COPELAND THINKS
FIivver Maker Must, However, Receive
the Nomination of One of the
Old Parties.

Chicago If Henry Ford is NOM
mated by either party, he will be elect
ed, in the opinion of Senator Royal
S. Copeland, of New York, who denied
here last night that plans were set for
running him as mate with Ford on an
independent ticket.
Senator Copeland 1ntimated that
Ford had strong chances of winning
either party nomination if he would
but announce hA party afiliation.
The trouble is nobody seems to
know to which party Ford belongs, the
New York senator said. Il assume the
Republican party will not nominate
him unless he announces himself a
Republican. know the Democrats
will not unless he announces himself
Democrat
Ford will continue to be known as
the worlds greatest automobile manu-
facturer if he attempts TO enter the
White House through the third party
route, DR.. Copeland said. He declared
he had never seen Ford in his life and
could not accept place on any third
party ticket himself because he is a
Democrat.

Up to that moment l had always re-

Zion Coppers Josh
NeWLylUed Couple

This story is written for one pur-
pose-to prove conclusively that Zion
officialdom has a sense of humor.
Miss Dorothy Shaw bscame Mrs.
Eric Olson at high noon Saturday at St.
Matthews church. Outside the church
stood new sedan, its motor purring
softly. Friends of the family hung
a few Of the customary Just married"
placards on the rear of the car. Then
amid shower of rice and congratula-
tions the newly weds entered the wait
ing machine.
The bridegroom engaged the gears
and the machine disappeared south
on Sheridan road, enroute for Cleve-
land.
Thirty minutes later the phone at the
Shaw home rang INSTANTLY, but there
was no one home to answer it. Then
the bell on the instrument in the Al
fred Larsen home commenced a tattoo.
Mr.. Larsen answered and to his sur
prise learned that the couple were held
under arrest in the Zion Jail. The
charges were speeding and disturbing
the peace. Bail, it was announced,
was set at $3.50.
The banks had closed but Mr.. Lar
son made canvass among his friends
and collected the necessary funds. Ac-
companied by four other men he start
ed for Zion.
Several members of the police depart
ment were waiting for the "rescue
party" as it pulled in front of the
Zion bastile The officers immedi-
ately went into commissions of mirth.
1t developed that the motorcycle Of
ficer seeing the signs on the back of
the machine trailed them until his
speedometer registered three miles
over the Is miles allowed by law. He
then arrested them and in default of
bail locked them up. AS soon as the
newly weds had gotten in communica-
ton with their friends in Kenosha,
and the officers felt sure that they
were on their way, they released the
couple.
"We told them to go and sin no
more" the copners said between

HEAVY FIGHTING is
ON In HAMBURG
Fear Downfall of the Stressemann Cab
met as a Result of Troubles
in Bavaria.
BULLETIN
Berlin - Heavy fighting is re-
ported in advices from Hamburg
this morning, to be proceeding the
populous Barmbeck district, a
working class suburb northeast of
the city.

Berin-As the Reichsaarat, or fed
eral council assembled today to con-
slider the Bavarian situation, political
observers found little to make them
think that the Stressemann government
was not confronted with crisis that.
probably would mean its downfall !
The United socialist party, which
has three ministers in the coalition
cabinet and the communists, supported
by an increasing following, are dis
turbed over the fact that Reichswehr
divisions have been hurried to red
Saxony, whereas Bavaria openly dis
7bedient to the mandates to Berlin's
representatives is not subjected to
similar discipline. If satisfactory
understanding regarding Bavaria is not
reached the socialists may withdraw
their representation IN tie cabinet,
thus placing the German government
in well-ni1h untenable position.

cealment of the fact that he had felt
bitterly Inundated by the way the
police officer had caused his arrest and
presentation at the police Office.
Werner, who is president of the
United States National bank and en-
gagged as groceryman and general in
surance agent at 257 Milwaukee ave-
nue., was going home from work be-
tween six and seven o'clock Tuesday
evening riding bicycle and using a
hash-light. He was riding close to the
curb on Milwaukee avenue bound for
his home which is at 703 Milwaukee
avenue.
Officer Amberlang came along, halt
ed Mr.. Werner, told him he was ar
rested for violating the law by not
carrying a proper headlight to his
bicycle
Werner, who is a mild-mannered
man, commenced to argue the matter
with the police officer.
Il admitted that l had violated the
law, but urged that it was technical
violation, and suggested little lem
iency for the once" said Werner. "The
officer, however, refused 10 listsa to-

