Ammunition Train No. I" Carries Strangest Gu- bernatOrial Candidate on Transforming Tour

Milford, Kan, Oct 6-(UP)- Ammunition train No. 1" carries the campaign circus of Dr John B. Brinkley, goat gland specialist, on the most spectacular, and probably the strangest gubernatorial cam- paign tour in this states history.
 Trumpets sound, and loudspeak- CTS blare as the independent can didate barred from medical prac- tice few years ago, campaigns with his wife and son, Johnny Boy" at the head of the strange procession in huge, golden brown 16-cylinder automobile.
 Other cars bearing members of the group follow. And bringing up the rear is great truck, on which is combined a loud-speaking sys- tenn and speakers platform.
 He makes three or four speeches a day. By November he will have appeared at least once in every county of the state. Thousands of voters have listened to his radio speeches.
 His night addresses are most dramatic. Ammunition train No. 1"-there is only one-rumbles IHtO tOWn Just dC QuSk.
 His workmen leap from the truck and hook up the broadcast ing system. Mournful cowboy bal lads, sung by a former radio enter tainer, reach everyone within q quarter of mile. They can't help listeneing.
 Other independent candidates speak. Then lights go out every where except above the speakers platform. Brinkley, dressed in white linen suit and soft straw hat, mounts the platform. His son is at his side. His wife precedes.
 The Rev Samuel Cookson, of Milford, steps to the microphone to extol the doctors virtues, to tell of his philanthropy, and to offer prayer.
 Brinkley steps forward, seats himself before the microphone, and begins his address. His gut tural voice rises and falls. He ges- lures frequently. always with his right arm.
 Then Brinkley slips away like a dim wrath into the shadows. His entertainers continue until the crowd fades away.

DEFENSE RESTS
 IN MURDER CASE
Retrial of Innkeeper Be- fore Three Judges
 Moves On

Bridgeport Conn, Oct 6-(UP) The defense in the second trial of Joseph Journey, innkeeper charged with murder of Frank Buda, rested shortly before noon today after Journey had denied emphatically that he shot Buda in Easton last March.
 The defense entered testimony of Journey and his wife which was largely a repetition of what they had said in the first trial, which resulted in Journey being convicted and sentenced to hang. The con yiction was reversed by the state supreme court of errors.
 On cross examination. states Attorney Lorin Willis drew from Mrs Journey q statement that she lived in fear of her husband.
 The state started, rebuttal testi- mony after the defense had rest ed. The state was expected to of- fer rebutttal to the statement late yesterday of Harry A. Labracque of Syracuse, N. Y, that the gun found with Buda's body was not the one he gave Journey several years ago and the only gun Jour- ney was known to possess.
 Three judges will render the verdict.

crashed In such a way that the
wings blocked the entrance to The
cabin. Exercising our mass

tearing the wings apart.
