OOOR CHILD /AND Tilt SCHOOL By Dr. ALLfiN G. UPLAND Dwettr, Fhytrrtd Uniih | N«r /rrwy Skttr •/ Pahiit When to Exclude * The control of communicable disease would be much easier than it is if we could name a disease as soon as the first symptoms appear, or if we were always ■ right when we say “Oh, it’s only a cold.” But, unfortunately, such isn’t the case. Sniffles appear, or maybe a cough or sore throat come first. The child may not complain, but if he is irritable, unusually quiet, and not interested in play, something is wrong. What is it? The only chance of a fair guess is when we know that the child has been in contact with a known diagnosed case. Otherwise, those early signs and symptoms may mean anything. That is why it is so essential to avoid taking chances. One case may start an epidemic with disastrous results. It is no time to guess. Only one safe and sane course is open to the school, and that is immediate exclusion of every pupil showing any deviation from normal health. It pays to be over careful at such times. Attendance records are of no impor.tance when child health, maybe a life, is at stake. Next week Dr. Ireland will write about the importance of milk and .other protective foods in promotino the growth of children.

Governor McNutt Answers The Critics

(Stenographic Report of His Open Forum In IndianapoliH, Oct. 24.) , GOVERNOR McNUTT: Have you any questions you want to «sg on taxes? QUESTION: What is the reduction per hundred In Washington Township for next year? GOVERNOR: I can’t answer that question. 1 haven’t the record. MR. EVANS WOOLEN: Fifty cents on a hundred. GOVERNOR Well, how about that! Think of a $6,000,000 reduction — that Is a reduction of tiilrtythree and a third per cent in the property taxes in this year. GOVERNOR: Walt a minute. There are two factors in determining taxation: the assessment and the rate. You raise the assessment, you can lower the rate; you lower the assessment, you can raise the rate. What are you interested In, assessments or the rate or the amount you pay? Are you interested in the amount you pay? Isn’t It the amount that you pay that counts? Well, the amount is a third less. (Prolonged applause). Let’s not get phoney In your argument. You just can’t get away from that. And that is what counts to me I go up to pay my taxes. QUESTION: Governor, I have about four questions I would like to ask along the scandal line. GOVERNOR: Shoot. QUESTION: That is, if you will assu r e me that I won’t be annihilated like I would be in Clark County. GOVERNOR: You won’t be. Go ahead. QUESTION: Is it true that you bought $37,000 worth of furniture for the State House from your political friend, Bowman Elder? GOVERNOR: 1 didn't buy anything from anybody. Now, let me tell you something. The purchasing departments of the State of Indiana have just one set of instructions. That is, they take the low bid and, all things being equal. It goes to the Indiana bidded. Now let me tell you something else. Do you think that rule is not enforced? Why should 1 let the contract for state printing to one of bitterest political enemies? I did. Why? Because they had the low bid. I defy you to find anything wrong with any buy that has been made by the purchasing department! Their books are open. Shoot again What is the next one? QUESTION: Is it t r ue that Mr. Elder bought this furniture from the low bidder, delivering this same furniture to the State at the high bid? GOVERNOR: The answer is “No." QUESTION: Question No. 3: Is it not true that your force the using of brick in a state road over the protest of the Highway Commission, its engineers, and over seventy-five per cent of the people adjoining the road? And is it further true that your father is attorney for the company furnishing this brick? GOVERNOR: All right. The answer is NO all the way along the line. Now then. 1 want to talk about that. Indiana is the seventh state in the Union in clay products. Brick is a recognized paving material- The plants in all of these towns have been closed down. They have never had a show under the other highway commission. And I said this: At least eight per cent of the new roads built should be brick, in order to give the people of the State of Indiana some employment. (Prolonged applause and cheers). Now, let me tell you something else. I don't belong to the cement trust and never will. If yon want to go out along the National Road l between here and Cumberland, you will see a new stretch we had to lay this year. Do you know what we had to do with the old cement road? We buried it on either side of the road. Do you know how long that had been down? Ten Years Now, I will show you a brick road, the first brick of which was laid by Sam Ralston during his first year as governor. It has been down over twenty years, and it was in better shape at the end of twenty year than that cement road that we burled was at the end of teu. QUESTION: Question No. 4: Is it true that your family and your wife's family own the Insecticide company which sold a large amount of its products to the State? GOVERNOR: O. K. The Cantol Wax Company was formed in 1910. It sells goods in every state in the Union and most countries in the world. It has been in business a long time. It Is an Indiana corporation. 