PRESSURE FROM FAMILY CAUSE OF SMALL MOVE Governor of Illinois Abandons Plans' to Fight and Will Accept Trial. VENUE CHANGE AGREED SPRINGFIELD. 111.. Aug. 17.—'TV sudden coEapoe of the “war’" pinna of Governor Lon Small of Illinois, was doe to family “Treasure,” it was learned here today. The Governor, It was reported, has abandoned all plans to delay the trial on charges of misusing s2.soo,<Xk> in Slate interest funds and to test the legality of his arrest. In this decision the Governor entirely ignored the wishes of his legal advisers. Ho finaJly surrendered, his intimates said, to the platts of Mrs. Small and members of the family. The strain of his legal difficulties on members of his family, it was said, had seriously concerned the Governor. Since the Issuance of bench warranti for the Governor's arrest, Mrs. Small has gone into retirement at the family home In Kankakee. It was her wish, i twax said, that the Governor abandon his war plans and go Into court with the sole purpose cf repudiating the charge* brought egalnse him in the Sangamon County eo art. The Governor, through counsel, late yesterday accepted the offer of State's Attorney C. Fred Mortimer to a change of venue from this county. The acceptance was based on four clauses, the principal one of which retained tho right to file any futnre action on any phase of the case, excepting change of venue. All fotr clauses were accepted by the State's attorney In a reply which he made public. The State's attorney declared hla first offer had held no “catch,” the Governor's counsel having taken exception to certain wording. Mortimer also agreed to the Governor's t iggestioa that attorneys for both sides spree upon another county in which the case shall be tried. lie announced that Judge E. S. Smith, who issued tbe bench warrants for Small's arrest, would designate the Circuit Judge to decide the petition for a change of venue. This petition will be heard Tuesday, Sept. 6. The jurist will be either Frank B. Burton of Judge Norman 1.. Jones. The habeas corpus proceedings which the Governor's counsel had insisted would be his “trump card” is apparently abandoned by the chief executive's most recent move. His attorneys, however, retained the right to file this action in asking for the change of venue. The State's Attorney also agreed that the Governor had .not waived his right to this action. The "test,” however, is now a very re- j mote possibility.

IRISH SPURN PEACE; ARMY IS PREPARED (Continued From Page One.) Eireann will cot withhold peace from Ireland, because they are patriotic men and women.” There was an imposing scene at Man- , sion House when th second session of parliament opened. Crowds wasted for hours for the doors to open, for it had been advertised the first part of the session would be open to the public. Tbs following order was read to all officers and men of the ranks of the Irish republican army: “Communications between the Irish re publican government and the British government have been made public and serve to emphasize towards the officers and men of the Irish republican army i the paramount importance of being prepared for every contingency the. may arise from a military standpoint. Now as always. In safeguarding the rights and liberties of the Irish people, they depend cn the Irish republican army It Is our business to be efficient and highly trained as possible and ready for every emergency. No ouportuulty should be neglected in Improving our drill and training and in making ourselves truly effective soldiers of the Irish republican army. The republic exists now and always will.” “It remains for us to do our best in Its •errice. realizing that sacnifi'-es we have already made may be less than those we shall be called upon to make In tb® future. The future lyles with us If we do our utmost. BRITONS A'*’AlT MOVE OF I PISH LONDON'. England, Aug 17. The whole Irish situation once more trembled in the narrow balance between peace and war today. All English eyes, no less than Irish, were fixed on Dublin, where Dali Hirreann, Ip. whose bands the fate of the country lay, considered tbe impassioned words of their leader, Eamon De Valera, who has rejected unqualifiedly the British terms of peace. Meanwhile war clouds rolled np along the darkening horizon witb Black and Tans hurrying back to their posts and British troops returning to Ireland. Eamon D* Va!e:a in a fiery speech, has declared that Dail Eirreann will never accept the. British terms. Here they are considered the limit of generosity. The British cabinet, which reluc'anfly permitted Lloyd George to make his offer of dominion home rule, was uncertain tonight of the outcome and canjed postponemei.t of the premier's statement before the House of Commons. Would tho Dali back up De Valera 7 was the question on every hp. If the Sinn Fein parliament’s answer is that of it* leader, a breaking off of the true* Is feared

