SHORT TERM AT
WARREN SCHOOL
DRAWS PROTEST
Economy Step Will Lower
Standards, Civic Group
Asserts.

Protest against lowering Stndards
of Warren township high school by
shortening the school year from
nine to eight months, as a tax
economy move, was made today by
the Warren Township Civic Associa-
ton.
James H. Foster, association sec
rotary, mailed letters to Charles M.
Walker, township trustee, and mem
bers of his advisory board, setting
forth the associations censor of any
lessening of the school term.
The secretary was instructed to
do this at protest meeting held
at the Henninger Methodist Epis-
copal church Friday night. Vincent
Manitoba attorney, spoke.
$4,000 Saving Sought
Trustee Walker and his advisory
board decided a week ago to save
slightly more than $1,000 this year
by holding school ony eight months.
The ni1e-months' term has been
factor in raising standards of the
Warren school to among the high
est of rural schools in the state.
Shortening of the term was one
method adopted 10 rid the township
of school fund deficit totaling
$4,000.
This deficit, it is said, was caused
by expenditures of ex-Trustee Will
liam H. Cooper, which the state
board of accounts recently charged
were excessive and partly spent IL
legally"
Suit Asks Repayment
Citizens have filed two suits in
Marion courts to force Cooper and
his advisory board to refund nearly
$4,000 of this amount to the town
ship. Taxpayers charge $516 of
this was Illegally paid to an I'M
licensed school teacher.
The state board of accounts re-
vealed Cooper had paid more than
$4,000 in two years for plumbing
work on the practically new high
school building.
After Manifold had deviewed the
taxation problems of local taxing
units, members of the association
agreed it was foolish for Warren to
limit its school term, sacrificing
welfare of the children, for mere
saving of $4,000"

POOL AS SKATING RINK
DEFENDED BY DELANO
ALL Winter Project Declared Prac-
ticable in Face of Criticism
in Statement.

Frederic A. Delano chairman of the
National Park and Planning Commits
sion, denied today it would be imprac-
ticable to utilize the rejecting pool of
the Lincoln Memorial as an all-Winter
skating rink by artificial freezing of
the water there.
A statement published yesterday was
to the effect that. since the pool rests
on marsh land. the expansion of the
ice resulting from artificial freezing
would probably thrust the granite
coping away from its moorings. 1t is
fastened to piles driven into the marsh.
AS an engineer who has had great
deal of experience with construction
work" Mr.. Delano said, "the objections
raised In this article do not appear in
the slightest degree insurmountable. It
Is to be admitted that on account of
the character of the bottom and be-
cause the pool Is unnecessarily deep 1t
will be necessary to put new rein
forced concrete bottom in the pool
which would provide for Summer
depth Of not exceeding two feet and
a Winter depth of not more than
one foot.
The form of the bottom should be
so designed as to do away with any
danger from the thrust of the ice to
which the article calls attention. Fur
thermore, aprons or Side-boards of the
cheapest character can easily be used
TO take up this thrust
II do not wish to minimize the ex-
pense of the proper and adequate treat
ment OF the rejecting basin so that 1t
will make good skating pond, but
any one who says that the scheme is
impractical on account of the danger
Of the granite walls does not know
what he is talking about"

WAGE SCALE BILL
PASSES IN SENATE
Requires Payment on Federal
Construction of Rates in
Each Community.

The Senate today unanimously passed
the Davis bill requiring contractors on
public buildings in Washington and
elsewhere to pay laborerS and mechanics
the prevailing wage scale for similar
work in the community. The bill still
requires action by the House.
One of the purposes of the bill is to
discourage contractors from bringing
workmen from other places to cities
where public buildings are being erected
at lower wage rates than those prevail
ing where the building is going on.
The bill was favorable reported from
theCommittee on Manufactures, follow
ing a hearing yesterday, at which it
was 1ndosed by Government officials
and heads of labor organizations.
In the event of a dispute over what
is the prevailing wage rate in any COM
munity, the question would be referred
to the Secretary of Labor, whose con-
clusion would be final. The bill pro-
vides that every contract in excess of
$4,000 for repairs or new construction
on public buildings shall contain the
provision for the payment of the pre-
vailing wage scale in that locality
Passage of the bill was urged by Sen
ators CouzenS, Republican, Michigan,
and La Toilette, Republican, Wisconsin
Senators Jones, Republican. Wash
ington. and Hatfield, Republican, West
Virginia, also spoke briefly in favor Of It,
