Mr.. Marley has recently come into
some prominence among Criminal Court
lawyers, particularly since it has been
rumored that he stands in" with Claude
Morley, the Criminal Court Investigator,
whose duty it is to present evidence to
the grand jury.
In the first investigation of the Lingen-
felter case many witnesses who expected
to be called before the grand jury were
aot examined.
After the second investigation, the
grand Jurors issued n statement in which
they charged that the evidence addueed
was not sufficient to support the Facts as
published in the newspaper.
Claude Worley. the particular frienu
Of Attorney Markey, declared following
the first failure OF the grand Jury to In
dict Lingenfelter that he knew nothing
about the case"
Efforts to learn from Mr.. Worley and
other attaches of the prosecutors once
who was defending Lingenfelter were un-
availing, although Mr.. Marley made no
EFFORT to conceal his connection with the
affair.
According to a parent living on Har-
Ian street. whose young daughter was
attacked by Roy Lngenfelter' two
women and a man called At her home

She stated that one Of the women
said the man was an attorney, but that
the man remained outside Of the house
that night and the two women dii the
talking.
one OF these women said she was Mrs.
Lingenfelter, mother Of Roy Lingenfelter,
and the other said she was Mrs. Vance,

II was said that Mrs. Vance on that
occasion dld most OF the talking and

Officials Say Brightwood Fig
ures Too High.

Bids for School No. 70, located in

of school commissioners in session last

mate of the board is that the school
could be built for $206,00O
When Merritt Harrison, architect, ex
planned that additional wall space and
plans for later additions were partially
the reason for the additional cost, Pres

were higher than the board could afford
to pay.

ASTON CHARGES
Worthy of Confidence of
People, He Says.
Special to The Times.

Special to The Times.
ROCKVILLE, Ind. Oct. 20-In a
speech before an enthusiastic audience of
men and women voters. Samuel NJ. Rails
ton, former Governor of Indiana. declared
that no political party is worthy of the
confidence of the people that does not deal
with the League Of Nations in an open
minded manner and along constructive
lines
He outlined the course the Democratic
party proposes to pursue and pointed out
that this course is the "surest, if not the
only practical, means of maintaining the
peace of the world and terminating the
insufferable burden of great military and
naval establishment.
The Democratic party presents q con-
structive plan by which all the great ma
lions of the earth viii be pledged united
for the maintenance of peace of the
world. The Republican party has moth
lag to offer on this question. Senator
Harding has said that he has not a con-
struetive thought along this line.
The league is vehemently denounced,
but the denouncers do not offer scheme
for dealing in the future with interna-
tional> questions that they are willing to
offer for the consideration of the public
The speaker declared the Republican
leaders are conducting a campaign of
deceit on the Overruling question of the
league
'The senatorial cabal which is con-
Quoting the Republican campaign is not
square in its dealings with the different
camps into which the Republicans are
low divided. It is lacking in frankness
in it's discussion of certain sections OF
the league.
Article 10 is one of the most humane
provisions of the covenant. 1t is designed
to protect those of it's members not
strong enough to defend themselves
against attacks of outlaw nations-and
yet this cabal levels fits heaviest guns
against this provision"

what 1t cost him to actually produce the
corn plus his profit.
On the basis OF a production of 49,
100000 bushels Of corn this fall, Indiana
farmers win lose s262, 100000 as a result
of the arbitrary price-fxing by the Chi
cago Board of Trade, of which Mr.. Nc
Cray is g member.
With the 1920 Government census re-
port giving this State a population of
1880. ga, the loss would cost every man,
woman and chilli in the State $s9.57.

Trade and referred to it as the biggest
