 Chairman of Credentials Committee

Cleveland, June 6.-By unanimouse vote the republican national commit. tee seated today four delegates al large from Arkansas headed by Ma, tional Committeeman H. L. Remmel oi Little Rock.
 The committee threw out the claim of bolting delegation headed by Scipio A. Jones. Committeeman Rem mel in concluding the argument for the contestees characterized Jones case as absurd, and contcnded that his delegation had been elected by rep resentatives from a single county Pulaski.
 Scipio A. Jones, one of the contest ing delegates, presented the case on behalf of himself and his associates, George Scott, E. Nj. Caver and J. A. Hibbler.
 Jones contended that the contes- tants headed by national committee. man Remmel, had been selected by state convention, the majority of which had been fraudulently elected by county conventions held without legal notice in buildings where negro republican lectors could not attend.
 There was further allegation that certain faction Of the republican party, in control Of the organization in Arkansas had ''conspired" 10 de- prire more than 100000 negro repub- lican electors of the right Of suffrage.
 Credentials Chairman.
 The first recognition of the senate in arrangements for the republican national convention was given today with the selection of Senator William B. Mckinley of Illinois as chairman Of the credentials committee.

At a gathering ot

At gathering of fEess- -feJ commissioners that menr.~ "s an an informal conference" tuu commission last night discussed nu- merous changes in the present garage policies and there were whisperings of a change in the chairmanship al next Monday nights regular meeting.
 George Il. Wells. republican and former member of the council, is the present chairman. 1t is understood that he will be displaced by either ex-Councilman Michael F. King or Charles P. Mccarthy, probably the latter. Mir. Mccarthy is in the auto mobile accessory business and has been a member of the board for two years,
 Assistant Mechanic Resigns.
 The commissioners had before them last night the resignation of Walter Wagner, assistant to City Mechanic Lincoln May. No action was taken on the resignation.
 As a result of last nights discus sion, the charges for services will probably be increased. The present fee is 70 cents an hour with all parts sold to boards at cost. The actual labor cost has been figured al 7s cents an hour, leaving but two cents for the purchase of equipment and the expenses incidental to maintain ing the garage. Members of the board Of finance and taxation have expressed themselves as of the belief that the garage commission should make higher charge.
 Win Give Evening Service.
 The board will probably have Mir Mays assistant put on a new work ing schedule that will require his presence in the garage evenings. Un- der the present scheme, both me- chanics work from a. m. 10 p, m. and no one is in the garage evenings to look after cars coming in or go- Ing out
 There have been some complaints that city cars cannot be washed be- cause they arc busy during the day and no one is at hand in ine Fse ming 10 do the work IT the propos 1 change is r31e. ts assistant VIII look after this work fin the evening.

Brands Means Testimony as False But Miller Challenges
 SeCretary's Statement
SAYS HE WAS PRESENT
 AT ONE CONVERSATION
Alien Property Custodian Declares He Brought Means and Gilbert Togeth- er-Secrctary's statement Scoffs At Bring In Additional Proof If It Should Be Desired By Committee.

Washington, June 6--Secretary Mel lon today entered 8 formal denial of charges leyelled against his conduct of the treasury department, by Gas ton B. Means, in testimony before the senate Daugherty committee.
 In a letter to the committee the sec rotary denied in detail Means story about his investigations into a report that Mir. Mellon had agreed to issue whiskey withdrawal permits 10 Rex Sheldon Of New York in return for money to help make up the deficit of the republican national committee.
 Miller Denies Denial
 The denial applied in part to a com Nersation on the subject which Means said took place between himself and former under-S Secretary Gilbert of the treasury, but as soon as the secretary's letter had been entered in the record, Thomas W. Miller, the alien property custodian, testified that he himself had been present at such a conversa- ton.
 Miller said he brought Means and Gilbert together in his office.
 "T cant say exactly what was dis eussed," he continued, but it con- cerned Rex Sheldon. Means then was an agent of the department of jus ticc."
 On this point Secretary Mellon had said in his letter:
 This is characteristic ot Means testimony. Ar. Gilbert never met Mir Means. No interview took place"
 Melons Letter
 Taking mp point by point the charges and inferences made in the testimony ot Gaston E. Means before the Daugherty committee, Secretary Mellon said in his letter to Chairman Rrookhart:

