SUPPORT OF CODE
BY OHIO teachers
EDUCATORS WILL FIGHT ANY AT
TEMPT BY LEGISLATOR TO
NEEDLE WITH LAW.
ACTION SOON TO Be TAKEN
State Association to Consider the
Methods for Increasing Educa-
tionaI Revenues.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Columbus, O.-Two propositions
which are to be given more emphasis
than any other at the meeting here,
December rs to %, of the Ohio State
Teachers Association are preserva-
ton of the 1914 Ohio school code and
that of adequate revenues for schools.
Leading school authorities of Ohio and
speakers from several other states will
discuss those questions. Not that the
teachers of Ohio are afraid that the
incoming state administration will re-
peal the school code, passed under the
former administration of Gov. Cox, but
they don't want any such attempt to
be dignified even with a vote in the
legislature. There are known to be a
few legislators-elect who are reaction
aries to the extent of desiring the old
system back.
Methods of raising more money for
school purposes will be discussed from
many angles. Educators say the
schools are as hard hit by the limita-
tions of the Smith 1 per cent as the
large cities. Modification of the law
is proposed by some educators of the
state. Others who think this is impos
sible or inadvisable, suggest that the
legislature be asked to allow 81 in
stead of 50 for each enumerated per
son of school age, as the states por
ton toward support of public schools
Among speakers before the associa
ton will be: Fred L. Keeler, state su
perintendent of public instruction Of
Michigan, who has reorganized the ru
raj schools of the state; DR.. E. W

MAY GUST GREEK KING
ALLIES THREATEN TO PUNISH
RULER FOR ATHENS ATTACK.
House of Commons Hears That Mon
arch Was Involved in Recent
Events at Capital.

London, Dec. 6.-The Greek minis
ter in London and the Greek consuls
in London and Manchester have re-
signed, stating that they are unable
further to identify themselves with
the policy of King Constantine.
In the house of commons on Monday
Lord Robert Cecil, war trade minister,
said that the British government con-
sidered King Constantine and his gov
ernment to have been involved in the
events Mt Athens and that the British
government in conjunction with its al
lies would take immediate steps to
bring about radical solution" of the
question which had arisen.
(The suggestion of radical solu-
ton" affecting the Greek king is sup
posed to be a yelled threat that the
allies will move to dethrone that mon
arch, or at least to make his position
merely nominal and politically power
less.)
The feeling against King Constan-
tine, who is charged with having done
everything possible to embarrass the
allies, has been growing here and de
mands that steps be taken to check
his activities have become more in
sistent.

BOYCOTT ENDS EGG CORNER
Prices Drop 10 Cents at Chicago Fol-
lowing Drastic Action Taken by
Women-Fo oodstuffs Lower.

Chicago, Dec. 9.-The "egg corner"
is smashed.
Food prices are tumbling.
Spectators, packers and produce
men are unloading"
This was the good news brought to
Chicago housewives on Thursday on
the heels Of the opening of the federal
grand jury hearing, egg and butter
iboycotts, and report of warehouse
men showing the selling out Of big
holdings Of eggs.
Eggs have dropped ten cents dozen,
wholesale, in the last ten days. Butter
is cents cheaper than it was a week
ngO. Potatoes started on the downward
road with drop of from 5 to s cents
in the week. Southern fruits and vege-
tables came down from to 10 cents.
While packers and produce men
were inclined to hold the boycott re-
spOnsible for the drop in prices, the big
shift came with the opening of the fed
eral grand jury's investigation of food
prices.
That the packers and warehousemen
and produce men are unloading"
boarded supplies Of foodstuffs became
known Immediately after a conference
between Arthur Meeker, vice president
of Armour 4 Co., and United States
District Attorney Charles f. Clyne.

BUCHAREST IS TAKEN
PLoEcHTl, IMPORTANT RAILWAY
CENTER, ALSO CAPTURED BY
TEUTONlC FORCES.
5000 PRISONERS ARE TAKEN
Fall of Roumanian Capita! Marks the
elimination of One of the Most Bril-
IiantIy Conceived Campaigns in His
tory-kirg's Army in Peril.

