SCOURGE FEAR AT PUEBLO ENDS Stagnant Pools to Be Cleared in Organized Search for Dead. PUEBLO. Colo., June 9—With forty six bodies officially reported at the city morgue, about twenty bodies recovered by troops and eight or ten known to have been buried by relatives, the known dead in Pueblo’s disastrous floods peached seventy-five dead today. It is believed that the real harvest of victims will begin tomorrow or Saturday, when the stagnant pools in the low lying section* of the city are cleared. While a few cases of smallpox and typhoid have broken out among the Mexican residents, fear of a general pestilence is ended, according to United States public health service officials. Estimates of property damage continue to grow, and $23,000,000 is stated by well-informed real estate men as the minimum damage within the city. Reports sifting in here from the lower Arkansas Talley continue to tell of the widespread devastation In the territory between Pneblo and Lamar, along the Arkansas River. Many bodies have been recovered in this area, some of them. It is believed, however, having been washed down with the raging torrents from Pueblo. It will be many days before the full extent of the property loss and death toll over the 130 mile area from Pueblo to the Kansas State line are known. INDIANA LAW PROVES BOARD’S ACTION ILLEGAL (Continued From Page One.) in any county in this State shall be abolished or its present boundary line in any way changed or altered unless a majority 1 of the freeholders of the township or townships affected thereby shall sign a petition requesting the board of county commissioners to order such change or abolishment: provided, however, that the board of county commissioners may In their discretion without such petition abolish any township or townships or make such alterations In the boundary lines of any township or townships In which is situated a whole or any part of a city having a population of 13.000 or more according to the last preceding United States census as such board of commissioners may deem proper." Pike Township does not contain a city or any part of a city having a population 15,000 or over. REFER TO QUALIFICATION FOR .ALIBI. The county commissioners are now making a desperate attempt to pass off the impression that the only reason they ‘‘abolished” Pike Township was because they claim Superintendent Swalls is not qualified under law to act as superintendent of schools, although he had held the Job for eleven years. Indications are that the county commis- j aioners probably will face mandamus proceedings in a local court for the pur- j pose of compelling them to obey the lawin any action taken to abolish or change the boundaries of a township. A committee of ten citizens of Pike Township appeared at the commissioner's court late yesterday to present a petition signed by 890 of the residents of the township, protesting against the action of the commissioners abolishing the township. Commissioner Shank was the only commissioner present and stated he could not accept the protest unless the entire board was present. Under the law. any taxpayer or a group of taxpayers has the right to file written protests at any time regardless of whether a single member of the board is present. Commissioner Shank advised the com- j mittee to arrange a time for presenting the petition when all members of the board were present. The citzens of Pike township claim that out of 1,100 residents, 890 signed the : protest resolution. It became known today that residents and taxpayers of Pike township are prepared, If necessary, to file injunction proceedings to prevent Mr. Fesler front turning over any funds of Pik e township to the trustees of Wayne township.

COHAN SEES LACK OF HARMONY; DECIDES TO QUIT Veteran Theatrical Producer Says Art and Closed Shop Can't Lice Together. NEW TORK, June 9— George M. Cohan Is going to retire from the theatrical business. Art and the closed shop demanded for next season by the Actors’ Equity Association can’t live together. according to Cohan, and, therefore, being In the minority, be Is going to quit. Cohan’s differences with the Equity Association date back to the actors' strike of 1919, when he helped organize the Actors' Fidelity Association, an organization of nonunion actors, pledged to the open shop. At that time Cohan declared he would never stand for a closed shop in any of his productions. While Cohan's retirement will be a great loss to the stage, It will be nothing short of a calamity to the profession, for it means that the thousand or more actors who would have been engaged for the Cohan productions scheduled for next season, will have to seek employment elsewhere. “In the face of the fact that the coming season does not look any too rosy. It seems to me that I might have helped a lot of actors had I been permitted to," said Cohan,- in discussing his decision. “I might have relieved distress through giving players engagement* who haven't had work for months. I was aot in the game to make money. I have plenty of money for my own use and. Oh, well, I need a rest anyway." CAR GOES OVER EMBANKMENT AT STREET JOG (Continued From Page One.) Paris, when the.

He was a young business man of Boston when the war broke out. and falling, because of weak eyes, to be accepted for service in the Army, he joined the Navy when that branch of the service waived his defect.

