A leaping sea of fire which raced

Der last night and threatened a
score of farm homes apparently
was Nunder control today.
Seven hundred men, battling
with backfires through the night,
surrounded the huge blaze with
circle of bare ground. Leaders of

lieved that only an unusually
strong wind could undo their
work.
The fire swept several miles
through the forest across a wide
front, gaining such Roadway that
men from a half dozen nearby
towns were drafted to fight it last
night. Trees and underbrush dried
to finder by six weeks of drought
famed like powder, with sparks

credited by Detective Chief Fred

Police last night were notified
that Mrs. Cox and her husband,

daughter missing nine years,
"thumbed" ride with Negro
truck driver. who, it originally was
reported. forced Mr.. Cox from the
truck and drove away with Mrs.

Peters supporters and others OPP
posed to the state administration
made bid for organization power
IN the primary, although Peters this
week issued a statement in which
he declared he is interested only in
the senate nomination and does not
seek party control.
Results of the district reorganiza-
tons make virtually certain the
election as state chairman of Omer
Jackson, Greenfield. Jackson is the
choice of both Senator Frederick
Van Mugs and Governor McNutt
and is not even opposed by the
Peters faction.
Other officers scheduled for cleo
ton are either Mrs. Alta Sembower.

Scholl, Connersville, as vice-chair-
man in place of Mrs. A. P. Flynn.
LoganSport, and retention of Keith
Johns as secretary. No decision has
been made on the treasurer, it is
reported.
Jackson will succeed DR.. Carleton
B. McCulloch, who became chair
man last fall when Peters was
ousted. DR.. McCulloch has ex-
pressed desire to retire to devote
himself to business.
Ketchum Is Elected
The district reorganizations &C
tually were contests in only the
Tenth and Second districts. Green
lee went to the convention in the
Tenth, his home district, and sue
ceeded in electing Anderson
Ketchum, state tax board secretary,
as chairman.
ketchum won over John Day De-
PREF, Shelbyville editor, who has
been bitter in his fight against
Gmenlee in their joint home town
of Shelbyville.
In the second, the administration
forces defeated the veteran Tom
Mcconnell, Fowler, who was a
Peters adherent, and in his place in
stalled Lawrence Corey, Monticello
editor.
Third district results are disputed.
There, Mayor William Krau, Elk
hart, the chairman, adjourned the
meeting until tomorrow when St..

Sentatives did not arrive on time.
The four from these counties held a
meeting not attended by the Elkhart
county group.
Meeting to Be Saturday
Rudolph Alderman, South Bend,
and Mrs. Lizzie Ginning, Michigan
City, were elected chairman and

They were told the election prob
