PROTEST TOO LATE TO STOP BUILDING, SAYS SCHOOL BOARD - Members . of the advisory school board of Center township contend that permission for the issuance of bonds fof Hhe new BChoolhouse has alreadybeen granted and that a remonstrance will not affect the sale of bonds to be held next Monday, according to statements made Friday. In May, 1919, the state board gave its permission for Center township to issue ,$13000 worth of school bonds, it is said. These were never issued because of, conditions existing which made the building; of a 'school house at that time inexpedient Since that time the statute governing the issuance of bonds has been changed, giving the power of granting permission to the state board of tax commissioners. The question to be decided, township officials state, is whether the permission granted in 1919 is still active, or whether this was countermanded by the change of statute. Members of the . board state that they have met at intervals to fix dates of future meetings, but had delayed bringing the point to an issue until building conditions had resumed a form of normalcy. This they contend, is now toere, and the need for the school i such as to warrant them proceeding with the sale of the bonds. ,. 5 A date for -hearing on , the remonstrance had not been set by the state board of tax commissioners, Friday afternoon.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

CHARGED WITH THEFT, COLLINS IS LODGED IN RICHMOND JAIL Arthur Collins. 19 years old, was brought to Richmond from Rockvllle by Detective E. McNally, Friday afternoon and lodged in the city jail on a charge of grand laeeny. Collins confessed to having stolen a large touring car belonging to William L. Stephenson, 823 North E street. The car was stolen from Tenth street near the Westcott hotel about 2 o'clock Monday afternoon. The young fellow stated that his home was in New York, but this statement was discredited. He stated that he had a "pal" who deserted him at Bellmore, a few miles east of Rockville. Collins stated that he had been in Richmond about eight days. He said he was out of money and a job. Hi "pal" suggested that they steal an automobile and get out of town. Collins said he stole the machine and met his friend on the National road west of Richmond. They drove through Indianapolis without being questioned although both were in rags and driving a machine valued at more than $3,000. At Bellmore the gasoline was running low and Collins made an effort to trade an extra tire for gasoline. His "pal" waited out of town for him. Garage men became suspicious and caused his arrest. On March 30, Collins was arrested in Richmond on a charge of vagrancy, he was brought up in police court and promised to leave town. At that time he gave his name as J. R. McKay. Garment Makers Wages Cut by Chicago Board (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, April 15 That some reductions in wages would improve the clothing industry so that net losses to garment makers would be small was the declaration today of the board of arbitration for Chicago workers, which announced a 5 to 10 per cent cut in wages, effective April 2S, last night. Taking into consideration the decreased cost of living,' workers are "10 to 15 per cent better off than in July 1919," the board's decision said. The board established a minimum of $15 a week, the present wage for learners in tailor shops. Find Soldiers' Bodies; Probably Indian Victims (By Asso-Mated Press) THE DALLES, Ore., April 13 Mute evidence of a long forgotten tragedy probably enacted in the days of early settlement of the Dalles, was brought to light yesterday when workmen engaged in the construction of the Columbia river highway near the Deschutes river, unearthed six skeletons, each with the skull crushed in. With the skeletons was found an old fashioned gold watch chain, a rotted away army saddle such as was used by cavalrymen stationed at old Fort Dalles, and small copper campaign kettle such as was used by soldiers for cooking purposes while, in the field. The bones crumbled to dust when handled. Local pioneers are of the opinion that today's findings are the remains of a skirmishing party of soldiers, ambushed and slain by Indians.

Italian Raids Reveal J Arms and Munitions, (By Associated Press) TRIEST, April 15. Large quantities of arms and munitions have been discovered by police officials in raids on the homes of Croat ians involved in the recent uprising near this city, la one of the Croatian headquarters seventy men were found and arrested. The extreme nationalists of this city, upon hearing of the work of the police, burned a local club having Slavish members: MARTHA WASHINGTON STILL DELAYED BY SHIP UNION BOYCOTT (By Associated Press) BUENOS AIRES, April 15. Ef forts by the American embassy here to secure intervention by the Argen tine government in the controversy which resulted in the boycott of the Munson liner Martha Washington have been without result. Following conversations between Finance Minister Salaberry and United States Consul General Robertson, officials of the port workers' union were ca'led in by the finance minister,-and the whole subleet was aerain discussed. The la bor leaders refused to lift the boycott! unless their demands were conceded, i and Senor Salaberry reported to this effer4 to the consul general. Mr. Robertson was unable to obtain a guarantee either that the government would require the union to unload the ship or give protection to non-union labor engaged in removing her cargo. The matter has again been referred to the American embassy. La Epoca, the government organ, made its first reference to the Martha Washington case yesterday, saying the real cause of the boycott was not the single modent in wmcn aj fireman on board the Martha wash.ington was shot by the master-at-arms, but alleging that bad treatment had been received by the firemen at the hands of the ship's chief engineer. MONTEVIDEO, April 15. Discharge of the cargo consigned to Buenos Aires on board the Munson liner Huron began here yesterday without opposition from the port workers. The goods will be transferred to the steamer Larel, now in the harbor of Beunos Aires, and conveyed to their destination. The Huron will leave for New York City April 19 or April 21, carrying passengers from the Argentine capital. MILITARY PREPARATION GUARANTEE OF PEACE, SAY RUSSIAN OFFICERS (By Associated Prnss) RIGA, Letvia, April 15 Russia must maintain her military strength in spite of the fact that fighting has ceased on all fronts, as the period of transi tion from war to peace is one filled , with danger, says a resolution adopted j at a conference of army commissaries and commanders at Moscow. The text of the resolution is printed in the newspaper Pranda. of this city, and follows: ' The liquidation of the battle fronts, partial demobilization and the concentration of energy on labor has decreased the attention given to army affairs and this conference considers it necessary to issue a warning against f-nthusiasm for peaceful life. All Russian Soviets have decided unanimously that our army must, be maintained, and its fighting efficiency increased. Must Preserve Army. "Nobody should forget that preparedness for war is a guaranty of peace. It Is more difficult to preserve the army during peace than during war. and the present transition period is dangerous for both the army and the revolution. The fronts are liquitated but soviet Russia remains a country of war and labor as heretofore." Reports reaching this city indicate there is fear of new disorders in Bolfcheviki Russia. The organization of the new "international army", plans for which were announced last week, has been commenced. This force will replace the old soviet army and will be made the basis of the military strength which will be available to enforce the dictates of the Third Internationale.
