OF tomatoes will be shipped from the
Pavo section within the next few
weeks, according to railroad men here.

Farm Relief Bill
Killed In The House
Opposition Too Much For Farm
Bloc To Overcome

Washington, June 4.-By a vote of
IA to 154 the McNary- Haugen bill
was killed in the House of Represen-
tatives Tuesday afternoon.
The opposition of administration
forces to the establishment of the
$200,000,000 export marketing corpor-
alton proposed by the bill to extend
relief to American farmers was too
much for Farm Bloc members, who
also failed in efforts to put in amend
ments, which might have assured ia
vorable action.

TO DECIDE FATE
OF LAMB SCHOOL
"Take None or All" is New
Plea of the Lamb School
District to City.
ACTION IS POSTPONED
Interesting Meeting Is Held
Tuesday Night but No Defin-
lite Action Is Taken.

The fate Of the Lamb school on the
South Sheridan road less than mile
south of the city limits Of Kenosha,
was hanging in the balance on Tues
day evening as representatives Of that
school district met with members of
the city council and the city school
board to discuss the proposed slle-
ing off of section of the Lamb
school district to add it to the city
school system.
Many of the taxpayers Of the dis
trict were in attendance at-the meet
ing and both opposition and support
was found for the change which has
been proposed. Finally it was NUT
ually agreed to adjourn the meeting
for two weeks to enable the officers
of the two school corporations to
investigate other methods of solving
the problem.
The Lamb school is in most per-
picking situation. Recently the city
annexed a territory off the north end
of the Lamb school district, which al
though it represents only one-tenth
of the district, has located in it one
half of the pupils now attending the
Lamb school. The present proposal
is to authorize a transfer of these
pupils to the Kenosha city schools.
This would leave the remainder of the
district to stand the expense of the
school, which would be a heavy burden.
At present several of the people re-
siding in the district annexed are
sending their children to the city
schools and are paying tuition for
them. They maintain that it is mani
testify unfair for them to be forced
to pay city taxes and then not be al
lowed school privileges.
After a rather spirited discussion
of the situation, Supervisor Dowse,
one of the members of the Lamb
school district board, came forward
with a proposal, that a joint school
district be formed whereby the city
would take over not only the small
section now annexed to the city but
also the entire Lamb school district.
his would mean that the Lamb school
wo~ be operated as part of the
city Sol system.
Recently The Lamb school district
issued bonds Tor an enlargement of
the building. Should the city take
over a part of the district it will be
necessary for it to assume a proper
tional share of this bond issue. Also
with half of the pupils leaving the
Lamb school, ) the present building
will be too large burden for those
remaining.
Since there was a chance of solu-
tion of the problem by the joint dis
trict method an adjournment was
taken. Meanwhile there is no change
in the school situation in that district.
The school board also appointed a
committee to investigate the posi-
bilities of the plan proposed for TAX
ing over the entire district.

Folks of Berlin
Bank With Beggar

Berlin. A bank conducted by a.
former match seller and beggar near
Alexander Place, the heart of the Sec
ton where the poorest of Berlin's
poor live, has the call over the big
banks of the city for patronage OF
mendicants, street fakirs, street
musicians, chours girls and others in
lowly stations. The proprietor of the
bank, Emil Neumann, formerly was 8
stockbroker. He lost his money by
speculation and about the same time
he lost leg when run over by train.
For ten years Neumann had been
one of the street folks, selling mat
ches and begging. One day he was rec
ognized by an old friend, who advanc-
ed sufficient money to him to establish
himself as broker and money dealer
on a small scale. The street folks had
confidence in him and gave their
marks to him. The confidence was re-
warded in receipts in dollars, pounds
or other stable currency, and hence
the street folks continue to patronize
Neumann's bank in preference to the
others which give receipts only in
marks,

TO OPEN BIDS ON
PAVING PROGRAM
Estimates Will be Received
on Six Miles of Paw
ing Tomorrow.
START WORK IN APRIL

