ing today e.
You will pay to the United States
8 per cent of the cost of the cleo
tricity that toasted your bread at

That So long distance call you
made from your Office will cause you

needy Uncle Sam.
The cablegram you sent to your
friend in Europe cost you 10 cents
fiat in federal tax.
The check you cashed to get lunch
money took another cents from
your pocket and transferred it to
the federal treasury.
Your movie ticket tonight, if your
favorite playhouse charges over 40
cents, will cost, in addition, l cent
for each 10 cents or fraction therein
in excess of 40 cents.
These are among the new taxes

the result of President Hoover's &C
ton at 5 p. m. on June 6, signing

which Myers depended for a
solid vote did not come
through.
M. Clifford Townsend of Marion,
active in the Indiana Farm Bureau,
was nominated for Lieutenant Gov
ernor on the first ballot, after coun-
ties began switching to him. The
first switch was by Elkhart county,
which gave all its twenty-four votes
to Townsend.
There were three other candidates
in the race for Lieutenant Gov
ernor, when nominations were
called for shortly before /. They
were James T. Arbuckle, Rushville;
Charles j. Murphy, Brookston, and
Michael Boland, Batesville.
Allen county gave Van Nuys
twenty-nine and Myers thirty. Lake
county split its vote, thirty three
for Van Nuys, thirty -four for Myers.
Madison county cast it's forty-five
votes for Van Mugs, while Marion
county, adhering to its resolution
of Monday night caucus, split the
vote 1929 votes for each.
Votes Are Split
st. Joseph county, in surprise
move, gave Van Mugs forty-seven
and Myers twenty-seven, while
Vanderburgh, where Myers had
made wet talks, gave Van Mugs
thirty-four and Myers nineteen.
Wild cheering halted reading of
the platform by James E. Deery,
Indianapolis city attorney, and reso-
lutions committee chairman, when
he came to the planks asking repeal
of the eighteenth amendment and
the Wright bone dry law. A band
made the rounds of the convention
floor, playing, How Dry 1 Am
Applause was liberal also when
Deery read the planks pledging the
party to enactment of an old-age
pension law, anti-yellow dog con-
tract legislation, and declarations
for removal of municipality owned
utilities from supervision of the
public service commission.
Van Mugs was introduced by
Chairman John S. McFadden as the
man who will defeat James E. Wat

Would Restore Confidence
Van Nuys said:

which will confront us when Demo-
Gratis are elected. The live issue is.
Shall or shall not the government
be returned to the people,"
He said one of the tasks would be
to store to the people confidence in
themselves.

Friends Assert.
SENTENCING JULY ~
Former Police Chief Also
Can Be Fined $4,000
for Tax Evasion.

The guilty plea of Claude M. Wor.
ley, former Indianapolis police chief
to federal income tax charges re-
suited from his absolute refusal tc
defend himself from the witness
stand, and because he didn't want
his name in every newspaper"
This was learned from reliable
sources today, twenty-four hours
after he, through his attorneys, en-
tered the crime admission plea be-
fore Judge Robert G. Baltzell on
four of the six counts charged
against him.
No word came from the former
city official today. He had returned
to his rendezvous in Brooklyn, Ind.
where he has a cottage.
His attorneys, Frank Symmes and
Michael Ryan, were noncommittal.

guilty plea at the instruction of
their client.

But friends of Worley'S who have
been in close touch with him since

take the witness stand"
1t was understood that his at
torneys were drawing plans for the
defense case when Worley on Mon
day morning told them he had de-
cided to plead guilty. The trial was
to start Wednesday.
Worley is scheduled to be sem
fenced July %. The court can inn
pose penitentiary sentence of six
teen years and fines totaling $40, 600.

MED guilt were dismissed by Dis
trict Attorney George r. Jeffrey.

