PARTY CHIEFS
DISPUTE AGAIN
HELPS PETERS
Van Nuys Tells Appointees
to Ignore MCNutt Plan
on Club Gifts.
BY DANIEL VI. KIDNEY
Times stan Writer


Divide and conquer" is the
ancient, but still successful tactic,
being pursued by hackers Of r. Earl
Peters in his race for the Demo-
cratic nomination for the United
States senate.
Hope for Mr. Peters control Of the
convention lies in keeping Governor
Paul V. McNutt and Senator Fred
erick Van Nuys from agreeing on
any Of the other candidates, who
now appear TO be getting numerous.
That they are far from agreement
was indicated by several incidents
reported from washington over the
weekend.
At Odds With Van Nuys
. Governor McNutt was in the ma
tional capital for an address at the
National Press Club on Saturday
night. During the day. a press
release came from Senator Van
Mugs which was interpreted to be
a direct slap at the McNutt method
of raising campaign funds through
2 per cent club collections.
Il was a memorandum addressed
to all federal employees, who pro-
cured jobs through Senator Van
Mugs. saying that they would not
be assessed in that manner and
urging that they do not join in such
a movement.
The C0,-ary,Or roff NTYoeH,;yrvfoy,
without seeing the senator, al
though 1t was reported he talked TO
him by telephone. He did see For
rest Harness. Kokomo attorney and
Republican holdover, who has been
trying to get Samuel insult back
from Greece for the United States
department Of justice.
Sullivan County Dispute
Like the Governor, Mr.. Harness
is a past commander Of the Indiana
department of the American Legion.
1t is well known now that SEN
ator Van Mugs leading lieutenant
here took a personal interest in the
Sullivan county craftsmanship fight
against McNutt dictation and on
the side of the Bays faction, which
was victorious there.
Meanwhile, all this makes Mr..
Peters chuckle. He attended love
fest for himself in the Governors
Lime town Of Bloomington Satur-
day and heard himself praised by
the county chairman there. The
Governor wasn't even mentioned, it
was reported.
Others in the Race
Sherman Minton, public coun-
selor. is expected to enter the race
officially this week and Clarence
Jackson, state income tax collector,
already is considered in. Last week
Harvey Cole. Peru attorney, an
nounced, and there are many others
still to come.
But if Mr.. Peters continues sue
ceSSful in his campaign to keep the
Governor and senator from agree
ment, he is very apt to win the
nomination, it is conceded.
Both Governor McNutt and SEN
ator Van Mugs publicly have in
Dictated that they are personally
of Peters" but somehow the for
mer state chairman from Fl. Wayne
manages TO keep the other poll
ticians pulling the two officials
apart.

NEW YORK. September 22.-The
part played by laboratory microscope
and test tubes in running down clues
to the person handling Lindbergh
ransom money-and eventually Bruno
Richard Hauptmann's arrest-was de-
scribed today in the New York Times.
DR.. Alexander o. Gettler, chief toxi-
cologist for the city, for several weeks
pored over the ransom bills as they
turned up to determine what sort OF
person was passing them to merchants
and banks Then he told police OF
his conclusions.
II have found" he reported, that
most of this money has q musty
smell, as though 1t had been long
buried or secreted somewhere where
the air could not reach it.
GIycerin Trace Found.
II have also discovered that a great
many Of the certificates have invisible
bits Of glycerin esters on their sur
face"
DR.. Gettler concluded the presence
of the glycerin compound indicated
the bills were being handled by a
mechanic who ground his own tools.
This theory was strengthened by the
discovery, under a microscope, of oc-
casional bits of emery, used in tool
grinding, on some Of the certificates.
I'VE knew then that we had to
look for a mechanic" a police ofncial

gave them the money looked like q

Meanwhile, an eminent psychiatrist
whose name was withheld, was an
alyzing the ransom notes collected by
authorities. After searching study, he
gave his report.
II am led to believe" this scientist
concluded, "that the writer Of these

He is not given to personal display
He Is reticent, very careful. very

All these characteristics, it developed

Bit by bit, the detectives were able
to pick up other tell-tale evidence
of the mans personality. Storekeepers
were more observant; other persons
came forward with valuable informa-

PRESIDENT FAVORS
LARGER AIR FORCE
Baker Report Approved and
Plans Made to Buy
1000 Planes.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
To give the United States the big
gest and best air force in the world,
President Roosevelt has approved the
Baker Board report and authorized
the War Department to include plans
for purchase Of 1000 new planes in
its 1896 budget.
The Baker Committee, headed by
Newton D. Baker, former Secretary of
War, recommended an aerial armada
Of from 1900 to 2,400 Army planes.
The Air Corps estimated it now has
about 300 serviceable planes. The
program to increase this to 1900,
which involves the purchase of planes
for requirements as well as buying the
1000 additional craft, would be spread
over the next few years.
Secretary of War Dern. who is un-
derstood to have submitted the Baker
Board report to the President before
he left for Hyde Park, declined today
to make any comment and referred
all inquiries to the President.
Budget to Ask Funds.
But from authoritative sources it
was learned that the War Depart
ment's budget, now being prepared,
includes requests that Congress grant
funds to carry out the plane pro-
gram.
The Presidents approval Of the
Baker report, disclosed authoritatively,
means that the Executive has turned
thumbs down on the idea of unifying
the Army and Navy air fleets. The
report approved the present system
of separate forces.
Gen. William Mitchell, former as
sistant chief of the Army Air Corps,
has been a leading advocate of uni
f1cation. When the Baker report vas
made public, Mitchell and other pro-
ponents of the unified air corps an
nounced they would carry their fight
before the Presidents Air Survey
Committee, headed by Clark Howell
Of Atlanta, which opens hearings
here next week.
One recommendation Of the Baker
board-for flying training of West
Point cadets-was made partially
effective yesterday when the War
Department announced that, begin
ming next Summer, the first and third
classmen at the Military Academy
would be given 20-hour flying courses
at Mitchell Field, New York.
Retirement System Studied.
In making announcement of this
decision, Dern added it was only the
first step in program and that even
tually it was hoped that every grad
uate of the military academy would
be a qualified air pilot
The Army general staff is working
on a combined retirement and selec-
ton system to replace the present
Army system of promotion by SEN
iority. That change, too, was sug-
gested by the Baker Board.
The War Department plans. as ap-
proved by Baker and the President,
would give the chief OF Staff and the
general staff almost absolute control
over the Air Corps to utilize it as an
integral part of the Nations war ma
chine The Air Corps now is semi
independent. responsible only to the
Secretary of War.

