PROPOSALS FOR STATE SCHOOL AID CONSIDERED Wischart Mails Checks to Support Institutions During Crisis. State school aid checks distribution continued sparingly from the office of Roy p. Wisehart, state public instruction superintendent, today as the school aid commission pondered new proposals for permanent solution of the problem. Decision to send a circular letter to school offlicials who have failed to fill out and send to the superintendent's office, questionnaires regarding their financial condition, was reached today at a conference of Governor Harry G. Leslie, Wisehart and Harry Kirk, state aid auditor. Kirk declared that the failure of some officials to mail reports indicated that their financial conditions are not as bad as painted Rnd that they did not file reports because they had no deficit to show. Le&he Differs Leslie did not agree with this, contending that the township officials did not keep their books in such condition as to permit them to furnish the information desired in the reports. When members of the commission reassemble here April 12 they will have had time to digest remedial proposals advanced at their conference with the Governor Saturday. "We are going ahead as we always have regarding state aid,” Wisehart said today. His department is checking claim vouchers and mailing checks. He has more than SBOO,OOO for distribution and township trustees will be asked to pay teachers out of this advance. Opposes Special Tax Governor Leslie expressed opposition to a special or luxury tax for state aid and indicated he is not favorable to a special legislative session. George C. Cole. Dearborn county schools superintendent, advocated increasing the state-wide school levy from the present 7 cents to 35 cents, and placing state aid administration with the state board of accounts. Senator Alonzo H L-indiey advocated a 25-cent state wide tuition tax and the listing of all except public property on tax duplicates. Proposals for reduction in the number of schools and consequent reduction in the teaching force was answered by Wisehart’s reading a resolution recently adopted by the board of education, favoring this plan. Praises Account System Leslie read reports of past years to show that when under the control of the board of accounts, there was little difficulty in the state aid situation. “Under certain conditions,” the Governor said, "money was turned back to us when it was under the control of the state accounts board.” Wischart explained his position and added that his office attempted to supervise carefully the expenditure of state aid schools. "We have too much supervision that doesn’t mean anything,” the Governor declared. LAST RITES TO BE ~ HELD ON TUESDAY Mrs. Elizabeth E. Drown, 76, Dies Sunday Afternoon.

RECIPE TO CLEAR A PIMPLY SKIN Mmpl Are Impurities Seeking an Outlet Through Skin Pores. Pimples, sores and boils uually result from toxins, poisons and Impurities which are generated in the bowels and then absorbed into the blood through the very ducts which should absorb only nourishment to sustain the body. It is the function of the kidneys to filter impurities from the blood and cast them out in the form of urine, but in many instances the bowels create more toxins and impurities than the kidneys can eliminate: then the blood uses the skin pores as the next best means of getting rid of these impurities, which often break out all over the skin in the form of pimples. The surest way to clear the skin of these eruptions, says a noted authority. is to get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water each morning before breaklast for one week. This will help prevent the formation of toxins in the bowels. It also stimulates the kidneys, thus coaxing them to filter the blood of impurities and clearing the skin of pimples. Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia Here you have a pleasant, effervescent drink which usually helps make pimples disappear.—Advertisement.

Jeweled Hens By Science Service NEW YORK, Feb. 17.—Under penalty of law every person who killed a chicken in a certain section of Colombia, South America, had to submit the fowl to a government official for inspection. This was a recent, rigidly enforced statute, C. Kendrick MacFadden, mining engineer of New York, told the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers here today. The jurisdiction of the law covered territory near the Muzo emerald mine during its recent operation by the Colombian government, explained MacFadden. The government did not want to lose any emeralds, and chickens much prefer them to ordinary gravel. The inspectors would perform a post mortem and remove any precious stones they might find in the fowl’s gizzard. One bird contained seventeen small emeralds, MacFadden said.

