The full text Of the Republican plat
form as prepared for submission to the
State convention today, follows:
The Republicans of Indiana in con-
vention assembled reaffirm their stead
fast devotion to the principles of the Re.
established institution-the orderly proc
esses of government, the honor Of the
Nation. the upholding of American rights
abroad and the prosperity and welfare
OF American citizens at home.
We congratulate President Harding
upon the accomplishments of the first
year of his Administration which have
left his fellow countrymen and the world
his debtors. Under his leadership, there
was initiated and carried to a successful
conclusion, the greatest single move ever
made toward the end Of all war-the con-
ference for the limitation of ornaments,
conceived and called by President Hard
ing, Its produce being promptly ratified
by Republican Senate.
We hail the treaties agreed upon In
that conference as great forward steps
in the interest Of the world and humanity.
IMPROVEMENT
IN BUSINESS.
We commend the business Administra-
ton of President Harding. The increase
I'm value of Government securities and
the abolition of the nuisance taxes, as
well as the Improvement in general bust
ness. are due to the cumulative effect
OF the policies OF the Republican Admin
istration.
The enactment Of the splendid budget
law by a Republican Congress, in re-
Spouse to a request OF a Republican
President, is but typical Of the hearty
cooperation and harmony which exists
between the legislative and executive
branches of the Government under its
Administration by the Republican party.
We commend our Republican Congress
for its splendid record; for the several
acts which extend legitimate aid to the
basic industry OF agriculture: for the
laws for the revision and reduction Of
taxes.
BENEFIT To
WAGE WORKERS.
We commend Congress for handling the
industrial situation as a problem in which
all Americans are yitally concerned, ano
for its avoidance Of all efforts to cure
industrial depression with. radical and
spcialistic remedies which would only
work greater injury to the wage earners.

INCREASING IN
POLICE RECORD
Women Robbers and Bandits
!. Operating Successfully
Along Gold Coast.

I CHICAGO. May 25.-Women robbers
and bandits are on the increase, accord
ing to records Of Chicago police.
greater number Of robberies by
women has been reported during the first
part Of the present year than ever be-
fore in the city's history.
While women criminals formerly were
connected with robberies involving SMALL
amounts, now the charges often run into
the thousands.
The largest proportion Of robberies
by women are the work of thieves who
gain entrances to homes posing as maids,
the records show. Maids, police believe,
operate usually as members Of gangs, en-
abling them to get away with bulky loot.
Authorities today sought a maid"
who gave the name Of agnes Swanson"
in obtaining employment at the home of
owen w. Brewer, wealthy Gold Coast
resident. When the family was away
from home on the third day of the maids
employment, she walked out with $4,000
worth Of jewelry and silverware.

Garner Is assured that relief Is at hand
from the Industrial depression in which
the Democratic Administration left them.
We favor the earliest possible repeal OF
the present Democratic tariff law under
which there has been widespread de-
preston and unemployment before and
since the World War, and the enactment
Of a protective measure extending to
American labor and enterprise tariff rates
fully equallzing the cost OF production at
home and abroad. We predict that the
enactment of tariff law adequately pro-
tective of American labor, in conjunction
with the other constructive measures Of
the Harding Administration. will be fol-
lowed by complete resumption OF indus
try and an era OF prosperity without
parallel in our national history.
INDORSE RECORDS
OF u. 5. SENATOR'S.
We unqualifiedly Endorsed the records

Watson and the Republican members Of
the lower House Of Congress. They have
played leading part in the constructive
Legislative program OF Congress and have
given the fullest and most sympathetic
cooperation to the Executive branch Of
the Government
We would emphasize the fact that to
complete the program which the Repub-
l1can party hns initiated 1t Is necessary
to continue the heartiest cooperation
which now exists between the Congress
and the President, and to this end we
pledge our efforts to the election OF that
statesman and scholar, former Senator

lican delegation in the lower House Of
Congress.

