Hits Limitation Statute

I recommend that this suggestion
receive such consideration at your
hands as the gravity of the situa-
ton demands. I especially would
call your attention to the crime OF
holdup and banditry, for which
there can be no extenuating cir
cunstances. Regardless OF where
perpetrated, it must be in its very
nature the result Of criminal
malicious generalization. To dis
courage the preparation of this and
other crimes in Indiana I recon-
mend that the statutes controlling
criminal procedure be so simplified
and reformed as to avoid unreason-
able. nonsensical, and 1ndefenslble
delays in the trial of criminals.
I recommend that unless re-
strained by constitutional bounds,
you amend the present statute OF
limitations so that it shall not ap-
ply to public officials, either cleo
tive or appointive, charged with
malfeasance in Office or any other
crime committed during the tenure
of their official relations, to impress
more thoroughly upon them the
seriousness of official misconduct or
dereliction and more effectively pro-
tect the interests and welfare of the
people of our state.
I further recommend that you
provide penalties for banditry and
holdups the same as that now pro-
vided for murder in the first degree,
thus insuring society proper pro-
lection from these outrages.
1t should be your purpose and I
recommend that by the enactment
of this provision in the law you serve
notice on those criIninally inclined
that Indiana is not a profitable
place to practice their profession.
Agriculture generally is recognized
as the country's basic industry. This
interest has not received its just
proportion of our general prosper
ity, as result of which there is
universal depression in this indus
try within our state.
This subject is now being consid-
cred from a national legislative

SNOW HAMPERS
STATE TRAFFIC
Rail and Bus Behind
Schedules.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
With three-inch blanket of snow
and Sleet covering the ground,
traffic throughout Indiana moved
cautiously today.
Reports from various sections of
the state today said that trains,
lcterurban cars and buses were
running behind schedules due to the
slippery condition of rails and high
ways.
In Indianapolis, four persons were
killed at a train crossing, for which
was blamed the slippery condition
of road is placed.
Buses operating from Indian
apolis to Detroit, Mich, and other
northern points reported they had
encountered great difficulty on ac-
count of the heavy fall of snow.
Interburban cars operating from
Indianapolis to Indiana points were
unable to keep on schedules on ac-
count of bad tracks and in some
instances snow drifts which made
high speed hazardous.

therefore, recommend that this
feature of the law be not disturbed.
The tax commission as provided
by law has submitted to this as
sembly an exhaustive report, in
GLIDING it's recommendations, and
each member of this body. as I am
informed, has been furnished a
copy thereof.
I recommend that you consider
carefully it's contents, with the
view to such action as your judg-
ment dictates to be proper, in your
efforts to provide for more equit-
able distribution of the burdens
necessarily imposed by taxation. I
recommend that especial considera-
ton be given to the necessary re-
forms in this law as recommended
by the tax commission.

Economy Is Advocated

It is a well-eStablished and gen.
orally recognized fact that state
governmental costs constantly are
increasing, on account of the great
increase in state requirements and
it's obligations to society and its
consequent responsibilities therefor
as created by legislative enactments
in the past.
AS an additional and specific con-
tributing cause for the constant and
unavoidable increase in state gov
ernmentaI costs, we are reminded
of the almost alarming increase in
the population of our various cor
rectional, benevolent, penal and
other institutions who become
wards of the state, whose care, GUS
tody, control and maintenance
must be provided for, and no right
minded citizens of the state desires
to escape this responsibility and
our obligations to our unfortunates.
It is further a we'll recognized
fact that the cost of local govern
ment in the various units or sub
divisions of our state government
constantly is increasing at even a
greater and more alarming rate,
because of the constant and in
creasing demands being made upon
the various agencies of our local
governments.
1t becomes your duty properly
to safeguard and protect society
as far as reasonably possible
from unwarranted expenditures
and extravagancies, to prevent the
cost of our government from in
creasing to a point confiscating the
income of the taxpaying public.

viewpoint, and I recommend that
this assembly keep in mind the
probable needs of cooperation anc
support whenever and wherever
possible in this respect.
I suggest for your consideration
the necessity for agricultural re-
search and education as among the
essentials to the solution Of this
great problem.
There must necessarily be applied
to this industry under present con-
ditions the most scientific methods
of farm operation and management
as a contribution to its rehabilita-
ton, as well as the adoption of more
scientific methods of marketing.

Contest Move to Protect Domestic
Producers.
BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. f5.-Cuba
and Cuban sugar interests in this
country are preparing to wage a
vigorous defensice battle against
any increase in tariff duties on
sugar imports entering the United
States.
Domestic sugar interests demand
ing an increase in duty of 8 cents a
pound on sugar is necessary for pro-
lection of the United States sugar
producers are certain OF meeting
determined opposition not only from
United States sugar magnates with
Cuban interests but also from the
Cuban government itself through
the customary channels Of diplo-
macy.
Cuba enjoys a preference OF 20 per
cent in the American market and
is the only foreign country shipping
here.
The Cuban government already
has moved to place its views re-
garding any increase in tariff be-
fore the authorities here.

