URGES FAIRNESS IN CAMPAIGNS
Coulter Makes Plea to Party Workers; Other
Candidates Speak.
A plea for fairness in the closing days of the primary campaign was made by John Coulter, candidate for the Republican congressional nomination, in a series of speeches last night. “Fairness to each other is the fundamental principle of American good citizenship,” he said. “It is the keystone of our ‘Arnerican way
of life,’ and it is especially the ideal of the Republican party. It is essential to morale in war time; it is essential for victory. “It is largely because of unfairnesses that have occurred and continue to occur at Washington that Republican reinforcements are necessary there. In the closing days of this campaign, may we, as Republican candidates, strive to be entirely fair to each other. For, .if we of the same political faith are unfair to each other, how can we be expected to be fair to others in the way that both good citizenship and victory require?”

Favors Fewer Receivers
Pointing out that his two opponents had been slated by rival organizations and that he. was conducting “my campaign on my own initiative,” Harry Hatfield, Republican candidate for superior court 1, told party workers last night that “it is fundamentally important that the voters see and hear the candidates for whom they vote and then determine their qualifications.” After outlining his 17 years of legal practice here and his 25 years of party work, Mr. Hatfield said: “If I am nominated and elected, no receiver will be appointed to manage a debfor’s property until such time
there is no other alternative, ‘and in no receivership shall there be exorbitant attorney's fees allowed.” He also pledged that all cases in bis Sours would be tried in open ourt.

Bench as Honor
JUDSON L. STARK, former prosecuting attorney and now candidate for judge of Marion superior court room 1, yesterday told Republicans that a judgeship is not a political stepping stone, but an honor any successful lawyer might hope to attain. He told Franklin and Warren township Republican clubs last night: “Lawyers and litigants want a fair chance to try their cases in an atmosphere of confidence and trust, before a judge who is kind . and helpful to both sides. They are entitled to a respectful hearing’ and would receive that con‘sideration if I were Judge. di

Primary ~~ Speeches to
Reach. Peak at
Rallies Tonight.
By VERN BOXELL
With most of the oratory scheduled to ‘end this week, campaign speakers will reach their peak at a series of political rallies throughout. the county tonight and tomorTOW. Meanwhile, the Republican mayor race continued to ‘hold the spotlight. William H. Remy, former prosecutor who is supporting the candidacy of Gen. Robert H. Tyndall, told the Women-for-Tyndall committee at the Marott hotel yesterday that “track elevation for the South side and smoke abatement for the North side’ will never come through machine rule of Indianapolis politics.”
Ostrom Continues’ Drive
Henry E. Ostrom continued his intensive campaign and pledged “fullest possible co-operation of the official city with the various social, philanthropic and civic agencies of the -city.” “These organizations perform a real and definite service,” he said, “and are well worthy of every encouragement from our citizens and government officials alike. I know from. experience of my own that great progress ‘can be made under a co-operative city government.” He also stressed the necessity of operating the city “on a strictly business .basis, rigid economy consistent with efficient maintenance of the essential city services.”
Remy Attacks Leadership
Mr. Remy attacked the Republican leadership for trying to defeat Gen. Tyndall, “Even as we renew the old pledge of eternal gratitude to those who fight their country’s battles, we find in Indianapolis that a former soldier, no matter how honorably he may have served his country, can expect no consideration from political leaders in his community,” Mr. Remy continued. “I do not suggest that they should actively support his candidacy. I do not believe that the political organization of any party should support any candidate or any group of candidates.
Assails ‘Machine Rule’
“But unless there is some valid reason why Gen, Tyndall would be an incapable leader of this city, I submit that the Republican organization is without warrant in opposing his candidacy.” Attacking “machine politics,” Mr. Remy added: “It is° the same in every city where government is by political machine. The machine must create S0 many jobs, must pay so many po-
litical workers that the necessary
expenses. for city government have to wait.” Soldiers Get Ballots Meanwhile, Tyndall headquarters said “we have been encouraged by an unusually large number of re-
quests for absentee voters’ ballots from army camps,” pointing out
c.| that one regiment of the ninth in
the 38th division had requested 250
ballots. The headquarters also is]: contacting defense workers who will
be out of the city on primary day to use absentee ballots. Gen. Tyndall also continued his speaking tour, appearing before the Third Ward Republican Club, Inc. last night after that 20-year-old organization had indorsed him “after sending questionnaires to both candidates and studying their qualifications.” He also spoke at six other meetings. . Indorsement of Mr. Ostrom’s candidacy also was voted by two Wayne township Republican clubs representing the 19th and 24th wards, it was announced today. : ® 8 =»

Charges Rackets Here
Glenn W. Funk, Republican candidate for prosecutor, told G. O. P. workers last night that “the crime rate in our city can be brought down by a dilligent, .able and fearless administration of the prosecytor’s office.” Attacking the record of Prosecutor Sherwood Blue, his primary opponent, Mr. Funk charged that police court deputies “have put a personal feud (with Jiist John Niblack) above the public good, obstructing the administration of justice.” He also charged that “the poses cutor has not made a single move to halt the numbers racket” and
present prosecutor, In one of the worst a cities in the United States.”

Sims Pledges to Work for Early War End:
Claycomb and White Cite Qualifications
Thomas A. Sims, candidate for the Democratic nomination for congress from the 11th district, at a meeting last night said that “if elected I shall use evéry means at my command to hasten a victorious termination of the war ... and to that end shall give all-out aid to the national, state and local administration of government, regardless of party.” He also included in his platform the promise to work and vote for the preservation of the social and economic gains of labor under the Roosevelt administration snd tn extend those gains whenever and wherever possible. |) 8 & Lloyd D. Claycomb, Republican candidate for the . legislature, stressed his experience as a former city councilman and- legislator in a series of meetings last night. “Voters of Indianapolis and Marion county should be keenly aware of the great importance their state representatives hold in government,” he said. “It is:dangerous to assume that all local and county government is concentrated in the
cials. The fact is that the general assembly holds the power to frustrate virtually any program our local officials may desire to initiate.” ” s o The duties of probate court judge are such that they “should not be entrusted to any youngster just out of law college nor to any man who will make a political football arena out of the court,” Municipal Judge Dan V. White said last night at party rallies.
«Citing his record of 100,000 law.

W. Johnson Jr., Republican candidate for judge of superior court 3 said at three Republican meetings last night. “The purpose of our primary next Tuesday is to select the best Republican ticket that is available.
Our candidates must be men fully|
educated as to the times and they must be capable of understanding the changing conditions due to this war emergency. “This is our opportunity to select officers for the coming years that will be able to perform for the best good of the people.”
” ” o Hubert Hickam, former Indianapolis Bar association president, today praised the record of Judge Joseph T. Markey and said: “He is the best qualified of the various candidates for the Democratic nomination of judge of | superior court room one.” “He has been fair, just and impartial in his determination of the law suits before him and has always tried tp guarantee every litigant a proper hearing. I am sure that he has not yielded to any unfair pressure.” Pointing to Judge Markey’s indorsement by the bar association recently, Mr. Hickam said “the voters realize that today it is vital and important to have the best qualified and experienced attorneys nominated and elected to the Judicial
