IVAN MORGAN
FIGHTS MOVE
TO GUST HIM

Ivan Morgan, state chairman of
the Republican party, will be de-
Tended at the meeting of the state
committee Tuesday when an
effort, ascribed to Senator James E.
Watson, will be made to GUST him
and put Don Irwin Of Frankfort IN
his place.
Morgan will place before the
committee his record of running the
party on a business basis and, for
the first time in years, putting 1t
into a solvent condition.
Back of the Watson fight against
Morgan is said to be the refusal of
Morgan to steam roller the last
convention for Springer.
Some days before the convention
so it is asserted, Watson called Nor
gan and insisted on naming as
chairman Eliza Rogers of Lebanon,
stating that the reason was that
there had been an agreement to
nominate Springer and a chairman
was needed who would perform"
At the same time other candidates
had been nicked for $500 as an en-
trance fee on the theory that the
convention would be deliberative
and that Watson would keep hands
off. This was especially true in the
case of M. Burt Thurman, who had
every reason to believe that Wat
son would favor, or at least not OBJ
struct, his own candidacy.
Morgan, so it is related, told Wat
son that the men who had put up
$500 should have a run for their
money and, from that time on, he
was off the Watson books.
In a meeting held at Muncie fol-
lowing the election, Morgan was
called upon to give an account of
his stewardship. He told the mem
bers that the committee was in debt
to the extent of $4,000 when he
took charge. Among the creditors
was Harry Fenton, secretary, to the
extent of $4,000. Micky Hanrahan,
field worker, was back $4,000 and
Gaylord Morton, auditor for the
party, had $4,000 coming.
There was a hotel bill for two
years for $4,000 and the telephone
company had extended credit to the
extent of $4,000.
Morgan raised the money to clear
the debts, run the campaign on a
cash basis, and still has a balance
of about $4,000 in the treasury, the
first time, it is said, since former
Governor James Goodrich was chair
man.
This record will be brought into
the open when the committee meets.
Under the rules all meetings must
be open to the public.
Friends of Morgan are fighting
mad They will protest against
Watson again becoming dictator of
the organization.

to get help from his former wife.
Mystery surrounded his death
Two bottles of medicine prescribed

lice expressed the belief Davis died
a natural death.
Davis telephoned his former wife.
Mrs. Ruth Davis. at p. m Thurs

she said, she was affable and in
good spirits.
Early today, however, he called

BONE DRY LAW
DOOMED, SAYS
GOV. M'NUTT
Repeal to Come, No Matter
What Beer Bills Fate,
Asserts Executive.

Beer bill, or no beer bill, the
Wright bone dry law will be re-
pealed at this session Of the legis-
lature."
This was the assurance given
newspaper men Friday by Governor
Paul v. McNutt.
He explained that the admins
tration beer control bill is being
delayed purposely, pending action
Of congress.
Should this delay be too pro-
longed, the Wright law will be re-
pealed without the beer control
bill" he asserted.
Predicated on Congress Action
Our beer control measure was
predicated upon passage of the
Collier bill by congress" McNutt ex-
planned. But that bill has been
changed completely in its approach
to the problem. In the United
States senate they have adopted the
Beck view Of modification
This view is based upon the alco-
holic content Of beverages as being
Misunderstanding "in fact" and makes
the measure different from the
stated limit of 81 per cent beer,
upon which the Collier bill first was
based.
The theory of nonintoxicants "in
fact" was advanced by Representa-
tive James Beck Of Pennsylvania.
Death of the beer bill has been
predicted freely, following its re-
commitment to the public morals
committee in the house, after it
was Withdrawn by administration
leaders from second reading in the
house.
Bill Just Sleeping
The Governor assured wondering
vets that the dill is not dead, but
sleeping.
He said that he is eager to have
beer control in the state as soon
as it's sale is legalized by the ma
tionaI government.
Only in this way can sale be con-
trOlled to prevent the return of sa-
looms and give the state revenue,
the Governor pointed out.
He is DESTROYS that this be ac-
complished without calling a spe-
Cial session Of the legislature, he
said.

