BALKAN QUAKE
Towns, Villages Wrecked
in Macedonia.
By United Press


BELGRADE, Jugoslavia, March 9.
The rough mountain country Of
Macedonia which overlaps the from
tiers Of Jugoslavia, Greece and Bull
garia has been devastated widely by
three days Of the most severe earth
quakes which have occurred in many
years in the Balkans.
The full extent of the disaster
still is uncertain today, although Of
fetal advices from more than a
score Of towns in the three coun-
tries revealed vast damage and
heavy loss of life.
The official death toll was placed
at around fifty, but unofficial ad-
vices placed the number at more
than $50 and various reports indi-
Gated it is considerably higher.
Towns and villages were wrecked
or greatly damaged. There was q
shortage Of water in some districts
and an immediate danger of greater
suffering through lack of food,
clothing, shelter and medical atten-
ton throughout the stricken region.
King Alexander, whose royal es-
tates at Denlir- Capita were dam
aged, went to the scene of the
quakes, to take personal charge Of
relief work.

SEE ANSWER TO
REDISTRiCTING
PUZZLE TODAY
Conference Plan May Not
Be Accepted by Both
Houses.

Solution Of the Chinese puzzle Oh
reapportioning the present thirteen
congressional districts into twelve
was expected to be reached by the
joint house and senate conference
committee late this afternoon, ii
was learned.
But whether the new alignments
will be satisfactory to members OF
both houses is the problem now
members declared. Some plan must
be reached by the close Of this legis-
lative day or Indiana may have to
elect its congressman at large and
then have their legality challenged
Realignment plans when COM
pleted, committee members said,
would, in all probabilities provide
for five G, o. P. districts, four DEM
ocratic and three doubtful.
Have Worked Three Days
Today was the third consecutive
day devoted to an attempt to reach
a solution. The conference broke ur
Saturday and Sunday night without
agreement, but each member pre-
sented his idea today and an at
tempt is being made to obtain plan
from these which will be satisfactory
to the majority Of the two Repub-
licans and two Democrats who con-
StitUte the committee.
Practical agreement has been
reached on what has amounted to
two bones of contention: One, that
Lake county shall constitute dis
trict by itself; and the other, that
Marion county with its 422,00C
population, must be divided.
The last step will be taken over
the protests Of Marion county rep
reSentatives who may be strong
enough to block adoption Of the
conference report.
Three Way Split Proposed
Latest suggestion is that Marion
county be split three ways. with
Center township composing one
district; Perry and Decatur town
ships joined to the district to the
south, and the remaining townships
be divided with Hancock county to
form another district.
This is meeting much opposition
among friends Of Representative
Louis Ludlow, who feels that his
strength would be curtailed greatly
by such q partition.
Although Ludlow has not been
here during the reapportionment
deliberations three Democratic rep
resentatives have been on the spot
watching what occurs. They are
Arthur Greenwood, Second district;
John w. Boehne, First, and Glenn
Griswold, Eleventh.
Guards Colleagues Interests
Greenwood is fighting any at
tempt to include in the counties Of
his new district, another containing
the home Of an incumbent repre-
sentative, while Boehne, who is sure
to fare rather well under any di-
vision, is safeguarding the interests
Of those members who can not be
present.
It is pointed out by some lead
ers that unless an agreement is
reached by the close OF. the session
some time in the wee hours Of
Tuesday morning, the entire fabric
Of the state party organization
might crunble, as the state lead
ers are elected by the district chair
men and vice-chairnen.
Members of the conference COM
raittee are Senators Ralph Adams
(Rep), chairman; Representative
Clarence o. Schlegge Denl), vice
chairman; Representative Roy
Street (Rep), and Senator James
B. Brewster Dern.), secretaries.

INCOME LEvIES
IN DEADLOCK OF
LAST DAY RUSH
Failure to Pass Tax Bills
May Cause Special
Session.

Personal and corporate income tax
bills gasped for breath today as they
were caught in the legislative dead
lock between Indiana's Republican
senate and Democratic house.
They we're accorded only the
faintest hope of enactment and be-
cause Of Democratic and farm bloc
insistence upon their enactment {,
they became factors in the threats
Of special season..
Crowded galleries were expected
for this afternoons crucial debates
and for the finish tonight when de-
lays occasioned by the enrolling
final tipping Of last minute bills,
gives opportunity for the traditional
round Of farewell speeches, gift pre-
sentations and horse play"
The clocks will be stopped at mid
night, to give added time for clear
ing up last minute action.
The pulse of the personal income
tax bill engaged chief attention to-
day Of the average Hoosier citizen.
While it's death seemed only a
matter Of hours, a coalition of farm
leaders of both parties and Of
Democrats planned resusciatory
measures.
Corporate Tax Fails
The personal income tax bill has
passed both houses, but awaits con-
ference agreement on senate amend
ments which lowered the maximum
rate Of per cent on incomes more
than $4,000 to 4 per cent, and
lowered exemptions so as to lay a
heavier burden on the small salary
man and wage Garner.
Representatives Virgil Simmons
(Dem., Adams and Wells) and H. H.
Evans (Rep., Henry are the house
conferees. Senate conferees were to
be named by Lieutenant Governor
Edgar D. Bush this afternoon.
The corporate income tax bill
which passed the house with per
cent rate, failed, % ayes, 25 noes, to
receive a constitutional majority in
the senate Saturday, after being
amended to contain a IL per cent
rate.
Senate income tax foes declare
they will deliberately walk out and
break quorum if further attempt
at passage is attempted in the upper
house.
Fifteen Bills Wait in Senate
This threat brought from Speaker
Walter Myers the announcement
that it is mandatory upon the con-
ference committee on the personal
income tax bill to write into it a
tax or corporations
Among fifteen house bills awaiting
third reading in the senate are the
voters registration bill, Democratic
platform measure, and measures ex-
tending for four more years the g.
mill levy for the Indiana World War
Memorial; prescribing the salaries
for prosecutors throughout the
state; placing operators OF motor
trucks under public service commits
sion Jurisdiction; requiring appli-
cants for automobile and drivers
licenses to exhibit poll tax receipts
before the licenses are issued; au-
thorizing injunctions to prevent I'M
licensed dentists from practicing,
and continuing the 45 per cent ratio
for state school aid while placing
supervision of state aid funds with
the state board of accounts.

The fight for salary increases
for Government employees in

body concentrates it's energies on
pushing through the drought re-
lief compromise.
Action Is ReScinded
AS the Senate prepared to vote

fact that the report contains

in inserting the salary increase
item in the appropriation bill.
The Interior bill carries only

This will mean the loss of
approximately $4,500,O00, which

SURVEY
To BE MADE

An extensive survey into the
food needs of undernourished
children will be started Monday
in all public schools, according to
instructions outlined by Dr. Frank
w. Ballou, Superintendent , OF
schools.
It is expected that the survey
will be completed by Wednesday
so that a definite report may be
submitted to the Board of Educa-
ton at its meeting.
Principals have been asked by
DR.. Ballou to determine how
many children come to schools
without breakfast, how many
have no provisions for lunch, how
many children are being provided
food at the schools, who is
making the necessary provisions
and how much it costs to feed
them.
Dr.. BalIOu recently declared
that he had authentic infOrma-
tiOn to-. the effect that teachers
have been bearing the burden of
feeding the underfed children.
A typical and ungraded chill
dren will be particularly affected
by whatever action is taken in
the matter, Walter B. Patterson,
assistant superintendent of
schools in charge of special &C
tiVitieS, declared today.
The condition of some Of the
children in the southeast and
southwest sections of the city is
particularly needy, he said.
