UP). While followers of Dr. Francis E. Town-tend, prophet of pensioned prosperity, rallied in a mammoth "reunion" at the Indiana fairgrounds Sunday afternoon to conclude their fourth national convention, revolt-ers against the Townsend leadership laid plans in a downtown hotel for an "independent" organisation. From a shaded platform, the 72 year old California physician exhorted his adherents, packed in the race track grandstand, to "go home and work for a Townsend congress in 1940." "Prospects of capturing congress next year are very bright," he said.

Paul Chase of Chicago, manager of the big rally, which was advertised as the "national annual reunion," estimated the crowd at between 10,000 and 12,000. See Defeat In Congress. Leaders of the insurgent movement, meanwhile, gave out a statement asserting, "the seizure by Dr. Townsend and his son of perpetual control of the cause insures positive defeat of the relief In congress," and announced they would hold a "national independent convention in some midwestem city" soon.

Detective Capt.

Chadek is held under a blanket charge of investigation, Green said. Chadek, Green related, told officers he got into an argument with his wife, in their basement after he returned from working on the house and that she grabbed a butcher knife and chased him around the furnace, once getting close enough to tear his shirt. He said he grabbed his 12 gauge shotgun and fired at close range, the shot striking her in the right 10 Calgarv S2 42! 'The Pas 60 48!

On that point, neither McNutt nor his ardent Indiana backers are 'on record. An event synchronizing with McNutt's arrival in San Francisco last week increased speculation in that connection. Atty. Gen. Frank Murphy of Michigan, whose recent speech making activities in many states aroused political interest, virtually took himself out of the 1940 race.

He told reporters he thought it would be a mistake for his party to name him on any ticket. This gave his utterance more weight than usually attaches to such announcements. There is very little doubt among political observers that Mr. Roosevelt would turn to the midwest for a running mate if again nominated.

With arrival of Philippine High Commissioner Paul V. McNutt in San Francisco, the next political big parade has started to move. Within 12 months both major parties will have named or will be in the midst of naming their 1940 presidential ticket. Of all those conceded any reasonable chance for the democratic nomination, McNutt is the only aspirant whose intentions in 1940 have been both well known and well advertised for some time. His Honolulu declaration of loyalty to President Roosevelt, in which he said he would support the president for a third term if he desired it, cleared up any lingering doubt on that point.

Yet it again raised speculation in Washington whctljer the former Indiana governor might not shift his amhitions to second place on a Roosevelt third term ticket, aiming at 1944 succession, in the event Mr. Roosevelt becomes a candi regular elimination now, con EXPLOSIVE BLONDE IS ON HER WAV TO stipation is relieved and I sleep well each night without any disturbances.
