LEAGUE BOOSTS . SCHOOL BOARD MAJORITY FOUR Organization Sends Letter to Teachers as Election Draws Near. REFERS TO SALARIES In a special letter to the school teachesr of the city the Better Schools Learie has made a strong arpea! tor support for Mrs. Julia Belle Tutewtlder. Clarence E. Crippin, Fred I. Willis and Albert Sratfh, candidates for school commissioner farored by that organization. The letter points out in no uncertain term, that in the face of bitter and unfair opposition the majority members of the present school board have had the courage to carry out a progressive school policy that has resulted lu Increasing the salaries of teachers from a point where they “were a disgrace to a civilized community” to the present figures. The teachers are warned that if the reactionary financial interests now striving for the control of the board gain control on. of the first steps will be to cut teachers’ salaries. DISECTS ATTENTION TO IMPROVEMENTS. Attention Is also directed to the improvements that have been nliade in buildings and equipment since the majority members of present board came into control. The letter is as follows: “The Better Schools League asks the support of all teachers of the Indianapolis schools for* its ticket, the members of which are pledged to a continuance of bthe progressive policies of the majority "of the present board. T*>e league feels that this support will be given cheerfully and loyally because the teachers know better than any one else the marked Improvement of school conditions under the present board. ‘ The majority of the present board deserves your support because It has bad the courage to carry out a progreisive school policy in the face of the must bitter and unfair opposition. You well know that when this board took Oifice, tho financial iupport of the schools was Utterly lnad uate. The board lost no time in obtaining the necessary legislation to enable it to pay better salaries and to r.-pair and enlarge the buildings. “In 1917, the salaries of teachers in Indianapolis were a disgrace to a civilized community. There is no need of giving you the figures—you know- them to your sorrow—s->' K> minimum, $975 maximum. Contrast with that the present schedule —sl.lloo minimum, $2,000 maximum, and Wlthxthe further assurance that adequate salaries will be maintained and further increases made if the current rates of pay in the country at large continue to Justify it -lake no mistake—if the reactionary financial interests now charging this board with extravagance and now seek'ng to get control of the school organization are successful, the first measure of economy will be to cut the teachers Salaries because that is the item which takes most of the school money. "Not only has the board Increased the salaries b it it has improved the buildings and equipment. Thirty buildings are now in first-class condition—new plumbing, ntw heating and ventilating, newly painted walls and improved lighting. These Improvements have been made not spasmodically but in accordance with a well developed plan which contemplates nothing less thin the fixing up of all the buildings and maintaining them in firstclass condition. You know of th--se Improvements better than any one else. "The members of the Better Schools League ticket arc committed to a policy |of real progre'j The opposition is no "less definitely committed to a policy of reaction. If the teachers of this city help to bring upon the schools the kind of adirlnlstratinn advocated by the opposition, will pu: the schools back on the basis thev were on In 1917. No teacher who has the interest of the Indianapolis schools at h-art will be a party to such an action. The policy of seeing with how small an amount the schools can be maintained has prevailed too long in Indianapolis. “We appeal to you to stand by those who have supported the schools, who have loyally fought the fight for better salaries and better buildings and are now under fire for daring to do it. Unless those who have the true interests of tho schools at heart now come to their support, with their influence and votes, a reactionary administration is inevitable.”

VALUES MOVIES AS BEST MEANS OF TEACHING William A. Brady Addresses Photo Indorsers and Parent-Teachers. “Moving pictures are the greatest means for circulating Americanization propaganda that we have." declared William A. Brady of New York, president of thr National Association of the Motion Pic ture Industry, in bis talk in the Palm room of the Claypool hotel yesterday given under the auspices of the Indian; Indorsers of Photoplay and the Parent Teacher Association. | “No industry gave more valuable aid to the Government during the war with out cost to the Government than the motion picture,” he stated < mphatically. Mr. Brady cited how at the presen* time tho screen is being need for the aid of the unemployed at the direct refines* of President Harding. He said that iGreat Britain the government was begin Bing to tak * heed of the serpen and a one diplomat said, “they are Americnnlz Ing the world.” In Japan, Mr. Brady stated more people formed their opinion of America by moving pictures than by any other factor It Is the best antidote for hatred there Is,” he said. Censorship win rapidly scored and unBrady as unnecessary, unfair and uq American. lie soland that lowing fonr or five people to Judge what, thousands of people should see was rldlcnlons. In most cases some of which he cited, appointments were political. Brady stated that there were laws prohibiting the showing of indecent pictures and that what the cities needed was not censorship, but proper police authorities. Be told of how the reputable produce! s had standardised pictures, had banded together and drawn up rulings as to the characters of pictures with a penalty affixed for those not holding to the standard. The action was taken in March, 1921, and Mr. Brady declared that in the six month's time that practically 90 per cent of objectionable films had been eliminated and In six months more, be predicted that the other 10 per cent would disappear. Mr. Brady congratulated the Indiana Indorsers on their work In Indiana, saying that they had done more In the movement for good pictures than any censor board. He pledged the aid of the producers and his federation to the Indorsers the .Parent, Teachers, Church i Federation and educators of Indiana to "prevent the making and exhibiting of disreputable films. He said that the producer wanted the help and co-op-eration of such bodies. **The motion picture men want your help, they do not want to be branded as a criminal class,” he said. We should not be Judged by one black sheep, that one person should not ruin the remainder of motion picture people In public opinion any more than the misbehavior of one banter or one priest would brand all the b inkers and church leaders as bad. Don’t Judge us by our black sheep! Judge us by what we want to do, what we are doing, for ws are holding In our hands something sreaderful. a great Ins tr ament for do-

