DUVALL QUIZZED ON DEALS

relations to get in on the street i'm
provements and that after he didn't
get the appointment he probably
would spend the same amount to
defeat me in the election. So / took
the money to keep him out Of the
election and divorce him from the
board of works and the street i'm
provements, which I belieye I did.
This answer, the first ex-
PLANTATION that has gotten into the
testimony of why Duvall accepted
the cash without objection and kept
it intact, was struck out on States
objections.
Thought Armitage Friendly
Q-You received it in friendly
way? Al received it with that
feeling that he wanted to go along
with the administration and be
friendly and I felt he wanted to
continue as he had in every other
administration and if he didn't he
would spend his money against me.
I had no intention of letting him
be part of my administration.
Duvall also explained that Elliott
and Beford had asked for the
money to pay certain insurance
bills in their business, which they
told him he testified, was about to
go into receivership.
He reasserted he did not know
the men were planning to leave In
dianapolis.
On re-cross-examination, Remy
asked Duvall: Don't you know
that when they got the cash they
divided into two rolls and left
town." The defense objection was
sustained.
Made No Promises
Q-Armitage gave you $4,000 and
you made no agreement and no
promise? A-That's right.
Duvall left the stand at 1918 a.
m. He had been called at 9:16 a.
m. yesterday.
Cecil o. Richardson, lieutenant in
the city fire department, followed
Duvall to the stand. He told of at
tending the meeting in the National
City Bank Bldg, in late December,
1924, or early January. 1925, when
Duvall was present. He said the
meeting was ''held in the Red Star
League Office, a different name for
Marion County Khan No. g."
He said Bedford announced that
man who was going to be candi-
date for mayor would be there to
speak to them, "but none of us
knew who it was until Duvall came
to the door,"

IMPROPER TO
DISCUSS CASE
SAYS ROBINSON
Asserts Comment Now
Might Be Construed as
Effort to Influence Court

Senator Arthur r. Robinson to-
day said 1t would be highly i'm
proper" for him to discuss for pub
lication the testimony he may be
called upon to give the State SUI
preme Court in the contempt case
of Superintendent Shumaker of the
Anti-Saloon League.
Attorney General Arthur L. Gil
liom has petitioned the court to in
crease the sentence of Shumaker,
alleging efforts by Shumaker Cor
ruptly to influences" the court be-
fore it passed sentence upon him.
Gilliom's motion is based partial
ly upon q letter from SIumaker to
Senator Watson and one from Wat
son to Shumaker in which Watson
said, among other things, that Rob-
inson had asked him to work in any
way consistent with Watsons views
on the courts to see that Shumaker
did not go to Jail.
Afraid of Influencing Court"
Robinson said that he felt that
any discussion of the issues at this
time might be construed as an effort
to influence the court. In his view
OF the proper procedure relative to
the States highest court, he said
this would be indicate and indeed
highly improper"
IT have received no notice from
the Supreme Court, but / assume
from the newspaper reports that ]
will be called as a Witness" said
Robinson. IT am perfectly willing
to testify to all that know in this
matter at the proper time, but not
to talk about it before that time"
Watson Will Be Witness
Senator Watson. likewise called
as a witness, has been quoted as
willing to testify concerning his let
ter; statements in which have been
fatty contradicted by Shumaker In
the last few days. Shumaker like
wise is expected to be a witness.
Robinson had been asked whether
he, Watson and Shumaker con-
ferred the next Sunday after the
writing of Watson's letter to Shu-
maker on Aug. 8, 1926, and whether
he arranged such a conference;
what he said to Senator Walton
over the telephone before Shumak-
er, at Robinson's request, talked to
Watson over the phone; what his
conversation with Watson in Wash
ington was, and what other discus
sion or Incidents occurred. If any
on the general subject Of Shumak-
er's sentence.

FLYING LURES YOUTH
Parents Think Boy Ran
Away to Be Airman.

The lure of the life of Lindbergh
drew Robert Price, IA, son of MIR.
and Mrs. E. B. Price, 1922 Terrace
Ave-, from his home, police be-
lieved today.
The boy disappeared Monday
morning and his parents believe he
may have struck out for an avia-
ton field at Chicago, with officials
of which he had had some cor
respondence.
His father told police he drove
his son in their auto to Technical
High School. About noon the father
found a school book left in the
rear of the car by the son. A note
told of the sons decision to leave.
The youth is a junior in school and
large for his age and in spite of
the fact that he frequently told
his parents he did not like school,
he always received high grades, the
father said.

GROOM WALSH
AS LEADER OF
M'ADOO RANKS
Montana Senator Is Boosted
Quietly to Rally Party
Dry Wing. M
BY PAUL r.. MALLON
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2O.-Sena-
tor Thomas j. Walsh of Montana,
is to be boosted by some Democratic
leaders quietly to see if he can rally
the prohibition wing OF the party
now that William G. McAdoo has
withdrawn.
Walsh is the man who, almost
singlehanded, developed the Teapot
Dome oil revelations, although he IS
nearly as widely known to radio
fans for his phrase For what pur-
pose does the gentleman rise?"
broadcast when he was presiding
officer at the last Democratic Ma
tional convention.
Catholic Against Catholic
Walsh is a strong dry and was an
ardent supporter of McAdoo in 1924.
He declined the vice presidential
nomination on the ticket with John
W. Davis that year.
His record in congress has been
progressive" and he would have the
sanction Of the Anti-Saloon League.
His name is being advanced by
some Of the McAdoo supporters here
in the belief that he would be an
ideal candidate against AL Smith.
Walsh, like Smith, is a Catholic. BY
pitting him against Smith, some of
the McAdoo supporters believe they
could quiet the charge that they are
seeking Smiths defeat on religious
grounds.
Walsh would conduct his cam
paign on anti-monopoly and farm
reforms, which are the two issues in
which many dry Democrats are most
interested.
Others Are GrOOmed
Those supporting Walsh are un-
willing that the anti-Smith strength
in the party should go to Senator
Reed (Dem., MOI, wet, who is
now considered strong candidate.
If they find that their movement
for Walsh does not bear fruit, they
may try one of half a dozen other
Democratic drys. Their idea is to
concentrate on one candidate to rep
resent their views.
The names of others being men
toned include Senator Joseph I.
Robinson, Arkansas; former Secre-
tary OF War Newton Baker, Gov
ernor Vic Donahey of Ohio, Rep
resentative Cordell Hull, Tennessee;
Evans Woollen, Indiana; Senator
Barclay, Kentucky, and E. T. Mere
dith, Iowa. There also is a strong
movement, especially from Southern
Democrats, to induce Smith to with
draw from the race.
