1t Is recalled that at the time
Mr.. Duke went to New York to

his methods Of living along the
most modest lines in order to draw
as little as possible upon the finan.

time when 1t was facing a crisis.
And 1t may be said to the further
honor Of James Buchanan Duke
that in his later years he exempli.

To Publish Booklet on Mabcr ain

To Publish Booklet on Mahcr Bill
Dr. Augustus .. Thomas, State
commissioner of education, appeared
before the governor and council on
Thursday morning asking for au-
thority to prepare and publish TO-
oVO copies of bulletin dealing with
the so-called Maher bill, at a cost
OF Slo4. He stated that there is
considerapte demand for information
on this matter. An order authoriz-
ing the issuance of this bulletin was
passed.
The Maher bill is a resolve passed
by the last legislature submitting to
the voters of Maine at the next State
election, in September, 1926, a pro-
posed constitutional amendment pro-
hibiting the use of public funds for
other than public institutions and
purposes.
The booklet which DR.. Thomas
VIII issue is to contain the full text
OF the amendment, and the present
law governing state aid for educa :
tional institutions together with the
commissioner views as to what the
amendment, If adopted. would or
would not do to present educational
arrangements in the state.
In discussing the order authoriz-
ing this booklet. the council made
IL very clear it must set forth that
Whatever Interpretation said booklet
contains, could not be accepted as
Official or final. as in the opinion of
the councils the final and official in
depreciation would have 10 be made
by the supreme court; in other words
whatever conclusions he should set
iorth. in his booklet, would be mere
~ his own personal opinions and not
at all binding.
Dr. THOMAS, in explaining the
reason for this order to the council
said, that he was receiving many re-
quests for information of this nature
and felt that such booklet would
help out greatly. He expected the
demand for information would in
crease rather than decrease during
the next year.
Attorneys Fees in Injury Cases
1t is not the policy of the present
administration to throw wide open
the treasury doors. and let towns or
others dip in and help themselves.
This was made clear when the Ex-
ecutive Council declined to receive
and consider a bill for $500 for pro-
fessional service rendered the town
VI SAcIIyuciu Dy GTdy anu sawyer
of Millbridge. These lawyers defend
ed Cherryfield in four personal in
jury cases growing out of accidents
on the State highway in Cherryfield.
No verdict was rendered in the cas-
es. non-suit being ordered by the
presiding justice.
Under the State law in such a
case. if verdict is awarded against
town, the State pays the amount
of the damages to the extent of $4,-
900. The law makes no provision for
the payment of attorney fees, wheth-
err the case Is won or lost.
The understanding Is that Gray
and Sawyer were told by the attor-
ney generals department. in 1924, to
handle the cases. which it did. How
ever, there is no record Of a council
order for the work. AS a result, the
present executive council took the
position that the only way in which
Gray and Sawyer could-be recon-
pensed would be by an act of the
Legislature. :.
