SEEK REPEAL OF AUTO FEES LAW Transfer And Warehouse Men Want License Fee Law Abolished Indianapolis. Ind., April 6. —(United Press) —A statewide campaign to secure repeal of motor vehicle license fees was planned today by the Indiana Transfer and Warehouse Men’s Association. The association will work tor election of members of the legislature next falPpledged to the repeal of the fees law. To make up the revenue now raised by the license fees, the association favors a further increase in the state gasoline tax, which was boosted from 2 i to 3 cents by the 1925 legislature. I The vehicle fees, according to mentihers of the legislative committee of the association, are not a fair method of charging autos and trucks for the use of state highways and are in reality, double taxation. A gasoline tax sufficiently high to raise the necessary funds for road building and maintenance is the most equitable method, they declared. 0 — — Michigan City Woman To Address Women Voters Indianapolis, April 6. — (United Press.) —Mrs. H.

To take care of this class of students who teach in the seven and eight months schools, the mid-spring term was again .started after it had been dropped from some little time and lust year, it proved popular. The majority of the regular courses are off. rod even though this term overlaps I hot hthe spring and summer quarters. I Much of th iswork is under the reguI lar instructors although a number of 1 1) . wteachers are called into use on I b >th the mid-spring and summer terms.
