Declares Indiana's
Industry EquaLized

Indiana is more equalized in her
industry than any other State,
have visited in the United States"
said George Papastamatakis, Greek
lawyer and newspaper represent
alive of Athens, Greece, who was
in indianapolis today visiting city
and State officials.
I'm most of America more atten-
ton is paid to manufacturing and
not enough to agriculture. 1 find
this different in Indiana"
Papastamatakis, who is making an
economical survey of the United
States for Greek newspapers, said
that he found America ahead Of all
the European countries in industry
and economical conditions. He also
stated that the League of Nations
will never give justice to the small
nations until the United States, the
international peacemaker, enters it.
Papastamatakis is the only for
eign news representative, he said, to
have had the distinction of being
photographed with Henry Ford.

SENATE REPEATS
WARNING TO KEEP
SMITH AT HOME
Deneen Sent to Illinois for
Purpose of Saying
Stay Away

DN HfttH lffoN
WASHINGTON. Dec. 24.-Emis-
saries of the Senate. it became
known today, have again been sent
to Illinois to persuade Frank l..
Smith. Republican Senator-designate
to delay presentation of his creden-
tails to the Senate.
Senator Charles S. Deneen Rep),
Illinois, left for Chicago today to add
his word to the message already sent
Smith by Republican leaders since
his appointment by Governor Small
to fill the term vacated by the death
of Senator Mckinley. The messages
hitherto have been to the effect that
Smith would not obtain complete,
fair consideration OF his case now.
because Of pressure on other bust
ness.
A Republican leader who will vote
to seat Smith declared today he did
not know of another vote in the
Senate to welcome the Illinois Sena-
tor designate. Senator Reed, Repub-
lican, Pennsylvania, and Senator
Watson, Republican. Indiana, both
will oppose him, and they comprise
the backbone of the Republican lead
ership of the Senate.
Senators now are vastly interested
in the Smith case, particularly in
determining whether a Senator can
be expelled upon presentation OF his
credentials and whether expulsion
can be authorized after a Senator
is seated. Because Republicans have
raised the question of colored dis
Establishment in the South, Demo.
Gratis are anxious to determine If
their southern representation can be
challenged in a similar manner, and
because of the possibility that one
vote may decide control of the next
Senate after March 4. both sides
have concentrated their plans upon
the Smith case.

Theories of Cause
Railroad men said that when the
change of engineers was made orders
were explained and both Pierce and
his fireman said they understood
them. The orders included the pass
ing of the Royal Palm at the Rock
mart siding. But, railroad men be-
lieve, either Pierce misunderstood
the orders or he and his fireman
failed to recognize the siding.
The Royal Palm pulled up 10 await
the Ponce de Leon, as It approached
the switch, and was not moving as
track. Some passengers estimated
the speed at forty-five miles per hour.
A freight train occupied Il portion Of
the siding and it was not until the
Ponce de Leon was close upon the
Royal Palm that the driver could see
that the track ahead was not clear.
The brakes were applied. The