Within the next few weeks Presi-
dent Roosevelt is going to give an
other accounting of his stewardship
to the American people,
In making this known at his home
here today Mr. Roosevelt said he
wants to acquaint the country at
large with Just what has been going
on and what the prospects are. He
said he will deliver this accounting
from the White House over Nation
wide radio hook-up, but he is not
yet certain as to the date.
When pressed for some idea as to
the time and his subject, the Presi-
dent said he really doesn't just know
when he will make this talk, or what
he is going to talk about, other than
''to give an accounting"
He said his talk would not be before
October l and probably would be in
"a few weeks"
Mr.. Roosevelt recalled that it was
Just about this time last year that he
gave a similar accounting. and he
supposed" it would be good idea tc

~ NE Of the pet private peeves
of this administration is Hit
Ter. The men higher up in
~ the State Department, and
even the White House, are
thoroughly against Der Fuehrer per-
sonally, politically and economically,
although they cannot say SO for Dip
lomatic reasons.
Only those very close on the in
side know, for instance. that the ex-
plosive remarks made by Gen. john
son some time back were not entirely
original with him. They reflected a
higher view. Also, the story has never
been told of how the State Depart
ment changed the wording Of the mes
sage of coincidence sent to Austria
after the killing of Dollfuss.
As written originally. the message
bluntly contained the word murder" "
The State Department scratched out
that word and substituted the milder
one, assassination" before the mes
sage was made public.
These facts are rather important

ner row being stirred up over German

The driftwood is considered partic-
ularly bad today because of the recent
downpours which have swept debris
into the tributaries Of the Potomac
River above Washington.
The race for the Presidents Cup
has drawn seven entries, the largest
field in several years.
The race will be run in three heats,
the first one today. and two to-
morrow at 2:40 and 4:05 pm. Each
of the three heats covers six laps Of
the course, or q total distance of Is
miles.
Heading the list Of entries Is the
veteran Gold Cup and Presidents Cup
driver, George c. Refs of Lake George.
N Y, who again will be at the wheel
of his sleek El Lagarto. Refs is going
to the line as defending champion,
having taken the cup from fast field
on the same course last year. Refs
already has a national victory to his
credit this year in the Gold Cup race,
held at Lake George August Z.
Great interest is attached to Aaron
De Roys Hornet, which will race as
G-36. Hornet formerly was Delphine
vi of the Dodge fleet and last year
was in the Presidents Cup event here
under the name Ethyl Ruth. Last
year she set course record of So miles
per hour for the Presidents Cup
course, but was forced out by me-
chanical trouble.
The Jay Dee, owned by Jack Dunn
Of Miami and racing as Go, has had
the most recent rebuilding Of all the
older Gold Cup hulls. She was built
in 1925 and first entered in the Presi-
dents Cup race as Neusance in 1925
by Mrs Delphine Cromwell, now Mrs.
Delphine Dodge Baker.
Delphine Nv, former holder of both
the Gold Cup and Presidents Cup,
will be raced this year as G-31 by the
| veteran William Horn of Newport
News, Va.
Another interesting boat will be
Miss Saranac, G-3. formerly El Lagar-
tito, designed and built for Refs as
| the successor to his FL Lagarto. She
.
1880 at Red Bank, N. j., and placed
third with best heat speed of 54.o8
miles per hour. She has been bought
and entered this year by Edmond
! Guggenheim of Roslyn Estates, Long
Island. Bob Purdy will drive.
The veteran Arctic Tern II, bearing
the race number Clio, will be back
this year as the entry of E. T. Chase
of Baltimore. She first was owned by
William Wrigley, jr., then by John
| Shibe and last year by Armand Pugh.
Last month Chase took the Gold Cup
race at the silver jubilee of the Mary
land Yacht Club at the wheel Of
! this boat.
Shibe has entered new Ethyl Ruth
| this year and she will race as CT.
She was built by John Hacker and
is of unusual design. Powered with
a Miller engine, she is regarded as q
dark horse in this, her first major race.
| Another boat which will be familiar
to the Presidents Cup followers Of
last year is Louisa, to be raced as
, G-23 by John M. Rutherford Of Palm
Beach, Fla, with his wife as mechanic.

engine since last year.
