Itx o t ASSEMBLY RECESSES (Continued From Pago One) 7 house floor without recommenda- ‘ tions were measures recodifying ■ the state’s transportation statutes I anld banning mechanical music , in taverns. Taking advantage of the weekend adjournment, the powerful Indiana municipal league appealed to 500 mayors of Hoosier cities and towns to make a strong fight against a railroad crossing signal bill which has been reported favorably in the house. Mayor Vincent Yonkey of Crown Point, league secretary, sent telegrams to the mayors, asserting that the bill would cost local communities from $3,000,000 to $5,000,000 a year for the installation and maintenance of signal devices. The bill would permit the Indiana public service commission to determine the share to be paid by cities and by railroads for the signals and watchmen. Under present law. the railroads bear , the full expense. ' Youkey said that (he commission also could determine where ' signals should be* placed, could I THERE'S widespread speculation in Washington about the visit of Edward J. Flynn, former Democratic national committee chairman, to Moscow, and whether it has any connection with the reported Russian request for 10 billion dollars post-war rehabilitation loan from the U. S.

vacate and barricade existing streets and prevent the laying out of new streets over railroads and put the full cost on the cities. He charged that the bill would make cities liable for damage Suits for accidents. “This bill violates sacred American principles in using taxpayers’ money for private corporations,” Youkey said. o tn 1845 when it was founded, tlie Mutual Life Insurance Co. amt other similar institutions charged women 50 percent more for policies than men. The reason: Medical science liad not yet minimized the hazards of childbirth.
