OFFICIALS FACING
SUMMER ON DUTY
Cabinet and Diplomatic Corps
Without Plans for LeaV-
ing Capital.

BY the Associated Press.
A "vacationless" Summer. without any
extended respite from Washington's
torrid temperatures. is the present pros
pect for most of the cabinet Of President
Hoover and the foreign diplomatic corps.
Instead Of leaving the Capital during
the Summer heat, high Government
officials expect to be hard at work upon
problems of state and none of them
plans any extended vacation. The Spe-
cial session of Congress has prevented
formulation of any such vacation ideas.
Only one cabinet member-Secretary
Wilbur of the Interior-will be away
from Washington for any lengthy period
under present plans. He will leave the
latter part of this week for the West,
where he will attend the oil conserva-
ton conference at Colorado Springs
June 10 and afterward make an inspec-
ton tour OF reclamation projects and
national parks in that section. He will
return in the middle of July.
Others Without Plans.
Six other cabinet members-Secre-
taries StimSon, Good, Lamont Mellon,
Hyde and Postmaster General Brown
Summer and all expect to stay close
to their jobs. Secretary Mellon has in
Dictated that if the governmental situa-
ton permits 1t he will take his usual
trip to Europe, which he has done for
a number of Summers
Secretary Adams. however. is not 60
ing to miss his usual Summer recreation
Of yachting. While not taking any ex-
tended leave, he will make frequent
brief trips to Boston. where he will
board his yacht for short cruises.
Nearly all the cabinet wives will be
out Of the city to escape the Summer
heat Secretary Davis has established
his family at Atlantic City, and he con-
templates making several brief visits
there. Attorney General Mitchell is
sending his family to White Bear Lake,
Minnesota, and hopes to pay them a
short visit if his duties permit.
Diplomats to Stay.
The foreign diplomats will remain in
the Capital as long as President Hoover
is here. When the President leaves, If
he decides to do so. an exodus OF the
diplomats will follow. Sir ESme How
ard, the British Ambassador and dean
of the diplomatic corps, meanwhile, has
rented a house for the Summer in a
nearby suburb, which is within short
motoring distance of the embassy.
It is unusual for the diplomatic corps
to remain in Washington, however, dur
ing the Summer. and the present season
will be their first experience of this sort
since the World War days. In fact. 10
years ago Washington was considered a
tropical post for diplomats, and for
that reason they were given extra allow
ances and longer vacations than In
other capitals in temperate climates.

The printing art has always relied
on plates of metal from which to print
but a recent invention contemplates
the use of paper for this purpose. They
are said to be as durable in every
way as metal plates and have the addi-
tional advantage of economy in the
manufacture and in the transportation
costs when it comes to shipment.

REGISTRATION :
DRAFT AWAITS
0. K. BY LESLIE
Governor Expected to Sign
Bill Passed After
Struggle.

Governor Harry G.. Leslie today
was expected to sign the permanent
registration bill.
The bill passed the house by a
narrow margin and made three
starts in the senate, failing on two
and only passing on the third after
parliamentary tricks had been dis
covered which would bring the bill
out after it apparently had been
shelVed.
Absent Voter Bill Killed
Another parliamentary battle en-
sued in the house when the bill
came back with senate amendments,
to which the obStructionist faction
in the house objected and it was
only through the parliamentary skill
of the Lake county delegation head
ed by Representative ]. Glenn
Harris, Gary, that the bill was saved
and the amendments concurred
with. Its author, Mrs. Zeola Misener,
representative from Laporte county
seconded Harris work.
Although this election measure
got by, the absent voters bill was
sent to indefinite postponement in
the senate.
The third principal election bill,
that modifying the primary, has
found haven in the Governors office
after a stormy passage, where it is
expected it will be signed. This bill
removes the President, senator and
Governor from the statewide pri-
mary.
Another bill now awaiting the
Governors signature is the Markun-
Wright anti-daylight saving meas
ure, which provides central standard
time as the basis ofsall court, banks
and public building time in Indiana.
Tax Measure Ponds
A bill providing an annual $4,000
appropriations for two years for
Purdue university in order that ex-
haustive inquiry into the possibili-
ties of Indiana, coal be made also
awaits the Governors signature.
After the senate concurs in the
Observation-Disclosures bill which passed
the senate and then the house Sat
urday, the bill will go to the Gov
ernor. This measure is designated
to prevent repayment of about
100000 refund on taxes in Marion
county.
The supreme court recently held
that the horizontal increase in 1919,
1920 and 1921 by the state tax board
is illegal and that the overcharges
should be repayed. Under the bill
passed this can not be done.
