TYPHUS EXPEDITION RETURNS TO GERMANY

(P.y Associated Press) WARSAW, Jan. 3. Fifty-five soldiers and 10 officers of the American typhus expedition io Poland left Warsaw, for Coblenz on the Rhine recently in a special train of 12 cars, the mission's time having expired. . The Americans came to Warsaw 16 months ago, and worked with Polish health authorities in combatting typhus, chiefly along the eastern frontiers where refugees were ' flocking from the interior of Russia under the Bolshevik regime. The Americans worked so near the front lines during . tho Soviet Russian-Polish war that frequently the relief trains were under shell fire, and in one instance a soldier was captured by the Bolshevlkl. One car of the special train to Coblens was reserved exclusively for 10 Polish women who had married American soldiers and were taken with their husbands to the headquarters of the

American forces in Germany on their;

way to the United States. The expedition was under the command of Colonel Harry L. Gilchrist, of Cleveland. O.. who is to remain in

Warsaw, by permission of the war de-j

SPEAKERSHIP

(Continued from Page One) nient of the state government should look after its own affairs without interference from any other department. In seeking to pick a man for speaker, say McClure's opponents, Governor-elect McCray is starting out his administration by violating the doctrine he advanced during the campaign. Harmony Predicted. The biggest thing in the speakership fight probably is not the election of a certain man but rather the effect the squabble may have on the work of the legislature. The best hope is that Cfovernor-elect McCray and the Republican leadership will not get at cross purposes at the start.

Modt Republican leaders are opto-! mistic in this respect. In advance ofi

the arrival ot" the majority of the house members in Indianapolis they cannot determine of course just what the temper of that body is but they are hopef il that in the event of McClure's election past differences will be forgotten and the house leadership will co-operate with the governor.

They are Just as hopeful that in the; event of Mr. McClure's defeat, the i governor elect will be willing to forget past difficulties and work in a friend

ly and co-operative way with the house leadership. It appeared today that one of the

features of the speakership contest

was a slight rise in the chances of Representative Glvan of Indianapolis. Mr. Givan has had the solid support of his own county, Marion county, right along but his candidacy has never been on a par with that of Repre

sentative Miltenberger of Muncie or

with that of Representative McClure of Anderson ""since Mr." McClure has gained the open support of the governor-elect. But today friends of Mr. Givan said he had received assurances of support from several counties outside Indianapolis. Givan's supporters seemed to take the attitude that, his chances were better than those of Miltenberger. Givan's Chances. There seemed to be a feeling on the part of some that if the bitterness among the house members is such as

to preclude the possibility of electing

McClure than Givan could be elected and that his election, because he has

taken a comparatively retired place in

the contest could not be construed as

an affront to the governor-elect, at

least that the election of Givan would

no look as much like going directly

against the wishes of the governorelect as would the election of Miltenberger. Representative Kingsbury of Indianapolis seems to be taking the lead in the management of the Givan candidacy. Kingsbury comes from an old Indianapolis family which has long been identified with the agricultural

interests. Up until a few years ago he

was active in the management of an agricultural journal in Indianapolis. Some Republicans were saying to

day that it was unwise to the McClure candidacy to put W. W. Huffman of

Anderson forward as its sponsor. They

paid that Huffman had not shown any political strength in his home district and that when he made the race for a

legislative nomination at the time

John S. Alldredge was nominated for

Madison, Henry and Tipton, Huffman

made a very poor showing. Huffman's Announcement.

Huffman got himself into the lime

light by coming to Indianapolis last week getting into conference with Mc

Cray and then going out and announc ing to the newspapers that the elec

lion of McClure was certain because

always in the past the word of a gov

ernor had been supreme in the choice

of a speaker.

