corded and that advance payments of
railroad freight have been made to
contractors. The last named point
may prove to be the most serious
In paying out money by means of
bank checks Mr.. Wright acted through
what is called revolving fund. This
fund was supposed to amount to $751;
900 but was depleted and replenished
from time to time so that something
like $2,000,000 was spent through that
fund. The accounts board believes
that such sums should be paid out by
the state auditor on voucher since it
is the duty of the auditors office to
check up on all large expenditures.
To Relieve Auditor. 80
There was talk today about making
several changes in the law relating to
the highway commission and it was
believed to be necessary that some re-
lief be given in the state auditors Of
flee so his force will be sufficient to
do all checking up on the highway
commission which has come in the
last few years to be the largest money
spending bureau in the state.
1t has already been said that the
governor will take some drastic action
in regard to the personnel of the COM
mission when the legislative session
has ended but it is not believed that
the report of the accounts board being
made public at this time will result in
any decided movement to cut the high
way commission levy down to a very
low point. 1t appeared today from
what was being said that the legisla-
ture will continue in its present mood
Of willingness to give a reasonab BILE
levy to the highway commission but
that it will wish to be assured in every
way that the large expenditures of the
commission will be properly safe
guarded.

CHINESE FAMINE TOLL.
RIVALS GREAT WAR.
lRy Associated Press,

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-Fathers and
mothers in some of the famine
stricken districts of China are COM
hitting suicide rather than watch
their children sIarve to death, says a
report received at the headquarters of
the Methodist Board of Foreign Mis-
sions here from DR.. Ralph A. Ward,
one Of its missionaries in China.
'Multitudes- flee from the foodless
districts only to die of exposure and
hunger in distant cities where rice
lines are insufficient" wrote DIR.
Ward -
"Able-bodied men, old women and
children scramble over each other in
the streets in the rush for a copper
flung by a passerby. Children are
often crushed at stations of food dis
tribution.''
DR.. Ward repeats the assertion
previously published that 1000 per.
sons are dying daily in the famine
stricken district and adds: More
people face starvation in China this
winter than persisted on the battle
fields of the great war"
The Rev. Henry S. Leitzel. Meth
odist missionary at Sainfu, Shantung,
wrote of visiting many villages where
there was no signs of fuel or grain of
any kind. There was nothing but
desolation," he went on. THE people
were sitting around hopeless, discour-
aged and listless. They know there
is nothing to do but starve and end
the struggle
At least 10000 Chinese Christians
are among the famine sufferers, the
Rev. Lyman l.. Hale, reported in a
letter, In many cases, he said, whole
church memberships have been hope
lessly scattered.
Officials of the missionary board
| fear that the famine will greatly re-
tard the work of missionaries in some
areas where they have gained a foot
! hold only by years of effort.

cedent ...
They ask the court to set aside and
hold invalid the latter document The
late Jacob Hittle was a former resi-
dent Of Greenville, living on Vine
street. He died about month ago.
Hiatt Petition Granted.
The petition for the Hiatt ditch,
located in Liberty township, was up
for hearing before the Darke county
commissioners. and same was granted.
The hearing on apportionment of as
sessments will be held March 8.
Plaintiff Given Judgment.
The jury in the case of Ida M. Lep-
hart VS.. James Polling and Augustus
Lephart. executors of the estate of
Henry Lephayt, after celebrating for
about an hour, returned verdict in
favor of the plaintiff.
The case was for the support of
minor children, accounting, and other
relief. Only a few witnesses were
called and the case was given to the
jury at noon. Verdict was returned in
the sum of $465, the full amount ask
ed in the petition of the plaintiff.
Ditch Petition Granted.
At meeting of the Dark county
commissioners held Thursday, the Pc
tition for the Straker-Rhoades ditch in
Mississinawa township was granted.
Another hearing will be held on the
case in March, probably for the ap-
portionment of assessments.
Receivers Lost Ford.
D. o. Besecker, of this county, went
to New Lebanon, south of Dayton, re-
Gently for the purpose of recovering
a Ford car stolen from him last No
vember. Besecker had driven in to
Arcanum and had left the car parked
in front of the office OF Dr. Byers.
Upon returning about half an hour
later discovered that it had been
stolen.
Word was received from the New
Lebanon authorities that the car had
been sold to man named Snyder, at
that place, and Besecker went to claim
his property.
Rohr Will Filled.
Rebecca Rohr, widow of the late
Peter Rohr, is named as executrix in
the will filed for probate here. The
will. which was made in August, 1917
provides for payment of all debts, and
the balance of the estate to be the
property of the widow until her death
at which time it is to be diveded

which have been drawn to amend the
1919 law against the teaching of the
German language in the schools are
doomed to defeat. &s...
1t was said that the advancement of
the Bowers bill in the senate was
merely a compliment to Senator Bow.
ers but regardless of what the senate
might do, it was said that the bills
would be overwhelmingly defeated In
the house and that the unfavorable
action by the house on the boxing COM
mission bill which was supposed to
have the support Of the American
legion could in no way be taken as
an indication that favorable action will
be had on the German bills which are
opposed by the legion.
While the boxing commission bill
was supposed to have the support of
the legion, it is said that many legion
posts in the state were opposed to it.
Trustee Bill to Fail.
There is probably not much chance
that the Senator Rats bill to abolish
the office of township trustee as a
school office will get through the legis-
lature, but it is almost exactly the
kind of measure that has been recon-
mended by Prof. w. w. Black of In
diana university, who has made wide
study of the rural school system. Prof
Black says that regardless of increas-
ed available money there is little hope
of improvement in the rural schools
until the county becomes the educa-
tional unit and the employment of
rural teachers is placed in the hands
of county boards and much greater
supervision is esta blished for the rural
school system.
But it is rather late in the legisla.
tive session and the township trus-
tees are numerous and not without
political power so it is hardly proba BILE
the bill will get anywhere this session
The most that is hoped for it is that
it may start some OF the legislators to
thinking and get something under
way for next session.
Score Highway Work.
Summed up briefly the report of the
state board of accounts on the high
way commission is that too much pur
chasing has been done without com
petitive bids; that Mr.. Wright, the di
rector, has drawn large sums of mon
ey, in the aggregate about $4,000, 900
from the state treasury and has paid il
out by means of checks; that the min
ute books have not been properly

Central American Party
Adopts Pacificist Measures
tBy Associated Press

SANTA ANA, Salvador. Feb. IS
Work of laying the foundation for the
Central American Unionist party was
completed by the Unionist convention,
which began it's sessions here last
Monday and closed today. Represen-
tatives of political elements of Saliva
dor, Honduras and Nicaragua were in
attendance, and the Mexican minister
to Salvador was present during the
sessions of the convention. The new
political party will adopt pacifist
measures, and declares it has no idea
of adopting violent means to accom-
plish it's purposes. Solidarity with the
movement was indicated by Guatma-
Ian representatives .
