are rarin' to have the gas tax re-
duced.
Of course / can't prove it, but
I'm willin' to bet that if the legis-
.lature is dumb enough to reduce
the gas tax during the coming
session it won't help anybody but
the guys that are holdin' stock in
some oil company. You'll go right
on payifi' just as much for your
gas, and you'll have to hunt a long
while to find any other form of

Now the ALLEGATION of the gas

Pupils to Choose Subjects
in 'Tryout Plan of
Education.

Demon "drudgery" will be out

a JOY to city high school pupils, if
present plans Of school Officials cul-
inmate.
For, next year, teachers will not
force pupils to tasks they resent as
in the old-type school, and the
proverbial pupil complaint, i don't
like school," may disappear.
This news of what school officials
are doing toward changing courses
came today from Milo H. Stuart, as
sistant schools superintendent in
charge of secondary education.
The "tryout system" by which
pupils may do their own subject
choosing, will be in the indianapolis
plan" of junior high schools which
will be in full force with opening of
the 1933-34 term.
Children will be encouraged to
work for self-chosen goals-eVen to
basing the high school program up
on the pupils choice.
1t is planned to guide the child
into courses to which he is adapt
ed, drawing out his abilities in try
out" courses of the ninth grade.
Pupils will be encouraged to es-
tabish their immediate or ultimate
life goals in music, sciences, ply
steal training, literature and other
subjects.

XXTHEN placed in volume, a
w bookplate is a dignif1ed and
aristocratic indication of ownership
and emphasizes the owners love for
books. In addition to this insignia
Of pride in possession, bookplates
may serve as a means of diversified
and educational collecting. Their de-
signs represent so much individual
and excellent work by eminent art
lists that from an artistic viewpoint
alone they are worthy of attention.
They also harmonic with an
autograph collection, as many are
signed, and the early ones being
armorial, they appeal to student
Of heraldry. For an expert on
books to interest himself in the
hobby seems quite logical. Louis j.
Bailey, state librarian of Indiana,
has an extensive collection, ranging
from a facsimile of the oldest one
known to the modernistic; from the
eXquisitely delicate engravings by
Sidney L. Smith to simple limo
leum block print made by his
daughter in Technical high school.
Notice of ownership was written
in the first manuscript books, but
designed book plates appeared after
Johannes Gutenberg printed his
famous Bible in 1445. Naturally,
the first were found in Germany.
The library Of the Carthusian mon
aStery produced the original plate,
a crudely colored wood block print
representing an angel holding a
shield, on which is displayed pc
culiar looking OK.
i knights of the Round Table tell
of the Importance of heraldic de-
vices in the days when few persons
could read or write. At that time
the great families were distinguished
by emblems with which the equip
ment of the houses and armies we're
emblazoned. The early bookplates,
therefore, were armorial in design,
using the heraldic device of the
family to which they belonged.
Mr.. Pepys in his diary, 1868,
speaks of going to the Plate max
ers' ana "contriving a little plate"
for his books. To posterity he left
his portrait as well as his lineage

VIENNA, March 30.-The government
announced today that the foreign cred
1tors agreement with the Austrian Gov
ernment covering the obligations of the
Creditanstalt signed January 10 was
impossible of fulfillment.
This condition arose, communiuue
said, lin view of changes in budgetary
and economic conditions since the last
negotiations with foreign creditors"
A downward revision of the govern
ment's obligations must be asked, it was
added
Under the January 10 agreement of
the Austrian Government concerning
the Creditanstalt, foreign assets of the
bank, which closed in 1881. were to be
pooled in holding company in which
the creditors were to get preferred
stock. The government guaranteed the
debts and deposits of the institution at
the time of the crash.
AT the time of the signing of the
agreement, satisfaction by Parliament
and signing by majority of the foreign
creditors remained to be carried out.

SUIT is DISMISSED
Federal Court Action Permits Gus.

of Importations.

NEW YORK, March 30.-Federal
Judge Alfred Coke yesterday granted a
motion for dismissal of the suit for an
injunction brought by Krutz & Co.,
match importers, against the collector
of customs and appraiser of merchan-
disc at this port.
The plaintiff sued to restrain the de-
PENDANTS from enforcing findings made
by the Secretary of the Treasury as to
match importations amounting to $122,-
400 In value
The Secretary. acting under the anti
dumping act of 1921, ruled that the
matches, imported from Austria and
Sweden. were to be sold here at less
than their actual value and at less than
what the same grade Of matches are
sold for abroad Customs officials were
ordered to collect special dumping
duty to protect American manufactur-
ers. The Secretary of the Treasury had
acted within the authority conferred
upon him.