He was prominently identified with the Navy’s side of Liberty Loan, War Savings, Camp Community and other patriotic endeavors. He was named chairman of the Americanism commissions of the Massachusetts department of the American Legion after his discharge from the Navy, and later was advanced to chairman of the Americanization committee of the national organization.

CLUBWOMEN URGE HIGHER GRADE SCHOOL BOARD Women Voters Go on Record as Favoring Entire New Personnel. The election of an entirely new board ! of school commissioners to succeed the present faction-torn board, was advocated by the headquarters class of the League of Women Voters, at a meeting held today in the Chamber of Commerce. The class went on record also as favoring the selection of board members who will represent the interests of tho par- j ents, taxpayers and teachers rather than that they should be experts in the field of business, education or public contracting. Mrs. Bert S. Gadd, whose husband Is a member of the present board, was present and said that she was requested to attend the meeting by the Local Council of Women. Mrs. Gadd is chairman [ of the educational committee of the council. “The Local Council of Women will indorse the candidacy of Mrs. Julia Belle Tutewiler, present president of the school board," Mrs. Gadd said. “All members of the so-called majority faction will be candidates for re-election. None of them was desirous of running until they were subjected to so much criticism, and now that they are under fire they feel that they can do nothing else but run again.” By the “majority faction” Mrs. Gadd is believed to have meant Mrs. Tutewiler, Bert S. Gadd and Clarence E. Crippln, as opposed to W. D. Allison and Charles L. Barry. In part the resolution regarding the selection of anew board is as follows: “Concerning the present board, we feel the members have reached a regrettable deadlock, and that their usefulness, re--1 gardless of our sympathy with either j faction, is badly impaired. Wo would j suggest that the best interest of the I schools would probably be served by the 1 election next fall of an entire new board 1 and a fresh start in handling our school j problems.’’ Voters are urged to Investigate carefully the qualifications of persons suggested for the school board before signIng any petition. Attention, is called to : the fact that only one petition can be signed by any one pergi n. A rnulti- : pilcity of candidates is declared undesirable, because of the fact that ’political experience proves generally that | there is a danger when the ‘good vote' iis divided among a large number of candidates that the undesirable vote will concentrate and push through an undesirable candidate.” WILL NOT MERGE 2 INSTITUTIONS Reformatory and Farm to Be Maintained Separately. With the meeting this afternoon with Governor Warren T. McCray of the reformatory relocation committee In an es lort to decide finally on the location of the new prison it became definitely established that the reformatory will remain ns a distinct institution having no connection with the State farm, despite i the intention of tho Legislature in this respect. Senator Estes Duncan of Cloverdale, who has been acting with the committee in an advisory capacity, said it has been definitely decided that it would not be practical to combine the two institutions “Did not tho Legislature believe when it voted for the removal of the reforma tory that It was voting to combine the two institutions?" he was asked. “There Is no doubt but that was the thought of the members of the Assembly. ’’ he said, “but they did not so specify in their bill.”

Gilliland, Methodist minister of Ireland, In a letter to the Indiana Committee for Relief in Ireland, appeals to America to aid In the alleviation of widespread suffering and distress in the Emerald Isle. “The destruction of life and property and the consequent dislocation have caused distress and privation which need immediate International sympathy, good will, financial aid and cooperative effort If Ireland Is to be saved from semistarvation,” the letter states. Indian’s quota In the national campaign for the relief of Ireland has been set at $330,000. To data more than $70,(as) has been raised. State Probation Officer Named Mrs. Corina C.

CITY TO OPPOSE TAX COLLECTION Prepares to Fight Centennial Reveirue Case. The city legal department today was preparing to go to bat with the commissioner of internal revenue at Washington on his attempt to collect. $1,408.22 war tax on admissions charged to the centennial celebration last summer. It was stated that the centennial committee, of which Fred Hoke was chairman, sent to the Indiana office of the internal revenue department last summer shortly after the centennial celebration closed a check for $704.11 in payment of war tax collected on admissions. On Aug. 6, however, the Indiana collecttor's office returned the check to the city, which financed the centennial with a ruling that the tax was not collectable. Now the Internal revenue office at Washington has ruled that *the tax should have been paid and has added to the original $704.11 the 100 per cent penalty for failure to pay within the legal time.
