INDIANA PROBE
 HEARINGS CLOSE Committee Will Convene MOn-
 day at Kansas City

Indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 23 Rs- Having almost concluded its invesu- gation of charges of Ku Klux klan control of politics in Indiana, the senate campaign funds committee stood in adjournment today until next Monday when it will reconvene at Kansas City.
 Senator James A. Reed, democrat, Missouri, the chairman who has been carrying on the inquiry at Chicago and here by himself, because other members of the committee could not be present, hopes to wind up his work Monday or Tuesday and devote the remainder of the week to poli- tical campaigning in his home state.
 Only three witnesses have been called thus far for the Kansas City meeting. They are Mrs. Vivian Tracy Wheatcraft, a woman republican leader; Joseph Meyers, formerly of Indianapolis, but now of Princeton, Mo-, and Frederick J. Libby of New York.
 Testimony before the committee has been that Mrs. Wheatcraft form ed a women's organization in Indiana to support the candidacy of Senator Watson in the primary campaign early this year and she is to be ques- toned about that.
 A. Clyde Walb, chairman of the Indiana republican state committee, has testified that Meyers was the head of an organization which dis seminated league of nations and world court propaganda in this state but witnesses who appeared here yes terday declared that he had little funds so far as they knew and no office force while he was in Indian apolis.
 During his visit here yesterday, Senator Reed heard a denial from Senator Watson, republican, Indiana, that he had any agreement or under standing with the ku Klux Klan off cials for their political support and testimony from Senator Robinson of this state that he had made no "deal' with the Klan.
 W. Lee Smith, who succeeded to the grand dragonship of the Klan in this state after Walter r. Bossert had been deposed by Dr. Hiram w. Evans, imperial wizard. told Senator Reed that he was supporting no one United States senator from Indiana. He said he had sent out letter telling which candidates in the pres ent campaign were Favorable" and

ENGINEERING IS
 LAUDED IN TALK
Speaker Says This Education Is
 Most Beneficial

Worcester, Mass, Oct. 23 R}- That engineering colleges prove a most effective form of education for poor and mediocre students. but fail to distinguish sufficiently between the really gifted man and the super plugger, and that their methods do not arouse and develop the initia- tive of the ablest men and make them ready for a lifetime Of self directed education, were charges brought by w. E. Wickenden, direc- tor of investigation of the society for the promotion of engineering education, at the fall meeting of the New England section of that organ ization in session today at the Wor- cester Polytechnic institute.
 The method now generally adopted, he said, "borrowed from industrial management, which puts the work load into the form of sequence of small dimensioned planned tasks, tends to limit the students sense of responsibility to the execution of details and to turn engineering education into an ela- borate and efficient scheme of sec ondary education"
 MT. Wickenden offered four sug- gestions for improvement of condi- tions, organization of laboratory squads on a vertical plane in place of the present horizontal plan, in creased value of examinations, crea- ton of tutorial division of instruc ton in which all students would be required to do part of the work of the last two years and creation of an honors course for highly selected students.

Park City Girl Says
 She Was Attacked

Bridgeport, Conn.,, Oct. 23-Mar- garet Bruzinski, IA, an employe of the D. M. Read company. today gave detectives a description of a man who she says late yesterday after noon grabbed her on a stairway in the store, put his hand over her mouth to keep her quiet and then hit her with something on the shoul- der which caused a stinging sensa- ton.
 She did not report the incident to the police until after she had gone home after work when upon exam ming her shoulder she saw that it showed evidence of having been slightly scratched.
 It was not a perforated wound such as has been made by the phantom stabber" in his series of attacks upon young girls during the past year but was more In the na- ture of pin scratch. The girl said that the man was about five feet eight inches in height, apparently a foreigner and in need of shave.

No Great Differences
 In Ages of Officers

Washington, Oct. 23 Pl-The pie ture of the white-haired aged gen. eral and the dapper young captain is all wrong, if army statistics are to be believed.
 Out of the total commissioned personnel of 11,G37 an official table prepared by the adjutant general showed, one major general is only 46 years old, another is 47, and one brigadier is 4G, while the ages in the ranks of captain range from one of 63 down to one at 2S.
 The oldest officers on the active list are two colonels and one lieu tenant colonel, all of whom will reach the retiring age of 64 before December 30.

BARNEY RAPP HERE

Barney Rapp and his original twelve piece Victor Recording Or chestra, who have entertained thou sands of dance lovers in the various bathrooms throughout New England as well as other thousands of the phonograph audiences will make his initial appearance of the season in this city in the New Britain State Armory on Tuesday evening, Octo- Der 26, under the auspices of the local Headquarters company.
 Barney Rapp and his team of en- tertainers are New England's most popular favorites in the dance field today. It boasts one of the finest aggregation of musicians that has ever toured New England and it differs widely from the common run Of dance orchestras in that it not only can be depended upon to furnish the latest dance numbers of the day but carries with 1t that dis tinctive rhythmic swing to it's tempo that is thoroughly enjoyed by the wide and varied audiences that nightly throng to hear it.

WOMAN IN COURT
 FOR EVADING TAX
Admits Policeman Told Her Payment Was Due

Frances Stankewicz, aged 25, a divorcee. Of Park Drive, wept in po- lice court this morning when ar raigned on the charge of failure to pay her personal tax. She was the only woman brought in on the charge, and she said there is no mail delivery in her neighborhood, so she had not received any notice from the tax collector. Officer Feeney met her on the street a short time ago and told her she should pay the tax or she would be arrested, as her name had been giv- en to the police. Although she promised to pay at once, according to Officer Feeney, she did not do so.
 She admitted that she had notice from Officer Feeney but she was in hurry to catch a trolley car and she did not have S2 with her at that moment. She told her story in a firm voice, but when she resumed her seat in the court room she could not restrain her feelings and wept openly. Judge filling asked her if she had the money with her now and she replied affirmatively. He ordered her to pay the tax to the clerk of the court.
 Fails to Appear nj Court
 Michael Ailesky did not appear in court on similar charge and Judge filling ordered him arrested and placed under s10 bond. Judment was suspened in the case of Mat thew Margosian of 103 Grove street, who said his health has been poor for the past two years and he Is un- able to meet his obligations. He was advised to apply to the mayor and aldermen for exemption. The case of Stephen sybulik of 40 Grove street, similarly charged, was nolled, and judgment was suspended in the case of Joseph Wodicki of 73 Grove stree, who saidt he Is 61 years of age and had been told by the tax collector that persons over 60 years of age are not obliged to pay per. sonal taxes. He said he was born in 1865. His wife is AS years of age and he paid her tax.
 Tax Collector Loomis said his records show Wodicka to be AS years old and he did not recall ever having told him he would not be liable for the tax. It is customary to make notation on the office rec ors in such cases and Wodicka's s card calls for payment.
 Park on R. R. Property
 Railroad Policeman F. Howard Smith testified against several al- legged trespassers on railroad prop erty. John Matulis of 424 Church street said he left his automobile near the passenger station a few minutes while he was ascertaining the time of the last train for Newark. N. J.
