WASHINGTON, Sept. i3.-Has a
city the right +, sell gasoline and
oil at cost in competition with pri-
vate companies?
The Standard Oil Company Of
Nebraska contends that cities are
barred from such activity by the
Federal constitution. and will ask
the United States Supreme Court to
rule that way.
The plea arises from a dispute be-
tween the company and the city of
Lincoln, Neb.
In 1924 Lincoln voters authorized
municipal operation Of gasoline and
Oil stations. The standard Oil Com
pany claimed that the business is
not public utility warranting Gov

and oil are not necessities, and that,

ANDERSON, Ind, Sept. 13.-The
jazz age has changed school teach
er's problems, w. A. Denny, Ander-
SON school superintendent, declared
in addressing city teachers at an in
stitute session.
The superintendent declared 1.-THE
Jazz age has brought into being new
social and moral problems which
must be confronted and solved. to
some degree at least, by the teach
ers Of the modern youth"
Distractions from school work af-
forded by conditions of modern life
constitute the greatest difficulty for
the teacher today, Denny declared.
"These conditions interfere with
ideal conditions of study" the super
intendent said. 1.-THE jazz age has
brought with it a longing for excite
ment and entertainment which In
terfere with the ideal conditions for
contemplative study. The spirit OF
materialism that is so widespread is
largely the result of the hurry OF
civilization and competitive COM
merce. That is one reasons we are
devoting more time to nature study
this year because In this way we
may direct the attention Of the
young people to the wonders Of God
and the world"

abroad so widely.
1t is a city without taxes-a city

Of financial independence.
Municipal Ownership
The city believes in municipal
ownership of public utilities. All
funds for current expenses come
from the earnings Of its utilities. In
addition, these earnings steadily are
piling up surplus in the city treas
ury.
This surplus, under present plans,
will be invested In well-paying Sc
curities, the income from which will
still further reduce the cost of the
city government.
All city affairs are conducted on
the plan Of well-managed private
corporation. There are no political
"jobs" in the city government; en-
plcyment is governed absolutely by
the same standard Of capability
and efficiency that apply in any
business house.
Each public utility is obliged to
pay its own way and show a respect
able profit. This is done so capably
that public utility rates to consum-
ers here are lower than in many
other cities Of the same size.
In single year the city earned
enough money from its utilities to
pay $4,000 in improvements, all of
its matey operating expenses and all
managerial salaries. The city gets
