WISEHART MUST MAKE GLADDEN GASEJDECISION State Board Passes License Question; I. U. Head in Argument. The State board of education Friday placed the matter of taking action against Fred T. Gladden, assistant superintendent of schools, charged with issuing a teacher’s license illegally to Miss Fay Green of Lexington, directly in the hands of Roy P. Wisehart, superintendent of schools. This action followed a heated debate during which William Lowe Bryan, president of Indiana University, declared that he is "a citizen of this State and would like to know what would be done.” The Gladden affair, which had been continued from the last meeting of the board when a committee headed by Wisehart was appointed to obtain an .-opinion from the attorney general as to what steps could be taken, came up when Wisehart reported that the ruling was that the board could take whatever action it saw fit. Board Is Through He then read a letter from Gladden, in which the latter accepted the blame, but protested that he had acted in good faith, as Miss Green’s application was accompanied by a certificate of sufficient credits. This certificate later w,as found to be false, and Gladden is accused of forcing through the license over protests of the licensing officials. ‘•This closes the matter as far as the board is concerned, and now the matter is in my hands as superintendent,” Wisehart declared, ‘‘l move the entire matter be declared closed,” Charles Miller, superintendent of Indianapolis, former State superintendent, who appointed Gladden, said. ‘‘ls Mr. Gladden to remain in his position?” Dr. Bryan asked. Wisehart Holds Matter Wisehart answered that this was up to himself as State superintendent. . ‘‘l am a citizen of this State and I would like to know if any action is to be taken?” Bryan declared. "I assure you I shall take care of the situation,” Wisehart again promised. Here Dr. L. Hines, president of Indiana State Normal College, who balked the attempt of Miller to close the matter at the last meeting, interposed with a request to know when Gladden is to be exculpated and the exact action to be taken. ‘‘The matter of Gladden being here is a problem for the State superintendent and the State board of education’s responsibility is Closed. I shall take care of it now. “If Mr. Wisehart doesn’t handle the matter properly, it then goes to the board for its action,” W. W. Borden, superintendent of South Bend schools, declared. Bryan moved that the motion to close the affair, proposed by Miller, be tabled. This was passed and Hines asked that the minutes carry his dissent. It was intimated by Wisehart that Gladden will be given an opportunity to resign. Charges against Floyd James, superintendent of Scott County schools, of malfeasance in office, brought by W. O. Green, father of Miss Green, must be preferred in the Scout Circuit Court, in accordance with the attorney general's opinion, Wisehart announced.

Details of Interest to all Motordom THE oew Hudson and Essex Super-Sixes come to the Automobile Show in completely new and arresting design, strikingly in advance, and at once Drilliantly original and authoritative. The full of their beauty is a swift impression, imSossible to dissect; and yet a etailed studv of the advancements is of interest not only to Hudson-Essex owners, but to all motordom. Newness begins at the very front, in higher radiators on both Hudson and Essex —an effect that is further heightened by vertical radiator snutters. Tne motometer has been removed from the front to the dash, and is now replaced by handsome radiator or n ame nts.

Lamps are of Colonial design, and are of the parabeam type controlled from tht wheel. Saddle lamps of the s.\<ne type are mounted on the cowl by means of a crossing nickeled band. Fenders are of new design, full-crowned and beaded along the edge. This handsome design is carried back to the side-splash guards, which at e deeper, and to the wider running boards which are provided with rubber mats and bound with aluminum strips. Ail bodies are lacquered in duo-tones, and carry a moulding all the way around, and out the cowl and hood to the radiator. All Essex models are larger and roomier than ever before. The total effect of many interior details is an air of richness and finish. For instance, the panel between the windshield and the dash is finished in a rich borl walnut design, while, just beneath, the instrument board itself is finished in a polished ebony. Set into this background is the grouping of instruments, including the ammeter, oil and gasoline gauges, speedometer, and motometer, all indirectly lighted. The handsome new steering wheel has a steel core surrounded by ebony-black hard rubber and carries light control, hand throttle and horn button. Four wheel brakes are, of course, standard in both Hudson and Essex. * * t Buyers cun pay for cars out of income at lowest available charge for interest, handling and insurance

they choose—good, bad or indifferent—restrained only by legal responsibility for the abuse of the privilege, and the frow r ns of public condemnation.”

Coast to Coast and Lakes to Gulf, the story is the same enthusiastic showing, impulsive applause, intense and unparalleled buying. It is easily the greatest Essex SuperSix in history. It offers S 2OO to *3OO more visible value than its great predecessor which outsold any other “Six” at or near the price by overwhelming margins. Come with the crowds who acclaim them the “World’s Greatest Values.” You will say the same the moment you see them. And place your order now to insure early delivery.
