Indianapolis, Dec. 5.-Elected to the house of the Indiana general as- sembly without having made speech or without having taken an active part in her campaign, Miss Elizabeth Rainey of Indianapolis. is truly a choice of the people. Miss Rainey was the only woman in Indiana to win a position greater than county office. She was elected on the repub- : lican ticket. She made the race at the request of two non-partisan clubs the Women's City club and the Womens Department club of Indian- apolis.
 Being member of the general as- sembly is all new to Miss Rainey, but she has some definite ideas concern ing the activities of that body She favors the so-called short ballot and is of the opinion that no laws should be passed except those absolutely needed. T have in mind now some educational bills, the uniform mar riage and divorce law being prepared and bill relating to illegitimate chill dren which I shall no doubt support, she said.
 Miss Rainey states she cannot un- derstand why laws relating to wom- en and children should always be linked together. They are two en- tirely separate matters just as much as are laws relating to men and chill dren," she declared. T favor the best possible care of the sick and in- jured war veterans, and state bonus

Factory Timekeeper Admits He

Detroit, Mich. Dec. 5.--With tn,
 arrest and confession of George w
 Pemmitt, timekt eper at the Rive
 Rouge plant of the Ford Motor Com pany payroll frauds which may
 reach s20.000 have been uncovered
 Pemmitt, arraigned last evening pleaded guilty to specific charge oi defrauding the Ford Company out o S2,466.37. He was held for the next term of Circuit Court in $5,o00 bail
 Pemmitt according to his story usel II men as accomplices in his | frauds, two of them University oi Michigan students. According tc Chief Richard Burguson's report of the confession. Pemmitt kept the l 1 men on the' payroll after they left the plant on Sept. 1, thus defrauding the Ford company out of $10,0O0 in three months.
 Each of the il has made restitu- tion of his share of the spells, $35O and upward, say the police, who be- lieve that Pemmitt kept the rest. Ford officials, checking up the books, declare there is further shortage of s1o,oOo but that this may not be chargeable to Pemmitt.
 Good Motive at First
 The timekeeper is said to have ex- plained that at first he was actuatec by desire to help college students through school. Later. however, he desired to enrich himself, as it ap- peared so easy.
 Two of the University of Michigan men who were in with me are or phans," reads the confession the po- lice gave out. T learned from them that they had no one to see them through. They were intelligent boys and 1 saw that they had an opportun- ity to become great men if they didn't have to worry about money. I was a time clerk with ambitions. realized, though, that they had the chance in the world that didn'tshaye. did not have the money they needed to see them through college, so I decided to steal it.
 About the end of August, learned they were going back to college with not enough money for the year, so I told them to go to Ann Arbor and I would help them. They gave me their time cards and I turned them in to the paymaster's office regularly and got their pay. sent most of the money to them.
 Then began to go out little. I found that I needed more money. I saw was getting away with their time cards, so I began to approach others who were leaving the company By Sept. IS, had the cards of eleven men. I paid them for the cards, and | had another fellow in the office who | got the money.
 T don't care what they do to me. | hope they look after my mother and sister,"
 According to police at Springwells, Pemmitt is the sole support of his mother and sister. In later confess i sion to Robert M. Toms. Chief Assist mt Prosecuting Attorney, he is said Q have admitted that he spent some of the money for an automobile and paid S85 a month for an apartment occupied by woman friend.
 It is said that the two Michigan tudent. accomplices have repaid 1000 each and will make up the bal nee that they received. It is not bought that they will be prosecuted.
