COUNTY SALARY
MEASURE TO Be
LOST IN SENATE
Only Highly improbable
Suspension of Rules Can
Save Bill. I'd.

Reposing on the desk Of Lieu
tenant Governor Edgar D. Bush
today is bill, passed by the house
late Friday, which according to all
indications, is doomed to die "mute
and inglorious" death, "unwept, un-
honored" but due to be sung.
Yet its Importance has been
paramount to thousands of county
Office holders in Indiana, and has
been the subject of three house
caucuses, more than 100 amend
ments and split in the Democratic
house majority.
This bill of ill omen" is the
Democratic platform pledge uniform
salaries bill for county officials.
Introduced Feb. 13 it fingered in
the house with spaSmodic resuscita-
tions until late Friday afternoon,
when with but two days to go until
the end of the session, it was passed
61-27 with five Democrats voting
against it together with all Of the
Republican minority present.
Only by suspension of the rules
can the senate pass the measure,
and that is one of the most un-
likely things on the legislative
calendar.
Effort to Stop Fees
The bill was supposed to be the
answer to the cries Of the critics
everywhere that all county officials
should be placed on a salary and
the millions of dollars collected in
fees be turned into the county
treasures.
On several occasions Democratic
house spokesmen have charged by
inference that the measure was
doomed to death by party leaders
as a result of pressure being
brought to bear on them by newly
elected Democratic county officials.
Democrats voting against the bill
were Sam Benz (Crawford and Har-
riSon), Martin T. Kruger LA
Porte), j. Henry Nonnig (Vander-
burg) and John V. Ryan (Vigo).
Herman w. Modisett (Vigo) vot-
ed against the measure, although
the clerk has him with the ayes
on the roll call.
Race Levy Defeated
The house made short work of
two measures designed to tax the
annual 500-mile Memorial day auto
races at the indianapolis Motor
Speedway.
The Grimm bill providing for 5
and 10 per cent levieS on total ad-
mission to all auto races and car
rying a $4,000 appropriation prac-
tically met its death when it failed
45-37 to gain 3 constitutional ma
jority. The Wilson bill fixing a 10
per cent tax on various athletic con-
test admissions was postponed in
definitely.
A total of eleven house and seven
senate bills, including one requir-
ing state institutions to use coal
mined in Indiana, were passed by
the house Friday although the house
bills passed must be approved by
the senate under suspension of rules
if enacted.
Senate bills passed included the
Lochard- -Niblack highway bill, CIV
ing the state highway commission
authority to compel railroads to pay
SO per cent of the elevation costs
over highway routes in cities and
towns as we'll as outside them.

| Helen had never been a very jealous
person.
But you know you'll never have to-"
| she said worderingly
Il don't know anything of the sort!
AS long as I live I am hardening my
self to sharing you with all sorts OF

But that isn't anything" she said.
to his face against hers. Il expect to
have to share you with the whole town
Of Kingsway"
Il don't love Kingsway. Not that
way. You do love so many people,
Helenl"
And I shall continue to-" said Helen
with spirit. You the most"
He sighed a little. II suppose IT'S
the best you can do for mel"
They laughed together. But Helen
wondered afterward, how much of 1t
was teasing-and how much true.
The first of the second week Doris
Milliken came creeping in, standing
watching her and Patricia as they
played their afternoon game Of hide
and seek over the grounds.
Why, Doris dear, how i'll you look"
Helen said concerned. Sit down there
on the marble seat and we'll finish this
game. Then Ill come home with you
or you with me. Yes, Patricia, I'll have
been here till o'clock then. That's
perfectly fair, my dear"
The two girls walked on together in
silence till they gained Helen's room at
the Birch house. Doris huddled down
on the bed, just as she was, staring
before her.
Helen" Doris suddenly burst out
you have to go over to Wayne and
see Ronny for me. He's over there,
working in garage. He said last time
he tried to make me come to him he
was done with me forever. He thought
was lying when I got him on the
telephone, he rang right of. Helen,
We were married last May, and I'm
to Ronny. And he won't have me-"
Helen could only stare at her in sur
prise for moment.
But. Doris" she said, what about
your father and aunt?"
ct daren't tell them-I darent! I'll
drown myself If you dol I couldn't
stand the way they'd treat me II they
knew! Not till I had somebody to be
kind to me-somewhere to go! Aunt
LouiSa-you don't know how she talks
about such things-a clandestine mar
rage Is disgrace, and she'd never
have anything to do with anybody be-
longing to her that had anything to do
with 1t. And father nodded ar"
said it was so. Icouldn't-1 couldn't "
Finally Helen had to promise nat
after talking it over with Ethan ard
getting a release from her promise. she
would go over and see Ronny the next
day.
BY the trick that rules life sometimes,
Ethan was away next day. Helen tele-
phoned Doris, only to be answered in
terror and agony. Il can't wait" Doris
said. Il can't wait another dayl I'm
simply desperate. Helen, and you talk
Of waiting! Ill drown myseh-that's
all"
There was only one thing to do-to
leave a note for Ethan m case by any

chance he returned before he was ex-
pected and to go and have it out with
Ronny.
She went through her days work
with Patricia; wrote her note; weighed
it down with a paper-weight.
Patricia, will you see that Ethan
said, pointing to it.
'"The very minute" Patricia answered
idly, rocking back and forth lightly
where she stood by the window.
Patricia was curiously trustworthy. So
Helen kissed the child gocd-by, ran up
to see Mrs. Kingsway, as had come to be

'why, weren't you going TOP" she
asked innocently and then laughed.
He laughed with her.
Helen, I'd forgotten how to be gay

That was the only thing she did not

the thought of the actual marriage and
the preparations for it frightened her a
little.
If could only go to sleep and wake

that was silly. i. After all, just be-
cause things had happened that way
once they needn't again. The thing 10
do was not to be scare cat, to go
ahead and set day as Ethan wanted;
make plans and generally be the sort
of Helen that Jessica and Doris thought
ste was.
Accordingly, she did. When Ethan.
overprompt, awaited her downstairs in
the little Birch parlor she went down
to him with her mind made up, and
when he said ardently, When are we
going to be married." she laughed and
told him to take out his pocket calendar
and she'd figure it out with him.
He produced the calendar promptly
and said: what do you think OF the
first of March?"
VERY well, then. Ethan. March

Ethan thrust the tiny calendar back
into his pocketbook and caught her 70

Not the least in the world" Ethan
said peremptorily. You are marry
