Des Moines, July 20.-Special: Gov.
B. f. Carroll was today indicted by
the Polk county grand jury for alleg.
ed criminal libel for having stated
that John Cownie had made improper
proposals to girls at the MitcheIlville
school. The charges were made by
John Cownie and the grand jury ex-
onerates him of making improper pro-
posals to the girls and of other charg-
es and statements concerning the
sale OF stock and property and the
purchasing of supplies for the school
without consent or advice. If con-
yicted by the grand jury, Governor
Carroll can be given year in the
county Jail and fined $1,000. 1t is I'M
derstood that with single exception
the seven members of the grand Jury
voted the indictment. The indictment
was drawn by County Attorney Guth-
RE and specifically charges the de-
PENDANT with having circulated and
having made defamatory reports to
the good name and peace of mind of
the plaintiff, John Cownie. Particular
reference is made to an article which
in the Capital May "a, in
which he stated he had affidavits
from four girls of the Mitchellyille
school asserting that Cownie made
improper proposals to them. Manag-
ing Editor w. c, Jarnigan, of the Cap
ftal said this article was printed with
the permission and full knowledge of
the governor. Cownie appeared be-
fore the grand jury April 8, before
Carroll was nominated for governor
and much time has been occupied
with the witnesses and the weighing
of the evidence. The case has been
continued for trial until the Septem-
Der term of the Polk county district
court. Although the general SUPPOSE
ton was that the affair had been
dropped and that no indictment would
be returned, the matter was stirred
up again yesterday afternoon when a
of Des Moines newspaper
men were called before the grand
jury. 4HNMM

WILL RUSH POSTAL BANKS
PRESIDENT WANTS EXPERT
MENTs STARTED AT ONCE.
Mary Banks and Postmasters Re
quest to be Designated--The
South is Silent.

washington, d. c., July 20.-The
desire OF President Taft to have the
.postoifice banking system operated in
part as soon as possible, by the es-
adjustment of from ten to twenty ex-
detrimental postal banks, probably will
hasten the work of opening them for
business. ....
The trustees of the postal savings
bank system will hold a meeting
shortly after Mr.. Hitchcock returns
from Europe, when 1t is expected both
Secretary MacVeagh of the Treasury
Department and Attorney General
Wickersham, the other trustees, will
be here. .H.g aaU
The committee of government Off
Gals now working to perfect a plan OF
organization, has received no replies
as yet from foreign governments to
the request for various blanks and
regulations pertaining to their postal
savings banks systems. Before the
committee concludes its plans it
wishes to profit by the experience of
other governments.
Interest throughout the country
concerning, the establishment of pos
tai sayingsFbanks is shown by the APP
plication of about four hundred banks
in forty-one states to be depositor-
les for postal funds. Although post
masters will not receive extra COM
pensation for work done in connec-
ton with the receiving of deposits,
about one hundred and seventy-five
have made application to have their
Offices designated as postal banks,
These postmasters are located in
thirty states, the majority, however,
being in Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Min
nesota, Wisconsin, Texas and Okla
homa.
The South Atlantic states are con-
spicuous because of an apparent lack
of interest on the part of the post
masters in applying for the establish
ment of postal banks. The applica-
tons of postmasters will not infiu-
ence the establishment of postal saw
ings> banks, although their attitude
toward them is looked upon as indi.
cative of the sentiment in their sew
eral communities.

PRESIDENT RAWN
SHOT AND.k|LLEO
Head Of the Monou Railway Meets
Death at His Home.
SURPRISED BURGLAR AT WORK
It is Thought the Murderer Was a

SURPRISED BURGLAR AT WORK

Chicago, July 20.-Special: l. G..
and one of the best known railroad
men in the country, was shot and
killed by burglar at his home in
Winnetka, ILL.,, a suburb of Chicago
today. The assassin escaped. Hear
ing noise, Mrs. Rawn wakened her
husband and he went down stairs to
investigate. The moment he reached
the foot of the stairs two shots were
heard. Geo. C. Coburn, son-in.law of
the dead man, was the first to reach
him after the shots were fired, and
found him in a dying condition with
a wound in his breast. He tried to
speak but could not. The Rawn resi-
dence at Winnetka, fashionable SUI
burb, was occupied by Mr.. and Mrs.
Rawn, Mrs. Brinkley, Ralph Coburn,
wife and two children. Robt. c.
Brinkley occupies a separate home
nearby. Immediately following the
shooting the police were notified and
good detectives are being employed.
1t is thought the murderer is negro,
as several negroes have terrorized
the town for some time. Rawn was
SIS years old, born in Delaware, Ohio,
became telegraph operator and rose
rapidly in the railroad world. He was
elected last October to his present
position. That he was the victim of
a burglar and not of personal enc
my is shown by marks on the window
where burglar tools were used.
Judge E. c. Field, vice president OF
Monon, will act as temporary success
sor until an election is held in the
New York Office of the company.
Rawn was vice president of the ILL
nois Central for six years previous TO,
his present place. No definite arrange
ments for the funeral have yet been
made.
Discovery Of blood stains on the
sidewalk and the fact that Rawn had
fired a shot, lead the police to be-
lieye the burglar is wounded. Mrs.
Rawn said she heard two shots and
thinks her husband shot his assailant
before he was killed. The board OF
directors of the Monon have ordered
flags placed at half mast at ticket Of
fees, round houses and shops OF the
road.