London papers AGAINST IRELAND LONDON. Aug. 17.—" There Is no secret that powerful antl-Engll'-h Influence* hare been at work In Ireland in the last few day*, endeavoring to destroy the at moaphcre of peace.” said the Daily Express today In commenting upon the Iriah situation. The political correspondent of the Dally Express was inclined to believe that Eamonn Da Valera s speech was not the decisive Sinn Fein answer to the English offer. The Daily Newa forecast that the English government would never recognize Ireland as a republic. The London Times said the members of the Sinn Fein parliament may take it for a fact that the English mind is made up and that “no rhetoric, no sophistry and no appeal to violence can move the electorates of Britain and her dominions to "yield on the one cardinal point upon which the constitution of the empire rests.” That one cardinal point, the Times points out. Is loyalty to the king and ad mission of the sovereignty of the British government over the British empire. McClure’s Magazine in Receivers’ Hands NEW YORK. Ang. 17.—McClure s Magazine. Inc., was placed In the hands of receiver* today, following equity proceedings in the United States District Court. John B. Johnston and Myles D.

BOOZE DISPOSAL UP TO OFFICIALS Warehouse Storage Rent Places Burden on Government. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON. Aug. 17.—The solution i of the Government's problem in disposing of tbe millions of dollars' worth of liquor seized since the advent of prohi- ! bltion has been put up to Attorney GenI eral Daugherty. It is announced Mr. Daugherty is working out a plan by ! which It is hoped the Government can he relieved of the present heavs burden of paying rent for warehouses in which to store the liquor, j Apparently the recent proposal of Roy ! Haynes, prohibition commissioner, that ! the liquor be poured Into tbe sewers as soon as possible, has not met with approval. Government officials, it is understood. not only desire to eliminate the warehouse rentals, but to realize as much as possible by the legitimate sale of. the | liquor for medicinal or industrial pur- [ poses. Two plang are under general consider ation, the attorney g-neral said. One calls for inspection of the liquor now held by the Government with the view to its sale for medicinal purposes. Much ►of the liquor seized is said to be unfit for human (consumption. The other plan is to redistill the alcohol and dispose of it to industrial firms for commercial purposes.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

the railroad some for which the city waa chargeable The city in the fisting sold s3so.(j<jo worth of track elevation bonds and paid the company $326,792.01. which had been figured as the city's share. POCIF/S KI N IMPROVEMENT. Before actual track elevation was started ten years ago the city and county constructed the Pogue's Bun drain, a necessary part of the protect. The city and county paid all the bills. It being u- '’erstood that the railroads would finance the remainder of the project and that when all was completed the amount spent hy the railroads w<i*ild be balanced with that spent by the city and county and the excess over the percentage for which each was responsible would be checked. Had not the Indianapolis Union Railway become press’d for funds this plan likely r -.uld have 1 cen foil wed to the ad, but win .he road needed money the city al.ored the agreement so as to make the settlement as of April 1, thts year, and monthly thereafter. In balancing the city's expenditure upon P; gue's Run drain with the amount due from the railroad on this score the city claimed credit for $869,438.13, which was the railroad's total responsibility upon thU score. The county was entitled to <lls. 700.54 of the credit because of the fact that it had helped the city construct the drain . ASHBY REVIEWS CASE IN DETAIL. The Union Railway now has on flle with the rounty auditor a claim for $392 080.49. Os this amount the county is entitled to $115,700.54 credit because oi the city's error, Mr. Ashby's opinion holds. "There has been some discussion ,ibou, the wisdom of oniginal allotment hy the former boara of public works under which the conscuction of Pogue's Run drain was allottel to the city and paid for by the city and County as above stated,” says the opinion "The law gave the board of pub!!” works the power to make its allotment of such work between the city and the railroad companies, and all part : es are bound by such former action. The prpgent board of pul 11c works has no power to change the former action, even if It so desired. “However, I do not believe *at the allotment as made and the pr<" edings under the same by which the city and county paid for tho construction of Pogues Run drain can be Justly criticised. "The total amount spent for track elevation to date under said resolution No 7 as modi tied lia- c>een about .<lO 000.090. The city, including Pogue's Run drain, has receiver! hills amounting to $9,505.000 ard there is some considerable work for .which the railroad companies have not yet rendered bills. 'The county's 8 per cent of $10,000,000 would be SBOO,OOO. while the county's payment to tusck elevation to date Including its payment on Pogue's Run drain only amounts to $435.632 80. "At the beginning the arrangement as made might have appeared advantageous to the railroad companies, hut now it wonld appear that some of the railroad | companies are paying t.he full 100 per cert of the cost of track elevation and carrying the account until final settle- | meat."*

