M'NUTT'S TAX
BILL TACTICS !
ARE FLAILED
Sharp Criticism of Governor
Voiced by Merchants
Group Chief.

Sharp criticism Of Governor Paul
V. McNutt's tactics in obtaining
passage Of the gross income tax law
was voiced Friday night by Fred
Wiedman, president of the South
Bend Merchants Association. as he
spoke at a retail merchants or
ganization meeting at the SEVERN.
"Audacious and diScourteous
treatment of opponents of the bill
when they called also was charged
TO the Governor by Wiedman.
FThe bill will pass the day it is
introduced and you will like it."
Wledman quoted McNutt as say
ing as the delegation left the Offices
after being refused permission to
study the proposal.
Wiedman also recalled public
hearing on the bill before the house
ways and means committee and
charged IAN organized minority
carried the day because politicians
counted more of their noses.
He then outlined purpose of The
meeting as that of perfecting an
organization of retail merchants to
appeal as a unit in protection of
their own interests"
Marion county in the Fifth and
Sixth districts and the Tenth and
Eleventh districts are the only ones
in which basis organization has not
been perfected" Wiedman said.
Wiedman also attacked the coun-
ty road superintendent office and
township unit of government. and
said they would have to be elimi-
mated to insure the drastic cuts in
governmental expense promises by
McNutt.
S. B. Walker, chairman of the
Marion county executive committee
asserted the most dangerous feature
of the l per cent tax is that it only
is a beginning of the establishment
of still higher taxes.
History Of the gasoline tax bears
out that belief" walker said.
Bert S. Gadd, representing the
Indiana Funeral Directors Associa-
ton, declared 80 per cent of Indi-
ana funeral directors are operat-
ing at a loss, and now this addi-
tional burden must be met.
