SM.rB.lu,f’ ■ ■ ' Demos Fear La Follette BryanTrade Apprehension Over Reports That Governor and Brother About to Let Down Davis. Working for Presidency Dispatches from Washington con earning a reported coalition between Charles W. Bryan, William J. Bryan ind Tat Follette, are causing much ap prehension among Nebraska demo crats. The reports charge that La Follette is refusing to countenance state tickets in the various states so that he can use the situation for trades. The Wisconsin senator open Jy states that he does not expect to be elected. He planp only to carry enough states to keep President Cool idge from winning n majority, thus ttuowing the selection of the presi dent into the house of representatives ind the selection of the vice presi dent into the senate. This openly declared program would not capse worry among Nebras ka democrats were it not for the well known tactics of William J. Brynn, and particularly Charles W. Bryan, who is giving up his candidacy for governor of Nebraska to be candidate for vice president. La Follette—Interested only In pre venting Cooiidge from getting a ma jority of the electoral votes.. Chnrles W, Bryan—interested in the same outcome, and quietly mak ing trades with La Follette to that end, aided and abetted by W. J. Bryan. Beat Hltclicock With Trade. This is the situation that is upset ting the democrats, not only in Ne braska hut ail over the country'. ( Charles W, Bryan has made a repu tation in Nebraska as a trader. This reputation is just now beginning to rink into the consciousness of John W. Davis, candidate for president, and the managers of ths Davis cam paign. if the Bryan-La Follette scheme goes through and I.a Follette gets nough votes to prevent the selection ■f Cooiidge,- Bryan will he In the fore front—not as a vice presidential can ■ Hr,ate, hut as the almost certain se 1 -< tion of the senate to b» vice presi dent. The house is deadlocked. I,a Follette is in position to prevent a •election for president, by the house. Thus by default, Bryan, as vine presi dent, would become president on March 4, next. Charles W. Bryan's history in Ne braska politics has always been one of looking out for himself. Loyalty to the democratic ticket is a virtue that he does not understand. Former Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock is the most conspicuous example of Bryan's trading ability, and too, of Bryan's ex pertness as a trader. The trading which swept Hitchcock out of the senate was carried on under the cloak of harmony, Nebraska being filled with "harmony clubs" during that election. Has K,ve on While House. Bryan, argue those Nebraska dem ocrats who are worried over the out look, has his eyes on the presidency. The fact that such a scheme would mean disloyalty to Davis, It is urged, docs not worry Bryan any more than did disloyalty to Hitchcock In 1922. Here then is the situation that Is bringing chilis to democrats through out the country—Bryan, with his eyes on the presidency. Is said to be . laying his lines to win the favor of ^ La Follette, helping him carry Ne braska and al lother states in which he can make a trade. If this scheme carries and Is suc cessful, it will mean that Cooiidge, though getting the largest number of states, will not have a majority. The full plans of the conspiracy will {hen come out. La Follette, through his followers in the house, will deadlock that body and prevent the selection of a president. Meantime, in the son (Turn to Page Seven, Column Three.)

Lakehurst, X. J., Aug 17.—The naval dirigible Shenandoah, which left here Friday morning to join the Atlantic fleet in maneuvers off the coast, returned to its station early today and was moored to its mast at 4:fl5 a. m. The vessel was in com mand of Commander Lansdowne. The Shenandoah, acting as scout for a flotilla of destroyers, was as signed to the extreme southern field of the maneuvers, which brought it to a point 150 miles north of Ber muda, according to its commander. Throughout Friday sight and all day Saturday the Shenandoah cruised over a wide area, 300 to 500 miles off the coast, in search of the “enemy," the "enemy" being four bat tleships carrying the midshipment on their summer cruise and en route from Kngland to Annapolis. It was not until 8:30 last night, however, that the “enemy" was sighted, 75 miles off the Delaware breakwater. Word was flashed to the destroyers, which succeeded In theoretically de stroying one battleship. The Shenandoah left Lakehurst at 11:35 a. m. Friday and returned to port at 2:40 this morning, establish ing a new record for length of time in the air. It had traveled approxi mately 1,300 miles and still had more than two days’ supply of fuel aboard when it reached here. CAT NEAR DIVINE, SAYS PROFESSOR Paris, A ter. 17.—The nearest np proach to divinity existing on earth is not man, nor woman, hut—the cat. So says Prof. Leplnay, famous vet erinarian, who devotes every Thurs day at the srhool of psychology to a lecture on the psychology of cats. "The cat Is an enigma." declared Lepinay In an interview. "Capricious. Independent, suddenly resenting that vhlch apparently pleases them the most, seeking flattery anil then free lug the flatterers, they do not pos si ss the qualities of the dog, which by attaching hitnself to man has ac quired many of his faults. "If dlvinty lies in complete Inde pendence of nature, which tve may accept as a good definition, 'hen the cat comes nearer to being divine than does the human animal, fnr through out the centuries the cat has never changed Its character."

