SHIELDS DECLARES HURDER INTENDED Tells Buffalo Audience Des Battle Will ATTACKS 2 TRUSTEES Denies Any Attempt to ~ Make International 5 Issue of Fight Buffalo, May 15.--Dr. T. T. Shields, president of the board of trustees of Des Moines university, appeared unexpectedly at the open- ing session here last night of the seventh annual meeting of the Bap- tist Bible Union of North America and, taking the platform, Jaunched into a review of the situation that yesulted in the closing of the Fun- damentalists' university at Des Moines. It had been anmounced at the opening of last night's meeting that Dr. Shizlds would not be present, but would speak today. Dr. Shields was invited to the platform and was received with eeors. As tc difference of opinion be. @ween Canadians and Americans on the trustees bosrd, Dr. Shields declared such reports were grouna~ Jess, and decried any attempt w make an international issue of the matter. "The time is coming when all the nations will forget nationa! re- " Jationships in recognition of a com- mon Lord," he declared. '"Who- ever raised the cry of trouble be- tween British and Americans is no friend of mine," he added. "We are all one," he said. In speaking of Trustee Stevens, he said Stevens was taken on the board largely because he lived near Des Moines, and declared: "1 ad- vised Mr. Stevens he had better resign as all members must work to keep the university going." Miss Edith Rebman, secretary of the board of trustees of the uni- versity, supporter of Dr. Shields, failed to arrive, in time for the meeting. Minor Stevens, another trustee, who, Dr. Shields, declared las night in his speech, "was largely responsible for the trouble," ar- rived after the meeting with Dean Earl Callowy of the school. Dr. Shields declared he would debate before the convention the cause of the disturbance. pid Not Ask Resignations He branded as a falsehood the report he had demanded the re- gignation of seven members of the sehool faculty "as modernists." He sald the president of the hoard had no authority to dismiss anyone. Touching on the scenes during the egg throwing in the riot, he told the audience he was conviuc- od the instigators of the riot "in- tended murder," and he repeated former charges that Des Moines policemen failed to arrive on time to quell the row. "I am not sorry it happened. I think it will wake up America," Dr. Shields said. He said that he would say little about the affair last night, but he would "demand time to deal with facts later during the convention and give names and addresses of persons who had caused the trou- ble." University Remains Open Des Moines, Iowa, May 15.-- Court orders took precedence over personal directions yesterday as Des Moines University remained open pursuant to a temporary 1n- junction, despite renewed demands from the trustees that their clos- ing order be obeyed. . Although Dr. T. T. Shields of Toronto, President of the board, wired him yesterday that he would be held "personally responsible" for failure to obey the board's clos- ing order, Dr. Harry C. 'Wayman, President, said he had no recourse but to continue classes, in view of the court order. Meanwhile, the university stud- ents who egged and stoned the building where Dr. Shields and Migs Edith M. Rebman, Secretary of the board, took refuge following a board vote clearing them of charges of indiscretion, stood by peaceably awaiting further moves in the situation. Dr. Wayman denied a sugges- tion by Dr. Shields that he was us- ing degrees to which he was not FAILS T0 AROUSE (Continued from page 1) private ownership of railway wag- ons ought to be abolished. The Manchester Guardian is the only paper of wide circulation which this-morning discusses the general election as a nelection, confessing in the opening of its editorial that there is some, danger of the voters being led to suppose that apart from solving thé unemployment problem, a Liberal government would find time hanging on its hands. Open Air Meetings London, May 15.--Elliott Dodds, the Liberal eandidate in Halifax, is conducting open air meetings at the main point of the town lasting seven hours. x hocked by Poster Sir Thomas Inskip, the attorney- general, who is contesting Central Bristol against a Labor candidate, is shocked at an election poster be- ing exhibited in the city 'which says: "Baldwin feeds pigs and starves children." Sir Thomas takes ex: ception to "such slander that the Conservatives have been mniggardly looking after the people's health." Panegyric on Baldwin Sir Martin Conway, Conservative candidate for the combined English universities, issues » penegyric on Premier Baldwin in a classic vein: "He, like Varro after the battle of Cannas, did not despair of the re- public, but steadily preached the faith that it is by good relations between all classes, by kindlinuss, loyalty and hard work, that the evil of the time will be overcome and prosperity gradually return. ® Some May Vote Twice A certain proportion of women will have the opportunity of voting twice, like their husbands. Pro- fessional or business men with or- fices are given a vote for the same in addition to their residences. It married their wives may also exer- cise the vote in respect of their hus- band's offices. This was ordained under the latest representation act. SCORES KILLED IN EXPLOSION (Continued from page 1) the thousands of spectators of the fire by flames and smoke. Firemen said that unless those on the roof were rescued soon, they would perish and desperate ef- forts were being made to penetrate the flames enough to get a ladder to the roof and rescue those im- perilled there. The hospital was built in 1924. Dr. George W. Crile, its proprietor, is nationally known. He gajned a wide reputation for the relief of goitres. Clocks in the building were stop- ped at 11:35 a.m., indicating that the two explosions occurred at that time. The Earlier Report Cleveland, Ohio, May 15.--Fire- men said 30 persons were killed by an explosion and poison gasses that were liberated by the blast shortly after noon today at the Cleveland Clinic Hospital. At 12.15 p.m., it was estimated that fifty more patients were trap- ped in ghe roaring inferno of flames Pedestrians for a block around were reported gasping and dropping to the sidewalks, over- come by the gas. Twenty of the injured were tak- en to the Mount Sinal hospital where it was reported at least ten were in a serious condition. The Cleveland Clinic Hospital is operated by Dr. George H. Crile.

Scores of patients were taken from the wards and clinic rooms and rushed in ambulances to near- by hospitals. It was difficullt to determine whether some of them entitled. were dead or alive.

Shields Charge Denied Des Moines, Ia--Dr., H. S. Way- man, president of Des Moines Uni- versity, in a statement today said "there is no truth whatsoever" to reports "that the cause of the recent student riot was the fundamentalist- modernist controversy." While he did not place the cause definitely, the student discontent, he did say, resulted from the actions of Dr. Shields and Miss Edith M. Reb- man, president and secretary, res- pectively, of the board of trustees. Dr. Wayman's statement was in answer to charges by Dr. Shields that the school's president "threw himself into the arms of malcontents and tried to develop trouble for offi- cials who were trying to change the school from a liberal to a Christian institution." "There were no charges preferred against me or against any member of the faculty, nor was there any criticism of me, except 'by Dr. Shileds himself in his efforts to con- vince the board that there had been a conspiracy formed against him "I informed the board that I could not continue as president of the university because of. irregularities, The board did not question me about these irregularities which are, as I think, administrative irregularities, social and financial." An inmate of the Middleborough, England, workhouse, was arrest- ed recently for having conducted a football sweepstakes among the inmates.

The crowds cheered him continually. At the grandstand at Bognor a short halt was made while a mem- ber of the town council made a short address wishing his majesty God speed and a complete restora- tion of health, The king replied to him briefly.
