western Texas, ~ DR.. R. A. Stud
halter of Texas archaeological col
lege here. DR.. Studhalter has re-
ported his find to the Scientific
Monthly.
The plant is known as Riella, and
has been given the English name
''ruffle plant" because of it's
peculiar structure. 1t consists of a
slender stem an inch or so in length.
with a thin transparent green wing
growing out at one side and curling
over its end.
The graceful fluctuations in this
green wing caused one American
botanist to describe it as "a ruffle
standing on end"
The plant thus far has been found
in only two states, Texas and North
Dakota. 1t grows only in sheltered
canyons, either submerged in shallow
water Or just above water level.
Since water in this western coun-
try is not always certainty in any
one place, the plant has been very
elusive. disappearing from a known
habitat and reappearing suddenly
elsewhere.

Provisions in Pay Cut Bill
'InappIiCabIe,' Rules
Ogden.

Anti-nepotism provisions of the
state salary reduction law, passed
by the special session of the legis-
lature, we're held both 'unconsti-
tutionar and "inapplicable" in two
opinions today from Attorney Gen
eral James M Ogden,
In answering an inquiry from AL
fred E. Hogston, state fire marshal,
Ogden ruled that it is permissible
for HogSton to continue to employ
Sister-in-law in his Office, even
if she lives at the Hogston home.
The salary reduction statute has
clause which reads as follows:
1T shall be unlawful for any de-
partment or institution of the state
government to employ any two or
more persons who are members of
the same family and who are dom
iciled in the same house"
Answering questions on the same
subject submitted by Superintend-
ent l.. A. Cortner of the Indiana
soldiers and sailors childrens'
home, Ogden held this section "un-
constitutional" and also held that
the salary reduction law specifically
exemptS state institutions.
Before the act was signed by
Governor Harry G. Leslie, Ogden
pointed out that nothing in the title
of the law provides for the anti
nepotism section, and, therefore,
that section is worthless.
Leslie, upon signing it, said:
1T might have a good effect"
Senator William Hoadley (Rep.,
Bloomington, slipped this section
into the law through a joint COM
mittee report, after failing to get
it passed in the regular way by the
senate.

The conference appears more

The acceptance of France was

The Paris government previously
had been reluctant to agree, fear-

concession to Germany.
Germany has, demanded that the

The date and place of the con-

The movement is in no sense a
charitable one, as Ritter points out.
The sole purpose is to give an i'm
petus to a movement by which
neighbors can come together for
entertainment, cultivation of talent,
and companionship.
Tentative cooperation has been
pledged the group by the school and
park boards, which will meet next
week to decide what part they can
play in the drive. Under the plan
tentatively drafted by Ritter.
schools and vacant storerooms could
be utilized so that the centers can
be conducted at a minimum of ex-
pense for maintenance.
MUSIC, athletics, games, dra-
1V1 MATES, dancing. and motion
pictures would make up the major
part of the programs.
The function of Ritter and his
associates is to be confined to as
sistance of any community which
desires to organize for the purposes
of social contact There will be no
effort to force the centers upon any
part of the city which shows no in
clination or desire to establish
them.
Each center, if the plan works
out, will be under direction of its
own patrons.
Ritter will offer his services in
establishment of centers and after
ward will furnish talent for enter
tainments when desired.
The basic idea is that the centers
are to be self directing, and that
through them there will be oppor-
tunity for local talent to express
itself.
"WTE hope that the movement
w will be permanent" says
Ritter THE time seems oppor-
tune to start these community CEN
tiers, which should result in more
neighborliness, as many now find
themselves with enforced leisure
time. AS a people. We have not dis
covered the answer to idle hours.
entertainment, amusement, oc-
cupation for leisure time are as nee
essary to life as food or shelter. Our
plan merely is to suggest a way that
these can be had on a cooperative
basis without cost"
An experimental clubroom will be
opened soon at Udell and Clifton
streets, Ritter said, and the group
expects to have at least six to eight
centers opened by the last of
October.
