SCORE CRITICS
OF BUDGET FOR
CITY SCHOOLS
Cuts by Tax Board Peril
Building Program, HiIkene
Says at Meeting.

Chamber of Commerce critics of
the school city budget and the State
tax board we're scored at the meet
ing of the indianapolis school board
Tuesday night.
A $1,250,000 building program for
1928 was presented to the board
by Buildings and Grounds Super
intendent Jacob Hilkene. He pointed
out that it would be impossible for
the board to approve it finally UNI
til action on the budget had been
taken by the tax board and that
the State board had power to
thwart such program, regardless
of it's necessity. He urged that the
board bring this to the attention
of a public protesting constantly for
INCREASED school room.
Suit May Be Settled
Chamber of Commerce objec-
lions to our budget have been based
entirely upon allowances made for
certain items in the budget OF last
car" Board Member Charles w.
n pointed out "Such objections,
,cted on by the tax bard, will
Ter budget making futile. Sug-
5tions on that basis are worth
less"
The board took no definite action
regarding the building program.
Both Hilkene and Board Attorney
Martin Hugo told of proposed
settlement of the suit involving
erection of a graded school at Fifty
Seventh st. and Central Ave. OBJ
jections of citizens of the vicinity
had been taken to the city zonine

STEvE'S PRISON
BONDS TIGHTEN
Habeas Corpus Plea Denied
by Supreme Court.

1--WE believe that the Hamilton
Circuit Court had jurisdiction over
the appellants person and Of the
cause and the judgment therefore
is affirmed"
This paragraph from the separate
opinion written from his bed at st.
Vincent's Hospital by Judge Clar-
ence E. Martin of the Supreme
Court, in sustaining the lower court
in the. D. C. Stephenson habeaus
corpus case Tuesday, was being
scrutinized closely today by defense
attorneys.
If it is indicative Of the opinion
in the final appeal of the murder
case, it would mean, observers say,
that all avenues of escape were
closed to the former Khan Dragon,
so far as the State is concerned.
The Tuesday decision affirmed
that of the La Porte Superior Court
in turning down the habeas corpus
plea, which would have required
Warden Walter DAILY to release Ste
phenson from Michigan City prison.
1t was based on the grounds that
Imprisonment was illegal and at
tackled the jurisdiction Of Hamilton
Circuit Court, where Stephenson
was sentenced. The Supreme Court
decision, joined in by all judges,
pointed out that a court of co-or-
dinate jurisdiction could not pass
on the question.
Attorney General Arthur l.. Gill
liam and his deputies today were
putting final touches to the answer
in the murder appeal.

Complete Review Looms

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 26.-Pos-
sibility that complete official re-
view of his recent magazine articles
criticising naval administration
may be sought by Rear Admiral
Thomas P. Magruder, commandment
of the Navy Yard here and the
Sourth Naval district, was seen to-
day following his summary detach-
ment and recall to Washington by
Secretary of the Navy Wilbur.
Magruder, who has had but fifteen
months of what is ordinarily a
three-year tour of shore duty, said
the brief telegram detaching and
ordering him to report to the Sec
rotary of the Navy had come as "a
distinct shock to him, and in
dicated he would request an in
vestigation.
Criticised Administration
Published articles of Magruder,
which we're declared unethical in
some Navy quarters, involved the
admiral in a controversy with the
Navy Department and brought
about conferences and explanations
to Secretary Wilbur.
A final statement on their pub
LEGATION was filed by Magruder with
the secretary last week.
While criticising the Administra-
ton of certain bureaus and interior
organization within the department,
MaGruder made it plain that he had
criticised no individuals and had
formulated no plan to improve the
conditions he pointed out.
Shock to Magruder
No intimation of what duty would
be Forthcoming was contained in
the Secretary's telegram. After Or
dering Magruder detached from
command here, about Nov. S, the
message merely directed him to "re-
port to the Secretary of the Navy
for duty"
81 have become very much at
tached to Philadelphia in my f1f-
teen months here" Magruder said
in a statement, II had hoped to stay
here for my full tour. I don't know
why I have been detached and shall
insist on a full investigation. The
telegram from the Secretary of the
Macy came as a distinct shock to
me. I don't understand it,"
The admiral would not comment
on reports that he might consult
an attorney today, with a view to
demanding an investigation Of the
recall.

One Fund Depleted
The city general fund is the only
one so depleted that an advance
from tax money will be necessary
to meet the next pay roll, provided
the tangle is Strengthened out in
time for Ramsay legally to pay out
money to anyone.
The city hospitals next pay roll
calls for $4,000 and the health
board general pay roll $4,000. The
health department has about $4,000
on hands.
The sanitary board has about
100000 on hand with which to meet
the $4,000 mi-monthly and $4,000
weekly pay rolls until November tax
money comes in.
The park board has about $4,000
out of which would be paid the
$500 weekly and $4,000 semi
monthly pay roll until November tax
settlement is received.
Despite these funds on hands,
however, the treasurer can prevent
city officials from touching penny.
School Attorney Waits
School Attorney Hugg said he
would listen to all sides of the con-
troversy and decide whether to join
the civil city in a suit or take in
dependent action.
Givan's~ opinion, according to es-
innate of County Auditor Harry
Dunn, will keep $6,737, 103.48, which
is the share of the taxes now being
paid belonging to the city, school
city, and the several city boards and
departments, from reaching the
city's Golfers.
Unless the courts settle the ques-
ton by Nov. 7, which is when the
present tax collection period ends,
Ramsay, as city treasurer, will hold
that amount until the question is
settled or the Duvalls resign.
