■HOOL BOARD ■LASH RESULT FOF PAY FIGHT Parry and Crippin at Odds on I Appointment of Advisory = Commiftee. Relationship between officials of ttie tndianapoiis school city were strained today as the result of a discussion over the appointment of a financial advisory committee. Following a decision of the board of school commissioners to institute new contracts with teachers for the purpose of paying a bonus of SSOO for the present school year, should such procedure bo held legal, a discussion concerning £;e appointment of ,an advisory cornwas brought up by Commissioner night. Hd’Ue board adopted anew salary schedallowing a minimum salary of Sl.'Jtvt a maximum salary of Sl.son for tea •iu'rs and a minimum f BRon and a maximum of $2 .SOO for high rehool teaeher’. Mr. Barry caljed attention to action aken by the board at a special meeting Saturday, when a decision permitting himself, as chairman of the financial •ommittee, to call in representatives of rarious banks and trust companies to irtvise the board on financial matters, was rescinded. DECLARES RESCINDING F AUTHORITY ILLEGAL. It was held by Mr. Barry that the ictlon rescinding this authority was Illegal and not in compliance with parliamentary rnle. President Crippin held thai the actiou teas legal, but Mr. Barry demuirtd and presented a motion to rc I'find the latter action. According to Mr. Barry the financial fonditlon of the school city is growing

more serious all the time, with debts iceumulating continuously and if such mstt'-rs are pot properly handled a great Burden will be inflicted on the taxpayers. He urged a meeting with men of financial experience and said he was not in accord with the sentiment of the board which seemed to be opposed to ratling in financial men ,'or advice. "You expressed an opinion at the last meeting that sueh men will attempt to dictate to the board,” Mr. Barry said to President Crippin. “That lias been the trouble with school .■•Clairs for some time," answered Mr. Crippin. It seemed to V *hc opinion of tic Board, with the < seeption of Mr. l;rrry. ibat the calling of an adxtsorv committic from the rtntncicl Mre'ests of the cjty may result in ;>u est rt to curtail ts-e building progrim. Mr. Barry held that the real facts of ■- -hool expenditures were being withheld from the public, and predicted financial chaos within the next few years as a result of the heavy bonded indebtedness for building funds. Crippin then pointed to the fact that no r-omplaint has been made by taxpayers and Commissioner Allison held that the calling of a financial cjinmlttee would be an indication that board membeis'were unable to cope with, the situation. BARRY ATTACKS CLOSED MEETINGS OE BOARD. Mr. Barry theu attacked closed meetings of the board and called attention !■> certain criticism made of a newsi< tper interview which be bad givetwout in which he was credited with having i-.-.id he was in favor of granting the t'-achers an increase even if it was necessary to curtail the building plan, which statement was objected to by President Crippin and Mrs. Tutewiler on the g.ound £hat It might result in interference with the building plan. “Are you not iu favor of granting the teachers an increase in pay. even if it • b-es curtail the • building program?' asked Mr. Barry of Mr. Crippin. Mr. Crippin held the question out ot o=-der and refused to answer. Mr. Barry then asked several other • rtegorical questions of the same nature, which aroused the ire of board mentis rs•Mt seems to me,” said Mrs. Tutewiler, la commenting on Mr. Barry’s questions, •• are playing to the gallery you did before the state board o* tax commissioners this afternoon. "When we were before the board you it \j-ted that ‘I made the motion' in rep rd to teachers’ p3y t whereas in reality j-oii were merely permitted to express lie sentiment of the board. “j object to your talk this afternoon and I object t your talk here tonight.” “And I object to you and every other rri'inber cf this board doing and saying tlcngs in closed meetings of this board when the press is not represented that r i will not do or say in public,” an svered Mr. Barry. You have refused to answer questions h're tonight expiessing the sentiments w bieh you showed Saturday afternoon.” President Crippin ended the discussion at this point. BITT IX CLASH WITH COMMISSIONER GADD. The first allusion to actions on the part of George C. Hitt, business director. in regard to unauthorized expenditures on school No. fib was made at last night’s meeting by Commissioner B S. Gadd during a discussion over action in placing blinds on windows at tlie orphans’ home in connection with the school. At the last meeting of the board a letter was received requesting that shades he placed on the school windows so that n picture machine donated to the school might Be used. Mr. Hitt reported that the s'ate board o- accounts held the school city had no nuthority to make the purchase. Mr. Gadd said' he was under the impression thht the blinds had been ordered placed, to which Mr. Hitt replied that he misunderstood the action of the

board and that he was merely doing his duty in reporting the sentiment of the state lax board. Mr. Gadd then remarked that it would have perhaps beep well if the business director had always been as frank with the board in regard to his duty at School 59. "Never mind about my duty hereto fore.” sa'd Mr. Hilt, “I have always dope it as I thought best. “I am not here to be insulted by you In open meeting of this ooard.” ACTION TAKEN ON TEACHERS' BONES. Action in regard to a bonus demanded by teachers was taken following an opinion expressed by Frederick E. Matson, president of the 'Rotary club, who appeared in behalf of the teachers. It was decided by the board to give the teachers new contracts for the last two months of the school year embodying the salary increases providing that

The After Effects of Pneumonia This is No. 2 of a series of advertisements, prepared by a competent physician, explaining how certain diseases which attack the air passages—such as Pneumonia, Influenza, Whooping Cough, Measles or even a long continued Cold —often leave these organs in an inflamed, congested state, thus affording a favorable foothold for invading germs. And how Vick’s VapoRub may be of value in this condition.