Bids for the 1924 paving program
are to be opened at the office of the
city manager tomorrow 'at p. m. The
contractors will have approximate
six miles of paving to figure on, the
city engineer stated today.
The statistics which have been COM
piled by the engineering department
show that approximately $4,000 square
yards of paving will be done, while
preparatory to laying the concrete
about $4,000 cubic yards of dirt will
have to be graded out to get the roads
ready to surface. The program also
calls for about $4,000 lineal feet of
curb and gutter work.
The city engineer stated that it is
impossible TO give the figures on the
total cost of the work, due to the fact
that all bids which are submitted by
the contractors, are made on the es-
Inmates of the engineering department,
while payment is made on the actual
amount of work done. After the work
is completed the department takes a
final set of measurements and compu-
tations.
WOIh1 III WAS SCdCeu, Will De Started
as soon as the roads are in condition,
which according to present plans will
be about the 18th of April.
Bids are received on four types of
paving, it was stated. These types
are vitrified brick, sheet asphalt, as
phaltic concrete and reinforced con-
crete. The paving program is then re-
viewed by the common council which
decides on the type of pavement to be
used on each street, and the work IS
then awarded to the lowest bidder.
The nine mile program, which was
completed last year, contained more
than two miles which was left over
from the year before, it was said. Due
to the inability of the contractors to
get the necessary supply of cement be-
fore cold weather set in at the close
of the previous fall, the contractors
had to finish the work last summer.
The proposition of the city purchas-
ing the complete supply of cement at
one time and then reselling to the con-
tractors was investigated in the hope
of saving the city money. 1t was
found, however, that the contractors
could make better arrangements with
the firms.

cisco after President Harding had
been stricken and of the swiftness of
the tragedy Mr.. Hughes said:
"Not long before, in intimate con-
verse, when informed of the gravity of
his condition and of the probability
that if rescued from the immediate
peril he would still be condemned to
a life of invalidism and the exercise
of constant care which would pre-
clude the resumption of the routine OF
his labors, he had exclaimed, well, if
that is so, this story might as well
come to an end"
"That was true" Mr.. Hughes con-
tinued. "The only life he desired, that
Of energy and usefulness, he could no
longer hope to enjoy. Painlessly,
without warning and in a moment of
apparent refreshment, there was a
slight movement and he was gone. The
cares of his stewardship were lifted
and he was at rest in Gods peace"
Entry Into journalism.
Secretary Hughes told of the entry
of Mr.. Harding into journalism with
the purchase of the Marion Star, com
menting that the journalist career con-
stituted valuable training for public
Office because it demanded careful OBJ
servation.
.'Young Harding identified his sue
cess with that OF his town." Mr..
Hughes said. "He embodied the Am
erican spirit, carrying into the en-
deavors of the town the persistence
and courage of his pioneer forebears
who had made towns possible.
He was a great heart in newspaper
dom. He not only had his principles
but he codified and enforced them"
Taking up the political life Of Hard
ing, Mr.. Hughes said that he soon
from the addresses of President Hard
ing to show that ''his aspiration had
long been declared"
"The distinctive feature Of the
Washington conference was the def
mite and limited character of its aim, "
Mr.. Hughes continued. 'tAs the ex-
president said, it did not seek to re-
make humankind It did not waste its
time in utilities; it sought results,
not the vanities of reiterated profess
sions without accomplishments.
"There will always be problems in the
Far East, but it is not too much to
say that the Pacific and Far Eastern
questions as they existed at the time
Of the conference with their menace
to the peace of the world, are no
more"
The secretary of state recalled the
sad scenes of the funeral journey back
to Washington and the solemn funeral
services in the capital when ne said
Political differences were forgotten,
criticism hushed, and "a united peo-
| pie stood before the open tomb" He
told also Of the return to Marion
Ohio, and in concluding his address
said:
Gave Life for Country.
warren G. Harding gave his life
for his country. No one can do more
than that. He exhausted himself in
service, a martyr in fidelity to the in
terest of the people for whom he la
bored with a passionate devotion
Nothing human was alien to him and
he had the divine gift Of sympathy
"If American life with all its pos
sibilities Of conflict and turmoil is to
be worth living it must be lived in the
spirit of brotherly understanding Ct
which he will ever be an exemplar in
high Office"
