ORR INSISTS AID AUDIT REVEALS SIIO,OOO ERROR
Hints Monroe School Head Ignorant of Subject in Criticism. Superintendent William V. Payne of the Monroe county schools “evidently does not understand the subject,’’ Lawrence P. Orr, chief examiner of the state board of accounts, replied today in answering Payne’s criticism of Orr’s handling of state aid audits. Orr pointed out that field examiners of the state board of accounts have disclosed errors of sllO,000 in payments due seventeen counties for 1926-27. He estimated that the $1,000,000 deficit, for which appropriation was made by the 1931 legislature, may be halved. The deficit piled up since 1926. Claims Too Large During the administration of Roy P. Wisehart, superintendent of public instruction, claims totaling $120,000 were paid the seventeen counties, while the field examiners audit shows payments should have been but SIO,OOO Orr declared. He attributes the difference to “principally mathematical and clerical errors.” When the deficit appropriation was made, to be paid over a four-year period in $250,000 installments, Orr’s department was given charge of checking the audit. Orr in Statement He issued the following statement regarding Payne’s criticism: ‘“Mr. Payne has not conferred with us. We will be very glad to go over our method of computation and enlighten him as to same. We are only interested in seeing that the state pays out the correct amounts as the law provides. Surely, Mr. Payne will not contend that payments should be made except as to the amounts justly due. “His statements are quite confusing and he evidently does not understand the subject. It appears that he is opposed to our department examining state-aid claims, but we must follow the legislative act in that regard. “Evidently he desires to create a prejudice against our department as to examining these claims. Several years ago, when this department was charged with examination . of state-aid claims before allowance of same, there were no deficits. “We intend now to establish a proper accounting and when that is done the state-aid units will be allowed what is due them, as the law provides.”

As far as Indianapolis fans are concerned there is only one radio program on the air at 6:15 p. m. each Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The reason? There are two of them. Singin’ Sam (left), and Emil Seidel, at the piano. Singin’ Sam, otherwise Harry Frankel, bats 100 per cent with Indianapolis listeners and when he was teamed up with Emil Seidel for the period now heard over WFBM and the CBS, Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 6:15, Hoosier listeners were assured a good program at least three times a week. Seidel will be remembered as master of ceremonies and orchestra conductor at Loew’s Palace and the Apollo theaters here for several years.

ALCOHOL FOUND TO BE PART OF BODIH NEEDS Toxicologist Says Fluid Is Supplied to Brain by Nature. ill/ United Press BUFFALO, Sept. 2.—Every one can think clearly with alcohol on the brain, according to Dr. Alexander O. Getuer, noted New York toxicologist. . He announced today his claims that alcohol is present in the brain and liver of every human being—whether drunkard or total abstainer. Dr. Gettler, here to attend the American Chemical Society convention, told of discovering alcohol in minute quantities in animal organs. “I have taken as much as a halfdrop of pure ethyl alcohol from the brain of a man who never touched liquor in his life,” Dr. Gettler said, “by employing anew method of multiple distillation without the use of condensers.” Dr. Joseph B. Niederl, Dr. Bene-detti-Pitchler and Dr. Gettler discovered the new method, he said. “Alcohol is a normal part of the brain, not only of persons, but of animals as well. I have found it in dogs, pigs and other animals. “At present, while the discovery is new, we can not say much more than that alcohol is normal to the body. However, it is there for a purpose. Nature produces nothing without some purpose. “What part of the body this alcohol is made in, and why it. is made, are things we have yet to determine. I hope to be able to answer those questions in about two years. “Meanwhile, we can know more certainly than ever before that the body can handle moderate amounts of alcohol—and I mean moderate—without injurious effect, and probably with some degree of advantage.” Dr. Gettler, noted for his work in 300,000 autopsy cases, including that of Starr Faithful, describes the results of his work as “rather startling.” Arson Plot Trials Set Bn Times Special WASHINGTON, Ind., Sept. 2. During the September term oi Daviess county court, which will open here Monday, two men previously tried on charges of conspiracy to commit arson, will again face the court. A jury disagreed in the first trial of Harry Dillings. A new trial was granted the other defendant, William E. Beck. Death Follows Good-by By Times Special EVANSVILLE, Ind., Sept. 2. Shortly after saying good-by to her three daughters, Ethel, Venita and Florence, Mrs. Nellie R. Brizius died of heart disease. The daughters are on a motor trip to Evanston,- 111.

Happy Landing The first solo flight of Ren McMains. Richmond, CurtissWright Flying Club member, nearly became his last. After making two successful take-offs and landings at municipal airport, McMains decided to make a third hop. The only difference between the first two and the third was that on the third the youth misjudged his distance from the ground and he “sat” his ligfct club plane on telephone wires at the northeast corner of the field. While field attendants hastily were grabbing fire extinguishers and running to his assistance, the plane slid from the wires and dropped to the ground, the tail striking first and absorbing most of the shock. McMains escaped injury, except to his pride, and the plane sustained very slight damage.

SLITS SCREEN, 'HOOKS7IIRSES Crook, Using Odd Methods, Is Sought by Cops. A screen-cutting burglar, who hooks his loot from outside a window, was sought today by police after he had staged thefts on the north side Tuesday night. Miss Opal Pruitt and Miss Nettie Snyder, 1124 College avenue, told police the burglar had taken two purses containing $22 from their room. Frightened when Mrs. Jennie Shull, 1217 College avenue, investigated a noise in her bedroom, the burglar fled after slitting the screen. Police found a mop handle to which was attached a crude wire hook. Smashing a window in the Margaret Steffen hat shop, 20 East Fourteenth street, early today, thieves fled with thirty hats, value of which was not determined, police were informed. Other window smashers obtained clothing from the Mary Elizabeth dress shop, 4215 College avenue, according to police reports. Golden Date Passed By 7lines Special VEEDERSBURG, Ind., Sept. 2.
