DEMOCRAT TRIO
IS IGNORED BY
K0K0M0 LABOR
Pleas, Townsend, McKin-
ney Speak From Same
Rally Platform.
BY JAMES DOSS
Times Staf Writer

KOKOMO, Ind, April 22.-Fol-
lowers of the three Democratic
candidates for nomination for Gov
ernor today viewed as an anti-cli-
max the first meeting of the three
on the same platform here last
night.
Organized labor, piqued over the
passage of an anti-picketing ordin-
ance, drawn for Mayor DIN r. Holt
by County Chairman Kenneth
Shockley, stayed away from the rally
in large numbers. Mayor Holt and
Chairman Shockley were hosts to
the rally.
So Pleas Greenlee, E. Kirk Nc
Kinney. and Lieut.. Gov. M. Clifford
Townsend, the three candidates,
matched campaign promises for an
audience believed to contain q
minimum number of organized la
Dor members. Mayor Holt said 600
were present. Others said 400.
Labor Sends Protests
Each of the three gubernatorial
candidates received the following
telegram, signed by Russell Von-
cannon, secretary of Local Is, Ma
tional Brotherhood of Operative
Potters.
"The present city Democratic
administration controlled by Mayor
Holt and County Chairman Shock
ley is unfair to organized labor.
Local 26 can not support the DEM
ocratic Party as long as the anti
pjcketing ordinance is in force"
The three gubernatorial candi-
dates drew lots to see who should
speak first and Mr.. Greenlee got
the lead-off position. After outlin-
ing several points in his platform,
Mr.. Greenlee repeated his charges
that "McHaleism" is running the
Democratic Party in Indiana" and
he is trying to save it.
Il know people are saying that
'Greenlee is trying to wreck the
party" Mr.. Greenlee said, "but I'm
rot; am merely trying to save it
from bossism.
Townsend Ignores Challenge
Frank McHale and little group
of Darkroom bosses got together and
decided I couldn't run for Governor.
I was informed that state patronage
would be used against me and it has
been. State employees in state-owned
automobiles, operated at state ex-
pense, have been sent out to beat me.
Pressure was put on my friends
in the state administration who are
job holders. Only today, a fellow
from your county got let out be-
cause he was for me and I under
stand one of my friends in Gary has
been relieved of an auto license
branch managership.

ism into this campaign with re-
luctance and only after deciding

C. 0. P. SEEKS
WESTERN AID.
ACTION HINTS
Selection of SteiWer as
Keynoter Seen as
Peace Gesture.
BY MAX STERN
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, April 22.-The
selection of Senator Frederick
Steiwer of Oregan as G. o. P. key
noter Is being hailed here as a
gesture toward the ce-Republican
West.
This pleasant-voiced near Liberal
comes from the only Western state
that still has two Republican Sena-
tors. The New Deal has engulfed
the rest of the West, leaving Ore
gon an island.
The designation also is a gesture
to the younger Republicans, for
Steiwer, although So, is looked upon
as something more than a regular
He calls himself progressive, and,
indeed, his record is more liberal
than that of the Eastern bitter
enders.
He followed the Roosevelt New
Deal by voting for the Wagner La
Dor Act and the IVA and AAA
measures. He also has favored
measures looking to the Federal de-
velopment of the Columbia River.
This session he is fighting to pass
his amendment calling for the di-
rect election of Presidents, and an
other to prevent political appoin-
tees from attending party conven-
tons.
Leads Fight on Lobby Group
In the present session Senator
Steiwer has been made outspokenly
anti-Roosevelt. He led the fight on
the Black Lobby Committees drag
net subpenas, has attacked the re-
lief program, and viewed with alarm
the alleged undermining of the Con-
stitution. Although insisting on
economy in government and bal
anced Federal budget, he led the
fight for the soldiers bonus, and was
one of the bonus bill authors.
Tall, personable and popular, the
keynoter is an authentic
Westerner. Born, reared and edu-
Gated in Oregon, he has practiced
law in Portland for years. For three
years he was district attorney and
for one year a state Senator. He
enlisted and became a lieutenant of
artillery in the World War. He is
serving his second term in the
Senate.
There is some talk that he may be
the Republican nominee for Vice
President.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1936-04-22

that it was better to clean this
thing up in the primary than to
wait until the fall election and let
the opposition do it.
Regardless of who the candidate
is III the fall, he is on the spot if
he bears the brand of 'McHale-
ISM"
Mr.. Townsend followed Mr..
Greeniee and failed to accept the
challenge which some observers saw
in Mr.. Greenlee's concluding re-
mark.
Instead, the Lieutenant Governor
dwelt at length on achievements of
the national and state administra-
tons. He said he was not insistent
on having personal platform, but
would be content with that to be
drafted by the state convention
committee.
Mr.. Mckinney batted in the clean
up position. He enumerated the 10
platform points in his announce
ment of candidacy, including divorce
of liquor and politics, reform of
some phases of the gross income tax
law and changes in the state adj
ministration patronage setup.
He said he is candidate without
the backing of any faction.
Six delegate states in Marion
County wards were on file today.
They backed Pleas Greenlee for the
Democratic nomination as Cover
nor.
States were filed by the Marion
County Greenlee-for- Governor
Club, headed by Russell j. Dean,
and by the Roosevelt New Deal
Democrats under the leadership of
Municipal Judge Wilfred Brad
shaw.
RICHMOND, Ind, April 22.-The
Indiana Democratic administration
was attacked here last night for
using its political control patronage
in state institutions. Glen r. Hills,
Kokomo, Republican candidate for
the gubernatorial nomination, made
the attack before the Earlham Col
lege Republican GLIB.