The Doolittles Are Forced to Reconsider By Science Service NEW YORK, Feb. 17.—The Doolittles, said Jimmy Doolittle, never travel by rail. And so the stunting ace of the Army air forces packed Mrs. Doolittle and the two little Doolittles into his cream-colored LockheedVega monoplane Sunday at Mitchel Field, L. 1., with St. Louis as their destination. The powerful motor roared, drowning a chorus of farewells as the plane taxied speedily down the field toward a far corner. Suddenly, a cold gust of wind swept broadside against the plane. Doolittle had difficulty keeping the ship on its course. As he turned the plane's head into the wind, before leaving the ground, another blow cut in sharply, forcing the plane to dip over on its left side and scrape along the ground for several yards. Spectators, horrified, ran up to find Doolittle and his wife brushing the dust off James Jr., 8, and John, 6. No one was hurt, but the plane lacked a propeller, left wing, landing gear and a good portion of the fuselage. Mr. and Mrs. Doolittle and family left by train for St. Louis, where Mr. Doolittle will take up his duties as civilian pilot, in charge of the aeronautical department of the Shell Oil Company.

INEW DEVICES HOLD INTEREST AT AIR SHOW Innovations for Comfort Attract Many at St. Louis. BY LOWELL NUSSBAUM Times Aviation Editor ST. LOUIS, Feb. 17.—A riot of colors, ranging from the usual blacks and dark blues to scarlet and robin’s egg blue, with all the other i colors of the spectrum in between, (and all the comforts and conveni- : ences of a Pullman, mark the 1930 | airplanes on display at the second ; annual International aircraft exposition. The eighty-seven planes shown range from tiny one-place sport planes to huge air liners, from land planes to sea planes and amphibians. Following the growing tendency toward luxury in air travel, most of the planes exhibited are cabin ships. More distinctly new planes are found here than have been exhibited at any of the larger air shows of the past several years. Shut Out Drone In noting the many gadgets and innovations designed for the comfort and convenience of passengers, the observer sees deep, comfortable reclining chairs of brilliantly colored leathers and mohair, with adjustable head rest; silken and leather wall coverings in futuristic designs, individual wall lamps beside each seat, ash trays, dom lights, radios, heaters, complete lavaries, kitchenettes with electric or gas stoves, thermos jugs, sleeping accommodations, instrument panels in the passenger compartment to satisfy the passenger’s curiosity, silk curtains at the windows and heavily padded walls to shut out the drone of the motor and permit conversation without shouting. The smallest plane, aside from gliders, is the Heath parasol, dressed up in the new brilliant color combinations. Next in size is the Baby Ace, a midget closed one-place plane selling for $1,895 fully equipped. Chief among the dreadnaughts of the air are the Keystone Patrician and Curtiss Condor, both eighteenpassenger and crew planes, the Ford standard transport and a Ford club plane. The latter is equipped with berths, lounge chairs, writing desk, card table, loud speaker radio, kitchenette, rugs and other luxuries. Tonager Is Exhibited To the flier one of the most- interesting planes in the show is the Curtiss-Wright Tanager, winner of the Guggenheim safe-aircraft competition SIOO,OOO award. The Tanager, a three-plate cabin biplane, departs from conventional biplane construction by the addition of three devices. These are anew type of aileron, mounted at the tips of the lower wings, automatic wing riots along the entire leading edge of the wings, and controllable rear wing flaps, which when turned down permit very slow landings, in a small space. The plane lands and takes off almost vertically. Another plane that attracted much attention was a duplicate of Colonel Charles A. Lindberg’s huge new Lockheed-Sirius low-wing monoplane. Somewhat resembling the Sirius is the Curtiss Carrier Pigeon. In this ship the pilot sits far back in the fuselage and in front is a baggage or mail compartment, almost tall enough for a man to stand upright in it, capable of carrying a ton of mail. The famous Travel Air “mystery ship,” a low-wing cockpit monoplane capable of 235 miles an hour, also attracted attention. 75 Engines Shown Among the historic planes shown are the Bellanca Columbia, in which Clarence Chamberlin and Charles Levine crossed the Atlantic; the St. Louis Robin, holder of the world’s refueling endurance flight, and the Buhl Sun God, which completed a refueling flight from Spokane, Wash., to New York and return last summer. Indiana exhibitors included the Davis Aircraft Corporation, Richmond, with two monoplanes; Indiana Tool and Manufacturing Company, Indianapolis, airplane engine gears and other parts, and several others. The Chevrolet Aircraft Corporation, headed by Louis Chevrolet, which recently moved from here to Baltimore, is displaying one of its new four-cylinder in line, inverted, air-cooled motors. Seventy-five different engines, with the air-cooled type predominating, and a myriad of accessory j displays also are shown.

