Gov. LOwden will sign the Bald
win-Ots-MueIer school bill at an
early date, the present school board
will be wiped out of existence and
Mayor Thompson will name a new
school board, probably for consider
alton at the first meetings of the new
city council. This was the predic-
ton today both at City Hall and
school board offices.

Mueller bill. 1t reduces the number
of school board members from q to
II. They are to be appointed by the
mayor and subject to confirmation
by the city council. Terms of Office

All power over the school board is
taken away from the city council by
the new bill except the right to pass
on the mayors appOintees and right
Of concurrence in sale of school land
and purchase of sites.
School land leases will require
twO-thirds majority of board for
valuation.
Teachers are guaranteed rights of
notice and trial before dismissal.
After three years probationary serv-
ice any teacher must be granted a

AID. BLOCK WILL GET GOOD
PLACE IN NEW COUNCIL
Two attempts will be made by
friends of Aid. Eugene Block to
avenge his ousting from the chair
manship of the local transportation
committee two years ago, when H.
D. Captain got his place,
A definite move is on among the
aldermen to re-seat Block in his
place on the transportation body, or,
if this fails, to give him the chair
manship of the gas, oil and electric
light committee which was left va
cent when Lewis Sits failed of re-
election.
The council is said to be dissatis-
fed with the way Aid. Captain has
followed the wishes of the street car
magnates in his dealings with the
traction affairs. They are sale, to be
figuring on placing in his stead a
man without a corporation view
point.
The gas, oil and electric light COM
mittee ranks third in the council and
is an important body, especially as
the matter Of a new gas ordinance is
coming up for consideration.

THROUGH U. S,
Foreign Affairs Minister
Says New Regime Will De
velop Relations.

ATHENS, Sept. 1. (By Mail.)-The
has announced in the Greek chamber
of deputies that the new Venizelos
regime would signalize it's return to
power by extending and developing re-
lations with the United States and by
giving the first definite recognition to
the extensive Greek colonies all over
the United States.
He submitted several MEASURES to
this end. namely, the establishment
of consul-generals at New York, San
Francisco and Chicago, consuls at
Boston and New Orleans and some
sixty honorary consular positions at
places where there are 1000 or 1900
Greeks.
The project also provides for ma
tional fund to be administered by the
Greek legation at Washington.
This national fund will be used,
said the minister, ito aid the societies
| looking after emigrants arriving in
America, getting work for them, look
ing after them when sick 1t will as
sist in founding schools, churches
benefit societies and organizations fol-
| the spread Of Greek literature and
J fine arts.
To Extend Greek Art.
!, There was great applause in the
chamber when the minister referred te
extending Greek art and literature il
America as it was the first suggestion
that Greece could furnish America
something more than toiling masses.
It appealed strongly to the nationa
pride, which considers Greece as the
birth place of art and literature anc
rather resents the idea that cheap la
Dor is what Greece is chiefly contri
buting to Amrica.

BARNARD URGES
CONSUMPTION OF
SUGAR Be CUT
State Food Chief Explains
Why Excess Must Go to
France.

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. Every
family in Indiana is being asked by
DR., Harry E. Barnard, representative
OF Herbert Hoover, national food ad-
ministrator. in this state, and by the
State Council of Defense, to reduce its
per capita consumption of sugar from
4 ounces to at most ounces and II
possible to 21s ounces, in order that
there may be accumulated surplus
OF 100000 tons for export to France
There is not now this surplus in the
country, Mr.. Hoover states, and the
only way it can become available is
through reduced consumption.
Mr.. Hoover is anxious that nothing
be done to interfere with the success
full preservation of fruit, in which SUI
gar is so essential He particularly
cautions state food commissioners
against the false economy that might
result from the Withholding enough
sugar properly to preserve the food
stuffs now being harvested from fruit
trees. 1t is by other, more practical
and less hazardous methods of saving.
that he hopes to have the desired
100000 tons.
Copy Of Telegram.
Following is the telegram received
by Mr.. Barnard from Mr. Hoover, and
has been made the subject of special
bulletin from the Indiana State Coun-
Gil of Defense, to county councils,
through them to be made the subject
of special appeal to the citizenship
of the state:
I'VE have received a request from
the French Government that we allow
them to export from the United
States 100000 tons of sugar during the
next month, and probably more at a
later period.
Our own situation is that we have
just sufficient sugar to maintain our
normal consumption until the first Of
January. when the new West Indian
crop becomes available to all.
Our consumption is at the rate of
80 pounds per person per year-a lit
tie under ounces per day per person.
The French people are on ration
of sugar equal to only 81 pounds per
annum per person-or at the rate of
less than 1 single ounce per day per
persona little more than the weight
of silver dollar each day.
THE English and Italian rations are
also not over ounce per day.
Will Be Without It
THE French people will be entire
~ without sugar for over two months
If we refuse to part with enough from
our stocks to keep them supplied
with even this small allowance, as it
is not available from any other quar-
ter. Sugar even to greater amount
than the French ration is a human
necessity. If our people will reduce
by one-third their purchases and con-
sumption of candy and Of sugar for
other uses than preserving fruit
which we do not wish to interfere
with, we can save the French situa-
ton.
In the interest of the French peo-
pie, and of the loyalty we owe them
to divide our food in the maintenance
of our common cause, l ask the Amer
lean people to do this. It is unthink
able that we refuse their request.
