Absence OF Commissioner
Hats Venire Drawing,

Further delay in filling the four
vacancies in the new Marion
County grand jury and in getting a
special venire of fifty jurymen for

ATTACKS STATE
TAX BOARD FOR
SCHOOL DELAY
City Group Protests Lack
of Action on Bonds for
Tech High.

Denunciation of the State board
Of tax commissioners may be shouted
from "the stump" and before civic.
clubs by school board members in
an effort to bring public pressure to
work on "dilatory tactics" of the
tax board, the school COMMISSIONS
said heatedly at their special me-.
ing late Monday
Commissioner Charles w. Kern
led the latest verbal assault on the
tax body, protesting its delay in ap-
proving or rejecting the school
boards request for a S215,O0O bond
issue for construction of Technical
High School auditorium.
THE bids have been before them
twenty-three days" Kern said, "and
there is no justification for their
delay. They don't have the men
tally of a bunch of school boys"
ProWn said that he didn't care to
comment on this latest outbursti
that the tax board would continue
to function as it has in the past
and refuse to be deferred.
3O-Day Period Near End
Theodore Vonnegut, school board
president, said, Their delay is in
line with their deplorable action on
the 100000 bond issue before them.
We hope they get a sense of their
increasing unpopularity."
Kern pointed out that unless the
Technical auditorium bids and bond
issue are approved within the next
week, they will be rejected auto
matically as having gone over the
thirty day period.
There was a chorus of assent
when he predicted it would be nee
essary to go before civic clubs and
meetings of taxpayers to give the
people. "the truth" about the State
tax board.
Charge Attack ON City
"The tax board" Kern said, has
raised the bugaboo of G. c. Shipp
in an attempt to mislead the pub
lie and justify their attitude in
rendering no decision There is not
5 cents worth of Ships materials
going into the new auditorium"
They're just doing whar they
can to knock Indianapolis and re-
tard its progress" was Vonnegut's
parting shot.