Asks Primary Change

I recommend that you give con-
Sideration to the classification and
Standardization Of specifications Of
public buildings. I especially would
refer to public school buildings
wherein school units with prac-
tically the same school population
be standardized and classified, to
avoid the expense ola multiplicity of
plans and specifications throughout
the state for schools reasonably uni
form in their requirements.
I recommend that the present
primary law be SO amended that in
the county primary elections dele
gates be elected for the following
purposes:
1. For the nomination of United
States senators and all state officers
in state convention.
2. For the nomination of represent
ativeS in congress in delegate con-
ventions, held in their respective
districts.
And that the preferential fea-
lures of the present primary law
relating to Presidents Of the United
States be eliminated.
In conclusion, ladies and gentle
men, may 7 be permitted to inform
you that the general financial con-
dition of our state government is
very. creditable. The state as a

1t is my earnest hope that at the
close of this session, by wise and
constructive legislative enactments,
proper cooperation and intelligent
action throughout the session, you
will have established most envia-
BILE record; that the purposes
prompting you will be only those of
an earnest attempt to raise to the
highest possible level the standard
of efficiency in our state government,
and thus reflect signal credit upon
each of you individually, the state
of Indiana, and this administration.
I wish to give you the positive as
surance that in the solution of
your most perplexing, intricate and
difficult problems, I shall be graft

Those who suffer from asthma and hay
fever will be gratified to learn that at
last science has succeeded in discovering
the, basic cause of these two stubborn
maladies.
This discovery disproves the old theory
that asthma is due solely to climatic con-
ditions and hay fever entirely to pollen
The discovery of the real cause of these
diseases has proved that these are merely
aggravating factors and that the basic
cause lies in the individual himself.
Fortunately for all who suffer from these
diseases a. way has also been found to

symptoms. as has been done in the past.

Man, who is at the Hook Drug

Cases like that of Mr.. Merle J..

Read the statement of M. Brown,
as he told it to the KonJcla Man
few days ago:
"Not only has Konjola benefited
me to an amazing extent but it has
also given new strength and health
to my son, 6 years old. We were
both in rundown condition. I had
suffered for eight years from
stomach trouble, constipation and
many symptoms of stomach trouble.

him, and when he did eat, he al

He was subject to colds, failed to
sleep well and was becoming very
sickly boy. was very worried about
him.
"Konjola was so strongly recon-
mended to me that 1 decided to
give it a trial. I started taking it
first and gained amazing benefits
from it. My stomach and kidneys
were regulated, strengthened and
cleansed before I had hardly started
the treatment. I found that food

all aches and pains driven from my

PROBE DEATHS
OF 4 in CAR AT
Rail CROSSING
PreSt- Lite Employees Are
Killed Near Speed
way.

Coroner G. H. Keever today began
an investigation of the train-auto-
mobile crash at the Big Four Speed
way crossing Monday evening in
which four Prest-O-Lite company
employees were killed almost in
Stantly.
The crossing is directly in front Of
the Prest-O-Lite plant.
Two of the men killed had had
premonitions they would die there,
friends and relatives said.
The machine, a Ford sedan, driven
by Luther F. Poland, so, of 1910 East
Iowa street, came out of the plant
driveway into the path of the train,
a Big Four freight. Warning sig
nails at the crossing were working
witnesses said, and Engineer Frank
Parrish, 624 East Thirty ninth
street, stopped the train within 500
feet, according to Sheriff George L.
Winkler and deputies who investi-
gated.
Didn't Hear Whistle
Poland was partly deaf and prob
ably did not hear the train whistles,
it was believed.
All the occupants of the machine
were killed. Beside Poland they
were: John @. Mullen, Sc, of 910
Woodlawn avenue; Charles Meyer,
48, of 430 North Meridian street,
and Frank Glenn Ryker, 43, of 1922
Laurel street. The crash occurred
at $40 p. m. as the men we're on
their way home from work.
The auto was demolished and the
debris carried 100 feet on the en-
CINE tender. Several of the bodies
weer badly mutiliated.
Mullen, according to his widow,
had feared he would meet death at
the crossing in front of the plant
and frequently said, some day We'll
get ours at that crossing" He re-
peated the remark last Sunday after
returning from church. Besides the
widow, he is survived by a daughter,
Mrs. Marguerite Lahmann and a
granddaughter, living at his home.
He had worked at the Prest-O-L Lite
plant twenty-one years.
Premonition of Death
Meyer, who lived alone in an
apartment at 430 North Meridian
street, also frequently had expressed
a premonition he would be killed at
the crossing, according to others
living in the building. He is sur
yived by son, o. w. Meyer of
Webster Grove, Mo.
Poland, who had been employed
at the Prest-O-Lite seven years, is
survived by the widow, two children,
Francis May, 5, and Leila Janice, 3,
and a brother and three sisters.
Brief funeral services will be held at
the home Thursday noon followed
by services at the Edinburg Meth
odist church in the afternoon and
burial there.
Ryker is survived by widow and
three children, Caroline, Emma and
Herbert, Is, IL and 10 respectively.
