Indianapolis, Feb. 13.—(UP) Governor Harry G. Leslie today vetoed the House bill providing increase of the mortgage exemption from $1,000 to $1,300.

WSHWAYMUS GET ATTENTION

Indianapolis, Feb. 19.—(UP)— Consideration of the highway commission “Ripper” bill faced the state Senate today as a result of Senator Anderson Ketchum’s motion yesterday that the committee on roads report out the measure within 24 hours. Heated debating was expected over the measure, which provides for creation of a highway commission of four full-time members to receive $6,000 annually and expenses. Continued debate was expected in the House on the Hartzell Senate bill to prevent the state boards of health and education from condemning school buildings. The Senate yesterday afternoon passed a measure limiting the size and weight of trucks and busses, despite vigorous opposition from northern Indiana solons. The bill limits vehicles to a length of 33 feet for single vehicles and 40 feet for combinations; width to eight feet and heighth to 12 feet. Weight is limited to 16,000 pounds to each

axle.

Senators Lee J. Hartzell, Republican, Fort Wayne, and C. Oliver Holmes,. Republican, Gary, led the opposition with contentions that such a law would cripple the pres ent truck manufacturing and haul

ing industries.

Senator Alonzo H. Lindley, Republican, Kingman, pointed out that similar 'bills had been introduced in the past two sessions, and . that each time it was argued that the truckmen had not had sufficient time in which to prepare for

the drastic chances.

The Senate voted 25 to 21 against a measure legalizing employment of youths between 16 and 18 years of age, and. authorizing the board of education, instead of the Indus trial board, to define “hazardous occupations for children,” and to

issue work permits.

During the day, 15 measures were considered on third reading and nine were passed. Eleven House bills were passed to engrossment and third reading and one House bill was adopted. Among the eight bills introduced in the Senate was f the Full Crew Train bill, which had been killed in the House a few days ago. It provides that a crew of five men be maintained on all trains. A measure introduced by Senator Earl Rowley, Republican, Laporte, would force payment of license fees on all autos owned by govern-

mental units.

A salary increase of from $1,000 to $2,000 would be given mayors of cities owning public utility plants, under a bill passed on third reading by the House and sent to the Senate. The increase, which would be in addition to regular salary, would be paid out of profits of the plants. It was argued by proponents of the measure that the mayors are entitled to the extra pay because of the extra work such

utilities entail.

Hammer Killer Is Found Guilty

Boonville, Ind., Feb. 73.—A jury in Warrick Circuit court here yesterday afternoon returned a verdict of first degee murder against Shirley McNeeley, charged with slaying his mother, his stepfather and his uncle,’ and fixed the punishment at life imprisonment. The jurors deliberated twenty-three and a half hours. The jury disregarded the defend)ant’s insanity plea and found McNeeley sane at thevtime of the killings, which took place near Tennyson last Dec. 26. He confessed slaying his victims with a hammer. The prisoner, 35-year-old world war veteran, never changed expression when the foreman announced the verdict. He appeared pale and worn, however. In the trial testimony was presented showing that McNeeley was shell shocked during the war. Judge Youngblood deferred sentence until Friday.

NOTICE TO BIDDERS

Notice is hereby given that the Board of Commissioners of Delaware County, Indiana, will receive sealed bids and proposals on Wednesday, February 25, 1931, at the Auditor’s Office up to the hour of 10:00 a. m. for the furnishing of one (1) calculating machine for use in Auditor’s Office.

WOULD LESSEN RATES ON LOANS

Measure Would Assist Borrowers of Small Sums,

Indianapolis, Feb 13.—(UP)—Reduction of the legal monthly interest rates for loans under $300 made by personal finance companies, from three and one-half to two and one-half per cent, appeared probable today as the result of a decision made last night by the House judiciary B committee. The decision was reached by the committee after a public hearing on three bills, all aimed as a blow at tjie so-called “loah shark” evil. Favorable action of the majority for the two and one-half per cent rate will be recommended as an amendment to the bill of Representative Clyde Karrer. Democrat, Indianapolis, which at present calls for an interest rate of only one per cent per month. Karrer said he did not object to raising the limit to two or two and one-half per cent, so long as no higher rate was ■ granted. At the same session, the majority of the committee derided to recommend indefintie postponement of a bill presented by Repreentative William Wilson, Democrat, Greenfield, which provided that petty loan companies could charge no more than six per cent per annum on loans requiring two 01 more indo rf, e r s.

Buffalo, N. Y-, Feb. ?9.—(Upj—> Major General Smediey D. Butler plans to retire from the service next fall, he announced here after an address last night before the University Club of Buffalo. He already had notified officials at Washington of his intention, he said, and expected no refusal of his application to be filed soon. “No. I’m not retiring because of the Mussolini incident,” he told questioners. The fiery marine corps officer had been ordered court martiallhd for a speech in which he implied the Italian premier was a hit and run driver. His reference was to that incident. “I’m going to deliver a series of lectures between October, 1931 and May, 1932,” he said.

STERILIZATION BILL IN SENATE

Senator Makes Attack on State Board of Health.

Indianapolis, Feb. 1.3.—(UP)— Unanimous passage of a hill providing for sterilization of criminals convicted of felonies in which human life has been threatened pr destroyed, and charges that collusion existed between the state board of health and contractors, in condemning school buildings throughout the state, plunged the House of Representatives into an atmosphere of excitement late yesterday. The charges against the state board of health were made by several representatives during debate on a hill by Senator Lee J. Hartzell, Republican, Ft. Wayne, which would give home rule in condemnation of school buildings by removing jurisdiction in such matters from the state board of health and the state department of education. It had already been passed hy tho Senate. Representatives Edward E. Eikenbary, Wabash, and Donald Vandorveer, Milford, both Democrais, ted in the assault on the health board. Eikenbary charged that two fine buildings erected in his home county within the last ten years had been condemned, on the pretense that they were not sanitary. thinYpresTdent WOULD VETO BILL

House Passes Veterans’ Aid Plan by Bir Vote.

Washington, Feb. Ya.—(UP)— Adoption of a veterans’ loan bill over administration objections that it represents a step toward the pension system was the agreed business today of an impatient Senate. Veto by President Hoover seems assured. Every obstacle short of a veto message already had been thrown ih the way of the bill by the President, Secretary of Treasury Mellon and other administration spokesmen. But Republicans in the Senate are bolting. In the face of administration protests, the House had passed the bill 363 to 39, with Speaker Longworth leading the Rebels. Yesterday the Senate finance committee reported the bill favorably and without amendments by a vote of 13 to 3. Undersecretary of Treasury Mills pleaded with the committed to restrict the benefits of the measure to veterans actually in need. ’ The bill, which would allow World war veterans to borrow up to 50 per cent of the matured value of their adjusted service certificates, will be open to amendment in the Senate today. Senate leaders believe the bill will go through without change. Under that program it should reach the President tonight or tomorrow. If passage is delayed until tomorrow or Saturday, it still could reach the White House in time to prevent a pocket veto. o

r r. 2 < • Belvidere Wizard Under indictment

Belvidere, 111., Feb. x9.—The business ventures that elevated Albert W. Benham from factory to financier plunged him into court yesterday. The erstwhile wizard of finance, whose dividends of 10 to 20 per cent aroused the countryside, was indicted by the Boone county grand “jury on charges of operating a confidence game and obtaining money under false pretenses. A bench warrant was issued for his arrest by Circuit Judge E. D. Shurtleff. Benham was missing from his home, but friends said he would return to face the charges. Four indictments were returned on each charge and the court fixed Benham’s bonds at $12,000.
