OPINION IS GIVEN
Attorney General Norwood Thinks
 School Law Should Be Passed.

Little Rock.-In an opinion given State Superintendent
 -1S-~>..z. .ieorge U. COOK Attarrey General Norwood holds that the school districts are not required to deposit with county treasurers money received from the sale of bonds. He says:
 These questions are not free from doubt, but it is my opinion that the district would pot be required to de- posit the money with treasurer, unless the act under which the money is bor- rowed required it to be so deposited, and if 1t should be deposited, in the absence of any express provision, do not think the treasurer would be en, titled to a commission upon it.
 Permit me to say in this connec- tion that the next general assembly should pass an act requiring that all moneys of school district, no matter from what source received, should be paid to the treasure4. In this way we would have a permanent public record of moneys received by school dis tricts and the manner of it's disburse- ment. Tn that event. money borrowed by school district would be in the custody of a public official, who is under a proper and sufficient bond for the discharge of his duties.
 q presume that all money that has been borrowed has been properly dis bursed, but it certainly is loose sys' tenn under which number of the school districts have been operating.
 If the legislature should think that the commission provided fer the treasurer upon the school funds that 1 the law now requires to be paid to him would be excessive on funds aris- ing from the sale of bonds, it could be provided that the treasurer handle the funds for a less commission, or, for that matter, no commission at all.

It appears to be the decree of fash. ion that considerable amount of false hair shall be worn by women during She coming season, and 1t is perhaps well that there should be a clear un- derstanding of where the hair comes from. It appears to be admitted that almost any American woman combs out enough hair from her own head to meet all requirements, but she will not take the trouble to save the comb angs, says the Manchester Union. An expert in the hair business stated in Chicago recently that Americans live soo fee' n save thnir co~-'
 ...st ts -omDlngs.
 Probably he was correct, but 1t Is al 90 probable that the average American woman gives no thought as to where her supplementary supply of hair comes from. It appears that America Imports it's false hair from Europe and Asia. The European hair is rated as first class, although there may be some misgivings as to its source in some cases. but 70 per cent. of 1t comes from China. from the heads of saving Chinese women. who are eager to swap their tresses for copper coins. 1t is worth while to save hair from combings In China, which the average American woman totally ignores until she pays a good price in the market.

HOW RTNAKER STANDS

HOW RINAKER STANDS
The Day Book today succeeded
in NOT finding out how Lewis
Rinaker, Republican candidate
for states attorney, feels about
Hearst gunner.
Rinaker's candidacy is backed
by Victor Lawson, publisher of
the Daily News and Record-Her-
aid, and so there is a great deal of
curiosity as to his stand on news
paper thugs.
This is the conversation be-
tween The Day Book reporter
and Lewis Rinaker:

that 1 have interpreted a great
emotion or made visible the mo-
tive by dramatic action.
Some men seem to think that
all they have to dois to say pref
.ty things to woman to gain her
interest in themselves. If they
can only realize how sick and
tired most women get of these
same compliments over and over
again they would take a little
thought and be original in their
flattery. Every woman of brains
likes a well-turned compliment
for the wit there is in it, even
when she knows the man is
stretching the truth a little, but
the mere iteration and reiteration
of "you are beautiful in red, or
green, or blue" Cor whatever
color you may be wearing at the

ed women.

The Day Book desires to cor
rect Mr.. Rinaker. 1t is not
against his candidacy. 1t merely
desired to find out his attitude on
certain vital questions for the
benefit of Day Book readers, so
they will know how to vote next
Tuesday.
But The Day Book is now in a
position to inform its readers that
Mr.. Rinaker IS either in as pitiful
a state of ignorance as Mac1ay
Hoyne or else has no definite pol
icy toward newspaper thugs.
In either case, Rinaker, if elect
ed, would have an awful time car
rying out his duties as states at

The proclamation of the new en-

Terrific Force
Young Boy Almost Completely
Beheaded by Cars
Young Man Had Right Ear

Getting away in fair shape, Bell
was driving his machine against
wind that had risen suddenly. With
out warning, control wire snapped.

the next moment the other side was
swung completely over, and the ma
chine landed in the field, almost a
wreck.

about thirty feet, landing on his face.
He suffered bruises about the head
and slight injury to one leg Bell
staid in his seat and narrowly missed
being struck by the heavy engine. he

both the Mestach and Kenworthy
camps will go to work today on the
wrecked plane with hopes Of having 1t
in shape for flying as early as pos
sible.

sidetracked at the university power
house to a moving gravel train, Roy

Mrs. Victor johnson of this city, was
instantly killed. His head was almost
entirely cut off, and one arm and one

testimony given at the inquest last
night, had been warned by the brake
man of the train. He paid no heed.

and several cars and the engine passed
over his body.
The inquest verdict was that he
was killed by Great Northern grav-
ell train The railroad company was
not held responsible.

FURIOUS RIOTS
ON ENGLISH DOCKS

London, July 31.-Three persons
were wounded by bullets and many
others injured as the result of rioting
on the Victoria docks this morning.
Two thousand former strikers ap-
peared for work at the docks and were
attacked by mob of strikers.
Bullets, bricks and stones flew in
all directions. The police were taken
by surprise. Only a dozen spatrolmen
were present and they were poTsas -
ito face the huge crowd.
Riot outbreaks also occurred at sew
eral other docks. Groups of strikers
attacked ships on which non-union
men had gone back to work and minor
injuries were numerous.
The police finally quelled the dis
turbances and at noon were in con-
troll of the situation.

WHITMAN
IS HUNTING
The Trail
Men 'Higher Up No
Chief Prey
Grand Jury to be Kept in Ses-
sion All Summer
Over Fifty Witnesses Have
Been Subpoenaed

New York, July 31.-Every trail and
lead is to be followed persistently, no
matter where 1t ends, by District At
torney whitman to learn to whom, it
is asserted, the $2,40O, 900 graft money
was finally distributed.
Bald Jack Rose, whose confession
put Police Lieutenant Becker behind
the bars for the alleged murder of the
gambler, Herman Rosenthal, has told
the public prosecutor this huge sum
of money was obtained by blackmail
from gamblers and disorderly houses
and that Becker told him the money
went to four police officials.
The public prosecutor has arranged
to keep the grand jury in session all
summer to investigate the relations
between the gamblers and the police,
which is, in the opinion of the district
attorney, matter of more public inn
portance than the Rosenthal case.
Whitman intends to break up the
relations said to exist between the
gamblers and the police and he has
indicated he will do so IL he has to
protect every man involved in the
murder Of Rosenthal except those who
fired the shots.
Whether Becker will care to avail
himself OF the opportunity to make
his own position easier by telling the
prosecutor who were recipients Of the
graft money which Rose says he
turned over to Becker, is doubtful. If
Becker is disposed to tell the story,
1t must be complete in every detail,
the district attorney is reported to
have said.
Over fifty witnesses will be sub
poenaed to appear before the grand
illrv to tell what they Know of al
legged blackmaiL Information obtained
from Rose, who says he was Becker S
collector from gambling houses, will
be susceptible of proof, said the dis
trict attorney.
