HEAD OF BOARD URGES CLOSING NORMAL SCHOOL College Not Needed, Moorman Says in Memorial to Legislature. Closing of either the Muncie Normal or Indiana State Teachers college at Terre Haute, suspension of the teachers' minimum wage law, and drastic curtailment of expenses at other state institutions was suggested to the legislature today by John S. Moorman of Knox, Ind. In a memorial addressed to the assembly, Moorman stated that economy is necessary because "ability of property owners to pay taxes nearly has reached the vanishing point.’’ Saving of one and a half to two million dollars a jear could be accomplished oy clos.ng of one of the state normal colleges, Moorman said, pointing out that "Indiana already has oetween 3,000 and 10,000 surplus teachers.” Suspension of the law providing for a minimum of SBOO wage for teachers is advocated by Moorman for a four-year period, because "probably 60 per cent of the school corporations will no out of money by Jan. 1, J 934, owing to the utter inability of property owners to pay their taxes.” Moorman has been active in state politics for a number of years and now is chairman of the Indiana state prison board and chairman of the state purchasing commission.

GERMAN PRINCE IS WED TO COMMONER Cinderella Romance Stirs Peasant Folk. By Jnitrd Press STOLBERG, Germany, Jan. 23. Drcarrjs of a modern Cinderella came true Sunday when Prince Wolff Meinrich von Stolberg was married to Miss Irma Erfert, pretty daughter of a commoner, a civil servant in the government at Magdeburg. The youthful bridegroom, now 30, is the eldest male descendant of the former rulers of this tiny principality in the Harz mountains. He was to have married Princess Juliana of Holland, heir to the Netherlands throne, but he lost his heart to the "home-town” girl. The ceremonies were conducted in the chapel of the old family castle, built 700 years or more ago. Only the bride's parents and her sister were present. Despite years of Germany as a republic, the romance of the prince and the government employe's daughter stirred the peasants of Stolberg as few incidents in their sequestered lives have done.

U, S. CONSULATE IS UNDER GUARD j AT YOKOHOMA Japanese Police Advise Envoys’ Wives to Move From Building. By I'nilrd Press YOKOHAMA. Jan. 23.—Police advised American consular officials today to transfer their wives from the consulate, and placed a guard around the building after 500 striking Japanese employes of the Singer Sewing Machine Company had been dispersed near there. Police arrested 145 demonstrators. American Consul Charles Duvault and his vice-consuls made arrangements to move their families from the consular apartments in case of further trouble. Seven police officers were stationed in the new, granite consulate building, twenty around the grounds, and 300 in an adjacent park. Police suggested that wives of consulate officials, including Mrs. Du- j vault and Mrs. Marrill Denninghof, ! be ready to take refuge in the large vaults of the building, if necessary. Duvault, as well as members of the embassy staff at Tokio, were said to believe that the police either were unduly alarmed, or were seeking to demonstrate their zeal for protecting Americans after the raid of Japanese thugs on the Singer Sewing Machine building here last week. The raid grew out of the strike of 5,000 native employes, and was not considered primarily an anti-American demonstration.

Iron trouser seats may be necessary for the Indianapolis police department in the year 2.000 A. T. —after technocracy. In fact, at the present time the radio patrolmen are finding that they wear out more trousers than shoe soles. In the photo radio patrolman Scott Waughtell is shown getting a punctured pair repaired by Earl Jackson, tailor for the Kahn Tailoring Company, Meridian and Washington streets.
Waughtell was telling Jackson, as the photo was snapped, how in the old days a policeman’s pants wore like steel while the soles of his shoes, from padding the pavement, seemed to be made of paper. “But nowadays,” says Waughtell, "this riding around in radio cars waiting for calls has turned the tables and pants need patches with the frequency of a bad inner tube. This life is just one darn patch after another.”
THOMAS KEEPS UP FILIBUSTER AS LONG QUITS Huey Apparently Mollified by Adoption of Amendment to Glass Bill. By T'liitrd Prrss WASHINGTON. Jan. 23.—Fu1l burden of the senate filibuster against the Glass bank bill rested | today on the shoulders of Senator Elmer Thomas iDem.. Okla.). His most loyal and energetic comrade. Senator Huey Long <bem., La.t has accepted a compromise, and it is apparent that if the fight- | ing is to continue. Thomas will have , to continue alone. Long, who did more than his I share of talking in the two-week filibuster, professed to be satisfied with the Bratton amendment, adopted by the senate Saturday. The amendment would permit branch banking by national banks only in states which extend the same privilege to state banks. The Kingfish believes that change will make more remote the possibility of large metropolitan banks "gobbling the little" institutions. He said that was the reason for his extended fight against the Glass bill. Despite the fact that he apparently is mollified, the Kingfish said he still had some amendments to offer to the bank bill, and senators feared the next three days, would see Long back in the arena fighting against some other provision of the measure. Thomas intends to use the Glass

CHOICE WHISKY IS OFFERED TO STATE Kentucky Liquor Interests Send Ads in Flood. Anticipating repeal of Indiana's Wright bone dry law by the legislature, Kentucky liquor interests within the last few days have flooded the state with illustrated literature of whisky stocks and prices. Brightly colored pamphlets containing reproductions of many brands of bottled whiskies have been distributed to physicians, who. under the proposed new law, would be authorized to prescribe medicinal whisky under government supervision. If the dry law is repealed it is probable dentists and physicians will charge a prescription fee which may be upwards of 50 cents a pint. bill, he said, as a means of calling to the country’s attention the necessity for currency inflation to lift the burden of debts from the poorer classes, particularly farmers.
