She. had taken her son Eugene and !, wife to Gary to catch the train to Chicago, after spending the week ( end in Syracuse, and Mrs. Hoopin-I garner was on her way- home. She said there seemed to be something wrong with the steering wheel, that she had to pull on it. to throw her weight on it to guide the car, and the machine crossed the road and struck a culvert on the other side. Mrs. Hoojjingarner’s head ' hi| • against the instrument board and was cut .

Radio Material Ordered by Macy for South American Friend Must be Delivered in Five Weeks. j M. W. Macy and his attorney, S. E. Rowdabaugh, representing Carlos i Cordovez, a textile manufacturer of Ecuador, So. America, filed a $50,-1 000 damage suit, Tuesday, in the i Allen county court at Fort Wayne, against J Wade Pitcher, an elec- . trical radio engineer of the Indiana inspection bureau of Fort Wayne, j Late Tuesday night a satisfactory settlement between Macy and Pitcher was leached, but the suit will re- ; main on the docket until the mer- ! ch.mdise, broadcasting equipment, assembled under contract by Pitch-! er, is accepted by Ecuador. Cordovez and Macy became friends on the air six' years ago, as both have amateur radio broadcasting ; sets. When business men in Rio j Bamba. the town in which Cordovez ; lives, decided to install a radio ' broadcasting - station there, Cordovez waas instructed to see to the purchase of the equipment. A set such as the one Macy WgS , h’avinc Pitcher assemble would have cost about $33,000 if bought from a.i plant in this country w hich makes I broadcasting sets. Cordovez ordered ! parts for the set, over the air in his; < talk with Macy, and Macy ordered ; these parts, making its »cost about 1 $6,000. The contract for assembling I these was let to Pitcher in Fort i Wayne, last June, to be delivered to Macy, meeting specifications of » the contract, by August. The equipment was paid for by Cordovez out of his personal funds in New York. The only way that he can replenish his account in this country is to make a draft of payment on something being shipped into Ecuador. La>vs of that country prevent transferring money from that country to another; it can only be sent to buy something. If the equipment is not there bei fore Nov. 22, he will not be able to [ .take advantage of the old rate of ex- ■’ change, as that is the date fixed by that country’s congress to with draw ’ the government’s support of its - money on the market. 1 That is the reason that such a I large amount of damages is asked, - in case the equipment is not delivers ed according to specifications in the s necessary time, at Ecuador. > | Macy claimed in tests made last : week in Fort Wayne the equipment ; - was not satisfactory, but after talkI ing on the air with Cordovez, he • said to send the equipment as it was, i ; but not according to the contract. A satisfactory settlement was made by Macy and Rowdabaugh with Pitcher and his attorney late Tuesl day night and early morning, and the equipment was ; - brought by truck to the Slip for K ’ shipment. > 1 —<»- > BUSINESS INCREASES. v Sales of first line automobile tires - j manufactured by The B.

VICTORY IS CLAIMED BY BOTH SIDES McNutt-Peters Factions Met and Formed Sub-Committee The Democratic state committee meeting yesterday avoided a showdown vote between Governor Paul V. I McNutt and R. Earl Peters, state i chairman, by setting up a subcommittee of three to have charge of ! all party finances. The plan was decided upon in X j caucus prior to the formal -rpeeting. I Afterwards both the Governor and the chairman claimed a victory. Club’s Fate to Be Decided. The subcommittee, composed of A. N. Pursley of Hartford City, chairman; Aliss Florence Smiht of LaPorte and OnAir Jackson of l Greenfield, will meet at 1 o’clock next Tuesday to determine what disposition is to be made of the Hoosier Democratic Club, which has been collecting dues from state employes. Points at issue were: ! The Governor and his administration group determined that neither Peters nor Amos Wood, treasurer of the state committee, would handle the money being collected in the [Statehouse for party purposes. Peters objected to the collection of . party funds by any organization . other than the state committee, and that Wood, rather Jhan Bow- , man Elder, treasurer of the club, collect the money from state employes. Demands Cut in “Dues.” The chairman insisted that the levy on state employes be reduced from, 2 to 1 per cent of their salaries 1 and that only such money as needed to pay the state dnd national com I mittee deficits $36,500) be raised. . Results: Peters will not have control of party finances (unless it turns, oi.l that the subcommittee is favorable to him.) Victory for the Governor. The subcommittee of the state committee will have charge of collecting employes’ dues and Elder wiR not be the collector. This round i;. in favor of Peters. Assessments to Be Determined. The third point, the amount o [the assessments (whether 2 or 1 p< J cent) will be determined by the subI committee next week. j All hands claim credit for hatching up the idea of the subcommittee, and thereby setting up the supremacy of the state organization as the custodian of party funds. ‘j o .
