FURIOUS FIGHT FORECAST OVER

COMPLAINTS MADE
 FROM ALL SIDES
Compromise Plank Report ed This Afternoon
 New Amendment

CHICAG o, H., June 13. - A swiftly rising whirlpool of Repub- lican dissension over Prohibition today completely engulfed the chos- en representatives of the party on the eve of the National Convention, to general and rear rank privates alike.
 What to do about the dry law became the one big question.
 Not only are the delegates ready to renominated Herbert Hoover but sentiment is turning definitely to Charles Curtis for Vice. President.
 All lesser disputes over the plat form procedure seemed headed to harmonious decision but no one ex- pected harmony on Prohibition.
 Furious Fight Forecast
 The prediction of a plank "ac- ceptable to all of us," has gone up in smoke and the most furious platform battle of any G. o. P. convention since the League of Nations row in 1920 is forecast. Haggard and plainly discouraged after many hours of conference, high commanders of the Republican Party continued their efforts at compromise while indignant drys and insistent vets hammered at their doors.
 Prohibition Plank
 The much revived version of the plank brought from Washington after consultation with President Hoover remained the testing block. The plank declares for resubmis- sion on the question to the people but recommends neither repeal, re- tention nor modification.
 In a continuous succession of ral- lies Sunday, organized drys de- nounced the proposed plank as insipid and insidious.

CHICAGO, Ill, June 13.-Second only to Prohibition, Republicans ara speculating on the renomination of ice-President Charles Curtis as the running mate for President Hoover.
 In pre-convention spec GU ation, Hoover's friends are apparently for Curtis without reservation and the question who else but Curtis" seemed to offer nothing but material for speculation, aside from the long standing party practice to renom- mate the ce-President when he is willing to serve again.
 There is no outstanding oppon- ent to Curtis. His dry standing is also regarded as valuable. The Republicans, if they do adopt re- submission plank, would not wish to alienate the dry element entirely by throwing Curtis overheard.

EVIDENCE CRUMBLING

ALPINE, New Jersey, June 13.-- A fabric, outwardly promising an inquiry fashioned from the suicide of Morrow woman servant, ap- peared to be crumbling today in the hands of the Lindbergh baby murder investigators, by informa- tion supplied by a loyal friend, Septimus Banks, the Morrow but Ter, who discredited any link be- tween Miss Violet Sharpe, waitress who drank poison, and Ernest Brinkert, ex-convict, on the night of March 1 when the baby was kidnapped.
 The police found an Ernest Mill CT and Miss Catherine Minner, who identified tn m selves as Miss Sharpe's companions on the auto mobile ride that night.
 Clears All
 Their joint statements, coupled with the alibi from Brinkert, tend ed to clear both him and Miss Sharpe of any suspicion.
 Miller told the police the details of the automobile ride on the night of March 1 and said he did not see why Miss Sharpe kept the ride a secret.
 Police officials reiterated that Miss Sharpe had identified a pie ture of Brinkert as being her com panion on the ride.
 Brinkert is being held for furth- CT questioning.
 Banks, the butler, told the police of Miller whom he said Miss Sharpe had an attachment.
 The police said all stories told by Brinkert and Miss Sharpe's companions will be carefully check ed before this phase of the in yestigation is to be cleared up.

Rapid Rise m Party Ranks PutsP J. Hurley to Fore as
 Ne,u Republican Chairman
By HERBERT PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, June 13-When President Hoover elevated the youthful and debonair Patrick J. Hurley of Oklahoma to a post in his Cabinet as Secretary of War at the death of James w. Good, the expressions of approval were general.
 Pat will supply color" it was said, "to the somewhat Sombre and serious-minded Hoover official fam ily."
 There wasn't a great deal known about him. Some had heard that he was born the son of a poor Irish immigrant on Indian terri tory, that at the age of II he was driving mule in a mine, and at IA was a cowboy on a ranch called the Lazy s.
 It was known also that he had worked his way through college studied law in Washington at night, and after graduation had gone back to Oklahoma and made a fortune in real estate, banking and oil
 May Be Party Chairman
 More is known of Hurley now, however, for the Oklahoman has made himself felt not only in gov ernmental circles but also in poli- ties So much so, in fact, that indi- cations now point strongly to him as the next Republican Party Chairman succeeding Simeon D. Fess.
 Hurley came into the political limelight during the Hoover cam paign of 1928 Some credited him with delivering half of the Oklaho- ma delegation to Hoover at Kansas City and being one of the men who aided in carrying the State for the President.
 Partly as a reward for this, he was made a member of the Hoover little cabinet" as Assistant Secre- tary of War.
 From the time of that appoint ment the political star of the sprightly MT. Hurley began to rise. He familiaried himself with every detail of the War Department rou- tine. He displayed an aptness for getting things done with the least possible effort.
 But, what is most important Patrick J. Hurley began to i'm press those around him that, he had a pretty good political head.
 Wins Favor of Hoover
 It wasn't long before it was noised around that the President regarded his youthful Secretary of War as one of the strongest links in his administration He was a member of the famed medicine ball cabinet. and gossip had it that the President. would yell "Pat!" as he heaved the ball in his direction.
 Then came the meeting of the Republican National Committee in Washington and the definite en- trance of Patrick J. Hurley upon the political stage as a power in the councils of the Republican Party.