John R. Voorhis, Tammany president
of the Board Of Elections, in reply
ing yesterday to the request Of A. S.
Gilbert, Deputy Attorney General, in
charge Of the Election Bureau in
this city, that the election law be fully
complied with to prevent fraudulent
registering and voting in New York,
admitted that it had not been dore
and probably could not be done. Mr.
Gilbert, in recent letter to Commits
sioner Voorhis. asked for a copy of
the lists Of deaths, convictions and
removals of registered voters of 1921
in this city, which the Board Of Eiec-
tions is required to furnish under the
full meaning of the election law.
Il would state" said Commissioner
Voorhis, chat at th@ conference held
with you in the general office Of this
board at it's request. the difficulties
impracticability and almost, if not
quite, impossibility of strictly COM
plying with the requirements of tie
section of the sta tute you refer to as
calling for such information was fully
explained by this board to you, and in
view thereof it was not deemed by this
board advisable to publicaliy adini it
the enactment by the Legislature of q
statute portion of which it was not
possible 20 comply with, even with the
aid and cooperation of the Depart
ment of Police, the Department of
Health and the respective District At
torneys of the five counties constitut-
ing the City of New York.
Take, for instance, the matter of
the daily removal or changes of resi-
dence that occur with the one million
and a quarter registered voters in this
city, and which the statute requires
shall be ascertained and recorded
throughout the year. 1t must appear
TO every intelligent and tho,ghSsut per-
son to be hopeless iinpossibility, to
be done at an enormous expense to the
people Of this city, with no benefit
whatever resulting therefrom, by way
of preventing fraud either in the ap-
preaching registration or elections.
"As the registration of 1921 is at
present, at the request of this board,
being rigidly and minutely investigated
as in the past and inquiry from house
to house respecting all registrations of
the last year, the report OF such in
vestigations, when received by this
board, constituting the basis for the
challenges to be filed with the boards
of inspectors when acting as registrars
of election for 1922.
an pursuing this course the Board
of Elections think they are carrying
out the intent of the law and are
adopting the methods found most
efficient for the prevention of fraudu-
lent registration and fraudulent voting
by and through the cooperative work
of the State Superintendent of Elec-
tions with the Attorney General, Dis
trict Attorney and Board of Elections,
and which would obviate what is much
desired by all good citizens--a neces-
sity of the useless employment of a
very large number of persons and con-
sequent waste of an immense amount
of public money, with no good results
to be obtained thereby"

Declaring that the suicide note found
at midnight last night beside the body
OF John Fl. Greene, an eighteen-year-old
student of New Rochelle, was not in his
sons handwriting, John j. Greene, Sec
retary of the Johns Manville Company,
has demanded that the police of sew

investigation in an attempt tos pros

dered
The body was found at the side of
the Benson road, Fairfield, Conn, and
the boys motorcycle was a short dis
tance away. Near the body was q
.36 caliber revolver, with two cartridges
missing. He had been shot through
the head. According to Sheriff Elwood.
the note found at the same time indi-
Gated that Greene had contemplated
suicide for two years, that he was driv-
en- to his act by an unhappy love af-
fair, and that he blamed Norwalk
man for the wreck of his romance. The
Sheriff said the note stated that
yesterday was ""to have an understand
ing"
The father of the boy said to-day ii
there were any unhappy features about
the love affair in Norwalk, he was un-
aware of them.
$50 far as I know John never had a
revolver in his hand" he declared
There is grave doubt in my mind
about it being suicide. am very sure
that the note which caused the authori-
ties to call it suicide was not written
by my son. 1t is not his handwriting.
besides he is not the kind of boy to
seek such an escape from trouble"
1t was learned here to-day that Mr..
Greene came to Norwalls last Tuesday
in quest of his son. He told the police
/ that he had bought the youth motor
cycle, given him $500, and started him
off to the Rensselaer, Polytechnic In
stitute, where he was to fit himself to
become q mechanical engineer. When
he did not appear at the college, the
elder Greene started in search Of him.
The police say that while here he ques-
toned a pretty choir singer. with whom,
he declared, his son was infatuated.
On being told by the girl that his
son had not been in Norwalk for
long time, the police say, Mr.. Greene
returned to his home in New Rochelle.
The next day the young man arrived
and registered at the Royal James Inn.
He had many friends here, having
been graduated last June from the
Harstrom Preparatory School in Nor
walk. The police say that he spent
several days here, part of them in
walking and riding with the singer.
The girl, who is eighteen. is de-
scribed as vivacious blonde. Neither
she nor her father would make any
comment tonight on young Greene's
death
