—Two men suspeited of having stolen :
an automobile escaped attest because
the iron hand of the lav* was held in j
abayenco while the sheriff and shet - j
iff-elect were settling the contested
office in court.
The two men were observed near
Rulo by Homer D. Kirk, mayor of
that place, and he notified the sher
iffs office. At that very hour, how
ever, the question of who was sheriff
was resting in the hands of County ,
Judge Falloon. so the deputy, who
i received the call, delayed action un
til the result of the contest was deter
mined.
A1 Young of Humboldt finally won
out by three votes, but the thieves,
not caring to wait for the result,
skipped away in the meantime, leav
ing tile car behind.

Elected President of State

Association.
IJnioln, Ian. 12—(Special I—Knact
ment of a luxury tax, the proceed* of
which shall go for the support of the
schools, is the answer which the Ne
braska State Boards and School Ex
ecutives association makes to the de
mand for lower school expenditures
in the sttate.
Although no definite provisions for
a luxury tax were outlined in the res
olutions which were adopted and
which will be sent to the legislature,
speakers during the course of the dis
cussion mentioned rigarets and cos
metics Assistant Superintendent ,1.
I.. McCrory of Omaha urged no re
duction in school taxes but advocated
the mo* economical administration of
school affairs. He said cigarets and
cosmetics cost the state more last
year than all of the school taxes.
These officers were elected at the
closing session of t he association: Pres
ident, Mrs. E. Felton, York: secre
tary, C. Ray Gates. Brand Island;
treasurer, 11. O. Schaaf. David City;
executive committee, Supt, 11. B.
Simmons. Norfolk; fi. TV. Bishop. Uni
versity Place, and 11. S. King, York.
The resolutions adopted in addition
to asking the legislature to enact a
state luxury tax, request the mainte
nance of the present nonresident high !
school tuition of $2 per pupil and to ,
permit children along the state line
to go to more convenient schools in'
the neighboring states with their own
districts paying tuition.
Steps were taken to join with the
Nebraska Association of City School
Boards. The next meeting of the
association will be held in Grand
