SHAW YAWNS HIS GOOD-BY TO NEW YORK Stalks Off to England After Saying America May Save World Yet. BY JOE ALEX MORRIS I nited I*rr Staff ( orre*nondrnt NEW YORK, April 12.—George Bernard Shaw directed and acted today in the best show of his American visit, saying good-by to New York with a stupendous and carefully timed yawn. It was a yawn that may go down in the Shavian lore, for it was directed at the score of cameras which were recording the Irish author's final hour in this country. Today he fenced with many reporters, clashed with cameramen, knocked down a couple of microphones and finally stalked away from the photographers on the S. S. Empress of Britain. In his first mass interview, Shaw told reporters: “Gentlemen, fire away!” ‘Why should they want to suppress war?” he responded in reply to a question about whether he was a pacifist, “War is a method of killing persons. Many persons ought to be killed. Yes. including some of the English and nearly all the Irish." “People prevent their own liberty when they make constitutions to govern themselves.” he said. Tuesday night, Shaw spoke as the guest of the Academy of Political Science to a specially selected audience of 4,000 leaders of the community. He turned optimist for the evening. “I begin to think it is possible that America, in spite of all the follies of the past, really are coming to the point in which America may take the lead and possibly help save the world,” he said. ALL CHICAGO PUBLIC SCHOOLS MAY CLOSE City Is Bankrupt; .Move Made to Help Teachers. By I iiilnl l‘ri ss CHICAGO, April 12.—Immediate closing of all Chicago schools appeared imminent today, because no funds are available for the $28,000,000 owed to teachers in back pay. H. Wallace Caldwell, school trustee, announced he would ask the board of education today to order an immediate shutdown. This brought to a crisis a tinderbox situation punctuated with school strikes and protest parades of thousands of school teachers. The announcement came at the conclusion of a day of riotous sessiions in the office of Orville J. Taylor, board president. “Millions in cash have been expended for idle in the city, while teachers, in just as much distress, gel nothing,” Caldwell said. “The only alternative is to close (he schools and let every one know just how serious the situation is.” William J. Bogan, superintendent of schools, is in Washington seeking federal aid for salary payments. The first, open intimation that teachers themselves favored suspension of schools came Tuesday when 2,000 of them stormed Taylor's office after a parade through the loop. Patrick A. Nash, an old-line Democratic power in Cook county, was thrown into the breach of Chicago’s mayoralty vacancy today and appeared likely to be named successor to Anton J. Cermak, slain in Florida in February by an assassin, who fired at Franklin D. Roosevelt. RACING MECHANIC IS HELD ON BOOZE COUNT Bound to Grand Jury on Charge of Transporting Liquor.

Maybe You Happen to Be an ‘Osseous’ Eater
ft A NUTRITIVE THORACIC 0 iiu P) 11 X K OSSEOUS CEPEBPAL
What, type of a knife-eater, fork-tosser, are you when the waitress punches your dinner check? You must be one of the five mannequins above. President Taft was a nutritive; Warren Haring, a thoracic; Teddy Roosevelt, a muscular; Woodrow Wilson, an osseous, and Calvin Coolidge, a cerebral.
So DotVt Be Insulted If the Waitress Murmurs Something Odd. If you hear a waitress breathe to her sister biscuit-shooter, “He's an osseous,” don’t take the remark as being an epithet, and begin breaking the finger-bowls. She’s merely trying to get your food type after studying a chart given to Indianapolis restaurant owners Tuesday by Dr. Con O. Lee, doctor of philosophy of Tampa, Fla., in a talk at the Severin. Dr. Lee stated that the first restaurant opened in the second chapter of Genesis. He says the forbidden fruit has the table d’ hote, the Garden of Eden, the Rathskeller, and Eve was the night-club hostess who invented the first apron for the inn-keeper of today—a figleaf. He calls his five robot men—Nutritive, Thoracic, Muscular, Osseous and Cerebral, each representing a different type of eater. "The nutritive,” he told the city restauranteurs, “has a baby face, dimples on his hands, and wears red neckties. He orders cream puffs and pies, instead of spinach. He eats because he’s fat instead of being fat because he eats. Fifteen per cent of the human race is the nutritive type. “The thoracic man, the well dresser and the life of the party, always brings someone into your restaurant,” said Dr. Lee. “He orders the season’s first dish of strawberries, and beware you don’t give him a greasy spoon.” “Forty per cent of us are the muscular type. You know—eat nine different kinds of food—bread, meat and potatoes, potatoes, meat and bread, and meat, potatoes and oread. “The osseous type is spider-like in looks. He talks slow, thinks slow, acts slow. Wilson was an osseous. Get in touch with his grandmother, and see what she weaned him on as babe—and you’ve got his favorite food. “The cerebral type has invented every system of diet, calories, and vitamins known to man. He knows more about cooking, foods, digestion, than the rest of the race put together.”
Santa May Lose Job Reappointment Is Held Unlikely for Famous Hoosier Postmaster. By United Presn SANTA CLAUS. Ind.. April 12.—James Martin, who as postmaster of this southern Indiana hill village for thirty years has been Santa Claus to more than a million children all over the world, may lose his job. Martin, a jovial, rotound figure with typical St. Nicholas characteristics. has applied for reappointment to his traditional post, but has not been confirmed.
His nomination, like many others, was not acted upon at the lame duck session of congress, and the shifting trend in political control may remove one of Indiana’s best known personages. For a quarter of a century, Martin held undisputed possession of his country store postal domain. But. in recent years, the millions of letters pouring here each December for the Santa Claus cancellation marking have brought nation-

