POST OPPOSES GASH PAYMENT Indianapolis Legionnaires Table Department Request
Indianapolis, Feb. 5.—(UP) — Open opposition to the American Legion’s policy favoring immediate cash payment of bonuses to world war veterans was announced by members of the Mcllvaine-Kothe Post of the legion here. What appeared to be a direct blow at the orgtwiization's policy was delivered at a post meeting last night when all members voted to indefinitely table a communication from state legion headquarters urging cooperation in the cash
bonus movement.
A motion to write United States Senators James E. Watson and Arthur E. Robinson informing them of the post’s opposition, was lost for want of second. Members said they believed it inadvisable to pay the bonus now, wih financiers decrying the flota-
tion of billions
bonds that would be necessary
cash payment.
It was felt that economic conditions, already disturbed, would become more upset by bonus paj'-
ment.
Further opposition to the cash ’etirement movement was announcid by the Indianapolis board of rade, which last night adopted a •esolution setting forth that ‘‘the iction would be a devastating set>ack to the country’s financial
tructure.”

DEFEAT WHIPPING POST BILL; CITIES TO INSURE VOLUNTEER FIREMEN IF MEASURE PASSES
Indianapolis, Feb. i.—UP—The The House suspended its consti-much-discussed “whipping post” tutional rules yesterday and rush-
bill, introduced in the state senate by John S. Moorhead, republican, Indianapolis, met insurmountable opposition yesterday and was killed by a vote of 22 to 12 when brought down for third reading. A heated debate preceding the vote, Senators quoted |reely from the scripture, the Federal constitution and referred to historic
events.
The burden of the argument opposing the measure was to the effect that a “whipping post” would place Indiana on a mediaeval basis.
to third reading a bill by Senator Alonzo H. Lindley, Republican, Kingman, which was passed by a vote of 86 to 3 and sent to Governor Harry G. Leslie for his considi eration. The measure would prohibit collection of taxes payable in 1931 in the sale of delinquent lands and lots next Monday, February 9. A measure requiring cities, towns and villages having volunteer fire departments to insure voluntary firemen was passed by a vote of 78 to 12. It provides that a maximum amount of $1,000, pay-

EXPLAINS LOSS OF FEDERAL AID
State Fails to Collect $3,500,00 for Road Building Indianapolis, Feb. Z.—(UP) — Heavy maintenance expense on Indiana highways last year was cited by William J. Titus, chief engineer, as the principal cause of failure of the state to collect $3,500,000 available in federal aid during 1930. Titus admitted, in his testimony before the Senate investigating committee, that large sums were transferred w to a “betterments” fund instead of being used in new construction, on which federal aid may be obtained. Federal engineers brought this to the highway department’s attention in 1930, as an explanation of the state’s inability to obtain more federal aid money, Titus explained, in reply to questions by Semtt^r C. Oliver Holmes, Republican, Gary. Exceptionally good construction weather in 1929 and 1930 likewise bore a part in the failure to match federal funds, by rapidly depleting the state’s highway balance, Titus said. Senator Charles R. Strey, Republican, Wabash, is chairman of t.ie committee, and other members are Senators Anderson Ketchum, Democrat, Greensburg; Glenn R. Slenker, Republican. MonticeUo, and William F. Dennigan, Democrat, Vincennes. PENSION LAWS IN 13 STATES
Deluse Thinks Indiana Will Be Progressive This Season
Indianapolis, Feb. >.—rUP) thirteen states now have old agt tension laws, with Delaware th< atest to enact such a relief meas ire, according to Otto P. Deluse ndianapolis, chairman of the stall tld age pension commission of the fraternal Order of Eagles. Deluse said after the Delaware egislature killed a pension bill a* ts session two years ago, cost o!' idministering that form of relie' vas assumed by Alfred I. Dupon » mtil such time as the state sav, fit to adopt such a plan. Dupont was head of the commis Ron which drafted the Delaware hill, declaring “the opportunity it ;elf to extend—not charity—bn!
iustice.”
“Throughout Indiana old men md women are waiting in poorhouses for the time to come when they again can become members if society, many of them as eagerly as a convict awaits pardon oi parole,” Deluse said. “It is unthinkable that our legislature will allow any considera tiou to cause it to act in such a manner as to bring disappoint j ment to these aged ones.” Governors of 14 states, in iuaii i gural addresses or speeches to legislatures this year, either have urged enactment of pension bills or indicated a favorable attitude, Deluse said. He predicted that more than one third of the states will have oid age pension provisions at the end of the 1931 legislative sessions. o - .
