PUG DOG HAS
PASSED OUT AS
POPULAR PET
Canine Dealers Do Not Have
Any Calls for Any Such
Animal

Say. you old-umers, do you re-
member the fashioned, fat,
wheezy. useless pug dog of two dec
AIDES ago? He is fading from the
pictures. He is on his way to join
the red plush family album. the
coach and four. the spasmodic, jerky.

rabbits and dogs which used to mud

and chaperones.
In a few years he viii be as ex-
tinct as the great aux and the Prince
Albert coat, so dog fanciers say.
Out of Fashion
Why has he gone? None can
answer exactly other than to say he
is out Of fashion. The day was
when no we'll regulated home was
complete with it's overfed, pampered,
petted pug. The social class of
family was graded according to
sickness, rotundity and high
pedigree Of its pug.
Then came a change. The pug, so
animal dealers say, passed out Of
fashion. The demand for elbows,
Pekinese, Prince Charles, fox ter
riers and lately for police dogs grew
to enormous proportins, and every
day the pug fel int social disrepute

were he to get an order for one he
said he would Mt knw where turn.
An Easy Job
''It would be much easier to find
duck billed platypus or a woody
rhinoceros," he declared.
And so the pug is rapidly APP
preaching extinction. Not being a
natural breed of dog, but a cross,
when the demand fell off, production
fell off accordingly and today one Of
the leading dog dealers IN Indian
apols did not even know what
brands Of CANNES went into the
makeup Of the fast disappearing
pug.

HENRY EXPECTED
TO TAKE STAND
IN MURDER CASE
Druggist Says He Believes
Slayer of Policeman
Was Insane.

By Times Special
SHELBYVILLE, Ind, June s.
Defense attorneys in the case of the
State against Charles Edward
Henry, charged with the fatal shoot
ing of Jesse LOuden, Indianapolis
policeman, indicated today that they
would not rest their case until late
this afternoon, following the lengthy
examination of Pauline Prim, the
girl with whom the State alleges
Henry was with on the night of the
shooting.
Henry will take the stand this aft
ernoon.
Girl on Stand
Flat denial that she had ever been
with Henry at any time was made
by the Prim girl. She said she knew
the defendant. She admitted giving
a statement to the police following
the shooting, but said the police had
changed it. She further stated that
on the night OF June 10 she was with
her grandmother in St. Louis.
Fred Langfritz, Indianapolis drug
gist, testified he believed that Henry
was Of unsOund mind.
Witness Gives AIibf
Mrs. Amelia Works said that on
the night of the shooting Henry was
at his home taking care of his grand
father, who was violently insane.
Further rebuttal testimony that
Henry was insane at the time his al
legged confession was made to detec-
tives, was also introduced.
Attorneys for Henry expect. to
show that he has been of unsound
mind since he was gassed in France.

Studies Not Blamed

DR.. Thayer stated the intensive
studies both youths had made in alb
normal psychology, especially in
translating works of medieval writ
ers on perversion, had not influenced
them to any extent in committing
the murder.
THE writings may have stimu-
lated them somewhat, but no amount
of reading would have caused them

planned.
About two per cent Of our popula-

who are constitutional psychopaths,
Thayer said.
DR.. ThaYer is the originator Of the
so-called "Napanoch Plan" of treat
ing criminals, which was officially
recognized by the State Of New York
three years ago. He now has 420
criminals Of defective mentality I'M
der his care. Thayer's plan calls
for the judging and classifying Of
criminals. not by the nature of their
crimes. but by the mental and ply
steal conditions which prompted
them to commit the crimes.

Board Refuses Action

The moves started when Lingen-
feIter asked the board to rescind ac-
ton on paving Illinois St. from For
ty-sixth to Fifty.Second st. with con-
crete. The board has refused to take
any action on this.
Mayor Shank said he believed con
crete was impractical on most
streets because it was hard TO repair
and did not prove satisfactory in Ger
tain kinds Of streets.
The streets where concrete was
omitted in paving resolutions Mon
day were:
St Clair St between Tecumseh
and Keystone AYES.
Orange st. between Shelby and
Spruce SITS.
Shriver Ave. between Twenty

Thayer believes criminals should
be kept in prison until they have re-
sponded to special training that will
fit them for better lives when freed.

he applied himself and made an in

trade that he couldrbe kept il prison

LAFOLLETTE TO

WHEAT GROWERS
Sponsors Farm Relief LegiS-
Iation to Win Votes of.
Western States.

