REVAMPING OF (CONTIXUHD ON PAGE FIVE) toiney by the county council. Under the proposed county school system, it would be governed Uy a county board ot education consisting of the elected township trustees. The board would appoint a coiTiity school superintendent with approval of the state superintendent of schools. Teachers and other employes would he named by the county superinten dent. The committee recommended that u permanent committee on governmental economy be established to make further recommendations and study the possi bility of reducing the number of counties In the state. Appropriations Asked Indianapolis, Feb. 13. —(U.R) —The Indiana legislature will be asked to appropriate 11,296,800 for equipment and structural improvements for the state police department, penal, benevolent and educational institutions, it was learned today. In addition, $640,000 will be asked tor structural improvements at the Fort Wayne State school, state prison, Indiana Soldiers’ and Sailors’ orphans home and the Central State insane hospital. The $640,000 will be spent, however. only upon condition that the state receives a federal grant to match the amount. . Departing from the past procedure of allocating funds to the various departments and institutions for equipment and capita! outlay, I the legislative budget committee this year recommended the money be lumped and be spent upon approval of the governor. A total ot $2,253,460 was asked for the governor’s contingent fund to be spent under direction of the state budget committee. The plan was instituted to prevent "unwise and extravagant spending by departmental and institutional heads.” Largest of the amounts which the legislature will be asked to spend on structural improvements include $90,000 at the Indiana state prison; $198,000 at the Central insane hospital; $183,500 at the Fort Wayne school and colony for insane, and $111.600 at the State Soldiers and Sailors Orphan home. A request for $50,600 to construct state police barracks and radio stations also will be made, it was learned. A total of $84,000 has been asked to equip the department with new motorcycles, uniforms, etcThe biennial budget bill introduced in the house last week provided for an appropriatTbn of $510,000 to the police division. The amount would enable the department to increase its force to 100. Carrying out the program will depend on passage of the state police reorganization bill not in the senate. If the department is unchanged, the new appropriations will revert to the general fund. In recommending air immediate appropriation of $90,000 for structural work at the state prison, members of the budget committee said the improvements would include building of new service headquarters, raising the falls several feet and construction of new towers and gates. Senator Thurman A. Gottschalk, D... Berne, cltairman of the budget committee, said it was the slate's plan to make the prison as near escape proof as possible. The budget provides for a $400,000 appropriation for the next two years for personal services, and $676,000 for operating expenses at the prison, he personal service charge is a large increase over the 1933 request, Gottschalk said, because the state is forced to pay guards from its general fund Decrease in sales of prison-made goods through passage of the

J I — ■■ t A S t Gambling F-we-! & flouruhr*. wdfll <• Racing adds to city revenue. e Officials of-Hot Springs, Ark., have increased municipal revenue and the number of visitors to the famous resort by taking a liberal attitude toward gambling and sale of liquor although both are banned by state law. Past attempts to “clean up the city” proved such a policy costly and futile. Mayor Leo McLaughlin instituted a system whereby liquor and gambling establishments regularly pay systematic fines. In return for their contributions, they are free from arrest or shake-down. Tourist trade has since increased and city finances improved. The progressive McLaughlin now plans to capitalize on Arkansas’ liberal divorce laws and make a bid for the business of Reno, Nev.