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia—About the time that our party landed in Australia, the papers were carrying many articles, most of them derisive, about the efforts of the state of Queensland to borrow $10,000,000 from the financiers In England. I noted that the official delegated to do the borrowing came home In disgust and 1 Jotted down in my notebook a memorandum to discover why Queensland's credit was no good. It seemed rather strange that a state which every one in Australia boosted as one of the greatest In natural resources, as the one with the greatest possibilities In an agricultural way, with, the most miles of railways, with tremendous assets In the way of state-owned properties, should not be able to borrow $10,000,000. When finally I got to Queensland and burrowed Into the question It was quickly answered. Not only was every asset pledged as security for its debts, but it wa* scarcely able to pay the interest on Its loans, for It would have taken around a fourth of the entire revenue of the state. Two months after the London biukers had firmly and flatly refused even to consider making the loan I was in Brisbane, the captial of Queensland, and I read that the government had raised the $10,000,000 among the people of the state themselves. “Well,” thought I, "no matter what the bankers may think, the people of Queensland themselves have unlimited confidence in their state government and its ability to pay out.” Reading on further, however, I learned that only 5,000 persons out of the 700.000 in the state had subscribed to the loan, and accompanying this news was a veiled threat that the government, even then preparing to float another loan, contemplated passing a law requiring all the people to subscribe to loans according to their wealth. Frankly. I don't see how else the state of Queensland ever will be able to borrow any considerable amount and at the same time I should hate to be In the shoes of the legislators who passed such a law. Never In real life have I read a more weird story of financial Jazzing such as has gone on during tho'slx years In which the I.abor party has had control in Queensland. When finally the uate gets to the point where it cannot squeeze another loan from any source, i wonder what will happen. UNITED STATER BANK MAKES BIG LOAN. This article was written in Queensland several months ago The Queensland government has not changed. The British financiers still consider It a bad risk and will not renew the loans. But to my great surprise I heard the other day that the largest bank in the United States—

ing good, and we want co-operation and fair play." He predicted that in five years time, movies will he installed in the schools over the world as the foremost factor in education, that remarkable operations of great surgeons will all be screened, that a moving picture machine will oa just as much a part of the household as the victrola Is now. CHEAP BANDITS TAKE COIN OF CAR CONDUCTOR Hold Up English Avenue Man and Pilfer Pockets of $16.50 Cash. Two bandits held up and robbed a street ear conductor at English avenue and the Belt railroad early today. Wilbur Hardy, Jiving at the LaSalle hotel, conductor on an English avenue street car, was making an outbound trip and the only persons on the street car besides the motorman and conductor were two men who boarded it downtown. Suddenly the shorter of the two men drew a revolver and walked to the front end of the car. Hardy was In front talking to Mnrt'n Feeney, 1406 East Market street, motorman. “Hold up your hands," ordered the man with the revolver ns the car stopped for the Belt railroad crossing. Then he relieved Hardy of $16..*>0. The tall man joined the short robber and they walked away, escaping before the police arrived. Burglars en’orod the home of Mrs. Ella Middleton, 422 Kansas street early today by forcing a side window and took a small bank containing S2O. Frank E. Maher. 1022 Pleasant street, reported a box of tools stolen from the Nordyke & Marmon plant. The tools were valued at SIOO. C. E. Mills. 3545 North Capitol avenue, told *the police a thief stole a cujhion seat from, his automobile yesterday while the car was parked on New York street near the Federal building. James Kirkpatrick saw a negro attempting to set fire to a shed in the rear of his home last night. Kirkpatrick pursued the negro but the man escaped. A burglar entered the home of Mrs. Roy Brown, 532 Gray street, yesterday afternoon. A gold bracelet worth $lO and $3 In money were taken. As Mrs. Brown returned home she saw a negro run through tb*|alley In the rear of her residence. Two white boys about 18 years old grabbed the purse of Olive Stetten, 118 West Walnut street, last night while she was walking on Illinois street near St. Clair street. The thieves ran through an alley and escaped The purse worth $3, contained $3.40 ands gold locket. Ed Castle, 2004 Brookside avene, reported a motor meter stolen from his automobile in front of his horns last night. The meter was valued at sls. John Hampton, 607 Wilmington avenue bought anew overcoat for $35 yestjrday and later in the day reported it itolen from a railroad freight depot at Delaware end South street*.