BRIST0W MAKES HOT REPLY
Criticises Speaker Cannon as Cham
pion of Aidrich Schedule of
Tariff Rates.

Topeka, Kan, July Ex-senator Jo-
seph l.. Bristow, the "insurgent," in a
speech here pronounced Speaker Can
non a poor judge of rubber. The
speaker, at Burlingame, replying to a
former speech of Mr.. Bristow's, said
the senator had ''willfully, or ignorant
iy" misrepresented the facts when he
said that the increased duty on man
ufactured rubber had resulted in a
Iamentable decrease in the importa-
tons of that commodity.
Mr.. Cannon" said Mr.. Bristow,
"forgets that there is rubber and rub
ber When he says the increased du-
ties on manufactured rubber did not
result in a decrease in importation he
would seem to refer only to hard rub
Der, the kind that is sometimes used
in making rules. Let the speaker look
up the rubber question. and he will
find that there are several kinds of
elastic or soft rubber to which my
statements apply exactly.
81 am told that Speaker Cannon said
he did not know that Senator Aldrich
organized trust In my Wingfield
address | set forth facts as contained
In official documents, in Poor's Man
ual and in the Wall Street Journal,
which are considered reliable authori-
ty by every business man in this coun-
try.
Whether or not Senator Aldrich is
guilty of a technical violation of the
statutes | do not know. 1t is the duty
of the attorney general of the United
States to investigate violations of the
Sherman antitrust law. But do know
that he is guilty of violation of po-
litical decency, of political honesty"

KEW CONTINUES
JEW explosions
Seven Hundred Families Ban
ished-More Are to Go.
DRASTIC MEANS ARE USED
Many Return and Again Sent Out un-
der Guard Of Russian Troops
Thousands Petition Right
to Stay.

Kiev, Russia, July 20.--The expul-
sion of Jews from Kiev continues at
the rate of as individuals day. From
July 4 until July Is 497 were ex-
PEELED by what is known as the sec
ond method-that is, they we're forced
actually to leave town. During the
same period 1921 persons were ex-
PEELED by the first method, which, in
effect, is warning for their depart
ure, but permits them time for set
Element of private affairs. In the ma
jority of cases the latter method
proved Intellectual, as the Jews in that
category are prone to return to Kiev
after temporary absence.
During the IL days mentioned there
were 165 explosions from Solomenka
and Isl from Demieffka.
Many Return After Expulsion.
Since May Ia. when the imperial de-
cree ordering that all Jews who could
not establish a legal right to resi-.
dence elsewhere should be returned
within the pale, the restricted district
of the polish provinces and the Uk-
raine, became effective, there have
been expelled from this city, Solomon
ka and Demieffka suburbs 3,011 per-
sons by the second method, and 3,641
by the first method. Many have been
expelled only to return and be sent
away again, while the explosions from
5olomenka and Demieffka are largely
composed OF those who were origin
ally expelled from this city.
Armed Guards Escort Many.
Officers of the Jewish relief commit
tee of Kiev stated that roughly esti-
mated 700 families had been already
sent out of the city and 400 families
were still subject to such treatment.
The large figures furnished day by
day indicate the mobility of the ex-
PEELED, many of whom persistently
return To KieY 10 face ropsated ex-
pulsion In the case of the latter the
authorities have adopted drastic meas
ures. the returning ones frequently be-
ing accompanied from the city by gen.
darmes, and in many cases Danish
ment by stappe" has been resorted
to. This system provides for the
shipment OF patches of Jews to their
fianl destination under escort of re-
lays of armed guards.
Many Petitions to Stay.
The number of explosions is con-
stantly growing owing to the discov-
cry of illegal makeshifts employed by
the Jews to gain the right of resi-
dence. Since January / the authori-
ties have received 1922 petitions for
right of residence, accompanied by
documents purporting to establish
such right. Among the number there
were discovered 2,152 fraudulent
tradcsmen's certificates These GER
tificates were issued by former off,
Gals of the Velikocech technical
school of Poland. which was closed in
1903 upon the order of the governor
general of Warsaw After the clos
ing OF the school officials continued to
issue antedated certificates to Jews
paying the necessary sum.

DAILY DIET HINTS
BY DR.. r. j. ALLEN
Food Specialist.
FAT FOR COLD WEATHER.

More fat should be eaten In
winter than in summer, to sup
ply heat. Bacon, pork, lard and
butter serve the purpose, but
olive or peanut oil is preferable,
because more easily assiriIated
and freer from Contamination.
Peanuts and waInuts contain a
large proportion of oil, but rela-
lively too much albumen. II two
fistfuIs Of Virginia peanuts, IN
roasted, or dozen walnuts are
eaten daily, and two tablespoon
fuis Of olive or peanut oil taken,
made more palatable by adding
a little lemon juice, the neces-
sary fat will be obtained, and II
will be found that the oil faclll-
tates elimination Of waste. Heat
can be produced from aibumen,
starch or sugar, but with great
er expenditure Of vitality. The
decomposition Of an excessive
amount Of albumen Is especially
wasteful and tends to rheuma-
tism and Bright's disease. This
should be particularly guarded
against In advanced years.
