REPUBLICAN PUBLICITY MANAGER EXPRESSES ADMIRATION FOR HIGH QUALITIES OF SMITH

Distinguished Kansas Editor Réquests Republican Press to Publishßecent Statement

William Allen White Kansas editor Monday withdrew his charges against Governor Smith's legislative record so far as bills governing gambling and prostitution were concerned becausg he said he did not wish to question the motive of the Democratic presidential nominee. :

~ While allowing his contention that ‘Governor Smith had consistently voty ‘ed for the saloon te stand, Mr. Whitg ‘said of his other charges “I could not in good conscience press his issud realizing that Governor Smith whom I greatly admire for his many high qualities feels that my charges ques: tion the purity of his motives which always should be granted in any poj litical controversy.” : White’s Sitatement Mr. White said in his statement: “Yesterday talking to Walter Lippmann of The New York World a friend of Governor Smith and of mine for many years I learned that Governor Smith was deeply agrrieved that I should charge him with protecting and prostitution in his assembly reecord. I can understand after considering what Mr. Lippmann stid thatthe governor in casting those votes against those reform bills might honestly have felt that the bills ‘were unconstitutional or were not enforceable or infringed upon personal lib+

erty or encouraged police blackmail. “On the question of the menace of Tammany and of Governor Smith’y Tammany record for the open saloon the whole issue of the campaign ig coming. Could Not Press Issue: “Organized protected prostitution is quickly passing out of American life and that issue is not vital but vital or not I could not in good con,y science press this fssue realizing thag Governor Smith whom I greatly adj mire for his many high qualities fels htat my charges question the purity of his motives whicvh always should be granted in any political contros versy. e

“So the ten or a dozen votes on gambling and prostitution come out of the record. I hepe now Americany newspapers and partcularly Repub> lican newspapers will give the samg consideration to this statement that they gave to my statement yesterday'f

‘ The Fish Output. _The June output of Indiana’s five fish hatcheries was 153,000 baby fish, George N. Mannfeld superintendent of fisheries and game, reported today ta Richard Lieber state conservation dir réctor. Of this number the report said there were 64,600 small-mouth black bass: 77,600 large-mouth black bass; 8,000 crappie and 3,000 yellow pereh. No bluegills and none of the crap; pie were distributed because they were of unsufficient size. :

July distribution has been delayed, according to Mannfeld, on account of the high and muddy condition of waters. In consegquence hundreds of ap; plications have not been filled and it very likely that the division will not conclude final deliveries before September. Applicants are advised when deliveries are to be made g 0 no dey lay will be occasioned after the motor trucks start from the hatcheries to points of destination. Game wardens arrested 284 persons during June for violating fish and game laws and of this number the deipartment brought about 261 convictions, with a total fines and costs amounting to $6,717.65. The two leading offenses were hunting or fishing without license and for taking undersized fish. E ‘

Mannfeld says that use of highpowered motor boats on northern lakes is causing much complaint from fisher» men. He cities attention to an act of

the 1913 Legislature making it unlawful for any person to run a motor hoat on any lake or watercourse in Indiana faster than 10 miles per hour from sun-dawn until sun-up. It also is un-

‘lawful to operate a motor boat with muffler open. "Penalty for either offense upon conviction is a fine of $1 to $lOOO to which may be added imprisonment for one month.

SOUTH MILFORD FIRE

Business Section of Pretty Little Town » Wiped Out Tuesday Afternoon . %

. A raging blaze which originated in the storage room of the Will Walker grocery store and swept by a strong southwest wind practically destroyed the business district of the village of South Milford Tuesday afternoon.

“At 2:15 p. m. eleven buildings had been razed at a loss estimated at between $75,000 and $lOO,OOO, ' The fire which was first discovered shortly before 1:20 o'clock central standard time spread rapidly and was bevond control before a hurriedly formed bucket' brigade could check its course. f '

‘Fire trucks from Kendallville Wolcottville and Ashley responded to thq alarm and shortly before 2 o’clock their united efforts had succeeded in getting a large stream of water onto the fire and protecting other businessg houses on the public square. ' The Kendallville pumper arrived when but one building the

Walker grocery was ablaze but a lack of any water supply prevented firenien from using their large hose lines. ‘From its place of origin in the Walker store which was closed while Mr. Walker made his daily farm route in a peddling wagon the fire jumped across to a large onion storage owned by James Wible and then to the old opera house which was owned by Leg Holly. The sweeping flames which drove would-be firemen back from thq burning structures then practically covered the tiny building where Mrs, Vermilyea the operator for the La, Grange county Telephone exchange, was holding to her post, and she wag forced to flee while the Ilicking flames rapidly cut off all communicay. tion with the outside country.

Sparks and flames from the burning buildings on the west side of -the street leaped many feet into the air; and scon were fastened upon the roof of the old South Milford hotel, a thred story frame building which has been a landmark for many years.

Shortly, the new Church of Christ, built four years ago alongside the hotel was also in flames. Firemen from the Wolcottville department expended the contents of their chemical tank on the roof of the church buj the terrific heat prevented them from protecting the new building and it was soon anmother pillar of flame. Several residence buildings just north of the church were also destroy, ed as was the former electric light plant just north of the telephone exy cmnge. . - - e
