Interesting Race For Sheriff I One of the most interesting races of the primary is the fight for the democratic nomination for sheriff, where seven candidates are seeking the nomination. All seven men are conceded a chance to obtain the nomination. All the other races, it is predicted by the leaders, will be closely contested. Persons voting in the primary are requftred io vote either th«‘i democratic or republican ticket in accordance witli how they voted at the last election. All citizens of Indiana are entitled to vote for their choice of candidates, under the primary law. Several of the contests for township trustee on both tlie democratic and republican tickets are interesting and. in most of the townships, it is thought the vote will be close. There are six candidates in the democratic primary seeking the nomination for Washington township trustee. Tn the state primary, while interest has been lagging most of the campaign, state political leaders predict that a good sized vote will lie cast. Most of the interest in both parties centers around the nominations for long term senatorial candidates. 0 —— Men Teachers In England Declare War On Equal Pay For Women By Minott Saunders (United Press Staff Correspondent) London, May I.—(United Press)— A serious educational conflict has arisen among teachers in English schools by the firm stand of men teachers not to serve under women and not to accept a status of equal salary with women. The women teachers claim equal rights and a sex war that threatens to shake the present school system has been declared. The fight is (between the Schoolmasters’ Association and the womens’ j organization which is commonly kno'wn as N. U. T., or the National Union of Teachers. The women have been working persistently for a long time, with the result that the men became alarmed and declared open warfare. The schoolmasters passed a resolution, amid much cheering, declaring their opposition to any assistant-

master serving under a head-mistress, and pledged the asosciation to give full financial support to any member who if called upon to serve under a I woman and refuses to do so. They . then, in conference, unanimously took a stand of uncomprising opposition to , the principle of equal pay for men and women teachers. The men claim that the duties of men and women teachers are not equal, and not interchangeable, James Kay, of Liverpool, said: “The mothers of this country might be assured that teachers wanted manly education for the boys. Women i are relentless in their efforts to secure equal pay, and the men will have . to meet their irrational policy relentlessly.” ' One of the strong arguments of the men is that most of them have families to support and that, if the women were granted equal pay, they would not marry, which would be a serious tiling for the nation. They pointed out that women would lie living on a higher social jicale than men teachers. While the men stand unanimous in their fight, there is some discord in the N. U. T. society. Miss J. ('. H. Cowdroy, head-mistress of the Crouch End high school for girls, commenting upon the sex war, said: "No man who could afford to pay for his boy's education would allow him to be taught by a woman. I do not believe that women teachers deserve equal pay with men. A class of I boys is more difficult to handle than , one of girls. During the war, many boys suffered because tiiey wore taught by women and could not come tiU to standard when they were later taken over by mon teachers.” ———o South Bend Judge Is Out To Dry Up City South Bend, Ind., May I.—(United Press.) — Judge Cyrus Pattee today pushed his campaign to break up tiie liquor fraternity in South Bend byheavy fines and jail sentences. Sixteen men and women were given fines totaling $11,250, and jail, sentences totalling 19 months when they appeared before him Friday. He characterized the defendants as “veterans of the rum business" and warned that the maximum penalty would be imposed to third offenders Seven others were given fines amounting to $2,550 earlier in the week. Jail sentences were added to several cases. o Appeals To Farmers To Vote In Primary Indianapolis, Ind., May I.— (United Press.) —An appeal to farmers to turn out in force for tiie primaries Tuesday was made today by William H. Settle, president of the Indiana farm Bureau federation. The interest of the farmers, he said, is vital in the selection of candidates from the senatorial nominations on down. o INSURANCE PAID PROMPTLY Carl Noble today received a check for SSOO from the Public Savings Insurance ’company, through D. M. Sheets, local agent, in payment of a life insurance policy carried by Mr. Noble’s wife, Arba Denn Noble, woh died this week. o You Must Tell ’em to Sell ’em-Advertise
