HOOVER Characterizes
Farm Relief as Socialism

In New York, October q, Hoover
said: Because the country is faced
with difficulty and doubt over certain
national problems - that is, prohibi-
ton, farm relief and electrical power
our opponents propose that we must
thrust government long way into the
businesses that give rise to these prob
lens. In effect, they abandon the
tenets of their own party and turn to
state socialism as solution for the
difficulties presented by all three"

PROBE ORDERED
AT u. S. PRISON
Congressman Will Sift At
Ianta Conditions.
B,y Times Special

Ry Times Special
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-Charges
that Atlanta Federal prison guards
are smuggling in drugs to prisoners;
that wealthy prisoners are receiving
special privileges, and that laxity
prevails in paroles will be probed
this week by a special congressional
committee headed by Representa-
tive John G. Cooper Of Ohio.
1t will be the first time in forty
years that congress has paid special
attention to prison conditions and
the first time real investigation
has been conducted at Atlanta since
its opening in 1902.
The probe will get under way
Tuesday. Other members of the
committee, Representative Taber
and Boylan, New York; Kopp, Iowa
and Bell, Georgia, are expected to
join Cooper at the prison.
Later the committee will make a
similar investigation at Leaven-
worth prison. Conditions at the fed
eral industrial reformatory at Chilli
cothe, O., and at the women's prison
at Anderson, w. Va, were studied in
August.
Many of the evils alleged to exist
at Atlanta, LeavenWorth and Nc
Neil's Island are attributed to over
crowding. During hearings last
spring on the Porter bill providing
for two narcotic prisons, A. II. Con-
>ner, superintendent of prisons, tes-
titled there is an excess over cell
capacity of almost 1000 prisoners.

That Katherine Mayo told only

The Mayo book, he asserted, has

POWER OF TAX
BOARD TESTED
IN SCHOOL SUIT
City Education Heads in
Court at Charlottesville;
Heating Caused Case.

Trial of the indianapolis school
boards suit to determine powers of
the state tax board and constitu-
tionality of the act giving the tax
board Jurisdiction over the school
board was started today before
Judge Jere West in Montgomery
circuit court at Charlottesville.
Decision favorable to the school
board, it is held, would remove not
only the indianapolis school board
but all city school boards in the
state from the tax boards juris-
diction.
A decision favorable to either
party to the suit is expected to be
appealed to the state supreme court.
To Move Dismissal
At the opening of the trial the
tax board was expected to move dis
missal of the suit on the charge
that the 100000 bond issue, on
which the case originally was
predicated, had been granted in
part by the state board.
School board attorneys were pre-
pared to counter with explanation
that the bond issue denial was
merely Incidental, an example OF
the state boards attitude, and that
the real issue was constitutionality
of "intermeddling" in school affairs
by the tax board.
The suit was fled last spring in
Marion county superior court, Room
2. and was venuel lated to Craw-
louisville.
The case is an outgrowth OF hear
ing by the tax board last spring
when the tax board issued an ulti-
alum that no more school conStruc-
ton in indianapolis would be au-
thorized unless specifications called
for more than one heating and ven
tilating system. open, honest and
competitive" bidding was demanded.
1t was charged school building
specifications were so written that
no such system but that Of G. c.
Shipp could qualify.
Permit Borrowing of Money
Last March the tax board in
structed the school board to obtain
plans and specifications and bids on
new building and three additions,
for which the 100000 bond issue
was asked, and present these to the
state board before the bond issue
would be allowed.
School officials contended they
had no appropriation to employ
architects and engineers for plans
and specifications, and that to do Sc
under such circumstances would be
in direct violation Of the law.
Filing of the present suit, a short
time later, was followed by tax
board order permitting the school
board to borrow money for plans
and specifications. Later the state
board authorized S564,0o0 bond issue
for the buildings, contracts foI
which have now been awarded.
Schools to be financed by the bond
issue are new School so and ad-
ditions to Schools 43, 81 and 66.
