SCHOOL BOARDS TO
DECIDE, CAN WIVES
OF SOLDIERS TEACH

Washington, Nov. 21.-The provost
marshal general, having one war on
his hands already, is not looking for
any more trouble. So he passed up
to the various local school boards the
question of giving married women
teaching jobs.
In some cities a man with an ex-
teacher wife may be drafted if his
wife can support herself at her old
profession. In other cities, which ban
married women as teachers, the hus-
band may plead her dependency as
grounds for his exemption.

cox DEATH A MYSTERY
Police Have Theory Kansas Cityan
Was Shot by Mistake.

Kansas City, Nov. 21.-Police today
had made little progress in the in
vestigation of the death of Olin NJ.
Cox. % years old, who was shot
shortly after leaving the home of his
fiancee in Kansas City, Kan, late
last night. His body was found at
the entrance of an alley. Two shots
were heard by several people in the
neighborhood. and two persons were
seen running down the alley. Both
were believed to Sbe men, but a
woman's- voice was heard, altho no
one has been found who saw her.
The police believe there is no sup
port for the premeditated murder
theory, as Cox had no known enemies.
Relatives of his fiance believe he
was shot when he resisted highway
men, but the police lean to the theory
that he was mistaken for a robber by
a man and a woman and was shot by
mistake.

EYE ON DECISION
Other Stamp Companies Watching
S. & HI. Case Here.

Whether the anti-trading stamp law
which knocked the Sperry & Hutch
inSon people out of KaI SaS will have
a similar effect on other stamp COM
panies will be determined in test
case. Information has reached Rob
ert D. Carver county attorney. that
the Surety Coupon company, repre-
scented by Ferry & Doran in Topeka, is
awaiting the withdrawal of a restrain
ing order, making prosecution impos-
sible, to have a representative of the
company arrested and a test case
opened.
This company has been operating
in Topeka, thru Paxton & Paxton and
people have stopped issuing coupons,
or stamps, pending decision by the
court as to whether the anti-trading
stamp law affects them.
A restraining order has been issued
by the court making prosecution for
noncompliance with the stamp law
impossible. That order was issued
for the purpose of making further le-
gal ENHANCEMENT impossible while the
case was under consideration by the
supreme court. Carver has filed a
motion asking that the restraining
aside, the stamp people plan to start
proceedings that will end in their
prosecution and decision as to
whether the law includes them.
These coupons issued by the Surety
Coupon company to local merchants
and given by the merchants to the
customers differ somewhat from the
stamps. of the Sperry & Hutchinson
people. They are redeemable in mer-
chandise at their face value at the
stores, according to Garver's under
standing, or a cash payment will be
made. If the merchandise value OF
! the coupons is $3.50, the Gu; toner
may receive $2.25 in cash. Coupons
