VETO BILL TO
RAISE SALARIES
OF OFFICIALS
Increase for La Porte De-
MED; Senate Passes Act
to Abolish Fees.

Governor Harry G. Leslie un-
furled the economy standard in the
senate today by returning a bill
providing for salary raises for La
Porte officials with his veto.
A short time later thirty-two
senators enrolled under the same
banner by passing the Holmes bill
abolishing the fee system in Lake
county which will turn many thou
sands of dollars into the treasury.
This money now goes into politi-
clans pockets and for support of the
G. o. + organization.
In returning the vetoed salary bill
John j. Brown, Governors Secre-
tary, read a message from Leslie
in which he pointed out that while
the general average of city tax
rates of 2,501 on each 500 worth of
taxable property it is already $3.76
at La Porte. Salary raises are out
of order at this time, he pointed out.
Sponsors Bill
The vetoed bill had been intro
duced by Senator Earl Rowley, La
Porte.
Senator G. Oliver Holmes, Gary,
author of the fee abolition bill,
pointed out that many good men
could be secured as candidates with
Lake county offices paying the same
salary as those in Marion county.
Such is the provision of the bill.
He cited net sumes now going
to the various officials annually as
follows:
Tells Salaries of Officers
County clerk, $25 5000, plus fees
from 10000 licenses; recorder, $24,-
228; treasurer, $26,314, plus delin-
quent demands of more than SIS 900:
sheriff, $10,824, plus $4,000 trans
portation and $4,000 for feeding
prisoners. The prosecutors office
he placed at the low estimate of
$4,000 net.
The Gray bill providing for tax
board appeals to local courts failed
of a constitutional majority.

THE EVENING STORY

OF humanity to play opposite the pretty
widows yellow hound. Heavens! My
peaceful home will be turned into a
nursery; instead of serving filet mignon
Anne will brandish a baby bottle or,
worse still, Anne will leave us.
My soft-hearted sister has prob
ably achieved as embryo thief; she will
have to give up her work to attend the
voractous stranger. I've a notion to
be sure of sleep there. III do it.
But. as he withdrew his key, the door
opened violently and the pretty spin
ster sister hurled herself out, her arms
materially crooked about a snowy
bundle.
The worst" groaned the bachelor
brother.
"Oh, look, Horace" squealed the
Spinster sister; isn't he perfectly dar-
ling? The sweetest I've ever seen. Anne
is simply crazy about him; I'm going
Think the janitor will report uS?"
Yes" Horace grasped wildly at the
straw Of hope, land we'll be put out. y
The very white fingers of the spinster
sister snapped in a most regrettable
fashion. Let him report then, l
wouldn't give up my darling little Pom
Pom for any one?"
The bachelor brother put up his
hands to steady his rocking head
"Pom-Pom?" he queried feebly.
Eyes. I bought him for SIS down
town today and he's a pedigreed St
Bernard"
Just so, he looks exactly like one, y
agreed the other, incredulous eyes upon
the fleecy white coat of the tiny mon
grel. And what about the homeless
waifs?"
"Oh, WE'LL" said the pretty spinster
comfortably, 81 just happened to see
Pom-Pom and he took such fancy to
me. Even the man himself said So"

D. c. HIGH WAVES
EDISON CONTEST
Eastern Lacks Scientific
"Genius" for Entrant,
Hart Says.

Eastern High School will not be rep
resented in the race for the Edison
scholarship according to Charles Hart,
Its principal, who said yesterday
that the outstanding students of his
school this year are proficient in letters
rather than in the sciences and the
mechanical arts.
With no outstanding scientist or me-
chanical geniuSeS among his fourth
year students, Mr.. Hart is of the opin-
Ion it would be futile to nominate a
candidate in the local competition for
the right to represent the District of
Columbia in the Nation wide scholar
ship race only to have him eliminated
at the outset when compared with other
students whose qualifications fit them
specifically for career of scientific en-
deavor.
Mr.. Hart does not feel that the quail
f1oations set up by the local committee
are too high; on the contrary, he be-
heves they are excellent and what they
ought to be-"
Hopes for Another Opportunity.
Last year Mr. Hart said there were
several fourth-year students whose
scholarly bent lay in the field of
science, and he has in mind three of
his junior class students who would
make excellent candidates in such a
competition next year. For the pres
ent, however. all his outstanding stu
dents are adept in English, literature,
history and other subjects comprising
the field of letters.
The only nominee placed before the
committee to date is. Charles Webster
Hopkins. 17-year-old student of the
Y. NJ. c. AS Woodward School for
Boys. His candidacy was announced
last week. shortly after the committee,
under the Craftsmanship of Harry o.
Hine, secretary of the Board of Educa-
ton, issued invitations to the secondary
schools of the city.
Qualifications Outlined.
The qualifications set up by the COM
mittee specify that the candidates be
unusually proficient in science or me-
chanics; that they have an intelligence
quotient of 100. and that they have
sufficient secondary school credits to
admit them to a recognized technical
school Of college grade All nominal
tons must be in before Friday.