Berlin, Dec. G.-Bucharest, capital
of Roumania, has been captured, it
was announced officially here on
Wednesday.
Ploechti, the important railway
junction town, SO miles northwest Of
Bucharest, also has been taken.
Field Marshal Won Mackensen's
preached the railway line running
northward from Bucharest to Ploech-
ii, causing the Roumanians to evacu-
ate their positions north of Sinaia, the
war office announced.
South of Bucharest the Teutonic
troops have occupied other towns
along the River Alt. More than 6,OO0
ROumanians were captured.
The capture of Ploechti, on the rail-
way running north from Bucharest,
cuts the main line of retreat for the
ROumaniah armies operating in the
Bucharest region. The official state
ment does not indicate whether the
entry of the Teutonic forces into Bu-
charest and Ploechti was simultane-
Gus. The capture of Ploechti before
that of the capital would be far more
serious for the Roumanians.
The taking of Bucharest virtually
completes the conquest by the Teu-
tonic forces of the southern section OF
the ROumanian kingdom, embracing
territory of more than $4,000 square
| miles.

TO HEAD NEW CABINET
DAVID LLOYD-GEORGE WILL RE-
PLACE AsoUlTH AS PREMIER.
Reported That General Joffre, Com
mander in Chief of Allied Armies,
May Resign.

London, Dec. David LloydGeorge
has overthrown the Asquith cabinet
and will become prime minister him
self.
The new government will be coali-
ton, like the old one, but probably
without the same measure of har-
monious support which attended the
formation of the first coalition gov
ernment, because its birth has created
additional factional differences.
There was a prospect that the per-
sonal offices of the king might solve
the situation, and many thought that
the Asquith regime might be continued.
The king celled the party leaders to
Buckingham palace and conferred with
them for more than an hour. Mr.. AS
quith and Mr.. LlOyd-George of the Lib
erals, Bonar Law and Mr.. Balfour Of
the Unionists and Mr.. Henderson of
the labor party We're with the sover-
eign.
1t is many years since a British ruler
assembled the representatives Of the
different factions face to face when
they had shown themselves unable to
settle their differences. But no such
serious crisis has arisen before to re-
quire such action by the king.
The king gave an audience to Mr..
Bonar Law, who declined to undertake
| the formation of a new ministry, and
then to Mr.. Lloyd-George, who accept
ed the responsibility, as everyone an
ticipated he would if the opportunity
came to him.
The official announcement that Mr.
LlOyd-George had undertaken the task
with the cooperation of Mr.. Bonar
Law, was a notification that the new
government would be coalition.
There is strong ground for belief
that Mr.. Asquith who resigned as pre-
mier last night, will have no place in
the new coalition government.
Dispatches from Paris quote politi
cal writer's as saying that the politica
dpheavals may be followed by the res
ignation of General Joffre.
There are reports that the French
government may be changed so as tt
concentrate authority for quicker de
cisions and action.

ERB IN JAIL REVEALS PAST
Former Railroad President, Held at
Chicago as Automobile Thief,
Breaks Silence.

Chicago, Dec. 8.-The "checkered
career a term often applied to the
experiences of one who has practiced
various occupations with dubious sue
cess, was applied to the past of Louis

LINER CALLED A TRANSPORT
Note From. Germany Contends subma-

Washington, Dec. 9.-Germany in
note made public on Thursday by the
state department contends that the
British steamer Arabia, sunk in the
Mediterranean November 6, was In
reality "a transport ship for troops in
the service Of the British government,
which Is to be considered as an aux
Ilinry warshlp according to interna-
uonal law, and can, therefore, be treat

In the Marina case, is expressed to be
one Of readiness TO make amends if 1t
be shown that the submarine comman-
der violated Germany's pledges to the
United States and made "regrettable
mistake"
1t may be said that the United States

justification for sinking the Arabia

submarine commander from establish
ing the status Of the liner.