1 at one time was an officer. After my election and before I took office, I resigned as an officer and disposed ot all of my stock. I don't own a penny’s worth of it. There are at least fifty people in Indiana who are stockholders, most of whom are not related to me in any way. And 1 have said that any Indiana company that has good goods can come in and bid and If they are the low bidder, they get the business. Now- then, if they can find a single thing wrong with any purciiase made by the state of Indiana. 1 want to have the information and I will see to it that it is made right. (Applause). Put your- finger on a single thing that is wrong. Let me tell you something, and everybody else: If ’anybody will bring me any evidence of any dishonesty or graft or underhand dealings on the part of any state employe, 1 will see to it that employe is prosecuted to the full extent of the law, and immediately, no exception. (Applause). I leave had them come in to me, and I told a man the other day that represented one of the largest banks in Chicago, and I told him all the money in the bank couldn't buy his way into any place in Indiana. GOVERNOR: Do you want to know about the Two Per Cent Club? (Calls from the audience: "Yes") GOVERNOR: You want to know about the Two Per Cent Club. Now, we are all practical people, and we know that it takes money to run political organizations. What do you think the Republican organization has been running on? Wind? They may have sounded like it, but 1 give you my word that is not true. I said when I came into office: "We are not going to shake the hat under anybody tliat we would Expect favors from or might expect favors from Indiana." I said: "We are going to pay our bills openly and voluntarily contributed by party members. And I will show you what I wanted to prevent. 1 have here in my hand an excerpt from the congressional record 'Of campaign contributions made to the campaign fund of one Herbert Hoover in 192.8. Now listen! Jeremiah Millbank dropped in $25,000 when they passed the hat. He got a tax refund of $891,443. John N. Willys, of Willys Overland, dropped in $25,000; he got $677,567 back and got appointed ambassador to Poland. The Timkem Brothers, of Timken hearings must have been a little short that day, they dropped in $10,600; got back $370,131. The VanSweringen boys, the railroad boys up here in Cleveland, must have shaken the hat m front of them, dropped in $65,000; they got back $353,361. And the Rockefellers, John I) and John 1)., Jr., dropped in $25,000. and got back — do my eyes deceive me! — $8,545,000. (Laughter and applause). Herbert Strauss, $25.000; gets back $86,736. The treasurer of the Republican National Committee. $25,000; gets back $83,669. Harvey Firestone, of Firestone tires. $25,000; gets hack $2,960,000. Charlie Hayden, $25,000; gets back $1,876,000. George Baker, the New York banker, $20,000; gets back $100,000,060. For every dollar those twenty-tour American millionaires contributed to the campaign fund of Herbert Hoover, they got tax refunds of $210.00 paid by the federal government. Tliat is the 240 Per Cent Club. (Laughter and applause). Now, in the first place, the Two Per Cent Club is not a Two Per Cent Club. The payments made there do not average to exceed one per cent And, of course, really when you look back at the record, you must come to the conclusion that the Democrats are just pikers in this matter, because vze have the letters that were sent out in 1932 when the Republicans were in power. The Republican state employes — lei me read a line regarding the amount of the pledge. They have stated that: "It has been suggested that a reasonable amount for employes of the various departments of Hie government in tile State House would be five per cent of one year's salary." Five per cent for one election! Then they cry their eyes out about the Hoosier Democrat Club. Records are all open and aboveboard. They are there. No man or woman has been compelled to join. Those memberships are voluntary They are trying to do their part, (Applause) to keep the bills of the organization paid. Have any other question along that line, gossip or otherwise? They say 1 own a brewery — Shoot. Have they circulated the story out here that I own a brewery? Answers from the audience, "Yes." GOVERNOR: Some places they say it is two breweries. Now isn't that a fine thing to say about a former superintendent of a Methodist Sunday School? (Laughterl lam afraid the brethern would disown me. Well, if you want to know the truth, Ido not own, 1 never have owned, 1 don’t suppose 1 ever will own any interest of any kind in any organization or partnership or enterprise having to do with the manufacture or sale of intoxicating liquor. (Applause). Is that enough tor you? (Applause).