have always regarded myself as a
friend of the police, and want to boost
their work, and have protected them in
the past when some occasion has caused
the criticism of the public. But this
kind of rough-riding of citizen who
has done no great wrong seems to me
uncalled for.
Investigated by Chief.
Chief Logan assured Mr.. Werner
this morning that he would look into
the matter The police chief was be-
tween two fires, for it has been part
of his general policy that every citi-
zen should be treated alike, whether
bank president or factory polisher.
His orders to the patrolman is that
they should see that the laws are en-
forced irrespective Of person. Discre-
ton and courtesy has also been coun-
selled, and in carrying out the orders
of headquarters he has had to depend
on the common sense and level-head-
edness of the officers themselves.
The chief would not comment on the
situation other than to say that he
would get to the bottom Of the matter
as soon as possible.
BrittOn to Resign?
This was not the only matter both
ering Chief Logan in the administra-
ton of police affairs this morning. He
had before him the consideration of a
resignation by Officer Edgar Britton.
Officer Britton, who drew upon himself
the anger of Harry M. Baldwin, a Mar
ket Square business man, for the man
ner in which he caused his arrest one
day some months ago, after trivial
disagreement, resulting in formal
complaint against the officer, has again
come into "hot water"
The officer is alleged to have been
in some recent alteration with citi-
zen, and is said to have declared his
intention to resign from the Depart
ment some time today.

Paul LaPere, 81 years old, was ar
rested on Tuesday on orders from the
district attorney as he stepped from
the witness stand in the circuit branch
of the municipal court, where he APP
peared as defense witness for
Dominic (Micky) Salerno. LaPere
told the police that he had been
ordered to testify on penalty of be-
ing dumped off"
Today warrant was ordered issued
and held in allegiance pending the YER
dict of the jury on the Salerno case.
Salerno, who is married man, IS
charged with a serious statutory Of
tense with Edith Lungren.
LaPere's testimony, according to the
district attorney, was given to break
down the character of the girl, who
is witness for the state. He said
that he was patron of the Palace
Cafe where the girl is employed as
a waitress, and that he dated her up,
took her to the theatre, after which
the alleged immoral acts occurred.
Girl Denies Charges.
On the witness stand in rebuttal
testimony by the state, the girl said
that she had seen LaPere once or
twice in the restaurant, but denied
that she had ever attended a show
with him. or ever been in his COM
pany. She said she had never even
spoken to him.
When LaPere was taken to police
headquarters to be booked on charges
arising from the admissions he made
under oath, he told Lieut.. Charles
Rock that he had been ordered to give
the testimony under penalty of being
dumped off, He maintained, how
ever, that the statements he had
made were true.
The police, however, doubt the story
that the testimony was given under
duress. They say that this is mere
ly an excuse, given in the hope
of getting off,
II Serve Warrant Today.
Mr.. Symmonds said that the charge
in the warrant will be filled in fol-
lowing the return of the verdict of
the jury. If Salerno is found not
guilty, then it will show that the jury
believed the testimony given by La
Pere and he will be charged with the
statutory offense to which he testified
under oath on the witness stand. On
the other hand should the verdict be
guilty, it would tend to show that the
Jury disbelieved LaPere's testimony,
and the warrant will be served for
perjury which is a more serious charge.
LaPere in the meantime is being
held in the city Jail awaiting the find
ings of the jury. The district at
torney says that he is "hooked com
ing or going"

Aklahoma City, Okla.-The bitterest
fight precipitated since the converting
of the special session of the Okla
homa legislature, broke in the house
today when Representative w. j. Cal
lahan, Democrat, Latiner, introduced
a resolution providing for an inves-
tigation to determine who paid the
expenses Of house members when they
attempted to convene September 26
and were dispersed by military authori-
ties upon orders for Gov. J. G. Walton.
Callahan is a Walton supporter
The resolution was adopted after
brief but a criminious debate and
was referred to committee investi-
eating conduct of house members.
The resolution sought especially an
inquiry to determine whether the Ku
Klux Khan or certain interests in
Tulsa had contributed funds for the
attempted session.
Representative j. B. Phillips, Demo
crat, Cleveland county, assaulted Cal
lahan for his reflection on the house
members who sought to answer the
by the governor He demanded an
immediate investigation of the Lati-
mer solon's charge and declared that
If it is proved untrue he would move
Callahans suspension from the house.
Callahan rejoined that he had the
proof and dared the house to let him
produce his testimony.
An effort to file two executive
orders with the secretary of state was
made today by a clerk from the Of
flee of Governor ]. G. Walton. Miss
Una Roberts, assistant secretary of
state, refused to accept the papers in
view of the resolution adopted by the
state senate suspending the governor
incident may be made the basis for
court action to test the legality of
the executives suspension.
While the house fight was in pro-
gress, both Governor Walton and
Lieutenant Governor Trap arrived at
their offices, and were officially served
with the senate resolution adopted
yesterday suspending the folrmer
temporarily and naming the latter
acting governor during the impeach-
ment trial of Governor Walton
Lieutenant Governor Trapp declared
that he would seek an opinion from
George Short, state Attorney general,
as to the legality of the senate reso-
luton designating him acting COVER
nor during the trial of the chief
executive. He declared he will be
guided by the attorney generals find
ings, and that if he is informed he is
the legally empowered acting COVER
nor, he will perform the nominal rou-
tine duties of the executives office.
