the question Of why the Democratic
state committee was not consulted in
the appointment Of William Z. Elder as
collector Of internal revenues for In
diana stiu IS asked the question Of who
appointed the census supervisors for tho
thirteen Indiana districts has arisen
In this case Washington dispatches
indicate that the Democratic state com
naittee recommended the appointments.
Il was also stated that Vice President
Marshall was not consulted. In fact.
it was int1mated that the names were
sent directly from Indianapolis TO the
-0-sartment Of commerce.
The queer part about the transaction
is that Fred Van Ncys, Democratic state
chairman. denies he nominated the men
IIo said he simply sent the names Of
candidates to the department and in
cases where there were more than one
candidate no recommendation was made
The question now IS; Who made the
