Today We Are Losing Gold. But Business Is Good. A Whale's Gastric Juice. 34th St. to Europe, by Air.

-By Arthur- -Brisbane TALL is worrying a little because of gold leaving the United States. Gold shipped from New York last week, worth close to $50,000,000, set a record for several years. At that rate control of the world's gold would soon shift from the United States to Europe. The bank of France today has more gold than any nation except this. Recently Japan solved her gold problem simply by forbidding exportation.

country did that during the war, when American dollars were apiece in Spain, thin and cortesertmonts stood higher the world's currency market than Uncle Sam's money. However, we have plenty of gold left. And what is more important, 1 we have the things that you can exchange for gold, and the industrial intelligence that beats competition. So there is no cause for great worry. Secretary Lamont reports to President Hoover that Christmas buying is more active this year than it was last.

He told young gentlemen that he did not believe the whale swallowed Jonah, kept him down some time, then coughed him up on the beach, safe and sound. Whales have powerful digestive fluids, and their throats are too small to swallow anything big.

They live on minute marine creatures. Therefore, Dr. Day said, he didn't think the Jonah story possible. Up rose 21-year-old Mr. Gallman.

divinity student, to denounce Professor Day and say he should leave the university. miracle is no more difficult than other. Young Mr. Gallman, 21, knows that if necessary the whale's throat could have been made especially wide, or it could have been temporarily deprived of gastric juice. Or, if necessary, Jonah, the moment he was swallowed, could have changed miraculously into a young unborn whale.

in which case he would have been very, comfortable, to inside land of in thee whale right place. It is distressing that such questions should arise. After Dr. Day's address, young Mr. Gallman and his ministerial students went to the ministerial building and prayed a whole hour for the unbelieving professor.

Mr. Frederick H. Ecker, head of Metropolitan Life Company, lends former Governor Smith, of York, twenty-seven and a half millions of dollars to build a gigantic office building and tower on of the old Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. The loan interests millions of policy holders, who have made a good loan, and interests the nation because the new building will have top a mooring mast to anchor 'dirigible airships, something never done before in a great city. Pessimsts say the mooring mast will not be a success.

They always say that of anything new. Mr. Ecker undoubtedly will back up Governor Smith in his mooring mast idea. While Ecker and Smith are still young and active, they see passengers go mast, get into AN airship and start for Europe or the Pacific Ocean from the corner of Thirty-fourth street and Fifth avenue.

231. MUNCIE. INDIANA, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1929. PRICE TEN CENTS. a HEATH KILLER IN STATE JAIL TAX REDUCTION PUT THROUGH BY SENATE, 63 TO 14 Proposed Slash of 000,000 Off Income Dues Is Now Assured.

By Francis M. Washington, Dec. 14 (P)A slash of $160,000,000 in next year's dues of individual and corporation income taxpayers was assured today with the adoption by the Senate of the House tax reduction resolution by a 63-to-14 vote. Republican and Democratic leaders joined in support of the proposal and repeated attempts to amend or substitute the tax cut were overwhelmed throughout a long day of debate. Supported by Democrats.

Western Republican independents assailed the reduction as a gift to the rich, but Democratic spokesmen supported the contention of administration leaders that it had buoyed up a delicate economic situation and was vital in the revival of good conditions throughout the country. Eleven western Republican independents and three Democrats were the only ones voting against the resolution. The resolution still must be signed by President Hoover and it goes to the White House on Monday. Mr. Hoover already has advocated it and his signature is expected forthwith.

The legislation is the first of the regular session (which began two weeks ago) to complete the congressional circuit. References to Unemployment. The long day of debate centered principally on business conditions and brought frequent reference to unemployment. Senator Couzens (Republican, Michigan), who sponsored amendment to include also a reduction in the capital gains and loss tax from to 11 per cent, said he had been reliably informed that unemployment had advanced from 700,000 to more than 3,000,000 men in recent days. He supported the tax cut as a means of diminishing unemployment.

Senator Wagner (Democrat, New York), who sponsored a recent investigation into unemployment, took the same position and deplored that partisanship should, take any part in consideration resolution. Amendment Lost by 53 to 22. The Couzens amendment was rejected 53 to 22, but Chairman Smoot of the finance committee announced that he would favor the proposal the first point in the next general tax revision. The tax cut applies only on, this year's income, on which taxes are to be paid next year. Democrats inquired whether a permanent revision of the revenue rates was not contemplated.

Chairman Smoot indicated that as soon as business was on a normal basis and the income of the government could be definitely established, such a course would be considered. Norris Against It. Senator Norris, of Nebraska, a leader of the Republican independents again led the attack on the resolution, insisting that the "only justification given for it is its psychological effect on business." He remarked that the government should dismiss all its tariff, financial and economic experts and hire psychologists to take their places. Senator Thomas (Democrat, Oklahoma) offered a substitute proposing Continued on Sixteenth Page. WIDOW IS HELD IN MARION BOMB DEATH Mrs.

