new NATIONAL
c. 0. P. LEADER
CIaudius H. Huston Chosen
Chairman of Committee
to Succeed Work.
BY RAYOND CLAPPER
limited Press staff CorreSpondent

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The
Republican national committee to-
day elected as it's new chairman
CIaudius H. Huston Of Tennessee.
This action was taken in accord
ance with wishes of President Hoo
yer following the recent resignation
of DR.. Hubert Work of Colorado,
chairman of the national commit
tee through the Hoover presiden-
tial campaign.
Huston became President Hoo
ver's new political pilot charged
with the responsibility of preparing
for the next national campaign.
The meeting of the Republican
national committee today was called
by DR.. Work to accept his res1gna-
ton and elect a successor.
Work makes way for an agrees
sive organizer, expected to inaugu-
rate a new and more highly efficient
regime in Republican party affairs.
Work joins the growing ranks OF
former Hoover political lieutenants
who have severed their close con-
nections, such as Mrs. Mabel Walker
Willebrandt and William J. Dono-
van.
No Break in Friendship
However, there has been no break
in their personal friendship. Work
was the first of the Coolidge cabinet
to declare for Hoover and the Presi-
dent rewarded him with the national
Craftsmanship and held Work in thai
post in face of widespread demands
for his resignation.
Hustons advent Is regarded by
many as foreshadoWing a more
Hooversque regime in national party
politics. He is g, successful ana
wealthy business man OF the type
Hoover has drawn around him IN
large numbers since March 4.
Huston has a reputation for po-
litical achievement. He is credited
with a large share in carrying
Tennessee for Harding in 1920. he
served as assistant secretary of conf
merce under Hoover and in 1924 and,
| again last year, raised large SuIllo III
the Republican campaign.
Adopted New Yorker
Huston has interests in Tennessee
but in late years he has acquired SO
many in New York he is now almost
an adopted son of Park avenue.
He is one of the newer type OF
'white collar" politicians and, it is
expected he will undertake to put
the Republican party in the south
on a more dignif1ed basis as recently
urged by Hoover.
Exercising the prerogative OF her
sex, Mrs. Alvin T. Hert, vice
chairman of the national commit
tee, changed her mind and several
DAYS ago Withdrew her resignation
recently offered. A scramble of won1-
en- for the place sent Hoover run
ming for cover. He persuaded Mrs
Hert to stay on rather than face q
choice among half a dozen aggres-
sive women who hoped to be elected
to second place in the national COM
n1ittee hierarchy.

Helpful Cops

Sometimes they're not so
mild, but these indianapolis
police do try to satisfy.
When Russell De Hof, %,
of 922 South West street, visit
ed his brother Harold Satur-
day in city prison where the
latter was held on blind tiger
and transporting liquor charges,
he lamented:
I've never been arrested for
anything but driving without
lights"
Early today police said they
found seventy gallons of alco-
hol in his home. He and an
other brother, Paul De Hoff, 81,
are charged with operating a
blind tiger.

DENIES REFUSAL TO
HELP HER DAUGHTER
Mrs. John Heller Asserts She Was
Willing to Pay Bills.


Willing to Pay Bills.
Denial that she had refused to
pay clothing bills that resulted in
her daughters conviction on a petit
larceny charge in municipal court
Saturday was made today by Mrs.
John Heller of 725 East st. Clair
street.
The daughter, Miss Lillian Heller,
"a, who lived with her mother until
two months ago, was fined SIS and
costs and sentenced to the Indiana
woman's prison by Judge Paul C..
Wetter.
The daughter was arrested after
she had bought dresses and other
clothing at downtown department
store, charging them to her mother
without the latter's knowledge.
Il offered to pay the bills" Mrs.
Heller said today, but the court
would not permit it." She said that
the account of the trial which said
she had refused to pay the bills was
erroneous.
Wetter said Mrs. Heller offered
to pay the bills if Wetter would
send her daughter To a south side
correctional institution and not to
prison.
