Suicide Among GERMAN Children.

Why do SO many German children
commit suicide? No one seems to
know, but there is no dispute about
the fact. Indeed it has been said that
the majority of suicides are those of
children, and experts seem inclined to
connect the grisly epidemic with the
educational system. That "the weak
must go to the WALL has become an
axiom that has been extended to the
schools, and the undeveloped mind of
the child seeks relief in suicide from
the encouragement of failure. It
would be interesting to know if any of
the so-called heather countries of the
world have ever experienced such a
horrid social phenomena as that of
child suicide.

State Saves $4,000 Expense BY the

Columbus. State Treasurer-elect
John p. Brennan will ask the legisla-
ture to set aside fund on which the
state emergency board may draw. He
figures that the state would have
saved $4,000 in interest payment to
banks had this provision been in
force during the last year and half
since the adjournment of the last leg
islature In this period the emer-
gency board has made allowances
amounting to S243,625.22. The insti-
tutions and departments to whom the
allowances were made borrowed the
money at to 5 per cent, while the
state has millions on deposit in banks
earning maximum of 31s per cent.
Mr.. Brennan also will recommend
that the end of the states fiscal year
be changed from November Is to June
30, to correspond with the fiscal year
of the United States government. He
plans also to issue to the press a

ohlo's Potatoes Many.

ohio's bumper crop" of potatoes,
raised on state farms by wards of the
state, was announced by I. V. Lyons,
purchasing agent of the board of ad-
ministration, as 10000 bushels. The
crop, Mr.. Lyons declares, is practi-
cally sufficient for all the institutions
for the coming winter, and at the cur
rent price of so cents bushel, means
that the state has avoided expending
approximately 100000.
At present there are 20,019 wards in
the institutions under the supervision
of the administration board. In all
there are 10 farms, and the institu-
tions which are nonproductive are
supplied from the general crop. Aside
from potatoes, most of the vegetables
needed are also produced on state
farms.

"A friend advised me to eat Grape.

and kept getting worse as time went
by.

none of them seemed to help me. My
system was completely run down, my

After rax.podaina Scheme.

The state tax commission, with the
aid of Attorney General Hogan, is
making an effort to prevent escape
from taxation on mortgages made in
the form of deeds or leases. In the
scheme of getting around the pay
ment of taxes on mortgages is becom-
ing more and more prevalent.
An investigation quietly conducted
into the methods used in the transfers
of property gave rise to the suspicion
that the deeds or leases recorded were
in effect nothing but mortgages. In
Attorney General Hogan holds that
the taxation on an instrument of this
kind depends on whether it is a genu-
inc deed and lease or a mortgage in
legal disguise.
1t is explained by the attorney gen.
eral that where B deeds his property
to A in consideration of a specified
sum and in turn receives from A a
lease with privilege to purchase with
in specified time for the amount of
| the purchase price, the contract does
not create in the hands of A anything
which can be assessed to him as a
"credit" or an investment" The at
torney general says that the evidence
may be clear that the real intent was
to execute mortgage through evi.
dence showing a previous attempt tn
borrow money.
| AS test of the deed and lease a.
rangement, Mr.. Hogan says that if the
rent under the lease seems in reality
to be interest on a loan the fact may
be taken as giving the transaction the
suspicion of being mortgage.
"The mere fact that the grantor re-
mains in possession, even under q
form of lease" says the attorney gen
eral, "is a circumstance tending to
show that the agreement for re-pur
chase in connection with the deed con
stitutes mortgage rather than G
sale. Inadequacy of the price al
which the legal title to the property
changes hands is a circumstance Of
considerable weight as tending tt
show that the transaction is mort
gage"

investigating State Institutions.

Through Investigations being made
by agents of the department of work.
shops and factories, a crusade against
the overcrowding of children in coun-
ty institutions was begun by Chief
Inspector T. P. Kearns. It is planned
to reach every home in the state, and
wherever lack of facilities is discov-
cred, changes will be at once ordered.
From many of the institutions re.
ports of overcrowding almost as seri
Gus as that in state institutions have
been heard.
Such conditions now are entirely
under the control of the counties sep
arately, but If the suggestions of the
commission appointed by Governor
Harmon to draw up the proposed
child-welfare code are adopted by the
next legislature, the state will have
much broader power over the little
wards.
So far, Columbiana county is the
only county ordered by Inspector
Kearns to relieve overcrowding. A
: ident of the board of trustees OF the
Children's home at East Liverpool ad
vised him mot to permit more thar
two children to occupy one bed at one
time"
II also was suggested that an ade
quate restroom be provided for the
children.

Seek to Alter Tax Law.

With the purpose of making the
Smith one-per cent tax law more elias
tic, its friends are preparing to CO.
operate in securing some minor
changes in it at the coming session of
the legislature. The principal defect
they see in it is that it limits munich
palitiec from raising for taxes sum
greater than they had in 1910, plus
per cent per year since that time.
It is pointed out that this limitation
has operated more harshly than had
been expected. When the provision
was put in the measure it was ex-
pected that taxing officials in all dis
tricts in the state would work to see
that the full value of all property was
put on the tax duplicate. 1t is con-
tended now that if all values were on
the duplicate, the one-per cent rate
would bring in all the funds required
for all normal needs.
BY taking the limit off now, friends
of the measure see an opportunity of
placing more definitely on the should
ers of taxing officials the need of get
ting duplicates increased
If the 1910 limit is removed, they
claim, the law would be in such shape
that any taxing district could get
whatever sum of money it needs simp
ly by getting the taxation values on
the duplicates. The state taxing Off
cials would then be in shape to refer
taxing officials of the smaller districts
to their own failure to get values on
the duplicate if they lacked for funds

Private Rankers Hold Meetlna.

Private bankers OF the state held a
meeting at Columbus to organize
and to consider plans for meeting the
new conditions creates oy the consti'
tutional amendment Prohibiting the
use of the terms bank" or banks"
except by institutions under state or
national supervision. The meetings
were held at the Chittenden Hotel and
were attended by representative
number. No announcement was made
as to the plans agreed upon for con-
forming to the new conditions. 1t was
explained, however, that the situation
facing the private bankers is largely
one of legislation. Considerable anx-
iety is being experienced by this class
of bankers as to their prospects, and
persistent efforts to determine upon a
proper course Of action have been
made since the constitutional election
in SEPTEMBER. AS explained by one
of the bankers, the new conditions, If
carried into law, will practically put
the private bank in Ohio out of busi-
ness by compelling it to become a
state or national bank. A large num-
Der of cases are said to exist where
the community in which a private
bank is located does not justify suffi,
cient capital to meet the minimum re.
quirements of the state. Private
bankers say they do not object to SUI
pervision, in so far as this means ex-
aminations and reports OF condition,
but they believe that their interests
can be served better by not having to
conform to the regulations provided
by state and national banking laws.

Chairman H. j. Booth of Columbus,

will ask the circuit judges to change
the rules to provide for short bills
