COMMITTEE PLANS
BROAD TAX SYSTEM
Fees on Sales, Liquor and Gig
arettes Estimated to Pro.
duce IS, 100000

To meet an expected deficit during
the next two years Of more than four
million dollars, the senate taxes and
tax laws committee Wednesday con-
sidered broad revenue producing
tax system which, It was claimed,
would produce q 100000 balance at
the end Of the present biennium.
Herbert J. Roberts, deputy state
tax commissioned, told the senate
committee that anticipated expendi-
lures for the two-year period ending
June 30, 1887, would exceed income
to be derived under the present sys-
tenn Of taxation by $4,323,888
He calculated the total anticipated
deficit would reach s., 423, 888, but
said that funds derived from trans
fer Of motor vehicle license fees would
equal $l,l00.000 and reduce the ex-
pected deficit.
To meet the deficit the committee
discussed new tax program which,
1t was estimated, would produce q
total income OF $500, 900. Enactment
Of q sales tax in the state, they figur-
ed. would produce $4,000 900.
Under the plan, tightening Of en-
forcement Of present cigarette tax
laws, with no additional tax how
ever, would bring the state an addi-
tional 100000. Income derived from
possible liquor tax would bring $780,
000 while an additional tax on beer
would bring the state another half
million dollars.
No action on the proposal to set up
the new taxing system was taken by
the committee although 1t was point
ed out that should the new plan be

LEVEE PROJECT
! ON WHITE RIVER
NEARING FINISH
1850 Employed on Job at
Peak; Cost Put at
$4,000.

All construction work on the new
levee and food prevention project
along White River between College
av and Kessler-blvd will be com
pleted within the next few weeks, it
was announced today by Harvey w.
Cassidy, flood prevention engineer
IN the city engineering department.
About 500 men are adding finish
ing touches to the section of the
levee In the Warfleigh district, but
they will soon be moved to other
projects, Mr.. Cassidy said.
All construction on the project
has been done by FERA workers IN
der the supervision of the city en-
cheering department. An average
OF 300 men have worked on the
project daily since construction was
begun in December, 1893. and at
certain times as many as 1850 men
have been employed.
The new leVee, on the south bank
Of the stream, is about one and
one-half miles long, rises from 20
to % feet above the average height
Of the river. 1t is five and one-half
feet higher and much thicker and
stronger than the old levee which
it replaces. 1t is two and one-half
feet higher than the record high
water mark of the famous 1913
flood which inundated the entire
Broad Ripple and Warfleigh dis
trict.
Old Levee Battered
Flood waters in 1927 came within
Is inches of the top of the old levae
and it had been weakened and en-
dangered by many floods in other
years.
Another shorter embankment with
roadway along the top has been
built on the north bank between N.
Pennsylvania-st and u. S. 81.
Besides the levees the project in
cluded the widening and straighten-
ing of the chanuel and the removal
of high sand bars and accumula-
tons of snagS and other debris
which had been deposited in the
stream.
Many persons living near the river
have complained that men working
on the project needlessly or heed
lessly cut down many fine shade
trees along the river bank, but Mr..
Cassidy insists that no trees were
destroyed unless it was absolutely
necessary.
Area to Be Handicapped
Some had to be removed, he said.
because they stood in the way of
the new levee-others because the
ground at their bases CONSTRUCTED
the channel. Most of these trees.
he said, were in bad condition and
would have died naturally within
few years.
Park Board employees have sown
about thres-fourths of the levee
with grass seed and the remaining
newer section at Warfleigh probably
will be sown next fall. Landscaping
work along the entire length of the
project will be done by the board.
The total labor cost is expected to
be slightly more than $4,000 All
of this is paid by Federal relief
funds. The cost to the city en-
cheering department for tools.
equipment and supervision was
$13,OO87O.