It was said today to be certain that

Katherine Smith, of Indianapolis would

be elected assistant secretary of the senate. It is understood that this procedure was agreed on among some of the senate leaders even before Zell

Swain got out of the race for assistant

secretary and that Swain at that time announced his willingness to throw what strength he had to Miss Smith. The need of satisfying the woman ote by giving some prominent legis

lative place to a woman is said to

have been the controlling factor in lining up Influential senate strength for Miss Smith. ' . Swain who is now a candidate for secretary of the senate, is in Indianapolis early for the legislative conferences. Those who are friendly to his candidacy say that he has received

assurances from many legislators that they will support him. Swain's friends are telling of the hard work that he did for the Republican state committee in the last campaign. In connection with the candidacy of Miss Smith it was said in some quarters that the "only thing that could defeat her would . be the candidacy of some other woman. Miss Smith has some rather Important political backing in Indianapolis. Other Candidates. Others mentioned for secretary In the contest against Swain are M. E. Watkins, of Roachdale and Julian Hogate. of -Danville. The candidacy of Hogate has not been announced however and up to this time is only talk. The word was In circulation today that the same influences that are trying to bring about the election of Representative McClure as speaker are also trying to elect Senator Nejdl of Lake county, as president pro-tem of the senate. Those who were putting out this line of gossip said that it did not apply directly to Governor-elect McCray but that the statement was made in reference to others who were pushing McClure and who were instrumental in obtaining the support of the Governor-elect In the McClure fight. This kind of gossip while guarded was insufficient to lead to reports of other workers that McCray does not desire the election of Senator Oscar Ratts of Paoli as president pro tem. But this representation of the attitude of McCray does not line up with his action recently in appointing Ratts as a member of an important committee to visit other states for a study of the budget system. There was some talk to the effect that friends of Ratts were getting ready to take advantage of the situation if it appears nearer the middle of the week that opposition to the Governor-elect in the organization of the legislature is the popular thing. Nejdl is said to have been very active and the understanding is that he has obtained pledges of support from a great many legislators. Start Will Be Delayed.

While a great many of the legisla-l live leaders particularly those in the senate are in favor of starting business at once, it is hardly probable that very much legislative work will be done before next week. The first i session will be held Thursday morning1 but not until Monday will the Goodrich administration come to an end. I The business of making up the leg-: islative committees this year will also' be' a considerable task on account of the larger Republican majorities and the number of Republicans who must be taken care of with committee appointments. Itis probable that Lieutenant-Governor Branch has pretty well in mind how he will dispose of the committee question in the senate but it is hardly , likely that any of the speakership candidates has given thought to the makeup of his committees in case he is )

successful. The senate finance committee and the house ways and means committee

which always rank .high in importance, take an even higher place this session , because one of the biggest problems of the senate will be to raise money ! sufficient to run the state adequately,

and at the same time not push the taxes too high. It is said that the tax question is Uf3 main one that is interesting the corporations this year and as strange as it may seem the common taxpayer and the corporations will find common ground in their desire to head off high taxes. The committees on elections this year also will be important largely because the primariiajelection law is coming up for consideration. Governor-elect McCray already has spoken in favor of the repeal of the state

wide features pf the law and Is expected to repeat his views in his legislative address. " - It is likely that work will be begun on the drafting of a new primary election measure soon after the session begins. Several proposed plans already have been mapped out but the real work will not be done until the legislature is in session. It is commonly understood that while there will be no objection to certain remedial amendments there will be vigorous opposition in certain quarters to the amendment of the law in such way as to put governorship and United States senatorship contests back under the old convention methods. Those who favor this plan say that the election of delegates to conventions can be regulated In such a manner as to insure an honest and uncontrolled selection of candidates. Senator Beardsley of Elkhart came to Indianapolis several weeks ago with an outline of proposed changes in the primary law and drafts were put into the hands of Republican leaders and one copy was

sent to National Chairman Hays who was then at Chicago. Express Objections. It is said that there is considerable I objection to some of the changes prol posed by Beardsley particularly one

