HOOVER LOSS
In INDIANA is
COUNTED Win
Unusual Strength Against
Heavy Odds Boosts
His Drive.
BY RAY TUCKER

WASHINGTON, May 10.-Herbert
Hoover'S showing against Senator
Watson in the Indiana primary was
declared here today to be so re-
markable that it would give impetus
to his presidential drive rather
than slow it up, as anticipated by
the hostile Hilles-Butler-DaweS
coalition.
While Watson's victory gives him
control of the thirty-three dele
gates for as long as his name re-
mains before the convention, his
failure to get larger majority than
about $4,000, is taken as a tribute
to Hoover's vote-getting ability.
Watson predicted a plurality Of
from 100000 to 175,000. Two years
ago he swept the primary by 10000.
From this standpoint, Hoover's run
was characterized as a moral VIC
tory" even by some unfriendly
politicians.
Hoover May Get Delegates
Detailed returns will be necessary
before it can be determined whether
Hoover eventually will get Hoosier
delegates. Though all thirty three
must vote for Watson, they can ex-
press personal preference as soon
as he drops out of the convention
race, and nobody expects him to
become real factor himself.
If Hoover has carried several dis
tricts he eventually may get eight
or ten delegates. In any event, they
cannot be traded in early maneuver-
ing of his opponents forces, and
this is so much Hoover gain.
Though a Hoover victory would
have clinched his nomination, his
position is SO strong now that this
latest demonstration of his popular
strength is counted on to keep his
forces moving forward.
Smashed Watson Barriers
Hoover smashed all but a few of
the barriers surrounding the Wat
son camp, in the opinion of most
observers. Watson had as allies a
veteran political organization, the
Anti-Saloon League, remnants of
the Ku-Klux Khan, big business, the
Farm Federation Bureau, and many
other elements. The latter included
factions working for Lowden,
Dawes and Curtis.
Hoover had little but his name,
his career and his overwhelming
lead in the presidential race. His
forces consisted of a hurriedly
created organization headed by po-
litical amateurs. He had to de-
pend on appeal to Unorganized pub
lie sentiment.
The fight was on Watson's own
battlefield where. as boy, man and
politician, he had become a popular
figure.

from Deans grasp and were cover
ing her face. Her body shook with
the emotion she had until now been
CALAMITY suppressing.
Deans arms went around her; he
drew her head to his shoulder, and
if there was touch of greedineSs in
his movements Virginia was not
aware of it.
IT can't understand it, Uncle
FREDERICK called Mr.. Dean
that on occasion-"what shall I do?"
That's what I've come to talk
to you about, my dear. Naturally
you will come to us. And perhaps,
when the estate is settled, there will
be more for you than we think"
at wouldn't mind losing the
money if father had lived" Virginia
said. "And I don't mind so much
for mySelf-but there's Mel"
She sat up now and looked at him
with deeply troubled eyes.
"You fear it will make difference
to him?" he asked in surprise. Such
an idea had not crossed his own
mind, though he welcomed it readily
enough.
Virginia smiled waniy at his mis-
Interpretation of her words.
"Niel regretted that he was 60
ing to marry a girl with money"
she explained hastily. HE wouldn't
have taken any of it for himself
but it would have made it possible
for him to devote himself to his
work without worrying about sup
porting a wife"
"Ah, / see; you're quite right to
think of him, Virginia. When man
knows he is neglecting to provide
properly for the woman he loves he
is sure to be distracted from his
work. Especially if he knows that
that very work is the cause of the
neglect"
Il think Mel wants me to marry
him right away. He hasn't said so
yet, but I'm sure he made up his
mind to do it when he heard Mr.
Gardiner say I must give up this
place"
"That would be-disaStrous, Dean
snapped. You mustn't think of it,
Virginia. You have said yourself
that it would be detrimental to his
career; besides, you cannot think of
marrying so soon after e. after
it wouldn't be respectful to your ia
theirs memory"
81 think father would wish it."
Virginia said softly, but I don't
want to begin my life with Mel I'M
der a shadow"
Then, will you come to us?"
ST must talk to Mel first, but
please don't think I am not CRATE
full to you and ClarisSa. 1t would
be so much harder to bear without
you two and Mel"
We'll, 1 hope you won't let him
cloud your judgment. I'm sure you
don't realize what a change has
come to you, Virginia. Poverty's a
rather terrible thing to one brought
up as you have been. 1t will require
some time for you to adjpst yourself
to it. Much better that you should
do it alone and not as hindrance
to young man who is still at the
foot of the ladder"
Il know you are right" Virginia
agreed miserably.
"Of course am, but you muslin
expect young man in love to agree
with me. Be careful, my dear, that
he doesn't confuse you and make
you forget to think of consequences"
I'll try to make him under
stand" Virginia promised.
Very soon afterward Mr.. Dean
planted fatherly kiss upon her
forehead and left her. In the lobby
of the building he met Nathaniel
and the two men exchanged brief,

for both of us. I'm sure you
haven't thought this out as I have.
No one but you, dear, would fail to
realize what a burden I would be
to yod if we were married imme-
diately."
mo, I haven't thought far enough
to reach such a crazy conclusion as
that" Mel told her, "but my think
ing doesn't have to be very pro-
found to convince me that you've
had help in making your wise de-
cision."
He spoke bitterly, and Virginia
stared at him in establishment.