To the right of the photograph, loom up the ornate piles of masonry which house the various Government Departments. To the left is shown the principal portion of the downtown business district with tall business and office buildings. Right through the town runs the river, tapping the wholesale districts which border its. banks. Brisbane Is situated on the Brlsbnne River, less taan twenty miles from the sea. The city proper stands about fifty-seven feet above sea level and is a city of hills On a sunny morning in a laud where the weather is nearly always bright, the approach to the city across the blue waters of Moreton Bay is full of charm. Besides being the metropolis of tbs State, Brisbane is the port aid trade center of a rich area of country. The agricultuial and dairy products'of the Moreton districts and of the famous Darling Downs, the golden

the New Tork City National—had loaned | the Queensland government $10,000,000. - Somebody must have got a big split for j putting over a rotten loan like this, { while good American institutions are feeding money. The I,abor party came into power in 1914., The cost of living was the issue and the rallying cry was “cheap bread, cheap beef and high wages.” When the reins of government were turned over to the laburlties it soon became evident how they intended to carry out their pledges. 1 It was by means of legislation, Jnst ss ! if law’s could regulate supply and de- ; maud—the r“al factors in determining wages and cost of food. To the credit of the laborltes they made an attempt to ■ do what they bad promised, but new, almost seven years later, I find that In spite of the legislation they have passed th 6 cost of living in Queensland is 94 8 fier cent higher than when they took charge and wages only 40 per cent high > er. Wages are determined by an arbl- j tratlon court which makes uwards In ' each trade or line of work. While we were in Brisbane the court in hnudlng down a decision on certain wages dropped a gentle hint that the limit had been reached, that It would consider no more application* for increases, but believed the time had come when Australia, like the rest of the world, had to begin to think about bringing down wages to a normal basis. “What Is going to happen to the arbitration court when it tries that?" I asked a newspaper reporter who has long “covered” the court for his paper. He threw out his hands in an explosive sort of way. “Then the court goes biooey,” he replied. “Labor will compel the government which It has put in power to abolish the court and return to collective bargaining. The court was fine when It was raising wages and compelling the employer to pay them, but it will be no good when it tries to lower wages and i make labor accept Its decision*.’’ As an Instance of how the court works I am golnsr to cite an award made while I was in Brisbane It fixed the wages of carpenters at $5.25 a day, every day—whether It be a day on which work could be done or a rainy day, when no work could be done, or a holiday, when no Australian will work at all. If It was essential to work on a holiday the court decided that the men mats be paid ! double wages. What wag the result? Why, building operations stopped en- | tirely and there was more unemployed to be added to those who had already been I thrown out of work by similar awards In J other lines. ! Employers who closed down because j they said they could not make a profit and pay the wages awarded are facing ! another ordeal. The government re- ' ta’iated by preparing a law which says that any company may be compelled to I

