CHICAGO BANKS
AID GRAFT PROBE
Investigation of II Police
Captains Shows Huge Sums
Placed in Private Accounts.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, April 21.-Special grand
jurors, seeking TO uncover alleged police
graft, today were putting the private
banking records Of Chicago police cap
tains under scrutiny.
The records of the financial affairs
OF IT captains were already in the jury's
possession, and the information re-
ported to have been obtained led to an
announcement by officials that the In
quiry would be extended to include
every nook Of the department, where
crookedness might be suspected.
Oficials of more than 20 banks yes
terday tod the jurors what they knew
of the accounts of of the II captains.
and while no official announcement was
made of exactly what they revealed,
the Heard and Examiner said 1t was
learned that one captain had been de-
posting as much as $4,000 a day.
I'VE are on the right track at last, "
said J. A. Farmer, foreman of the jury.
I'VE found substantial sums which are
suspicious at least. In the case Of one
police captain We found that he had
been carrying separate accounts in two
different banks. In other instances We
found that the captains under scrutiny
had transferred accounts 10 their
wives.
Ohicials said they eventually would
require more than 200 banks to FUR
nish the jurors with records of police
captains financial affairs.

'ORATORY INTEREST
. GAINS IN MEXICO
International Contest Again
viii Draw Entry From
Republic.

The International Oratorical Contest
Is in progress this year in Mexico on a
larger scale than ever, according to a
report received today by Randolph
Leigh, director general, from Eduardo
Elizondo, president of Ell Universal,
sponsor of the contest in Mexico.
Mexico has made an envfable reputa-
ton in the International contest, hav-
ing won first place one year and second
place another year. The Mexican win
ner of the International Contest was
Arturo Garcia Fermenti, who in 1927
won first place in the Grand Finals.
The Mexican contest is divided into
eight major zones. The winner in each
of these zones participates in the Mex
lean national finals held in Mexico
City the last of May each year.
The contestants in Mexico, as in the
other nations participating in the con-
test. discuss their own national ideals
and institutions.
For number of years the Mexican
contest has had an extemporaneouS
feature similar to that employed in the
National Oratorical Contest in the
United States and in the International
Oratorical Contest in the different
countries.
The Mexican contest has an interest
ing connection with the International
Oratorical Contest. due to the fact that
in 1925, before the expansion of the
National Oratorical Contest into an
international contest, an experimental
contest was conducted in Mexico by
Ell Universal, under a plan prepared by
and under the general direction of
Randolph Leigh. The object of that
contest was to determine whether or
not the type of secondary competition
which had proven so successful in the
United States was applicable to foreign
lands
The experimental contest in Mexico
proved so successful that, the following
year, the contest was launched as an
international project, with five nations
England, France, Mexico, Canada
and the United States-participatin
Since that time, the International
Oratorical Contest has expanded until
it now embraces the leading nations in
North and South America and Europe.

REPUBLICAN HUNT
FOR SPEAKER is ON
TO RETAIN POWER
CONTINUED From First Page.)

fContlnued from F1rSI PaBeD
time has been active as an under
cover man" doing special work for the
regular Republican organization. Rep
resentatiYe Carl Mapes of Michigan
who has handled several special jobs
for the party organization, Is considered
a promising compromise candidate.
Out of the dickering between the
regulars and ProgressiveS may come q
Zeal through which the Eastern States
will be allowed to elect a speaker (if
the candidate is one who Is not often
sive' to the Prcgressives) with united
party support, provided that the West
ern States are allowed to furnish the
House leader.
But the first big fight for the Repub-
lican party comes in the old Longworth
district in Ohio. There the Democrats
are preparing to make the most inten-
sive campaign ever focused upon one
particular district by the party chief
tains There the Republicans have the
burden of proof-to explain away the
depression, the high tariff-in a district
that has never been too secure and
which came near to defeating Mr.. Long
worth in the last election.
II the Republicans lose that particu-
lar district they have no advantage
whatever in the Speakership with the
House absolutely evenly divided and
will probably lose to the Democrats,
who will unitedly, to a man, support
Representative Jack" Garner. In that
event the only Republican hope would
be pinned on one man. Representative
Paul j. Kvale. the only third-party
man in the House, a Farmer-Laborite.
Almost any way you look at this
complex situation. the Republicans
have an intricate problem to solve,
and they have not been making much
Roadway on it.
