Mrs. Lindsey on Way East
to Join Husband, Who Is III

Lincoln, Neb., April 5.-Mrs. Ben
B. Lindsey, here for brief time to-
day, enroute to New York to see
her husband, Judge Ben B. Lindsey
of the Denver juvenile court, who
is ill in that city, stated she had re-
ceived no additional word as to her
husbands condition since leaving
Denver yesterday.
Mrs. Lindsey added that her hus
band probably was suffering from
stomach trouble, together with a
nervous breakdown, which might
have been caused by his strenuous
work on behalf of the government.
He was at the Biltmore hotel, New
York City, and probably would go
from there to Battle Creek, Mich,
she said.
Judge Lindsey returned several
months ago from France, where he
spent about six months as repre-
sentative of the committee on pub
lie information.
