POLICEMAN TELLS OF
HIS NARROWEST ESCAPE

Sergt. Ralph Dean of the emer-
gency squad holds a kindly attitude
toward Fate, whose caprice once
saved his life.
Some time ago the booze squad,
Of which he was then a member,
posted itself on the National Rd.,
east of the city. Soon they sighted
the automobile of Louis Engle,
laden with liquor. Dean said.
When he sighted the police in
front Of him Engle turned up a
road, but only to find Dean on the
running board.
Engle drew his gun and, thrust
ing it in Deans side, pulled the
trigger twice, according to Dean.
The cartridge failed to explode
and Engle was convicted both in
county and Federal Courts and
given heavy sentences.
THAT was my closest shave"
said Dean.

HOLD DUP MEN GET
$40 At GROCERY
Police Work on CIeWs of Past
Robberies.

Two colored hold-up men, believed
to be the same who robbed four gro
Gerry stores and also held up and
robbed a colored man Of $500, were
busy again Tuesday night, according
to reports to police today.
A colored man walked into H. V.
Warralrs grocery at 1877 w. Twelfth
St., and asked for some apples. War
rail- started to put some into a sack
when the door opened and another
colored man entered, pointing a re-
volver at him. The first man then
walked behind the counter and took
$40 from the cash register. The two
ran from the store.
The colored thief who first entered
the store was about five feet ten
inches in height and weighed about
16O pounds, the grocer said. He wore
a dark cap and coat. The grocer
could not describe the other robber.

Secret Conferences Now BEING
Held in Washington on
Policies.
LEADERS VISIT CAPITAL
Bryan and McAdoo Confer
With Board of Directors
of Party.
By United Press


WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-The
scattered elements Of the Democratic
party are being reunited through
secret conferences now being held in
Washington.
Definite congressional and popular
policies are being decided upon so that
la united program may be carried out
between now and the 1924 presiden-
tial election.
First William Jennings Bryan came
to confer with the board Of directors
Of the party: Senators Underwood,
Harrison, Robinson and Simmons, who
formulate the congressional policies
Of the minority.
Now William G. McAdoo, who is
visiting his father-in-law Woodrow
Wilson, has met these congressional
leaders and attempted to sway them
to concerted action, bringing the view
Of the Democrats from the far and
middle western regions.
AS result of these conferences two
points are being considered:
l.. Delaying legislation so as to
make an extra session Of the new and
more progressive Congress possible.
2. Dropping the Harris bill, which
would force appointment of three
Democrats on the American debt COM
mission which is now negotiating
with British representatives.
MCAdoo believes, it is learned, that
If the Democrats allow Congress to
adjourn in March they will lose their
greatest public forum in which they
can present their policies to the peo-
pie until next December.

Address by National

Opposition to extending additional

voiced by F. Z. Watkins of Cleveland,
president of the National Grain Deal

vention Of Indiana grain dealers at
the Board OF Trade building The
convention was In full swing today.
Hopeful signs in, the producing and
marketing Of grain are indicated,

ment to postwar conditions with a
feeling CT cooperation between the

Praises System
Watkins pointed in his address to
the twenty-six years Of service OF the
national association and asserted that
the customs and practices of the
grain trade have been nodded along
lines which have eliminated friction
and produced and perfected a system
whose dispatch and economy in the
merchandising Of grain and its prod
ucts Is not equalled in the handling
Of any other commodity of like amount
and Of equal Importance"
He announced that the association
Is seeking to have abolished taxes on
kilograms and telephone messages,
and to secure rate reductions by tele-
graph and telephone companies An
effort also is being made to abolish
the ''bulkhead charge" by railroads.
he said.
Turning to pending legislation the
speaker assailed the Norris bill, I'm
troduced by one of the self-appointed
champions Of the farmers" on the
ground that it is State socialism,
pure and simple" He said il would
plunge the Government into the
grain business with a corporation capt
talized at 500 600 600 capable OF ex-
tension to 100000 900 by means of
