Ice Cream Soda
Cheaper NOW at
the Drug Store
Fountain OWnerS Revise Scale
of Prices for Taxed
Soft Drinks.

A new scale of prices went into effect
at soda fountains In Indianapolis drug
stores today. It's a scale that everybody
will approve Of, too, for now Mr.. and
Mrs. Indianapolis and little Indianapolis
can walk up to the fountain and plank
down Is cents, receiving therefor one
perfectly good ice cream soda OF any
flavor that may be desired. Heretofore
1t has been necessary to riddle, past all
hope Of recognition, a fourth nickel to
obtain that delicacy.
Here's what has happened, according
to John A. Hook, president and general
manager Of the Hook Drug Company,
and member Of the Indianapolis Drug
Association:
Druggists have decided to absorb the
war tax charged by the Government on
certain soft drinks. But the law says
the consumer must pay the tax, so the
cost Of the soda is put at 13 cents, which
the druggist gets, plus 2 cents, which
goes to Uncle Sam. and the purchaser Is
charged only Is cents, instead Of II cents
as formerly The new scale Of prices
applies to sundaes, matted milk drinks
and others upon which the war tax IS
charged.
The decision to lower the cost OF taxed
drinks was made at a meeting of the In
dianapolis Drug Association at the Cham
ber Of Commerce last Friday" Mr.. Hook
said, "and 1t is being done simply to
satisfy the public demand for lower
prices not because a decrease in our
expenses warrants a reduction at this
time. AS a matter Of fact sugar, and
ice cream. which dropped 10 cents on the
gallon today, are the only two items
which we are now able to obtain cheaper
than formerly. And this reduction has
been more than Offset by the high prices
Of syrups, paper cups and other items
necessary In the preparation and serving
Of fountain drinks"

ASSAIL RAID METHODS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-DeniaI by
President Wilson Of a commutation OF
sentence for Eugene v Debs Socialist
leader, did not discourage friends from
appearing again before the Senate Judici-
ary Committee today to urge amnesty
for him and others convicted Of viola
tons Of the espionage, draft and other
wartime acts.
Nor did the fact that It WAS Attorney
General A. Mitchell Palmer who recon-

from attacking the methods employed by

called red raids"

Francis Fisher Kane, former district at

ment for the overthrow Of the American
Government, Kane said.
Kane resigned his office after he dis
agreed with Palmer as to how the

In Philadelphia, he explained.
THE wholesale raids Of last January
met with the results that might have
been expected" Kane said. "Out of some
1000 people arrested only a few hundred
have been actually deported, and while
the Government can be rightly blamed
for needlessly breaking into the peaceful

COUNTY UNIT
ROAD CHANGE
Is DEFEATED
Cam Bill for Amendments
Postponed Indefinitely
by Senate.
JUGGLING IS CHARGED

An attempt to make radical amend
ments to the county unit road law
was defeated in the Senate today
when consideration of the Cam bill
was postponed indefinitely by vote
of 81 to 13.
The bill, as originally introduced, pro-
vided that counties should pay 90 per
cent of the cost of the county unit roads,
that townships should pay 25 per cent
and that abutting property owners
should pay the remaining 25 per cent.
Under the present law the entire cost OF
the highway is borne by the counties.
The bill also provided that roads should
be built on petition of 200 property own
or instead Of fifty and that a majority
Of owners Of abutting property might by
remonstrance, prevent the construction Of
roads.
When the bill was called up for Sec
ond reading it was amended by Sena-
tor Howard A. Cam of Frankfort to
provide that counties shall pay 70 per
cent of the cost of roads, that property
owners pay 10 per cent and that town
ships pay 10 per cent.
The motion for indefinite postpone
Cravens of Madison.
SAYS PROVISIONS
CONFISCATORY.
Senator Cravens, in connection with his
motion, declared the provisions of the
bill would be confscatOry, as many
farmers would not be able to pay the
price Of constructing roads. Senator
James H. Humphreys Of Linton declared
the bill was unfair and would near the
elimination Of certain roads in the north
ern part of the State. He said the roads
are for the use Of the general public and
should be paid for by the general pub
lie.
Senator c. Leroy Leonard Of Silvea
Lake declared the proposed amendments
would make the county unit law inopera-
tive.
Senator Cam pointed out that the bill
corrects some Of the errors in the county
unit law brought about by reputed
Juggling. He declared that If any laws
he is interested in are juggled as they
are going through the various stages OF
passage he will see that the guilty per-
sons are punished.
The general appropriation bill was re.
turned to the Senate from printers with.
out the amendments recommended By
the Finance Committee and was ordered
reprinted
The bill was to come up for second
reading today, but now will lay over
until tomorrow.
An attempt was made by Senator J,
Fred Masters Of Indianapolis to bring
about the amendment of a bill providing
that the State board Of health shall test
all medicines sold as cures for tubercu-
loSis. Senator Masters, in a minority
/ committee report, sought to make the
provision that the board of health be
given the power to supervise the manu-
facture and sale Of all patent medicines
and that it be unlawful to print any un-
true statement on the wrappers or pack
ages or in advertisements concerning the
qualities Of the medicine. The motion
was lost.
