"The Tricky School Board The story of a small tax reduction without saving the taxpayers a thin dime was told by the Post Democrat more than six months ago when the City of Muncie school board anouncea a nickle tax rate cut from &1.17 to $1 12 per $100 assessed valuation as a
“fooler” to the public.
The finale to that great stage setting last year by the school city has arrival and just a day or two ago the public was advised thatt $35,000 worth of bonds will be issued to reimburse the loss in tax money to the schools by the dive cent tax reduction. There has been no actual saving to thc- ' taxpayers nor any material red tic tion in governmental costs by tlu
school board.
The civil city of Muncie header by the mayor has shown a tax reduction of 20 cents on the $100 as“sessed valuation, a slash from SP cents to 69 cents in'the past two years and has not borrowed money nor issued bonds to make up a deficit. The city administration has actually reduced the cost of government $130,000 in taxes besides having cut the costs of pub lie improvements more than forty per cent. Tax reducing only becomes effective and helpful to the taxpayers when government expenditures are lowered and not when the fines of taxation are “stayed"
for a few months.
Last year at the time tax levies’ and budgets were being made, the local daily newspapers gave much credit to the school hoard for re-
The Price of Milk
Although many families today are merely existing rather than living due to the unemployment of men and the general bad condition of husinss and industry while prosperity hides behind a corner, there is actual profiteering in the city of Muncie and a dire need for investigation as to the retail price of milk. The ttnreasonable and illegitimate profits mt\de from the sale of the world’s most stable food product in Muncie can almost be called a “racket,” especially when many mouths are un-
fed.
At this time the milk plants in Muncie are paying 75 cents per hundred pounds for milk which will figure less than 7 cents per gallon. The consumer pays, 10 cents per quart or 40 cents per gallon for the same milk or nearly a 600 per cent profit Either the farmer is being robbed by the sale of his product or the distributing milk plants are robbing the people of Muncie unmercifully. Surrounding cities and towms are paying 8c per quart for milk delivered and are making better than a fair profit. Milk is being hauled to Winchester from Muncie and being sold at 8c a quai’t The same price exists in Elwoad and some agencies are offering to deliver the
same at 5c per quart.
Muncie distributors w'ould kick strenuously against the farmer selling milk direct to consumers at the same price. They ask the
lieving the burdens of the taxpay-1farmer to cement his barn, build

IS THE WITNESS IMPEACHED?
John CoX, of all citizens of Muncie, has been chosen by the council demand the immediate removal of Mayor Dale and City Controller Holloway, by impeachment process. It was Cox, you know, who was asked by Judge Baltzeil. “which time are you telling the truth.” ' The daily newspapers, referring to notices filed by Cox in the city clerk’s office, identify Cox as a “former constable.” » In order to further identify him the iPost-Democvat introduces a character witness, his wife, who has sued him three times for divorce. This is done not to cast any reflections on Mr. Cox, but to give the people of Muncie some idea of what kis wife thinks about him. and this is eminently proper at a time when the eminent Mr. Cox has cast his hat in the ring as Muncie’s chief exponent Of righteousness. Here’s what his wife thinks about him and she is a good and truthful woman. It is copied verbatim from the records of the superior court: CASE NO. 1 Hattie Cox vs. Jchn Cox, Divorce Cause No. 10955. ^ Filed, Delaware -Superior Court. October 30, 1918. Walter Gray, Attorney. Reading from the Complaint: “Plaintiff further alleges that during the last ten years defendant (John Cox) has been a habitual drunkard; that he would get drunk every three or four months, come home in a drunken condition, abuse plaintiff and strike her with his clinched fist, all of which would cause her great mental anguish and bodily pain.’ “Plaintiff further alleges that the defendant for the last year associated himself with men and ‘women of bad character both colored and white, that when drunk he' would as-sociate with colored women of bad character and spend his money with them an abuse this plaintiff.” “Plaintiff further aleges that the defendant on the 27th day of October 1919, got drunk and associated-himself with a lot of colored women of bad repute and come to the restaurant at the Triangle crossing, in the City of Muncie, in company With four colored women and one colored man, in a drunken condition and when plaintiff remonstrated with - him about his conduct, he struck her several times with his clinched list and tore her skirt off of her; that as a result of his striking her, her breast was so bruised that it caused it to swell up.” CASE NO. 2 Hattie Cox vs. John Cox, Divorce, Cause No. 3013, Filed Delaware Superior Court, March 28, 1921. Reading from the Complaint: “That defendant (John Cox) is now and for a long time last passed has been a habitual drunkard an’d that said defendant has been guilty of associating with women of ill repute and is guilty of adultery with women, whose names are to this plaintiff unknown.” ( CASE NO. 3 Hattie Cox vs. John Cox, Divorce, Cause No. 6855, Filed, Delaware Superior Court, Feb. 23, 1931. Reading from the Complaint: “That he (John Cox) has frequently come home intoxicated and called the plaintiff vile and vulgar names; that he has been drunk and drinking a greater part of the time, for the last few months; that he has stayed away irom home all night many times in the last six months and has>spent all his earnings at Other places away from home; that he has contributed little or nothing toward the support of plaintiff for two years last past and althougu <e hai i lade more money than he ever did, he has spent less in -sui j <-rt ’>f hi- horne in the last two years, than he ever did.” Take the witness. i
