The appropriations committee rec- ommends $600,000 of the $820,000 recommended for the enlargement and relocation of the Botanic Garden under the provisions of the act ap- proved January 5 last. Of the sum recommended, $20,000 has been asked for the removal and re-erection of the Bartholdi Fountain and $800,000 f ‘the acquisition of the property in the squares proposed tobe taken. The committee has eliminated the amount for removal of the fountain at the present time, believing that such re- moval should not be made until all land in the area has been acquired and construction authorized for the new conservatories proposed. The {amount for acquisition of the prop- erty has been reduced from $800.000 to $600,000. The estimate of $500,000 was based upon twice the assessed value of the property. One square to be acquired has an assessed value of $334,096 and, the other square, ex- clusive of property owned by the Dis- trict Government, has an assessed value of $53,333, making a total as- sessed value of the two squares of $887,429.

MUNCIE, Ind., February 23 Clarence W. Dearth of the Delaware Circuit Court called the grand jury to assemble this afternoon, presumably to consider the case of George R. Dale, editor, copies of whose weekly newspaper were confiscated last Sat- urday because of an article therein | criticlzing Judge Dearth and other | county officers. Dale, who is in Washington in con nection with an appeal from a con tempt conviction imposed by Dearth, is expected to return to Muncie next Saturday. Judge Dearth’s action ‘was taken without consulting Joseph Davis. prosecuting attorney, Davis said when informed of the calling of the grand jury. Warns Newsboys. Judge Dearth today cited the s which makes it an offense for slander to berepeated again and again, and announced that newsboys, who in the future attempt to circulate ne papers containing slanderous state- ments would be brought into _court. “I am not worried by impeach- ment threats,” Dearth said, adding that he had retained Van L. Ogle, for- mer prosecuting attorney, as his counsel. Circulation of Dale’s newspaper was suppressed_last Saturday by police | {and sheriff’s deputies on order of Judge Dearth, and 60 newshoys were | haled before Dearth and threatened with being placed in juvenile de: if they continued to sell their papers. The impeachment threats, were said to have been made by friends of Dale, who proposed to take action again: the judge in the State legislature, which is now in session at India- napolis. Mr. Dale, who has carried to the Su- preme Court his fight to keep from serving a sentence for contempt of court, was preparing today to leave Washington for his home to face two | new legal actions brought on by his | bitter fight against conditions in Muncie, With his application for reinstate ment_of his appeal safely filed with the clerk of the Supreme Court, ther by fortifying himself against immedi- ate arrest to begin serving his term the Ku Klux Klan foe turned his attention to another citation for con- tempt, filed Monday, and a civil suit asking $25,000 for libel. Informed of New Suit. Dale expects to abandon a contem- plated trip to New York and to return immediately to Muncie. He was in- formed by telephone last night, he said, of the damage suit, which follows his conylction last Summer on a charge of criminal libel, growing out of the publication of the same article in the Muncie Post-Democrat. The aggrieved person is Raymond Warren, to whom Dale gave some attention in the columns of his paper. Dale, who has been convicted on two charges of contempt, and one of criminal libel, caprying combined sen- tences of 11 months and $1,400 in fines, with several other actions pend- ing against him, came here last week to get his case before the Supreme Court again. His first appeal wx thrown out last month because of his failure to file the proper papers. Steps to Block Arrest. He said today that steps had been taken in Muncie, seeking to prevent his arrest on the new contempt charge when he returns. The charge. he said, grew out of the publication of a communication in_his paper attack- ing the court. His wife has been editing the paper in his absence. ute e Boys Are Entertained. An entertainment for young boys was given at Friendship House, 326 Virginia avenue southeast, under the auspices of the institutional committee of the Kiwanis Club Monday night. The program included an address on “Clean 'Sport” by Robert F. Fleming, who established several track records indoors; and addresses by Stephen Talkes and Willlam S. Quinter, | Kinwanis president; also the recitation | of George Washington poems and | piano selections by Walter Talkes, | while fancy whistling was rendered by Harry G. Kimball.
