CITIZENS PROTEST BLL RESMATN Covington Leaders Denounce Council for Evicting For- mer D. C. Man. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. COVINGTON, Ky., May 16.—An im. mense throng of prominent residents invaded the meeting of the city com- | missioness yesterday, creating a near ' riot by shouting, whistling and stamp- | ing in protest against accepting the resignation of Col. J. Franklin Bell, for- merly Engineer Commissioner of Wash- ington, as city manager of Covington. | Their protests were vain, as the resig- | nation was accepted, 3 to 1. | Charles Zimmer, sr., safety commis- sioner; Louls Meyer, finance commis- | sioner, and T. Monroe Swindler, pub- lic property commissioner, voted to ac- | cept the resignation, with Mayor ‘Thomas F. Donnally dissenting. Joseph F. Pieper, commissioner of publie works, | ‘was not present. H The first protest against the action | of the commissioners in the city man- | ager controversy was a resolution of the Latonia Covington Civic Club. The resolution branded the board’s act as the greatest mistake it could have made and urged its action be reconsidered. Rev. Kenneth Bowen, president of the Covington Ministerial Association, denounced the city commissioners for their secrecy in roughly ousting Col. Bell without giving him a chance to know why he was fired and without iving him & chance to present any de- fense, as it is generally known that he had driven gangsters, gamblers, white slave agents, and known crooks out of the city for the first time such action has been known in the city's history. Covington being the location of the La- tonia races, from which the city de- rives exceedingly large income in the way of taxes, Rev. Bowen charged the sct of the commissioners to a secret influence yielded by a secret political party, known as the Red Elephants, composed in main part of employes of the Federal Government, headed by a Congressman. Dr. Charles W. Reynolds, president of the Covington Board of Education, drastically scored the city commission- ers’ board for its secrecy and its refusal to allow Col. Bell a chance to defend himself or have time to arrange his af- fairs, though he resigned from the United States Army Engineers in Washington to take the city manager's b. ’ocity Manager C. O. Sherrill of Cin- cinnati, who brought Col. Bell to Cov- ington, will address a citizens’ mass meeting at Covington Saturday night, demanding the recall of Col. Bell on et e laree mumber of gmown n o arge number of crooks, gamblers, illicit whisky distil- lers, white slavers and dope dealers. ot FIX GERMAN RATE International Bank Puts Interest on Reparations Loan at 51 Pet.

Declaring “the juvenile court is fast taking the place of the old-fashioned woodshed,” where parental discipline was administered, Secretary of Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur deplored that many children in the large cities are sen- tenced to the reformatory for minor offenses in speaking before a meeting of the chairmen of the White House Conference on Child Health and Pro- tection at his office today. Meeting with the committee chairmen were some 20 editors, representing leading magazines, who attended the meeting upon invitation of Secretary Wilbur y | and are to form an advisory committee to the conference. ‘The editors attending the conference were the guests of President Hoover at luncheon at the White House this after- noon. Secretary Wilbur recalled that many reputable citizens of today enjoyed “watermelon stealing when young chil- dren,” and asserted than an offense of @ similar nature by a boy or girl in the city today would probably bring a sentence to & house of correction. The section chairmen of the confer- ence explained their work at today's meeting for the benefit of the editors. The latter held an executive session prior to going to the White House. The desirabllity of placing at the disposal of mothers the great opportu- nities that modern knowledge offers for care of children was urged upon the conference by Secretary of Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur, Believes Public Ready. The chairmen of the various com- mittees, meeting in Secretary Wilbus office, were told by him that the co!

Imperial AUTO POLISH ference “is trying to wedge into Ameri- can civilization the great opportunities that modern knowledge offers through the physician, the teacher, the public health worker—the great advantages that all this has to offer to civilization. I think the public is ready for it and I think it is largely a responsibility of ours to see that éur information gets the largest possible spread,” he said. “We must do what we can to help the children, not only in this country, but in many countries, to get from the ac- cumulated information that has been gathered the real advantages. Unless we do this we will not be successful.” Dr. H. E. Barnard, director of the conference, presided and also made a short address. PFrench Strother, administrative as- sistant to the President, and chairman of the committee on public relations, spoke briefly in regard to the form of publication the work will take and the interest that the Nation as a whole has taken in this movement.