Applying to individual taxpayers the Ijot difference of $780,330,000 between these losses and gains, Mr. Fordney said they represented a reduction of $7 per capita, "or a saving to the average family of $35 a year.” Since the repeal of the excess profits tax and the reduction of surtax rates on individual incomes do pot become effective until 1922, Mr. Fordney said $400.250,000 of the contemplated loss of revenue would not be reflected tn revenue collections prior to the calendar year of 1823.

SHORT TERM IS CONDUCIVE TO INEFFICIENCY Educators Say School Head Should Be Out of Politics. Declaring it Is time to cease selecting State Superintendents of Public Instruction “by the rules of political expediency" and that efficiency can not maintained when no superintendent is assured more than a two-year term in office, Herbert Briggs, a member of the executive com* mlttee of the Indiana Educator's Amendment Association, today issued a statement asking support for the proposed constitutional amendment which would make the office of State Superlnten lent appointive instead of elective. Mr. Briggs has charge of vocational education in Terre Haute. His statement. follows. "Sept fi next the people of Indiana will have a chance to vote on thirteen amendments to the State Constitution No. 9 one this list is the ore about which we are talking. No. 9 provides that the State superintendeut of public instruction be appointed instead fit elected. “For seventy years Indiana has elected Its State superintendent of public instruction. We will agree that, the men chosen were tl>e best that could have been found unden the system. We ai*o agree that tbe men chosen have done well under the circumstance*:* x "For seventy years Indiana has chosen Us State superintendent by the rules of political expediency. “Today our best educators demand a change. Citizens) generally demand better results from such a vast expenditure or public money. “No State superintendent can be as sured of more than a two-yean term. Tho best system cannot bo developed under such a short tenure of office. “Fourteen States have changed their method of choosing their State superintendent from election on a State ticket by popular majority, to appointment. These fourteen States have gone steadily upward in their educational rating. "More and more everybody and everything today depends upon education. In a social organization that is ever expanding and enlarging school superintendents have been assigned automatteally to new duties and eularged response llitles. “About a quarter of a century ago, Indiana began to place Its State institutions under the direction of non-partisan boards. So that the Institutions of char tty, benevolence —the reformatories, the correctional and penal institution.- ail are on a good, sound business basis and are in no way subject to oartissn Intm ferenue Incident to a limited tenure or a change in State administrations. “The higher Institutions of learning in the State have never been subject to partisan interference witb their management. “The common schools, then, constitute the only State institution that is not on a non partisan or non political basis It may be news to the people of Indiana tn knew that wirhin the State there is a school population of approximated sno. POO on whom we are spending $50,000,000. Annually, aud yet the general directing head of this vast enterprise is never sure of more than a two year term. The first purpose of the Indiana Educators’ Amendment Association, then, Is to se cure th eadoptlon of amendment No. 0 "The second purpose is to organize a background of popular support so that the State board of edneatlon will be given the privilege of making the appointment, i Then the State board of education will j Pe free to select the best man wherever i he may be found, and retain him through ' a term of years, during which time sound | and progressive educational policies may ! b ebrought forth and applied to the betterment of the State school system. "Another reason for adopting amendment No. 9 Is the fact that Indiana is well within tbe process of taking a Statewide survey and when this Inventory of j oed educational resources has been cotu- | plcted It will be necessary for the State Ito have this important change in its I school machinery In order that the rC- ! suits of this survey may be realized.
