State Teachers College Contributes
Liberaiiy to War Prisoners.
Cedar Falls. Oct. 27.-The faculty of
the Iowa State Teachers College
pledged $4,000 to the students war
funda volunteer contribution to aid
fellow students in the war prison
. camps Of Europe.
Yesterday morning the student body
duplicated the pledges of the faculty
members, and thus Teachers College
easily takes rank in the lead of west
ern colleges in furhering this worthy
movement.
It was stated that the faculty mem
bers In all probability would increase
their pledges by substantial amount,
and then it will be up to the student
body to equal the record.
President H. III. Seerley was the first
head Of an American college to place
in effect an order which allows each
student sufficient time off from classes
and study room to earn an amount to
make good his pledge. Each student
may take advantage of this free time
to the limit of one week, and no penalty
will be- inflicted for failure of class
attendance and recitations.
This movement has for it's object the
plcdging Of $1,OO0,O0O by the students
to aid war prisoners in Europe. Prot
estonts are, Of course, expected to make
their contributions thru Protestant or
ganizations, Catholics thru the knights
of Columbus, or similar organizations,
and the Jews thru their own racial
societies.

JURY FAILS TO
INDICT WILKERSON

Attorney General Havner Falls Down
in Effort to Have Detective Tried on
Charges Of Conspiracy to Rob Jones
Store in Order to Secure Evidence.
Corning, Oct. 27.-The Adams county
grand jury, which had under consider
alton the conspiracy charges made by
Havner against Detective Wilkerson,
J was discharged from duty at Corning,
after completing its work for the term.
W did not indict Wilkerson, who was
! bound over last summer after he had
been arrested at Red Oak by a, state
agent and taken to Corning for a pre-
liminary hearing.
Ed Boiler, William Walker and Ed
iNave testified at this preliminary
(hearing that Wilkerson had hired them
to attempt to rob the store Of F. F..
Jones at Villisca and obtain alleged
documentary evidence wanted by Will
kerson.
The grand Jury also failed to indict
either Of the three alleged fellow con-
spirators.
This probably closes the Wilkerson
conspiracy incident so far as court ac-
ton Is concerned, and Wilkerson is
now free from any probability Of facing
trial on this charge.
