GOVERNOR Thief
is SENTENCED TO
TEN YEAR Term
McCray Not So Shrewd
AS Crooked Cal
Especial to The Daily worker)

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 3d.
Warren T. McCray, former governor
of Indiana, was sentenced today to ten
years Imprisonment in the Federal
prison at Atlanta, and fined $4,000,
by Federal Judge Anderson for using
the mails in scheme to defraud. I'm.
mediate preparations for the trip to
Atlanta were made.
Shortly after 1915 o'clock, Emmett
F. Branch. Lieutenant Governor, took
the oath of Office as governor. The
oath was administered by Chief JUS
tice Ewbank, of the State Supreme
Court.
Another Indictment Out.
There is an indictment now pending
against McCray and Amos d. Morris
former cashier of the discount and
deposit bank at Kentland, Ind, charg-
ing them with violation Of the nation
al banking laws.
McCray's conviction and sentence
grew out Of his financial failure near
ly eight months ago.
In August Of last year, McCray called
his creditors together informed
them he was no longer able to meet
his financial obligations and offered
to turn over to them his vast holdings
of land and livestock
Blamed Agricultural Depression.
He blamed his failure on the gener.
al agricultural depression which had
deprecated his properties.
Creditors of the governor. however
attributed his failure to speculations
on the Chicago Board Of Trade and
to purchase of land at peak prices
when he had no funds to back up his
speculations.
Request was made for a grand jury
investigation. McCray was indicted in
the Marion criminal court on charges
Of forgery, larceny, issuance OF tlIse
statements and embezzlement OF
$155,000 from the Indiana state Board
OF Agriculture.
He was subsequently indicted by
the federal grand jury on charges OF
fraudulent use of the mails and viola
ton OF the national banking laws.
A trial in criminal court on the EN-
bezzlement charges, resulted in q
hung jury. The second trial brought
conviction.

SLICK SLEMP TO
BE MOUTHPIECE
FOR SILENT CAL
Canny Confidence Man
Is Campaign Pilot


WASHINGTON April 3O.-C. Bas-
com Slemp's stock as probable chair
man of the Republican National Com
mittee and director in chief of the
Coolidge campaign went up several
points today. This followed Presi-
dent CooIidge's announcement that he
personally had taken charge, in rela-
ton to essential matters, of the party
machinery now being prepared for
the Cleveland convention and the en-
suing campaign.
This means that Slemp, the most
active and the closest of the presi-
dents political advisers, stands the
best chance of becoming the presi-
dents mouthpiece and campaign di-
rector general, replacing John T..
Adams after the Cleveland conven-
ton, or so it is construed by many
of the best informed republicans here.
A Practical Politician.
Slemp, whose appointment as presi
Dental secretary created great deal
of gossip, has proved his worth to
the administration in a political way
many times. He and President Coo
lidge were virtual strangers when
Slemp took up his duties. Since that
time, however, the suave ,skillful Vir-
ginian has impressed Mr.. Coolidge
deeply with his political acumen and
his ability to play the game of prac-
teal politics along the lines which
Mr.. Coolidge has learned.
Slemp right now is less a secretary
than political adviser and strategist.
William NJ. Butler, of course, is in
charge of the pre-convention cam
paign, because until the convention
has actually picked it's nominee, the
party organization, as such, cannot
appear committed to any one man.
But nothing now stands in the way of
Mr.. Coolidges immediate nomination;
hence the time has come when the
president can openly admit he has
assumed party leadership and intends
to exercise Il actively from now on.

HUNGARIAN IMMIGRANT
MAY Be DUPONT FIRM
TRAVELLING SALESMAN

NEW YORK, April 29.--WiIliam
J. Burns has not yet declared that
he has the 9eth positively correct
solution Of the Wall Street explo-
sion, but unless he is too busy dodg-
ing jail for his completely in the
Dauaherty-Smith criminal activities,
statement should be forthcoming.
A man described as a Hungarian i'm
migrant was arrested by the police,
on suspicion of having evil nten-
tions toward society. He was found
wandering rather aimIessIy near the
home of the late Charles Murphy of
Tammany Hall.
The police obIigingly found a
dynamite bomb in one pocket and
revolver in another and immedateIy
concluded that he was the Moscow
agent assigned to the task Of over
throwing the government on May
Day which is favorite day for revo-
lutions and furniture movers. There
is theory, however, that he might
be an agent Of the Dupont Powder
company who forgot to leave his
samples at home in his anxiety to
see the Charlie Murphy funeral.
Moscow 1t is stated in quarters
generally considered authentic has
more up-to-date methods of over
throwing governments than bombs,
which are out Of date, chief amona
which is the distribution Of germ
labelled TX. Y. c. SO" in the Moscow
laboratory. This deadly germ is
fatal only to the bourgeoisie and acts
with almost human intelligence. It
does not Unfortunately attack a
bourgeois but selects occasions such
as meetings Of the National Civic
Federations and other counter-revo-
tionary organizations. When Comp
ers was seized with dizziness at a
recent banquet it was feared that
Moscow got him" and it was also
rumored that this germ was respon-
sible for the fainting fit thrown by
Judge Gary some time ago while de-
livering an address.
Since then the germs have learned
lot and May Day may be selected
for trying them at mass meetings on
the enemies of the workingcIass.
New York chemists are working on
an anti-germ mask which the police
Will wear on the first of May If the
preventative is completed by them.

Kings resolution demands the

1t says in part:
THE Secretary of Commerce, with
out authority of law, has suspended
the fishery laws relating to Alaska,
and has granted exclusive fishery
rights to favor packing corporations.
and has denied to American citizens
the common right of fishery as estab-
lished by the law OF the land and re-
cognized by the courts of the United

The resolution goes on to declare
that the sense of the United States
senate is that all orders and regula-
tons granting exclusive fishing rights
to packing corporations or others in
Alaska waters should be Immediately
rescinded and abrogated.
A bill before demands the breaking
up of the monopoly.

 The failure of the Senate to author ize any exceptions from quota limita- tions. 4

 The Simmons amendment, adopted by the Senate late today, authorizes immigration authorities to give prefer ence to .farm-labor when any state cer- tifies a shortage exists in that neces- sity.
 Senator Simmons. democrat, North Carolina, who proposed the latter amendment, urged its adoption as a method of assisting farmers to recover from their present unfavorable economic situation. Their difficulties, he said, were measurably due to the high cost of manual labor they employed.
 Senator Reed, opposing the proposal, declared past records failed to show that agriculturalists admitted as such went in any considerable number to farming sections. M