Few Witnesses Are Left By Universal Nervier. Chicago, Aug. 17.—Tho monotony of the Franks case ought to he broken this week by arguments of the law yers. It was predicted today Judge John R. Caverly would have the fate of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb in his hands for a decision within a week. One of the big questions alienists have failed to agree upon is where does sanity end and insanity begin? Leopold and Loeb are "borderline” cases, according to alienists of the defense. In other words, the slayers of Robert Franks are not crazy, but still they are not mentally sound. Alienists retained by the state pro nounce them "normal and account aide for their acts.” Tho defense would like to prove that they are not normal. If sane the law says they may suffer the death penalty for their crime. If mentally deficient then the law says they must be sent to an asylum or some penal Institution. Dr. Harold Douglas Singer, state alienist, has been the most damaging witness yet Introduced by State's At torney Crowe to tear down the "dream world" built up by the de fense to save the young slayers. When court recessed yesterday Dr. Singer was undergoing a severe cross examination by Clarenre Darrow, the noted criminal lawyer, who Is direct ing the defense. Dr. Singer will go back on the stand when court con venes tomorrow morning. I'ses Plain English. Dr. Singer, author of "Insanity and the I,aw,'' and former alienist at the Illinois Insane Asylum St Kankakee and Elgin, explained sway in plain English the, highly profes sional descriptions of Leopold and Loeb as given by the defense alien ists. He showed where "Dickie’s" childish prattle to his Teddy Bear was a normal act, rather than evl dence of a deranged mentality. Little girls talk to their dolls, do they not? Why shouldn't "Dickie" talk to his Teddy Bear? Nothing strange about that, says Dr. Singer. And It was these quiet, Plain ex pianatlons and logical deductions that worried Clarence Darrow. "We will hear more shout that Monday," was Harrow’s threat when Dr. Singer answered one of his ques tions in a way that didn’t suit him just before court recessed yesterday. So tho battle of wits will be re sumed tomorrow between alienist snd the lawyer. It Is expected to con tinue most of the day and Dr. Wil liam H. Krohne, the state’s last re maining witness, may not go on the stand before Tuesday. Dr. Krohne Is expected to give tes tlmony along the lines given by T>r. Singer. He is expected to hold from his observations that Leopold and Loeb are perfectly sane and normal. Such testimony will pretty well shat ter the bulwark built up against the gallows by the defense. Youth Is Stressed. Crest stress Is to be laid on the youth of the defendants. If develop ments of yesterday are an Indica tion of Darrow's next move. Harrow brought forward the records of exe cution in Cook county dating back for a period of SO yeara to show that no person under 21 had been hanged on a plea of guilty. Loeb svaa IS and I,eopn|d Just post 19 when they kidnaped and killed Robert Franks la«t May. And they have both pleaded guilty to the crime. So If Judge Caverly should aentenre I hem to hang he would be aettlng a precedent. lie might find justification for a precedent, State's Attorney Crowe believes, because the youths have set a precedent In crime. Darrow Is known to he collecting statistics to show that nowhere In the United .Stale* at no time has s minor hem executed after pleading guilty. In early stages of the trial the dc fense attorneys wanted Judge Caver Iy to understand that their clients were so strangely constructed men tally that they did not know right from wrong snd thnt they had no emotions. Rut the .fallacy of this theory has been blasted right before he Judge's eyes. Loeb on Verge of Tears. Young Loeb haa been on the verge of tears several times when meeting friends, showing he has emotions, and Leopold, the Iron man, has given evl dence of It by his actions toward Htnto’s Attorney Urowe. Young Leopold is open In his hos tlllty toward the state's attorney. He has gone so far as to attempt physical violence. At every opportunity. In |in*sing the slates attorney, he Jabs at him with his elbows lie has heaped Imprecations on Crowe, some times his oaths have been heard about l he courtroom. Crowe served notice on Harrow yesterday that continuation of this conduit on the pail of young Leopold would result In soma action being taken on his part to stop II, | Girl, 23, Returned to Her Wealthy Parents Cinderella orphan they rail Jeanette King, 23, Orange, X.