REPORT FILED ON CITY TRUST Receiver Tells of Assets Possessed by Defunct Institution. Cash balance in the receivership of the defunct City Trust Company is $70,757.72, now on deposit in local banks, according to a monthly report filed in circuit court by Oren S. Hack, receiver. Remainder of the estimated $1,700,000 assets of the bank is in real estate, stocks, bonds, notes and mortgages. Reappraisal of the property and paper assets of the bank ; has been ordered by Circuit Judge Earl R. Cox. Cox also ordered former receivers of three defunct local banks to submit final reports within ten days. The order was issued to Curtis Rottger, former receiver of the City Trust Company; Brandt C. Downey, former receiver of the Washington Bank and Trust Company, and Eben H. Wolcott, former receiver of the State Savings and Trust Company. “These former receivers have been ! given ample time in which to file detailed final reports and there is j no reason why they should be granted an extension of time,” Cox declared. Hack asked the court for an reappraisal of the City Trust assets, with the declaration that he believed the remaining assets of the bank would be revealed more fully with a new valuation. J. Harry Miles and Joseph V. Hurley were named by the court to reappraise the real estate. Gavin L. Payne and Rollin W. Spiegel were appointed appraisers for the paper assets.

‘CREEP DEATH' VICTIM SITS UP IN WHEEL CHAIR Man Afflicted With Landry Disease May Recover, Say Doctors. The first day in a wheel chair marked progress Tuesday in a successful fight against Landry's paralysis being waged by 23-year-old William Kruman of Culver, Ind. Kruman was brought to the Methodist hospital several months ago by Dr. Donald Reed, when he was first afflicted with the rare “creeping death” disease. His first symptoms he described as a feeling of “sand in his shoes.” Local physicians held no hopes for his recovery at that time, and the paralysis developed rapidly, extending from his feet to his abdomen.

It Isn’t Intoxicating(P) But Two Men Blame New 3.2 Brew for Landing Them in Court.
TT takes ten bottles of 3.2 to intoxicate a man. So says Calvin Worton, 20. of 1157 South Kealing avenue. But Municipal Judge William H. Sheaffer and Patrolman Otis Tyner disagreed with him in municipal court Tuesday and Wortman, who pleaded guilty to intoxication, was fined $25 and costs. "Your honor.” Tyner explained, “I found him Monday night sitting on the sidewalk at Maryland and Meridina streets. He couldn't walk. He told me that he had just finished ten bottles of 3.2 beer. But it smelled more like sugar alcohol to me.” Worton denied vigorously he had partaken of anything stronger than legal brew. a a a EFFECTS of drinking eleven bottles of 3.2 beer caused Fred Linville, 18 Park View avenue, to
drive his automobile in a zig-zag line, he said, but he won't be bothered that way again for a year at least. Linville's driving license was revoked for a year Tuesday by Charles J. Karabell. municipal judge pro tern, who suspended a fine of $25 and a jail term of thirty days. Conviction was on a drunken driving charge. Henry Syioff. 819 College avenue, who was with Linville, was fined $1 and costs, all suspended. He was charged with drunkenness.