GENERAL WOOD IS CONSIDERED Head Os Sears, Roebuck is Mentioned As New Head Os NRA (Copyright 1935 by. United Press 1 Washington, Feb. 13 — (U.R) President Roosevelt's plan for administering his $4,880,000,001) work relief fund through a coordinator and a works board was counted upon today to soothe the ruffled feelings of labor leaders warring with the administration on recent new deal developments. This was revealed as the senate appropriations committee prepared to vote today on labor's demand that a “pievailing wage” be paid workers under the program. The administration plan proposes a relief wage of approximately SSO a month. On the other hand the suggestion that Gen. Robert E. Wood, president of Sears. Roebuck & Co. was being considered for the post of NRA administrator was not received kindly by organized labor groups. There was some doubt whether Wood, a contemporary of Gen. Hugh 8. Johnson, former NRA head, at West Point, would be lable to accept the position and a definite expression of labor's opinion was withheld for the time being. It was believed, however, that appointment of Major George L. Berry, A. F. of L. official, as work relief coordinator would go a long way toward easing the tension which has been manifest in the relations of organized labor and the White House. Officials of the American Federation of Labor were highly pleaser, at word that Berry was being considered for the important work relief position. “He will do splendidly at it.” said burly John L. Lewis, president of the United Mnie Workers. “Labor will be pleased to see him in such a position. He has shown his fitness anil is a stable citizen for a job of this kind.” o GIANT DIRIGIBLE CONTINUED FROM PAGE’ ONE of the crash. Court of Inquiry Washington, Feb. 13—(U.R) -The navy today called a naval court of inquiry to convene within "two or three” days to investigate the Macon crash and probably decide the fate of future lighter-than-air 1 dirigibles. The court of inquiry was announced by Rear Admiral Ernest J. King, chief of naval aeronautics, soon after President Roosevelt, high navy officers, ami congressional spokesmen had
joined In expressions of opinion that appeared to seal the doom of further dirigibles at least forth« present. Secretary of the navy Claude Swanson said the navy "had not made up its mind” as to future dirigibles, but pointed out that he had never recommended construction of one since becoming secretary and still had to be convinced of their practicality. King said Hie formal call for the court to sit would be given by Admiral Joseph H. Reeves, commander-in-chief of the U. S. fleet, probably as soon as the fleet reaches Fan Francisco. The court is expected to ait aboard one of the ships of the fleet and hear testimony from survivors of the crash. President Roosevelt said he had no thought of asking congress for funds to replace the Macon and that even if funds were available he would prefer spending the money for 50 long range scouting planes rather than a dirigible. The chief executive expressed his sorrow over the loss of the giant aircraft. FIEND KILLS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE the murderer overlooked S2OO. Coroner W. E. Beach discovered a SIOO bill under the woman’s pillow. After her body had been removed to the Vore funeral home another SIOO bill was discovered pinned to her underclothes. In the opinions of Police Chief W. E. Jackson and Sheriff R. B. Stevens, the robbery and murder were committed by one man. Mrs. Woodruff, although never considered wealthy, was reputed to have kept fairly large sums in cash hidden about the house. A story which was not confirmed said that neighbors had seen the woman at 11 o'clock Monday night, moving about her house. Mrs. Woodruff was twice married. Her first husband, Amos Slates, was an expert woodworker and cabinet maker. Her second husband, William W. Woodruff, died several years ago, since which time she had lived alone. With the exception of a granddaughter, there are no immediate survivors. o Condemned Crooner In N’Orleans Heard Music Cincinnati —(UP)- The latt music heard by Louis Kenneth Neu, crooning murderer, who was hanged in New Orleans with a smile on his lips, was broadcast, at his reguest, by Barney Rapp, orchestra leader, from ths Gibson Hotel here. Rapp dedicated the program ’‘reverentially to a very dear friend in New Orleans.” Rapp said lie and his orchestra members became acquainted with Neu while attending his trial a year ago when the orchestra was playing in New Orleans.
How Do You CHOOSE? EVERY time you make a purchase you make a choice. Buying a certain product may be so much a matter of habit that you don’t realize you are choosing. But the fact remains that in accepting one brand of goods you are always rejecting others; and the satisfaction you get from what you buy depends on the knowledge of quality and values that guides your selection. How do you know which bed-sheets, or which roofing material, or which radio will give you service you require? You can’t personally test everything you buy and compare it with all the other products in its class. But there is away to find out which brand fits your needs. The people who are most successful in their buying—who achieve the highest percentage of satisfaction from the things they own and use—are those who consistently read the advertising columns, and buy consistently advertised goods. Choosing isn’t just “guessing” when you follow the guidance of the advertisements. + + + You can depend on advertised goods. It pays to read the advertisements.
WOMEN OF 0. S. GOOD INVENTORS Washington —(UP)— American women show * remarkable talent for invention. The number of patents granted to wotqeg lias increased rapidly of late, according to a report of the U. 8. Patient Office. Women excel in inventing a wide variety of articles of special value lo their sex, and also often rival men in their own fields. Women were eligible in America to acquire patents as early as 1790, but 20 years passed before a single woman availed herself of the opportunity. The first woman to be granted a patient submitted a method nf weaving sttraw and silk thread in 1809. In the next 50 years less than a score of women secured patents. The patents issued to women in the United States in recent years cover every conceivable activity. Os all the patents issued to women, 28 per cent are concerned with various ph.ises of housekeeping. Women inventors are now enrolled in the courses for inventors given in our colleges and by the Inventow Foundation, New York City. The seriousness of women inventors is shown by their earnestness in training themselves in all phases of inventing. — o Prisoners “Accompany” Sheriff Who Led Band Millersburg, O. -(UP)— ■Harry B.

Right into the classroom it goes, with prizes for anything we want accomplished. Little wonder that the individual develops the habit of analyzing personal gain. We encourage him to do just that. As a matter of fact, anyone who knows the psychology of childhood knows that if all thought of prizes is removed and no tradition has been established, children will do things that are interesting just for the love of doing them. Such is child nature. Os course, not all things interesting to adults are attractive to children. We must take age and stage, of development into account. But in ordinary school work, children will give their best for a teacher they like. And all the reward they want is a “well done," or a “that’s fine.” It’s that word of praise they seek, simply a little human recognition of a job well done, of something into which they i put their best efforts. In his next article Dr. Ireland will tell about a successful device I to aid in selecting a balanced diet.
