TAX BOARD IS
ATTACKED IN
Senate CLASH
LindIey and RowIey Turn
Heavy Guns on Chairman
ShoWaIter and Aids.

If the Indiana state tax board
would function efficiently, and put
all taXableS on the tax duplicate,
and not conf1ne itself to the obvious
real estate, like farm lands, the
tax rate would not be more than
$1.25 on $1,000, and our problem
would be solved
This charge was hurled at the
tax board in the senate today by
Senator Alonzo H. Lindley (Rep.,
Fountain, Vermillion and Warren)
following an attack on Chairman
James Showalter Of the tax board
by Senator Earl RoWley (Rep.,
La Porte and Starke).
Rowley voiced objection to an in
terview with Showalter, in which the
tax board chairman was credited
with charging legislators introducing
real estate tax limitation bills with
playing to the grandstand."
Asks for Cooperation
Rowley is co7author Of bill lin
iting the real estate levy to SITS
on each 500 of taxables. Another
bill was introduced in the senate
today cutting this to 81.
What we need is sympathetic CO.
operation from governmental Off
Gals and not unfounded criticism, -
Rowley declared. eff we would fail
to provide a salary for Showalter, he
would have to go back to Wabash
and go to wrok.'
Row1ey's~ sentiments were sup
ported by Senator Addison Drake
Dem, Sullivan and Vigo), who in
PRODUCED the tax limitation bill with
him.
Lindley introduced a bill deduct
ing 1881 tax payments from real
estate tax sales and a similar bill
was introduced earlier in the day
from the Democratic side.
Moratorium Is Asked :
Other bills introduced by Lindley
call for one-year moratorium on
tax sales scheduled for Feb. 8, on
both real estate and Barrett law
delinquencies. The bills also call
for amortization of deliquent pay
nents over four-year period.
The moratorium and amortiza-
ton bills will be opposed by the
Indiana County Treasllrers' AsSo-
citation, it was announced by Clyde
E. Robinson, Marion county treas
urer and president of the aSSocia-
ton.
A resolution calling for a con-
stitutional amendment exempting
from taxation farm implements,
livestock and household goods not
to exceed $500, was introduced in
the senate Thursday afternoon, and
is now in the hands of the senate
tax steering committee"
Under ruling of the attorney
general no new constitutional
amendments can be considered
until two pending, which failed to
get On the ballots due to technical
defects in the titles, are voted upon.
Poll Tax for All
Senator Ralph Adams (Rep.,
Fayette, Rush and Shelby, who
obtained the opinion, will introduce
bill to submit the amendments
to referendum at the general cleo
tions in November, 1882, he an
nounced.
Senator c. Oliver Holmes (Rep.,
