EDUCATION FEE CONFLICT STIRS IRE OF PARENTS 200 Pupils Are Affected by Argument; Face Transfer tc Distant School. Aroused by wrangling of city and township school officials over tuition transfer fees, parents of nearly 200 pupils living in University Heights, but attending Perry township school, today were demanding immediate and peaceful settlement of the dispute. Unless a settlement is reached Boon, 178 University Heights pupils, attending the township school just north of University Heights, may be forced to go two miles farther north to the nearest city school, No. 72. Omer Green, Perry township trustee, has ordered thirty-eight township pupils attending city school No. 72, at Troy avenue and Shclbyville road, which is nearer their homes, to return to the township school Monday. He is making another room there out of two cloakrooms. Notified of Transfer Parents of University Heights pupils in the township school have been notified by the school board that the pupils must go to city school No. 72 after the holidays, unless the dispute is settled. Although a part of the city, University Heights has no city school. The dispute arose some time ago over the school board’s refusal to accept the plan of Trustee Green whereby township pupils, now attending city school No. 72, because it is nearer their homes, be “traded” for an equal number of University Heights pupils, the tuition transfer fees canceling each other. The plan was suggested by Green because the city’s transfer tuition fee, based on per capita cost, is $94, whereas that of the township is only $67. However, because of the number of University Heights pupils attending the township school, the city pays the township about $9,000 more than the township pays the city for transfers, according to A. B. Good, city schools business manager. Parents Voice Protest Neither the school board nor the trustee has issued any transfers for pupils attending the two schools thus far this year. However, the board has taken no definite stand and made no promises, according to Good. Parents of pupils affected declare “we aren’t so much interested in price of transfers as in the best schooling for our children.” A majority of the parents have indicated they would appose vigorously any transfer of University Heights pupils to a city school two miles away. Good was- visited by a delegation of protesting parents on Wednesday.

PLEADS FOR ‘HANDS OFF’ Nicaraguan Moves May Have “Unfortunate Result,” Borah Told. By Scripps-Howard Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.—Urging a hands-off policy for the United States in the coming elections in Nicaragua, Charles A. Thomson, secretary for Latin-America of the fellowship of reconciliation, has written to Senator Borah warning that if the usual policy is followed it may have “unfortunate results,” The elections come in October, 1932. According to state department approval has been necessary before candidates enter the race. Since, he argues, the United States marines are to be withdrawn by the end of 1932, it important that Nicaraguans select their own strongest man, not only in the elections, but in the nominations.

‘BOOZERS,’ CRIES OHIOAN; UPROAR SWEEPS HOUSE Bitter Debate Flares After New Congressman Flays Drinking Habits. By United Prttt WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.—A burning question before congress, vieing for interest with the moratorium and the depression, is Vhether members of congress do or do not drink within the precincts of the Capitol. The battle has been fought in a dozen formal speeches on the floor of the house and in scores of impromptu conversations wherever members gather. A dozen bitter, personal feuds are in the making as the result of recent floor debate on the subject, an# as many representatives are planning speeches designed to shame and annihilate their opponents. Particular target of attack, especially from his own state delegation, is Representative Sweeney, a new member from Ohio, a Democrat and a former judge. Wednesday, to the amazed indignation of the house, Sweeney for the second time discussed the personal drinking habits of legislators. Last Friday in his maiden speech before the house Sweeney began the torrent of oratory by accusing members of the national legislature of being “hypocritical” in their prohibition votes. He complained that he was unable to hear the debate going on because two "dry congressmen’' were loudly discussing the merits of Washington’s illicit liquor suDply. In his second speech, evoked by

numerous protests, Sweeney said that “I make no apology for my previous speech.” He said he spoke from personal observation and experience, adding that he had seen intoxicated members of the Ohio state legislature within the Capitol building at Columbus. “And Representative Cooper of Ohio, who is an honest man, will bear me out,” he shouted. “That’s an insult,” cried Representative Murphy (Rep., O.). “We are not drunkards. This is the first time I have heard Ohio legislators called drunkards. I protest.” Ignoring parliamentary procedure,

Sweeney attempted to reply, but was restrained by members sitting near him. The house adjourned immediately, but members lingered in little groups discussing his speech. It was asserted that drinking in the lobbies and cloakrooms is a practical impossibility, with visitors and constituents hovering about in profusion.
