The children eloped last Thursday and since then police in all parts of the state have been searching for them. The girl was dressed in boy’s cloth ing and when they applied for a marriage license Friday they were turned down on account of the girl’s mode of dress and apparent age. They finally sold the remains of flO worth of groceries they had taken with them from Davenport for their honeymoon camp, for just enough money to pay railroad fare back to their homes. LOEB OFFERS TO TURN ON “PAL” Youth Willing to Tell Story Of Slaying to Escape Gallows BY JACK LAIT, Famous Short Story Writer and Playwright. (Copyright, 1924) Chicago, June 8.—Dick Loeb, one of the confessed slayers of little Bobby Pranks, is anxious and ready to “crawfish." He Is willing now to turn state’s evidence against Nathan Leopold, his satanlc influence and unquestionably the captain of the kidnap-and-klU conspiracy. It may be authoritatively stated that overtures have been made to this end, though they have not yet reached State’s Attorney Crowe be yond unofficial advices to him that such a move is being felt out. The Intermediary is not acting di rectly for Albert Loeb, the father of the accomplice whom Leopold sneer lngly dubbed “weakling.’’ But the emissary Is both a blood relative and a man of vast influence. He has communicated with a man publicly but not authoritatively con nected with the case. Would Take "Jolt” And his proposition Is this: He offers to plead Dick Loeb guilt and accept a long term In the peni tentiary (not In an insane asylum) even to a life sentence, if the state will pledge itself not to ask the gal lows for Loeb; that Loeb will, in that event, "come clean” on the stand as a witness either for himself in a Joint trial or against Leopold in sep arate trial. The bait is the certainty that the confsslons will be bitterly and per haps successfully fought out of testimony. With Loeb baring every thing to a Jury he could testify not only to every minute detail of the facts, but to Leopold’s attitude, the look in his eyes, the sound of his voice, the side remarks, etc., all non essential against any defense except the one which Leopold will assuredly Introduce—Insanity. Heretofore the public, and, uncon sciously even the authorities, have linked the two boys as they have their two names—Yeopold and Loeb, Loeb and Leopold—without hesitat ing in the unceasing pressure of new developments hourly to Fpeculate on what might eventuate if the two are separated. Two souls with but a single interest, a mutual peril, the same attorneys, yes; but what if that status were sundered? May Dodge Asylum Loeb, sitting in his cell apart from the “stimulus” of the dominant Leo pold, has had wretched, writhing hours in which to think it over, "on the Inside looking out.” His gravely ill father, hig torture* mother, his family friends and kin, have each been given sleepless, Intensive thought. The best that the defenders of Dick Loeb may expect if he battles to the extreme possibilities of any form of legal resistance, is a life term in a madhouse, probably a peni tentiary for criminal Insane. Would it not be leas horrible, they reason, to have him confined for the same endless term in a penitentiary with sane felons? While thore is life, oven though the full tenure of It has been sen cnced off by law, there Is hope. Years afteward, if Loeb is confined to an asylum, a Jury of experts may find and swear that he has recovered and may safely be freed. By that time a new generation of prosecutors, executives and “the public” will be in power. The bay of indignation will have ceased to echo. The Loebs will still be rich and influential. State*# Attorney Crowe will con fer Monday with the man to whom the proposition was conveyed He will, undoubtedly, he reluctant to consider It GUNDERSON TAKES UP NEW FARMER MOVEMENT. Mitchell. S.

