In addition to the printed silks for

Lowden Denies Deal
By United Press

BJ ORtt6d Press
WASHINGTON, May 14.-Frank
o. Lowden of Illinois, denied to the
Senate investigating committee to-
day that he had any agreement to
trade delegates with Vice President
Charles G. Dawes, but pointed out
that they were close friends and
that they represented the same
views on agriculture.
Pounding the committee table,
Lowden said he entered the cam
paign because he believed it was
up to the Republican party to re-
establish the alliance between
agriculture and industry.
To further his campaign along
those lines, he said, his Chicago
headquarters had received $64, ZOO
and spent about 100000.
His testimony brought the known
expenses Of thirteen candidates in
terrogated to date to $440,184.
Natural Outcome Seen
"I want to ask" said Senator
Dale (Rep), Vermont, eff this talk
Of a trade between you and the Vice
President comes about naturally be-
cause you hold the same views re-
garding agriculture"
"Of course, that has something to
do with it," Lowden replied.
Lowden said he knew of no ar
rangement to pay expenses Of dele
gates. He said he was sure moth
ing of the kind had been done.
II am indebted to you for a very
pleasant visit to Washington" Low
den said as he left the stand.
The committee then adjourned
until 2:S0, when 1t will hear Senator
Watson of Indiana.
Lowden has accumulated a dele
gate strength to date estimated in
United Press reports at 202. These
delegates come particularly from
mid-western States, Illinois, Iowa.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-05-14

Minnesota and Missouri, and Ar
kansas.
Figures gathered by the commit
tee on the expenses Of each Of the
candidates to date give little more
than a general indication OF the
financial end Of the battle for dele
gates. Testimony thus far has re-
vealed the following known expen-
ditures:
RepubIicans-Hoover, $241 ,274, I'm
cluding all the associated Hoover
clubs except that in northern Cali
fornia; Curtis of Kansas, $11,468;
Borah of Idaho, nothing: Norris of
Nebraska, Sc; Goff of West Virginia,
approximately $50.
Democratic Governor Al Smith,
$4,000, (not including local State
expenditures, except those made
from money furnished by the
Smith New York headquarters)
Reed of Missouri, $31,196; George
of Georgia, approximately $l56;
Cordell Hull of Tennessee, approx
imately $1,000; Walsh Of Montana,
(retired), $1,190; Hitchcock Of Ne
braska, $1,744.
Campaign Expenses Low
There is little safety in COM
parison of the figures, however, be-
cause only a few of the statements
even purport to represent all that
will be spent in behalf Of any single
candidate.
Enough has been learned, how
ever, to assure the committee that
this is the least expensive pre-
convention campaign in recent
years. Less than 100000 thus far
is reported to have been spent by
twelve of the candidates.
In a similarly close campaign in
1920, Gen. Leonard Wood spent
$1,700,000 and Lowden, $414,000.
After Lowden and Watson have
been heard, the committee intends
to call witnesses to give expenditures
which have not been included by
the candidates in the lists they and
their managers submitted.
George B. Lockwood, former
Muncie man, associated with the
Hoover campaign, will be the Iirst
Of these to be heard, probably this
afternoon.

Expert YeggS Still Free
With $4,000 Loot From
PettiS Store.

Police today were without clews
in their hunt for three expert crack
men who blew a large safe in the
Pettis Dry Goods Company, 1888
E. Washington ST., early Sunday
and looted the strong box of nearly
$4,000.
The yeggs overpowered and bound
the day watchman at the store and
knocked a combination from a sec
ond safe, which they left without
opening.
The daring and the skill Of the
yeggs showed that they were expert
criminals, Detective Chief Jerry
Kinney and Police Claude NJ. Wor-
ley declared.
Open Third-FIOOr Window
They entered the store by climb
ing a fire escape from Pearl St.. in
the rear, and opening a third-f1oor
window, the lock on which, accord
ing to police, had been broken for
some time.
William S. Cope, 81, Of 1042 N.
Pershing Ave, day watchman went
on duty at Sis a. m. A few min
utes later as he started for the rear
of the building the yeggs leaped
from behind the silk counter with
drawn revolvers and overpowered
him.
Leading him to the office on the
fifth floor, they had cuffed him to
a water pipe.
Leave No Prints
Their hands covered with gloves
so that no fingerprints we're left be-
hind, the yeggs knocked the COM
bination off the safe with a sledge
hammer, opened an inner door
which was unlocked and poured
nitro-glycerine into an inner strong
box which contained the money.
Cope said he heard them drive
away in an automobile from Pearl
st. Cope made two futile attempts
to toss alarm notes out window,
He was found when American Dis

