FUND TO
PROTECT RICH
INDIAN
jackson Barnett's Guardian
Asks for $4,000 to Fight
Wife's Suit

Elmer s. Bailey, who declares he
is acting as guardian ad Item
for Jackson Barnett, seventy-five-
year-oId Creek Indian, "a mental
incompetent" reputed to be the
wealthiest Indian in the world,
with fortune estimated at $1,000
600, who few days ago informed
the District Supreme Court that
he had been kidnapped and vamped
into marriage" has asked the
District Supreme Court to direct the
to him Bailey the sum Of 5000,
from a deposit Of $14,8107S belong
ing to the Indian. Bailey says he
needs the amount to adequately
represent and protect his clients
interests.
Bailey says that aside from the
funds in the Riggs National Bank
there are no other funds belonging
to Barrett or to his estate which
are available for the purposes OF
defraying the expenses.
Anna Laura Barnett, who says
she is the Indians wife, recently
filed suit against the Indian to es-
tablish her right to 100000 worth
of Liberty bonds in the Riggs Ma
tional Bank under an alleged trust
agreement which she claims had
been sponsored by Barnett. The
bonds, she declared, are part of a
gift of $550,00O from Barnett, who
states that she offered an attorney
at Coffeyville, Kan, a fee Of $780,
900 If he succeeded in getting the
$550,000 out of the estate, the origin
of which Is in the Oil and gas lands
belonging to the Creek Indian and
leased under Government super
vision.
Barnett alleges that his marriage
to Anna Laura Lowe, a widow
with a grown daughter, whom he
never saw before, followed a drive
through three States in an auto
mobile in a search for a minister
who was willing to marry them.
Mrs. Barnett claims that she is
the legal wife of the aged Indian
and that the money on deposit at
the Riggs National Bank in his
name since February /, 1928, has
earned approximately $4,000 in
interest.

Factory Employment In
Illinois Static; Mining and
Building Industry Gaining

BY international Labor News Service.
Chicago, Sept. 22-The general i'm
duslrial situation in Illinois during
the last 30 days has changed very
slightly. While a few Of the factories
have increased the number Of their
workers, a number have continued in
the downward course which has been
in progress for some time. One thou
sand one hundred and forty manufac-
turefs reported 10 the Illinois Depart
ment of Labor that they had on the
pay roll of the middle Of August 273,-
337 workers, which was a change Of
less than one-tenth of ! per cent the
identical employers had 30 days
earlier. While machinery concerns
have been adding TO the number Of
their workers. the iron and steel firms
have been laying off help, and the car
building industry is at a low point.
The outstanding instances of bet
terment in August were the mines.
A considerable number of them have
resumed operations in southern Hi
nois and steady work has been pro-
vided in not a few cases. Meanwhile,
building mechanics have been steadily

tinued prosperity is forecast for them
by the tremendous volume of building
authorized The labor market shows
evidence of improvement, with the
ratio of applicants to jobs dropping
from 1853 per 100 to l39 per 100. The
placement record also shows an i'm
proved condition during Augustine
combined offices of the State placing
1895 workers, and 3,49G more than
in August, 1924.
Employment in Chicago factories
increased slightly during August.
Reports to the Illinois Department of
Labor from 592 factories show that
during the 30-day period, from July
10 to August Is, the employment in
creased to eight-tenths of | per cent.
Operations expanded moderately
among machinery, electrical and pack
ing companies and was sustained at a
high level in the automobile plants.
The number of workers fell slightly
at the steel mills, however, and when
the end of the season came employ
ment was down in the clothing fac
tories.
Building permits taken out by the
end of the month of August amounted
to the huge sum of S31 900, 900
$2,5OO,O0O ahead of July and nearly
80 per cent larger than a year ago.
