TWOKilled When Iran
Shifts Hat Style

Iran have received with great
pleasure the suggestion of wear.
ing European hats. The incident
referred to has to do with a Ger.
tain mad priest, Shahab, who
managed to have a few fanati-
cal, ignorant followers cause
some disturbance, which was
Immediately put down by the
police and resulted in the arrest
of his followers, two deaths and
a few casualties. In other parts
of Iran the people discarded the
old Iranian hats with willing
ness and great pleasure"
In other words, Shahab and his
followers merely had introduced
to Iranians the game once popu
lar with American children and
snowballs, which became known
as beaver"
Iran, in case you are unaware
of it, is the name Of a kingdom
located in the country popularity
known as Persia.

European hats by loyal Iranians
were "just talking through their

A formal letter on stationery

Favors Continued
"Cracking Down"
on Motorists

commencing the Police Depart.
ment on its drive to reduce traffic
accidents by arrests and vigorous
prosecution of violators, Commits
Sioner Melvin c. Hazen today or.
dered members of the force to
pay special attention to speeding,
weaving in and out. and turning
right and left from the wrong
lane of traffic.
In addition to further "crack-
ing down" on motorists, the Dis
trict head instructed Police Super.
intendent Ernest w. Brown to
include pedestrians in the traffic
safety drive. He stated:
"While your efforts as to
autOmObiliSts must not be al.
lowed to lag, it should be re.
membered that the pedestrian
likewise has his share of re-
spOnSibiIity in the matter Of
traffic safety, and it is sug.
gested that members of the
force invite the pedestrians
attention to any direct, flag
rant violation
Notes Improvement
Commissioner Hazen stated that
there has been a decided and
noticeable improvement in traffic
conditions since the Inauguration
Of the drive"
Commissioner Hazen asked also
for enforcement of the regulation
governing the blowing of automo.
bile horns. He said the Commits
Sioners had received many COM
plants of unnecessary "honking."
Policemen were cautioned by
the District head to be courteous
to motorists regardless of what
violations have been committed.
TIE said:
"The Commissioners insist
that in all arrests and in all
warnings, courtesy must be
shown. This does not mean
mean that the officer should
be neglectful, but on the con-
trary that he should firmly, yet
cOurteOusly and strictly, enforce
the laws and regulations"
PARENTS WARNED
Policemen were instructed
further to call attention Of
parents to the danger of permit
ting children to play in the
streets.
A survey of dangerous intersec.
lions and other traffic hazards,
with a view to elimination Of
many of them, was ordered today
by Superintendent Of Police
Ernest w. Brown.
Major Brown pointed out that
some intersections in the District
are made dangerous by high
banks, trees or other distractions.

ington again demonstrated the

M'NUTT FORCES
TO OPPOSE NET
INCOME LEVY
Stein, Weiss and Jackson
Express DiSapproVaI of
Proposal.

Indications that the adrniIistra-
ton would discourage attempts to
enact a net income tax law 20 take
the place Of present gross tax legis-
lation we're seen in comments OF
officials and Assembly leaders today.
Still figuratively back on their
heels" from the shock of yesterdays
Supreme Court decision relating to
the method Of amending the state
Constitution, party leaders we're
busily considering far-reaching
ramifiCatiOns Of the ruling.
L think 1t would be impossible to
pass a net income tax law and I
feel II would be unnecessary at this
time" said Rep. Edward H. Stein
3D., Bloomfeld.
Jackson Is Opposed
1--WE feel that the present gross
tax law is much more scientific and
a fairer method Of taxation than
any yet devised" declared Jacob
Weiss, Senate floor leader.
1T would be nearly impossible to
raise the revenue that we need I'M
der a net income tax law" was the
comment OF Clarence A. Jackson,
gross income tax division director.
Meanwhile constitutional authori-
ties expressed unofficial opinions
uuieting early rumors that scores of
Indiana attorneys would be dis
barred by the courts decision, which
in effect, held that the people had
repealed the constitutional provision
emitting all persons of good moral
character 10 practice law.
Bar Test to Be Required
These attorneys held that rules
for admission to the bar established
by the Supreme Court are effective,
and that the decision is not retroac-
tive to effect persons practicing at
the bar at the time the decision was
handed down.
Henceforth attorneys must pass
rigid examinations before being per-
mitted to practice in any Of the
courts of justice in the state.
The effect of the decision upon
salaries Of officials increased dur
ing their terms remained unsettled.
one of the amendments given life
by yesterdays decision was the one
prohibiting the increasing of sal
aries during the term for which
officials were elected or appointed.
Pay Hikes May Be Illegal
Unofficial OPINIONS were that the
salaries of all the judges of the Su-
preme Court, Appellate Court, Su-
perior and Circuit Courts that have
been increased since the amend
ment was voted upon are illegal and
refunds must be made to the public
treasures.
The $4,000 pay increase voted for
Lieut. Gov. NJ. Clifford Townsend by
the 1888 General Assembly was I'M
der question. The same legislature
voted increases for Pleas Greenlee,
secretary to Gov. Paul V. McNutt.
The question of the effect of the
decision upon salaries may be sub
mitted to the courts for interpreta-
ton, it was reported.

City Has Four
WPA Projects
Crew of Men Now LAYING 5000 Feet
OF CastirOn Water Mains.
S. w. Park Assured,

A force OF 81 men under the
direction of Mayor M. r. Calder
wood and Timekeeper Ed Larkin,
representing the WPA, Is at Work
laying six-inch castiron water
mains on South Cody avenue, re-
placing the old rotten steel pipe.
When the pipe laying is completed
on this project, it will form q
loop connecting with the main on
Grow avenue. This is one of tAo
Hardin city water projects that
have been approved by the Works
Progress Administration.
The other project runs north en-
Center avenue from Fourth street
to Eighth street; thence west on
Eighth street to Cody avenue, and
south on Cody avenue to Fourth
street. Three thousand feet of
six-inch castiron pipe is to be
purchased by the city and the
labor of laying it will be paid
for by the WPA, each man on
the job being paid 40 cents per
hour for 100 hours a month, thus
assuring each man on the job
SUFFICIENT work to bring him $40
a month, with which he will be
enabled to purchase sufficient
groceries to feed his family.
Another PWA project which has
been approved is that of the
Southwest city park, embracing
a block $50 feet lone and 800
feet wide lying one block west
and two blocks south of the Har-
din General hospital on Third
street. The park will be bordered
on the east by Miles avenue and
by Lewis avenue on the west. II
is too late to do any work on the
park this year, but in the early
spring the land will be graded
and trees will be planted and r.
rigation laterals run, the irri-
eating water to be taken from the
Two Leggins canal. All labor on
these projects will be furnished
by the PWA.
There is yet another nroject
that has been annroved, that of
n unit of a sub-drain project
to enlarge and deepen the drain
ditch On the south side of the
railroad right-of- way, extending
west to Miles avenue, which will
afford a rood drainage from the
southwest part of town to the
river and will tend to prevent the
begging of easements in the city
from seepage. All labor for this
work will be furnished by the
WPA.
Thus far the city of Hardin
has had approved four of the
eight projects asked for, and the
others may yet meet with ap-
prevail.
