CALLS BUTLER
TO OCONFER

Marion, Ohio. Jan. S.-Represent-
ative Butler of Pennsylvania,
chairman Of the house naval COM
mittee. was called into conference
today by President-elect Harding
to consider means for reducing
naval expenditures without i'm
pairing the efficiency of the ma
tons first line defense. Although
favoring . navy strong enough to
insure. safety to American shores
and to American commerce, the
president-elect feels that much Of
the present expenditure for the
naval establishment could be dis
pensed with by exercise Of greater
economy. and that possibly the ma
val building program could safe
ly be curtAiled.
Other callers ON Mr.. Harding's
list today included Daniel G. Reid.
the New York manufacturer and
financier; B. R. Inman. Indianapo-
lis chamber Of commerce; Repre-
sentative Taylor, Tennessee. and a
committee of the National Lumber
Manufacturers association, headed
by Wilson Compton, Chicago.

tives, cried out for assistance in

DAVENPORT MAYOR OPENS WAR ON REDS
Stein, Believed Hero Heir
To OFOrfut1e of Half Million. Is
Found in Milwaukee By Argus

John Stein, now known as John
Wagner Of Milwaukee, Wis, be-
lieved to be the man who saved the
late Mrs. Ada Burlingame from
drowning 30 years ago has been
located but his mind has failed him
to such an extent that he does not
remember the incident of his own
heroism.
However, County Treasurer
George Richmond remembers the
case and has recognized Wagner
as the man to whom rightfully be-
longs the half million dollars left
by Mrs. Burlingame in her will.
Relatives of Wagner also have q
hazy idea of the near-drowning ac-
cident in which Wagner was con-
nected, as given exclusively in The
Argus last Wednesday.
Wagner suffered a sun stroke
about 30 years ago at which time
he was nearly drowned in the Rock
river which resulted in his i'm
paired memory. In a telegram to
The Argus he says: Am John
Stein, now Wagner, but do not
recollect saving Mrs. Ada Burlin-
game"
A brother of the half-million dol
lar. hero, Henry A. Wagner of Con-
Nelson, Iowa, who was notified by
The Argus of his brothers fortune,
came to the newspaper Office this
morning relating Johns residence
here.
Left Here 2s Years Ago.
John Wagner left Rock Island
about Is years, ago. He told in
vestigators that his memory of
earlier years had been impaired as
the result of a sun stroke suffered
many years ago and that he couldn't
recall having saved any one from
drowning. Mrs. Elizabeth La
frenz, Cos Thirteenth avenue, a sis
ter-in-law to Wagner, remembers
the near-drowning of Mrs. Bur-
lingame and the saving of her by a
young man, who she now believes
to have been Wagner. Pictures
furnished by Mrs. Lafrenz have
been identified by Richmond as the
same man he recalls and knew to
have saved Mrs. Burlingame's life.

STATE UNABLE
TO BREAK FAST
Danville Woman Continues Abst.
nence In Spite Of All PerSua-
sfon-IIusband S0ftenS.

Danville, ILL.,. Jan. s.-(By United
Press.)-"If Great Britain could
not make MacSwiney break his
fast, how can we in our small way
compel a woman to eat?" --
This was the answer OF States
Attorney John H. Lewman. Ver-
million county, when he was asked
today II the state could do anything
to break the 31-day fast Of Mrs.
Sadie E. Harrington, who is using
this unique method in an attempt
to force her husband to get reiis-
.on."
An emacmted appearance Is the
only known effect Of the fast upon
Mrs. Harrington, who formerly
was a plump, fieshy woman. A To-
cal physician who examined her
declared her pulse and tempera-
ture were normal. Doctors say the
the chief danger in such cases is
heart failure, caused by overtaxing
the usual functions Of that organ.
although my husband is not .
bad man, he has no religion" she
said today. Il will pray and ab-
stain from food until he is convert
ed. On May Is the Lord told me
to do this"
The woman has also refused
medicine in which concentrated food
was concealed. Each Cay the rite
Of offering her food is performed.
with her unfailing refusal to take

business mar, is the woman's hus-
| band. :.
IF she wants to starve herself
I, to death, that's her business" he
scoffed in the incipient stages Of
the hunger strike. His heart grad-
ually softened, however, and We'd
/ nesday he wrote the pastor OF the
Church of God. EldoradO. Ill. ask
ing him to come to Danville and
urge Mrs. Harrington to abandon
/ her fast. Disciples Of the Church
Of God. who visited Mrs. Harrtng-
ton today, say she is not . member
Of their church but belongs to the
Pentecostal Church Of God.
| Meanwhile Danville Is IN . TO-
ment on the question Of the SIN.
cer;ty Of. Mrs. Harrington. Hsl
loyal friends claim that the Val
expression upon her face prove1
that she is really fasting. while tht
"doubters" say . peaked lool
doesn't mean starvation and q
ordinary pulse and temperatur,
are not In accord with . 4l-da,
