• I. H. S. A. A. DOPE INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 25 (UP) — Efforts to pour oil on ttic troubled waters of the Indiana HiKh School Athletic Association have been apparent in all sections of the state. Reports that representatives of several of the latter schools had met in Indianapolis to organize and draw up a warning and protestation i-eem-ed to act as a stimulant for action. The men from the larger schools agreed to notify the I. H. S. A. A. that they would bolt the spectacular and glorified state high school basketball tournament unless they were given an equal representation on the board of control ami legislative com-
mittee.
Just today Milo H. Stuart, principal of Arsenal Technical Schools at Indianapolis and the new president of the Indiana State Teachers’ Association, was reported to be working on two proposals. It was said he would work actively in an effort to solve the association’s troubles. One of the proposals was described as a plan of classifying the state schools into five divisions, with each class having a representative on the board of control and members of the legislative committee. An alternative plan was said to suggest an A, B, and perhaps C divisions, the distinction being according to enrollments. Uner the latter plan each clas« would have Its individual state championship tournament. Many school men have l>een reported to favor the five class plan, their arguments being that the small school- have no fear of the larger ones because, despite comparative enrollments, each is entitled to a representation of equality on the basketball floor with a team limited to five men. Arthur L. Trester, the I. H. S. A. A. commissioner, today said he believed equality of representation would solve all the association’s troubles, a few of them being distribution of finances, number of games allowed each school to play in a single and number of sweater awards. Trester was non-committal on most topics discussed, but he did say that when equal representation was affected, settlement of other problems would i>o an easy matter. “If the men from every class of the association can’t settle the problems, then nothing can hold together the I. H. S. A. A.” he added. Each school man talked to granted that all cla.-se.- of schools would be forced to concede a point here and there to bring final harmony. It was also the belief of those bent on missionary work, that the I. H. S. A. A was too big and fine an organization to lie broken up. It is known the men from the larger schools will ask for a meeting of the legislative body within the next 30 days, and there appeared to bo strong reason why the meeting will
be bald.
First, the larger schools, most of which entertain sectional and regional basketball tournaments, might refuse to invite such meets under the present turbulent condition of affairs. i he I. H. S. A. A. must have the invitations on file at the earliest possible date to perfect the gigantic organization for staging the annual three-week basketball tournament.
throw away our armaments. We have very little to throw away. “I pray fervently that there will be no more war. With all my soul I hate it. But what have I do to be so sure there will be no more war? But what is there in history which authorizes us to conclude that someone el.-e will not provoke one? It is not a question of whether or not we will defend this wonderful country of ours if another nation, which does believe in war, should attack us. “We are all lovers of peace now. But somehow it is possible to change us in a few months. The same people who one month denounce war will be foumi the next month clamoring for war. Suddenly we see men and women and little children—not soldiers—but peaceful civilians, clergymen, mothers and kindly old ladies and quiet men shouting for war. When there is war talk in the air almost everybody takes a hand in it but the soldiers.” Gen. Pershing points out the fallacy of the argument that a large army is a dead expense. The pioneer work in the West; building of the Panama, Erie and other canals; controlling the floods of the Missippi; construction of highways and public buildings; development of devices aiding commercial aviation; development of chemicals for treating disease and fighting crop pests are a few of the civil functions that have been performed by the army in times of peace, Pershing declares.

Resume of Record of Congressional Ticket r-
THEY WANT YOUR SUPPORT
The Republican Congressional Ticket offers the unexcelled qualification known as experience. Only by experience gained through continuous service may a state congressional delegation obtain influence in National Affairs because in the National House of Representatives an inflexible rule of seniority obtains and a Representative’s opportunity conies only through length of service. Even then a Congressman’s influence is subject to party control of Congress—a member of a minority political party being in worse position than a beginner with the controlling party, which organizes the House. The present Indiana delegation has attained the rank that places the state in the forefront of leadership in the House. Every Representative who seeks re-election is a member of the half score of committees, such as Appropriations, Agriculture, Banking, Buildings, Interstate Commerce, Judiciary*, Labor, Patents and Pension, which frame nine-tenths of the gislation considered by the House. Three of the principal chairmanships belong to Indiana—Wood on Appropriations; Elliott on Public Buildings; and Vestal on Patents. Vestal also is whip of the House. Purnell will be the next chairman of the Agriculture Committee; he also is a member of the powerful Rules Committee, which controls the order of business in the House. Hickey ranks high on the Judiciary, Hogg on Postoffice, Hall on Pensions; Johnson on Interstate Commerce, the committee that frames railroad and other legislation relating to transportation: Rowbottom on Labor and also Claims; Hall on Pensions and also the District of Columbia; and Dunbar on Banking and also Flood Control. The voting record of these men commends them to every fairminded person. Those who were members in the War Congresses gave every support to its successful prosecution. They with their colleagues, who entered the Congress later, were prominent in the enactment of the tax reduction laws that cut $600,000,000 from the tax burden and relieved two and a half million persons of all federal taxes. All were supporters of the compensation and pension increase bills, the farm co-operat-ive marketing or other legi.-lation requested by organized Arrirultnre. Other important legislation having their support included the tariff, restricted immigr: lion, fl.'id relief, river improvement,' tie budget and the nation’s first comprehensive building law, passed vnder the leadership of Mr. Elliott. They have opposed debt cancellation in favor of foreign countries, the World Court, the League of Nations and other-entangling alliances. First District Harry E.

MR. DAY 1 \KE.S EXt iJ’l If ^ Om A. Buy, Denftcratic candidate for re cl< ' ion as commissioner of Putnam - minty, has taken except! ns to a statement we printed this week in which it was said the state tax j board had reduced the road repair I fund in th - county and the taxing: j official.- had not. Mr. Day also made the statement that it hud been the | policy of the board to red tree the tax-) es as the ga - tax increased. He cited j
g •
I road tax was reduced 10 cents un- 1 dor his administration, and the tax | board reduced it another 10 cents. He said the other reduction by the state! tax board wa- prior to hi,- going on j the board. Mr. Day said the board did not re-j ducc the tax this year for next in ! the face of an increase of about 20 i per cent in the gasoline tax because of three reus .ns. He says there was , a reduction in the assessed valuation of the county; the board was forced | to spend between $5,000 and $10,000 1 thi.- year to settle damage claims | against the county because they carried no compensation insurance; and third that the gravel mad repaid fund was bankrupt with the start of the new year, and they are attempting to have a carry over balance at the end of this year. In the face of the decrease in the road tax th s year, there has been j an increase in the county revenue | fund, due Mr. Day said, to township poor expenditures, even though the t .wnships repay the county for this expense. The condition of the gravel road repair fund in the past, which was depleted at many times, was said to have been due to the heavy expenditure of the road superintendent. The total raised in this fund ranged from about $195,000 down to slightly more than $100,000 for the past several years and the rate ranged from 50 cents down to the present rate of 10 ents.

SEED TESTING FREE Many farmer- do not know that they can send seed samples to Purdue for testing free. The analysis of seed can be made to determine impurity, and foreign seeds. Farmers with seed to sell should submit samples during November and December. If farmers would be more careful in buying tested seed, even from their neighbors, there would not be the spread of dodder, Canada thistle, etc. Blanks for seed testing can be obtained at the county agents’s Office.
