STATEMENTS OF BREWERS UPON BEER ASSAILED Local W. C. T. U. Workers Say Attempt Is Being Made to Fool Public. Local Women’s Christian Temperance Union workers attacked today strenuously statements of brewers that the 3.75 per cent “tonic beer,” authorized to be sold in drug stores, would not make a good beverage. Sale of such beer will be allowed, Prohibition Enforcement Director Lincoln C. Andrews has said. “Plain bunk —such a statement, and merely an attempt to fool the public,” declared Mrs. W. W. Reedy. 1332 Bellefontaine St., chairman of the Christian citizenship department of the Marion County W. C. T. U. The statement to which she referred was made by George Mills, secretary of the Annheuser-Busch Company in St. Louis, and by Fred Pabst Sr. of the Pabst Brewery of Milwaukee. They both declared that the “beer tonic." could bring little cheer to the arid beer drinkers of the country because “the heavier solid content of the beer makes the drink impossinle as a beverage.” Opening Wedge “That is just an attempt to make an opening wedge,” Mrs. Reedy declared. “It is the camel's nose poking under the tent. Why, if this should go through, new drug stores wouldd spring up everywhere, and these drug stores would sell their drugs below cosl because they would refelly be drink shops.” Letter Sent Mrs. Edward Franklin White, reporter of the Indiana Supreme and Appellate Courts, addressed a. letter of indignation to Andrews. “This announcement comes not only as a surprise but as a shock, in view of the terms and provisions of the Volstead act which still stands on our books unrepealed,” Mrs. White wrote. \ ■'The content required of 25 per cent malt does not reduce the percentage of alcohol, nor take away its character as a beverage. Even if it were regarded as a medicine surely it would still be in the prohibited class defined in Section 1 of the Volstead law'. ... If manufacturers do not keep the law, why appear to place dependence on their keeping of their promises?” CONGRESSMAN IS 77 Housing Tribute Paid by House to Representative Fuller. Bn United Press WASHINGTON, March 31—Representative Charles E. Fuller, Republican, Illinois, was given a rousing reception by the House today as a birthday tribute. After Representative Madden, Illinois, Republican, announced that Fuller wagr passing his seventy-sev-tappi milestone today, the entire membership arose and applauded for several minutes. The important English impeachment case was temporarily laid :side so that Madden could render this compliment to his esteemed Illinois colleague.

Huntington County youth, ivho began a prison sentence Tuesday following conviction on a serious statutory charge.

ARGUE SCHOOL SITE QUESTION (Continued From Page 1) and that the temporary restraining order against the board be dissolved. The order prevents the board from taking any action on the school board site matter. liugg contended that the complaint filed shows there was not an emergency that would warrant th§ issuance of a restraining order. He continued his arguments by citing the allegations in his motion to Strike out parts of the complaint. “The board has acted in conformity with the law in regard to the issuance of bonds. Any remonstrance against the bonds should be taken up w r ith the State tax board.”, he stated, referring to protests on bond issue for buying the FortySixth St. site. Right to Change “The location of anew school site is primarily and finally vested in the school board. The board has a perfect right to change its mind and term unwise any action it has taken before.” liugg also argued against the compaint allegation that the board had no right to take money from the special school fund for purchase of the new school site, and that the board would not be violating the city’s zoning ordinance by locating the school on the Forty-Sixth St. site. “The board has powers within its own sphere that cannot be invaded by city authorities, or by any other power,” Hugg stated. To Set Date Following hearing of Hugg’s motions and action of the court a date for the trial for the permanent injunction was to be set. Wiltiam Bosson, Merle N. A. Walker and Emsley W. Johnson, attorneys, were to represent the association in defending its complaint. Petition of the association set out eight reasons w'hy- the school should be located at Thirty-Fourth and Meridian Sts. and alleged the board violated the law' by taking action to buy property without any budget provision. Complaint also alleged that through a tentative agreement with the State tax board the bond issue for the school has been approved, provided that the new Shortridge be erected on Thirty-Fourth St. Brought Fp at Meeting At the school board meeting Tuesday night, the most peaceful since the new' majority faction has taken office, the Shortridge situation was brought uo as “new business.” Board President Theodore Vonnegut said Hugg had advised no action be taken w'hile the court matters were pending. “I don’t think there will be a>ii’ danger of illegality or court contempt if we took some action,” Majority Faction Member Charles W. Ivern said. “We’ve advanced the Shortridge situation as far as we can and any delay is not our fault.” Majority faction members are taking the stand that they attempted to have anew school built immediately. During the early part of the meeting Negroes, who are patrons of School 21, Twenty-Fifth and Rader Sts., asked the board to retain that site instead of moving the school to a now site at Northwestern Ave. and Fall Creek B4vd. “We don’t want to get into this site situation because we might he accused again of constructive fraud.” Kern remarked. Victory Won Assistant Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds Carl W. Eurton won.a triple victory over his superior. Jacob H. 'Hilkene, buildings and grounds superintendent, when the board approved three items of Burton's report rather than placing them in the hands of the buildings and grounds committee and Hilkene. as recommended by Hilkene. The items were expenditures of $‘11,382 for playground repairs, exterior painting of nine grade schools 'and expenditure of $20,387.71 for lighting fixtures and electric wiring in grade schools. Board dismissed Edward Suntmei. '■ustodian at School 10; Oliver I*. Hayslett, custodian at Manual Train : ng High School and John Peters, a storeroom helper. Name of the Thomas Jefferson High School, Negro high school be ing erected at Twelfth and West Sts., was’ changed to Crispus Attacks. after tbe first Negro shot in he Revolution War. This is the third name the build Mg has had. It was fiiat Theodore Roosevelt, then Jefferson. Object to Architect' A letter was received by the board from flhler & original archi

