MCRAY CAMPAIGN FALSELYADVERTISED

Seriss of Articles Disprove . Claim ~ That Republican Nominee is a Farmer — Known in Home . County as Board of Trade . ‘Candidate. §

WAR RECORD UNDER FIRE

A series of five articles distributed for publication by the Indiana Pub licity Bureau this week show beyond all doubt that Warren T. McCray, the Republican nominee for governor, has been falsely advertised by the Republican state committee as & farmer candidate. el : ;

The articles, based on facts presented by McCray's Kentiand neighbors, show the following points: 1. That he iz not a “dirt farmer” as advertised, but that he Is a stock broker, a banker and grain dealer. He was born on a farm, but has resided in the town of Kentiand since early youth and has never “followed a plough.” : . - The Board of Trade Candidate.

2. McCray Is known in Newton and surrounding coGntics as “the Board of Trade candidate.” He is vice-president of the Sawyer Grain Company, & firm that deals in grain futures on the Chicdigo Board of Trade, and according to his neighbors much of his huge fortune was netted in this_business. : 3. The tax sheets in Kentland show that the- Republican nominee has little cause to be disgusted with the Goodrich: tax law. -The =assessment of his personal propeérty on his great Orchard lake farm, including his fine herd of cattle, stands at $120,325, yet one month later he sold a part of his stock for $225,000. One of his prize bulls brought $25,000 at the sale, or twenty-five times more than it was listed for taxation purposes, N s e : ‘

4. McCray was credited imr the 1919 assessment with holding 31,800 worth of Liberty bonds. More than a year later he filed an affidavit declaring the assessor had been mistaken and that he “had purchased $lB,OOO worth of bonds during the war,” and three months later the assessor filed & similar afidavit. Before the aflidavits were filed, however, some one bad mutilated the records in the county auditor’s office by adding another cipher t§ the $l,BOO worth of bonds-credited to -McCray. : 5. The Discount and Deposit Bank of Kentland, controlled by McCray, purchased only $2,000 worth of treasury- certificateg of indebtedness when the government was preparing for the Third Liberty loan. His competing bank bought $20,000 worth of the same issue and every bank in Newton county lead the McCray institution. " Red Cross Society Stirred. .

6. McCray was chairman of the finance committee of the Newton County Red Cross sociéty and collected all the subscriptions through his bank. He is said to have sent the money to the national association with his personal check and as a result his home county i{s not credifed with its quota. Members of the society have repeatedly requested that he give an accounting of his transactions, but to date the records do not show what has become of the funds.

No one, -of course, questions Mc: Cray’'s honesty in the transaction, but the fact that he has refused to make a statement on the matter has lead to much adverse comment in his own neighborhood. McCray's tax records contain much {lluminating information. For instance in 1917 he listed 265 head of cattle, four horses and twelve mules, yet he had on hand only $2OO worth of oats to feed them. The same year he listed his harness for $75. - In 1918 it had risen to $9O and in 1919 it was overlooked, This year, however, he valued it at $5OO.

-7 Lists a Billiard Table. In Kentland, where McCray has resided all of his life, he pays taxes on $BOO worth of furniture while at his farm he has only $46 worth of household goods. Among his possessions in Kentland is a billiard table which he valued at $7O. s

It is interesting to note that while the total assessment of his personal property on the farm is given in for taxation purposes at $120,325, he car ries $150,000 worth of insurance. : In connection with McCray's relations with the Chicago Board of Trade it is pointed out by Kentland people that thé manager of the Raub Grain Elevator Company lost nearly $50,000 speculating with the Sawyer Grain Company. The attorney for the Raub concern refused to allow the payment of the debt on the ground that it was incutred in “gambling transactions.” 4l It is worthy of note that the Sawyer Company has not taken steps to collect this debt, although reports here are to the effect the matter will ‘be taken up after the eloe'tzom Many- of the facts relative to Me‘Cray’s “business methods” were exposed in two articles, said to have been inspired by James W. Fesler, his primary opponent, last spring in the Chicago Herald and Examiner. McCray has been campaigning . ever since, yet he has mnever denied a single one of the allegations. |

WAR MOTHER WILL AID GOVERNOR COX Mrs. Pearson of Bedford Deserts Republicans on League lssue—Places ~ Patriotism Above Politics. Indianapoiis, Ind. - “My family have aiways been Republicans, and strong ones, too. |am an independent voter. . Certainly | cam not support the candidacy of any man for the presidency of our nation who changes his mind on the league of nations almost as frequently as he has fromt porch audiences.” e This statement was given out by Mrs. Heary P\ Pearson of Bedford, a prominent ' clubwoman of that cily, and wife of & prominent Republican politician, at Democratic state headquarters today. - Mrs. Pearson has been speaking in Lawrence coinly for the league of nations from s war mother's point of view, - “l am intending to vote and work for Mr. Cox,” Mrs. Pearson said, “because | had a son who was two years in the world war., He was overseas for almost a year and saw service though he was not in the actual fighting. 1 intend to vote and work for Mr. Cox because | organized the war mothers of Lawrence county and the Auxiiliary of the American Legion and I do not desire to place politics above patriotism. .

“1 might add,” Mrs. Pearson continued, “that my husband, who has been a Republican practically all his life, and whose family have been Republicans, intends to support Mr. Cos.” ' ; i - Mr. Pearson served two terms in the Indiana state senate, having been elected on the Republican ticket. He has served one term as mayor of Bedford. - ’} o Mrs. Pearson is an active club woman and has been president of the “RRound Table,” znd “Sorosts, both womien's clubs in Bedford. ~ LACGR IS OPPOSED TO HARDIKG ‘lndianapolis, Ind. — “Working men are cpposed. to Harding.” said Ira Cotner of Logansport, in an interview given out here. Mr. Cotner is a retired faricer who is in touch with labor and particularly organized labor throughout the state. Railroad .men in' Logansport are almost unanimous. ly oppused to Harding and in favor of the Democratic candidate for president, Mr. Cotrner declares.

" Their opposition to Harding is based largely upon Harding's attitude toward organized labor, in Mr Cotner's opinion. Harding’s record proves him to be allied with those interests that are opposed to unions, he said.

“l have had a dozen mechanics employed in the shops in my home town tell me they are opposed to Harding,” said Mr. Cotner. “They say they intend to support Cox. 1 have been told the same thing by mechanics in Indianapolis and in other parts of the state. Cox's record on labor issues during his term as governor of Ohio commends him to organized Ilabor everywhere. Working men in Indiana are familiar with this record and because of it they intend to give the Democratic candidate their support “Labor finds very little to comiort it in Harding's speech on Labor Day,” Mr. Cotner said in conelusion..
