DEFEAT EFFORT
TO KILL TRUCK.
BUS TAX BILL
Measure Charged to Rail
Lobby Hurdles One
More Obstacle.

Despite charges that the truck
and bus tax bill vas written by the
railroads to put their competitors
out of business, the house of rep
resentatives today defeated by a
53-to-39 vote an attempt to kill the
measure.
A bone" was tossed to the farm
ers in the form of an amendment
which excludes their trucks, within
a thirty f1ve-mile radius, from the
/ mill tax on the ton. mile, but it
was charged that this amendment
is unconstitutional.
Therefore, if the state supreme
court rules out the amendment the
drastic rates will apply equally to
those engaged in agriculture, it was
pointed out.
Representative Howard S. Grimm
CRep), Auburn, asked the bill be
killed by indefinite postponement,
asserting that where the trucks and
buses bear 10 per cent of the ma
tional tax, the railroads only carry
per cent.
Il believe that it takes unmiti
gated gall to introduce such bill, -"
he declared.
Il am opposed to this bill, but rot
a tax" declared DELPHI McKesson
of Plymouth, Democratic floor
leader.
Every speaker for the bill has
CLOSED over one point and that is
that it places 100000 trucks in the
state under the control of the pub
lie service commission.
I'm 1913 when the bill setting up
the commission was passed, it was
hailed as an added protection for
the people of the state.
Yet, in this very session, We have
passed some measures taking munic-
ipally-owned utilities from under
it's control, because the public is
not being protected.
Now we are putting every bus
and truck in the state under its con-
troll.
Its a mighty dangerous thing
when you let the railroads set up
the regulations for the buses and
trucks.
This bill will wipe out many in
dustries of the state which use their
own trucks to transport products, :"
he said.

ate TO suspend for three years the
2-cent state levy for building funds

schools
The bill, as originally passed in
the house, provided for a two-year
suspension Of the levies.

victory Monday in the senate, when
the repeal bill was amended on
second reading to exempt first, sec
ond and third class cities from its
provisions.

So Fatalities, Compared

Forty-six per cent decrease in
traffic fatalities in Indianapolis and
Marion county since Jan. is shown
in comparison with fatalities in
the first seven months of 1881.
Including Aug. 1, there have been
fifty-three fatal traffic accidents in
the city and county, compared with
ninety-eight for the same period
last year, of which police records
reveal that thirty-six occurred with
in the city limits this year, COM
pared with sixty-six last year.
If the same ratio of decrease in
fatalities is maintained the re-

not exceed ninety-eight, as COM

PikeY
City Representatives, Are
Spurned by Feds as
Cheap Stuff
INDIANAPOLIS bootleggers are

INDIANAPOLIS bootleggers are
4 a bunch of pikers, or at least
are highly economical, in eyes Of
the federal government.
AS a result, federal dry agents
find it improbable to take ad-
vantage of the federal statute
permitting them to seize all fur
nishings in places where they buy
liquor while armed with a search
warrant.
This was revealed today when
John w. Morrill,, deputy dry ad-
ministrator, was asked why ex-
ample of dry agents in Chicago
and other larger centerS in seiz-
ing lavish furnishings in bootleg
joints was not followed here.
Morrill, explained that bootleg
gers here and in neighboring
counties, as a rule, do not have
furnishings worth confscating.
THE government would lose
money in most cases." Morrill, ex-
planned, because the furnishings
are of so little value they would
not bring enough at a sale to pay
for storage from the time they
were seized until the case had
been settled in court.
A ND if we did seize the fur
L n nishings, the bootleggers
could replace them for $3.50 or
5000"
indianapolis has nothing to
compare with the lavishly fur
nished night clubs and other
liquor resorts such as are found in
Chicago, he said.
Even the bars in many of the
NEAR beer" saloons in the large
cities cost as high as $4,000, Nor
rill pointed out, and the loss of
these makes it difficult for the
bootlegger to start in business
again.
But here, the average bootleg
ger has cheap room, or rooms,
with secondhand or cheap fur
nishingS, which he can afford to
lose and we can't afford to con-
f1scate."
But if any local 'leggers do de-
eide to become high brow" and
are caught by the dry agents, they
will be minus their furnishings.
Morrill, warned.
