bring lot of honor to her. And

indianapolis Mayor
On Trial for Graft
Admits Helping Khan

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 20. -
Mayor John l.. Duvall today contin-
ued to face a stinging barrage of
questions concerning his alleged po-
litical deals as prosecuting attorney.
William H. Remy cross-examined the
Indianapolis mayor, who late yester-
day finished his direct testimony on
charges of political corruption.
Duvall has tried to deny charges
that he promised William H. Armi-
tage, Indianapolis politician, three
city jobs for $14,500, the khan 85 per
cent of his appointments and numer-
GUS alleged offers to small-fry poll
ticians.
But Duvall was hazy in his reply
to questions concerning agreeing to
the Klan's political policy.
One of the mayors most signifi-
cant admissions was that he appoint
ed George S. Elliott, former exalted
cyclop of the Marion County khan,
to the position of superintendent of
banks and Harry W. Bedford, Klan
organizer, as traffic department head,
and that he indorsed notes of $1,000
each given by the two men, who
afterwards left the city.

Chicago Girls Finally
Freed for Sacco and
Vanzetti Activities

CHICAGO, Sept. 20 (FP).-Signs
of returning sanity appeared in Chi
cago's courtrooms as the first month
since the Sacco-Vanzetti executions
began drawing to a close. Judge Sam
Heller on Sept. 10 released the % re-
naming prisoners picked up by the
police during the meetings and pa
rades of protest prior to the double
murder by the state of Massachusetts.
Two days before, he had freed couple
of girls arrested for making street.
corner speeches.
II guess If Jane Addams can speak
her mind on the Sacco-Vanzetti case
without being arrested you can do
the same," Heller told the girls as he
bawled out the brave coppers that
had pulled them in.
The previous week four others were
fined, but payment was suspended.

SHENANDOAH, Pa, Sept. 20. -
The full quota of firemen will be

been done in the past, according to

citation board which met in Phila-
delphia last week.

Threaten to Withdraw Men.
Finally the case was taken before
the Anthracite Cancellation Board
which wavered in it's efforts to reach
a decision until the union officials
present declared that if the firemen
are to be laid off on idle days, the
union would withdraw all mainten-
ance men from colliery duty on every
idle day, thus imperilling the condi-
tion Of the mines, and letting the
boilers get cold. The officials pro-
tested very strongly against the en-
ployment of confidence men - office
clerks and time-keepers.
Evidently this warning had it's
proper effect, for on reconsideration
/ decision was handed down stating
hat hereafter the full quota of fire
nen are to be retained on every day
the colliery is idle.

9Aged Galleani, Friend
OF Sacco and Vanzetti,
Victim of Fascist Rage
(By Federated Press).

Luigi Galleani, close personal friend
and counselor of Nicola Sacco and
Bartolomeo Vanetti, has become a
virtual prisoner of the fascist or
ganization in Ravenna, Italy. Old,
penniless and physically broken, fol-
lowing his deportation from America
several years ago, the aged man has
long been under close observation by
the italian government. Recently he
was placed under guard in his own
home by the Ravenna blackshirts, and
is forbidden to leave it or to associate
with friends, according to reports
reaching New York friends of the an
archist leader.
In America GalIeani edited Cronaca
Sovversiva, a revolutionary anarchist
paper published in Lynn for several
years till his arrest in late 1918.
Sacco and Vanzetti, as subscribers and
active circulators of this periodical
were on the suspect list of the de-
partment of justice. After Galleani's
deportation in June 1919, the round
up of his followers began.
Galleani's age saved him from
sterner punishment by the Mussolini
government. Seized after a recent
anti-fascist outbreak at Ravenna it
was at first intended to deport him to
one Of the tiny Mediterranean islands
which the blackshirts use as jails for
the radicals.

Force Raise.
Seven thousand truckmen won o
similar raise the week before. So this
September shows a total of 5000
teamsters and chauffeurs, represent
ing families of nearly $4,000 persons,
who have lacked up their standard of
living by an extra five spot week.
Wages are now $45 for the men in
charge of the trucks, something less
for helpers.
New York's fruits and vegetables
come in by lighters from New Jersey
The strike was boon to Newark, Jer-
sey City and the other towns across
the river. Unable to sell the stuff in
New York the merchants dumped ap-
pies on the market for as little as
10 cents bushel: tomatoes for as low
as 25 cents crate; beans brought
only so cents a bushel. Melons went
for a song.
Bosses Appalled, BY Possible Loss
Facing a loss of millions of dollars
of grapes, apples, tomatoes, melons,
beans, berries, etc, the bosses became
eager to settle. Soon after the Fruit
and Produce Trades Assn. and the
Market Truckmen's Assn. met the
committee of local 202 of the team
sters' international, the $500 compro-
mise was agreed upon, the union seal
ing down its demands from the $500
originally asked.
The reason for the settlement is
frankly given in the front-page head
line of the Journal of Commerce
"Perishables Saved, as Truck Strike
Ends; Enormous Loss is Prevented

Japanese Delegate
Asks League to Aid
Sudden War on US,

I GENEVA, Sept. 20. - The oues-
tion of war betweenthe United
States and Japan, came up before
the League Council today, and the
japanese delegate, Harukazu Naga.
Okla, offered an amendment to the
Polish "peace" resolution which
would have allowed such war to take
PLACE without objection by the
League. However, when the full inn
port of the amendment offered by
japan to restrict the provision for ar
bitration before beginning the shoot
ing to League members only finally
reached the delegates, they became
Hurried. Agents of American finance
among the consultants of most of the
councilmen presents objected on the
grounds that the League seemed to
be banding around Japan to threaten
America. The japanese delegate was
quietly told that his amendment was
not to be passed, and he diplomatic
ally withdrew it.
Hungary Defies.
But the shadow of war, darkening
the incense to the sham Goddess Of
Peace which all the delegates are
industriously burning, left a consid-
cradle feeling of restraint and worry
upon the gathering.
Nerves were further strained by
the obstinate rejection by Hungary
of Sir Austen Chamberlain's report,
favorable to Roumania in the Hun
garian lands dispute. The spectacle
o>fa tiny enemy" country defying
the League and its "Triple Entente"
leadership reused some of the dele
gates to wrath. Hungary was sound
ly scolded, Chamberlain threatened to
resign from the investigation COM
mission, and the Council finally de-
cided that Roumania and Hungary
should try to agree, outside the
League Council.
Spain Sneers.
Another third rate power, Spain,
continues to jeer at the apparently
powerless League of Nations. Primo

Ideally stated yesterday that the
League assembly is "no better than

England Still Dopes.
GENEVA, Sept. 20. The assem-
bly, adopted a resolution demanding
that the governments of the various
countries speed up measures to con-
troll illicit traffic in narcotics.
The assembly also adopted the
the committees report dealing with
the diminution of poppy culture in
Persia. The Persian government last
week announced its willingness to
curtail poppy cultivation over three
year period, as an experiment.
Count Lytton, speaking on behalf
of India, urged efficacious interna-
tional action to put down and con-
troll the drug traffic. He did not
promise that the British plantations
in India would cease to legally" pro-
duce quantities of the poison.
