SCHOOL STRIKE ENTERS
ON THIRD DAY AT GARY
Students Making Color Protest Now
Exceed 800.

GARY, Ind, Sept. 28.-For the
third consecutive day, more than 300
white students at Emerson High
School here walked out on strike to-
day in protest against admission of
twenty-four Negro students. The
third walk-out occurred following
mass meeting this morning at which
the strikers reiterated their demand
that the Negroes be transferred to
other schools and also demanded
that all absences because of the
strike be stricken from the records.
School officials, meanwhile, stood
by their position that the Negro
students could not be transferred
because of congested conditions in
the city's schools. While they took
no steps to force return of the
strikers, they made it clear that
work missed through absence caused
by the strike would have to be
made up.
AS the strikers appeared to be
backed by their parents in their de-
mand for an "all-white" school, the
situation seemed hopelessly dead
locked.

department will be retained by the
board of safety Frederick w. Con-
nell, president, said today.
Although Mayor DuvaE has not
named any one to fill the two va
cancies on tie police civil service
board, he confirmed Connell's state
ment.
The safety board, which had
considered appointment of seven
firemen. subject to civil service
rules, on recommendation of Fire
Chief Jesse Hutsell, announced the
list would be taken from the civil
service eligibility list after visiting
Duvall.
Glenn B. Ralston and Andrew j.
Allen, first civil service commits
sioners, explained the rules of the
commission to the new board and
announced they would stick to their
posts" and cooperate with the board.
Duvall said police civil service
regulations, adopted by the mayors
cabinet Sept. 16, 1926, probably will
be modified at the next cabinet
meeting. Duvall said it is probable
the civil service examinations will
be retained for new officers. but the
reduction and promotion of officers
will be left to Police Chief Claude M.
Worley and the board Of safety.

Lower rates from Boston on water

Association Of Boston, met with the
opposition of Philadelphia, Baltimore
and Norfolk at a hearing before the

day.
Wilbur, Laroe, representing the New
York port authorities, asked that IL
any change is made In the Boston
rate, that the same be made effective
from New York.
Joseph W. Powell, chairman OF the
Maritime Association of the Boston
Chamber of Commerce, declared that
since the Interstate Commerce Com.
mission made its rail rates on a basis
of distance and cost, water rates
should have the same basis. He said
that 1t cost $500 additional and re.

S,000-ton boat into Philadelphia or
Baltimore than into Boston.
Edgar j. Rach. general counsel for

ports were not asking for any legal
rights, but were entering a petition
which, If granted, would work for
national development of a merchant
marine. Andrew j. Peters, former
mayor OF Boston and president'of the
Boston Chamber of Commerce, pointed
out that under present rates the
major portion Of New England tex.
tiles were being shipped through New
York when the logical port was Bos.
ton.
r. f. Lee Marshall of the Baltimore

tition, declaring that the Shipping
Board should not be hurried into any
rate changes and that 1t was "com-
mercial anemia" and not unfair rates
that was causing the decline of Bos.
ton shipping.
