MUNICIPAL AX GUTS TWO MORE PARKJMPLOYES Veteran Assessment Expert, Secretary Discharged on Mayor’s Order. Tw° veteran employes of the city Ptrk board today were job-less foll"wing another cut by the municipal ax wielded at the order of Mayor Duvall. Charles A. Myers, who has been m department twenty-two years, ]*as removed as chief clerk and Miss Mary Griffin, secretary to the board "who has served since 1923, were the Victims. •lohn E. Milnor, board president, personally directed the ax, but failed to reveal to the victims the reasons for their dismissal. “Unpleasant Duty” I have an unpleasant duty to perform,” he told the employes. “The powers that be have asked for your resignations and I have been told to notify you. You probably would rather resign th'an be discharged.” Are there any charges against me or any criticism of my work?” Myeirs asked. “No,” Milnor replied. Mayor Duvall had little to say other than that some of the employes discharged would be placed In other positions and that the board proposed to reduce the staff of employes. Discharge Secret The discharge of the two city workers followed disclosure that the board had removed eight other employes. apparently In a secret manner outside of regular meeting, although they were not responsible for the revelation. Myers was an expert on assessment work, established the assessment department and bookkeeping system of the board and had been retained by five city administrations, both Republican and Democratic. Miss Griffin was considered by all persons dealing with the park department as one of the most efficient employes at the city hall.

IBEST LAXATIVE L THEY’VE FOUND BlacWßraogbt - Recommended by Parents of t&rge Arkansas Family W to Used It for 25 Years. Mr. G. W. Parsons, a well-known resident, of near Hatfield, Ark., says: “Black-t'rajght is the best all-around medicine I have ever found for constipation. We began using it 25 or more years ago and have used it whenever needed since. “I have never found any other medicine as good for constipation, and that was what I suffered with till T began using Black-Draught. Mack-Draught corrected this condition, and now we use it for Indigestion.—a tight and sluggish feeling after meals, foi; bad taste in the mouth and sour stomach. “It sets on our shelf and we don’t let it get out. It has been a great help to us. I believe a great deal of sickness is caused by hurried eating and constipation, and Black-Draught, if taken right, will correct this condition.” "I am the mother of eight boys and ten girls,” saws Mrs. Parsons, telling how useful Black-Draught has been when the children needed a laxative. “For those who didn’t like to take it in the powdered form. I made a tea from it. I gave it when they had colds would get bilious, come in with the headache, or such complaints, and it usually made them feel a whole lot better. “I used to have severe headaches and Black-Draught was a great benefit to me.”

MR. FIXIT Where Wouid Women Get Their Bobs?

Let Mr. Flxit present your case to city officials. He is The Times representative at the city ball. Write him at The Tltnes. > Keeping the women out of men’s bapber shops is a proposal Mr. Fixit received today, which is perhaps the most fiery in his history. DEAR MR. FIXIT: Can’t there be a law to keep women out of men barber shops? This is getting awful. Please do your best to have them use their own. A TIMES READER. Mr. Fixit firmly believes the writer is a bachelor, else he would realize the futility of changing a feminine viewpoint. American men have allowed their females to get the jump on them at some period of history and they have had it ever since. DEAR MR. FIXIT: This being my first complaint, I hope you will give it consideration. Since establishirg the farmers’ market at E. South and New Jersey Sts., they have graded E. Empire St. on a level with the market. There is a drop of about ten feet at Empire and Smith Lane. It seems there should be a retaining wall with sufficient danger signals of which arf present there are none. MRS. LEFORGE Arthur assistant city engineer, will ask the board of safety to provide signals. DEAR MR. FIXIT: I read your column daily. I would like to find out when the sewer will be put through the 1300 block on S. Keystone Ave. PROPERTY OWNER The improvement is held up because of delay in court action concerning the Pleasant Run interceptor sewer of which it is a tributary. Thedate is difficult to determine.

FESS FARM BILL DEFEAT IS BLOW FORPRESIDENT Relief Question Now Put Up to Voters —Congress Says Last Word. Bu United Press WASHINGTON, June 30.—Basic farm relief today was practically out of the hands of Congress and the voters at the fall elections will now have an opportunity to pass on the subject. The Fess cooperative farm loan system measure, which carried the indorsement of President Coolidge, was defeated in the Senate late Tuesday by a vote of 26 to 54. The Senate, however, later passed without a record vote the House cooperative marketing measure, which also had the support of the Administration and authorizes the creation of a coperative marketing division in the Department of Agriculture. That appeared to be the final word of the present session of Congress on farm relief. Consequences Seen Twenty-one Republicans, some of whom never before had opposed measures indorsed by Coqlidge, joined Democrats in voting against the Fess measure. Political consequences of the vote on the bill were considered by observers to include: 1. While there was little likelihood at any time that the Fess measure would pass, the overwhelming breaking away of Republican Senators from the President indicated a weakening of his hold on Congress. Open Break 2. The Dawes-Lowden-Watson-Mc-Nary farm wing has at last openly given notice of its break from the White House, with the obvious intention of fighting out its equalization fee platform against Coolidge’s opposition. 3. The farm revolt Indicated in the recent western primaries by successive defeats of Coolidge congressional candidates is sitll unequalled and the issue may remain uppermost at the polls for months to come. Since Woodrow Wilson lost his Versailles treaty fight, there has been no more overwhelming defeat of the White House. Coolidge mustered only twenty-three Republicans out of forty four voting. Os the twen-ty-two, twelve were from the eastern states. Hoosiers Included Os the twenty-one Republicans who voted against him. Senators Bingham, Conn.: Cameron, Ariz.; Oddie, Nevada; Pepper. Pa.; Reed, Pa.; (Lieutenant of Secretary of Mellon) and Pine, Okla.. for the first time broke from the Administration ranks. Senators Fernald, Maine; McMaster, S. D.; Norbeck, S. D.; Schall, Minn.; Cummins, Iowa; Couzens, Mich.; Borah, Idaho; Gooding, Idaho; McNary, Ore.; Robinson and Watson of Ind., have seldom strayed from the path beaten by Coolidge but they all voted against him on farm relief. Really only four of the twenty-one Republicans who repudiated his farm indorsement were out-and-out anti-Coolidge Republicans. They are Senators Howell, Nebraska; Johnson, California; La Follette, Wisconsin, and Norris, Nebraska. But the most important of the vote on future developments will be that the farm question is still un settled and that the Dawes-Lowden-McNary Watson group Is on the march. Former Governor Frank O. Lowden, Illinois, who has been campaigning against Coolidge’s farm relief policies and for the equalization fee system, is a leading candidate for the 1928 Republican presidential nomination. Vice President Dawes and Senator Watson, also are mentioned as candidates. MORE AIR—MORE HAIR LONDON.—Dr. E.