They call me “The Traveling Governor." Well, I have been invited to speak In every state in the United States of America during this last year. I haven't gone everywhere. Gone to some of them. Why? Because lam proud to tell the rest of the world about Indiana, and 1 don't think it does Indiana any harm. (Prolonged applause), me tell you something else. Whenever I leave the State, I can come back That is more than some of my Republican predecessors could do. (Applause). MR. JAKE WEISS: Tell them about the traveling expenses. GOVERNOR: Jake wants to know about the traveling expenses. It has been circulated I pay for these out of contingent fund. No. 1 pay them out of my own pocket. Contingent fund is open- Do you think they would not have paraded it if it had been there? No. The records are open and aboveboard. Any other gossip? Let’s get rid of it all while we are at it. QUESTION: Are you a millionaire, Governor? GOVERNOR: It was stated one place I have $125,000 deposited In Chicago; another one said $225,000. What money 1 have, and it Is not much, is deposited in Indiana banks, and every penny that Is in there I earned honestly. It is not much, because when these folks that come in talk about financial institutions, come in with a hard luck story, 1 can match it. When they talk about a bank blowing up in your face, I can tell them about the one that blew up in mine- When they tell me about paying the assessment on their stock, I can tell them what I hod to do the day before Christmas 1932 — and it came at a tough time. When they talk to me about building and loan stock, I can tell them 1 have some, too, and haven't been able to get a penny out of it. But it is all there. That is silly gossip. The lives and fortunes of our citizens are at stake in this campaign and they resort to that stuff. (Someone in the audience called, “It is a damn shame!” (Laughter and applause). What I want to do. my fellow citizzens. is just get these things all cleared away so we can go ahead with the business of government. What I have done tonight 1 have done in eVery community in which I have spoken, thrown the door entirely wide for questions, and as long as they wanted to ask them 1 stood there and answered them. Up In Starke County the other night they asked them for so long. I finally went around and sat down on the table and we had a town meeting. QUESTION: How about the prison, Michigan City? GOVERNOR: I said 1 had made some mistakes up there. 1 didn't clean house enough. And 1 put my finger exactly on the blame — guards inherited from the Leslie Administration. QUESTION: What are their names? GOVERNOR: You know their names. Furthermore, we aren't through with that thing yet, either; don’t think for a minute we are. We are not going to say what we are going to do until we are all ready to shoot, but 1 am not going to quit until we do find the end of it, not once. Let me tell you something about the state institutions. I have heard their talk. They said I put politics into the state institutions. 1 did, eh? Wish you would see what I found when I came. Eighteen out of twenty-one superintendents Republican, eiglity-six per cent of the employes Republicans. Ed Jackson put them in politics and Harry Leslie kept them there. All 1 am doing is to even up, that is all. GOVERNOR: What about the deaf school? 1 left on there. 1 am not entirely happy about it, either, if you want to know the truth about it. Any man or woman who had demonstrated real capacity in his job was left on that job. Why do you think I kept Cap Howard, who is out here at the Penal Farm, a dyed.in-the-wool Republican? Why do you suppose I kept Dr. Behr at Central Hospital, or Milliken at the hospital in Madison? Why? There have been no changes made except lor the better. Let me tell you something — QUESTION: Who did you put at Butlerville? GOVERNOR: Dan McCauley. QUESTION: Is he fitted for a job like that? GOVERNOR: He Certainly is. Who -do you suppose they had at the head of all that institution in the days before, an institution for the treatment of the feeble minded? 1 put a doctor at the head of that institution; they put republican politicians. QUESTION: Is Dan McCauley a doctor? GOVERNOR: He is not the head of the institution Dr Dunham is the superintendent. (Laughter and applause). QUESTION: What is McCauley’s capacity then? GOVERNOR: He is Dunham’s assistant. But the superintendent the man who is responsible to me and to his board is Dr Dunham He is the boss. Anything else. Frankly, my fellow citizens, you know what we have been up against in the State of Indiana, not for the last two years, but for the last half century, a bitter, partisan, hostile press. They don't print the good things about Indiana in Indiana. The rest of the country knows more of the good things in Indiana than they do right here. ’ QUESTION: What about the Indianapolis Sta r ? GOVERNOR: They talk about this business of prison administration, do you think the New York Herald Tribune asked me to come to New Y ork to talk them about fitting the penalty to the criminal. They worked a shinamgan on me — sold the manuscript to the Washington lost and the Minneapolis Journal besides using it themselves Any other question? Now then, my fellow citizens, what I want you to do is this I want you to compare your situation now with what it was two years ago. Now, they don I talk about what they have in their platform. They are afraid to. I have analyzed what ft would mean. If the Republican party w-ere to carry out its state platform, it would mean one or the other of two things, either a five per cent sales tax plus the rum of municipal functions, the destruction of credit, the doing awav with poor relief the ruin of out- institutions of higher the ruin of benevolent and penal institutions, the violation of the contract wi I every member of (he teachers' retirement fund, the violation of th • contract for the World WWar memorial, or It would mean a twelve per cent sales tax on the people of this slate. Do vou want that? would just like to have our folks visit some of our surrounding states and take a look at how the sales tax operates 8 Now. let me tell you one other thing. 1 have no pride in forms I am interested n two things: to reduce the cost of government ami make an equitable distribution of the burden. And l have said tint a soon as .this election is over. I am going to form a c ommittee consisL ing of a representative from labor and a representative from the farmers. a representative from the manufacturers and two or three rear, sentatives from the House; and I want that firs't'one to artic’le^°hat'was* cTrcuU^ed'a'n'over'the* XteX " C^r beading on It - just to show you tell pohits the way”’That Vt’hi X " ewsp, ‘ perß tl > hero.
