Brookville, Ind, Aug. Twill II.
Hays, chairman of the Republican
National Committee, will not be Il
candidate for the Republican NOM
ination for Governor of Indiana. lie

attention to the national chairman
ship. Mr.. Hays, in a brief state
ment, announced his decision to-day
at the midsummer meeting of the
Indiana Republican Editorial As
sociation at Magnesia Springs. His
statement follows:
1T is difficult for me to express
the gratitude which l feel for the
assurances that have come to me
relative ito the Governorship. The
friendship and confidence which
these assurances prove mean more
to me than anything else and move
me very deeply.

II am sensible of the privilege
incident to the opportunity for serN-
ice and distinguished honor in the
Governorship of Indiana, but [ cam
not, however, further consider be-
ing candidate. l am committed 20
definite undertaking and l shall
finish that job. The work in COLI
neCllOn WIN the hepublcau utt-
tional craftsmanship is daily be-
coming so all-absorbing and the i'm
portance of the successful outcome
so vital that there l must do that
which it is given me to do, and must
do it to the hilt
ut has been thought by many
of my friends that l could do both,
but | know that it is impossible
to give the hundred per cent. in
initiative and execution due eacli
position if l have the other on my
mind.
Believing this as l do, then my
course is clear. l must do the one
or the other. There is no doubt
about a complete Republican vic
tory in Indiana and the nation,
and it is simply for me to decide
where l may be able to do the
largest good and where my duty
lies. This, l believe, is in the work
which l have in hand in aiding IN
sofar as is in my power to bring
the complete Republican national
victory so absolutely essential to the
country's welfare. Therefore, 1
shall not be a candidate for Gov
ernor."

ASK OVERTHROW
OF Bella KUN
Americans in Vienna See in
Forcible Expulsion Only
Way TO Be Rid of Him

Vienna. Wednesday, July 80. =
Unless the Allies assume the defl-
mite policy of forcibly eXpelling Bella
Kun, the communist leader, Amer
leans here who are informed as to
the situation believe he will con-
tinue as dictator for weeks or
months, according to his own will.
The Allied representatives here
nave done all in their power in an
attempt to reason with Bella Kun
and to move his patriotism to per-
suade him to deliver the government
into the hands of the Socialists,
rather than those of a few minor
ity communists. There have also
been various conferences between
General Boehm, the Hungarian war
minister, Magoston, the Hungarian
peoples commissary, and other re-
liable Socialists in an attempt to
evolve a reasonable plan, but so far
Bella Kun continues to parley with
out accepting.
Bella Kun is said to feel that his
position is stronger because of the
new harvest coming in which gives
the Soviet more food, especially as
thousands of Hungarians continue
to flee, thus making fewer mouths
to feed.

to-day that his country would not
be quiet so long as Bella Kun was
permitted to disturb her politics.
He said that Hungarian soldiers
were melting to disorder and that
requisitions of private houses in
cities and villages were going on
near Vienna.
The Hungarian soldiers are obey
ing orders so long as they get food
and money and because of this fact
1t is not thought probably that Bella
Kun will be overthrown by forces
inside Hungary. AS in Russia, men
without friends over the frontier
are obliged to join the army in or
der to live. The power of Bella Kun
is also due to the inertia of the
educated classes and others who are
worn out by the war and have no
strength to struggle against the
rule of terror
The Soviet power is further
strengthened by carefully cultivated
propaganda to the effect that any
thing done against it is against the
rights of the workingman, and that
facts printed regarding its failure
emanate from the capitalistic press.
Some results of the work of the
Soviet factories are that iron coins
