GOODRICH HEARD AT INAUGURATION OF COLLEGE HEAD Tribute to Wabash Ideals Is Paid by Former Governor. By Times Svecial CRAWFORDS VILLE, Ind., Dec. 3. —Tribute to the ideals of Wabash College was paid today by James P. Goodrich, former Governor, one of the speakers at the formal Inauguration of Louis Bertram Hopkins as new president. Incidental with the inauguration was the unveiling of a tablet at the home of Caleb Mills, pioneer Hoosier educator, symbolizing the relationship between Wabash and Dartmouth College, which began nearly 100 years ago and is now renewed with two brothers as head of the two schools. Brother Attends Ernest M. Hopkins, head of Dartmouth, was one of nineteen college presidents who attended today's ceremonies. A banquet at the Masonic Temple was to follow this afternoon's pregram at which Dr. H. B. Longden, vice president of De Pauw Universilty was a speaker. Presiding at the dinner will be Federal Judge Albert B. Anderson. Goodrich in his address stressed faith In Wabash—“a small college, tout one that we love; a college that has been content to be a college preserving, that fine relation and close personal touch between master and student.” "We live in an age of big things,” he said. “In industry we are in the time of giant factories and mass production, which increase wages, lower costs and pile-up wealth in a fashion never dreamed of by our fathers. Along with this has come a period of rapid development in the field of education. Our universities are crowded with thousands and tens of thousands of students they scarcely can accommodate. Stadiums rivaling In size the ampitheaters of ancient Rome are built to accommodate the vast crowds to witness the athletic contests of our seats of learning. Sees Danger "I wonder at times if there may j not be a source of danger in the: rapid growth of our universities. “In industry we standardize our methods to Increase production, reduce costs and broaden markets. In education we are not trying to standardize the product, but to turn out well-trained youth, no two of them alike, In each one seek’ng to bring out his highest and best individual characteristics so that he may make his own impress on the thought and j life of the Nation.” Goodrich declared he would not take away from our universities the credit them, declaring they typ ify the spirit and sense of achieve • ment of America. “Yet,” he said, “I do believe the college has a frisk today which the enormous growth of our universities makes more important than ever before; the task of preserving the in dividual character of education; that fine, intimate contact between master and pupil which was a source of Inspiration to us in our own college days.”

SUCKER FILES WOO SUIT (Continued From Page 1) less, for which interest and earnings Duvall failed, neglected and refused . . . to account to his ■ successor in office, the defendant. Ramsay, and the plaintiff, the city.” Since Jan. 1, 1926, Ramsay has profited from $25,000 to $60,000, “the exact amount which is unknown to plaintiffs, hut is well-known to Ramsay,” according to the complaint. Lemcke’s debt to the city is esti mated at $170,000 and Sourbter is chalked up with $150,000, according to Rucker. Both treasurers served four years. The liability of Fishbaek during his two in office is placed at $70,000. Heirs of Von Hake would Pa required to refund $120,000. those >f Robinson, $60,00; Ensley, SIOO,OOO. nd Koehne, $75,000, according to ihe complaint. Payments Offered Fishlinok, during his term of of ce. formally offered to pay the noney to the city, but it was not cc°pted l.emcke offered to pay the money if a fund into which to pay was found. City officials did not act on liis offer. Ramsay, informed of Rucker’s suit, refused to comment. Funds "illegally” retained were described in the complaint as: "Largely composed of money paid in by private Individuals on their ten equal Installments under what is commonly known as the Barrett law, for public improvements by which such 'private individuals were specifically benefited and assessed, and of .sums in way of prepayment paid in by persons taking said Barrett law to relieve their property of improvement liens, but which may not be paid to bondholders until the bonds, running for ten years, become due, and of sums paid in advance by .Individuals assessed for such manner of public Improvements who had not availed themselves of the installment plan of the Barrett law, and of a large sum, the exact amount of which is unknown to the plaintiffs, which has accumulated over a long period of years arid not paid out to bondholders or to creditors in relation to public Improvements because the bondholders and creditors had died or had negligently failed to present their bonds for payment or whose bonds had been burned, lost, destroyed or otherwise rendered unavailable for presentation to and payment by the city treasurer.” Trust Fund These moneys, according to the viewpoint of Rucker and his associates, constitute a trust fund to which only the city itself is entitled to interest. Mention is made of the 1 per cent tax collected .by the city to meet deficits arising from the use by treasurers of the taxpayers’ money. “However, the constitutionality of any law for general assessment of taxation to make up such deficiencies Is problematical and doubtful,” the complaint alleges. “Should the courts hold the same to be In violation of the State constitution, then the security and worth of several million dollars’ worth of such bonds would be destroyed and the credit and good name of the city be Irretrievably Injured in such catastrophe.” Tiattmamti A Zu-fUtorc Store Since ISM Sl7 E.
