MAY START ROW OVER TRACTORS TO HAUL ASHES "City Officials See No Savings in SIO,OOO Expenditure for Machines. Soma city officials disagree ■with Lassies B. Swift, president of the board of sanitary commissioners, and the board in Its plans to substitute tractors for sanies for hauling ash and garbage collection trailers through the alleys. Mr. Bwife announced last week that experiments looking toward this end had been In progress for ten days. The board of public works, which had Control of garbage and ash collection prior to May 28 when It was transferred to the sanitary board by law, discussed the advisability of using tractors Instead Os mulea some time ago but never decided to adopt the plan for the same reasons that those who oppose the sanitary board’s Idea now set out. The system of garbage and ash collection will be combined within a month or two, when the sanitary board completes the purchase of three tractor trucks, eighteen trailers and other motorized collection equipment, which sre to be •dded to the motor ash collecting vehicles the board of works Installed within* the last two years. It is*planned to use most of the equipment on garbage Collection In the summer and ash collection In the winter. Both kinds of refuse ."are to be gathered up from the containers in alleys with single trailers hauled by mules or borses. This has been the plan in the ash department it was motorized. Garbage now is collected in horse and mule-drawn wagons which go clear to the loading station at Kentucky avenue and Drover street every time they are full. COUPLED TO TItUCK AT CENTRAL POINT. Three of the trailers are hauled to a central point where they are coupled In a train drawn by a tractor truck. This train then moves to the ash dumps or the garbage loading station, as the case may be. What the sanitary board proposes to do is to ha ul the single trailers through the alleys with tractors instead of animals, upon the theory that would be faster and cheaper. One city official, who has had an opportunity to study the operation of motor equipment, points out that In his opinion It will be Impossible to work the alleys with tractors cheaper and faster than with animals. Each team and trailer now makes an average of from 500 to 600 stops per day, he said, and so far no motor ever has b?en made which wt 1 aland np economically under such a terrific strain cf starts and stops. TWELVE THACTOKS REPLACE NINETY MILES. Me. Swift stated in his announcement of the plan that twelve tractors, costing in the neighborhood of SIO.QOO would replace the ninety animals now in us# Those who do cot believe the plan will be successful state that It is not possible to do tbe work with levs than twenty - > two tractors, twenty to be kept ic service and two to b held In reserve to replace machines which break down They Relieve there would be frequent breakdowns because tractor drivers cost mere than Labor costs under the proposed plan would be much higher than at present because tractor drivers cost more thaa mule drivers, officials say. If the sanitary board desires to speed up the collection it might do so by elimi--natieg the long trip ftom the city bams at 118* Shelby street to the starting points of various collection routes, city officials say. t icier toe plan "now followed all of the collection trains with the exception of a few animals and wagons kept In far outlying points start from the barns in the morning. Thus, it Is ne< esaary for the equipment and snimals which serve far distant territory, such as that north of Thirty-Eighth street to travel several miles before actual collection can be started. Two hours per day Is lost lu the long trips to and from the barns. offiMali estimate To do awsy with this It has been suggested that the city maintain several small barns close ♦o the districts from which the several units collect.

SCHOOL BOARD ADVISORS QUIT, END BOND FIGHT __________ (Continued From Pago One,) tacks upon them as haring been due to “petty spite, political wire pulling and the malice of a disgruntled newspaper." “At no time have they received compensation commensurate with their service," she continued. “To discontinue these contract* is a decidedly backward step for the school city.” SERVICES OF GREAT MEN SACRIFICED. However, she made the recommendation that the resignations be accepted. In finishing Mrs. Tutewiler sai%, “l only hope the public may realize in time what this firm has stood for; what they huve done for the school city of Indianapolis and may also learn to appreciate the great services of these two men needlessly sacrificed.” After Mr. Snider has made his statement he gathered up his papers and. with bis partner Mr. Kotz, left the room while Mrs. Tutewiler was reading her tribute to them. Mrs. Tutewiler stopped the reading momentarily and requested that Mr. Snider and Mr. Kotz return and hear her through. This they did but left immediately afterwards without saying a Vord in reply. Clarence Crlppln, a board member, then moved that the resignations be accepted. Here came the surprise of the afternoon when Charles L. Barry, generally recoglzed as an opponent of the work recommended by the building adviser and bis Arm, arose and offered a substitute motion that the resignations be not accepted to take piece at once, but be taken under advisement. Mr. Barry explained that while he had generally opposed recommendations made by Mr. Snidpr and his firm he did not vjueation their ability or Integrity, and pointed out that when they first were employed to make a survey of school conditions they spent more money than they received for their services and when offered payment to cover the reficlt they refused it. Mr. Barry called attention to the fact that the contracts provided for sixty to ninety days' notice before abrogation and he suggest'd that the board take advantage of these clauses and retain the services of Mr. Snider and of Snider A Rots until nfter legal advice had been obtained and the matter was discussed with the State board of accounts. The motion failed for want of a second, although Bert S. Gadd expressed himself in fnvor of it in a general way. Mr. Gadd blamed the entire trouble over the contracts on the State board of accounts. BOARD OF ACCOFNTS BECOMES ENEMY. “When this board l3st year appointed C- W. Bnrton superintendent of buildings •nd grounds.” Mr. Gadd said. “It incurred the encmity of the State board of accounts, and that board has ridden us ever since. I cannot believe there is any sense of Justice emanating from that board." The resignations were then accepted by ■ a vote of three to one, Mrs Tutewiler, Mr. Gadd and Mr. Crippin voting for acceptance and Mr. Barry voting in the negative. W. D. Allison, the fourth member of the board is out of the city. Balph W. Douglass, business director for the board, called attention to the fact that with twelve buildings under coa-