tnat would make tne metnoa or selecting local candidates optional with cities and counties. The revision of the primary law will call for some of the most careful work and there is little doubt that important party leaders will be called into the conferences. Governor-elect McCray in his message to the legislature is expected to express his views in a general way in regard to the primary law but of course will not go into details. A large part of his address will be devoted to the tax question and more particularly to the manner In which money shall be spent for the state's institutions. The chief work of the legislature in regard to taxation it is said will be to frame some sort of legislation that will prevent local taxing units in the

state from making their levies too high or being too extravagant in the matter of bond issues. The expenditure of money for the state institutions and the state schools is in the control of the legislature itself but as the law now stands the matter of local expenditures is back in the hands of the local authorities. I Favor Maximum Rate. Mr. McCray is said to be in favor of fixing some kind of maximum tax rate for the various counties and limiting the bond issues. It might be necessary under this plan to divide the counties of the state into three or four classes according to their taxable valuation of property. Some fear that this plan would offer many complexities. There is also a sentiment in favor of putting the control of local bond issues back into the hands of the state tax board. But this is the plan that caused so much trouble before the last special session of the legislature when it was eliminated and the Johnson home rule law was enacted. It Is under the Johnson home rule law which went into effect last Saturday that various counties are now acting in making bond issues. There is also an element that is in favor of giving up any idea of fixing maximum limits or of puting the bond issues back under the direction of the state tax board. This element believes that home rule should be maintained at any cost and that if local communities get into too much trouble in the matter of high tax rates and bond issues they should be left to work out their own salvation. All of these elements will be represented in the legislature and in the legislative conferences and it is hard to tell just what the outcome will be. Has Military Experience. Lieutenant Governor Emmett F. Branch, of Martinsville, who will preside over the sessions of the senate will at least have the advantage of military experience in his efforts to "discipline" the law-makers. Branch

has been in the military game all his

life. He was one of the first to get into the Spanish-American war enlisting in old Company K at Martinsville and drilling around the streets with the boys before uniforms had been obtained. After his return from the SpanishAmerican war in which he attained to the rank of captain, he organized a company of state militia at Martinsville and was in command of it. Later larger commands in the state, guard were given him and in the world war he had the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel. Lieutenant-Governor Branch practices law at Martinsville and also has extensive fanning interests. He will be inaugurated next Monday at the same time Governor-elect McCray is inaugurated. Branch succeeds Edgar Bush, of

THOUGHT MY LIVEI WAS ON A STRIKE

Head was giddy, spots danced before my eyes, breath foul, was tired and drowsy. Dreco wiped it out.

"I have suffered for quite a while with sluggish liver; at times I would get so dizzy, I would have to stop and sit down; spots would dance before my eyes-; I had headaches and a bad taste in my mouth; my appetite became poor, and my food did not digest nor give me strength; my stomach was often sour, white gas and bloating caused me much uneasiness. The pains often extended round to my back and limbs, so that it was an effort to keep on with my work," says Mr. F. M. Lamb, living on Conners Road, west, near Richmond, Ind. "There was so much talk about and praise being given Dreco. I decided to try it. The first bottle proved to me It was a good medicine, as it soothed my stomach and relieved the gas forming. I continued the treatment, and never have a dizzy spell', nor see the spots before my eyes'; my bowels act regular; my appetite is fine and the food digests and gives me strength; I don't have any more pains In my back or limbs, and have not had a headache in a long time. Dreco is a good medicine, and I gladly add my words of praise for it." Dreco acts on the liver in a smooth; gentle manner, gradually working off the excess bile day by day. It is neither strong nor harsh, and does not excite the muscles of the bowels, as strong cathartics do. It tones up the digestive organs, and relieves gas on the stomach; puts an end to constipation; increases the appetite; gives strength to weak kidneys; restores tired nerves, and induces sound sleep. Dreco is a great blood purifier and system cleanser. All good druggists now sell Dreco, and it is highly recommended in this city by Clem Thistlethwaite's seven drug stores. Advertisement.
