The State Department of Industrial Relations is hearing more claims for workmen’s compensation than any time in its history, according to Chester A. Miller, chief claims ex­ aminer. The bank holiday through­ out the state caused an added . -‘cumu­ lation of cases recently, making it necessary to list for one day "alone last week 248 hearings, a record- breaker. For sometime the total num­ ber of claims for hearing has run from 200 to 250,. while only a few years; ago 75 was thought to be a large number. Incorporation fees paid into the office of Secretary of State George S. Myers have increased in recent weeks, the increase being almost solely due to the legislation legalizing beer. In­ cluded among the fees recently paid Were $3,975 by the Renner Company o f Youngstown for the increase o f its capitalization from 2,000 to 600,000 shares of $1.00 par value stock, $2,350 by the Sohn Brewing Company of Cincinnati, newly incorporated with 200,000 shares of no par stock, and $750 by the Washington Breweries, Inc., o f Columbus, with 20,000 shares of no par stock, ' Laymen’s Meeting Set For Xenia The Christian -Laymen’s Association of Xenia are planning another Greene County Evangelistic campaign in the Tabernacle on West Third street, Xenia, and have engaged Rev.

After hearing Mr. Rimmer for the first time in the North Avenue Presbyterian Church, Atlanta, Ga., Fuzzy Woodruff, writer o f the At­ lanta Journal wrote o f him saying in part. "His language is as unclerical as his appearance. He uses the language o f the laboratory, the ob­ servatory or the research department and again it is the patois of the street. His delivery is emphatic and forceful but distinctly uncannonical, pnd he seasons every utterance with a tart condiment o f humor. - “ I checked the subjects with which he exhibited scholarly familiarity. He knows the Bible by heart. Then he trotted out chronology, and anthropo­ logy, and archaeology, geology, as­ tronomy, physics; chemistry, living languages and . dead languages, history, politics and on down thru the alphabet to zoology and marshall­ ed them to corroborate the Word of God.” / Mr. Rimmer is President of the Re­ search Science Bureau; is an ordained Presbyterian Minister and is known wideely for his Bible Lectures and Scientific Phamplets. Some of the suggested topics for the Xenia meet­ ings are "Modern Science and the Fact of God,” “ The Harmony of.

Barberton Post, No. 1066, Veterans of Foreign Wars, this week obtained from the Secretary of State’s office through State Senator Frank E. Whittemore of Akron the 23 yolumes containing the roster o f Ohio soldiers, sailors and marines of the World War. The Post’s original volumes were destroyed by fire when the head­ quarters burned, and the books ob­ tained from the Secretary of State will replace them. Many sets of these volumes are stored in the 80 year-old basement o f the State House where they are liable to destruction and disintegration if allowed to remain there too long. Under the law adopted May 7, 1919, and amended April 21, 1927, one set o f this roster may be given to each member o f the General Assembly, one to 'each college and university library in the state and one to each county recorder in the state in addition to other distribution pro­ vided for in the act, the remaining sets to be placed in the custody of the Secretary o f State and distributed to varicius posts of the American Legion and such other service organizations and individuals as the commission authorized to secure the publication of the roster may decide are entitled(to the sets. If there are any American Legion or other war service organiza­ tions in the state that have not yet obtained these rosters they should take steps to have them mailed by parcel post. This can be done by for­ warding $1.32 to cover postage. 40c Lemon Extract Our Best Grade—21c Week End Special at Brown’s Drugs Subscribs for The Hsrald Last Call For Farm Seed Loans Xenia, against John A.

