'GAG' CURTIS ON
LIQUOR ISSUE
Pennsylvania Speech Today
to Avoid Dry Fight.

WASHINGTON, July Twice
President Charles Curtis will avoid
all direct reference to prohibition
when he opens the Pennsylvania
campaign at a Republican rally in
Fogelsville today.
Instead, he willie talk about farm
relief.
Curtis Pennsylvania remarks will
be closely needed in Washington,
because it will be his first speech
since his acceptance speech and
probably his only speech along the
Atlantic seaboard unless Republican
plans are changed.
It, incidentally, will be the first
speech in the east by any major Re
publican campaigner since Maine
went Democratic.
The Vice Presidents decision to
dodge the controversial prohibition
issue results from the numerous
protests made by Pennsylvania Re-
publican leaders against any speech
by him at all because of his sharp
difference of opinion from Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover on what the
Republican platform promises by
way of prohibition reform.
Pennsylvania Republican leaders
now are trying hard to sell Keystone
voters the idea that Hoover is just
as wet as Roosevelt.

may be significant that Adams ex-
hibited the same bluntnesS and bold
ness to be found in Reed and Clark.
Opposed to Reeds prospective sue
cessor IS Henry w. Kiel, former
mayor of st. Louis. He is a good
natured German, whom everybody
loves and calls Henry.
On quitting a political meeting,
he hurries to his hotel to plav
pinochle with his friends AS an
indication of how the Hoover pro-
hibition plank is hurting, Kiels ex-
perience is illuminating.
Beer is a more important issue
here than repeal itself. Everybody
says the return of prosperity de-
ponds on it alone. Beer makers.
coopers, bottle and cork manufac-
turerS, truckers-all await 2.75 per

So it was up to Henry to convince
the voters that beer would flow
sooner under Hoover than the DEM

But his beer-loving, pinochle-play-
ing comrades were shocked. Look
ing at each other in amazement,
they said:
Wy. Henry is turning dry!"
Since then, Kiel contends himself
with proclaiming that he is a drip
ping wet.

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 17.-Only
the shadow of Alfred E. Smith lies
across the path to Democratic vic
tory in the presidential election in
Minnesota.
Barring serious inroads into Gov
ernor Roosevelt's strength by the
Smith faction, which threatens TO
file a national ticket headed by
Smith for President and Governor
Joseph Ely Of Massachusetts, the
Democratic presidential nominee
should carry this Farmer Labor
state.
Straw votes at county fairs show
him enjoying a two-to-one lead over
President Hoover now.
Though there are many special
reasons for this situation. Roose-
velt's best chance lies in the virtu-
ally open alliance his friends have
formed with Governor Floyd Olson,

Minnesota Leans Toward
Cause of Gov. Roosevelt

who shares the leadership of the
Farmer-Labor. party with Senator
Frank Henrik Shipstead.
Olson can be reelected only with
Democratic votes, and Roosevelt
can carry the state only with Farm
er-Labor support. Olson openly has
praised Roosevelt. William Ma
honey, Farmer-Labor mayor of St.
Paul, recently introduced Mayor j.
j. Curley of Boston at a Roosevelt
rally and advised all "Propressives"
to support the Democratic nominee.
Despite some grumbling among
both Farmer-Labor and Democratic
rank and file, the entente is aSsum-
ing definite shape. The Smith
threat is different from that in
other states. The faction favoring
the Smith-Ely ticket is using their
names largely to cement control of
the Democratic organization.
1t does not consist, as in other
states, of men resentful at the re-
buff suffered by the 1923 nominee at
Chicago. 1t is simply struggle for
local control waged between the
Regan-ONeil group and the Wolf
Bremen forces.

5O-YEAR SPAN
IN ACES FAILS
TO HOLD LOVE
Man, IS, Sues to AnnuI
Marriage After Escape
From Sanitarium.

Blood that year ago coursed
as holly as that of any youth in
the veins of Frank Hellman, IS, of
Al North Temple avenue, and led
him into a midnight flight to An
derson to marry a woman approx
mately fifty years his junior, has
grown somewhat colder today.
Wednesday night, Hellman, whose
six feet and 200 pounds belle his adj
vanced age, made another midnight
fight. This time he took french
leave from the Irvington sanitarium
for mental cases, Forty-second street
and the Millersville road, where he
claims he has been detained wrong
fully for nine months.
Results of Hellman's second flight
unraveued themselves in rapid-flre
order.
He fled to the home of his former
guardian, Charles M. Deem, 218
North Temple avenue, while police
and sanitarium authorities searched
Irvington.
Today there is 2 suit on file in
superior court two in which He'll
man, a former railroader, charged
his savings of $4,000 we're dissi-
pated by his marriage, and in which
he asks annulment of the tie.
Holman, according to his petit
ton, was placed under the joint
guardianship of Deem and Claude
M. Smith two years ago when
Marion probate court adjudged him
incompetent, because of age, to
handle his property
With consummation Of his mar
riage after the elopement to Ander-
son, the guardianship was dissolved,
and Hellman charges his wife oo-
tanned control of his estate consist
ing Of the home at the Temple av-
enue address, and preferred real
estate stock and bonds.
The couple lived together a few
months, Helman's suit charges, and
then his wife had him confined in
the Iryington sanitarium.
Mrs. Hellmans side of the story
differs considerably, and labels her
towering husband as too dangerous
because of mental arrangement to
be allowed at large.
The mother of two children, Mrs.
Hellman said she first came in con-
tact with Hellman as his house
keeper, and that he offered her a
home and $4,000 bonus to take care
of him the remainder of his life.
This offer, she said, occurred sew
eral months before their marriage.
Her husband, Mrs Hellman
charges, developed the disconcerting
habit of walking through a window
when he wanted to go. outside thu
house, if the window happened to
be nearer than the door. Another
practice, she asserts, was that of
hiding on neighbors' porches and
generally alarming the neighbor
hood.
A Ratchet was found under his
pillow, she charges, and Holman
spent 81 to have cistern cleaned
to regain gun she had thrown
in it.
Hellman's estate now amounts to
approximately $4,000, with dissolu-
ton Of the guardianship involving
a Shrinkage of Sill 1000.

Books Are Called In From
All of States as Major
Peaks.

BIZ United Press
DENVER, Sept. 1.-THE annual
inventory of the Colorado Noun
tain Climbers Club is under way.
1t is one of the strangest inven-
tories in the country, and it sends
little bands of mountaineers high
up above the clouds, far above
Underline, into the thin, biting
atmosphere nearly three. miles
above sea level.
The club has called in its record
books from mountain peaks of more
than $4,000 feet elevation.
Buried Beneath Rocks
Each year, as soon as climbing
is practical, the club members
carry little record books to the top
of the great peaks that form the
backbone of the Continental Divide.
There are fortysiX peaks in Colo
RADIO, which tower more than $4,000
feet above sea level. Members of the
Mountain Climbers Club have
conquered most of them.
The little books are wrapped in
oil cloth, and buried beneath rock
cairns to protect them from the
violent storms that play around
the ancient peaks.
Then all who climb the peak dur
ing the season inscribe their names
in the books.
In the early fall, long before it's
fall in the lowlands, the club orders
in the books.
Is Higher Than Pixies Peak
Hardy club members have band
ed together in small groups to make
the perilous ascents to secure the
books so that the club can make
its tally of the number of persons
who have reached the greatest
heights the Rockies afford during
the 1882 season.
Of the 46 peaks that exceed a.
900 feet, IS of them are higher than
Pixies Peak. There are more than
1000 peaks in Colorado which are
10000 feet or more above sea level.
