OFFICIALS HOLD MEETING tC< iNTINITED ON PAGF THREE) I Announcement was made by K.l A. Bickel, president, of the appoint-1 ment of Hugh Baillie as executive vibe president of the United Press. Baillie joined the United Press in 1915 in Los Angeles. Later he actjed as bureau manager in San Francisco and Portland; city editor in ■ Chicago and' Washington, and news i i manager of the New York bureau. I ' In 1926 he was appointed business 1 'manager and later made vice presi-' dent in charge of business. There will be no other changes in •

the executive personnel of the or-, ganization. Robert J. Bender, vice' president, remains in charge of the, news services, and Janies H. Furay continues as vice-president in' charge of the foreign service. After maintaing its headquarters' on Park Row for 24 years, the Unit-1 cd Press will move Its general of-' flees to the News building, 220 East 42nd street, April 27th. It was also announced that the London offices of the United Press,, which have been in Temple Chambers since organization of the assc-' j elation, will be moved to the News iof the Worlds building early next jyear. The increasing'requirements , ;of the organization made both I moves imperative. | In his annual report to the organization today, Bickel stated that the (worldwide clientele of the United Press now reached 1.166 newspapers. "Despite the general softening of bqsiness condtilons throughout the world." said Bickel, "United Press has closed the past 12 months with its largest client list and with a record of fewer service changes in the past year than at any time in history. "Direct service is being mainItained to newspapers in 42 nations, ' I !

and each day United Press dispatches are published in 19 different languages. “Maintaining its policy of constant expansion In tlie collection ol its worldwide news reports, tlie United Press in the past 12 months has made consistent progress in the development of its worldwide news collection resources. New long term agreements have been conI eluded with Nippon Dempo Tsurhln ' Sha, the leading independent, nonsubsidized Japanese news service, through which tlie United Press is (exclusively entitled to news reports of that agency collected 'the entire Japanese empire, Korea and Manchuria. Nippon <Dempo Tsushin Sha serves about three times as many newspapers as its nearest competitor in Japan. "In addition, news agreements , providing for an extension of serj vice have been signed in Shanghai. Peiping and Hankow anti service connections have been greatly augmented in Spain.”

Dr. Kelley disappeared four days almost to tha hour from the time that Albert G. Blumer, Monroe, Wis., near-beer manufacturer, was freed at Decatur, 111., by the gang! that had held him seven days fori $150,000 ransom, and gave up its extortion negotiations for tear of capture. 0 —i NEW CHARGES FILED IN SUIT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) portation in the Public Service Commission” are: Dick Heller, Decatur, clerk of the house; Senators John C. Sherwood, republican, Mitchell, and J. Francis Lodiard, republican. Milan, and Representatives William I). Conner, democrat. Indianapolis, and James M. Knapp, republican. Hagerstown. It is alleged in the additions to I the complaints that "certain persons” were interested in removing tlie clause that gave the cities and I towns authority over bus and truck i transportation and vested it entire|ly pdth the Public Service Commission. . Further charges set out that the alleged conspirators agreed that the attempt to pass the bill without the municipality clause, which had jbeen stricken out tty the senate, (should be made in' the "closing i hours of the legislature in the con(fusion and rush of business.” “SCHOOL TAXING SYSTEM NEEDS CHANGE,’’ COLE (CUiVTINtUD FROM PAGE ONE) then the tax rate should be set to make up the difference.

As a means of collecting school funds, Mr. Cole stated that the; gasoline tax which is an indirect ’ tax completely maintains ouri roads. He made several sugges-' tions of taxation by indirect methods which could be used to collect 1 money fcr school use. He predicted that some day soon schools would be operated com- | pletely by the state taxation system instead of the present county' township and state system. Mr. Cole distributed charts showing the' affect of 35 cents state rate <ould. have on each school taxing! unit ( of the county. In one instance, tjiaj.. ( |of St. Marys township, the rate would be 3 cents higher but it would be lower in every other unit’ of the county. Mr. Cole also related briefly i other phases of his work as state superintendent. Following the address by Mr. Cole, the meeting adjourned.
