viewed today by Lew Wallace re-
ceiver for the parent concern. the

Wallace said that petitions for
receiverships had been fled in South
Bend, Vincennes, Elkhart and
Michigan City, Ind, and Dayton.
Cincinnati, and Youngstown, Ohio.
In every instance either Hawkins
or Anthony A. Schieb, former vice
president. gave their consent as of
ficers Of the societies to the suits.
They were not officers" WaIlsce
said.
Every effort to block these at
tempts will be made, Walls ce said.
The first step was fling petition ia
the Indiana Supreme Court for q
writ of prohibition in the South Bend
case. Final hearing has been set
for Feb. IL.
Hawkins at present is in jail at
Cincinnati in default Of $4,000 bond
on an appeal from an order of Fed.
