MERIT SYSTEM
BILL is PASSED
House Approves City Police,
Fireman Measure,
81 to IL.

The Indianapolis police and fire.
mems merit system bill, passed the
House today by vote Of 81 to II.
An effort by Rep. Morris H. Coers
ID. Indianapolis to have the bill
made a special order of business for
tomorrow or Thursday was defeated
on a motion TO table and the roll
was called following a short debate.
I'm for the bill but I want it
held over to give several parties an
opportunity to look into the meas
ure." Rep. Coers explained.
Rep. Carl E. Wood ID, Indian
apolis) explained that the measure
IS purely local in nature and would
aid in taking appointments to the
police and fire departments out of
politics.
Mayor John w. Kern was one of
the bills sponsors. Merit selection
of police and firemen has been urged
by The Times.
If you pass this bill I'm going to
introduce one placing all the police
and fire departments of the state
under the merit system or civil serv-
ice. You know what has happened
under civil service in the Federal
government. I'm against this meas
ure and 1 vote No" declared Rep.
Lenhardt E. Bauer ID, Terre
Haute).
The measure provides a merit
commission of five members to
make appointments following a
training period. 1t also sets up a
promotion as well as disciplinary
board in both police and fire depart
mentS.

was carried away. The wooden boat
sprung leaks. Mountainous seas
poured over our decks. With the
seas becoming higher and the wind
at gale force Capt. Lord decided to
send a distress call Feb 10.
The battlesllip Australia, with the
Duke Of Gloucester, son Of King
George, aboard, answered our call.
She reached us last night and took
off nine members of the crew, the
younger men for whose safety Capt
Lord had been apprehensive. They
had joined us in New York and New
England ports in a spirit of adven-
ture. The captain did not wish to
endanger their lives.
We have aboard radio broadcast
ing equipment of considerable value
1t was to protect this and also to
save his ship that Lord decided TO
wait for the Ontario, which will tow
us to Page Pago. the United States
naval base at Tutuila, Samoa.

importer under terms of the new
bill, it is reported, and will collect
the tax as the much-attacked i'm
porter has done under the present
system.
The outgoing importer will be
given an indeterminate period,
probably nine months, in which to
wind up his business or make any
new connections he might desire
to qualify as a wholesaler.
By-the-drink whisky will be
legalized and the present monopo-
listic feature which confines bottle
sales to drug stores will be elm
mated.
Any reputable business may be
allowed to- retail whisky, although
number of regulations may have to
be promulgated to determine the
degree of repute which would quail
ify a retail liquor license applicant.
Wholesale whisky licenses are re-
ported fixed tentatively at $4,000 an
nually and the law may give the
state control board power to require
wholesalers to put up a $4,000
surety bond.
1t is reported that city councils
or town boards in communities of
5000 population or less would deter
mine whether their communities
would have by-the-drink sales or
not.
The state control board is re-
ported given broad powers on
licensing with one of the detectives
the curbing of liquor sales to minors.
There remains a great deal of
argument about what price-f1xing
powers can be conferred on the con-
troll board, which probably will con-
tain four members. The liquor
commissioners may be paid an an
nual salary for full-time service or
$40 per diem and expenses.

men.
Demands made on Abys-
sinia were announced as
members of the Supreme De-
Tense Commission, called only
in emergencies, gathered for
a meeting under Premier Benito
Mussolini to consider political and
military phases of the crisis. The
demands included:
1. Formal salute to the Italian
flag.
2. Formal diplomatic apology.
3. Indemnity for the attack.
4. Appointment of a mixed COM
mission to delimit the Abyssinian-
Italian Somaliland frontier.
5. A guaranty that the frontier
would be respected.
AS mobilization proceeded, italian
outposts in Somaliland reported that
10000 Ethiopians were maSsed on
the frontier where preparations for
war seemed being rushed.
Mussolini appointed Gen. Eudol-
pho GRAHAM commander of the
Italian expeditionary force. He is
So. and former vice governor of the
Cyrenaica colony in Africa. Gen.
Emilio de Bono, high commissioner
for the colonies of Eritrea and
Somaliland, will be in general
charge.
1t was believed that Italy would
demand from Abyssinia money
indemnity of $5,000,000, with part
of which provision would be made
for families of italian native soldiers
killed by tribesmen. The money
might be used to repair damage to
Italian outpoSts also, unless Speci-
fic demand were made for COM
penSation as regards them.
The indemnity demand was based
on a computation of 200 men killed,
with a demand for 1000 Abyssinian
thalerS (about $500 for each man
killed and $50 thalers (about $75)
for each man wounded.
In token of the manner in which
the government regards the posi-
bilities of long fighting, officers for
the expeditionary force are being
recruited on the basis of two years
service.

ANOTHER SCOOP!

From 10 pounds at birth to 81
pounds now. That's the mark
the Dionne quintuplets have set
in this world since their birth,
which, in itself, was a marvel,
because the chances of quin-
tuple birth actually are one in
100000.
This week the Dionne babies
parents are in Chicago, learn
ing this and that about large
city life, and from reports, ap-
parently yearning to be home
with their quintuplets and their
other children.
The story of the quintuplets
will never get old. For years
their progress in life and their
activities will always be news.

Assembly.
In preparation for weeks in the
hands of committee acting for
the Administration, the measure
was reported taking final form
today for introduction in the Sen
ate. 1t is a voluminous measure in
its original content.
Objections of numerous groups
have been met and their ideas car
ried out as far as is compatible with
the objective of writing model bill
to replace the experiment under
which the liquor and beer business
now is operated in Indiana.
Efforts have been made to keep
the provisions of the measure a Sc
cret until its introduction. The fol-
lowing forecast of its content is
based on information obtained from
several sources believed to be au-
thoritative.
Sharp Tax Cut Proposed
The tax provisions of the bill are
reported to include a reduction Of
the 25-cent pint tax on whisky TO
10 cents pint and a reduction of
the $155-a- barrel tax on beer to
81 a barrel.
The whisky tax figure was arrived
at in an effort to reduce bootlegging,
primarily, and secondarily, on the
theory that increased consumption
of legal liquor would more than
make up the revenue lost by the re-
duction.
With the object of outlawing the
roadhouse, the bill is reported to go
further than originally intended
when it was decided that no liquor
could be legally sold outside of areas
which have police protection.
Roadhouses Are Outlawed
The restriction now has reduced
booze boundry lines to the corporate
limits of cities and towns. If the
original plan had been adhered to,
liquor retailers could have operated
outside the larger cities where po-
lice have authority extending several
miles past the city limits.
The bill tentatively sets the an
nual minimum hard liquor license at
$3.50, it is reported, and the mini
mum beer license at 5000. A pro-
vision may be inserted to make a
dis iuction in the license scale be-
tween first ana second-class cities.
Wholesalers will become the beer
