MICHIGAN CITY, Ind, Oct. 5.--The

death Of Madge oberholtzer, spoke

the breath Of life and made to tell It's
story Of the alleged manipulations
which II directed in HoosIer politics.

as result, the probe which is threat

Stephenson himself is still incom-

His revelations today dealt princi-

R. Robinson to fill the place made
vacant last year by the death Of SEN

According to Asher's statement,
Gov. Ed Jackson decided to appoint
himself to the vacancy and had gone
80 far as to communicate with Lieut.
Gov. Van Orman, advising him to
make preparations to move to In
dianapolis to take Jackson's place.
At this stage, according to Asher,
and before public announcement of
the plans had been made, Senator
James E. Watson communicated with
Jackson and other republican leaders
in Indiana and demanded that Frank
Ball, a millionaire Republican, of
Muncie, Ind, be named to Ralston's
place.
Stephenson's Man.
Senator. Watson's selection, Asher

ROME, Oct. Sit is learned that
Italy is considering joining with Great
Britain In military Intervention in
China to crush the national liberation
movement. While officials are reti-
cent and will neither affirm or deny
the report, 1t is looked upon as a re-
suit of the conversation recently held
Between Mussolini and Sir Austen
Chamberlain, British foreign minister.
Other Nations Concerned.
The new alliance between Britain
and italy has alarmed other nations
who have declined to aid Great Brit
ain in China, having rival interests of
their own and are in no hurry to burn
heir fingers to protect British in
terests. France also is threatened by
the alliance in European and African
affairs.
Plans for Intervention by Italy and
England jointly have gone so far that
foreign diplomats in Rome have re-
ported the matter to their govern
ments.

Chao how he presumed to speak for
China as a whole when the Picking
government which sent him to the
league controlled only a small part
of China.
Chao has replied with a scorching
letter, practically stating that when
he speaks Of Chinese desire to GUST
foreign domination of China's af-
fairs, he speaks for all China. While
China has inW 'nal political differ
ences, he said, all Chinese are united