The carbide lamps on their hats
threw weird shadows on the dank,
mouldy walls. They proceeded cau-
tiously along the sloping shaft, be-
lieving that all they had to do was
to continue walking to reach the
141-foot level. But they had prog
ressed but 20 feet when the wall of
slate blocked them. Several of the
miners, all belonging to the hard
bitten brotherhood of coal and gold
miners in Nova Scotia's unyielding
terrain, were so disappointed that
tears cut white lines down their dust
and undiscovered faces.
Courage Comes Back
But a few minutes later their
courage was back, and they attacked
the slate with a will. 1t was much
easier than the rock they already
had tunneled through. At midnight,
when the shifts were changed, those
who came out of the hell hole we're
convinced the end was near.
The rescuers fought, too, the pos-
sibility of a cave-in. The shaft,
dangerous even under good condi-
tions, has been abandoned so long
that its original timbering has rot
ted away 1t has been retimbered
as the tunneling progressed, but
hastily. The danger of a cave-in
that might bury as many as 20 men
alive always was present.
Approximately 100 miners, recruit
ed from coal mines and gold mines
scattered over the countryside,
worked in short shifts. Between
shifts they slept three to the bed
in the 12-bed bunk house. Govern
ment trucks were out looking for
more experienced miners, but it was
believed that all within easy dis
tance had been brought here.
The miners, largely of Welsh and
English antecedents, performed he
roically with no other wish for re-
ward than freeing the miserable
men. But the Canadian Red Cross
was raising a fund with which to
reward them more substantially.
Around the surface end of the
communications pipe were G. H.
Ivey, Robertson's brother-i n-law,
and his business associates. He and
Magill, a Toronto lawyer, had pur-
chased the abandoned mine, plan
ming to reopen it. With Scadding
they went down into it Easter Sun
day and were trapped.

CHARGES COFFIN
BACKS PETITION
BookWaIter Claims Plea
Was Circulated by odd
Organization

John H. Bookwalter, candidate
for Marion County G.. 0. P. chair
man, today charged a petition of
precinct committeeman favoring
Frederick E. Schortemeier, former
Secretary of State, is Coffin
controlled
Mr.. Bookwalter, backed by the
Marion County Republican Reor-
ganization Committee, said the Pc
tition was circulated by ward chair
men of the "old organization"
who believes" he asked, that
Mr.. Coffin ever would back a can
didate for county chairman he did
not believe he could control or uSe?"
Schortemeier Makes Reply
Mr.. Schortemeier, informed of the
statement, said:
IT have not reached a conclusion
on the Craftsmanship. I do not care
to be county chairman, but if named
I would be free from entanglements.
People who know me know that I
never have been controlled by any
one and that never will be con-
trolled. I would have but one de-
sire, to serve the best interests of
the party"
The petition urging Mr.. Schorte-
meier's candidacy was filed yester-
day with Edwin Mcclure, G. o. P.
County Committee secretary. 1t car
ried the names of BOT of the 1923 Re-
publican precinct committeeman,
Mr.. Mcclure said. He added that
1913 of the 2O4 precinct committee
men who are unopposed in the
primary signed it.
Mr.. Bookwalter said: "This petit
ton, circulated by those whose po-
litical position is known by Repub-
licans and Democrats alike, is con-
elusive that a reorganization is i'm
perative if Republican voters are to
have any voice in the management
of their party"

CONTINUED From Page one)

John T. Askren, indianapolis, de
rected the conferences.
Youth centers for vocational
training and instruction in the use
of leisure time were urged by Mr..
StetSon.
IF President Roosevelt's proposal
to limit employment to men and
women between the ages of Is and
IS is carried out, youth centers, or
something similar, will be even more
necessary" Mr.. Stetson declared.
School Problem Greater
There is a tendency to keep chill
dren in school until they are 18'to-
day, and this creates problems for
the educator. There is the problem
of what to do with them and where
to put them after they have been
graduated from high school. Spe-
officially, in Indianapolis this ten
dency has meant increased enroll
ment, and increased enrolment has
resulted in overcrowding.
Increased vocational training and
training in the proper use of leisure
time would feature these youth CEN
tiers, which would be somewhat like
Junior colleges. Perhaps the first
and second year of college work
could be offered.
In rural districts, one center
could be set up for every one or two
counties, depending on population.
They should be kept open day and
night, seven days week, so that the
youth of the community could make
the greatest possible use of them.
Shops, gymnasiums, home making
centerS, facilities for the formation
of bands, debating teams and many
other recreational and educational
activities should be included"
Stresses High Standards

a banquet tonight at the Claypool

 Council Tonight

Tonight is the regular meeting night for the Nome City Council but vague signs of increasing tem peratures in civic ranks today led to remarks being passed that there would be a hot time in the old council meeting tonight.
 Exactly what business will be brought up to shorten tempers and increase attendance is un- known, althou it was declared that the subject of labor on the new school building would be dis cussed by at least one council man.
 The meeting is due to convene at PM, the regular time, and of course, a large attendance of citizens is always expected these days.

Nome Democrats Prepare to Start
 Fall Campaign

The Democratic Club of Nome, Sunday afternoon took the initial step in the 1886 campaign for the fall election to be held Tuesday, September 9th.
 The important item of business to occupy the attention of the members assembled, said some officials was the appointment of several committees, including one to formulate a local platform in conformity with the national and territorial platform already in force turnout Alaska.
 A strong fight will be made, said democratic committeeman to elect a straight democratic ticket this fall, and to bring about this effect, numerous committees will be busy during the next few days assembling the proper informa- ton and preparing to commence a publicity campaign leading up to the September 9th election.
 The excellent democratic vote evidenced in the primary election was commended and efforts to increase that vote will occupy the attention of all democratic club officials during the next two months, it was stated.