CHAPTER III
"XTIRGINIA, wish you hadn't
consented tn see anv one inst

XTIRGINIA, I wish you hadn't
' consented to see any one just
now" Nathaniel protested when the
maid had gone to admit the caller.
''There is something I wanted to
talk to you about
"But, Mel, I couldn't send Mr..
Dean away"
mo, I suppose not. He's been a
great help" Nathaniel spoke a
trif1e acidly.
"He and Clasissa both, Mel. She's
been an angel, missing things to be
here with me-"
Nathaniel held his tongue in re-
ply to that. He happened to know
that ClariSsa Dean had kept some
of her engagements. One of them
was dance.
But so long as Virginia was hap
pier in the belief that Clarissa had
sacrificed her social pleasures alto
gether during her friends black
days, let her think so.
He did not feel so tolerant of the
girls father, however, for he did not
like Mr.. Dean. There was some
thing about the man, intangible, in
definable, that made Nathaniel
want to refuse to shake hands with
him.
He could not tell what it was that
caused him to distruSt the man, but
the distrust was there, and when
ever he saw Dean with Virginia, his
hand patting hers as was his GUS
tom, Nathaniel wanted to boot him.
1t was a crude instinct, he knew,
and as far as he could judge an I'M
grounded one, for certainly Fred
erick Dean appeared worthy to pat
Virginia's hand
And he had been one of her IA
theirs oldest friends, a man who be-
longed to the same clubs for which
the names Of both had been put up
at birth.
But still Nathaniel did not like
him, and when he appeared in the
doorway, wearing a sympathetic
smile, Nathaniel nodded CURLY,
murmured a vague greeting and
stood with his hands behind him.
Dean appeared to take no notice
of him beyond quick "howd'y'do."
Doubtless he did not regret that he
was not compelled to take his hand.
But whether or not Nathaniel was
to him important enough to shake
hands with, he seemed to find Vir-
ginia's hands fully satisfying.
For he was patting them as us
ual, and NathanieIs skin began to
creep as he watched. The man
needn't be so confoundedly paternal,
he thought. He couldn't stand much
of that, he decided, and took his
departure.
I'll come back in half an hour,
he said to Virginia, hoping Dean
would take the hint. You know
there is something 1 want to talk
about"
Virginia kissed him good-by, but
her fingers seemed to cling a little
to him as she let him go.
my DEAR" Dean began in sad
voice when she was again seated
beside him, IT would not have in
truded upon you at this moment had

diner says?" Virginia asked him,
her voice rising a little.
Richard gave me to understand
that matters were in a very bad
state-but, of course, I do not know
what Mr. Gardiner said"
'He said there was nothing left
that even the furniture in this
apartment must be sold" Sudden

SHOOK REMAINS
At ATLANTA
AS WARDEN

John Shook was still warden or
Atlanta prison today following
series of conferences with Maoel
| walker Willebrandt, assistant attor-
ney general in charge OF Federal
penal institutions.
Whether he remains warden de-
pends on Mrs. Willebrandt' as AT
torney General Sargent placed the
entire matter in her hands.
Friends of Shook declared that
there is no reason why the warden
should be dismissed and expressed
confidence in view of his cleanup
at Atlanta that he would remain.
Mrs. Willebrandt was continuing
the investigation of prison condi-
tions. 1t appeared that the situa-
ton at the prison has not so much
disturbed Mrs. Willebrandt as the
activities of the warden himself.
One charge against Shook is that
he gave too much publicity to the
case of Peter Hansen, said to be an
agent OF the Department of Justice,
who was committed to Atlanta for
the purpose of making an investi'
cation of the prison. Shook also
was alleged to have talked too
much" about prison affairs wh1ch
the Department of Justice regarded
as confidential.
After the last conference Shook
announced that he had been warned
to divulge nothing that took place.
He consequently was forced to re-
main silent except to express the
hope that he would be retained as
warden. and to say that he would

CHURCH ISS j {
FACES QUIZ
IN HOUSE

Congress may investigate the parti-
san appeals to religious bigotry in
the presidential campaign. The
House Campaign Funds Committee
convenes here Friday and probably
will be called upon to take cogni-
zance of recent developments in sew
eral Southern States.
The so-called church issue Is flam-
ing up at various points despite eff
forts of the Republican, National
Committee to smother it.. o. d.
Street, Republican National Commit
teeman from Alabama, is said to be
on the verge of an open break with
Dr. Hubert Work, committee chair
man, on the subject.
100000 Pamphlets
Street has circulated more than
10000 of an anti-Smith and anti
Catholic pamphlet in his State and
announces his purpose of continuing
his religious fight, despite disap-
prevail at Washington.
His defiance of the national COM
mittee will be made the subject of
a demand by Representative Loring
Black of New York, member OF the
House campaign funds investigat-
ing committee, that an immediate in
quiry into the Southern situation
be ordered. Representative Lehl
bach of New York, chairman of the
committee, Is noncommital, but may
favor such probe.
The Caldwell ''rum-ridden and
Romanism" issue in Virginia and
the street expenditure OF campaign
funds for the circulation of an anti
Catholic pamphlet will be the occa-
sion Of demand by Representative
Black that the religious phase of
the Republican campaign be probed.

that the South has been flooded with
documents attacking Governor Smith
on religious grounds. He says ''many
of them have been too vile and too
slanderous for publication in the
news columns of Southern dailies.'
At the office Of Representative
Lehlback today 1t was said that no

gone out. but that Informal word