Legos Charged With Slaying Husband. Marion, Dec. 14 (AP) Mrs. Erma Legos, 36, was formally charged with murder today in connection with the death of her husband, Andrew A. Legos, 35, labor union leader, who was fatally injured October 28, when a bomb under the floor boards of his automobile exploded as he stepped on the starter.

The affidavit charging her with murder was filed in the City Court and was signed by Chief of Police Lewis L. Lindenmuth. Mrs. Legos was taken into custody last Tuesday when she appeared at the county jail on a subpena issued by Chief Field Deputy George E. Coogan, of the Indiana fire marshal's office.

From 10 o'clock morning until noon Thursday she was questioned by authorities without rest. Evidence Is Withheld. The questioning was done by Coogan and H. A. Fishleigh, internationally known detective.

They refused to reveal what evidence they were able to obtain. Andrew A. Legos died on November 17, three weeks after the fatal bombing, which was the second. The first bombing was on October 3, when the Marion Labor Temple was wrecked by a blast and two men killed. Authorities declare they "have been led to believe that the first bombing was an attempt Legos's life.

At the time of the first explosion the Mould Makers' Union, Local No. 35, of which Legos corresponding secretary, was in session. The Grant County grand jury will be called into session within the near future to further investigate the two bombings, which have resulted in the death of three men, SCHOOL RELIEF PROBLEM REARS AS VOTE WORRY Seen as a New Obstacle for State Candidates to Hurdle Next Fall. By Maurice Early. Indianapolis, Dec.

aspects of the school distress problem in parts of southern Indiana is being given a great deal of serious consideration in the statehouse. All the two year officers who are up for reelection next year as well as a majority of the judges of the Supreme and Appellate Courts look upon the school mess as another obstacle they must hurdle in the fall election. Of course the school problem is not a political one. It has resulted from the passage of laws forcing school corporations to spend money and not providing any new sources of revenue for them. Reflects on Administration.

But disclosures about the sorry plight of many of the so-called poorer townships naturally tends to discredit the administration in power. This is true even though the conditions now causing trouble are the result of legislative actions of four, six and eight years ago. The present administration did bring about the trouble, but if there to be any one made the net, goat it will have to be those in power. Therefore there is a great deal of speculation on how the administration will face this crisis. Inaction will result in a festering of the sore.

By next fall the school problem in the rural districts will be a real issue. Under the present financial system their condition is bound to get worse rather than better. Many school units that are head over heels in debt have to start next year without funds. It is doubtful whether some of these corporations can obtain teachers who will agree to work without any prospect of receiving salary during the year. Closing of Schools Unlikely.

In spite of the agitation of some of the county school superintendents and threats to close the schools in some townships January 1, it is not at all likely that any school in the state will closed. Many of the superintendents have made it clear that closing the schools will not reduce expenses because contracts are made for the year. Salaries would continue whether the schools are open or closed. Teachers could strike and thus bring about a closing of the schools. But there is not much likelihood of this as these teachers would be breaking their contracts and would forfeit their claim to the salary.

It would not profit them to strike. One of the peculiar features of the present school crisis is that people in the cities are taking an unusual interest in it and there appears to be a real public demand for action to relieve a condition which is looked upon as shameful. Temporary Relief Only Plan. Regardless of contending theories about the cause for the present school distress and conflicting plans for correcting the condition there appears to be only one avenue open to the state. That is to give temporary relief.

That could be done by calling a special session of, the legislature to appropriate enough money to pay the salaries of teachers now due. It is certain that the legislature, even if called in special session, could not provide funds to take care of all the indebtedness of the bankrupt school corporation. The state treasury would not stand it. The state tax levy is already made for next year and therefore the legislature could not make an appropriation in anticipation of revenue coming into the state treasury. Should a special session of the legislature to entire school appropriating enough attempt, money to pay off the deficits of these schools the state treasury would be drained.

As it is the expenditures of the state and the anticipated revenue for next year will just about tally. Leaders who have been making a study of the condition of the state Continued on Sixth Page.

14 (A) Symbolic of a mother's anguish and hopemother who for, nearly a year has been torn between hope that her little lost boy is alive, and fear that he is dead there stood in a little cottage here tonight a withered Christmas tree. It was fresh and green a year ago. But tonight: "The little toy dog is covered with dust, But sturdy and staunch he stands; The little toy soldier is red with rust, And his musket moulds in- his hands." Torn by False Reports. Chubby 4-year-old Melvin Horst played with the tree and the toys last Christmas and then disappeared.
