TOCOP
$1O,5OO SLICE IN
POLLT TAX DRIVE
TreaSurers Share and Added
Charges Nearly Equal
Principal Amount.
MAY SEIZE FURNITURE

Agents of County Treasurer Ralph
A. Lemcke are attempting to collect
fees totaling approximately S10,500
from nearly $1,000 male voters Of
Marion County who are said to be
delinquent in paying their 1919 poll
tax.
Under the system used by Mr..
Lemcke in collecting approximately
$4,000 in delinquent poll taxes for
1919, the costs and fees nearly equal
the 50 in each case of delinquency.
The delinquent's cost and penalty is
figured as follows:
Tax-$2.32, which includes interest.
COsts-5O cents demand fee, which
belongs to the treasurer; 40 cents for
constable fee and 10 cents "a mile.
COUNTY TREASURER
GETS HIS SLICE.
For example, a voter living in the 15OC
block on Samoa street who is delinquent
WIZ -eceIve a notice made up as fol
lows:
Tax, $2.32 and costs $175; total, $l.07.
In this case the costs are made up
as follows:
Fifty cents demand fee. which goes to
the treasurer; S. cents for mileage and
40 cents for constable fees, according to
an Interpretation made of delinquent tax
notice to a voter living on Samoa street.
If the total amount Of delinquency is
collected by the agents of Mr.. Lemcke
the treasurer will receive the snug total
Of approximately S10,5OO as his bit He
is entitled, according to the State board
Of accounts, to receive a 5O-cent demand
fee
Following inquiries from citizens who
could not understand how the fees and
costs In many cases totaled more than
the 81 poll tax. a copy Of a notice to a
poll tax delinquent living In the 1900
block on Samoa street was taken to
the State board Of accounts.
1t was explained at the board Of ac-
counts office that the treasurer was en-
titled to a 80 cent demand fee and 10
cents n mile for the person serving the
demand; and the treasurer has added a
Accent constable fee, which the statutes
permit.
1t was stated at the Treasurer's of
fee that the delinquent is being charged

Important Legislation Pend
ing Threatened by Lack
of Time.
NAVY BUDGET IN DANGER

I WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Con-
ggress turned in to the home stretch
today in a neck and neck race against
time.
With but ten legislative days re
naming before the present session
ends. there was every indication that
some of the important legislation
now on the books will never reach
completion
In the Senate the big task is the pass
ing of appropriation bills, which already
have been passed by the House. There
are rumblings which forbOde I'll for
some Of these appropriation bills, par
ticularly the naval appropriation bill
Senator BOrah OF Idaho has announced
his intention to continue the fight to
force a conference on disarmament and
has given notice that he will discuss
the naval appropriat tion bill at length
This may lead to a Senate row which
will endanger the passage Of the bill at
this session.
ARMY BILL DEBATE
To DELAY PROCEDURE.
The army appropriation bill, providing
for reduced military forces, will also be
the subject of considerable debate and
viii retard any rapid progress by the
upper body in disrOsing of the jam Of
legislation now steadily mounting.
Senator Penrose, chairman of the Sen
ate Finance Committee. intends TO have
the soldier bonus bill reported to the
Senate this week and hopes TO get action
on it before the close of the session, but
jnasmuch as this bill has been the sub
ooN oF ie bN
of its rapid passage and If it finally
comes TO a vote it is not likely to get
out Of conference during the present ses-
sion

HOUSE HASTENS WORK

Advancement to second reading Of
the bill introduced by Representative
parker, Boone County, providing ror
Capitalization of control of the
States three higher educational In
stitutions; indefinite postponement
of the Willis bill, providing for re-
peal of the primary election law;
passing to second reading, Of bill
which extends the time of public
utilities to surrender their franchises
to the Public Service Commission,
and killing of the bill to abolish the
banking and insurance departments
of the State, occupied the morning
session of the House of Representa-
tives today.
Discussion of majority and minority
report on the bill to permit 4 township
trustee to issue transfers to pupils to at
tend private schools in the same or an
other township resulted In a heated clash
between Representatives Oscar A. Ahl-
gren Lake County. and George w Sims,
Vigo County.
Representative Sims charged that for
the last two weeks lobbyists from Fair
mount Academy, in an effort to have the
bill passed, were sitting in the seats OF
Representatives during sessions of the
House.
CHARGES SIMS
LACKS BACKBONE"
Representative Ahlgren charged Sims
with lacking backbone" ugh to stand
what was right.
1t was necessary for the Speaker to call
the two Representatives. to order.
Passage OF the Knapp bill extending
the time for public utilities to surrender
their franchises TO the public service COM
mission until July 1, 1923, would affect
the Indianapolis Street Railway Com
pany.
Representative Henry Abrams, Marion
County, opposed passage OF the blll De
claring the city officials and people OF
indianapolis do not wish the street car
company to surrender its franchise He
declared the people desire TO regulate
the street car company themselves. II
the franchise is surrendered. he said, 1t
will mean increased rates and the loss OF
much revenue to the city.
Representative Claude A. Smith de-
clared there is no justice In mak%g the
utilities OF some counties come under
provisions OF the public service commis-
sion act and leaving a large corporation
OF indianapolis to operate under city
franchise.
Mr. smith was asked by Mr.. Abrams
II It was wrong to have other companies

