COURTS DECISION
EAGERLY AWAITED
IN FAMED SCANDAL
Public Wants to Know
What Judge Thinks of
Parentage
IRy Associated Pressl

South Bend, Ind, Sept. 27-With
the hearings in the case of Harry Pou-
lin, charged by Mrs. Augusta Tiernan,
with the paternity of her ten months
old child, ended, persons interested
were today awaiting the verdict of
Judge Chester L. Ducomb, scheduled
to be announced Saturday morning.
The hearings beun more than a week
ago, came to close late yesterday.
The inlprobability of a woman in
the position of Mrs. Tiernan, bring
ing before the public, the story of her
relations with another man, unless
the acts actually occurred, such as the
plaintiff has done, was emphasized by
Prosecutor Jellison in summing up
the states case.
Mrs. Tiernan had "exiled herself
from society" had voluntarily relin-
quished her home, had deprived her
self of her children and the compan-
ionship of her husband, not for re-
venge or for money, but because her
assertions are the truth and Harry
Polllin must face the TRUTH" the pros
ecutor said.
Tiernan has stood by his wife in
this action, not for revenge, he con-
tinued, "for the sake of justice. The
case involves the right of father to
be called a father and to be king in
his own domiile"
In losing their case, the defense at
.torneys argued that the plaintiff had
some ulterior motive for seeking re-
venge against Poulin and maintained
that the prosecution had not estab-
lished that the baby might not be
Tiernan's offspring. They emphasiz-
ed the point that Professor Tiernan
had at first accepted the child as his
own.
THE alton of these two persons,
coming into court to prove this child
illegitimate-to label it so that it
can be scorned by the world for the
rest OF its life, said Attorney Swartz
of the defense, is "to satisfy Mrs.
Tieruan's desire for revenge for Pou-
Inns ignoring her"
1t has been indicated that both sides
that if decision is rendered against
them Saturday by Judge DecOmb,
they will take the case to a higher
court.

Fleet Hurries to Athens.
(By Associated Pressl

London, Sept. 27.-A number of
Greek warships and transports man
ned by revolutionaries have left the
island of Mytilene, off the coast of
Smyrna, and are proceeding toward
Athens, according to messages from
authoritative sources received here.
According to the same sources the
~oyoluttc1ar', rsc~e,rers stevted on
the islands of Mitylere ana Chios
among the soldiers and refugees
from the Smyrna district.
All officers who refuse to join the
movement are being arrested, it is
added.
The immediate cause of the revolt
was an order for the rehabilitation
of the soldiers, who had been evacu-
ated to these islands, the men wish
ing to keep their rifles as trophies or
perhaps for personal protection. The
first intimation the authorities in
Athens had of the movement was the
appearance of an airplane over the
city, which showered pamphlets
drawn up in the name of the army
and navy and the population Of Mity-
lene, demanding the resignation Of
the government and the abdication of
Constantine.

Frady Is Granted
Freedom on Bond
of $4,000 by Davis
CBy Associated Pressl

West Palm Beach, Sept. 27.-De-
cision to grant a $4,000 bond to Ed
gar C. Frady, in prison in Miami,
charged with the murder of his wife,
was rendered last night by Judge E.
c. Davis, of the circuit court.
A writ of habeas corpus was filed
by the attorneys of the accused, in
which they requested that the pris-
oner be released on bail, basing their
request on the claim that Frady is
suffering from chronic Bright's dis
ease and complications, and that con-
'.ssd ir-arcera, inn .2 ~r1a fatal.
The case was argued, but decision
delayed until today.
Judge Davis stated that he had
carefully considered the report Of the
master in chancery, and that he had
based his decision principally upon
the testimony of DR.. Jaudon and 9TH
er personal physicians and nurses,
who had bean in constant attendance
upon Frady since last March. He
had considered the testimony of the
doctors for the state, he stated, but
he was of the opinion that their ex-
aminatiOns must of necessity have
been of more superficial nature, as
in most instances such examinations
had been of about 20 or 80 minutes
duration.

Despite the deteriorative effect Of
election of Senators by popular vote
instead of in the fashion prescribed
by the Founding Fathers, the Senate
is still perhaps the most distinguished,
authoritative and powerful legislative
chamber in the world. Its authorita-
tive character is likely to be accentu-
ated by the election to its membership
of two ''intellectuals" as distinguished
from able men of affairs and of poll
tics. Albert jeremiah Beverage is
likely to succeed Senator New for In
diana, and the seat of the late Senator
Boies Penrose to be occupied for the
full six year term by the present hold

invented to describe Henry Cabot
Lodge years ago at the commencement
of the Massachusetts statesman's
career. While the scholarship of Mr..
Lodge consists of an elegant dilettant-
ism, that Of Mr.. Pepper is solid, and
Mr.. Beveridge is occasionally brilliant.
Mr.. Pepper commenced as professor
in the Law School of the University
of Pennsylvania. He is the author
of profound legal works. His learn

a needed reinforcement to the Sem
ate. Of Mr.. Beveridge's Life Of
John Marshall, the illustrious Chief
Justice, whose contribution to the or
ganic Federal structure has been
ranked with those of Madison, Frank
lin, Hamilton and jefferson - of that
learned and comprehensive work, it
has been said that virtually it is the
constitutional history of the United
States in the formative period of our
federation, that it could have been
written only by great constitutional
lawyer and that its writing would
make Of it's author great constitu-
tional statesman. However, Mr..
Beveridge has great weaknesses,
which he can throw aside if he so
desires.
Senator Pepper with the late Sem
ator Philander Chase Knox produced
the profoundest and most learned OBJ
lection to the League Of Nations. Sem
ator Pepper believes Congressional
legislation, much or all of it, is so
loosely drawn and badly expressed
that its application is much embar-
raised. He cites the income tax law
as conspicuous example: That law,
he believes, could have been written
in clear and simple English whose
meaning would have been unequivocal,
whereas it's present writing isn't even
grammatical and puzzles lawyers and
courts to understand and construe.

carry the idea that Senator La Fol-

correct as Senator Smoot of Utah
(whose election is practically assur-
ed, he having been Endorsed by the
Mormon church, would be the next
chairman). This would take the chair
manship away from North Dakota
which certainly would be detrimental
to the state.
