Had Margaret been less absorbed in
her own troubles she would have seen
Holly's sensitive color rise.
Holly saw her TO the door and
kissed her good-by. but Margaret was
still frozen. There was a sag to her
shoulders that had been absent now

was afraid to go home. Holly closed
the door and went in, shivering.
She and the dog were alone, She
got coat from the hall closet and
spread it over the two of them on

She pulled it closer to her and tucked
the coat in around it.
She was waiting for Warrington.
Now and then she looked at the

have been given until Saturday to
return a talking machine to Mrs.

"This is one of the most dis
graceful things in this city," Grim

MORE FUNDS FOR ROADS
Association Secretary Asks Aid Be
Given Highway Plan.


Preliminary report % the State
highway department for 1927 shows
more money must be provided for
early completion of a pavement sys-
tenn really worth the States re-
sources and adequate for its needs"
Ethan l.. Arnold, secretary of the
Indiana Good Roads Association,
declared today. Z
Indiana is capable OF building
500 or more miles of smooth pave
ment yearly instead of 200 or $780,"
asserted Arnold. "Road contractors
completed 218 miles this year. The
mileage may be even lower than
this in 1928, the report indicated.
If we proceed at the present rate,
the State highway and Federal aid
system of about 500 miles will not
be paved properly until 1945."

STEVE PAROLE
PLEA is FALSE,
IL SAYS GILLIOM
Dragon Wants to Conduct
Publicity Campaign on
E Appeal, Brief Claims.

Depicting the erstwhile monarch
of the Indiana Khan, D. G. Stephen
son as an animal commonly known
as a skunk, who is seeking to spray
everyone whose official acts operate
in restraint of his liberties, with the
swish of his malodorous spray of
accusations" Attorney General
Arthur L. Gilliom today filed in the
La Porte Superior Court motion
supported by briefs, to restrain
Stephenson from obtaining 90-day
parole. e4qs
The Khan head, now serving a life
term in the Indiana State Prison
for the murder of Madge Ober-
holtzer, has asked the court for the
period of liberty to aid his attorney,
Robert H. Moore, in preparing
briefs and evidence with which to
fight his appeal in Supreme Court.
Gilliom, in his brief today,
charged that the Khan heads plead
ing lis nothing but a scurrilous and
contemptuous statement Of a con-
victed and imprisoned murderer,
who is attacking every one who
might work in restraint of his
liberty.
Charges Publicity Campaign"
"These papers on their face show
that the plaintiff only seeks an or
der of this court that would afford
him as a convicted and imprisoned
murderer an opportunity, without
hindrance, to conduct publicity
campaign in the great court of pub
lie opinion by which he obviously
hopes improperly to influence the
decision of his criminal appeal, now
pending before the Supreme Court
of Indiana"
Contending that Stephenson filed
papers to secure the parole which
"are on their face false and are
calculated for wholly improper pur-
poseS," Gilliom says that the afr
dayit by Moore conveys a false
impression of facts" The, brief con-
tinues:
1.-THE truth is that Moore an Ste
phenson procured w. H. Smother, a
notary public at the State Prison, to
af1x his name and seal to an oath
to the bare signature of Stephen
son on a single sheet of paper, I'M

court by them.

LABOR LEADERS
Central Union Sends Plea
to President in Behalf
of Car Men.

Central Labor Union posted
letter Monday night to President
Coolidge, asking a pardon for James
M. Parker and Robert B. Arm
strong, organizers for the Amalga-
mated Association of Street. and
Electric Railway Employees of
America.
The men are serving ninety-day
Marion County jail sentences for
contempt of court for violating an
injunction issued by Judge Robert
c. Baltzell.
The letters to the President: "The
indianapolis Central Labor Union.
and organized labor in general in
indianapolis, appeal to you in be-
half of Mr.. James M. Parker and
Mr.. Robert B. Armstrong, organizers
OF the Amalgamated Association Of
Street and Electric Railway En-
ployeS Of America. They were sen.
fenced to ninety days in jail for
contempt of court growing out of
the organizing of the street car
men here on an order issued by
Judge Robert c. Baltzell, restrain
ing the men from even talking to
their men, which order these two
men violated and for which these
two men were put in Jail.
Suspicion Is Voiced
I'VE feel, dear Mr.. President, that
the conduct of the street railway
strike has aspects which were at
least suspicious.
"The fact that the president of
the union which was organized was
in the pay Of the street railway
company at'the time he was urging
violence has some significance, to
say the least. But more than that,
the treatment of these two men by
the local police was not such as to
encourage any great faith in law

"JuSt why they, among the thou

unlawfully to attach this single
sheet of paper containing the sig

was kept by the notary public and
prison officials because they did not
know what use Stephenson and his
attorney intended to make of it
until after they had read Moore's

Gilliom concludes by asking that
the appeals for ninety day parole be
