BODY OF DARCY IS
 STILL UNCLAIMED


 Although questionnaires. with his finger prints attached, have been sent to the war department and prac- tlcally every large city in the United States. no information that will lead to the family connections of pr. Jack Lewis Darcy, who killed himself three weeks ago in the Oregon Hotel, Fifth avenue, has been received by Coroner Russum or Johns Undertak- ing Co. The remains of Darcy are still being held at the chapel of Johns.
 D'Arcy committed suicide in the hotel room where he was lodging by taking potassium cyanide from which he died a few minutes after swallowing the poison. Letters found in his possession and information contained on his discharge, accred- tied the dead man with being cited for bravery while under fire in the World war, with being French avia- tor and having been decorated for saving the life of a comrade.

it was expected by the authorities that they would be reinforced by 25 others.
 The Pennsylvania authorities at Avella. the nearest town in that state to the scene of the fight and the place where the mob gathered before 1t began it's march last night were arresting suspected persons and questioning them. One man who had sought medical aid in a hospital in Washington shortly after noon, was turned over to the district attorney and later taken to Avella.
 Thomas H. Duvai. who was in the fight with his father but escaped unhurt was elected sheriff by the county court, and among his first duties, arranged with ". s.

political advantages the President would not change 1t.
 In the time of their distress, 1t was easily dscernibie that the farmers wanted a victim, someone to hold responsible for their nilsfortunes. The politicians offered Harding. Senator Heflln went to the extreme of per- sonal abuse despite the fact that Hard ing is an Alabamian, southernSr Sr and democrat and was appointed by President Wilson, and made per manent governor.
 Heflin charged that Harding voted the Eepublican ticket in order that he might hold his job, although Harding remained in Washington during the campaign and did not go to Birming- ham to vote Heflin charged that he was the tool of Wall street whereas the federal reserve system was con structed to prevent the manipulation of the money market by Wall street. When Harvard university conferred the degree of L.B. D. on Harding last June, Heflin contended that Harvard University had come under the dom ination of Wall street. Nothing nag been too severe for Heflin to say against the governor.
 Williams Bitter
 There have been interesting side lights. One of tho bitterest critics or Harding has been John Skelton Williams, who was reappointed comp troller of the currency bat never confirmed. At the instance of Will Hams, who spoke through Hefiin and others, an investigation was ordered by joint congressional commmittee composed of senators and representa- tives serving on the two agricul- tural committees. Williams, on the stand, repeated his charges, and Harding answered them. At one time. Harding challenged Williams to com bat. The verdict of the board did not sustain the charge that for the ills of agriculture tho deflation policy of the government was re- sponsible.
 And then in January, Senator Glass of Virginia, made a speech defend ing the board The speech was judged such an excellent and accu- rate representation of the function- ing of the board that it was adopted as a text by 23 colleges and uni- ernor of the board, federal reserve banks gave the Glass speech wide circulation.
 Demands Inquiry
 Senator Hefiin, learning that the speech had been circulated in Ala bama. regarded the move as personal and taken for the specific purpose of Idefeating him for reelection. He demanded an investigation. Finally the Senate passed a resolution call ing on the banks to notify the Sen ate just how many copies of tho Glass speech had been circulated. and what cost had been made necessary. The information was that the speech

 Ceed Edward Barrett as Committeeman
By FRED H. GORMLEY Montgomery Bureau, The Age-Herald, 22I-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, July 17.-(Special.) Senator Oscar w. Underwood has notified friends of Frederick L. Thompson, member of the United States shipping board and publisher of the Mobile Register and News Item, that he is supporting MT. Thompson for democratic national committeeman from Alabama, and is urging them to join in the state wide movement which was launched last week.

Thomp- son and in this movement he is be- ing supported by Senator Conner, while friends of the present state-=.d . ministration have become active.
 Mrs. McNeil Aligned

McNeil, na- tional committee woman, is citizen Of Birmingham and that Birming ham, through Mrs. McNeil, will have representation on the national com mittee even though MT. Thompson be given the position of national committeeman.
 Mrs. McNeil was named national committee woman by the national committee when the franchise was given the women two years ago. AL though the plan for the selection of the national committee woman in the future has not been worked out, it is probable she will be named in the primary two years hence.
