Nine Killed in Crash
Of Bus, Electric Train
GRANITE CITY, 111., March 20.
OP) Nine persons were killed
and 16 were Injured today to a
bus-train collision which could
not have happened a second or two
later.
An Intercity bus almost had
cleared the last rail of a grade
crossing at the moment a last Illi
nois terminal electric train sent It
whirling top-like, smashed its front
on the rebound and rammed its
shattered chassis between two
rows of telephone poles.
All the dead and 14 of the In
jured were on the bus. Two train
passengers were Injured slightly,
although the three-car Interurban
remained on the tracks and con
tinued its run after a slight delay.
Fragmentary descriptions
brought forth the scene's horror,
with bodies and wreckage strewn
for 100 feet
"I've been through three of these
things," said Tollof Stromlund,
who lives near the wreck site, "and
this is the worst I ever saw."
Stromlund and his wife were
first to reach the bus and they
helped extricate nearly a score of
trapped passengers while neigh
bors called ambulances.

Republican Dies
TUCSON, Ariz., March 20 OP)
Death came today to Frank O.
Lowden, son of a blacksmith farm
er, who rose to the governorship
of Illinois during the first World
War and twice was a candidate for
the republican presidential nom
ination. He was 82 years old. Already
feeble and in ill health, he was
stricken with pneumonia two
weeks ago and grew progressively
worse until his death.
Active in politics since the "full
dinner pail" campaign of President
McKinley in 1896, Lowden sought
the republican presidential nom
ination in 1920, but withdrew on
the eighth ballot when the conven
tion became deadlocked, and War
ren G. Harding was nominated on
the tenth.
A serious contender In 1924
when he was strongly backed by
the mid-west farm bloc, Lowden
saw the nomination go to Calvin
Coolidge. He refused to accept the
nomination as vice president.
His farm plank figured again In
the convention of 1928 when his
name appeared on the Indiana bal
lots. This time the choice was Her
bert Hoover.
In his political career of a quarter-century,
Lowden held only two
elective offices congressman in
1906-11 and governor of Illinois
in 1917-21.