The Exposition Memorial Auditorium, a* It is called, occupies an entire block, fml Is located at a central point, easily accessible from all sections of the city. The auditorium was erected by the Pan-Pacific International Exposition for the specific use of the conare-e and conventions which met at San Francisco in 1915.

struetion or contract, there is great necessity for the board to take some Immediate steps to take care of the situation, and he advised the board to make every effort to induce Mr Allison to return to the city for a special meeting within the next few days. Just what will be done to handle work now under way is uncertain, although there 1> every possibility that Mr. Burton, superintendent of buildings and grounds, will be called upou to do a great amount of supervisory work until some definite arrangements can eh made t>y the board The resignations of Mr. Snider and his firm tnerk the cu'mlnatlon a long aerie, of quarrels and dissension over the two contracts. The contract provided, in th“ case of Mr Snld°r sir individual that h.e should be employed by the board aa building advisor and for bis services, should be paid 1 per cent of the cost of all general contract work, engineering x eepted. Th firm and Snider A Rot/, were holders of a contract providing that they should id as engineers and reeelve p pr cent on all engineering work. The Snider & Rci contract was entered Into In Febrnary. 1919, and the contra-t with Mr. Snider as building advisor about a year later U. S. 1 eth. attorney general of Indiana several months ago gave an opinion to the tSate board of accounts In which be said the contracts were against tbe spirit of the law in that Snider as an emp'oye of the board had an Interest i na contract with that board. Last week the State board of s -counts declar-d the ■ entrants illegal and recommended suit so recover all money paid under them and to prevent further payments According to the State board of accounts credits of about > 1 itVcOO have been given Mr. Snider and bis firm under the contracts. This figure is considerably in excess of that given by Mr. Suider. Just what effect the resignation will have upon the action of the State board of tax commissioners on the proposed $547,000 bond issue to carry out the building program is a matter of considerable speculation. agree new SCHOOLS NEEDED. At the two hearings already held members of the tax board had no hesitancy in saying that there is a great and grow ing necessity fdr more school buildings in the city. The Snider and Hotz contracts also came in for a large share of the discussion and at the last hearing almost the entire evening was given over to tbeir consideration. The remonstrators based their cas* almost wholly on the alleged Illegality and extravagance of these contracts and after the hearing many observers frankly said that were this feature discussion removed from consideration there would be little doubt that, the board would approve the bond issue. The resignation of Mr. Snider and his firm have removed these contracts from consideration and the hearing in the House of Representatives this afternoon will determine what bearing this will have on the action of the State board of tax commissioners. SNIDER READS HIS RESIGNATION. In part. Mr. Snider, in presenting bis resignation, said: “I have requested the holiness director to call this special meeting of the board of school commissioners in order that I may address this communication to you. “This board knows how disinterestedly I, as your building ndvisor, and the firm of Snider A Rotz, as your engineers, have worked always for the best interest di the school city. Regardless of our efforts along this line there has been, par tirularly of late, a well-organized, persistent and unscrupulous attack, which has from time to time taken different turns and angles, each time after having failed to stampede the board or ourselves. The last method of attack is based upon objection to tbe contracts between the board and L. A. Snider and Snider & Rotz. Teh public has been purposely and

The seating capacity of the main auditorium is 12,000 and that of the two smaller halls 750 and 090 respectively. Altogether there are eleven halls _ and nineteen smaller rooms In the building. By a series of rolling partitions, several of the larger of these rooms may be thrown together and converted Into halls each seating about 250 people. There are thirty-seven separate exits; fourteen stairways, each eight feet wide, ascending to the upper floors; and twenty-six checking rooms.

