UTILITIES HEADS FIGHT ABOLITION OF STATE BOARD
Rights of People to Govern Selves Asked by Bush in Plea for Cann Measure.
Indianapolis, Jan. 20—Widely divergent views as to the effect of passage of the bill introduced by Senator Howard A. Cann of Frankfort, providing for abolition of the public service commission by repeal of the Shively-Spencer utility act of 1913 and restoration of the old railroad commission, were presented at the public hearing conducted on the measure yesterday in
the Supreme court room.
The meeting, attended by heads and other representatives of utilities operating in Indiana, and by laymen, was featured by an address by Edgar D. Bush, former Lieutenant Governor of Indiana, who saidj he spoke “not as a representative of any organization, but as a citizen and taxpayer.” His talk was a “home rule” speech, in which he pleaded for absolute abolition of the public service commission and restoration of the right of the people to govern then^selves in their
own communities.
The hearing was conducted by the

Indianapolis, Jan. 19.—With the installation yesterday of George L. Winkler, former lieutenant of the Indiana police department, to the post of deputy administrator of prohibition in Indiana, an entirely new plan of enforcement was outlined. Work of the department will be 30.001 centralized in Indianapolis, direct-
120.00 ;iy under the supervision of Mr.
Jo Winkler, said Alexander G. Jamie, first assistant to E. C. Yellowley, district administrator of Chicago The personnel of the Indianapolis office will be increased from 15 to 30 and these men will operate
throughout the state.
“A prohibition enforcement officer is obviously not very effective in his home town where everybody knows him,” said Mr. Jamie. “The same officer, however, might be unusually efficient in some other
community.
“We expect to work out a plan whereby all work will be centralized in Indianapolis. If we learn of unusually bad conditions in any city in the state, an adequate numj her of officers will be quietly as signed to go to the trouble zon,e, make purchases and obtain search warrants., All of this work will be dnoe simultaneously. This is necessary because the moment one arrest is made in a given community, all other liquor law breakers immediately take to cover. When that particular district has been cleaned up, the group of officers or other officers will be assigned to another part of the state. It is only through such concentrated effort that the Volstead act can be effectively enforced.” Mr. Winkler stated among other things he hoped to raise the personnel of the Indiana staff to a higher plane. He added that apparently work in Indiana has been going on satisfactorily but that he expected by the transfer of some of the agents to make the force even more effective. Six agents are to be transferred from the Indianapolis office and one from the Evansville office, he said. —o

Senate committee on public rights and franchises of which Senator Cann, author of the bill, is chairman. It was attended by Senators George B. Nottingham of Marion, John S. Alldredge of Anderson, Oliver Kline of Huntington, Alonzo H. Lindley of Kingman, Anderson Ketchum of Greensburg, and Joseph M. Cravens of Madison, members of the committee. Senator Cann announced following the meeting that he would “not permit his bill to be talked to death” in public hearings, and that no other public hearing would be held on the hill out of committee he said, probably with some amend-
ments.
Practically all of the speakers were agreed on one thing—that the Cann bill probably is one of the most important pieces of legislation that will be considered in the 1927 Assembly. But their opinions verged from that point in far different directions. “There’s a reason why we’re here every two years on this question,” Mr. Bush said. “Everybody is in favor of keeping the public service commission except the people. Every one profits from the public service commission except the consuming public.” MUNCIEPONZI (Continued from Page One) by Holaday’s victims to prosecute, was lying critically ill at the Home hospital, and Judge Dearth permitted Former Prosecutor Ogle and Wilbur Ryman, Holaday’s attorney, to do the “striking off” which resulted in the selection of the
judge.
Prosecutor Ogle’s last official act, late on the afternoon of Dec. 31, was to appear before Judge Dearth, accompanied by Wilbur Ryman, and seek to have the court dismiss the action charging him with swindling Dave Wedmore, Judge Dearth refused to accede to their demands. It is now hoped that Prosecutor Davis, the Indiana Securities Commission and the Ohio authorities wll be enabled to unravel the mystery of why Holaday has been so tenderly cared for. Mr. Coble, of the securities commission, has been working on the case since last August and has secured a vast amount of data, which will prove valuable to the various prosecuting attorneys who are following the devious trail of crookedness, graft and deceit which have marked the Holaday affair from its beginning. o

Say Selden Suit No Hurt To Ford
Fetroit, Jah. 19.—Conflict on one of the major points in the $30,000,000 Ford tax suit, the effect of the Selden patent case victory on the Ford Motor company, marked the hearing Tuesday of the greatest tax suit in history. The case, won in 1911 by Henry Ford, played no part in the tremendous expansion of the company, declared Peter E. Martin, vice-presi-dent. The suit “hung like a cloud” over the company until Ford won it, said counsel for the nine petitioners who are fighting against payment of an additional $30,000,000 in taxes in connection with the sale in 1919 of all outstanding stock to Ford for $105,000,000. o Democratic members of the state Legislature, who have prepared their political probe resolution to be introduced in the House this morning, w'ere given informal assurance Tuesday by the House majority leaders that there will he no effort to stifle the resolution in a committee.
