INSURANCE CASE
APPEAL SLATED
Issuance of NonaSSeSSabIe
Policies Held Legal.

Appeal to the supreme court of
a ruling of Superior Judge Linn D.
Hay, in which the issuance of nop-
assessable reciprocal insurance poll
cies was held legal, was being pre-
pared today by attorneys for Clar-
ence Wysong, state insurance COM
missioner.
Hays ruling made permanent an
injunction against Wysong prohibit
ing him from forbidding the sale of
such policies.
The decision was on suit brought
by the Automobile Underwriters.
Inc, attorneys in fact for the State
Auto Insurance Association, seeking
a temporary restraining order
against Wysong'S order. The re-
straining order was granted by Su-
perior Judge James M. feathers, and
the case later was venued to Hays
court.
In reading his opinion, requiring
about one hour, Hay held that the
whole question of the case is "has
the state auditor the power to re-
woke or withhold license to do busi-
ness under the law of reciprocal in
surance as long as reserve is
maintained and the laws Of the state
are folIoWed?"
mo provisions of the statute has
been violated by the plaintiff, and
it is assumed that the reserve pro-
vtded must be maintained by I'M
limited assessment of the sub
Scribers.
"Those who join the association
do so voluntarily and also volun-
tari1y subscribe to- all conditions
and limitations" Hay held.
Suit of the Iroquois Underwriters,
Inc, against Wysong, based on the
same premises cited in the case de-
cided by Judge Hay, was taken off
the federal court calendar today at
request of attorneys.

Several Measures, Likely to
Renew Tempest, Up
Next Week.
B0RAH STARTS ACTION
Prison Bills Are Scheduled
Early in House and Sen
ate Program.
BY KENNETH G. CRAWFORD
United Press STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3-The pro-
hibition tempest stirred up by Sena-
tor Borah CRep., Idaho) during the
holiday recess is expected TO sweep
into the house wing Of the Capitol
next week when congress recon-
venes.
Several measures, likely to pro-
woke a renewal of debate between
vets and drys, are scheduled for
early consideration by the house and
its committees.
Chairman Smell of the rules COM
mittee plans TO start early hearings
on q senate bill to authorize ap-
pointment Of q joint congressional
committee to investigate adVisability
of consolidating prohibition enforce
ment agencies in the department Of
justice.
This measure passed the senate
almost without debate, but is ex-
pected to encounter rougher going
in the house Some drys there
doubt the wisdom of disturbing pro-
hibition enforcement machinery at
this time.
Prison Reform Bills Up
The five prison reform and ex-
tension bills reported favorably by
the judiciary committee and sched-
uled for consideration in the house
next Wednesday,, also may be a
fruitful source of prohibition de-
bate although the measures them
selves virtually are unoppoSed.
Drafted by the department of
justice and reported almost with
out amendment, the bills provide
for construction of two new penal
institutions at an estimated cost of
$7,000,000; establishment of a hos
pital for criminal insane; changes
in the parole system and liber-
alization of regulations governing
the administration of federal peni-
tentiarieS.
Representative La Guardia, (Rep
N. " in questioning Attorney Cen
eral Mitchell at hearings on the
prison measures, indicated the wet
bloc, while not opposing the legis-
latiOn, will undertake to use it as
an anti-prohibition argument.
Start of TuSSle
The real prohibition tussle will
start when the house takes up the
interior department appropriation
bill, which provides funds for the
gencieS now intrusted with enforce
ment. This may be several weeks
hence, as the appropriations COM
mittee plans to bring out the war
department supply bill next.
Ordinarily, the interior bill is the
first considered, but a fight within
the appropriations committee over
the size of the prohibition enforce
ment fund Is understood to be hold
ing it up at this session.
So far, Borah's blasts against pro-
hibition enforcement officials have
created but slight stir among house
members. Vets are not yet organ
lied for their offensive and drys are
silent, believing they can help their
cause most by a hands-off policy.
The wet bloc is scheduled to meet
Jan. 9 to formulate a program for
the session.

it is, so the gadget stops func-

w. H. Arnett, managing OIL
rector of the state chamber,
expresses a belief that 1880
business will materially sur
pass that of 1929. "Notwith-
standing the recent stock
market crash, good stocks are
in good demand and at honest
Values" Arnett declares.
A one hundred million dol
lar expansion program in the
Calumet district, affecting the
cities of Gary, Hammond,
Whiting and East Chicago, is
the forecast of the First Trust
and Savings bank of Ham
mond, based on official an
nouncements by the indus
tries which have planned pro-
grams for growth.
These industries include the Gary
works of the United States Steel
Corporation, which plans $50,000,-
600 expenditure; Inland Steel Com
pany. $10,000,000; track elevation at
Hammond, $10,000,000; insult utili-
ties interests, $10,000,000 for a new
substation; Gary Real Estate Board
building, $500,000; river and harbor
dredging, 100000, and proposed
apartment, home and business
buildings. $10,000,0o0.
Bankers Optimistic
Three Kokomo bankers expect
business to make gains not later
than the middle of 1880. Frank
McCarty, president Of the Citizens
National bank, declares: II expect
to see things moving in January. I
believe business will begin to pick
up soon after the first Of the year
and that from then on a steady in
crease will soon bring local produc-
ton to normal"
Ernest Saward of the First Trust
and Savings bank says:
after Feb. it is my guess that
Kokomo will swing into real year.
It may be a banner year."
'It will be but a few weeks after
the first of the year until most of
our people will be at work" accord
ing to George Davis, president Of
the Howard National bank, land by
the middle of the year there will
be plenty of jobs for all able bodied
persons"
officials of the Showers Brothers
Furniture Company, with Indiana
plants at Bloomington and Bloom
field, hold an optimistic view for
1890. The factories are now on full
time schedules with the prospect Of
continuing on that basis for at least
the first half Of the year. During
the year it is planned to build new
school building at Bloomington to
cost not less than 100000.
Muncie business men expect a
marked improvement after a period
of readjustment which they set as
requiring three months. During
1929, Muncie factories gave employ
ment to $4,000 persons and the total
pay roll for the year was $4,000, 900.
100 Given Work
Noblitt-Sparks Industries, Inc,
with plants at Seymour, Greenwood
and Columbus, started the new year
with an announcement that its force
at Columbus would be increased 100
Immediately. Former employees will
be hired.
Bluffton has demonstrated its
ability to overcome severe handi-
caps, including bank failures and
the closing Of the H. c. Bay piano
factory, by acquiring the Niemann
Furniture Manufacturing Company
to occupy the plant. The first group
Of employees is being hired and more
will be added as rapidly as
machinery can be moved from Chi
cago, former location Of the com
pany.
