HOHS’ LEAGUE ■PUTS BAN ON POTATOES

APPEAL MADE TO CONSUMERS IN RESOLUTION.

HOME-MADE BREAD URGED

Members of the Housewives* Leagrue of Marion County pledged themselves to abstain from the use of potatoes for two weeks, beginning next Tuesday. and to appeal to all consumers In the United States to do likewise, in a resolution passed at the monthly meeting Wednesday afternoon, in the Chamber of Commerce. The resolution stated that the price of potatoes has bscome almost prohibitive to the average S household, doe largely to manipulation. Several of the housewives, taking part in the general discussion, declared that the high cost situation can be controlled by the women, if they will give the proper amount of time and attention to their households. instead of leaving them to inexperienced help, or neglecting them altogether, for the sake of outside

pursuits.

One speaker suggested that housewives bake their own bread, and that they make their own clothes, showing their independence of the rapidly mounting cost of seady-made commodities of food and clothing. Mrs.

president, presided

[Speoal to The Indianapolis Hew*] LAFAYETTE, Ind- April 15-—The

board of trustee* of Purdue University decided at a meeting here yesterday to halt temporarily the entire program of building improvement and betterment at the institution and to devote the money thus gained to the increase of faculty

salaries.

While no pro-rata increase was decided on, a substantial increase was made in the salary budget for the coming year. Many members of the university staff have resigned this year to join other institutions or commercial concerns because of more attractive salaries, and the situation has become serious, it was an-

nounced.

In a farther effort to relieve the financial stringency, fee# for Indiana students wer# increased from $1* to $51. and those for students outside the state from $«1 to $$«. This increase effective next fall, is expected bring an Increase of $4*,®b0 a year

The inference is plain that the present *dmini*tration believes there is a demand for doing away with this law. The repeal of this law would throw us back on the old convention system. The people are now wielding the power that is theirs and I do not believe they are in a mood to surrender it." Calling attention to the state board of agriculture. Mr. Toner said that _ ‘•ft the present time its only work is to the holding of a state fair each fall. I am not complaining of the fair, but I do believe there Is a broader oppor-
