DEMOCRATS HEAR
STRONG PLEA FOR
ANTI-KLAN PLANK
Submitted at State Com
mittee Reorganization
Meeting by Jack Nolan,

Declaring the Klan the only issue
in Indiana, Jack Nolan Of Evans
vile, representing the National Coun-
ell of Catholic Men, submitted a pro-
posed plank in the Democratic State
platform opposing 'pernicious prac-
tices Of the Klan." before the State
committee reorganization meeting
today AT the CIaypoOl.
Activities Of the Klan in politics
overshadowed the entire meeting.
Prominent Democratic leaders
agreed that a definite stand should
be taken by the party. although
some doubted the wisdom of nam
ing the Klan in the platform. Re
turn of the party platform of 1856
on religious freedom was advanced
as the safest course.

offered another minority report pro
viding far a specific cooperative
marketing law and labor representa-
tion on boards and commissions per
tanning to labor affairs as substitute
for the majority's labor plank. This
also was lost by a heavy vote.
With preliminary speeches and
committee reports out of the way.
the convention settled down to Sc
rious work. The election Of fourteen
delegates-at-large with one.half vote
each to the national convention at
Cleveland was the first business to
be taken up following the adoption
Of committee reports.
Delegation Enlarged
The committee on rules voted to
change the number of delegates-a-
large to the national convention
from ten to fourteen. each with d
half-vote, and to eliminate alter
mates.
This increase is understood to
have been decided on to appease
the -Bossert faction.
Postmaster General Harry S. New
aroused the greatest outburst of
spontaneous cheering the convention
has seen when he declared. What
the country needs is a Republican
Government by Republicans who do
not believe themselves larger anc

He entered into a fervent defense
OF the Coolidge Administration and
said. "At no time III fifty years has
any President so enjoyed the con.
f:dence Of the people as does Calvin
Coolidge.
Sees Coolidge Victory
The people like man fixed in
purpose. firm in resolve. The coun-
try feels it is safe with Coolidge for
these reasons. There is no possible
uncertainty as to the outcome Of the
convention at Cleveland"
He severely criticized Republican
members in Congress who have
failed to back the President
IF there had been any failures.

western Senators who have refused
to support the Mellon tax plan.

The case of a man whose record
is almost spotless, but whose wife sus-
poets him of unfaithfulness because
of discriminating evidence, has come to
my attention. The man denies his
guilt, but has no way of proving his
innocence.
Should the wife Convict" him. on
the evidence, or dismiss the case"2
Balancing his record against the evil
dence, I think he should be found
mot guilty" Here's the case:
Strong Evidence
Dear Martha Lee: have been married
eleven years and have been happy until Just
now. I have a girl 10 years old and boy
nine months. My husband is good to in
every way. He gives me all his money He
gets Sunday dinners to give me a rest, as
we employ no servants He never forgets
me on any holiday or anniversary.
But l found womans picture in his coat
pocket. He denied all knowledge of it. say
ing some one at the office put it there,
either by mistake or for a joke. 1t does not
sound plausible to me.
Would you forget 1t, or leave him? Could
I get a divorce on these grounds? I want
to do the right thing by my children, as
my husband Just worships them, and they
ANXIOUS WIFE
You have every reason to believe
your husband. Why shouldn't his
explanation be true? Stranger things
than that happen in this world.
If 1 were you I would forget all
about this incident. A man who
treats his wife as yours does you
would not be likely to be unfaithful.

causing increased cerebral activity
The sudden withdrawal Of these
forces brought a blood loss to the
brain and fainting resulted.
Painting is also associated with in
ternal hemorrhage or. bowel bleeding
This kind Of fainting is always sudden
end frequently results in persons
falling from sitting posture to the
floor s ,..-.s
Another point is the ceasing Of
respiration in genuine fainting fits.
Artificial respiration will aid this
condition promptly, In ordinary cases
the resting Of the patient in a supine
position with the application of such
resteratives as gentle massage and
the cold head and facial baths will
suffice

Nurse Is Attraction

Dear Miss Lee: am an ex-seryice man.
Not long ago I went to a hospital in Indi-
annapolis for treatment MY nurse was a
blond She was not so very good-ooking,
but l have found I like her very much and
cannot dismiss her from my mind l think
she really Is the only girl I ever admired so
much. l do not try to be sheik or firt.
SO do you think I should write her a letter
and ask for a date? If she ignores me I
will just try to forget II. A G.
You probably can Judge, from the
way the nurse treated you. whether
she would welcome a letter from you.
If you think she would, there would
be no harm in writing, asking whether
YOU might call on her.

Town Talk

I'm rather sorry you are going to
Albany Although, like every other
two people who think they have been
able to keep their affairs from the
world. you must know that your af-
fair with Jack before his marriage to
Leslie was common talk among the
men about town, as we'll as among
the young society matrons whose hus-
bands had confded in them the more
or less true details.
All these old stories will be revived
All the old scandal will get a fresh
start. If Jack and Leslie go together
to see your picture when you make
your personal appearance, everybody
will say Jack is trying to bluff it out
If either Of them go alone the people
will say Jack was afraid to take Les
lie to see the picture. If neither of
them go near you, some one is sure to
hazard the opinion that Jack and Les
lie have quarreled over you and Meth
er dare go. You can under no cir
cumstances stop the gossip you have
started.
l shall be much interested to know
the outcome of it all. Above all else
I hope and pray nothing will be said
or done to hurt Jacks wife, Leslie
She has not only been sweet and kind
to your child Paula, but has been
perfectly innocent in the matter