Washington, June 8.—President Coolldge, as head of the executive department of the government, will put the provisions of the adjusted compensation law In operation im mediately, despite the failure eX con gress to provide the necessary funds. This was made plain at the White House Sunday. The president, It was stated, would, if necessary, issue an executive order authorising the creation of a deficit to carry out the administrative features of the meas ure. It is estimated that about $4. 600,000 will be required. Since the Senate held up the gen eral deficiency bill carrying the $132, 000,000 bonus fund. President Cool ldge has Indicated to friends that, ' while he was opposed to the bonus bill originally, now that it Is a law of the land he will see that It Is made ef fective. He opposed a delay In car rying out Its provisions through a technicality. In the meantime heads of the execu tive branches of the government are busy trying to find a quick and ef fective way out of the difficulty with out appealing to the president for an executive order. Officials of the bureau of tihe budget and other departments charged with administering the law are trying to work out some way In which the present available funds, restricted to meet only the most urgent needs of the various government department* can be used to tide over the gap be tween now and the assembling of congress In December. DAKOTANS TO BACK JOHNSON Delegation Will Not Mounf Coolidge Bandwagon at Cleveland BY RICHARD KINGSLEY, Tribune Special Correspondent. Cleveland, Ohio, June 8.—(Special) —South Dakota refuses to climb on the Coolidge bandwagon and will vote solidly for Hiram Johnson, United States senator from California, when it comes their turn to ballot for the presidential nominee of the repub lican party here this week, according to a statement Issued here Sunday by S. X. Way, delegate at large for South Dakota. Mr. Way said that the people of South Dakota had named the Cali fornia senator as their choice In the primaries, and although Johnson has since released the South Dakota dele gates, they will stick with him to the finish. Mr. V/ay said that the delegation felt that) they had no alternative than to express the wish of the peo ple of South Dakota from the floor of the convention, and therefore they must cast their ballots for Hiram Johnson. As all Indications at this time point to the fact that President Coolidge will be nominated on the first ballot,' the South Dakotans Intend to remain steacVast in their refusal to board the Coolidge bandwagon. Congressman L. J. Dickinson of the Tenth Iowa district. Is waging an active campaign here for the vice oresldential nomination and will orobably carry his fight to the floor of the convention. Whether he will be graduated from the "favorite son" ’lass to that of a real contender by the time the balloting starts, could oot he lea mod. If seems probable that he may line up the 'South Dakota and Nebraska delegations In his favor. However, statements along these lines could not ha secured Sunday. The lobby of every leading hotel !n Cleveland Is placarded with the slogan, "Iowa Offers Dickinson for Vice President,” and the backers of the Iowa congressman are clrculat !ng much literature in his behalf. National Committeeman Cook of South Dakota, refused to commit himself regarding the South Dakota delegation hacking the Dickinson boom in the convention. He refused to comment at all on the vice presl lent.'al race. Dickinson backers are making an effort to line up the South Dakota and Nebraska delegations and re garding this much a spirit of opti mism prevails at Iowa headquarters.

Lowden, war governor of Illinois, an nounced Sunday night, lie is not a candidate for vice president and will not accept the nomination if tender ed him by the Cleveland republican national convention. Here is Colonel Lowden’s state ment: "1 am not unmindful of the Import ance of the high office of vice pres ident. However, since my retire ment from public office, three years ago, I have become deeply Interested in many farmers’ organizations. As a result of my own experience in farming I am convinced that agri culture must he organized if it is to go forward successfully in this mod ern organized world. I am giving a great deal of my time to these various organizations and if I continue to do so I am assured by those most com petent to speak that I shall be rend ering a real service to the agricultur al interests of the country, and there fore to the country as a whole. If I were to step aside now, my associ ates in at least two of the organiza tions of which I am the head believe that it would seriously cripple the work of those organizations. Of course, I appreciate to the full the high honor my friends would confer upon me.I have been deeply moved by their expressions of confidence ! and good will and it is hard for me to disappoint thme. but * must. “I have given my most careful con sideration to the question of where my duty lies and 1 have been forced to the conclusion tha I can be of more service to the country througn the activities in which I am now en gaged than I could be as vice presi dent. I have, therefore, said to every one who has approached me upon the subject that I could not accept the nomination, even if It were tendered me. I must adlhere to this resolution ” ■ • ■ FUER PLANS NEW ATTEMPT TO CROSS CONTINENT IN DAY Universal Service Mltchel Field, L. I., June 8.—Lieut. Russell L. Maughan, U. S.
