Ten Cent Gar Told He
Can Lose Wife in Mich.

DETROIT, Sept. 12.-S. S. Kresge,
multi-millionaire five and ten cent
store man, can obtain divorce in
Michigan courts even if the New York
state supreme court issues an iniunc-
ton against such a decree, Judge De-
witt H. Merriman, president in the
circuit court asserted today.
Attorneys for Doris Mercer Kres-
ge, the multi-millionaire's second
wife, are reported to be ready to seek
an injunction in New York, restrain
ing Kresge from obtaining a decree
here.
"If Kresge can make the proper
showing concerning residence, can es-
tablish grounds for divorce and can
show that his papers are properly
drawn, no Wayne county Judge would
have any alternative but to grant him
a divorce" Merriman said
"a New York restraining order
would not affect the case here at
ALL" he added.

Police Attempt to Shock
Young Hill is Failure

STREATOR, ILL.,, Sept. 12.-Harry
Hill stood beside the shallow grave in
which the slain body of his mother
had been found, in the basement of
the Hill home here today and denied
knowing anything of her murder.
Only candle light flickered in the
basement as authorities, surrounded
and questioned young Hill, whom they
had rushed by automobile 200 miles
across country from La Crosse, Wis,
in order to elude habeas corpus pro-
ceedings said to have been planned in
Chicago.
The youth accused of matricide was
shown several articles as he stood by
the basement grave; the clay-spatter-
ed shoes, said to be the same size as
those Hill wears; shovel which had
been used in turning the earth; and
handkerchief found shortly after
the murder and turned over to the
states attorney.

MAYOR DUvALL ON
TRIAL FOR CRAFT;
SAY TOOK $4,000
Grand Jury Still Digs
Into Indiana Muck

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept 70. -
Close on the heels of the indictment
of Governor Ed Jackson, the trial Of
Mayor John L. Duvall of Indianapolis
was to begin today as the latest pyro-
technics, in Indiana's sensational
fireworks exhibition.
! Duvall, who was indicted with
Jackson and others, by the Marion
County grand jury was being tried
on previous affidavits returned by
special prosecutors charging political
corruption.
Took the $4,000.
The specific allegation against Du-
vail is that he accepted $4,000 from
William H. Armitage, Indianapolis
politician, and promised him that he
would allow him to select two mem
bers of the board of public works, a
majority, and the city engineer.
had this arrangement been carried
out, Armitage would have been in
control of expenditure of millions of
dollars for street pavings.
This bargain, according to the affi-
davit, was not mentioned in the cam
paign report submitted by Duvall,
and such omission was in violation of
the corrupt practices law.
Duvall's trial but exposes another
link in the gilded chain of corruption
and graft which has bound Indiana
politics for a generation. Political
corruption seems, however, during the
regime of the K. X. X. and the Nc
Cray, Jackson, Stephenson clique to
have reached its fullest form.
The prosecution of jackson and
Duvall is greatly facilitated by the
fact that former Grand Dragon
Stephenson's political allies failed to
save him when he was arrested for
raping and numbering a girl. In re-
venge Stephenson has made known
the whereabouts of a large number OF
discriminating documents, kept sec
reted until a few months ago IN &
now famous "black box"
The "black box" contents were be-
fore the grand jury when it brot, .
few days ago, indictments for graft
against jackson, two of his political
2 partners not holding office, and fur

Wreckage Indicates
Fishing Vessel Crew
Died in Great Storm

LUNENBERG, N. S., Sept. r.
Wreckage believed to be that of the
fishing schooner Clayton Walters,
which sailed from here for the Grand
Banks nearly two months ago with
a crew of twenty and has not been
heard from since, has been found on
the northeast bar of Sable Island, a
wireless message from that place re-
vealed today.
The wreckage included dory, sew
eral barrels of flour and other equip
ment. There was no mark of identifi-
cation, but it is believed to have been
from the Clayton Walters.
The schooner is believed to have
foundered in the~terrific gale which
claimed many lives off the Grand
Banks two weeks ago.

A. f. L. Council Makes
Gesture Against Mellon

CONTINUED from Page One)
executive council showed that miners
and their families have been evicted
from their homes by the coal cor
porations and that thousands of coal
and iron police had been deputized to
terrorize the striking miners and their
families. These coal and iron police,
while deputized by the state and
county authorities, are paid by the
steel companies and coal corporations.
"The American Federation of La
Dor is deeply interested in this situa-
ton and the executive council gave it
special consideration. 1t is the pur-
pose of the American Federation of
Labor to consider ways and means by
which we can render assistance to
the United Mine Workers of America
in its efforts to protect its member
ship in their homes and to preserve
their constitutional and economic
rights.
Because of the attitude Of the po-
litical powers which control the situa-
ton in Pennsylvania the executive
council will consider the formulation
of plans by which it can arouse the
workers of Pennsylvania to use their
political power in behalf of their
friends and in opposition to their

courts as a coercive agreement.
Gain New Members.
Flush with the strength of 5000
new members won this last year-a
% per cent gain-the convention
delegates were confident they could
clean up most of the non-union CEN
tiers in the coming II months. Highly
paid craftsmen in America, they have
much at stake in the strengthening
of their union.
The campaign into the south is a
hopeful venture of the Federation. In
the last 5 years about S per cent of
the hosiery machines crossed the
Mason and Dixon line in search of
cheap labor. Very cheap, too. Or
ganizer Alfred Hoffman reports the
Dixie knitters draw down about 40
per cent of the wages paid Phila-
delphia or New England mechanic.
In the northern fields the union is
taking on a number of new activities
this year. 1t is not only fighting the
boss when he fights first, but when
the boss signs on the line the union
boosts his goods. The union-made
hosiery boosting campaign will take
considerable effort and funds this
fall and winter, says secretary-treas-
urer William Smith.1
Encourage Sport.
Sports are another phase Of union
activity that is developing. The big
Philadelphia branch for years has rur
two bowling alleys and number Of
pool tables in the game room of its
big headquarters. Now comes the
New Jersey-New York district with g
fast baseball league, that has wor
young knitters away from the com.
pany teams. This winter there will
be a hosiery league basket ball anC
bowling in the same district and the
girls will be enlisted through dances
and pageants.
Recruiting of girl helpers has gone
ahead rapidly this last year. Th'
union is no longer composed largel!
of knitters but has as many othel
workers in accessory occupations.
The most important of all problem
before the union this coming year
in the opinion of officers, is tn
working out of national scale o
piece work prices to equalize manu-
featuring costs. This will be unde
general direction of Gustav GeigeS
president, who will work with com
mittees from different branches.
Officers elected by the Federation
which is an autonomous group in tn
United Textile Workers union, are