DAVE Lewis,
RACE DRIVER,
is GUN VICTIM
Famed Speedway Star Is
Found in Cabin, Bullet
Through Head.
PROBE MURDER THEORY
Auto Pilot Due Here This
Week; Scene of Death
Near Los Angeles.
PROBE MURDER THEORY

Dave Lewis, 43, veteran auto
mobile race driver, and wen known
for his feats on the Indianapolis
Speedway, where he appeared in
the 500-mile classic annually since
1916, is dead at Los Angeles.
Authorities there are investigating
the theory of possible murderer,
according to a United Press dis
patch today.
Lewis was found shot to death in
his cabin in San Francisquito can
yon. First reports made by deputy
sheriffS were that Lewis had
started brush fire and it got be-
yond his control. Surrounded by
flames in the cabinet clearing, he
had committed suicide to keep from
burning to death, they said it ap-
peared.
Relatives, however, refused to
accept this theory. Tom Gardner,
nephew, told authorities that Lewis
never had a gun on his ranch. This
led to investigation of the murder
theory.
Due Here Soon
Lewis had expected to leave this
week for Indianapolis, where he
was to drive a new car in the
Decoration day event.
Although not listed among the
drivers, Speedway authorities de-
clared that it likely that Lewis
would have driven one of the new
Miller Specials.
Harry Miller, Los Angeles, maker
of the famous racing cars bearing
his name, is married to a sister of
Lewis. In 1925 Lewis finished sec
ond in the race here in the first
front drive car ever piloted on the
track, built by Miller especially for
the race.
Beaten by De PaOlO
His time average was 10092 miles
an hour. Pete De Paolo was first
that year with an average of 10113,
the fastest time ever made for the
entire 500 miles.
In 1920 Lewis drove one of the
Indianapolis-made Duesen burg
straight eights. He was affiliated
as driver with the company at vari-
Gus times and close personal
friend of Fred DueSenburg.
One bullet had been fired through
Lewis head. His mountain cabin:
was four miles above the wrecked
st. Francis dam.
Revolver Near Hand
A revolver, containing one dis
charged cartridge, rested on the bed
within reach of Lewis hand.
The widow, Mrs. Laura Lewis, and
Tom Gardner both made light Of
the suicide theory. They pointed
out that a man who had faced
death on the racing track as Lewis
had, was not likely to become panic
stricken over a minor brush fire.
Gardner believed the fire might
have been started by persons who
had murdered Lewis in a robbery
attempt.

The Tribune reports, which
have aroused the committee S
interest, say that such a deal
was entered into, and that since
Watson s victory in the Indiana
primaries over Herbert Hoover
last Tuesday, Indianapolis
headquarters have abandoned
all rretense of supporting Wat
son and are boosting Dawes.
It further was said that Fairbanks,
as an Evanston neighbor of Dawes,
long has been interested in his pres
idental aspirations. The report said
that Shaffer, although not an orig
inal party to the agreement, had
acquvesced in it and that the Indi-
annapolis Star, Terre Haute Star and
Muncie Star, his Indiana papers,
had supported Watson in the re-
cent primary with that end in viet.
1t was recalled here that Watson
went out of his way to assure his
Indiana supporters in the recent
primary that he was candidate in
his own right and not stalking
horse, and that once he was done
with Indiana's delegates, they could
go where they wish.
He therefore is expected to deny
the assertion of an agreement.

NEW YORK, May 14.-Peter
Jones, wealthy British steel
manufacturer arrived on the
Cunard liner Samaria today,
determined to rid the United
States of back seat" drivers.
His crusade will carry him as
far west as Detroit and he
plans to visit Cleveland, Buff
falo and Chicago with a de-
vice which will turn an auto
mobile into a pullman car.
Jones explained that back
seat drivers try to dictate to
the persons at the wheel be-
cause they can see traffic
ahead. His first step was to
cut off the view and make the
interior of the car so comfort
able that any one in the back
seat would forget about the
danger of collisions.
