ROBINSON DISCUSSES ‘SPIRITUAL RECOVERY’ Must Precede Economic Betterment Senator Says at De Pauw. By Times Special GREENCASTLE. Dec. 15.—“A spiritual recovery must come before we can hope for an economic recovery,” Senator Arthur R. Robinson declared in an address to De Pauw university students in chapel yesterday. “There is an equal chance for every man born under the American flag,” the senator said. “Opportunity is unlimited, because it is guaranteed in the Constitution. Destroy the Constitution and you destroy your liberty.” Senator Robinson explained that the Constitution was made for the average man. “This average man needs all the protection the government can give him. A million dollars can protect itself,” he said. TRAIN KILLS FARMER Auto Driven Through Safety Gates Struck Near Kentland. By Time* Special KENTLAND. Dec. 12.

Mrs. Robert W. Blake

Many Organizations to Aid With Tuesday Night Performance. More than 200 Indianapolis and Indiana singers and musicians will take part in the first American performance of “Sainte Therese,” a new oratorie composed by Miss Evangeline Lehman, an American girl living in Paris, when it is presented at 8:15 Tuesday night at St. John's church, 126 South Capitol avenue. At several performances in France this year, Miss Lehman was given repeated ovations for the exceptional merit of the new oratorio. Because of her outsanding work, the composer was decorated by the French government. This and other honors place Miss Lehman, a graduate of Oberlin colllege, among the foremost American women composers. To present this important work properly, Elmer Andrew Steffen, conductor, has been rehearsing the more than two hundred singers and musicians.

TEACHERS’ PAY GETS HUGE CUT IN WASHINGTON Salaries Are Slashed, 2,000 Lose Jobs in Moves for Economy. Following' 1* another story on the effects of the depression on United State, schools. BY ARTHUR L. SCHOENI United Press Staff Correspondent OLYMPIA, Wash., Dec. 15.—An optimistic attitude on educational affairs in Washington is taken by Dr. N. D. Showalter, superintendent of public instruction, who says no children have been deprived of a chance to go to school. The depression, however, has not failed to make inroads into the state system. Teachers salaries are 30 per cent lower than three years ago, 845 teachers were cut out last year and 1,200 have been eliminated this year to pare down expenses. Nearly $30,000,000 was saved in wage slashes. Expenditures for text books were cut 30 per cent, maintenance 35 per cent and libraries 28 per cent the past year. The curtailed number of teachers, 11,177 on June 30, 1933, must handle larger classes. In three years, 10,000 more students attended school, most of the increase in the high school division. Financially, the schools

are better off than in most states but teachers are carrying heavier loads with less pay. Outstanding warrants against school districts increased $1,000,000 in the last year, in contrast to a much larger percentage of delinquency in taxes. While delinquencies on school taxes rose $4,000,000 the schools were able to keep the increased warrant debt down to one-fourth by anew statute. The “new barefoot schoolboy law” passed by the 1933 legislature brought schools money from a tax levied on business revenues and took off some of the load on real property. Under the old setup, elementary and high schools received 34 per cent of their revenue from the state, 52 per cent from the district and 14 per cent from the county. The new business tax boosts the state's share up to 48 per cent and drops the counties to less than 10 per cent. Teachers’ pay warrants have been selling in some places at a discount of 5 to 15 per cent, but a recent “delinquent tax sale” held by the state brought in a flood of delinquent taxes. A greatly improved warrant situation will result by Jan. 1, it is expected. Under the new set-up. schools get $1,000,000 a year from the state permanent school fund, which represents interest on investments and sale of school grant lands. Real property will contribute $2,000,000 and the state business tax $6,500,000.