be wrong to place the Indianapolis

on Tiger Verdict.

Charles Middaugh, after being formally
sentenced to serve six months and pay
a fine of $500 by Special Judge Harry
Chamberlin in Criminal Court on blind
tiger charge, Immediately prayed an ap-
peal to the Supreme Court. The court
fixed his bond at s., 500. Thomas Shroyer,
Harry Schofield and Pandeu Shanefr
signed the appeal bond. which was ap
proved by the trial court.
Middaugh was found guilty by a jury
last week on a charge of operating a
blind tiger on an appeal from the city
court. 1t appears that Aiddaugh intends
to run the gauntlet of the courts before
he permits institutional doors to- close
on him.
Mrs. Seeman Cook, who was fined 500
and sentenced to thirty days in jail on
charge of operating a blind tiger, also
filed notice in Criminal Court of her in
tentions to appeal She was released
from Jail on an appeal bond of $1.50O.
which was signed by her brother, Charles
Cook, as surety.

Accounts Board Report
Is Demanded In Senate

1t was explained last week that the
report was being delayed because exam
iners of the board had been unable TO
get in touch with Mr.. Klauss. The law
requires that a copy Of the report shall
be turned over to the person examined
before it is made public 1t was stated
that Mr.. Klauss was out of the city and
would return last Saturday.
The situation is similar to the one
that brought forth the belated report
on~ the highway commission last week
Governor Warren T. McCray had held
up the findings of the board until threat
Il Il Legislative resolution asking it's pub
,ication forced him to act.
Governor McCray admitted he had re-
eived a copy of the report several days
ago. He said he had not had time to
look it over and that he believed Mr.
Klauss had not yet seen 1t. He said Mr.
klauss returned to Indianapolis Saturday
night and that he would receive an OPP
rortunity to go over the report before
1t is relea sed He said he did not know
how soon 1t would be made public be-
cause this depended ON when Mr.. Klauss
would go over 1t.

SHELBY STREET
HEARING UPSET
BY HOT CHARGES
South Siders Make Open AS
sertiOn That Interests
Block Opening.
ACTION AGAIN DELAYED

After south side citizens favoring
the opening of Shelby street from
Washington to Maryland street and
representatives of corporations claim
ing they would be damaged thereby
had engaged in a bitter word battle
the Board of Public Works today
postponed final action on the resolu-
ton for the improvement until March
13. It was the fourth time final
action has been postponed.
Mayor Charles W. Jewett sat with the
board at the hearing and took up the
gauntlet flung down by south side cid-
zens. who charged that he has not given
their section fair representation in his
appointment Of members of the various
boards.
Charges that special interests" were
behind the movement to block the open
ing Of Shelby street and to open and
widen Cruise street instead were flung by
the south siders. They named the Penn
sylyania Railroad, the Frank NJ. Dell Coal
Company and the Standard Oil Company
as being among these special Interests"
Representatives Of these corporations de-
MED the charges.
J. B. DOwney, Thomas Callahan and
Hugh D. O'COnneu, a committee ap
pointed at a mass meeting of residents
Of the southeastern section of the city
several weeks ago, fled a written state
ment in which the Shelby street plan
was favored. This statement was in
plain language and provoked most Of
the bitter discussion which followed its
reading by Mr. DOwney.
DECLARE COST
MISREPRESENTED.
The statement set out that opponents
Of the Shelby street opening have OBJ
tanned signatures to a remonstrance
against it by representing that the i'm
prOyement would cost each property own
er within the district to be assessed for
It as much as $3.50. The committee de-
MED this, asserting the entire cost of
obtaining the ground necessary for the
street would be not more than 5000 or
$4,000, which would be apportioned
among a thousand or more property
owners.
Frank A Davidson, attorney for the
Pennsylvania Railroad, made a long
speech in which he declared the commit
tee was in error on its estimate Of the
