MONDAY'S VOTE
Candidates for and Against
Continuing of Transport
System are Listed
Election in all Districts
Slated; Statesman to
Collect Returns
The most warmly contested gen
eral school election held in Mar
ion county in many years is an
ticipated tomorrow when 9 6 non-
high school districts go to the
polls to elect their members of the
newly constituted board of educa
tion for the county. Five mem
bers are to be selected, the non
high school territory being divid
ed into five tones each of which
will have a representative al
though each voter ballots for five
members. The candidate receiving
the highest total in each zone is
elected.
At Issue is the much-debated
question of high school bus trans
portation, the 1933 legislation
providing for the new board of
education, empowering that
group to determine whether bus
transportation shall be continued.
Should a majority of the board
unfavorable to transportation be
elected it is thought that pupils
of non-high school districts will
no longer be taken by bus to the
nearest high schools and no taxes
will be levied to reimburse the
high school district for operating
busses.
Heretofore furnishing of trans
portation, as well as tuition, has
been mandatory on the county
court. Now the matter is made
optional with the new board to be
elected Monday in all counties of
the state.
Election Is Held

LONDON. June 17 (API
News that the American govern
ment is not prepared to accept the
currency stabilization plan draft
ed at London by experts at the
world economic conference
changed the whole aspect of the
parley tonight, destroying the
generally accepted view that the
world monetary problem would be
the first to yield concrete results.
The American delegates heard
the report from Wahington un
officially as they returned from
the royal garden party at Wind
sor. Early editions of London Sun
day papers were already appear
ing with the headlines "Confer
ence Makes Progress" and assert
ing an arrangement for the stabil

Central bank officials, it a
said In conference quarters where
the news was heard, will have to
resume their private conversa
tions retarding currency stabil
ization at the earliest possible mo
ment and, while keeping in the
closest touch Vth official gov
ernment delegations, renew their
effort to hammer out an a-cord
for fixing currency values at a
fat'sfactory flpure.
; Rejection of Scheme
Brings General Gloom
The rejection of the currency
scheme by the American govern
ment brought gloom to the con
ference which Jiad closed Its first
week on a hopeful note in view
of the general expectation that the
dollar and the pound would soon
be subjected to control operations.
A proposal for a general all
around ten per cent reduction f
