ways and means committee receives
a deputation from the union to

An invitation Wednesday night
to a dinner party at a downtown

the opposition of several members
of the committee.
Intimating that Paul Brown, ex-

a lobbyist, Representative Sam

sions of the assembly, vehemently
spurned the invitation.

OGDEN DENIES
BACKING new
GAMING BILL
Measure Would Increase
Power of Attorney
General.

A bill giving the attorney general
direct jurisdiction in all counties
over arrests and prosecution Of
gambling cases was not inspired by
his office, Attorney-General James
M. Ogden declared today.
The bill was introduced in the
senate Wednesday Afternoon by Sen
ator John S. Alldredge Rep., Madi-
SOM, who declared that it was be-
ing backed by Ogden.
II know nothing about the matter
and have made no plans for a
gambling crusade" the attorney
general explained today, when asked
if this was a new weapon, to be
used against alleged gambling re-
sorts in Floyd and Orange counties
including the dog racing track at
Jacksonville.
Drive Was Considered
Ogden conferred with the Orange
county prosecutor last summer and
announced then that in corpora
ton with local officials his office
might proceed against alleged
gaming at the famous resorts of
French Lick and West Baden.
About that time he failed to make
a case against the Jacksonville dog
racing and the track continued to
operate throughout the season with
great patronage.
So popular was its appeal that
most of the so-called "best citizens"
of the community made special
trip to Indianapolis to tell Ogden
they didn't want him to interfere.
With exception of liquor cases,
the attorney general can make ar
rests and prosecutions only when
his cooperation is asked by the
county prosecutor.
Would Increase Power
But the Alldredge bill would per-
NIT him to go after gambling, re-
CARELESS of the attitude of the prose
cutor or local law enforcement Of
ficers.
The bill provides $50 to $500 fines
and thirty days to six months for
persons convicted of keeping a
gambling place.

TWO OF THREE
MEASURES ARE
GIVEN HOUSE
One Provides Retail Sales
Levy With License on
All Stores.

Raising Issues of
Session.
COLLECT ON INCOMES

Two Of three voluminous bills
designed to eliminate the state tax
on real estate were tossed into the
house of representatives legislative
hopper today by the Indiana Farm
Bureau Federation.
Levying tax on personal in
come, corporate income and gross
retail sales, enactment of the trio
would supplant completely, it is
claimed, Indiana's traditional prep
Frty tax for state purposes.
Ihat the income tax on persons
and corporations would produce pos
sioly $l0,000,000 annually, was the
estimate given the state tax survey
committee when it investigated
Its feasibility before suggesting them
as possible remedies for the bur-
densome property tax.
Annual Fee Is Proposed
Estimates of from half that
amount upward are made for the
@CSe%AA ocsACO OoA WlA1C1l lldO OAOCA
the vigorous opposition Of mer-
chants and their associations
throughout the state.
AS introduced today, the retail
sales bill would levy an annual IL
cense fee of 81 on all stores in the
state, plus per cent of their gross
sales, payable monthly, beginning
Aug. is. The state tax board
would issue the licenses, receive the
tax and administer the act, placing
all revenues above cost of admin
istration in the states general fund.
1t would have broad powers in in
vestigating returns thought in error
or fraudulent.
Sentence Is Provided
A 10 per cent fee would be charged
for delinquent returns and a fine of
from 500 to 81, 900 assessed for false
reports, to which six months SEN
tence on the Indiana state farm
might be added, If the violator is an
individual.
A 8 per cent tax on the net in
come OF corporations is proposed In
one of the companion measures.
This act, too, would be administered
by the state tax commission which
would give an immediate appropria-
ton of $40, 900 to set up the plan.
Third Measure Is Ready
Prepared for introduction, but
withheld today, was the third COM
panion measure, for a tax on per-
sonal incomes. Lewis E. Taylor,
head of the farm bureaus tax de-
partment, said the bill will levy a
tax of per cent on the first $4,000
of annual income 2 per cent on the
next $1,000; 3 per cent on the next
$1,000 and per cent above $4,000.
All the bills were sent to the
house ways and means committee,
where they are expected to be re-
garded as the principal general fund

session.
