CO[0RED SCHOOL.
PROPOSAL SCORED
Gathering Protests Business
High Conversion and
Budget Reductions.

The proposal to convert Business High
School into colored elementary school
and the disprotortionate reductions in
the 1888 budget for colored schools and
grounds were assailed at a meeting Of
more than 100 delegates of civil and
fraternal organizations, churches and
parent teacher associations last night in
the Garnet-Patterson Junior High
School
The budget cut for colored education
II facilities was protested on the ground
that the 1894, 400 item for this purpose
is only 1876 per cent of the entire bud
get, whereas the colored school chill
dren represent 1892 per cent Of the
school population. The white enroll
ment, 65.08 per cent, is given 81 1865, 900,
or 80.4 per cent Of the entire appropria-
ton.
The objections to Business High as a
colored graded school are based on the
contention that the building is wholly
unfit for school purposes, because it is
not flreproof, has no fire escape, Is en-
vironed with a dangerous boulevard on

Best Remedy for
Cough Is Easily
Mixed at Home
Saves 50. So Easyl No Cooking!

You'll never know how quickly a
stubborn cough can be conquered, un-
til you try this famous recipe. 1t is
used in more homes than any other
cough remedy, because it gives more
prompt, positive relief. It's no trouble
at all to mix and costs but trihe.
Into pint bottle, pour 215 ounces
of Pinex; then add granulated sugar
syrup to make a full pint. Syrup is
easily made with cups of sugar and
one cup of water, stirred a few mo-
ments until dissolved. No cooking
needed. This saves two-thirds of the
money usually spent for cough medi-
cine, and gives you a purer, better
remedy. 1t never spoils, and tastes fine.
Instantly you feel its penetrating ef-
feet. 1t loosens the germ-laden phlegm,
clears the air passages, and soothes
and heals the inflamed membranes This
three-fold action explains why it brings
such quick relief in severe coughs.
Pinex is a highly concentrated COM
pound of Norway Pine, used for gem
erations for it's healing effect on throat
membranes. It is guaranteed to give
prompt relief or money refunded.

NEW CONGRESS
SEEN AS z To |
FOR REPEAL

The drive for repeal of the Eigh-
teenth Amendment gained momen-
tum in the Capital today after a
wet poll revealed $50 out of GOT
congressional candidates favored
immediate submission of the issue
to the States.
The poll, conducted by the
Women's Organization for Ma
tional Prohibition Reform, indi-
Gated the new Congress, to be
elected next month. would be
overwhelmingly in favor of re-
peal.
It's poll showed II to l repeal
sentiment among candidates for
House and Senate. The poll,
while not conclusive, included
more than half of all candidates
in November's congressional
campaigns.
Glass Amendment Up
Predictions already have been
voiced by Republican and Demo
cratic leaders that the present
NUIlSESSS Will AA1ONA1y GAAC WIZ
stead act and legalize beer at
the December session.
1t may go further and propose
repeal next winter by approving
the pending Glass resolution,
which would submit the Eight
eenth Amendment to another
vote of the States.
Out of the $50 candidates
favoring repeal, 474 were for
outright repeal-which would re-
store to the States absolute con-
troll of the liquor traffic.
SO States Required
There was another really Signifi-
cant aspect to the poll. For the
first time since prohibition was
written into the Constitution, a
majority of the congressional can
didates responding to a poll were
recorded as favoring repeal in 36
different States.
The fact was significant be-
cause repeal of prohibition would
have to be ratified by SO States.