that Samuel Clemens was Americas
greatest writer.
His family had determined that
young GalSworthy was to be bar
rister. For three years he attended
New College, oxford, being gradu-
ated in 1889 and receiving an honor
degree in law at Lincoln's Inn in
1890.
The law did only one thing of
Importance for him. Deciding that
it he had to practice at all-and he
hated the idea-he would prefer the
admiralty courts, he took passage
for the cape one day on the sailing
ship Torrens, to familiarize himself
with ships.
First officer aboard the Torrens
was a man named Joseph Conrad
They became friends, and when
Conrad was on night watch sailor
and barrister would talk of litera-
ture.
Mr.. Galsworthy spent March and
April of 1892 aboard the Torrens
and toward the close of the long
voyage Conrad shyly revealed that
he was writing a book and produced
part of the manuscript of cal
mayors Folly"
Galsworthy urged Conrad to con-
tinue his writing and they remained
friends until the latter's death.
n
MFR. GALswoRTHY' like many
Iva men of talent, spent some
years trying to evade his work
rather than plunging into it. His
efforts at escape took him on many
long Journeys.
Forty years ago he was in New
York for the first time, on his way
home from Canada. Afterward he
visited Russia, New Zealand, South
America, and the Fijis before settling
down to write, and he continued
throughout his lifetime to make
periodic trips abroad, which includ-
ed many trips to America and a
journey to the war zone during
Frances recent Moroccan trouble.
It was three years after his voy-
age with Conrad before he began
to write and eight years before the
first of those volumes which we're
to compose the Forsyte Saga saw
the light of day.
Mr.. Galsworthy met Mark Twain
later in life when the Clemens
family was staying at DOLLS Hill.
They sat all one afternoon under a
tree in the garden and Galsworthy
found the American quite as good
as 1 had expected"
Mr. Galsworthy and his wife, Ada,
Who in 1882 elaborated with her
husband in a translation of the
libretto of Carmen" had their
town house at the Groves, Hemp
stead, near the house where Du
Maurier used to live. But they pre-
ferred the Devonshire countryside
and left it only when necessary or

the United States which usually, of
late years. brought them to Arizona

is almost divine, but not heart
warming. We rather prefer to have
a playwright take sides"
Mr.. Galsworthy in his later years
was greatly concerned by trends OF
modern civilization which he re-
garded as inimical to fine writing
In 1911 he protested against the
proposed use of the airplane as an
instrument of war, declaring: The
water and the earth are big enough
to fight in-leave the air to limo
cence."
T AFTER he protested vehemently
IL against scientific progress in the
development of war instruments
declaring that it presaged the end
of everything.
In 1882 he told an audience in
Brooklyn that the present trend
seemingly doomed stature and
charm-two requisites of great let
ters." Publicity, Standardization
and rapid transportation came in
for special attack on these grounds
Truth and beauty are hard
quest, but what else is worth seek
ing?" he asked.
Although he several times de-
clared himself through with the
Forsytes, he was reluctant to give
them up and his last novels were
always linked to the family by at
least one genealogical thread, how
ever slender. Last of his books was
"Flowering Wilderness" published
! in November of 1882.

BEER, in an evaluati,

THOMAS BEER, in an evaluation
l. written a little more than a
decade ago, called him the last de-
fender of the dying art of gentility.
This is truth, and yet does not go
far enough.
GalSworthy had a passion for So
cial justice, for fair play and for
that beauty which he felt had not
gone from the world, but was in
grave danger of passing from the
hearts Of men.
John Galsworthy was born at
Coombe, in Surrey, on Aug. IA
1867, of a family which always had
lived in Devonshire, the county in
which he was later to maintain his
own country residence. His mother
was Bartlett, of Worcestershire.
He received his early schooling at
Harrow, where he was captain of
the football eleven and an athlete
of some consequence, winning the
mile foot race and other track
events. But in those years, 1881 to
1886, he had enough of games.
Il do not like he once said,
the spirit of competition. There
is something very uncomfortable
about it."
And he went on to say that COM
petition of a certain kind, for money
or against time, destroyed the i'm
pulses of art. With this sort of
competition he never himself was
concerned. A comfortable inheri-
lance made him independent.
