Supt. Williams of the Wayne
County Schools Joins in a
Move for Reorganization
of Board of Education.
AUTHORITY OF THE
GOV. is TOO GREAT
Not Only Is Member of the
Board but Has the Ap-
pointive Power for Three
of the Board Members.

That Governor Thomas r. Marshall,
by virtue of his position as a member
of the state board of education, and
also by reason of his appointments to
this board can usurp too much author.
ity on school matters in this state is
the stand taken by many of the coun-
ty superintendent of the state, among
whom is Wayne county superintend.
ent, C. o. Williams.
Supt. Williams has just returned
from the meeting of the county super
intendents at Indianapolis at which
a reform asked for by these officials
which would remove the governor and
number of his appointees from the
state board, was launched. The true
situation is that many of the county
superintendent believe Governor
Marshall is incompetent to serve on
the board because he is not in close
touch with school matters, being a
lawyer by profession.
Present Arrangements.
As the state board is now constitut
ed, Governor Marshall holds a position
only by virtue of his office and has the
appointive power of three other mem
bers, including two independent col
lege presidents and a county superin
tendent. President R. L. Kelly of Earl
q &c 0f "
appointees on the board The other
members of the board now include the
state superintendent, president of Pur
due and Indiana universities and the
State Normal school at Terre Haute
and the superintendents of the three
largest cities.
The county superintendents believe
the organization of the board of edu
cation should be as follows: state su
perintendent of instruction. a county
district school teach
er. township high school teacher, a
city superintendent, a town superin
tendent. president of one of the state
universities, and president of an in
dependent college.
1t is charged that under the system
now in force, the state board of edu
cation is autocratic and aristocratic
but not democratic. 1t is claimed that
the state board on numerous occa
sions has evinced a disposition to dc
as it pleased and not meet the de
mands of what seemed to be the ma
jority, in regard to the adoption o1
school books, fixing school courses
and many other things. AS an example
county superintendent Williams said
for many years a demand from all ov
er the state has been made for a two
book course in geography, the state
board has always turned it down and
decided on a one book course

tNational News Association)

Washington, June 29.-Politicians
were set guessing today by reports
that Speaker Champ Clark will not be
presidential candidate despite the
fact that his boom has been fairly
launched.
Unless Joseph w. Folk, of Missouri

ture, members of the Missouri congre-
gational delegation, as well as Office
holders in the SHOW Me" state assert
that Mr.. Clark will refuse to allow his
name to be used further as even a re-
septive candidate for the nomination.
The word has gone around that Mr.
Clark. one of the big three eligibles for
the Democratic nomination. will not
risk a split that will throw Missouri
out OF the Democratic column by rum
ming against Mr.. Foulke, who has the
nominal support of all Missouri ONCE
holders.

Healing Ffuit Tree Mounts

Both the season at which the wound is made in pruning aud the character of the cut have an influence upon the healing pro- cess. The prpner should re-
 member that all food material capable of healing a wound is taking taking downward course through the inner bark and that to heal well a wound must be in a position to inter- cept the ward flow of sap from foliage higher up. When a limb is to be removed entirely the cut should be at the union with and parallel to the surface from which the limb arises. Where limbs are U be headed back they should be cut to side limb and not to a bare stub. Wounds naturally heal best when made at a season of the year when growth is most active, but with the possible exception of wounds made in early winter and subjected to a long season drying, the season at which the wound has no important bear ing upon the healing process. The grower who has a small or
 chard that will permit of such 8 practice should delay the prun- ing until as near the opening of the growing season as possible

Flags Judiciary Recall

Washington. May 27.-"It will strike from the splendid struc- ture of Free Government the arch upon which it has come to rest wita unahaken confidence Democratic Representative Mar . tin ". LiilleJon of New York de clared in the House yesterday, in an attack upon the recall of judges feature of the Arizona Constitution.
 "The seasoned and staid tradi tions of impeachment are to be translated into trial by tumult, '" said Mir. LittietOn. 'The or derly process of regulated jus tice is 10 be converted into spor- adic assaults born of hate and disappointment. The dignifed minister of the established law, enn0bled by the grandeur of bis lofty station and disciplined by the pressure of sober responsi bility, is to be degraded by the impending threat, and distracted by the uncertainty of precari- ous tenure.
 "The misguided or malignant passions of an unimportant .frag- ment of the community may reck lessly accuse the most stainless Judge and by groundless charges put suspicion in the place of con- fdence; distrust in the place of fai h."
 The lying litigant, buffied in an attempt to subsidize the court, the culpable confederate of the convicted criminal; the corporate bandit, finally condemned by the firm hand of an incorruptible court: the agrarian agitatOr, al ways against the substance and symbols of order; the reformer, whose righteous seat and unbal. anced judgment made him at once the most attractive anC most dangerous of men; the dar ing demagogue and the intrigu ing political boss, were men tioned by the speaker as among those who might be expected tC exercise the privilege of recal against incorruptible and fear less Judges.
 "We look in vain for prece dents" continued Mir. Littleton ''for no people ever dared tC write such an example into theiI history.
