Tragic Drowning Of Two Year Old In City Cisterna
James Arthur Tedrow, two year old son of Mr and Mrs Arthur Tedrow, drowned in a cistern behind the State Street home this morning. Firemen fought for nearly two hours with artificial resuscitation methods and heart stimulants from Dr R W Hancock, all to no avail. The cistern, about nine feet deep and filled with water, had been lightly fenced until recently but the cover was removed for work and the child is believed to have fallen in after removing the wooden cover. The body was recovered by uncle Mary Tedrow with a rake. He is survived by parents and three grandparents, and the funeral home is Sudro's with arrangements pending.

Bonus Forges Third Party Threat In Washington
June 20 the Bonus Expeditionary Force warned it may back a third party or form a new one unless the Democrats pledge immediate payment of 2.4 billion in bonuses. The veterans’ committee sent telegrams to Democratic candidates seeking views on the bonus and veterans’ legislation. Harold Foulkrod of Philadelphia heads the drive, now in Chicago, aiming for a bonus plank in the Democratic platform. Republicans rejected the plank and the group considers a general veterans platform including repeal of the 18th Amendment. Commander Walter Waters may drop prohibition issues to keep focus on the bonus.