DRUGGIST PICKS REM FOR HIS OWN COUGH

MR. A. MATERA, JR.

Rem is quicker. Clings to the throat. Starts relief immediately

FEB. 17, 1930

MOVE TO BREAK G. 0. P. BOSSES’ OUSTER POWER State Committee May Hear Appeals on Disputes in Precincts. Rules which would check the ouster power of city and county | chairmen and destroy their czaristic ! hold upon the organization will be presented to the Republican state committee Tuesday for consideration and adoption. The new rules were drafted bv Harry C. Fenton, state committee secretary, and provide: 1. A direct appeal to the state i committee from any dispute rei yarding seating of a precinct committeeman. Under the present rule j the matter first must be submitted : to the executive committee of the | county committee and then, if that | committee deems it sufficiently im- ! portant, it may be presented to the 1 state committee. May Take Jurisdiction 2. Appeal must be made solely by affidavits setting out clearly the point at issue. 3. State committee on its own motion by a majority vote will bo able to take original jurisdiction in i any case affecting the interest of the party or the right to hold office the party upon the filing of a written petition stating the nature of the case and the relief sought. 4. State committee, by a majority vote of its entire membership, may remove or otherwise discipline an officer or member of any committee for willful violation of the established rules. Under existing | laws there are no provisions requiring a majority vote. Drive Against Club 5. Curbing of "fly-by-night” political clubs through a rule requiring that such clubs be approved by the state committee and that aH stationery of any Republican club must bear the date of the issuance of such a permit. The need of this, it was pointed out, Is occasioned by the organization, just before an election, of political clubs whose purpose merely is to solicit contributions. Any group attempting to form an organization club must show 7 evidence of good faith in order to obtain a permit. 6. In an event of a tie between two candidates for precinct committeeman a certification of the tie by the board of canvassers must be presented to the county committee, which shall by a majority vote select the committeman. Under the present rule the decision is made by the canvassing board. Proxies Acceptable 7. In event of the inability of a : district chairman to fill his office. precinct committeemen of the dis- ! trict shall elect the chairman ln- ! stead of permitting the selection of Ia successor to be made by the counJ ty chairman. 8. Proxies will be recognized but. i must be signed in ink before a I notary public, giving the date and | hour, and naming the person to be j the proxy. Under the present rule i they are signed before a notary, but jdo not designate the person to ; whom the proxy Is granted, being s merely marie out to the bearer. Another change will be made in ! accordance with the 1929 act of the | legislature giving women equal voting powers in party organizations. TALKS ON PATH OF EVIL High Road of Crime Is Far From Fascinating, Says Stark. Misinformation that the high road of evil offers all that Is fasj cinatlng. and that the path of high ! ideals and decency is colored with ; boredom is the greatest fraud perpetrated on the young people today. : Prosecutor Judson L. Stark declared Sunday in an address to members of the Young Men’s class at Broad ! Ripple Christian church. In his talk on “The Straight and j Narrow Path,” Stark said: “We can i not expect to see every side of the cheap carnival of life, but instead j should see things that are infinitely | more worth while.” Ends Hunger Strike MASILLON. 0., Feb. 17.—Richard Stewart, Warren (O.) rug merchant, ended his hunger strike of thirtyfour days at noon today when he partook of his first food since he refused to eat more than a month ago.

Explains why he chooses it Mr. A. Matera, Jr., is a druggist at 8136 Baxter Ave., Elmhurst, N. Y., and has a whole storeful of various remedies at his disposal. Therefore it is interesting and significant that he chooses REM when he himself has a cough. Mr. Matera says: “REM is a very good expectorant, loosens the phlegm in the throat, soothes the tissues, and promptly checks the coughing.” This prompt action of REM is partly due to a special ingredient not found in ordinary cough remedies. Though harmless itself, it helps produce the quick soothing effect so n o t i c e a b l e when REM is swallowed. Then he adds: “It’s an easy remedy to give children because they like to take it, and I’ve noticed that it always does all that is claimed for it.”