Pneumonia attacks the air cells of the lungs. An inflammation is set up and matter is thrown off which causes the air cells to solidify, thus preventing the natural flow of blood thru the lungs. This “backing up” of the blood causes the heart to pump harder, just as stepping on a hose increases the water pressure, which is the reason why. during this disease, the physician watches the overburdened heart so carefully. After recovery the lungs are filled with a mass of wreckage—the debris of the battle—which must be gotten rid of by a process known as resolution. Frequently, inflamed spots remain, congestion persists, cough hangs on, and the least exposure brings on a cold that is hard to get rid of. If neglected, such damaged air passages may easily develop serious disease of the lungs. Such cases should always continue under a physician's care ind frequent examinations should be made to see that nature is properly continuing the rebuild-

loans could be made on funds other than the special fund and that contracts could be legally canceled. Final action on the matter was held in abeyance until Mr. Matson will have an opportunity to submit a written opinion on the matter The borrowing power of the board is limited to one-third of the special fund under the present tax law, according to Ralph W. Douglass, assistant business director, who suggested at a meeting with the state tax board yesterday that all funds be placed in the special fund to increase the borrowing power. During a discussion of the proposal to cancel contracts and institute new ones for the remainder of this year Albert Baker, attorney for the school board, was asked for an opinion and replied that the matter was new to him and he had not studied it. However, a record of proceedings at a meeting of the board a week ago shows

ing process. Nightly applications of Vick’s Vapo-Rub will aid nature in this work. Jiecuuse Vicks acts locally by stimulation thru the skin to draw out ihe inflammation, attract the blood away from the congested spots and relieve the cough. In addition, the medicinal ingredients of Vicks are vaporized by the body heat. These vapors are breathed in all night long, thus bringing the medication to bear directly upon the inflamed areas. Vicks should be rubbed in over the throat and chest until the skin is red—then spread on thickly and covered with hot flannel cloths. Leave the clothing loose around the neck and the hod clothes arranged in the form of a funnel so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. If the cough is annoying, swallow a small bit of Vicks the size of a pea. Samples to new users will be sent free on request to the Vick Chemical Company, 232 Broad Street. Greensboro, N. C.

that Mr. Baker made the following statement in regard to canceling con tracts iu order to establish the bonus: "That is a mere subterfuge. "They could, by mutual agreement, cancel contracts, but if it is for the purpose of increasing the salaries they might as well increase the salary with.out canceling the contract.” The plan to substitute new contracts for the remainder of the year will give teachers an. increase of approximately SIOO for the remainder of (he term and will cost the school city about $150,000, it was said. A meeting with representatives from the Teachers’ federation will be held Thursday evening at 4 o'clock for a discussion of salary measures. A salary increase to all janitors, custodians, engineers and firemen of the city schoSls amounting to from $lO to sls per month, effective May 1, was authorized by the board.

Tells Fat People Perverted Craving For Wrong Foods Must Be Overcome. Says Arbolone Tablets Does This" and Reduces Weight, Too. The person who Is too fat Is told to diet and the very things that a perverted appetite craves are the ones ''you must not eat." Obesity is unnatural. It is like an endless chain.

Tablets Arbolone stops the perverted craving for the wrong foods, gives a normal appetite, eliminates the fat-forming elements through kidneys and bowels, dissolves the fatty surplus and Benda it back through eliminative channels, •ausing improved health and strength. One or two tubes will convince any fat person that Arbolone is what they need to reduce safely and successful ly.

>fL THE grave problem conJL flic 1 fronting the seriousminded men in the petrolj leum industry today, is to uasoime keep pace in production ' ** with the seven-league a 1 strides of the demand for Froblem gasoline. In ten years the production of • crude oil in the United States has increased only 96 per cent, while during the same period the output of gasoline has increased 560 per cent. • The demand for no other com- * modity in general use has increased to a degree that even approximates the mark reached by gasoline. In ten years the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has increased its output of gasoline from 150 million gallons to more than 600 million gallons a year. # It is apparent that this could not have been accomplished except by intensive application of improved, scientific methods of refining. Asa matter of fact, the price of gasoline is held in bounds only by the sheer force of science. Except for the ability of such institutions as the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) to make a wide range of useful products from that part of the crude oil which is not used to make gasoline, you would be payinga much higher price for gasoline than you pay today. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is bending every effort to increase its output of gasoline to meet the demands and to sell it to you at as low a price as possible.
