Il Indiana Congress
men Are Seeking
Reelection.
SENATE RACE HOT
Republicans Adopt
Watchful Waiting
Policy.

With four more days left for
aspirants to congressional honors 10
file declarations with the secretary
of State and with forty-three candi-
dates also in the race, an analysis Of
the situation shows a keen contest
for the nominations in both the
major political parties in nearly
every congressional district.
On the face Of it. appearances are the
contests in the senatorial race may be
outstripped by the congressional rivalry.
Political interest Of the Nation, always
eentered in Indiana. has been enliyened
nmong Republicans by the spirited race
between Beveridge and New, and among
Democrats by the appearance of i've can
didates men of uniformly high caliber.
and to this situation a stampede to get
on the tirkets for Congress has been
added. In some districts where one or
two candidates were expected to fight 1t
out for the nomination as many as hYe
have appeared.
Numerical strength is regarded with
satisfaction particularly among the Demo-
Gratis, who believe the desirability of the
nominations augurs well for the ticket in
the fall The same applies to the Repub-
licaLs. except for the fact, with one ex-
ception. thirteen congressman are asking
denomination and reelection and they
feel opposition TO their denomination does
not constitute a complete Endorsement OF
their record.
Waiting to see what the other fellow is
going TO do is one Of the causes why no

Oh, Where, Oh Where Has
Beverly Gone? Oh, Where

Buried in the minutes Of the board of
public works today was an item which
caused some speculation among poll
ticians interested in the fight OF Harry
S. New AMI Albert J. Beveridge for the
Republican nomination for United States
Senator. The item recorded the sfact
Beverly Howard, negro Republican poll
tician Of the First ward had been grant
ed a leave of absence from his job as
junior field aid In the city civil engineer
ing department for forty days. The forty
days will be up short time after the
primary election OF May 2.
Some politicians wondered why How
ard, who was one Of the valuable work
ers in the Shank city organization last
fall was temporarily giving up a fairly
remuneratiye city job. Board member
William II. Freeman, who moved the
leave Of absence he given Howard, said
he did not know why the leave was de-
sired.

terly affection in this case" DR.. Brake
stone said.
Dr. Edward Cunat and other physi-
clans were still uncertain whether the
death Of Josefa would mean Rosa's
death also.
Surgeons have not yet given up hope
for Josefa, who is suffering from jaun-
dice. Her chances for life. however, are
slight, they agreed.
An A-ray to determine whether the
sisters can be separated IL one dies has
never been taken according to DR.. Brake
stone. Efforts will be made to part them
if Josefa dies, the doctors said.
Rosa smiled wanly as she talked with
her sonR Frantz. Occasionally she would
glance at her sister as doctors forced
medicine into Josefa's throat.
Josefa and Rosa were born in Austria.
They travelled with shows in Europe for
decade. The sisters arrived IN the
United States a year ago.
Rosa's husband was killed in the
World War.
ITS the strangest case in medical
annals" said DR.. Brakestone. MANY
Siamsee twins have been born, but they
seldom reach maturity. We cannot even
dare forecast what will be the result If
Josefa dies. Rosa may have to follow
her sister in death. She may not. We
are going to do our best to save her
life.
According to DR.. Brakestone's observa-
ti0ns, Josefa possesses the same love for
Frantz as does Rosa, the mother
Rosa, who was buoyant all morning
and spoke freely with her son, Frantz,
lapsed into a state of semi-cOma later
in the day. She awoke for few seconds
and gazed at her sister, Josefa, who has
been III stupor for several days. At
tendants said Rosa tried to speak, but
fell back unconscious.

BOLLES PLEADS
FOR LEGION TO
FIND MEN JOBS

A plea for 1000 posts Of the American
Legion and the general public to speed
up" and find jobs for the luckless World
War veterans of the country, was sent
from the Office of Lemuel Bolles, national
adjutant, here today.
In speaking of the 1egIon's campaign
to provide places for the 100000 iobless
ex- service men, BolIes said:
Reports which have reached US from
every section of the country tend to show
the industrial sections, as New England
and the Middle Atlantic States. are hav-
ing the hardest fight. New York, for in
stance has been able to place seven hun
dred jobless ex- service men out of 132 900
out of work. Connecticut could place
only five hundred, while thousands are
jObless.
"On the other hand, the agricultural
communities of South Dakota, Nebraska
and Wyoming. are 100 per cent free
from unemployment. Other figures are
encouraging, but far from satisfactory,
Our efforts will be centered in Maryland,
which succeeded on placing only l,SOO,
Virginia 500, Illinois $50, and Wisconsin
1900. These figures NAV be augmented
bit and the situation improved for
reports from many Of the larger cities
and towns have not yet been received.
ITO make these reports authentic, and
to find where we stand, we are having a
QUESTIONABLE sent out to our forty-eight
State departments. These call for an
accounting of how many men were en-
pIoyed when the drive started, how many
have been placed and the opportunity for
these 100 per cent places to take care OF
additional numbers.
"This last plan came with the receipt
Of information from a Maryland city 1t
had obtained places for every one of its
veterans. The committee kept on driving
and discovered there were openings for
100 additional former service men. They
went to Pittsburgh, Pa, where much
trouble was being experienced and 100
men from the Pennsylvania city migrated
to Maryland and went to work.

CHICAGO, March 2S.-Mme. Anna

All the artistic Pavlowa has is a
mere mans word for it and that's not
enough.
Andreas Pauley, called the great

are giving our girls big feet and de-
stroying the rhythm of their 'once

AYERS, are making them stiff-legged,
ungraceful and rheumatic.
"What an indictment" laughed the
dark-eyed Pavlowa, interviewed in
her luxurious apartments here today.

simply wonderful! They wear any

Paylowa's slim ankles and dainty

to that fact.

passing the grapes, she said:
Yes, nee. Juc once"
"Why," she resumed quickly, why
must your graceful American girl
dance it? 1t is so horrid, so vile, so
inartistic. How much better would
be proper ballroom dancing. Dancing
should bring out the motion of the
soul, character, the best in one. In
Russia, the teaching of dancing Is
regarded as important as that of
reading and writing. It should be so
in America. You have not, if l may
say it, the right kind of dancing
teachers. Who are they?
"If your girls were taught clean,
artistic dancing when they were very
young, they never would accept jazz.