One of the most important trials of recent years in Common Pleas Court is now in progress with McClain Cat­ terlin, Brazil, Ind., 65, who is charged with violating the Ohio securities law in the sale of certificates in so-called New York City estates, In aB much as hundreds of people in this and adjoining states are inter­ ested, in the estates by the fact they are heirs or holders o f certificates, the court room was crowdeed through­ out the day. Prosecutor Marcus Mc- Callister represents the'State and At­ torney F. L. Johnson, the defendant, George H. Smith is assisting Prose­ cutor McCallister. The jury selected early Monday afternoon for the trial is composed of two women and ten men as fol­ lows': Helen Ankeney, Beavercreek Twp.; J. M. Bales, Xenia; David Venard, Jamestown; Arthur A. Miller, Xenia; Ernest Hill, Jamestown; Earl Koogler, Beavercreek Twp.; Joseph Slaughter, Bath Twp.; John S. Ayres Xenia; Bernard Kyne, near Xenia; Grover King, near Spring Valley; Mrs. Marie Martindale, Cedarville. Darrell Kline, Osborn. ’ Mrs. Mary Buck and'; John A. Mc­ Clain, Xenia, state witnesses, testi­ fied Catterlin had never made repre­ sentations as to the value of the securities sold Both were state witnesses. Attorney Harry D. Smith, advisory member o f defense counsel, testified as custodian of 8,333 powers of at­ torney executed by heirs to Catterlin that had been on deposit in a Xenia bank. Catterlin is charged/ with violation of the state securities act but his defense,is that his company was a non-profit, acting only for. shareholders. Others called to testify were County Clerk Harvey Elam, Xenia; Mrs. Lucy K, Walrath. New Richmond, O., one of the incorporators, against which the federal postal department had is­ sued a fraud, order. The'order was introduced by the state, but the ob­ jections of the defense were overruled by Judge Gowdy. Mrs. Irma Earley, Xenia, testified that she doubted her son had pur­ chased certificates. at the home of Elmer Huston. Xenia, but Prosecutor recalled a different story she told be­ fore the grand jury. Miss-Leona Keller, Xenia,^ a certi­ ficate holder, formerly secretary to Catterlin, testified she made out a certificate to Earley at the- Huston home. She also testified that Catter­ lin had made the statement ■in presence, and that o f Frank E. Snypp, as follows: “ Well, I’m going to have enough money out of this to retire on and I’m going to get it out of the sale of these certificates.” Dr. Vandeman, Spring Valley, testi­ fied that Catterlin repudiated a form­ er statement when he said: “He had no proof of any trust fund.” Prosecutor McCalister introduced letters from Catterlin to McClain, in which the former said he was “ not afrad of the blueyflky law.” L. A. Wagner, Xenia, testified that a meeting at the home of Elmer Huston, Catterlin and Snypp being present, the former made reference to a "supposed trust fund of $400,000,- 000 believed to have been'paid in the Rockfeller and Standard Oil interests, that a compromise might be PRICE, $1.50 A YEAR COUNTYBOARDS WILLOPOSE PROPOSEDLAW Representatives of the various boards o f education in the county met in Xenia Saturday for the purpose o f forming a county-wide organization to interest school patrons and taxpayers in opposing the proposed Annat bill that, would abolish all local hoards of education and place control o f the schools under the county board and state education department. Albert Ankeney, Beavercreek, was chosen president, and Roscoe Turner, Silvercreek-Jamestown, was named secretary. P. M. Gillilan, Cedarville; acted as temporary chairman in the absenre of W. B. Rife, Clifton. With all eleven; of the township bpards represented, except Bowers- ville and Clifton, sentiment expressed was that the patrons of the schools would vigorously oppose such a change in the .law and resolutions were passed to be forwarded to Rep-' resentative W, R. McChesney, Gover­ nor George White, and to the joint senate-house committee on school legislation. The. following resolu­ tion was passed by a unanimous vote; Whereas it has been proposed, by the enactment of the Senate bill 220 (the Annat bill) to abolish local - school districts throughout Ohio, and , to transfer the control of schools to county boards o f education. Be it resolved by the Greene County Organization for Local Control o f Schools that the passage o f Senate bill 220 would be inimical to the best in­ terests of our schools; and that this Organization urge all citizens of the county to present the cast for—local control of schools to their state senator and representative, in order to prevent the enactment o f this bill or any similar measure that would re­ move the control o f school from local boards of education. Our reasons for voting this resolu­ tion are as follows: , 1. We believe that no economy would result from the enactment o f the Annat bill, since local boards serve for no.salaries or for nominal salaries, since the merging o f school districts without additional buildings is not feasible, and since new bond issues fo r building purposes would, in the present economic situation, be a disaster to the county. 2. We believe that absentee control of the schools has been proved to be generally less sympathetic, intelligent, and efficient than local control. 3. We believe that local-control is democratic in spirit, that it fosters public interest in the schools, and that its abolishment would be contrary to the wishes of the tax-payers. 4. We believe that the powers of taxing local communities for school purposes should be vested mainly in the local representatives of those com­ munities, rather than in a county board. DR.

While various- wild reports are in circulation in the county in reference to the Annat bill, the Herald secured a statement from Representative W. R. McChesney, Thursday, that should clear the situation so far as Greene county is concerned. We are satisfied that at least seven out of ten citizens 1 in the county are opposed to the An- net bill and that there is no reason for worry on the part of board mem­ bers or school patrons. Representative McChesney yesterday assured the Herald that he was not only opposed to the change in the school law but desired his constituents in the county to rest assured that he would vote against it. We have had np opportunity to in­ terview either the members of the Greene County Board of Education or County Superintendent, H. C. Ault- man, as to their opinions on this bill but we feel certain they have no de­ sire to lend support to any change in the school laws that so large a Mr. Turnbull was awakened by the ______, ___ - „ . ... ■ . . ., 11 j, , . , . percentage o f the patrons are object- smell of smoke in his room and upon The individual scoring in the boys ;investigation discovered fire had eaten division from Cedarville is'as follows: through much of the hoUse and he 100 yd. dash-Smith, first; Lemons, jcacapcd with 0T)ly part of his cloth. ling- second. 220 yd. dash smitn, nrst; demons, j rpbc bre bad aiready envelope^ the second. iroom in which the telephone was 440 yd. dash Ferryman, third. located so that aid from neighbors 880 yd. run McCorkell, third; .was 8]ow jn reaching the fire, A piano Klontz, fourth. jand f eW articles from ohe room was ' % „ . 880 yd. relay Cedarville (Lemons, - ^ that wa3 savft(1.
