Issue-Statemenf On Consolidation Statement Given By Monroe Committee A second statement on the school consolidation movement was issued today by the Monroe township school investigation committee. It l follows: "The school townships of Kirkland, Monroe, and Washington in Adams county are proposing to merge and consolidate into one school corporation, thus substantially paring administrative costs and giving a fuller and more complete curriculum to their students. This consolidation is authorized under chapter 273 of the Indiana acts of 1947 and amended by chapter 268 of the acts of 1949. “These laws allow trustees of school townships to meet and agree to effect such consolidation, or it may be accomplished by the trustees being petitioned to consolidate schools by petitions which originate with the voters of the townships. The latter method was adopted and used in the present case. The trustees of Washington and Kirkland school townships agreed to consolidate; Monroe school township did not; a special election is thus necessary and will be held soon under the time limits set out in the laws mentioned above. “Financing of the consolidated j school district will be accomplished under the method of a holding corporation organized for nonprofit nnder provisions of the laws recited. The 1949 legislature by amendment obviated three features of the 1947 act that were not satisfactory, and now the holding corporation does not have to pay gross income tax; secondly, its stock does not have to be approved by the Indiana securities commission; thirdly, the interest rate payable to the stockholders for shares : in the holding corporation may be i as high as six percent, being raisi ed from a maximum of four per- : cent under the 1947 law. “Architects and engineers have i made preliminary sthdy of the j needs of the GOO students in the proposed consolidated district and I believe that the school can be built I for approximately $500,000, and j not to exceed $600,000. This includes a minimum of 28 class l rooms with the usual offices, rest- ' rooms, physical culture, cafeteria, i and assembly rooms. These plans ! allow for an additional growth of 1100 students. [ **The consolidated school disti rict would lease the building built by the holding corporation. The rent would be used to retire the bonds and pay the interest each year on the bonds not retired. The j law provides that such lease agree-

Studebaker Output Highest On Record South Bend, Ind.. April 6 — (UP — Harold S. Vance, president and hoard chairman of Studebaker Corp., said today that more cars were produced by that firm in March than in any previous month. He said 26,957 cars were turned out compared with 21,363 in February, and 21,237 in March, 1948. The previous high mark was 23,197 in June, 1945, Vance said. ment could run for a maximum of 30 years. It is believed that the bonds could be retired in 18 years with only a small levy on each SIOO of the combined $7,000,000 valuation of the three school townships. The civil townships would bear no part of the expend entailed. The city of Decatur and the town of Berne would bear no part of the taxation, being separate school entities. The proposed consolidated school district would maintain the school, make repairs, and carry the insurance until the school building and grounds is completely owned by it. Taxes would not amount to sl2 per acre, nor anything near such a figure. As pointed out previously, the tax of the school district comes from personal property including live stock, furniture, automobiles, tractors, machinery, factories, railroads, real estate, intangibles, and -ell other miscellaneous property on which taxes are now levied.”

Fort Wayne Radio Quiz Show Winners Two Contestants Hit Jackpot Last Night Fort Wayne, Ind., April 6—(UP) —Officials of “keep the music,” a local radio-telephone quiz show, today hunted for new “mystery voices” after two contestants hit the jackpot last night for $15,650 and bankrupted the stock of “mysteries.” The program, derigiifd to drum up public interest and relieve a “huge deficit" in the finances of the Fort Wayne Philharmonic orchestra, is sponsored by radio station WKJG, the Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette, the Fort Wayne Junior league and the Fort Wayne Musical society, parent organization of the philharmonic. Mrs. Everett Thorn,' 23, Fort Wayne factory worker, won $12,500 when she identified the voice of Kenneth Crosbie, Bluffton, himself a winner of some $30,000 on "stop the music" several months ago. Mrs. Ward Kruse. 39. a farmwife from Aurora, was called some 18 minutes later on the program and correctly identified the program’s new “mystery voice” as Cliff Milnor, a Journal-Gazette columnist. Sponsors said /hey were sure they could round up another voice j or two, and the program would go on again next Tuesday night. Three Students Are 1 Honored At Indiana An Adams county man, Donald E.

Some $60,060 of the cash taken from coffers of the National City Bank of New York apparently still was unaccounted for. Crowe had sent about that much back to his family to pay off debts, and nearly $55,000 was found in his Daytona beach apartment, rented only three days before his arrest.
