i THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1934. PLATTSMOUTH SEMI - WEEKLY JOURNAL PAGE THREE Claim Tuition Law of State is Clearly Invalid State Superintendent Taylor's At torneys Object to Diverting School Funds. Attorneys for State Superinten ent Taylor filed a breif Friday with the supreme court in which he asked a declaratory judgement as to the con stitutionality of II. R. 445. This is a law which provides that school dis tricts which supply tuition to children of officers and men of the army, navy and marine corps may, upon making claim, be reimbursed out cf the temp orary school fund, which distributes a million more or less every year to school districts, the money represent ing earnings of the permanent school fund and inccmo from state lands. The law fixes reimbursement at $1 a week for grade and $3 a week for high school students in this class. The test case involves the Lincoln school dist rict. The state superintendent takes the position that the law is invalid because it diverts this income to uses other than those detailed in the constitution and provides for an inequitable dis tribution of funds. His attorneys say it is also a special law, prohibit ed by the constitution, and makes an arbitrary classification. There is nothing to prevent parents of these children becoming citizens of the state, and that being true, their treatment should be that of all other school children. They point out that their situa tion is no different from that of state officers whose duties compel them to reside at the state capital, altho re taining their legal residence in other districts, and the supreme court has held that the Lincoln district must supply them with school facilities. They argue that the', legislature might with as much reason and as good legal logic provide that the educational costs of children of rep ublicans or democrats or socialists should be paid out of the state tempor ary school fund. They point out also that all school districts are compelled to furnish free tuition to children of indigent parents, persons who pay no taxes whatever, and that the position of the children favored in this law is no different. With as much reason their tuition might be ordered paid out of state funds. MADISON SAILOR DROWNS Madison, Neb. Jesse C. Basse, of Madison said he had received a tele gram from Washington stating that his son, William, 21, was lost over board from the U. S. S. Yarnall 180 miles south of Guatamala, Thursday at 3:40 p. m. The body was not re covered, the telegram said, and no further details were given. The youth entered the navy about a year ago. He visited his parents here In June on a leave of absence.

Central Standard Time High School Students Have Fine Program Harry Cooper, Secret Service Oper ative Is Feature on Convocation Program Tuesday. The high school enjoyed one ol the most interesting and education al convocations of the year yesterday morning when the student council presented Mr. Harry Cooper, oper ative in charge of the Secret Sservice office in Omaha, and Miss Jane Boe deker as piano soloist and Mr. L. L. Starrett as vocal soloist. Mr. Cooper has been a member of the Secret Service of the United States for fifteen years during which time he has served with the service in guarding Wilson, Harding, Cool idge and Roosevelt. He has charge of the area comprising, Nebraska South Dakota, Iowa and part of Colo rado. For forty minutes, Mr. Cooper held the close attention of the stu dent body as he related in a most pleasing and effective manner the origin, work and requirements of the Secret Service and of the chief func tions of the service in guarding the life of the president and his family and in tracking down counterfeiters and others engaged in illicit traffic. His description of the Harding trip to Alaska in 1923 which ended in the death of that president was most graphically told. He brought a real message of care and observance of the law and his fine address will long be remembered by the student body. Particularly were the students ap preciative of the fact that he took time from his busy life to come to Plattsmouth for this occasion. Following his lecture at the high school, Mr. Cooper was guest speaker for the local Rotary club. The Secret Service is one division of the govern ment that has always been enshroud ed in a mist of mystery and not well understood by the general public While Mr. Cooper is engaged in a bi:siness which sometimhes becomes grim and hard yet it was a pleasure for Plattsmouth audiences to have an opportunity to learn something of this most important branch of the service and to meet personally one of the splendid type of able, court eous and intelligent men who com pose it. The addition of Jane Boedeker and Mr. Starrett to the program for the music was a happy one, with Mrs. L. S. Devoe as accompanist for the latter. 'THIRD DEGREE' DECLARED Flemington, N. J. Bruno Richard Hauptmann's New Jersey defense at torney, Lloyd Fisher, charged the state with subjecting the Lindbergh kidnap-slaying suspect to "an insid ious third degree to harass him and break down his mentality." A grim, silent guard of state troop ers and deputy sheriffs, never fewer than five, stands outside Haupt mann's cell night and day, Fisher declared, never speaking to the pris oner or to each other. When the prisoner asks for some thing, the attorney said, it Is hand ed to him without a word. When the guard is changed there are at least ten men outside Hauptmann's cell at one time. "Hauptmann ought not to be sub jected to any indignity not Imposed on other prisoners held under the same charge," Fisher said, indicating he would ask Attorney General Wil entz to remove the troopers as guards. Wilentz, informed at his Perth Amboy home of Fisher's statements, said the state police "have a right to maintain a guard." JIM FARLEY IS GRATIFIED New York. Postmaster General Farley said In a statement that "the most famous figures in the republi can party have been topped into ob livion" and that the new deal "has been magnificently sustained," In the off-year election. "Returns have come in sufficient ly to show the democratic party has won a wonderful victory," said Far ley's statement, issued in mid-evening at national headquarters. "The figures are not yet complete enough for us to go into details a3 to the states we have carried, but we do know that the new deal has been magnificently sustained. Famous re publican figures have been toppled into oblivion. In fact we must won der who they have left that the country ever heard of. "Our majority in the United States senate ha3 been increased and out majority ia the house of representa tives continues at top figure."
