The Dcmoerati. however. have taken the wind out ot the sails of the Republican maneuvers in the introduction of sniping legislation aimed to bring about legislative investigations ot various departments of state government. The Democratic Senate catised the Republican leadership, if any J to back track on their proposed probes by wisely offering every co-' operation even agreeing to provide sufficient appropriation to carry on any investigation Instituted by the new House (majority. Taken aback by this maneuver and by the' Democratic demand that any probe instituted must , in the interest of time and to the best advantage of the taxpayers, be consumated dur-j iug the session of the legislature,! the Republican attack of "Rrobitls"' has been chilled.

Director of the Gross Income tax Department, to furnish them with a list of names and,amounts of delinquent grosb incomg taxpayers. This resolution, of course is fu tile because of the secrecy clause of the state gross income tax law, and even a resolution of Uje House of Representatives can not force any citizen, much less the director of a state department, to violate explicit provisions of any Jaw.

It Is likely, however, upon advice of Democrat leadership, the House win be furntsnea. at a later dste, the amount of tax delinquencies and suggestions as to how the Republicans might obtain a list of delinquents. Os course this could by obtained only iby repeal of the secrecy clause ot the Gross Income Tax law. Definite Indications that the Republicans have no unified or corapresenslve program Is seen in a Study of the bills thus far introduced in the House of Representa •Ives. For Instance, in their attacks on the Auto License Department they have introduced six tills, all aiming at a reduction of automobile license tees, but all different. Rep. William Jenner of Shoals, Republican floor leader in the Senate, and Senator Ben Hur of lx>banon, namesake of the famous charioteer, introduced a bin providing for a 1.'1.00 flat fee on all pleasure cars. Rep. H. W. Evans of Newcastle, Re-

9 Asks Anti-Graft Code s !r- | * iKI ' Bfwc- ■ —■ HtF ’ w 1 £ i i 1 B Gov. John J. Bricker ' In his first message to the Ohio legislature at Columbus, Gov. John J. Bricker, Republican, urges the enactment of a permanent' anti-graft code, providing removal from office of any public official who -awards contracts to other than the lowest and best bidders. Bricker is shown delivering his message in person. I publican floor leader In the House i and Rep. Glenn Slenker of Monticello, Republican caucus chairman, introduced a bill providing tor a $4 ■ tax. Rep. Roy J. Harrison, of Attica, rnd Robert A. Hoover, of Goshen, both Republicans, have a bill which would make the fee a flat $5.00. Rep. Frank Millis of Chambellsburg, Republican, introduced another bill lixing the fee at $4 and Rep. Hubert M. Copeland of Madison County, in his bill, would fixe the rate at $6.00. The same lack of cooperation among themselves is seen in the Republican attack on the Gross Income Tax law. Rep. Guy Dausman, of Goshen, Republican, would repeal the Gross Income Tax law entirely. Rep. Hoover has a biil to reduce the percent of tax from 1% to % of 1% while Rep. Millis, in another bill, would reduce the retail rate from 1% to and reduce the exemption from $3,000 to SI,OOO. It is very likely that a law will be enacted providing for a return of the primary law. Os course there is division of opinion in both parties concerning the primary law, out the concensus of opinion, at least among the rank and file of Demorrats is that the statewide features of the law. repealed by Republican legislature in 1929, will be re-enact-ed at least insofar as the Governorship and the U. S. Senatorship are concerned. Senator John Bright Webb, Indianapolis, Democrat, has introduced a bill providing for the election of all state officials in a primary on the pluaality basis. This would leave only the adoption of a platform and selection of delegates in the national convention in the state convention. Rep. Winfield K. Denton, Democrat, of Evansville, has a bill in the House providing for 'the nomination of the Governor and U. S. Senator by direct primary by a majority vote. Another bill in the Senate, which is now up for second reading, provides for a central counting system. Senator Webb also has in preparation another bill, controversial in; nature, but which is likely to re- 1 ceive considerable support, creating a homestead law in Indiana and proriding for tax exemption on owneroccupied homes up to $5,000 of its appraised value. Several other states have enacted such a law. Just how much tax revenue such a law would deduct from the property tax bill has not been determined, but It is certain the bill will receive almost universal support from home owners throughout tho state. Senator Webb seems to thrive on introduction of controversial measures, for he also introduced the MU setting up a state athletic commission to lake over control of all high school athletics. The measure, if successful, would oust A. L. Trester. Czar of high school basketball and other athletics, and abolish the Indiana High School Athletic Association a private corporation controlled by Trester. Senator Webb proceeds on the theory that siheo the taxpayers have spent mlßious of dollars In building gymnasiums and high school athletics fields throughout the state, the taxpayers themselves should cQntrol high school athletics and that the most, efficient means for this control would be the setting up of a state board. The’ Webb bill provides that ail funds over aud above actual expenses shall be returned to school funds ot the various school units, to be applied to the reduction of school tax levies. > e 50U Sheets B‘/2Xll, 16-Tb.