Dawes Man of Hour as Peacemaker French Can Now Turn From War to Industry—German People Face Toward Sunrise. World Meet Is Possible ■Washington, Aug. 17.—There Is but one name on the lips of Americans to day, as the world stands in the light of the accomplishments at Dondon. That name Is Dawes—Charles G. Dawes. Often the question has been asked —what really big man came to the front, out of the war? There have been an many answers as there have been points of view—Foch, Smuts, Wilson. Foch still stands In the cen ter, because he still holds the sword of France. Smuts and Wilson, who stirred a mighty Idealism, have pass ed down and off the stage because their iderllsm did not fit the prob lems of a practical world. The war ended nearly six years ago, but peace did not come. The great men of the war were not great enough to bring peace. The question now Is—what really big man came to the front out of the making of peace? There is hut one answer—Dawes. Thus It is that Dawes’ name Is everywhere today on the lips of Americans. Yes, on the Ilius too of all the world, Ihnt has waited so many weary years for peace. Armies to Be Cut Down. In Germany they shoulder a heavy load, Uut In the carrying of It they are all faced In one direction. There is at last sunrise in that sorely perplex ed country, "fhe reparations are fin ally fixed—the method of payment is finally decided upon—the aid of the world in making those payment* Is finally assured. There Is to he a loan of Uon.OOO.OOfl. which Is to come largely from America. In Franc* the day upon which the sword of Foch will he sheathed, and the troops withdrawn from the Ruhr has been sgreed upon. The French people can now' give their attention to affairs of commerce end of In dustry. Plana can now he made for the cutting down of the huge stand ing army that has held Europe In fear since the armistice. Stag" Finally Set for Trace. The stag* t« finally set for peace and the whole world breaths easier. Because of all of these things the name of Dawes stands out as the really great name that la left as the heritage of the struggle that ha* kept Europe and the entire world, even America, In turmoil for so many years. Chalea O. Dawes—American busi ness man. Quiet. Talking only when there Is something to say and then saying It straight from the shoulder and In language all can understand. Modest. Going about his work without braggadocio. Democratic. Always ready to see those who seek him out and to give aid and counael when It la needed. Simple. Diving In a quiet home in the quiet old fashioned town of Evanston, III. The Dawes plan la to he the charter of‘conduct for Europe for the next generation. It is In truth the trestvof pence. On Its basis and under Its terms the people of Europe will move forward to a real pear* and an un derstanding that It is hoped will lav the foundation for the avoidance of war for all time. Dawes leader of Peace. The plana of President Coolldge for a world conference for the limitation of armament la made possible by the work of General Dawee. Thua hla name, written now Into the terms of European settlement, la destined sne dtsolved and the entire question submitted to the people for a vote, which it is felt will be carried. From Ambassador Kellopp to President Coolidpe: "International conference has reached an apreemnt assuring that Dawes plan will b* put into execution at early dates. It has been ar rhrvi at in the face of many difficulties and w-as possihle only by reason of the patriotic attitude and firm determination of all the allied and Ger man delegates. I believe it presages a period of tranquility and increased prosperity in European countries, the beneficial influence of which wil! be reflected throughout the world "The support you have given to the report of the experts' committee under the chairmansjiip of General Daws, the encouragement to the labors of the conference contained In jour public utterences and the suggestions you and the secretary of state have made have contribute ' definitely tn the successful outcome of the deliberations of the conference. "You will readily have appreciated the cordiality which has been manifested toward the Uniter] States and I believe that the country will welcome the warmer relationship with the nations of Europe, which, while avoiding the field of political commitments or the taking of sfdes in issues which do not concern us, will provide a better basis for common Economic effort and Increased happiness and prosperity for the men and women of all countries.” The President's Reply. "Messagereceived with great satisfaction.” the president said in his reply. "I congratulate you on your skill and success You hay* greatly contributed to the welfare of the world.” The president this afternoon expressed the opinion the conference re sult represented the most important accomplishment since the armistice, with the possihle exception of the Washington arms conference Uoolidge also was reported as believing there would be little difficulty In securing Trom private sources in this country the financial support nec essary rut the scheme into operation. - ... -- - - . . j Italian Flyer m Is at Reykjavik American Airmen Still Held There by Heavy Sea* it Angmag.«alik.
