Torrents Are Needed

General rains throughout the
state Friday and carly today will
be of little, if any, value in drought
stricken sections Of Indiana.
And, according to the weather
bureau, no torrential rains, which
really are needed to relieve the sit
uation, are in prospect. According
to j.. H. Arlington, head of the
bureau, the heaviest rainfall on FRI
day was 8 of an inch at Terre
Haute.
In Indianapolis the rainfall was
recorded at Z of an inch and in
other parts of the state it ranged
from .25 to rs of an inch, with the
northern section of the state getting
more than southern areas.
There may be light rains in In
diana in the next twenty-four hours
or so, but due to an expected drop III
temperature this precipitation will
be of no value.
With the mercury at SO at to-
day, Arlington said the tempera-
ture will drop to near freezing by
Sunday. This may be accompanied
by some snow in the northern part
of the state tonight, he said,

JORDAN AGAIN LOSES
FIGHT ON CONFESSION
Second Alleged Admission
of Killing Admitted
as Evidence.

Frank Jordan's fight to escape
the electric chair for the alleged
murder of Raymond I. Cole in the
Greenfield love triangle Staying last
October continued in criminal court
this morning as the state neared the
end of its case.
Jordan, whose case was venued
out of Greenfield, is charged with
killing Cole to marry the latter's
wife, Mrs. Marie Cole, who is held
in the Hancock county jail for COM
plicity in the killing.
States Attorneys William r.
Ringer, Marion county, and William
Russell, Hancock county, scored a
victory late Friday afternoon when
L. Ert Slack, trial judge, admitted
Jordan's second purported confess
sion in evidence.
Crowds Hear Testimony
After two hours of arguments
with the jury absent, Slack held
that authorities did not obtain the
confession under duress
In the latter confession Jordan
admitted he killed Cole when the
trio met in a lonely lane near
Greenfield Jordan's first confess
sion placed all the blame on Mrs
Cole, states attorney disclosed.
Crowds of record proportion lis
tened to the evidence as Mrs. Jor-
dan, sitting beside her husband
heard accusations that Jordan had
an illicit love affair with Mrs. Cole
for more than six months.
Almost Starved to Death
Jordan testified that he was "al-
most starved to death" for eleven
days during which he was ques-
toned in Greenfield. He said he
signed the second confession rather
than die of starvation"
John Nye, former Hancock county
sheriff, and witnesses to Jordan's
second confession, testified that
Jordan said he did not want to leave
the Greenfield Jail because I was
treated like a prince"
They quoted Jordan as saying he
had IAN awful load off my chest"
after signing of the confession.

WILSON POLICY
ABANDONED BY
.ST|MSON STAND
United States to Accept Any
Responsible South Ameri-
can Government.

By United Press
NEW YORK, Feb. I'm his first
public speech on Americas present
foreign policy, State Secretary
Henry L. Stimson Friday night in
terpreted it as an abandonment of
interference in South American
countries and a willingness to rec
ognize any new government which
can and will fulfill its internationI
obligations.
This policy represents an aban-
donment Of that of President Will
son, which he described as a source
of controversy in the western hemi-
sphere for nearly two decades, and
a return to the Jeffersonian theory.
Three Basic Elements
AS interpreted by the Hoover adj
ministration, Secretly Stimson said
this rests upon three basic ele-
ments.
l. The Monroe Doctrine, he said,
States against Europe, and not the
United States against Latin-Amer-
lea" 1t guarantees the rights Of
South American republics as in
dependent nations.
2. A different situation exists in
Central America. There, he said,
our policy Of not recognizing any
government coming into power
through revolution has prevented
much bloodshed, since revolutions
heretofore practically were yearly
occurrence.
3. The policy of noninterference
by the United States is carried out
by the recent embargo upon the
shipment of arms to rebels by
American manufacturers.
Speech Is Broadcast
The speech, delivered before the
council of foreign relations, later
was broadcast over the Columbia
system and sent by short wave to
South America.
John w. Davis, former ambassa-
dor to England in the Wilson ad-
ministration, presided at the dinner
Owen d. young, author of the Eu-
ropean debt settlement, was among
the guests.
Wilson, Stimson said, by his re-
fusal to recognize the de facto Mex
lean government of Victoriano
Huerta in 1913, departed from the
course of policy laid down by
Thomas Jefferson more than CEN
fury before and armed conflict fol-
lowed"
He sought, Stimson said, to prop
agate these republican, institu-
tons in a foreign country by the di-
rect influence of this government,
and to do this against the desire of
the authorities and the people of
Mexico"
Principles of Jefferson
The Hoover policy, the secretary
explained, is based, contrarily, on
the assertion of jefferson, who said,
in 1892:
I'VE certainly can not deny to
other nations that principle where
on our own government is founded,
that every nation has a right to
govern itself internally under what
forms it pleases, and to change
these forms at it's own will, and ex-
ternally to transact business with
other nations through whatever or
gan it chooses whether that be
king, convention, assembly, COM
mittee, president or whatever it
be-"

CONGRESS TO
ACT FAST ON
WAR PENSIONS
BroadenS Relief Program
for u. S. Veterans
and Widows.
WORKING OUT DETAILS
Bonus Measure Will Be
Placed Before House
Next Week.
By United Press

ny CntteU PFeS6
WASHINGTON, Feb. THE adj
ministration broadened its World
war veterans relief program today
beyond the $500, 100000 compromise
bonus plan to include a $4,000 600
disqualification program and pen
SionS for widows and orphans of
former service men.
At the same time, Representative
Bacharach Rep., N. j., who is
drafting the bonus bill for the ways
and means committee, predicted the
compromise measure would be
passed by congress within ten days.
1t is planned to bring it before the
house next week.
Extension of pensions to the wild
oWs and orphans, which would call
for $18,000,000 the first year, is con-
tingent upon holding the bonus
legislation to maximum of $780,
100000.
Works on Bonus Details
The plan is being brought for
ward to check attempts to increase
the bill beyond that figure.
Bacharach today was working out
the details of the bonus bill which
would increase the loan limit on
veterans adjusted service certifi-
Gates and reduce the interest rate
on all loans from to 4 per cent.
He proceeded on the basis of con-
ferences Friday with Treasury Sec
rotary Mellon.
The loan limit probably would be
increased from 221z to so per cent,
certainly not over that.
Sentiment in the senate is re-
ported to be crystallizing for plan
similar to Bacharach's, so that
speedy action seems assured.
Advised by American Legion
Pensions for World war widows
and orphans is a new departure.
1t is included in an elaborate pro-
gram submitted to congress recently
by the American Legion.
The pensions would be $50 a
month for widows and Sc a month
for each child under Is.
1t is estimated the pensions would
cost $30,0o0,000 the second year and
$45, 100000 the third year, increas-
ing gradually.
If all these measures are enacted
at the cost now estimated, appro-
priations for veterans at this ses-
sion would total 81 1894, 100000.

CHICAGO, Feb. Light SHOWS

Precipitation, varying in degree
from showers, drizzles and snow

from the droughtS of last year and

wheer it was most needed as the
water famine has become acute.
Light snow was followed by rain
in Chicago, but the total precipita-

trace.
In some sections of the Rocky

North Dakota, Minnesota, Montana,
Wisconsin and Michigan, SnoWfalls
we're reported, but in no section was
there any prospect Of what ordinar-

Forecasts today were for more
rain in the middle west.
Although the rain was moderately
heavy throughout southern Illinois
Friday night and amounted to
downpours in a few counties, it gen.
orally was agreed that not enough
water fell to reduce materially the
danger from a water famine.
Days of rain are needed there,
according to reports, to put the
