EFFORT TO Dust
,BROOKHART
IS G. 0. P, Plan
Republicans of Iowa Re-
pudiate Solon; Frame
Request That Seat Be
Declared Vacant

DIES MONIES, Ia, Jan. a.
The republican party of Iowa,
through the state central COM
mittee, today officially repudi-
ated United States Senator
Smith w. Brookhart and moved
to have the seat to which he was
elected as a republican candi-
date, last November. be deciar-
ed vacant on grounds of alleged
fraud and deceit.
A resolution adopted by the cent al
committee which met here today di-
rected the chairman, B. B. Burnqu.st,
of Fort Dodpe, to prepare bill Of com
plant for filing with the senate, charg
ing that Senator Brookhart. prior to
the November election posed as 4 re-
publican until it was too late for the
committee to bring out another can
didate, then aligned himself with the La
Toilette movement, denounced the re-
publican national ticket and divorced
himself from the republican party,
thereby deceiving the electors of Iowa.
The acts of Smith W. Brookhart," "
saws the resolution, in summing up the
charges of the committee, "are contrary
TO honesty and political morality, and
to permit such acts to stand unchal-
lenged, would be to put premium on
trickery and deceit and to permit an un-
scrupulous person to become elected 10
q public office by the use thereof.
The contest of Senator Brookharts
election will not be on behalf OF Daniel
f. Steck, his democratic opponent. who
was defeated according to the official
canvass, by only 755 votes out Of q to-
tai ballot of nearly 100000 but the
committee will ask the senate to refuse
to seat Senator Brookhart IN the new
session and declare his office vacant.
The governor then would appoint new
senator to serve until the next general
election. Contest of the election al
ready has been filed by Steck, who also
alleges fraud and irregularities.
The lengthy resolution adopted by the
committee points out that In the regu-
lar manner the republican party OF Iowa
participated in the nomination OF Presl-
dent Coolidge and Charles u. Dawes;
that the nationa. candidates and the
nlatform of the party were entitled TO
tho sunport of all lesser candidates,
that the senator announced himself as
republican in the primary and con-
tinued to present himself as candi
date until the time for filing independ'
candidates. had expired ana until 1t was
no longer possible for his name to be
removed from the republican ticket.

DEBT QUESTION
UP AS FRENCH
ENVOY ARRIVES
Daeschner's Arrival in
New York Brings Up
Speculation as to Next
Move by France

WASHINGTON. d. c.. Jan. 24.-Ar-
rival in New York today of Emile
Daeschner, the new French ambassador,
served to arouse speculation here as to
what developments. with relation to
ths complicated question of war debts.
may be expected to follow assumption
of his post in Washington.
Surface indications that the new am
bassador has any definite project with
regard to the French debt to put for
ward at this time, are lacking
The last phase of the debt situation,
to b. handled through official chan
nels, was the informal conversation be-
tween NJ. Clementel, French minister Of
finance. and Ambassador Herrick in
Paris, precipitating lively discussions
which are still re-echoing in parlia-
mentary debates here and in Paris. Ex-
animation of NJ. Clementel's memoran-
DUN by Secretary Mellon, as head of tn Z
American debt funding commission, has
resulted in an exchange between the
department and Ambassador Herrick
on the strength of which the Ambassa-
dor has informed the French finance
minister that his governments has be en-
unable to find anything Of sufficiently
definite character in the memorandum
to warrant it's consideration by the
debt funding commission.
Without question, administration Of
ficials would welcome any definite sug,
gestion from France with regard TO {
debt settlement plan. In view Of re
cent remarks in the French chamber OF
deputies, however, and the reply r.ade
by Senator Borah. in the senate, it is
doubted here that NJ. Daeschner has
been entrusted with a concrete pro
posaI 1t is assumed, however he will
be expected by his government to fam
iliarize himself with the American
viewpoint without delay.
1t is to be recalled that NJ. DaeschneI
had an opportunity to talk in Paris
with Ambassador Kellogg, who is to
succeed Secretary Hughes on March
fourth. He also will have an opportun-
ity to discuss informally with Secre
tary Mellon and other members of the
debt funding commission every aspect
of the French debt problem duriE. the
round of customary diplomatic social
engagements that will mark his entry
into the Washington diplomatic corps.
1t is regarded as unlikely that N
Daeschner will attempt to open any &C.
tual negotiations prior to the changes
that are to occur March fourth.

MRS. C. H. HURD
CALLED BY DEATH
Death Early Today Ends
Long Illness Of Mrs.
Abbie Crane Hurd.
LONG A RESIDENT HERE

Death ended long illness early
this morning when Mrs. Abbie Crane
Hurd, aged 70 years, wife of G. H.
Hurd, well known Kenosha druggist,
died at the Milwaukee sanatarium at
Wauwatosa, where she had been a
patient for several weeks. Mrs. Hurd
was taken i'll more than two years ago
at the home at 1853 West Park place
from a general breakdown; more re-
Gently her condition had become so
critical that she was taken to the
Milwaukee sanatarium.
On Sunday she had been in as good
health as shi had known for several
weeks. She had written her daily LETT
ter to her husband in which she had
commented on feeling improved in
health and hopes. During the night
she was taken with an attack of
apoplexy, from which she could not
rally, dying short time later.
- Lived Here Many Years.
Mrs. Hurd had been a resident of
Kenosha for more than forty years
and has a large circle of friends here
to whom the news of her death will
come as personal sorrow.
She was born June IA, 1854, in Ft.
Atkinson, the daughter of the late Mr..
and Mrs. Thomas Crane, pioneer resi-
dents of tina. city. She lived her early
life there, being educated in the
schools of that community. In 1873
she was united in marriage to G. H.
Hurd and shortly after that they
moved to Waukesha, where Mr.. Hurd
was engaged in the drug business.
Forty-one years ago they came to
Kenosha, since which time they have
resided in this city, living much of
this time at 1853 West Park place,
their present home. She was secre-
tary of the Hurd Drug company.
Leader In Church Work.
Mrs. Hurd was a member of the
First Congregational church of Keno
sha and for many years had been
leader in the work of the women of
that church. Her failing health had
made it impossible for her to take
part in the work of the church dur
ing the past few years. She was also
member of the Kenosha Woman's
club and of the Octagon club, the lat
ter social club which existed in Keno
sha for more than thirty-fve years.
Surviving her are her husband, G.
H. Hurd, Kenosha; two daughters,
Mrs. C. A. Forster, Cleveland, Ohio,
and Mrs Ruth Harrod, Los Angeles,
California, and one son, R. C. Hurd,
also of Los Angeles.
The remains will be brought to the
Hansen funeral home in Kenosha this
afternoon. Announcement regarding
the funeral services will be made later.
