Local Kiwanis Club
Backs Mayor Shank

We want you 10 know that we are be-
hind your administration 100 per cent. -
declared Paul Donald Brown. secretary
OF the Kiwanis Club. and one Of three
Kiwanians who called upon Mayor sam
uel Lewis Shank today to explain why
0. 7. Owen had been Withdrawn as the
clubs representative on the mayors com
mittee investigating the Indianapolis
Street Railway Company's financial con
ditiOu.
Mr.. Brown said some misunderstanding
a. to why the club decided to withdraw
Mr.. OTHn as its representative exists. II
was in no spirit of antagonism to MI
Shank, but rather through realization Of
the lack Of qualification of the club mem
bership to act as q body in such a tech
ricaI matter that the club decided to
withdraw. Mr.. Brown said.
The mayor thanked the committee for
its assurance Of support. saying he had
received the impression that the club felt
that in appointing the citizens committee
he was trying to shift responsibility.
Mr. Owen and Carl s. Wagner were
with Mr. Brown.

BOARD
OBTAINS LOAN
OF $1,OOO,OOO
Merchants National Bank and
Indiana Trust COmpany's
Bid Accepted.

The bid Of the Merchants National Bank
and the Ind ana Trust Company for q
loan Of $1,0UOOOO to the Indianapolis
board of school commissioners to defray
the running expenses Of the school city
until June 30, was accepted by the board
at a special meeting today. The bid was
for interest at the rate of 400 per cent.
OF this amount $4,000 will be turned
over to the board Immediately and the
balance Of 100000 April 49,
Two other bids were received as follows
S. NJ. Bond e. Co. of New York City,
per cent plus q premium Of $3.50; Union
Trust Company and the Fletcher Saw
ing and Trust Company, 6 per cent.
1t was explained that this loan will
not increase the Indebtedness Of the
board, as the money will be used for re-
funding previous loans from the build
ing bond funds and other sources. How
ever, Walter j. Twiname, business direc-
tor, explained that the school city will
be out Of money for running expenses
after June 80. when this loan will be
paid off until the November instalmenI
Of taxes IS paid. 1t Is believed that the
loan viii be converted into bonded in
debtedness eventually.
After the offer Of e. Howard Cadle to
give the Cadle tabernacle free Of charge
to the school board for June q, % and q
for the commandments Of the three
Indianapolis high schools had been held
up for almost an hour by the quibbling
Of ". D. Allison, member Of the board
the other members made no effort to con-
ceal their disgust at what they frankly
termed unnecessary delay and voted to
/ accept the offer. When the fnal vote
came Mr.. Allison did not vote.
! The matter was brought up by DR.
/ Marie Haslep. chairman Of the instruc-
| ton committee Of the board. She re-
| ported that through the kindness OF Mr.
! Cadle, Mai. Earl F. Kites, pastor, and
other officials OF the tabernacle, an offer
to give the board the tabernacle free OF
! charge had been made. This offer wa,
conditional only on the dates being, June
| II, % and %, instead Of juno II, Is, and
| 10, the dates originally selected by the
| board.
It was at this point that Mr. Allison
Indiana daily times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1914-1922, 1922-03-17

launched into his series of objections.
These were some of his questions: Did
the high school principals approve
Of the offer? Did they think n
change in dates advisable? Was Mr..
Cadle trying to get ublicity out of
the offer3 Would the change in
arrangements upset the program already
arranged? Would it be possible for the
commencement speakers to change their
dates? What did Superintendent Graft
think Of 1t? Wouldn't 1t be advisable to
go ahead with the original plan of using
TomlinsOn Hall? Why not delay any
action and talk to the high school prin-
cipals about the change? and so on for
fully thirty minutes.
All the time the other board members
kept getting more restless, and after sew
eral Intellectual efforts to break into the
discussion Commissioner AdoIph Emhardt
said, with some show Of feeling:
II have my business at attend to-
can't see the use of all this delay and
talking. Let's do something"

CEMENT TRUST

Commission Indicated Boy
colt Ended.

Evidence the state highway commits
sions Of the Central States had given up
their fight TO boycott the alleged cement
trust was seen IN kilograms reaching
Lawrence Lyons Of the Indiana COM
mission today. The Indiana highway
commission recently let contracts for
approximately s1.OOO.OOO IN cement con-
tracts after having brought about re-
duction Of original estimates.
It was explained Indiana has acted
entirely Independent Of other States in
buying cement and entered into no agree
ment regarding the purchase OF cement.
Representatives from the Indiana com
mission did, however, attend meetings
with other commission members In Chi
cago recently.
In order that extensive plans Of the
Illinois and Michigan highway commits
sions may get under way, it appears
they we're forced to buy cement under
less favorable conditions than hoped for.
The State Of Illinois, according to a
telegram TO Lyons, has purchased 100000
barrels Of cement ct $50 net mill price.
Rejected all other bids. VIII take new
bids for 100000 barrals, also for ninety
four miles hard-surfaced roads"
The net mill price is the same as OBJ
tanned by the Indiana commission, but,
according to reports from Chicago, an
expensive joker" in the purchase Of tbs
Illinois commission is a 10 cents a bar
rel storage charge, which brings the
total TO SL45. The Indiana commission
has made provision for contractors TO
provide storage facilities.
The State highway commission officials
would give no Interpretation Of the fact
the cement for the National road had
been obtained on better basis than tina.
