'Trick' to Test
Ira Haymaker, Democratic County chairman, today denied accusations of some precinct committeemen that party leaders had resorted %o a “trick” to learn which of them were “loyal” to the organization's choice of Primary cangdidates. ach committeeman received a sample ballot Saturday and a letter signed by Mr. Haymaker asking the comimtteemen to indiacte their choice of, candidates on the ballot, as a guidance to the County Committee, and to return the unsigned ballots in addressed envelopes which accompanied the letters. Some. of the committeemen said they detected a faintly penciled number on the flaps of the return envelopes. In this, they said, they saw an attempt by the comimttee leaders to learn which of them would suppct the candidates the Committee “big shots” are known to favor. Most of the -committeemen are candidates for re-election. With the envelopes numbered, those in the suspicious group .contended, it would be easy for the Committee to learn the stand of each committeeman. This might

Some of the party's -ward: chairmen also were irate over the’ letters and sample ballots. In past years, they said, each ward chairman obtained the views of committeemen and transmitted the tabulated information to the county 'organization. They feel they have been slighted by the organization. Some of this group ‘saw in the sample ballots a test of strength between Walter Boetcher, the incumbent County Treasurer, and Center Township Assessor James Cunningham for the - Treasurer

to be favored by some of the party leaders for renomination. In commenting on the contro-:

Radio Program May Settle | 'On Banks of Wabash’ Dispute
A radio broadcast tonight on the Mutual network, emanating from|Sa WIRE here, may settle the controversy as to who wrote Indiana's State song. At least, it will provide evidence from the two people who ought to know. If they can agree, the dispute may be settled: The music of “On the Banks of the Wabash” was written by Paul Dresser. - Today ‘is his birthday and it has been. proclaimed as Paul Dresser Day by. Governor: M. Clif-
ford Townsend. Mr. Dresser died in New York in 1906. “Some of the I Iians say that Mr. Dresser wrote both ‘werds and music for the song, others say his younger brother, Theodore : Dreiser, wrote the words... A few say the two collaborated on the words. Theodore Dreiser, the . famous novelist and author of “An. American Tragedy,” is in Hollywood working on a screen biography of
Mr. Dresser, who wrote “My Gal Sal,” “The Blue and the Gray,”
“The Letter That NeverCame” and
other hits of the day. "On tonight's radio program, sched-
Time), Governor Townsend will read a letter from Mr. Dreiser giving his side of the controversy. Miss Mary South, the “Mary” to whom “On the Banks of the Wabash,” was dedicated, will tell: what she knows of the writing of the song. She and the Terre Hauteborn Mr. Dresser were good friends. |
There is one legend that he had]
not seen her at the time the song was written, another legend that
the two went to school together. The Purdue University Glee Club
will sing special arrangements of
some of Mr. Dresser’s most famous
songs. Harry Bason and Dessa and [}| Virginia Byrd will assist in the mu-|
sical program.
