Reeds committee uncovered the
use of millions of dollars and
other scandal in the Pennsylvania
and Illinois primaries this sum-
mer.
The subpoena for Peters appear
ance was served upon him this morn
ing. He said he would go to Chicago
tonight so as to be ready to testify
Wednesday morning.
II will be very glad to tell Senator
Reed and his committee of all the
activities of the Indiana state Dem
ocratic committee" Peters said.
Chairman Walb said he was served
at 10 a. m. today at Republican State
headquarters in the Severin.
VIII Tell "Alr'
"I will tell Senator Reed every
thing 1 know" said Walb.
Asked if he would take any docu.
ments with him before the commit.
tee. Walb replied:
"The subpoena did not call for any
documents and l do not have any,
SO Will NOT Take any.
Walb said he would leave at mid
night tonight for Chicago and be be-
fore the committee early Wednes-
day morning.
Told that Democratic Chairman
Peters also had been subpoenaed.
Walb said:
"I will make the trip with Earl
if it Is agreeable with him. He has
a banker on his ticket and might
have some money. I'm sure we do
not have any"
Others to Go
In addition to Walb and Peters,
several present and former Ku-kluX
Klan leaders will be subpoenaed, 1t
was expected.
1t was stated in Chicago that the
committee would question Walb and
Peters there and that then the in
vestigation probably would be moved
to Indianapolis. The committee is
expected to make it's headquarters in
the Federal Bldg. here.
Walb's Charges
Walbs charges upon which
Senator Reed will open the in
vestigation were contained in a
letter to Senator William f. Borah
sent Oct. - after Borah had asked
Thomas H. Adams. Vincennes, Ind,
Republican editor for data upon the
Adams charges of corruption in
State politics.
The Walb letter:
Dear Senator Borah:
your name is being mentioned by
the Indiana press in connection with
the Indiana political affairs.
"As chairman of the Republican
State committee I issued state
ment this morning and am enclos
ing herewith a copy which earnest
ly request that you read carefully.
Secretary Of Labor Davis took
breakfast with me this morning and
we reviewed the Indiana situation
completely and we are absolutely
convinced that the whole situation
in Indiana hinges around Senator
Watson and Senator Robinson oppos.
ing the League of Nations and in
sisting that the foreign debt be paid.
"There is existent everywhere
that international bankers on Wall
Street have their money in every
precinct Of this State in the hands
of the fal1irs who pretend to have
something up their sleeves and are
putting on a probe, and at every
hand we see the activity of this
outfit attempting TO defeat our
Senators and Congressman on ac-
count of their stand in the United
States Senate and Congress OH the
League Of Nations and the pay
ment of the foreign debt.
This is the political story of In
diana"
Whether Reed will call Secretary
Davis upon Walb's statement that

Another coup to locate L. G. Jul
ian, the former business partner Of
D. c. Stephenson, who is thought 10
hold the key to some of the missing
Stephenson documents, failed at
Spurgeon, Ind, a little mining town
in Pike County, today.
Julian has been sought for two
weeks.
Meanwhile it was learned that
Miss Mildred Meade, %. 1923 E. Six
teenth St. former friend Of Ste
phnson. had withdrawn most of the
Stephenson documents from her
safety deposit box in the Indiana Ma
tional Bank Sept. 20. This safety de-
post box was taken before the
grand jury by Miss Meade Monday.
The coup at Spurgeon was planned
by Prosecutor William II. Remy.
conducting the Marion County grand
jury investigation into Stephenson
ism" in Indiana politics.
Acts ON Tip
Acting on a tip that Julian had
been seen in Spurgeon Monday
night, Remy rushed Deputy Prose-
cutors John L. Niblack and William
II. Sheaffer to Spurgeon. With the
sheriff Of Pike County and Earl
Klinck, former lieutenant Of Stephen
son, who is cooperating with the
prosecutor, the deputies converged
upon the home of Lawrence Julian.
brother of l.. G.. Julian, at Spurgeon.
Julian was not there. His brother
and aged father, Rufus Julian, in
two weeks. Rufus Julian exhibited
a postcard from the missing man
mailed from Chicago, Sunday.
What went on in the grand jury
room while Miss Meade was there
has not been made public.
Girl Silent
Miss Meade refuses to discuss her
visit to the safety deposit box on
Sept. 90. This was four days before
Thomas H Adams, Republican edi-
tor who is crusading against "Steph.
ensonism," made public the first of
the famous messages which Stephen
son smuggled out Of Indiana State
prison. The Times is printing photo
graphs of one of these messages.
The day the girl visited the box
was about one week after Adams
had received the first of the mes
sages from Stephenson.
Adams and his forces started a
search for the Stephenson documents
early in his crusade and gained the
support of some of Stephenson S
lieutenants, including Court Asher
of Muncie.
Searchers Thwarted
At one time it was thought that
the documents were about to be 10.
Gated through Miss Meade. Thomas
Miller, Muncie attorney, had been
to Michigan City and had obtained
a paper from Stephenson, said to
have been a pass to some of the docu.
ments.
The girl met Mille,' and several
others at the Boulevard Monon sta

VIENNA, February 3.-rhe errone-
BUS report that Premier Bratianu OF
1sumania had had u stroke seems to
have arisen from assertions by his
opponents that this would be q good
way for him to disappear from public
life. Other authentic reports predict
n change in government i'll Ruman1a
in the near future. The union of the
Nationalists and AGrarians gives the
Opposition n ms jority which would be
Increased by elections. II is expected
the change will come without violent
Upheayal. Many think it will mark
the overthrow Of the Bratianu
brothers.
Many new men Will appear to direct

Nationalist party OF old kumania.

states he is still very fond Of Carol,
but Will not be too friendly while he
remains with that other woman"

chance for the Opposition TO gain
