WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-Repre-
sentative Ralph e. Updike, Indian
apolis will have an announcement on
the Indianapolis postmastership
within a month, he intimated today.
The term of Robert Bryson expires

Just how much have you to dc

ruled that the income tax must be
paid, he said. but protests and new
evidence sent from Indianapolis
caused the ruling to be changed.
Asked if he intended to introduce
any bills in the new session begin
ming Dec. 10, he replied:
"TOO Many Laws"
II think we have too many laws
now, which was my stand in the
campaign, and 1 certainly intend tc
introduce none except pension bills.
He said that his office here, which
has been open since March 4, has
secured favorable rulings on about
$50 claims of service men Of all wars
taken up with departments. About
$50 cases ofthis kind have been filed,
he said.

DUVALL HIDING
FROM KU-KLUx,
FRIENDS THINK.
Mystery Surrounding His
Whereabouts TightenS-
Fears Demands, Dope.

Mayor elect John L. Duvall has
been in hiding from the Ku-Klux
Khan since he left Indianapolis cleo
ton night, friends and relatives at
Pekin and Mackinaw. ILL.,, where he
spent part of the time since then,
believe.
But Duvall has not been in PelSin
or Mackinaw since last Thursday,
when he left for hunting trip,
they said today.
Mrs. Duvall, here in indianapolis,
said she had heard from him only
once since he left.
At the home Of his sister, Mrs.
f. c. Smith, 1116 Il. Fourth St.,
Pekin, it was said that he didn't
want to come in contact with men,
bers of certain secret and hooded
order"
Fears Demands
I'm sure my brother has no in
tention of talking to any members
of that order until he returns to
Indianapolis, she said. 81 feel he
fears any connection with them be-
cause Of their demands"
This morning, however, Mr..
Smith, said he hadn't heard from
Duvai and thought he was in In
dianapolis.
When Duvall was told Klansmen
were seeking him in Pel1in, he inn
mediately left. He is reported to
have told a friend Of his in Pekin,
that he was getting out OF their
reach" and begged his friend 10
give them wrong directions.
"Tell them I've gone to Iowa" he
said.
More Changes Seen
Additional changes of mind by Du-
vail, were deemed likely by poll
ticians.
An early victim of the ak. they
say, will be Heydon w. Buchanan,
named to the board Of safety. Blu
chanan is understood to have been
backed by the Khan and to be con-
sequently opposed by George V. COT
fin. Republican city chairman.
George Il. Elliott, Khan exalted
cyclops, is considering refusal OF
his appointment as parks superin-
tendent, according to the dopesters.
There are those who say Patrol
man Edward Schubert will be traffic
inspector, to succeed Claude Worley.
backed by Coffin, who it is believed,
will not accept appointment.

Aspirations Of Ku-Klux Khan
leaders to elect two United
States Senators were discussed
at a conference Of Republican
and Democratic leaders during
the weekend.
The gathering, an accidental one,
was attended by Mayor Shank, Will
liam e. Clauer, Democratic city
Chairman; Joseph L. Hogue, city con-
troller and William II. Armitage,
Shank's political general.
Possibility of the Khan backing
"Judgie" Charles j. Orbison, for
mer Democratic federal prohibition
director, and l.. Ert Slack, who has
been a legal representative OF the
Khan, for the Democratic nomina-
lions was discussed and the prevail
ing opinion was that the Khan, first
rebuffed by Governor Jackson in
State affairs and later by mayor
elect John L. Duvall in city jobs, will
turn TO the Democratic party.
Democrats Mentioned
There are number of prominent
Irregular" Democrats mentioned for
the senatorial honors, including
State Senator Joseph M. Cravens,
Madison; Dan Sims, attorney, La
fayette; Frederick Van Mugs, In
dianapolis, law partner of the late
Samuel M. Ralston; Evans Woollen,
Indianapolis, Fletcher Savings and
Trust Company president.
81 Many Democrats contend the most
logical candidates to oppose the
threatened Khan invasion of the
senatorial field is Walter Myers, de-
feated Democratic candidate for
mayor. Myers and family now are
in Cuba for a short time.
The Khan invasion is not salts

COMMONS PASSES
/ IRISH MEASURE
Baldwin Asserts, in Debate,
Boundary Agreement Holds
Promise for Future.

by tne ASsOtldltu ltsS'
LONDON. December 10.-The House
of Commons Tuesday night unani-
mouslv passed the Irish bill giving
effect to the new Irish boundary
agreement in all stages, without di-
vision.
There was little debate. After the
prime minister, Stanley Baldwin, eX-
planned the financial undertakings of
the agreement, ]. H. Thomas, for the
LaboriteS, and II. A. l.. Fisher, for
the Liberals. Endorsed the premier
sentiments, while David d. Reid, in
behalf of Ulster, expressed the convic-
ton that the differences between the
north and south had been eXagger-
ated.
In moving the second reading of the
bill Mr.. Baldwin justified the govern
ment's yielding of article ., which
made the Free State responsible for
part payment of the British national
debt, on the ground that it was to
England'S interest to have a prosper
Gus Ireland to buy her manufactures
and to prevent Impoverished Irish
emigrants from swelling the lists Of
England'S unemployed.
Under article five. England had
claimed an annuity of 6 5000, 900 for
so years. He was convinced. however
that it would have been impossible
TO arrive at an acceptable agreement
on this point. The compensation for
material damage. which the Free
State promised to pay under the pres
ent agreement, would probably cost
the Free State 6 100000 plus in
terest. This they had offered to liqui-
date by the immediate payment of
{ 10000 and an annuity of C 100000
for so years. This offer the British
government accepted.
In conclusion, the premier empha-
sized that this was the first time in
history that Irishmen had agreed on

All Weights Sell Irregular.

Following on the heels of Tues
days fall in the hog market pork
ers again took a drop today and
were Csc below Tuesdays close. The
decline in the market was unex-
pected and according to reports was
due to readjustment of values by
local packing houses who took the
position that the prices were out OF
line with other markets.
All weights were irregular,
heavies were quoted at s1S.75;
mediums were selling at $4,000
1856; lights at $3.50; light lights at

were transacted at s13.60@13.65.
Smooth packing sows were quoted
az s1S@13.25 and roughs at $3.50
ola. Stays hid steady selling at
$SQ11. Hog receipts were estimated
at $500; 5000 hogs were expected
Thursday.
A heavy run on the cattle market
slowed prices and steers were
bringing $1,000 down. The receipts
were quoted at 1900. Cows and
heifers brought s7.25G1o. Only a
small amount Of the receipts could
be termed choice grade stock.
Choice and good stock was mos tly
IN demand.
A better demand in the calf mar
ket moved prices soc higher in some
cases with the majority of the mar
ket holding steady. The top price
ranged from s13.50914. The bulk
OF the receipts sold with a spread of

naming the same. Lamb top was
