Suit Against Bonus
Dismissed in Court

\VASl-IINGTON. June 28.—Ef-
forts of Joseph Wheless. New
York attorney. to have the soldier
bonus law declared unconstitu-
tlonal by the District of Columbia.
Supreme Court failed yesterday
when Justice Stacord dismissed
his injunction suit. \Vhelcss
noted an appeal.

The court followed as a prece-
(it'i'll. the decision of the United
States Supreme court in the Fro-
tllingham case. in which it denied
the right of a citizen and tax-
payer to attack the validity of
the Sheppard-Towner Maternity
act.

.\ similar suit filed by Benja—
min l.. Calchings. another New
York luwgor, was continued for a
month.

 

 

 

 

 

nut. I am going to call 8. special

nteting of the Common Count-ll for.
'agree on a Ku Klux Klan plank, in

Tuesday night so we can get the
ntgw schools under way.

“To avoid any misunderstand-
ings." interposed Attorney Dunbar.
“I move that the Common Conneil
.nlombcrs be allowed to vote upon
'tllu recommendations to be made in
thi- council on the school contracts."

The vote was carried. unanimous
with one exception. Mr. limit-land
voted in the negative.

The Program.

The joint school cuntnlittce thcn
:tzrted upon the construction of the
‘\\'ushington school Minion; til-.3
Center Junior High school and the
Broad river school without any dif-
liculty. \Vhen it came to choosing
between the Senior High addition
and the East Nortvalk Junior lliglr,
lill‘l‘e was a considerable diffo-rcnce
of opinion at the. start.

Mr. Nash came out in favor of the
East Norwalk Junior High on the
ground that it was poor policy to
build an addition i‘o an old building.
Mayor Ilobins. ton. declared that he
didn't like the idea of building an
addition to the Senior High because
of lack of enough grounds.

Dr. Fawcett declared he wasn‘t

satisfied in his own mind as to
whit-ll was most needed: the East
Norwalk Junior lligh or the. addi-
tion to the Senior High.
Superintendent G. ‘\'. Buchanan

declared in favor of the addition to
the Senior High recommending the
postponement of the Third district
.lunior High. He said that East
Norwalk had not originally aspired
to a junior high building and that
the school was not part of the or-
iginal program. He added that
every junior high pupil could be
and transported to

accommodate
the new Center Junior High at a

cost. of $1.500. He said that there
were only 171 'pupils in the district.

Speaks for By Addition.

He explained that. by not building
the junior high. the salaries of two
teachers would be saved together
with the heating of the school and
janitor service. He declared it was
better to serve 600 pupils at the
senior high and it was hardly to be
expected that a successful High
school could be conducted without
an auditorium. He declared that the
city was not receiving any money
for the tuition of pupils from one
side of the district at the Franklin
school because of the condition of
the school. He said that the State
Board of Education might. take
similar action in the Senior High
school and that the city might lose
the $3.000 a. year it receives for tul-

tion of outside students.

“No matter which way we vote we
are gong to get it in the neck." said
Dr. Fawcett. “Norwalk must. spend
more money on its schools to get
the min shape. If we don't build
the addition to the senior high. we
can get; another’bond issue for a
new high school within the next

four years?” _
Award Contract.

“that about the new junior high
school for the Second district \vitl -
in two years," asker Mrs. G eorge

Betts.

After some more discussion, on
the motion of Mrs. Lane. it was
voted to award the contract for the
East Norwalk Junior High and
abandoned the plans for the addi-

tion to the senior high.

The contracts awarded last. night
subject to the action of the Com-
mon Council call for an expenditure
of $283,951. The total school bond
issue is $350,000 of which some
$40,000 has been. spent for sites.
This means that about $27,149 is

left of the bond issue.

Out of this latter amount .must
come the money for the alterations
in the senior high. There is a. pos-
sibility that the. plan'of cutting up
the high' school ' auditorium into '
rooms may be abandoned. A sub—
stitute plancalls for cutting some of
the rooms in the school in half with

national convention
lion of a platform and selection of a
presidential ticket.

As the delegates assembled how-
ever. the day's procedure was in

form committee still unable to

recess until 1:30 p. m.