PLEASING
 THE MAN
By CHLOE HANSON

Every so often you'll ma men have a yearning for piece of good
 gingerbread or ginger cake. And
 most of them like it served hot, or
 partly so. Ginger cake goes well with such simple additions as apple
 sauce, stewed pears (which its spicy flavor compliments exception
 ally welD, stewed apricots and simple fruit salads like grapefruit
 and orange and grape salad served with a fruit juice French dressing
 instead of rich whipped cream. This recipe for ginger cake is a very good one: NANA'S GINGER CAKE 1a cup sugar
 1s cup butter
 1a cup mOlasses 2K cups flour
 teaspoon cinnamon F teaspoon cloves 1 teaspoon ginger 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons soda 1 cup boiling water 2 eggs ksss Cream butter and sugar. add mo- lasses and mix well. Sift dry in- gredients (except soda) several times and mix hot water and soda. Add flour and soda water alter
 nately to first mixture, then add ell-beaten eggs. Bake in a mod ate oven for about 45 minutes. Serve while still warm, either plain or with frosting of cream cheese mixed to spreading consistency with little heavy cream. A less expensive recipe is this one for an upside down ginger bread combined with fruit: Soft Gingerbread Cream 1-3 cup sugar and Ia cup
 butter; add 1 egg and .1-3 cup but termilk beaten together. Sift to- gether 1 Ia cups flour, X teaspoon ginger, 1a teaspoon cinnamon, 4
 teaspoon salt, 1h teaspoon soda, l teaspoon baking powder, and add
 to the first mixture, beating well
 until smooth. In the bottom of a
 greased baking pan spread a layer
 of drained cooked apples or shred-
 ded pineapple; pour gingerbread
 batter over and bake 30 to 40 min-
 utes in a moderate oven. Turn out of pan while hot and serve plain
 or with cream, if desired. Add a small pinch of baking
 soda to the egg whites you are beating for meringue; 1t will all ways stand up high and firm when
 baking after removing from the
 oven to cool.

KITCHEN COMMENTS

To prevent cakes and cookies from drying out, place peeled ap- pie or a piece of fresh bread in tEe container in which the cake IS kept. This will provide just the right degree of moisture required to keep the cake fresh and light.
 When sugar or juice from pies runs over in the oven and scorch- es, sprinkle salt over the burning substance and 1t will check the smoke and odor. Be liberal in the use of the salt.
 To hasten the cooling process of custards or gelatins, set the con- tainer of hot mixture in ice water, adding ice as needed, and you will save two or three hours cooling time. .t., ,..~
 Cheese of all kinds should be kept in a cool, dry place. over loaf cheese place a thin cloth that has been wrung out of vinegar water, and the cheese will not dry out or form a hard crust.
 Never discard jelly that has turned to sugar. Heat it with a half-glass of water, and you will have a delicious fruit syrup 70 serve with French toast and pam cakes. yss.ses .,

ION THE PANTRY SHELF

Among the general utilities that belong on every pantry shelf are little packets of bouillon cubes or small can of boulllon which may be called on to give insipid soups and gravies the body and flavor they lack. Creamed leftover chicken is made twice as tasty by the. use of half bouillon and half milk in making the white sauce The same holds good for any num- Der of creamed dishes where the flavor of stock is required to en- rich the sauce.
 Chocolate of the kind used for coating candies should always be on the pantry shelf; likewise few nuts and raisins. When the call goes out for candy, 1t Is but the work Of a few moments to prepare a whole bonbon dishfui of delicious chocolate coated nuts and fruit. Wholesome and inexpensive.
 It is highly important to have the mushrooms fresh and free from bruises or specks. Fresh mushrooms are white or creamy :n color, firm to the touch and moist, not dry or rubbery. The short. stenmed mushrooms are the most expensive. The food value and flavor is just as good in the long, stemmed varieties, and these should always be- bought for creaming, gravies, soup.
 Paper towels make good dish cloths. :. if you stion't mind using two or three during the process of washing dishes. Their rough tex ture makes them efficient when food sticks to plates and pans. Squeeze as dry as possible and dis card as soon as one shows signs of going to pieces.
