MARSHAL Paoli Man Discovers That the Salary Is Too Small Frank S. Ream is Named Tom P. Reister of Paoli, Ind., one of Mark Storen's appointees as deputy U. S. marshal for Indiana, has quit his job. His resignation was handed to Mr. Storen today, and immediately afterward Mr. Storen announced the selection of Frank S. Ream, 25 West 27th Street, as Reister's successor. The change in the office force will be made March 1, Mr. Reister's resignation taking effect February 28. The appointment as deputy United States marshal at $1,200 a year is unprofitable, according to Mr. Reister who explains this is the cause of his resignation. He says his family prefers to live in Paoli rather than Indianapolis. With his family there and himself in Indianapolis, he finds his salary too small. He says he is going back to blacksmithing at Paoli. That was the business in which he was engaged before his election as sheriff of Orange County. Reister's term as sheriff expired January 1, last, and January 20 he was announced as one of Mr. Storen's appointees. Mr. Reister comes from the same congressional district as Mr. Storen.
