WORKS BOARD
ATTEMPTS TO
AVERT STRIKE
Sanitary Plant Budget May
Be Crippled as Result
Of labor Trouble.

Members Of the Works Board to-
day were confronted with the dual
problem Of averting strike with
out Gripping the budgeted funds Of
the sanitary department.
c. K. Calvert, city sanitary super
intendent, told the board members
that threat Of strike had placed
the board in a position where it
would be compelled to lay off city
employees in the district if union
Gen are hired and union wages
paid for the installation OF 30 new
digestors in the garbage reduction
plant.
On the other hand Nj Calvert
pointed Gus that unless only union
men are employed a strike will be
called.
He declared that the January pay
roll Of the sanitary department
could not be met if the union scale
for pipeiJJers and the demands Of
the Marion County Building Trades
council were acC5ded to-.
Board Can't Decide
Works Board members say they
can not decide whether the strike
or the financial tangle which would
be caused by a reduced operating
budget would result in greater diff
culties for the department.
They explain that if union work
ers, employed by private contractors,
walk out on the 100000 Federal
expansion project at the disposal
plant that the garbage reduction
system will not be in operation be-
fore next spring.
Henry B. steeg, City Engineer,
estimates that every month that the
garbage reduction plant is not work.
ing the city loses $4,000 in revenue.
He told board members that if
new units aret installed without
labor trouble the reduction plant
should be functioning by the middle
Of next month.

Cost Kept Down

In order to save money, regular
plant maintenance men, employed
by the city, have been installing the
new digestors as fast as they arrive
from Chattanooga, Tenn. Union
leaders, led by Charles Lutz, state
representative, want this work done
by outside union men.
Mr.. Calvert admitted that Indian
apolis has the lowest labor cost in
the sanitary plants of any of the
major cities in the United States.
IF we hadn't been able to keep
this cost down" he said, "the tax
payers would find an added burden
placed upon them"

GOOD FELLOWS
ARE NEEDED
FOR XMAS
Pathetic Pleas Call to
Help Children for
Holiday
BY THE GOOD FELLOW
EDITOR

Letters and requests from needy
families are piled high on the
Good Fellow Editors desk, all
telling a story of meager wages,
or none at all; of hungry chill
dren, of their need for clothing,
food and a bit of Christmas joy.
1t is our hope that every one
of these unfortunate families will
be remembered by someone this
Christmas, that the children will
not be forgotten by Santa Claus
because they are poor boys and
girls"
Good Fellows Needed
But Good Fellows are needed
to answer these pathetic pleas.
If you join The Washington
Times annual Christmas Good
Fellow campaign, you will make
your goal a happy Christmas for
some family in the District. 1t
isn't hard to bring a bit Of hol
day cheer to a person or a
home that would otherwise be
overlooked.
Come forward, Good Fellows
and help to gladden. the hearts OF
unhappy little children on Christ
mas morning. Help to fill their
undernouriShed little bodies with
plenty of food on at least this one
holiday. Your own Christmas III
mean so much more to you.
The Good Fellow Editor will pro
vide the names of as many per
sons or families, adults or chill
dren, as the Good Fellow wishes
If you wish to help, please notify
the Good Fellow Editor as early
as possible. You can do so by
mail, telephone, or in person, at
The Times Building, between the
hours of 10 a. m. and 7 p. m.
Here's Typical Letter
Here is a typical letter from
mother who breads facing a cheer
less Christmas for her little ones:
Gould some Good Fellow help
out my two little boys. and II
years of age, whose father has
been out of work for some time?
We will be ever so grateful for
them at Christmas. The young
est boy talks all the time about
Santa Claus, and 1 haven't the
heart to see him Disappointed
1t would be quite easy for some
one to play Santa Claus to these
youngsters.
Another mother, with nine chill
dren. came to visit the Good Eel
low Editor in person to make her
plea. All she wants is a basket tol
Christmas so that the family, at
least, can have good dinner
And she asked for simple toy
for her younger children, hoping
in that way that the Christmas
spirit for them could be preserved
Has Five Girls
This mother has five girls, aged
IS, 13, 9, 6. and 5. Her boys are
aged 7, II, and 2. The husband Is
in bad health, just out of the hos
pital, and is able to work but a
little.
Perhaps several Good Fellows
could pool their funds to make
Christmas a happy occasion fol
this large family. They are gen
uinely in need of help of any
kind, and this particular family
is not receiving help from any
other organization or the Relief.

SCHOOL HEAD
DISCUSSES
NEW PLANS

Purpose and plan behind present
education were discussed by Guy
Weakley superintendent of the Ell
Centre elementary school system,
before the Ell Centre Kiwanis club
Friday at the Barbara Worth hotel.
1--WE are more concerned today"
said the speaker, with the effect
of teaching on the child than we
are with the subject matter con-
Sumed. In other words, we feel
that the science of study is more
important than the thing studied.
ut is the further purpose of edu-
cation to prepare the child for bet
ter citizenship. Education has be-
come a scientific procedure and it
is through the application of scien-
tific principles that the best results
are obtained.
Weakley's talk was preceded by
a short address on the city's phys
ical school system by Roy H. Wom-
ack, a member of the elementary
school board and chairman of the
day.

A full slate of Townsend candi-
dates" for congress and the presi-
dency will be entered next year to
boost the plan to pay pensions to
all persons 60 years old or older,
he said, emphasizing that he would
not be the party's presidential
nominee.
His announcement came as a sur
prise to others in the group. r. B.
Clements, co-founder of the various
Townsend clubs, said in Chicago he
was confident the pension plan
would be enacted at the coming
session of congress and that, there
fore, there would be no need for
a third party.
He said the only steps taken thus
far to form a possible new political
organization had been restricted to
efforts which might be necessary
to protect the millions of Townsend
followers" who desired to vote for
candidates openly committed to
the pension proposal.
Townsend insisted, however, that
the third party movement has
progressed to such an extent that
plans are being made for a nation
al convention of delegates of local
Townsend clubs to choose a presi-
Dental nominee. Chicago, Cleve-
land and Los Angeles are attempt
ing to get the convention" he said.
