PINS CROSS TO HEART “Blue Sky” Charge Prisoner ITas Police Perplexed. By United Press WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—After removing a safety pin imbedded deep in the flesh over his heart, police today were pondering whether to hold Dr. Philip Otto Von Falke, 40, for mental observation or hasten his extradition to Deal, N. J. A small crucifix was suspended from the pin over Falke's heart. He put it there three days ago, he said, to alleviate his worries. Falke was arrested nine days ago on a “blue sky” charge. It was alleged he obtained $20,000 from Deal residents as investment in a "curative ray,” which could kill “any living thing.” He was said to have shown his prospects a “check signed by Secretary of Treasury Mellon” as investment in the ray.

The school board Tuesday was ordered by the State tax board to proceed with plans for proposed new buildings at Arsenal Technical igh School, for which a bond issue of $450,000 had been asked. The order was issued following a hearing of objectors, headed by .secretary Harry Miesse of the Indiana Taxpayers’ Association, before the tax board. All agreed that to proceed with plans and receive bids for the construction was feasible. Plans Ready in Three Weeks Plans for the educational unit, to consist of two wings containing thirty classrooms, will be ready within three weeks, Building Superintendent Jacob declared. Estimated cost is $250,000. Plans for the S2OO 000 combination gymnasium and auditorium will be ready later. The State board will approve the bond issue later if the plans and bids meet its approval. Necessity of the additional buildings w r as emphasised by Milo Stuart, Technical principal, who pointed to the crowded conditions of the school. Object to Bond Proposal Miesse pointed to the increased facilities of the new Shortridgc High School and declared many students would rather go there, since Shortridge won the city football championship. He that the board proceed slowly with Technical expansion, as Irvington desires a high school. Objection was made to the bond proposal notice which stated that any surplus from the $450,000 might be used to purchase other land. This was explained by board members as a safety measure enabling them to use the sum judiciously.

World War Jinx Auto * at Last Is in Junk Pile By United Press BUDAPEST, Aug. 10.—Europe’s most ill-starred automobile has finally ended on the scrap pile. It is the car in which Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was riding when he was riddled by an assassin’s bullets at Serajevo in July, 1914. During the thirteen years that have since elapsed, the car has heaped misfortune and disaster upon approximately fifteen people who owned it subsequently. Many of them, as well as many of their friends, are said to have ridden in it to their death. Its last victim was a Hungarian automobile dealer from Szegedin. He had bought the car cheaply and was about to drive it to Rumania and sell it. Knowing its history, he drove the ominous automobile as cautiously as possible. But on the highway near Szegedin the car capsized. The dealer himself and one of his friends were killed instantly. The three remaining occupants were dragged from underneath the totally demolished machine with serious injuries.

INTEREST SAPS U. S. TREASURY Move to Cut Public Debt and Reduce Taxes. By United Press UNIVERSITY. Va.. Aug. 10.—The United States has paid more than $8,322,000,000 in interest on its public debt since April 6, 1917, when America declared war on Germany, Ogden Mills, under secretary of the treasury, today told the Institute of Public Affairs, University of Virginia. Interest on the public debt is one of the government’s heaviest expenditures and the treasury has a two-fold program to believe taxpayers of this tremendous burden, Mills declared. “First, it contemplates a steady reduction of the debt by retirement, and second, a reduction of the burden by refunding as rapidly as possible securities bearing high rates of interest into those bearing a lower rate," he said. Mills pointed out that the public debt has been reduced by $5,486,000,000 in the last six years. During the same period, the government has cut the interest rate on outstanding securities from 4.29 per cent to 3.96 per cent, bringing a $200,000,000 annual saving to taxpayers.
