Underhiu Failed to
Release Mortgage, Charge

In an effort to prove that Mrs. Ella
Williams was of unsound mind and in
capable of handling her business af-
fairs, evidence of an irregular land
deal in which she is alleged to have
been given the worst of it" by ALT.
Underhill. was introduced in circuit
court Wednesday,
According to the testimony intro
duced in court, ALT Underhill sold
Mrs. Williams so acres of land for
$4,000, and took a mortgage ON 73
acres of land she owned near Center
vile, and also on the 80 acres, to in
sure payment. Later Mrs. Williams
thought she had received the worst of
the deal and decided back the 80 acres
to Underhill on his promise to release
the mortgage.
1t was alleged that Underhill failed
to do this but assigned the mortgage
over to his wife, Mrs. Ruth Underhill.
Therefore the mortgage still stands
against Mrs. Williams though she has
received nothing in return, according
to the evidence.
This evidence was introduced to
prove that Mrs. Williams was of un-
sound mind and incapable of looking
after her business interests. Judge
Fox appointed the American Trust
Company as guardian for the woman,
and action will probably be brought to
cancel the mortgage.

Downfall of Czernin
Makes Deep Impression
Upon German Element
(By Associated Press)


BASEL, Switzerland, April 1.-THE
tone of the Austrian and German press
indicates that profound impression
has been caused in those countries by
the downfall of Count Czernin. The
German people and the German ele-
ment in Austria resent the retirement
of the minister, and after his resigna-
tion was announced, began a vigorous
campaign for the appointment as his
successor of former Premier Tisza,
Count Andrassy. or another Hunga-
rian whose views agree with theirs.
The Mittag Zeitung of Vienna says
Count Czernin's fall was due in part
to lack Of agreement with the emperor
in regard to Poland and to his attacks
on the CZechs.
The same elements which deplore
the fall Of Count Czernin are begin
ming to attack the German foreign
minister, DR.. Won Kuehlmann on the
pretext that he did not protect Ger
economic interests sufficient
ly in the treaty of Brest-Litovsk.

LONDON. April 16.-In discussing
the man-power bill in the House OF
Commons, Premier Lloyd George ask
ed whether conscription in Ireland
was to be the governments only ans
wer to the report of the most remark
able convention ever held in Ireland.
Such an answer would be regarded
unsatisfactory, not only in Ireland,
but in England, he said. If there was
trouble in Ireland arising from refusal
to legislate after the Irish convention
and only conscription was offered,
any resistance in Ireland would meet
with sympathy here, which would
paralyze the effort to enforce con-
scription in Ireland.
The premier referred especially to
the attitude Of the labor party, ad-
ding:
"It is useless to put this bill on the
statute book unless we intend to en-
force it and it is useless to try to en-
force it, unless behind the govern
has been justly treated. Moreover,
Ireland is not the only country to be
considered.
America Supports Bill.
GAS to America, the opinion reach
ing the government is that sentiment
in America supports the bill provided
self-government is offered Ireland. 1t
is vital to us at the moment that
America is coming to our aid through
the most remarkable decision ever
taken by any executive. President
Wilson's decision was not without diff
ficulty, but it was the only way Amer
lea could render practical assistance
in this battle.

PARIS, April 17.-Standing before a
firing squad in the forest of Vincennes,
early today, Paul Bolo Pasha, con-
denim traitor, lost entirely the attitude
OF Indifference he had maintained SUBJ
sequent to and during his trial. When
the order to fire was given, the rifles
spoke and Bolo crumpled up with sew
eral bullets in his head.
Escorted by several guards Bolo left
the Sante prison forty-five minutes be-
fore his execution. After leaving the
automobile at Vincennes, he listened
to the exhortation of prison chap
lain. Then his eyes were bandaged
and he went without struggle to his
place before the firing squad.

C0NFESSES Line

Suggest Withdrawal of Troops
from Ypres to Prevent
Breaking of Line.
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, April 17.-There is no in
clination here to minimize the seri-
BUSINESS of the loss of Bailleul and the
possibility that it may lead to the
necessity of evacuating Ypres and
Passchendaele.
Under the heading "They still ad-
vance," the Daily Mail says that up
to this time in their advance the Ger
mans have been in marshy ground.
Yesterday they captured the first Of
the important ridges by storming
Wytschaete, being aided by the fall
of Bailleul and thus "the security Of
the Ypres salient, SO long the bull
wark of our left and touched with
such immortal memories to us, is i'm
perilled."
The Daily Graphic thinks it would
be wise to withdraw the British
troops from Ypres and Passchendaele,
ito avoid the risk of their being cut
off and compelled to surrender"
1t continues: THAT the situation
is made more serious by the loss OF
Bailleul is obvious and it would be
dishonest to pretend otherwise"
The paper adds, however, that as

tanned, while she is exhausting her
self in order to force decision.
Correspondents on the front say the
Germans have used up 120 Of their
200 divisions in the west and have
been able to bring another two divis-
ions from Russia.
These unpleasant reverses must
be faced steadily" says the Times.
Their significance must neither be
minimized nor exaggerated. Far
more serious than the loss of ground
is the revelation of the growing
weight of the German pressure.
I'VE hear far too much of the en-
emy's losses, mistakes, difficulties
and of their failure to reach appointed
objectives on particular days and not
enough about the serious fact that
they are still bringing fresh divisions
from Russia"
The Times says the enemy will con-
tinue drawing on their reserve in
Russia until "allied statesmen stop
dreaming vain dreams about Russia
and do something practical to COM
pei the enemy to cease depicting the
Russian front"

pose to better our position at once.
plans are in preparation for state
wide drive to be launched on May Z,
the anniversary of the sinking of the
Lusitania, to get 400 more Indiana
doctors into the Medical Reserve
Corps. Meetings are to be held in
each county in the state on that date.
Speakers will be in attendance to pre-
sent the case and to take the appli-
cations of men who are willing to go
to the aid of their country in the pres
ent emergency. We now have 610
who have offered their services and
have been recommended for appoint
ment.
THE trouble in Indiana does not
seem to have been lack of interest on
the part OF the medical profession, or
unwillingness to volunteer so much as
4 failure to realize that there is
shortage of doctors in the war service.
Many older men who had been in the
army reserve were weeded out because
Of physical condition incapacitating
them for the strenuous work required
at the front. The number of doctors
sent across the sea has exceeded the
number Of those recruited recently
and the result is a shortage in the
available reserve. which the govern
ment is anxious to make up as soon
as practicable.
There is no class of men sacrific-
ing more than the doctors of the coun-
try. They not only are called on to
risk their lives in the danger zone,
but they are required to put in long
and strenuous hours. Furthermore, A
doctor who goes to the front gives up
his practice, closes his Office and prac-
tically has to start anew in his pro-
fession when he returns. Hundreds
have done that in Indiana and more
hundreds may be depended upon to
respond to the new call that has been
