AX WILL FALL ON BOSSES IN WPA

INDIANAPOLIS. June 19.—Reclassification of project supervisors and “bosses” to become effective July 1 will result in further administrative personnel reductions in Indiana's Works Progress Administration, John K. Jennings, state administrator, said today. Transfers of salaries of these workers from “project cost” to “administrative expenses" will raise expenditures for pay rolls approximately $50,000 monthly. To offset the increased cost, Jennings announced, every person on the new pay roll will “have to justify his being there.” Jennings said today he will ask Floyd I. McMurray, state superintendent of public instruction, to cooperate with WPA in securing employment for 189 works-relief teachers who will be dropped from the educational program July 1. Dismissal of the teachers will result in an annual reduction in expenditures of the education, division of approximately $15,200, Jennings said. Denying there was political significance attached to the recent statewide shakeup, Jennings said; “Regardless of the political backing the administrative workers may claim if they aren’t contrihuting to the efficiency of the program they will be let go." He announced the resignations of two more members of the administrative staff, effective June 30. They were Ralph C. Werner, traveling compensation claims adjuster, and William G. Stockton, supervisory clerk of the division of safety, both of Indianapolis. Their positions will not be filled, Jennings said. BANNER ADS fJEl KESULT*

(rnnttnaril From l*n(rr One) much rivalry in regard to the loca tion of the county seat. On this oe casion, George Thompson lost an arm and Doctor Tarvin Cowgill was injured in the hand by a premature ex plosion. “The gun was frequently hauled out and fired off, whereupon people living at a distance from Grcencastle, hearing the sound, would at once start to Grcencastle to learn the news. “On one occasion, Peter Albaugh who lived near the mouth of Little Walnut, heard it and at once struck out for Grcencastle to see what was up, riding his swiftest nag. On arriving at the public square, he found a group of persons standing at the northwest corner of the public square, among them Washington Walls, Lewis H. Sands, Daniel Sigler, Arthur McGaughey and Dr. W. B. Gwathney. On driving toward them and inquiring what had happened, he was blandly informed that one of the town’s most distinguished citizens had moved out of town that day and they had simply fired off the old gun as a manifestation of their complete satisfaction and approval. “Ou July 4, 1845, in connection with a widely advertised celebration of Independence Day, the people were asked to assemble at 1 o’clock, the notice to be given by the proper signal from the gun. But the signal never came for the reason that at daybreak Frank Hensley and Washington and Clinton Walls, together with several other young men, had quietly drawn the old gun to the commons southwest of the public square and immediately south of the residence of Judge John Cowgill, who then lived on the northwest corner of Madison and Walnut streets. After being loaded with copious quantities of sod, yellow clay and other like substances, it was discharged. but. also, it was the last salute the old weapon was destined ever to fire. Under the glorious enthusiasm of the day, it exploded, one of the pieces, weighing 60 pounds, striking the home of Judge Cowgill. Nobody was injured. “A man named Wolf, who had operated a small foundry on the west side of town, bought the pieces. Later Wolft changed his location to Albaugh’s mill, about a mile and a half southwest of Grcencastle, and transferred the fragments of the old cannon here. He undertook to melt them but unsuccessfully, and threw them into the branch nearby where they yet are.”
