MISSING WITNESS SOUGHT
 IN MCPHERSON HEARINGS
Mrs. Wiseman Admits Having Sent Her 10 Year Old Son Away
 From City

Los Angeles. Oct. 27 tR-A state wide search was under way today for Robert Wiseman. 19 year old son of Mrs. Lorraine Wiseman- Sielaff, who is sought as a defense witness in connection with his mothers accu- sation that Aimee Semple McPher- son, Evangelist, manufactured evil dcnce to support an abduction story to explain her five weeks absence from Angelus Temple.
 Mrs. Wiseman denied knowledge of her sons whereabouts but admit ted having sent him away to prevent his appearance in court. It it under stood the Wiseman boy is wanted to testify as to his mothers movements during the time she said she was em- ployed by Mrs. McPherson to manu- facture evidence.
 Clashes between opposing coun- sel enlivened yesterdays session and at times obscured the trend of the testimony through which the defense was attempting to prove that Mrs. McPherson escaped from kidnappers in the northern Mexico desert and walked nearly 20 miles to the border town of Agua Prieta-
 Efforts to identify tracks in the desert as those of the Evangelist continued for the third day through testimony of o. A. Ash, constable of Douglas, Arizona, where Mrs Me Emerson appeared last June to tell of her abduction. Ash, who with others versed in desert craft, has given detailed accounts of finding a woman's tracks in the sand near Agua Prieta, declared that he also discovered horse hoof prints beside footprints identified as those of the Evangelist.
 Ash was unable to attach any significance to the tracks other than it appeared a horseman had trailed the woman to the international boundary and then turned back.

Declaring that the democratic party favors the repeal of the pro- hibition law. a more liberal inter pretation of the immigration law, state rights, and improvement in the Hartford county jail, Thomas II. McKone of Hartford urged a crowd of about 150 at Falcon hall last eve ming to vote the straight democratic ticket.
 He said the republican party fail ed to announce its stand on prohi bition and other important questions of the day. When they are ques- toned they won't commit them selves" he said.
 His talk, in part, follows:
 There is a general feeling of unconcern regarding the election. There are several important issues to be decided Hardly day passes that you working men do not dis cuss questions which are to be de cidcd in this election. This election Is as trant as any we have had in the 29 years.
 "Of course there Is no president to be elected, but we will elect offi- cers who will be under the next president. We look to Al Smith to be the Moses to lead the people ou. of the bushes as president. The senator who will be elected this time will be in for six years and will be in office with the man who will be the head of the country. We want man in there who is in sympathy with the president and who is willing to work with him.