Bg United Press
NEW YORK, June 3.-Senator La
Toilette, whose activities in the
forthcoming presidential campaign
may determine who is to be the next
President. will concentrate his cam
paign primarily upon fifteen wheat
States.
He has tipped his hand this much
in his resolution introduced in the
Senate Monday and designed to
bring Congress back into session to
pass farm relief legislation July Z.
In so doing, according to his sup
porters here, La Toilette will have
been given credit for attempting the
move if he fails and the Republic
ans and Democrats will share the
blame. If he succeeds, he will be
given the credit for having accom-
pIshed the relief.
Grain Growers Favored
In the resolution, it will be noted,
he concentrates on the farmers dis
tress in fifteen wheat-growing States.
where, he. shows from Agriculture
Department records. 100000 farmers
or 26 per cent of all farmers in
these States-either have lost their
farms through failures since 1920,
lost their property without legal pro-
ceedings. or are existing merely on
the sufferance of creditors.
He cites official records to show.
for example, that 40 per cent OF the
South Dakota farmers are bankrupt,
~ per cent Of those in Colorado. so
per cent in North Dakota. 81 per
cent in Wyoming and 50 per cent
in Montana.
To Be in Platform
Aid then for the farmer. combined
with railroad legislation to assist in
this aid. would appear TO be the fore
most plank in the program of prin-
ciples which La Toilette will lay
down at the meeting of progressives
in Cleveland July f, on which indie
pendents may run under his banner
in all States.
His drive in the wheat belt will
be personal and persistent, his
friends say. and, figuring on the pro
test vote that he will receive in ad-
dition to his own enthusiastic fol
lowing. they contend that he can and

MOVES TO OMIT
'CONCRETEROUSE
PAVING DEALERS
Asphalt Interests Charged
With Attempt to Obtain
Monopoly,

Asphalt interests are charged by
concrete dealers with backing moves
at city hall In which concrete was
omitted as one of four paving ma
terials in specifications for street
paving submitted to the board Of
works by Frank c. Lingenfelter, city
engineer.
In six specifications Lingenfelter
substituted wood block paving in,
place Of concrete. Other materials
specified were asphalt, asphaltic con
crete and brick.
Il am within my rights in speCi-
flying any four materials for street
paving I want to- Lingenfelter said
today. The concrete interests are
trying 20 force me and they object to
my using force myself"
To Confer With Mayor
Ldngenfelter did not give any rea-
son for emitting concrete, but said
he would have a statement after con-
fering with Mayor Shank. Concrete
is about IS cents a square yard
cheaper than asphalt.
The law requires that bids be ad-
vertised for four materials, and the
board selects the type after bids are
received. on recommendation Of the
city engineer.
LIngenfelter denied that the
moves were started by asphalt COM
panies, who hoped to eliminate con
crete and boost the price of their
product in a monopoly. He pointed
out that he could reject any bids for
asphalt If they were too high.
Lingenfelter's resolutions emitting
concrete encountered immediate OPP
position in the board of works. DR.

By United Press
WARRINGTON, June 3.-The Re
publican platform of 1924 is the
rock Oh which President Coolidge
and Republican leaders in Congress
are finally going to split.
The seeming accord which has
been preserved between the White
House and the Capitol, despite rude
jars oe the bonus, tax bill, immigra-

definitely scheduled to dissolve on
this question.

An Argument

Coolidge managers insist upon
the Presidents virtually writing
his own platform. Senate Repub-
leans, a score of whom are up for
reelection, believe that if he is per
mitted to dictate it, he alone can
stand on 1t.

They want the platform to be a
tent big enough to cover them as

which will bring into bold relief the
differences which exist between
Congress and the White House.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1924-06-03
Name Platform

The. President, however, virtually
will name the platform committee in
suring planks representing his
views. Such stalwarts as Watson
and Lodge, who have been platform
moulders in the past, will have little
voice in the proceedings. Lodge may
not even be member.

BIG SWITCH OF VOTES
More Than 100000 Voters
Split Ballot in November
Election.

More than 100000 voters split
their ballots in the November cleo
tion, official returns of all but
nine counties tabulated in the sec
rotary of states office indicate. It
was the biggest switching Of votes
ever seen in Wisconsin.
The Democrat candidate for
governor ran unusually strong.
j u d ge Martin Lueck received
about 100000 votes. On the other
hand John w. Davis, Democratic
candidate for president, will have
but about $4,000 votes when the
count is complete, the figure based
on the present returns.
With nine counties still missing,
LaFollette has 317,816 votes; Coo
lidge, 223,762 votes. Gov. John J.
Blaine drew about 100000 votes.
1t is claimed that many Of the
votes that went for Lueck, the
Democrat, were also cast for Cool
idge.
The Democratic vote on the ma
tional ticket was the smallest ever
cast in presidential race in Wis
consin. 1t is less than half of
the vote for Cox in 1922 when
he polled 1892 votes. In 1916
Wilson polled total of 1902 in
the state.
Official returns from all but
nine counties show a growth in
the |. w. w. movement in the
state. A total of 1884 votes were
cast for the Workers party candi-
dates with some of the strongest
l. w. w. counties still to hear
from.
E. L. Phillip, former governor,
will probably lead in the vote for
Coolidge electors. His total vote
on incomplete returns was 223, 1852.
Miss iona Gale, LaFollette elector,
polled 317,762 and Catherine Tuft
Conway, Davis elector, was high
with 1926.