SINCERITY AND ECONOMY STILL RALSTON MOTTO Democratic Leader Covers City’s Length Preaching Good Government. From the extreme north end of Indianapolis to the extreme south end, Boyd M. Ralston, Democratic nominee for mayor, traveled last night preaching a doeirlne of sincerity In office and of an economical administration. The candidate’s meetings carried him . from Thirty-Eighth street and Grnceland avenue through Indiana avenue to Haughvllle and finally to tho extreme southern part of the city at a motion picture theater nt Raymond and Shelby streets. One of the meetings was In the heart of the negro district at Indiana avenue and West street. Perhaps fifty negroes gathered around the red lights on the truck from which Mr. Ralston spoke. He urged the negro voters to think about the things involved la tho campaign and to take sides on vital questions. “Don’t you realize you have friends on one side as well as on the other?” he asked. Mr. Ralston laid much stress on tho lawlessness that existed during the last days of tho Shank administration, and he declared that should race riots break out there would be no more effort to stop them than there was to stop the riots then. He took occasion to deny reports which have been spread to the effect that Samuel V. Perrott is to be appointed chief of police should the Democrats be successful. He declared that there is no question of race In the election and that Mr. Shank Is stirring up race prejudice Ly appealing to negroes as negroes and not simply as citizens. At Thirty-Eighth street and Graceland avenue he predicted Democratic victory If those who have pledged support to the party vote the way they have pledged. He declared that he believed In holding taxes down and that he believed in law enforcement. In a meeting at a home at 81 Frank street, on the south side, he appealed to the sentiment of the homes and declared this would be reflected in the city administration. He also pledged an ecocomio government and the holding down of taxes. “I am going to give the south side what It wants,” he said. “I am going to put the value back into your property.” An appeal was made to the woman voter at another home meeting at 732 East McCarty street. Mr, Ralston told the women present that they had been given the franchise because it was believed their vote would mean clean government. He said they will be put to the test next Tuesday. “We have a man on one side of this contest with one kind of a following and a man on the other side with another kind of a following. It is your duty to make your choice,” he said. “If a man once w&* weighed In the balance and

In the hotel at which we stopped in Brisbane the woman owner w’an much out op over a law which effected her staff of employe# For twenty years she had had tho same cook* and they had built up s reputation for splendid cooking, to the truth of which I will cheer fully testify. Y'et notice had served on her that she must dispense with these cooks because they were nonunion, and In their stead must take the first unemployed cooks whose names appeared on the books of the cooks' union. “I went down and looked them over,” she walled. “Two of them were last employed as cooks In a sheep-shearing camp and the next ones on the list were ex-army cooks!” I am glad that the time limit in which she had to make the change did not expire until after I had left Brisbane. When the labor party started In to lower the cost of living it made tho attempt through engaging In the various businesses which handle food products. It Jumped cheerfully Into the cattleraising business and bought twenty two cattle stations, it opened fifty one butcher 1 shops in various parts of the State, it ; took over five fisheries, it bought and equlppod a fishing trawler for deepens work and opened shops for selling ! fish, If took over a meat packing plant and a canning works, it Installed a pro- ! duee agency which proposed to handle all kinds of produoe without paying profits to a middleman, and. as a final attempt, opened Its own hotel. I The cattle stations are not yet paid for, the deep-sea fishing was found to be too expensive, and tho trawler had [to go so far away from Brisbane that its cargo spoiled before it oould get back, other fish cannot bo sold at a profit after the state has paid the fishermen for their catch, and the other food businesses are not much more prosperous. To give the devil his duo, the fishing business did succeed In running off the s! rest* the peddlers who used to offer tainted fish for sale, and today they must get their wares from the state wholesale shop, which insures the freshness of the catch. All of these businesses ; must be paid for some dsy because the state bought mostly on credit. Naturally, Brisbane, having most of | the population for which It was intend •ed to lower the cost of living, is the place by which to Judge tlie remits of tho campaign to lower the co*t of living | The cost of living in Brisbane in 1921 i is 100.4 per cent higher than it was in ,19141

found wanting. If he said the Job was too big for him, you would be foolish to employ him again, no discredited union labor by resigning as mayor.” Mr. Haiston repeated his demand* that Mr. Shank tell the real reason why he resigned as mayor. He declared that j civic and commercial Indianapolis will | never prosper until official Indianapolis j does its duty to the city. At the meeting at a theater at Ray j mond and Shelby streets, Mr. Ralston re j posted ids assertions that he Is saying j nothing in the campaign to hurt the) feelings of R.epubilcar i. “Much propaganda s being spread concerning my religion and my dealings with people,” be said. ‘'This is being done for the purpose of discrediting me. Religion doe* not enter into poll tlcß. } am of the Presbyterian fnith and I grant every one hla chosen faith." , H* repeated his statement that the sonth side has been neglected. “I have never been given a chance to show what I could do on the south side The South side has a right to demand the things it wants and I believe the city government should give it what It wants." RUSSIA WATCHES COMING PARLEY Soviet Nation Interested in Allied War Debt. MOSCOW, Nov. 2.—Via London, Nov. 3. —The soviet government, while not In- ; vited to participate, Is keeniy interested I in the forthcoming conference at Wash- j lugton. Karl Kadok, writing today in the Soviet organ, Pravda, points out that ; the soviet government’s offer to recognize i the Czarist foreign debts up to 1914 was made on the eve of the Washington meet- | ing. It was revealed that the soviet was reluctant to undertake this stop. “While France and. even wealthy Eng- j land desire America to cancol the allied war debts, the soviet government considers it unjust that the great powers should insist upon impoverished, starving Russia recognizing the foreign debts of tho old Czaritu regime,” said Radek. "If the soviet recognizes the Czarist debts the Washington conference will ha ve to decide whether the big powers shall help Russia economically or continue the old intervention policy.” Riot in Jerusalem Leads to Four Dead LONDON, Nov. 3. —Four Jews and one Arab were killed by a bomb during an outhreak of violence in Jerusalem, said a News Agency dispatch from that city today. 11l feeling between Jews and Arabs have led to numerous clashes.

