BELLEFONTAINE, O., Jan. 25.-
One voice in the muffled harmony

was stilled by death today.
John Mills, 25. basso. oldest Of
four Negro brothers whose low
rhythm carried them to the top in
the entertainment world in less than
four years, died at the home of his
mother, Mrs. Eathei Mills Jackson,
here. His illness resulted from a

in London.
John and his brothers, Donald,
Herbert and Harry, were incompar-
able in their speciality of initiating
musical instruments and injecting
twists of soft harmony, blended with
pleasing effect.
When John died in the attractive
home he had provided for his moth
er, the other three brothers were
appearing in Philadelphia. Their
father, John ST., has been taking
the ailing brothers place and prob
ably will continue.

Five Dead in State

The 24-hour death toll of In
diana's cold wave stood at five today
as higher temperatures relieved
suffering and revived transportation
and business activity.
The rise in temperatures was &C
companied by a snow fall through
out the state last night, but most
highways were expected to remain
open to cautious travel.
Hilbert G. Cox, Columbus, O., was
killed here late yesterday, when his
automobile skidded into the path of
an Indiana Railroad car.
Mrs. Mary Shiels, 81, was burned
fatally as she huddled over an open
fire at her farm home near Bloom
ington.
Woman Found Frozen
Miss Jessie Williamson, SO, was
found frozen to death in her Fort
Wayne home.
Dale Emerson Taylor, 8, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Taylor, Shell
byville, died from pneumonia, in
duced by the cold.
Mrs. Kate Hart, 81, Brimfield,
Noble County, died at a neighbor's
home yesterday after she had been
carried from her burning house by
John McMeans, so, who suffered
critical burns.
Mrs Hart was seized with hys-
terra when trapped by the fire and
fought off McMeans' rescue at
tempts.
Trains From East Late
The last of school children and
motorists marooned in farm houses
and school buildings because drift
ing SHOWS blocked the highways
were rescued yesterday.
Although traction lines are run
ming on schedule today, trains from
the East were one hour late at
Union Station, Indianapolis.
Ohio River craft was tied up today
at Madison where ice formed on the
river. State roads were being opened
for through traffic.
Utilityswires, snapped by the sub
zero temperatures, were repaired

MASS SUICIDE
HINT PRObEDIN
DEATHS OF II.
Father May Have Deliber-
ately Stalled Car; Girl, 5,
Is Sole Survivor.

By United Press
FORT WAYNE, Ind, Jan. 25.-
The theory that distraught father
deliberately stalled his automobile
in the path of a speeding passenger
train, killing himself, his wife and
nine children, was investigated by
authorities today.
Coroner Walter E. Kruse would
make no comment on the mass sui
eide theory, but it was known he
was investigating such a possibility.
Five-year-old Phyllis Mcbride to-
day was the only surviving member
OF the family. She was injured
critically.
Newly Born Infant Killed
The father, Marion Mcbride, 43, a
WPA worker, his wife, Susan, 40.
five of their children and an infant
born at the time of the crash late
yesterday were killed outright. Two
children died en- route to a hos
pital and another died last night
without regaining consciousness.
The body of the newly born in
FAINT was found $50 feet from the
mangled form of the mother. The
baby was expected to have been
born normally within a few days.
The Mcbride family, packed close
ly in 10-year-old car, was return
ing from the funeral of William
Conner, brother of Mrs. Mcbride,
at the time of the crash. The
poverty stricken family had been
living in a chicken coop on q farm
ers property near Leo and mad suf-
fered in the intense cold Of the past
few days.
Buys Candy for Children
Mcbride stopped at a store at
Grabill, 200 feet from the tracks, to
buy candy for his children. Then
he started the old car, stopped once
and had just reached the crossing
when the motor went dead.
George King, station agent, who
witnessed the tragedy from his plat
form a few yards away, said:
Mcbride halted the car SO feet
from the tracks with a clear view
of the right-of way. Why he did so
I do not know, but he started his
car forward despite the fact that
the train already was bearing down
on the crossing, and reached the
tracks simultaneously with the loco
motive"
w. E. Rowley of Fort Wayne, en-
gineer of the Wabash passenger
train, said the car came on the
tracks just as he blew a warning
whistle.
Girl Carried HOO Feet
The car was demolished and bits
of wreckage and bodies, were strewn
along the tracks for several hundred
feet.
Five-year-old Phyllis, the only
survivor, was caught in fold of
the automobile body, thrown onto
the cow-catcher of the locomotive
and carried HOO feet.
The children killed were: Clara,
IA; Marion Jr., IL; Mary 10; Ar
thur, 8; Virginia, 6; Robert, 3, and
Richard and Ramona, 17-months-
old twins.
Mrs. William Conner, sister-in-
law of Mrs. Mcbride, escaped death
when she decided at the last mo-
ment not to accompany the family
She had originally planned to go
along and aid Mrs. Mcbride with
the birth of her tenth child.

INDIANAPOLIS-The American
Liberty League has opened head
quarters in this city to batter at the
New Deal, and undoubtedly will give
comfort to the still disorganized Re-
publican machine in its attempt to
wean the states ID electoral votes
from Roosevelt in November.
Entrance of the DaviS-Smith- RaS-
kob-Eu Pont organization into the
Indiana fight helps to define the
line of battle which will find big
business, industrial and banking in
terests arrayed against the ordinary
wage-earner. Farmers will be found
in both camps.
Like all generalities, however, this
division is not entirely accurate
Party tradition is perhaps stronger
in this state than in any other.
Democrats and Republicans are
born that way. Party loyalty, in
many cases, outweighs personal
prejudice.
F. ID. r. Victory Was Earthquake
President Roosevelt's $4,000 ma
jority in 1882 was a political earth
quake and hardly will happen again,
for the drift noticeable elsewhere has
set in here. The state assumes the
doubtful cast which has always
dramatized it in presidential cleo
lions.
But a canvass indicates that the
President still holds the state and
should hold it in November. Re-
publicans privately give themselves
"a chance" This chance depends
good deal, their strategists say,
upon how much money they can
throw into this and other large
cities.
The Democrats strength lay in
the cities in the 1884 congressional
elections, when the party majority
was cut to 10000. They lost in the

One is the feud within the Dem

a nominee to succeed Gov. McNutt,

Passage of Bonus Certain to

in Capital.

bU tHitcG Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Con-
gressional leaders are confident be-
yond doubt today that the $2,237,-
100000 veterans cash-bond bonus
bill will be voted into law next week
over President Roosevelt's veto and
without taxes to bear the cost.
But a 1886 tax bill of some kind
appears to be on the way. Tax
payers are vitality interested in
who is going to pay new levies.
Politicians are concerned about who
shall assume responsibility for add
ing to the tax burden few months
before the nation elects a President,
one-third of the Senate and 435
members of the House
The House overrode the bonus
veto yesterday by a vote of 324 to
81. The Senate probably will vote
Monday. Only a political miracle
could interpose now between the
veterans and their bonus.
Proposals that it pe paid with
printing press money or profits TO
be created from government pur-
chaSeS of silver or seizure of gold
have been revived. They are not
taken seriously.
Republicans and Democrats In
Congress refuse to take the initiative
en- new taxes.
Political strategists believe, how
ever, that Mr.. Roosevelt could de-
mand bonus taxes from Congress
without reaping all of the popular
resentment additional levies would
invite. Congress is responsible for
the bonus expenditures. The Pres
ldent has repeatedly repudiated the
immediate cash bonus payment.

In Buffalo, only one of SO normal
