pie. Ono OF the strongest opponents OF
the amendment is frmer Governor Sam
uel NJ. Ralstn.
The real center OF interest in the entire
amendment campaign has been amend
ment No. 10 which gives the Legislature
absolute control over matters Of taxation
Opposition to this amendment has been
strong and 1t is generally conceded 1t will
be defeated. In fact, persons who favor
the other amendments have expressed the
fear that this amendment will carry the
others with it to defeat. While orposi-
tion Is general, perhaps the most active
organization against the amendment is
the Indiana Taxpayers Protective Asso-
citation Of which former Governor Win
field T. Durbin Is president, former Gov
ernor Samuel n. Ralston, vice president,
and Representative Jacob D. MiltenbsrG-
er, secretary.
Their contention Is that the amend
ment is dangerous because 1t would give
the Legislature power to enact almost
any kind Of tax law and would lay II
open to strong influences from the out
side. Friends of the amendment declare
the Indiana tax system should be re-
vised, particularly as to classifying
property for taxation. Eben Fl. WoIcott
president Of the State Savings and Trust
Company; James Noll, attorney; former
Governor James P. Goodrich and Gov
ernor McCray have publicly expressed
their approval of the amendment

papers may vote. Germans and Aus
trians are excluded because they are
considered alien enemies until the
treaties OF peace with Germany and
Austria are ratified by the Senate.
The amendments with a few excep-
tions have brought out various con-
flicting views. The only one that ap-
pears to have met with general approval
is amendment No. which would require
all voters to be citizens of the United
States. It will do away with the pro-
vision that aliens who have taken out
their first papers may vote. This
amendment has the support Of the
American Legion, the League of Women
Voters, Governor Warren T. McCray, the
four former Governors of Indiana and
various other organizations and 1ndi-
viduals. Incidently, the amendment
recognizes the right Of women to vote.
WHAT THE SECOND
AMENDMENT WOULD DO.
The second amendment provides that
counties, townships and towns may be
classified for purposes of registration.
Persons in favor Of this amendment
point out the same system of registra-
t0in Is not needed in a small community
where there are few strangers and IS
needed In a city such as Indianapolis
whore all the voters could not be known
personally by election board members.
Os the other hand, it has been pointed
out that the amendment would leave the
way open to the Legislature TO do away
with registration entirely in some sec
tions and that this might lead to polit-
ical corruption.
The third amendment. which provides
for the enumeration Of voters, has met
with opposition. The present constitu-
tion provides that the vote shall be enum-
Grated every six yNars by township trus-
tees. This has led to a sextennial ex-
pense Of 100000. Under the proposed
amendment the enumeration would be
based on the vote for Secretary of State.
The fourth amendment provides that
the Governor may veto separate items in
! appropriation bills. This amendment was
| brought about by the fact that because
Of the very nature of an appropriation
bill the Governor has no veto power over
1t. He must either veto the entire bill
and usually leave the State without
money or let the bill become a law. Op-

ponents of this section hold that IT would
give the Governor too much power over
State finances.
Amendments number Eve, six and seven
provide that the terms of all county and
State officers shall be four years and
that the terms of prosecuting attorneys
shall be four years. 1t further provides
that none Of these officers will be per-
mitted to hold office more than four
years in any period Of eight years
Friends of the measure point out that
with two year terms and the reelection
custom office holders spend most of their
time seeking election instead of at
tending to JubHc affairs. Officials gen
orally appear to favor the amendments
There has been no great opposition to
this proposed change.
The eighth amendment provides that
the Legislature may fix qualifications for
lawyers. This amendment is backed by
an organization and individuals who
have sent tl<.r propaganda throughout
the State. One of the leaders in the
movement for the amendment is william
Lowe Bryan, president Of Indiana Uni
versity, The State board Of education
has gone on record in favor of it. Or
ganized efforts to bring about it's adOp-
tton were made by a State committee
with headquarters at Bloomin gton and
headed by Russell S. Williams. Tbs
amendment has been presented to the
people oftener than any other one, but
has never become a part of the constitu-
ton. Objection to the amendment on
the ground that the Legislature may
favor certain interests, thus forming y

fessiOn, has been raised.
NINTH AMENDMENT

The ninth amendment, which provides
that the office Of State superintendent VI

stead of appointive. has been one of tbs
storm centers Of the amendment cam
paign. 1t has been approved by the
State board of education and Is being

politics. Tho present system OF selecting
the State superintendent In Indiana IL de-
plorable, just as it Is in any other State
where he is selected by political party
as part Of the political party program.
'The election OF a State superintendent
by popular vote Is unsatisfactory under
the best conditions. In Wisconsin where
he Is elected In the spring as a non
partisan and is free from party organiza-
ton and party influences the system is
better than in Indiana, where he Is Sc
lected at q party convention, But In
Wisconsin the system would be better
with an elective State board Of eduea-

superintendent, just as the city school

PETTIJ Ohm FOR

SCHOOL LEADER
Former Purdue Man Indorses
Change in Amendment in
Reference to Educator.

Unqualified Endorsement OF the pro-
posed constitutional amendment to make
the office Of State superintendent Of pub
lie instruction an appOintive office Is
contained in a statement given out by
J. J. Pettijohn, assistant to the president
of the University Of Minnesota. Mr.. Pet
tijohn formerly was head of the exten-
sion department Of Indiana University.
However, Dr. Pettijohn is very firm in
his belief that the appointive power
should not be pacedl in the hands Of the
Governor. as tending to make the office
political IN character. He deplOres, in
this connection, the power given the State
board Of tax commissioners over the
finances of the public schools.
In part the statement is as follows:
I'm response to a letter from Indiana
relative to my opinion Of the proposed
amendment of the Indiana Constitution
providing for an appointive State superin-
tendent, I wish to state that I most
heartily indorse the amendment, for as
understand it. it makes it possible for the
Legislature to take the office Of State
superintendent out of politics directly
,snd indirectly. l cannot understand how
anyone who is an intelligent and sincere
friend Of education would oppose such
an amendment.
ITO make my position clear I wish to
state that / should certainly oppose the
appointment of a State superintendent
by the Governor 1 should also oppose
ths appointment of the State board of
education by the Governor. A State
board of education should be small, and
it should be elected by the people Of the
State. 1t should be elected on a non
partisan ticket, and at some time other
than during the partisan political cam
paign. Among the powers Of such a
State board Of education should be that
of appointing the State superintendent of
public instruction, or as he is frequently
called, the commissioner of education.
There are TWO recent tendencies
which should be avoided:
First, the Capitalization Of power IN
the hands Of the Governor, and
Second, the tendency to merge educa
tionai affairs with other governmental
affairs which are Of a political nature.
The power recently given tha +"-
mission of Indiana over the finances OF
the schools was a mistake for 1t lin
medistely threw many school cities into
