Boy, page Clarence Darrow; evo-

Staid, sedate barber shops of yes

women feared to tread-have 'evo-
luted" into beauty parlors.
The old fashioned barber shop with
its picture embellished walls, sporting
literature and hilarious topics OF con-

in the hall of memory by the more
modern and refined emporium.
Gone are those works of art-pict-

That Oregon School
Law
Ia

N sending the Oregon school law to the
l junk pile of things unconstitutional, the
held in effect, that children are not wards of
United States Supreme Court unanimously
the State and that parents have right to send
them to any school they think best.
Among other things the court said HThe
fundamental theory of liberty upon which all
governments in this Union repose excludes any
general power of the State to standardize its
children by forcing them to accept instruction
from public teachers only"
Had the Oregon school law been held con-
stitutional, it would then have been possible
for such States as Tennessee to enact a similar
law which, in connection with the present law
forbidding the teaching of the theory of evo-
luton in all schools receiving public support,
would have made it impossible for the youth
of such States to emerge from gross ignorance
Undoubtedly this unanimous opinion will
check to extent the growing tendency to
standardize not only children, but all citizens
by law. By establishing pattern of 100 per
cent Americanism all majority needed was
enough law to make everybody conform to the
pattern and think, act and live their daily lives
exactly as tyrannical majority thought they
ought to be lived.
The Supreme Court has saved the right
to have schools where petty politicians may not
interfere with education, but that ism t enough
1t is much more important that the public
schools themselves be free and that in them
the fundamental theory of liberty be preserved
in all various influences on the life of the
American people. There must be not only free
dom of speech, but freedom of conscience and
freedom of thought.
There is more to the United States Consti-
tuition than one amendment. The first ten
known as the Bill of Rights, must be preserved
in all their original vitality.

Coliseum and Schools

Al AYOR SHANK, evidently following his
llVl announced policy of economy, has signed
an ordinance calling for an expenditure of
nearly half million dollars for site for mu-
nicipal coliseum.
indianapolis needs a coliseum. 1t has
needed it for years in order to carry out its
reputation of being an ideal convention city
Other cities have demonstrated that a coliseum
centrally located can be made to pay for itself
But we fail to see why the city chose
site SO far from the center of things. The new
coliseum, if the project is carried out, will be
eight blocks from the center Of the city. From
the very nature of the institution, it should be
downtown. I: seems to us that the same amount
Of money could have been spent for site, per-
haps somewhat smaller, nearer downtown Per
haps somewhere directly south of Washington
St., or directly west Of the Statehouse, within
walking distance of the downtown district.
number of business men have pledged
themselves to get behind the bond issue for the
ground and the building7-to cost in the end
probably some 100000.
In a short time the city must go to the
paternalistic tax board and, on Bonded knee
ask the three gentlemen in whose hands the
ridiculous tax law places our destiny, for per-
mission to erect some more school buildings.
We need them as badly as we do a coli
scum. The high schools and the grade schools
both are overcrowded. Already opposition to
these school buildings is being organized, as
it always is organized when anything is pro-
posed for the education Of the youth of our
city.
Will the gentlemen who are pledging
themselves to work for the purchase Of site
out E. Washington st. way for coliseum also
pledge their support to fight the opposition to
adequate school facilities in Indianapolis?

How Many and Who

/ ~ ENSUS bureau experts find that in the
U past five years Indianapolis has grown
measurably in population. 1t is a good sign
In normal times a city that does not show
steady growth has cause for serious thought
There is apt to be something wrong with it..
But there is more to population increase
than figures. Perhaps it is just as important
to consider who the new citizens of Indianapo-
lis are as to rejoice in their numbers. Perhaps
it would be as important to know why they
came, what it is that brings them to this city
rather than to another. And then there is
useful speculation as to who among the new
corners has brought the most good to Indian