The United Press learned admin
istration chieftains probably would
confer with Borah in an attempt to
avoid a party split, although there
was no indication what inducement
they would offer to the man, who,
it is admitted, sways thousands of
votes west of the Mississippi.
These leaders said they felt Borah
merely had stated his position on
the prohibition plank, and that on
the general platform he had more in
common with President Hoover than
with any candidate the Democrats
could name.
Several Courses Open
Several lines of action remain
open to the western leader, who in
many previous battles has flung
down the party standard, and then
picked it up again.
l. He might ignore the presi-
Dental campaign, and devote his
energies to campaigning for in
dividual dry senators and con-
gressmen.
2. He might throw his support,
or at least his vote, to some other
presidential candidate.
3. He might head a third party,
though he said he had absolutely
nothing in view along that line"
4 President Hoover, in the
course of the campaign, might
continue to interpret" the plank
in a manner that would win back
Borah'S support.
The White House had mo COM
ment at this time" on the dramatic
utterance which Borah roared out
in the senate late Monday before
crowded galleries, which hung on
his every word.
Brands Plank as Wet
But Borah's studied and vehe-
ment denunciation of the whole Re-
publican platform, and the prohi-
bition plank in particular, seemed to
leave little chance for compromise.
He declared the prohibition plank
was generality" which really stood
for nothing but repeal.
Il disavow and reject this plank, 3"
the Idaho orator roared, land say
shall not be bound by it."
Borah charged further that the
plank-which calls for submission
of a states rights" substitute for
the eighteenth amendment-was
drafted and put through the con-
vention by men, who actually stood
for repeal.

LIQUOR
BATTLE RESTS
ON ROOSEVELT
Costly Convention Fight
May Rise Over His
Desire for Submission.
BY RAY TUCKER

CHICAGO, June democratic
leaders here fear they may have a
disastrous prohibition fight at their
national convention because of
Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt's
apparent desire for a submission of
repeal amendment without party
Endorsement of repeal.
Al Smith and Governor Albert G..
Ritchie of Maryland arrive Wednes-
day prepared to make a laSt-ditch
stand tor a plank committing the
party to repeal
Major E. Brooke Lee, Maryland's
resolutions committee member, has
announced he will offer such a pro-
posal, and fight for it on the floor,
if necessary.
Smith is expected to make the
same demand in convention, or by
radio.
1t is believed they will voice the
dominant conviction of the conven-
ton.
AS the situation develops, it ap-
pears that Roosevelt will occupy the
same relation toward the Demo-
Gratis decision that President Hoov-
err did toward the Republicans &C
ton. Hoover forced an apparently
wet majority to accept this "straddle
plank"
Roosevelt May Prevent Plank
Though lacking presidential
authority, the New York Governor,
by holding the balance of power in
the convention, probably can pre-
vent a plank pledging repeal.
His spokesman, James A. Farley
of New York, is understood to favor
the Bingham plank rejected by the
G. 0. P. convention. A similar plank
has been prepared by Roosevelt's
hacker, Senator G. G. Dill.
That commits the party to moth
ing except giving the people a
chance to vote.
1t does not place the party's in
f1uence behind the movement to
scrap the noble experiment" and
begin anew.
1t does not, as majority sentiment
demands, take sides on the major
issue of prohibition reform.
The Scripps-Howard poll of del
egations shows more than a ma
jority willing to accept outright re-
peal
Delegates Against "StraddIe"
The figures were 6S7 for simple
submission and AS for Endorsement
of repeal. But of the 637, about 300
delegates favorable to Roosevelt will
follow him for Endorsement of re-
peal, if he will lead. If he is con-
tent with mere submission, they will
accept that.
The Democrats position is similar
to, but stronger than the Republic
ans was when the latter Surren-
dered to Hoover's dictation.
The unfavorable, nation wide re-
Spouse to the Hoover straddle
plank" has convinced Democratic
leaders that they can win if they
adopt absolute repeal.
Southern delegates, hitherto OPP
posed to such commitment, now
favor it.
The only "straddle," or "law en-
forcement" delegations, come from
Hoover's home state of California,
Carrie Nations Kansas, and Okla
homa.