 Push Case at Once
s AND IA YEARS IN PRISON
 MINIMUM FOR EACH COUNT
However, Both Kidnapping For Ran- som And Murder Are Punishable by Death-Tbird Indictment Charging Conspiracy To Murder Also Prob- ably Will Be Brought Against Youths Who show No Emotion

Youths Who show No Emotion Chicago, June s-Two indictments charging Nathan Leopold, Jr.. and Richard Loeb, post graduate students and sons of millionaires, with tho kid- mapping for ransom. and murder of Robert Franks, schoolboy, which they have confessed, were returned by the county grand jury today
 Held Without Bail
 Both youths were ordered held without bail by Chief Justice Cayerly of the criminal court. Kidnapping for ransome and murder each are capital offenses in Illinois. with a minimum penalty of five years in prison for kidnapping for ransom, and IA years for murder.
 The prisoners were indicted jointly. The murder indictment contained ii counts and the Kidnapping indictment l6 counts. Seventy witnesses gave testimony before the grand jury.
 With the state preparing for an early trial--the prosecution may ask for trial on July 1S--the next step in the prosecution will be arraiement of the two youths. probably Monday.
 Third Charge Likely
 The two advanced student prisoners Leopold, a law student, and Loeb who had begun post graduate course in history--are expected to be named in a third indictment now pending before the grand jurors and charging conspiracy 10 murder. IL Is not ex- pected they will go on trial on this charge which carries only a penalty of one to five years in prison. That indictment will be sought hy the state merely to place before the grand jury the testimony of additional witnesses.
 The numerous counts Of the mur- dor and kidnapping indictment were drafted for technical purposes. to meet all phrases of the statutory pro. visions and to prevent any possible technical defenses, the states attorne. said. The statute covering Kidnapping for ransom, distinguished from ordin- ary Kidnapping. uses both terms or ransom and money. Consequently the kidnapping indictment, eleventh count charged "inveigling for the purpose Of eNtorting money" and the twelfth count. 'inveigling for the purpose of sxtorting ransom"

RECLAIMING
IDLE YOUTHS
BY VIM. A. McKeever-


~ NE day in seven is enough
for retaining maynard
~ and Indifferent youths and
placing them on the road to
worthy accomplishment. Such
is the theory of a director Of vo.
cational education in small city
of Illinois. place ideals above
subject matter"-that is the motto
by means of which he does his
unusual work.
Here we find 256 boys and
girls ranging from fourteen to
seventeen-all cutters, who left
school because they found it I'm.
attractive. But the State law
caught them. requiring them to at
tend some kind of school one day
in the week. AS a rule, 1 find, such
cases come into the class room
sullen and some Of them even
defiant. They have been i'm.
pressed by the law, and they
naturally resent what seems a
curtailment Of their liberty.
But this township vocational
school is different. Its first
methods are those of dealing
with the personality. The homes
and the places Of employment of
all the members are visited. If
necessary, so that there NAV be
established first a comradship
between the teacher and the
learner. A splendid man is kent
in the field making personal con-
facts with these side-steppine
youths, till they learn to come to
him and the director as friends
rather than as teachers.
After this warm personal
friendship is sealed, the remain.
der is easy, the boy or girl natu-
rally desiring to learn and to
make something out of lies

The new successful school il
turning from books and things to
personalities. 1t is showing more
and more an interest in the
awakening soul. 1t assumes that
the life and the learning Of the
child will be dull so long as he is
not stirred by his own interests
and bright as soon as his ideals
are properly aroused and put to
work,