Homer S. Cummings of Connecti-
cut. chairman of the committee was
ready to ask the convention. which
had been called for 9:30 a. in. to
take up the platform. to recess un—
til 3 p .m. when he hoped the re-
port u-ould be in shape for preset).-
tlttion.

The committee had 'truggled un-

before yielding to the necessity of
rest and men lilt‘n has been unwill-
ing to gin: up. in an effort to find
some compromise. that would reduce
the lilihood of it. high explosive fight
on the convention.

Threat of Floor Battle. 1

The threat. of lx'lun fight. in the
convention and its dangerous poten-i
tialitlcs to the party also kept other.
lenders up most of the night in a
number of small conferences seek-
ing the way out of the difficulty.
which had almost completely over-
shadowed the controversy over the
League of Nations plank.

“bother the LeagUe of Nations
declaration would be carried to the.
floor depended upon the decision ofi
Newton 1). Baker. secretary of war
in \Voodrotv Wilson's war-lime cabi-
net. Thc committee had adopted. 34
to 16. a composite plank calling for
a national referendum on American
membership in the League. Mr.
Baker. however, had stood firmly.
though practically alone. for an un-
equivocal declaration pledging the!
party. if given control of the gov-
ernment \: take immediate steps to
bring the United States into the
League and be. d prepared a. minor.
lty report for presentation to the
convention but had not at an early
hour, made known definitely whe-
ther he would when the time came
take such a course.

16 In Nomination.

The last of the preliminary form-
alities of the convention were clear-
ed away yesterday when the roll
call of states for nominations was
completed and. as a result. 16 names

i
i

today as candidates for the presi—.
dcntial nomination. It was known
also that several others would re-
ceive votes during the early ballot-
ing at least.

The week of steadily accelerated
manoeuvering apparently had
brought about no material change in
the deadlocked situation involving
the vast field of candidates. William
G. McAdoo’ of California. and Gov-
ernor Alfred E. Smith. of New York.
retained the lead in the number of
pledged votes for the opening bal—
lot and managers 0 feach maintain-

dark horse candidates. continued to
express pleasure over the situation
and confidence in the outcome.

 

‘ ACCIDENT.
Dr. Charles Bobannnn of South
Main street is tod consult letting
himself upon his as. row case from
serious injury yestierday when his
automobile. in order to avoid strik-
ing another machine, skidded on the

Dr. Bahamian who wason his way
to pay a professional visit in Dnrien
was driving along the Post. Road. At
the Norwalk-Darien town line. an-

from one of the side read; directly
in the path of his car. In order to
avoid striking the automobile the
doctor 'swerved sharply to the left.

Faced With Prospect of Taking Recess or
Finding Something; Else to Do—SeSsibn

This Afternoon

DIADISON SQUARE GARDEN,

The convention was even slower,

than usual. in assembling and at
nine-thirty. the hour set for opening
the session, not a. dozen delegates
were on the floor. The galleries were
- virtually empty.

Many Police on Hand.

The extra. precautions had been

taken because of the overrunning of
the floor at recent sessions by the
armies of demonstrators that had
broken through to parade around
the ball as a part of the noise .mnk-
ing for their favorite candidates. {it
a. special conference of convention

officials it had been decided that
hereafter only about sixty persons
besides delegates and alternates

~should hate. access to the floor—

twenty of them belonging to the
staff of the sergeant at arms. twen-
ty selected front the corps of new;—
papermcn at work in the Convention

hall and twenty representing the field

forces of the various candidates.

Many of the delegates had not
heard of the failure of the platform
committee to complete its work. or
of the plan to recess the convention
until this afternoon. 'As the news
sprr‘nd over the floor. there were
many expressions of disappointment
and discontent. Hotel bills were
mounting. the delegates are anxious
to get home to take care of urgent
private affairs. and they are anxious
too for a. show down on candidates.
it was apparent that the plan to re-

cess ulthout any action at this morn-

ing's session would arouse opposi-
tion and possibly a stiff fight.

At ten o‘clock the arena still was
occupied only by a handful of dele-
gates. who gathered in small knots
earnestly discussing the plight in
which the contention found itself as
a result of the row over the Klan.
No one seemed to know whether the‘
proposal to; adjourn would command
the necessary strength or whether
a. majority would demand that the
convention go ahead with other
planks in the platform and with a
few ballots on a. candidate.

Mrs. Dominick. “Develop the power
