At a conservative estimate it is said

day laborers, women. men, young and
old. He accepted amounts ranging from
$25 to several thousands of dollars on
promises Of profits ranging from so to

SCHEME WITHOUT
ANY NEW TRIMMINGS.
There was nothing new or original In
his scheme, so the story goes. He sim

Of an enormous return, representing him

of stocks and securities. 1t was the old.

TOPFOR MAYOR
City Hall Crowd FavOrs Board
Member With DispensatiOn
From the News.
LEMAUX NOT YET DOWN

Felix NJ. McWhirter. member Of the
board Of public safety. was given first
place by political prognosticators today
In the list of those who may possibly re-
ceive the support Of the city admins
tration crowd In the race for the Repuo-
iican nomination for mayor.
McWhirter has been considered a pos
sible candidate for mayor fer several
weeks. but politicians generally did not
view him with seriousness until they
learned. they said that the Indianapolis
News had passed out the word that he
should be the administration fayorite.
Interest In the choice OF the administra-
ton has been paramount among Repub-
licans since last Saturday, when, through
the unanimous election Of It's slate at tue
city convention this wing Of the party
rode into what 1t considered as complete
control of the city organization.
Those who circulated the report that
the board of safety member is 20 be the
News candidate said he had been decided
upon after the other possibilities had
been eliminated one by one and after a
prominent huancier had let 1t be known
he favored him.
The friends OF George LemauK, presi-
dent Of the board Of public works, said
they were inclined to Uelleve McWhirter
VIII be the administration candidate.
Lemaux will not be the administration
candidate, they said. because he has re-
fused not only to listen to the orders OF
the inancier, but also Of the News and

orders went contrary to his Idea Of what

FEDERAL AGENT
DECLARES COAL
BEYOND REASON
Testifies in Senate Hearing to
Control of Prices by
Agreements.
TOO MANY MIDDLEMEN

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-Some New
York and New England retailers made
profits altogether beyond reason" in
buying coal for SIS and selling to con-
sumers for $25 a ton, A. w. Riley Of the
Department of Justice today told the
Senate Manufactures Committee, consid-
cring the Calder coal regulation bill.
Retailers profits do not explain all
the excessive prices to consumers, he
added.
During the last two months, while
some consumers paid SIS a ton, Penn
sylvania mines sold coal at $13 and $l5
at the mines, Riley said.
At least four middlemen made profits
on coal sold at mines for $3.50 and to
the War Department for $11 a ton,
Chairman Calder said.
Hard coal producers control retail
prices by a system OF sales agents agree
ments, Riley asserted.
He read agreements whereby sales
agents pledged the mines to exercise their
best efforts to get high prices. not to sell
below market prices; TO show books to
mine representatives at any time and
withhold coal from delivery when prices
go down.
Anthracite producers fixed the price
schedules that sales agents agreed not TO
cut and the agents profits weer 25 ger
cent when they obtained hish prices,
Riley said

HOOVER'S CURE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2G.--The only So
luton to the present economic depres-
sion in the United States and through
out the world is extension of credit to
the starving countries of Europe, Herbert
Hoover, former food administrator, told
the House Agricultural Committee today.
Hoover's opinion on pending legisla ton
to prevent manipulation in hedging in
grain transactions was sought by the
committee.
IF we could devise some system Of
credits and set it in motion there would
be ample markets for our products" he
said. In due time those peoples could
repay their debts"