teets for School 42. in which the firm objected to Vonnegut, Bohn & Mueller being selected as architects. Board was restrained by a case in the Hancock Circuit Court from selecting architects for six grade schools. The board, on recommendation of Hugg, at the iast regular meeting rescinded the original contracts and let new ones. Venue of the suit was changed to the Hancock County Court from Marion County. It was filed here by K. K. Wark. employe of Frank Woolling, real estate man, who holds options on the Forty-Sixth St. site whicli the board wants to buy for Shortridge.

TO ELIMINATE MONOXIDE GAS FROM ENGINES i lin XBA Srri'ii e NEW YORK, March 31. —Cat bon monoxide, the greatest poison involved in automobile operation, will be conquered by research, following the investigation by science which resulted in bringing ethyl gasoline again into use, asserts Dr. Harrison E. Howe, editor of the journal of the American Chemical Society. Employment of tetraethyl lead, which enters into the ethyl tluid, will stimulate scientific inquiry into motors, according to Dr. Howe, so as “eventually to alxdish. carbon monoxide through perfect combustion.” Dr. Howe, whose findings as to ethyl fluid of more than a year ago have been borne out by the report of the conference of the United States Public Health Service, sees a triumph for both industry and public safety in the work of the investigating committee named by Surgeon General* Hugh S. Gumming. “The net result of the efforts of these scientists," Dr. Howe says, “will be not only the ultimate conquest of carbon monoxide, but also an advance in automobile design, a closer union of chemistry and industry, better conditions in garages and sho|*! an' a field of greater usefulness for the government in safeguarding public health. "The ethyl gasoline investigation was carried on with public health funds available only at considerable sacrifice to other investigations. If the ethyl gasoline study is to be continued as it should be anik if, under its "ample authority, the Public Health Service is to conduct investigations along other lines effecting hazards in industry and public health, adequate provision must be made in the budget."

Federal Judge Thomas Slick here today granted a permanent injunction to restrain the Independent Klan of American, with headquarters at Muncie, Ind., from use of the name “Klan.” The injunction was sought by the Knights of the Ku-Klux Klan of Atlanta. Ga., which alleged that the independent organization was attempting to steal its name. Judge Slick held the Atlanta organization through prior use had exclusive right to the name. Much Confusion Much confusion in membership of the two organizations has resulted from the similarity of names, Judge Slick declared, in ordering the Muncie organization to change its name.

dependent order had sought to profit by the nation-wide publicity at- j tached to the Atlanta order. The Atlanta Klan organization also demanded $500,000 damage* from the Independent Klan, but no damages were awarded by Judge Slick. Dissension between the national klan organization and a group of Indiana klansmen resulted In formation of the independent order at Muncie two years ago. The independent order at first went under the name of the Klan, of the North and then assumed the name of the Independent Klan of America. Hearing on the injunction petition was held by Judge Slick in Indianapolis last fall. Charges that D. C. Stephenson, former grand dragon of the Indiana Ku-Klux Klan, had diverted funds of the order to uses other than those for which the members contributed, featured the Federal Court hearing. Stephenson, deposed after a break with Atlanta officials of the Klan, is serving a life sentence In the Indiana Slate Prison for the murder of Miss Madge Oberholtzer of Indianapolis.