After some hesitation I agreed to do this work for the l ourd and in so agreeing obligated myself to do for the board practically anything that it required tue to do with reference to gutidlug work, not only on new coni struetion, but on maintenance, upkeep and operation of the ninety school and library plants already in existence, al though by the terms of the contract I was to i-ceive a fee based only upon that portion of the work done which applied to new construction work. “It is s°t forth clearly by the terms of this contract that, as professional advisor. I have absolutely no connection with or receive no Pres on any engineering work, therefore It is difficult to understand how any one in fairness could twist the language of the contract in such a way as to misinform the public. Every member snd officer of this board knows of the manner in which I have, 0 n every proposition, a ways sought to decrease and lower tbe cost of the building work Every architect employed on this work also knows, and knows this even better than the board members. Absolutely no person can sny without making a false statement that in any single particular have I ever done otherwise.

FALSE STORIES OF MONEY’ PAID. “Various erroneous statements have been made through the press, regarding the amounts of money paid to L. A.

Certainly there has heen an absolute disregard of what must be a self-evident fact, fhxt we cannot conduct our business with Its large corps of engineering assistants and clerical force without having it cost us many thousands of dollars per year. Out of the fee* received we hare paid salnr.es.

"No person can say, and no one will say with any truth, that Individually or as a firm we have stood in the way of the progress and development of the schools of this city. Realizing how maliciously ilnfair every attack upon us has been, and how all of these attacks have been made, not because of our actions, but In order to gain certain political and personal ends, and realizing as well the legality of our contracts and the justness of our claims, we must, nevertheless, be influenced in this situation solely by our sincere desire to be of all possible benefit and aid to the schools and the board. In terminating the contract for services as professional advisor the board will recognize the fact that practically all of the service contemplated to be rendered has been rendered, and that if these four buildings contemplated should be constructed they would probably constitute the fulfillment of the intensive program to catch up with the situation caused by the years of neglect. As professional advisor I have aided the board in establishing a standard of construction and a type of building of maximum efficiency from the educational standpoint wirn the absolute minimum of lost 6pace and wasted expenditure.

Kid House and Battling Senate Fight Bout for Prestige- Weight Title V By GEORGE K. HOLMES, International News Service Staff Correspondent. WASHINGTON, July 12.—While the attention of some 105,000,000 of people in the United States has been focussed In recent weeks on the DempseyCarpentler fight, the Irish muss and Innumerable other encounters tie wide world over, there has been going on right here In Washington a battle no less earnest, no less hotly contested, even though leas speeatcular. Puglltstically speaking, the affair might be termed the fight between Kid House and Battling Senate. The prize is prestige In the legislative functioning of the Government. Kid House is beginning to “come back.” He was almost knocked ont during the war and the late unpleasantness regarding the League of Nations, which followed It. At least, he has been groggy for several years, and has been more or less content to “hang on” and let Battling Senate do all the leading.

But It’s different now. Still speaking from a pugilistic standpoint, the head of Kid House is beginning to clear up from the war hammering, the. mist is beginning to fade from the eyes and he is beginning to send In a punch or two himself. Tho "Founding Fathers,” to use President Harding's favorite expression, either wisely or unwisely decreed in the Constitution that the Senate should have the say in matters affecting foreign affairs. treaties and whatnot, while to the House should go the privilege of exclusive authorship in the matter of taxation and fiscal affairs. INITIATION WINS IN THE SENATE. There wasn’t much argument over taxes during and Immediately after the war. Bills we.e Introduced and passed without much palaver and spectacle. The doings of the House didn’t find the front page very often. , It wag different In the Senate. In that select body there was a bitter, relentless, oratorical and most spectacular battle being waged over whether the United State* should or should not become a member of the League of Nations. For da>s it hell the front pages of the Nation, Rnd names like Johnson, Borah, Hitchcock, Reed, Lodge, irreconcilable, l itter ender. mild reservatlouist, etc., became f rover engraved in the American mind. Gradually tbe House was pushed into the hnckeround so far as popular interest arid the news of tbe day went. Indeed, the members of the House themselves were wont to slip out of their seats and over into tbe Senate chamber to see the fireworks there. There was little doing in the House; so little, in fact, that the House began to be looked upon by members of the rising generation as a sort of appendix to the senatorial body, which could Just as well dispensed with. The Senate furnished the Initiative in most things and the H<n*e rubbed-stamped its acquiescence. But thing* are different now The House beginning to assert itself again. Not ,-itr Is it exercising Is constitutional prerogative* lu a most Independent manner bur in th last few week* it bts even stepped over into the Sena's if domain and son-ed that solemn end austere body to meet it as an equal in fixing a matter of foreign policy. THE REBIRTH OF SPUNK. The Pena'c went ahead and passed the Kuor peace resolution and sent it to the House to be concurred in a* a matter of course. But the House didn't concur.

It had its own idea of how peace should be declared between the United States and Germany, and It embodied that Idea in the Porter resolution. The Senate was shocked beyond words. What was this, Insurgency! It was. Emphatically so. The House wouldn't budge. Neither would the Senate. In the end they both concede a bit and the redrafted Knox-Porter resolution was finally passed and signed by the President. But It was a bit of a blow to Senatorial dignity. HOUSE WINS ON ARMY FILL.
