OGDEN, Jan. 23.-CharacteriZing as
"autocratic tyranny" the efforts OF Su-
perlntendent John NJ. Mills in behalf OF
the proposed halliday sessions in the
Ogden public schools Weber camp No
resolutions against the Inauguration OF
the system and demanding the resigna-
tion OF the schools head II he persists In
forcing his plan forward.
II is the intention OF the lodge TO
present copies of the resolutions, which
were adopted al last nights meeting OF
the camp, to Superintendent Mills and
members OF the board OF education. One
of those prominent In the action OF the
local lodge was Charles Il. Ganske, the
camp banker, husband OF Mrs. G. q.
ogden city schools and who recently
wrote a scathing criticism of Superin-
tendent Mills and Principal Henry Peter
son for their action on the new plan,
Mr.. Ganske declares that the resolutions
were adopted by a vote OF approximate
~ six 10 one. He refused to state how
many members OF the camp attended last
nights meeting.
The resolutions are signed by the ac-
credited officers of the camp,
When shown a copy of the resolutions
this afternoon superintendent Mills de-
MED that the plan was to go into effect
In the junior high schools next Monday
morning. With regard 10 the submitting
of the proposition 10 the vote OF the peo-
pie. he said that 1t would be similar to
asking the people whether arithmetic
should be taught at Q or II 80 o'clock in
the morning.
The school head also denied a report
that the teachers OF the public schools
had been asked to attend special meet
Ing tomorrow morning for the purpose
of voting on the proposed plan. The
meeting, he said, was one OF the regular
sessions provided on the school calendar
for departmental work. II will be at
tended by Charles Pugh, A special in
structor In arithmetic.

Bankers Stir Up Prices.

Market observers drew tle conclusion
that ell-placed orders from banking

argued that the public shows dispo-

periods Of protracted dullness or any,
thing that might suggest weakness.
Many important bond issues are pending
