OVER MARRIED
TEACHER'S JOB
Mrs. Waters Announces 'she
Ylil be on Hand When
School Is Opened
Hand Instruction Comes up
Again, Action Delayed
To Later Meeting
Salem school directors, refus
ing to back down on their ultima
turn of last spring that any wom
an teacher who got married would
be dismissed, last night at a! spe
cial meeting instructed Superin
tendent George Hug to employ a
first grade instructor on substl
tute basis to fill the vacancy at
Washington school, which under
tne board's ruling resulted from
the marriage of Mrs. Llta "Waters.
The superintendent requested
the board for instructions in the
matter because, he said, jMrs
waters had Informed him; she
would fight her dismissal as con
trary to the teacher tenure law
He quoted her as saying! she
would attend the teachers' Insti
tute, the teachers' meetings t;oday
and be at her old school room at
the opening of classes Monday
morning.
That the dismissal of a teacher
on marriage grounds is open to
legal question, the board admit
ted. In the case of a district not
unaer leacner tenure, the attor
ney general has ruled that s
teacher's marriage does not in
validate ner contract. In the pres
ent instance," the teacher vras not

Band Instruction
Issue Not Derided
Also facing the board was the
problem of band instruction in
the senior high school. E. R. Der
ry, with a monthly salary of $170
was not offered a new contact
Directors Keene, Wright and
Pound advocated hiring of a part
time Instructor and declared the
band a worthy adjunct to the in-
Biuuiion. Chairman dinger and
Director Neer, however, asserted
the board, ia pledged to aa econ
omy program and the band Is one
service which could be eliminated
without disaster to the system.
Dr. Pound retorted with the
statement that employment of a
part time band instructor at sal-
t? 9.Irg5e8.ted b PPHcants. of
from 125 to $50. would be a sav
ing over last year.
Without voting, the directors
set the matter over until the Sep
tember 27 meeting.
A" 00n s the state supreme
court bands down its decision of
constitutionality of the tuition
law, work on the budget will be
resumed, the board announced.

EVIDENCE
REVEALED
Woman Shot, Then Buried
Under Concrete; Man's
Suicide Follows
PLYMOUTH, Mass., Sept. 16
(AP) The body of Mrs. Edith
Dubois, of Tuckahoe, N. Y., was
found buried under the concrete
floor in the basement of her sum
mer cottage late today, five hours
after her husband, Charles E. Du
bois, 39 had committed suicide.
The body was uncovered by
searchers acting under the orders
of John V. Sullivan, assistant dis
trict attorney, to tear down the
cottage at Great Herring Pond if
necessary to find the woman's
body.
New construction at the cottage
had aroused the curiosity of Sul
livan. The body was found buried
under two inches of concrete and
crushed stone.
Police tonight, from evidence in
their possession, constructed an
awesome picture of the events
preceding Mrs. Dubois' death.
From a Mrs. Gillott, wife of a
New York Jeweler, police learned,
they said, that Mrs. Dubois had
written "Charles" was acting
queerly, spending nearly all of his
time in the cellar, and remaining
strangely silent when he came up
from his work in the basement.
She wrote also, police said, that
he apparently no longer loved her
and that he was "like a crazy man
over that other woman."
Police learned also, they said,
that while the body of his wife
lay in the improvised tomb below,
Dubois entertained gayly In the
cottage. On the night of Labor
day, they said, a merry party took
place.
Carson Not Sure
Of Next Move in
Aurora Bank Case
District Attorney J. H. Carson
yesterday was considering wheth

Schwab of Aurora, would be
brought to trial on the remaining
indictments out against them in
regard to their management of the
Aurora State bank and Willamette
Valley Mortgage company. He had
not reached a decision.
That cost of the trial might
have some Influuence in the mat
ter Is deemed possible. The first
trial, in which Giesy and Schwab
were acquitted, cost the county
$709.20 in uncompleted estimates,
and the grand jury, $102.04
Tghese amounts raise the over

CITY TURNED DM

May However Borrow U. S.
Money to Construct
Water System
The City of Salem cannot bor-
row from the Reconstruction FI-
nance corporation using its own
bonds as collateral, $800,000
with which to purchase the Oregon-Washington
Water company
here. J. F. Coleman, member of
the engineers' advisory board,
has advised Mayor P. M. Gregory.
However, assurance that applica
tion for a SI. 000.000 loan to fl
n ice new construction for the
plant, once that city had acqu!
It. would be considered, was con-
tained In Coleman's letter to the
irayor.
Coleman points out the legal
inability of the corporation to
make loans to anyone for the ac
quisition of property, ne cites
the intent of the R. C. F. law to
make loans for new work and
says: "Perhaps If you may raise
funds from some other source for
the intended purchase, your ap-
plication for a loan to be applied
to the new construction would be
more in line.
Application for an R. C. F. loan
was maae several monms ago oy
City Attorney Trindle acting up
on the mayor's wishes. The ap
plication sought $1,800,000 of R.
