing hut applause. Shouted Glenn W. Funk, portraying the Forgotten Man: “I asked for meat and they slaughtered our hogs, I asked for bread and they burned our wheat, ecurtailed our crops and stored the rest, I asked for milk, but it must have been delivered to someone else, for I never ‘got it at all. ‘I asked for reduced taxes and wished I had kept my mouth shut for their im-

mediate skyrocketing looked like thelj

Fourth of July.” Death Knell—-By Tucker

Declared Russell I. Richardsen, portraying Abraham Lincoln: “The chief magistrate derives all his authority from the people. . . . His duty is to administer the present government, as it came to his hand and transmit it, unimpaired by him, to his successor.” Said Secretary of State James Tucker: : “In 1940, the Republicans and some Democrats will get together to give the New Deal, communism the works, and we'll never hear from them again.” They got a great kick out of it.

Who Sent Peanuts?

But toward the end of the performance some of the Republicans at the back end of the room forgot their present distaste for the more bountiful life and “backslid.” A boy with a basket of peanuts showed up, and was promptly swamped. He sold out in two minutes, selling 17 bags of peanuts at 10 cents apiece. He refused to give his name, leading a suspicious Republican to deduce that some “vulture” must have sent him.

profits the statement showed were due her, she testified. Mrs. Clara P. Buxton of 4350 Park Ave. testified shire turned over to Mr. Shideler some brewery stock, which she said was of no value. He assured her, however, that he would make her “a lot of money on it,” she testified. When Mrs. Buxton failed fo Silep= tify some papers which the Government contended supported Count 11 of the indictment, U. S. District Attorney Val Nolan dismissed that count against Mr, Shideler. Mrs. Buxton cold not positively say that the papers were received through the United States mails as. the indietment charged. Eleven counts of mail fraud, four | charging violation of the Securities Act and a single count charging conspiracy to defraud remain. Mrs. Phoebe Carr, 264 Laverock Road, said she asked Mr. Shideler te sell 50 shares of U. S. Rubber Co. stock for her because she was frightened by threats of war in Europe. Mr. Shideler would not sell the stock, she said, telling her that she would make more money by waiting until later. She testified Mr. Shideler kept the 50 shares and paid her nothing for them. U. 8S. Rubber common stock was quoted today on the New York Stock Exchange at about $38 a share. Frederick W. Shideler, William A. Shideler’s father, pleaded guilty to the same charges his son is being tried on, and was sentenced to seven years in prison and was fined $5000, He now is at Leavenworth Penitentiary. Yesterday eight Government witnesses told the jury of their losses through investments in Shideler & Co.

Miss Jesse Wormser, 2450 N. New|

Jersey St. said she had turned agver more than $3000 worth of stocks and bonds to Mr. Shideler. All she ever received, she said, was $34 cash. Earlier Walter Beplay of 821 N. Ritter Ave. a 53-year-old former railroad conductor who lost his legs

‘lin a railway accident, said he had

threatened Mr. Shideler with death unless his money was returned to him. Mr. Beplay said he had lost $4500 in cash turned over to the Shideler firm. Mrs. Sarah C. Woodsen, of 239 NIllinois St., Apt. 107, said she had turned over $10,434 worth of stocks to the Shideler firm and had received in return only $580. Curtis G. Butler, 626 E. 46th St. said he gave them two checks totalling $750 and received nothing but receipts in return. Peter J. Fortune, 1716 N. Meridian St., testified he gave young Shideler a check for $500 with which to purchase stock. He, identified letters which purportedly described stock transactions resulfing in profits to him but he never received the money, he said. -
