Italy Alone Will Decide
Course in AybSSinia,

CAGLIARI, Sardinia, June B.
Benito Mussolini plainly told Great
Britain today that Italy's course in
AbySsinia is for Italy alone to de-
eide, and that he would not be
stopped.
Addressing troops of the Sabauda
division, to review whom he piloted
a three -motored seaplane 280 miles
across the Tyrrhenian Sea from
Rome, he said of England.
I'VE will initiate to the letter
those who presume to be our school
masters. They have shown that
when it was necessary to create or
defend an empire, they did not take
into consideration at all the
opinions of the world"
Italy, he said, had firmly decided
to accept no coercion in its dealings
with Abyssinia.
Only yesterday, in the British
House of Commons, speakers OF all
three main parties denounced
Italy's course in its dispute with
Abyssinia.
The men whom Mussolini ad-
dressed today are about to sail for
East Africa, to wait during the
equatorial rainy season for his or
derS as to war.

STATE LOSES IN
CROSS TAX SUIT
Bulk Sales to Institutions
Take Lesser Levy, Is
Court Ruling.

One phase Of the administration
Of the Indiana Gross Income tax
law was held unconstitutional late
Yesterday by Special Judge Russell
Ryan. and the state thereby stands
TO lose several hundred thousand
dollars income, it was estimated by
the tax department.
Special Judge Ryan held that
sales of large amounts of goods by
manufacturers to public and private
institutions are wholesale deals, and
are subject to a tax of but one
fourth of one per cent. These pre-
viously had been regarded as retail
sales and had been taxed one per
cent.
Judge Ryan held the law itself
does not define wholesale and retail
sales. but that the administrative
officers Of the law had made the
definition. This function. he said. is
legislative and judicial. and not adj
miniStrative. and therefore the
operating definition is unconstitu-
tional.
The definition had been that
goods sold for resale were whole
sale deals and subject to the lesser
tax. Since goods sold in large guam
titles to public and private institu-
tions obviously are not for resale
the administrators previously mad
collected a retail tax on them.
The decision was III the cases
brought by the j. P. Michael Co.
the Capital Paper Co. and the p w
Jackson Chemical Co. against the
state. Samuel J. Mantell was an
attorney for the plaintiffs and the
state was represented by the attor-
ney generals staff.
Philip Lutz. attorney general. filed
a bill of exceptions to the j. P
Michael e. Co. decision and a mo-
ton for a new trial.

FRY MOVES TO
ENFORCE CURB
ON NIGHT CLUBS
1000 RoadhouSeS in State
Affected by Decision
UNFOLDING Law.
APPEAL TO BE TAKEN
Owners of Resorts Ready to
Take Fight to High U. S.
Tribunal.

Excise enforcement agents, led by
Paul P. Fry, state excise director,
and aided by sheriffs of Indiana
counties, will begin an immediate
drive on 2OOO roadhouses operating
outside the corporate limits of cities
and towns.
The action was planned follow
ing the ruling late yesterday after
non of Circuit Judge Earl r. Cox
that the 1885 Indiana liquor act out
having roadhouSes is constitutional.
An appeal, may be taken directly
to the United States Supreme Court,
if rosdhouse operators contribute to
a fund now being raised, it was
learned.
Judge Cox ruling settles an i'm
portant question and one in which
We are vitality interested. AS soon
as we receive a certified copy of the
decision. liquor control officers will
act against those roadhouses that
remain open," Mr.. Fry said.
In his ruling Judge Cox dissolved
a temporary restraining order in
test case brought by Samuel John
son and Marie Stricken, operators
of The Cars, a roadhouse at Emer-
son and Southeastern-avs.
Notice of Appeal Given
A formal notice of appeal was
taken by John A. Royse, attorney
for the Tavern Protective Associa-
ton, on behalf of roadhouSe oper-
ators. Appeal bond was set at 5000.
Without hearing evidence Judge
Cox ruled that the Circuit Court
lacked jurisdiction; that recent In
diana Supreme Court rulings tended
to give the Alcoholic Beverage Com
mission the power to control liquor
licenses: that the legislature made
a grant of power and did not dele
gate its authority in creating the
Liquor Control Board, and that the
police powers had not been usurped
in permitting the ABC body to con-
troll roadhouses and refuse licenses.
Not a Vested Right
Judge Cox held that a roadhouse
or saloon license is not a vested
property right.
He said orally:
IF these plaintiffs have proceeded
to set up extensive and expensive
establishments known as night
clubs, they did so in the full pres
ence of the fact that the state could
at any time revoke the permit or
license or the Legislature could de-
Stroy the entire act itself and thus
they can not complain, but must
abide by the hazards of the business
in which they choose to invest their
money"
Always Subject to Control
Liquor has always been the sub
ject of supervision, regulation and
control and will always be regard
ed in that light, fer the reason that
its dangerous possibilities of harm
to the citizenship is constantly pres
ent." Judge Cox said.
mo commodity whose chemical
action upon the human body is
such can be without the most
stringent regulations under the
police power. There can be
no doubt that the legislature, under
the Constitution, exercised its valid
power in passing this act and it is
the judgment of this court that the
act is valid" Judge Cox ruled.
Sheriff Otto Ray, upon being in
formed of the decision, said he
would aid Mr.. Fry and his agents
in closing Marion County night
clubs.

sought, Judge Karabell was told, to
locate q fugitive through informa-

Judge Karabell se!d he recently
had suspended the fine which he

You evidently did more than
that, Judge" the detectives said

Judge KarabelI denied that he had
taken such action, and recalled that