fleece of the West and Southwest, and the coal of West Moreton, all claim Brisbane as their port of shipment. Every year sees a groat increase In the wharfage accommodation of the port, and steamers of the largest class can now come right up to the city wharves. The population of Brisbane (including South Brisbane) and suburbs was 173,504 persons at the end of 1917. Brisbane is a hearty place. If there is any poverty among its Inhabitants appearances are certainly deceptive for every one seems well dressed and contented In this summer city. Woodpaved streets, electric tramways, handsome public and commercial buildings, banks, fine shoos, factories, many parks, botanic gardens, good hotels, libraries, museums, churches, colleges, hospitals, docks, markets, theaters, clubs, cases, race cources, baths and recreation grounds make Brisbane a modern city, in spite of the fact that fifty years ago Its population was less than a thousand pople.

But not only does the state operate businesses having to do with the coat of living It has tackled mining to the extent of six mines, the lumber business to the number of four sawmilla, a savings bank (which by the way has deposits of $70,(100,000, a greater amount per head of population than any other state), a .id an insurnco compny handling all lines. The bank handles aV of the advance to settlers and the money which is advanced for the erection of homes for the workers. However, the advances, once limited to small amounts sufficient to let a workingman build a home, have been Increased so greatly that men of means have been able to borrow enough to build expensive homes and the little fellow has to watt until the state gets more money before he can borrow. Railways have taken the biggest part of the money spent by the state under labor control, about 52 per cent to bo exact. The interest on Its debt, education, police and its business undertakings have eaten up the remalner. Nothing has been spent to get the greatly needed immigrant, nothing on good roads, nothing on telegraphs, nothing on harbors or lighthouses, and nothing on the national defense. GOVERNMENT I t lI.DINGS EXTREMELY ORNATE. The visitor to Brisbane will find near the downtown business section groat pile* of masonry, handsome, ornate buildings which house the state departments. They are, Indeed, a credit to the state—but they coat money the state could ill afford to spend. Other states in far better flnanclsl condition are still content to have their office* in whatever buildings are availsble, but not so tn Queensland. The railways, upon which *o much ha,i been spent, have not been able to pay for themselves. The rail employes have been doubled under the present governient, but the number of train miles run has been cut 10 per cent. Fare* have baen low nnd other expenses Incident to travel lower, but Queenaland. with more rails than any other state, had a deficit last year more than three times as great as the next highest state and took in less money per mile than any of them. TAXATION RECEIPTS ARE INADEQUATE. The revenues of the State—from taxation. railway*, the Islands attached to Queensland, the receipts from licenses, etc,, and the money received from the federal government ' Queensland's share of the custom , has fallen far short of It* needs. Yet taxation has been increased almost 300 per cent under labor government. In 1914 it was Just short of $7 per head of population. In 1920 it was Just over S2O per head.

W. D. Boyce, snapped after a little stroll across the river to South Brisbane, which is one cf the half dozen distinct business Center* which make up the whole of Brisbane. Bach of these districts Is virtually a little city in itself and ha* characteristic* which are not to be found in the other*. For instance, one district is known as the toughest, another is the slums, a third Is almost rural. Persons who are inclined to smile at such government finance, as most of them are. will be interested to know that the premier—the man who is the actual ruler of the state —once was a miner, the treasurer formerly was clerk of a sheep shearers’ union, and the two men who have been at ono time or another head of the railways were a shearer aud a clerk, respectively. Queenslanders, when you mention their state government to them, remind me of nothing so much as an audience which has gone to attend a highly advertiaed •how and found it "ao punk It is good,” and have given the performers an encore Juat to see what will happen next. That Is what the Queenslanders did in 1920. for they returned the labor government to power. Surely ail this has had an effect on business, you will say. It has, and here is what has happened, as shown by the official figures of the labor government Itself. Not a single crop has Increased in production or even equaled the previous production; mineral production has dropped, and. with the exception of ono banner year, the number of vessels calling at Queensland ports has fallen lower aud both Imports and exports dropped off. On the other hand manufacturing has Increased despite the higher cost of production, and the number of livestock Increased. Yet the biggest bank in tho United States takes on a loan to this busted state.
