state has abandoned the idea of
voluntary contributions.

Speech Laid to Politics
Government Official Hints
Probe May Be Made of

Copyright, 1882. BY united Press

lCopYrlght, 1881 Dy united PreSS)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-Belief
that political influences were partly
responsible for the stock market
drop the day after President Hoo
ver's acceptance speech was voiced
to the United Press today by a gov
eminent official in close touch with
market conditions.
He said he believed this to have
been true of both the New York
Stock Exchange and the grain
market.
Information TO this effect, he said
had come to him from a confden-
tial, private source in position to
know some of the facts.
Resumption of the market adj
vance has strengthened the sus-
picions in some quarters that Fri
days decline had been forced.
1t is possible that an investiga-
ton will be made either through
government sources, or by persons
friendly to the administration.
President Hoover 1t was under
stood, had been advised that GER
tain influences helped press the
market down for political reasons.
Whether he had planned to take
any cognizance of Che situation
himself could not be learned.
Everett Sanders, chairman of the
Republican national committee, re-
fused To- discuss thegalaaEter iTaAany
way when questioned at Chicago.
The day after President Hoover
delivered his acceptance speech, the
stock market took the widest de-
cline since October, 1881.
Losses ran from l to 7 points.

WADSWORTH TO
TRY COMEBACK
EX-NeW York Senator Was
Victim of Dry Decade.

By Sc'ipps-H0icard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Aug. 16-The
first notable victim of the sentiment
which produced the dying dry de-
cade will try to make a comeback in
November as an humble candidate
for the house of representatives in
which he may sit at the taiI-end of
minor committees.
He is James w. Wadsworth Jr.
famous Yale baseball player of the
'9O's, a descendant of the Wads-
worth who was a close friend of
Alexander Hamilton, and a buddy
OF Warren G. Harding. He was the
senatorial successor to Elihu Root. a
presidential prospect himself before
his senatorial defeat in 1926, and a
man who def1ed the Anti Saloon
League at the peak of it's power.
Back in 1926 it was predicted that
II he won reelection to the senate
in New York, he would be the
logical Republican nominee for the
White House in 1928.
He might have been the man
around whom the old guard and
New York crowd would have success
fully rallied against President
Hoover.
Wadsworth refused to pussyfoot
on prohibition, when he faced re-
election to the senate in 1925, so
ne lost To friends who urged him
to remain silent and not set forth
his repeal views on the eve of cleo
ton, he said:

critic"

LOAN SHARKS
MEASURE DIES
IN HOUSE VOTE
Ballot Count Is rs to Sc
After Lengthy Debate
on Bill.

Effort to pass the senate bill re-
ducing the small loan interest rate
Of 81 per cent month to 2 per
cent was defeated in the house OF
representatives late Monday by a
rs to So vote after lengthy debate.
Before the bill was put on final
passage Representative Herbert P
Kenney DEM New Albany, sought
TO amend the measure by having
the 81 per cent rate prevail for the
first $3.50 and 2i7 per cent rate
on the remainder Of loan
Don't the representatives real
ize that II this amendment is
adopted the loan sharks will refuse
to make loans for more than $3.50
and have the borrowers OF more
than that make two notes?" asked
Representative E. E. Eikenbary
DEM, Wabash
The amendment was killed
Hot Argument Wages
Debate was opened by Represent
alive Earl Crawford DEM, Mil
ton, who asserted
This bill, reducing the small loan
rate, has been introduced in every
session. 1t is not the borrowers who
introduce the bill, but the fellows
looking for shakedown who are
hack of this measure.
Records of the state banking
department reveal that the average
earnings of the small loan opera
tors subtracting losses and expenses
is only Id per cent. There is no
provision of the law debarring a
small loan concern from reducing
its interest rate and twenty three
of these companies in Indiana are
charging only De per cent.
Tells of Lobby Attempt
The reason why no borrower
comes to the hearing on these bills
is that they have been robbed by
the loan sharks so that they haven't
the funds to come here and they
haven't the clothes to get here, -
Eikenbary retorted. If the OPP
orators can't make money out OF
the decreased interest rate, they can
get out of the business.
"A similar measure failed to pass
by a constitutional majority in the
1881 session" declared Representa-
tive John D. T. Bold DEM, Evans
vile. ON the night of the vote a
lobbyist met me in downtown no.
tel and said Bold what can we
do for you to make you change
your vote?' That's the way the
bill is handled"
