simultaneously with the publication OF

Motor Vehicle Regulations, United

legal and research department, with
the cooperation of the Albert Russel

motorists know the more important
motor laws in the States in which they

Training Is Required
Requires tenure teachers take at
least five semester hours Of teacher
training or instruction applicable to
their profession every five years.

five years can not claim tenure as
to their positions, but can be de-
NOTED to the rank of teacher. They
can, however retain positions as
tenure teachers with the years spent
as superintendent applicable to
qualification as tenure teachers.
Representative Wilfred H. JeS-
sup Dem, Centerville), explaining
the majority report, which was
adopted, said the amended bill is a
compromise, plus restrictions calcu-
lated to elevate tenure.
Township teachers now under
tenure will continue.

Representative j. Clayton Hughes
Dem, Goshen, urged substitution
OF a minority report which followed
the lines of the original Schricke
bill. He pointed out the present
tenure law has been tested in the
courts and that rewriting the meas

schools.
He was supported by Representa-

minority report as the lesser of two
evils"
Effort to substitute the minority
report lost by standing vote of
46-42, and a motion of Representa-

overwhelming voice vote.

Woodin Looms as Choice

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-A re-
port that William Hartman Woodin
was being considered for secretary
of treasury by President-E Elect Roose-
welt drew interest today to the
career and business connections OF
this little-publicized Pennsylvania,
who is among the nations industrial
giants.
Woodin is executive head of two OF
4 Americas largest corporations,
American Car and Foundry and
American Locomotive. He is di-
rector of Remington Arms. the New
York federal reserve bank, and Of
three large corporations with sugar
and railroad interests in Cuba.
Labor men assert that his best
known connection, the American
Car and Foundry Company, long has
been an open shop factory.
Woodin also is the head of several
other large corporations, a director
in many more, a collector of rare
coins, and a member of the stalwart
Republican Union League club.
He supported Governor Smith for
President in 1923, and contributed
$4,000 10 that campaign. He was
New York state fuel administrator
during the war.

control by the larger counties.
Delegates to county conventions

NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-Clara
l. Bow met a lot of counts and
dukes on her first visit to Europe,
she disclosed today, but she
can't remember offhand any of
their names.
Interviewed in her suit at the
Plaza, Miss Bow admitted that the
war debt situation seems to be
very serious.
THE French" she explained
blithely, have their ideas about
the war debts and we have ours.
So really, there's no use of our
talking about it.

we're in Paris. No, it didn't make

say-they say it fell, see?"

her cowboy husband, Rex Bell,
were immensely impressed by the
Tower of London.

time. And, my dear, the plush is

THEN they tell you a story
l. about the changing of the
guards. OF course that is quite
an old custom and it seems they
had a new guard there and when
they change the guards one guard
delivers the keys and the other
guard says, Who goes there?' And
the guard says, The kings keys
and the other guard says, What
king?' and the first guard says,
King George, and the other
guard says, Amen
so the new guard, instead of
saying amen, says, SEE you. I
thought it was a scream. But of
course it sounds better in English
accent"
Miss Bow believes that it is quite
educational to travel. It's broad
ening, she explained, especially
when you meet the right people.

DUT Stevens couldn't help very
- much.
Il found a note stuck in my
door," he said, signed by Lindfors,
and saying Kirk had been drowned
on Crooked Creek, while they were
crossing near the mine. Lindfors
said he swan ashore, and tried to
locate Kirk, but couldn't.
THE note said, I am going to
get the Indians to help me search
for the body I looked for Kinks
body, but ]. couldn't find it, and as
had planned to go outside any
way I packed up and beat it,"
Was his story true? J-43 believed
him, and so did the others. The
search had narrowed to Lindfors.
During open weather that year
J-43 and Marshal Smith, with De-
puties Kincaid and Wiseman,
hunted through the Alaskan-Wild-
erness for indoors and the solu-
ton to one of the territory'S
strangest mysteries.
1t was weeks later when a miner
came to him and told of finding a
rifle on an unused trail along the
upper reaches of Crooked Greek.
The Investigators went at once
to the trail. After two days
search through the underbrush
they came to an abandoned cabin.
The door was locked on the inside.
Shoulders to the door, the in
vestigators tracked it open. The
body of Charles Lindfors hung
there, suspended from a rafter.
The coroner listed it as suicide.
