To The Patrons Of Clifton School District This statement is being made by the Board o f Education to the Patrons and Friends o f Clifton School District in order chat they may know the exact financial condition o f the school and what will happen providing the vote fo r Participation in the State Equalization Fund (State Aid) does not carry. Do you know that the 3 mill levy expires this year and this makes it impossible to have State Aid fa r th e r than Jan. 1st, 1938 ? This means a loss Of $2000,00. A lso that Clifton School District must begin again to pay high school tuition to Cedarville, Wh ich amounts to about $ 2 ,- 400.00 per year. The schoof taxes in Clifton District amount to .$2,000.00 less than form er years, all o f this makes a deficit o f $6,400.00, Do you know also that boards o f education are not permit­ ted to operate schools unless funds are forthcom ing? THIS MEANS THAT CLIFTON SCHOOLS MUST CLOSE UNLESS THE VOTE FOR STATE AID CARRIES. It means alsi that schools cannot open until sometime in 1933 and only then f o r as long as the money lasts. Dou you know also that the children are in danger o f losing one year's schooling— they cannot pass Into the next grade un­ less the work is done? Dor you know that the salaries o f you r teachers have been decreased around IB per cent in order that the money misht go as fa r as it would? . t. Do you want Clifton School to loose its standing and child­ ren to loose their school year? I f you want the State to assume this year’s deficit o f $6,- 400.00 or more i f necessary, and schools to continue as they have in the past—VOTE YES on the ticket handed you for PARTICIPATION IN STATE EQUALIZATION FUND.

Error Corrected In Report Published H.: A* Higgins, Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee, w.as quick to correct figures in a published political statement, reflecting on the cost o f operation of the auditor’s of­ fice under James J, Curlett. The pub­ lication listed salaries for deputies and clerks at $9,240 instead of $6,020, which should have been given as the correct amount. The figures had been taken from a newspaper report that had the amount in error. The correct figures, $6,020, is the lowest office hire expense since 1923. The incorrect figures were taken from a published financial statement where in the error had not been noticed.

Baker and Springer heirs, * corpora­ tion selling certificates supposedly to finance efforts to force the liquidation o f huge Eastern estates! was placed under arrest In Xenia Wednesday and has been bound over to the grand jury under $20,000 bond. Not yet having secured bond he is held in county pail, He is charged with having embez­ zled $36,000 from the company, the affidavit being .filed by W. R.

Some have contended for months the whole scheme was a fraud but so many owners o f certificates were con­ fident they would get in on these vast estates, they not only purchased more certificates hut urged others to do the same. ■ ■ President Stands For Prohibition Change • President Hoover, on Wednesday in a telegram denied published reports that he had changed his views on the proposed changes in the eighteenth amendment • since his acceptance speech.
