ASKS FARMERS
TO BACK FIGHT
FOR CONVENTION
Taylor Points to Need of
Care in Selection of
State Lawmakers.

Condemning the 1929 legislature
for it's Is per cent tax increase,
Lewis Taylor, director of the In
diana Farm Bureau Federation's tax
and legislative division, today ap-
pealed to farm bureau officers
throughout the state to favor leg
islative candidates in the primary
who advocate a constitutional con-
vention.
Members of the farm bureau
never were more interested in the
character of the men who are to
represent them in the next legisla-
ture than they are this year" Tay-
lor declared in a letter to officers.
1.-THE next legislature must pro-
vide means for raising more taxes
if the requirements of the state are
to be supplied.
1.-THE last legislature increased
state taxes more than Is per cent.
This means many thousands of dol
lars increase in taxes to the farm
ers of most counties. This will be
repeated again unless interested
citizens, rather than politicians, are
