Says Slate In Good Financial Condition Millis Is Speaker At County Reunion INDIANAPOLIS TINS) — Frank T. MHlfs, state commissioner of revenue, said Indiana is in a good financial condition compared to other states in an address before the Daviess county reunion in Indianapolis Sunday. Millis, who generally is regarded as a candidate for the 1956 Republican gubernatorial nomination, mid: “The state of Indiana now has an unencumbered balance of more than $76 million. This surplus has happened due to general good business conditions. In visiting other states', we find that Indiana has mat and solved problems that the other stfttes are still struggling to meet. "In accumulating this so called surplus, you may wonder whether Indiana has ' neglected any phase of state government, and the answer Is an emphatic ‘no.* Our expenditures. as compared to the general average of major functions, are more than the average." Millis pointed out that Indiana iast year spent 12 per cent of its income for welfare against an all states average of 10.9 per cent. per cent for education com- j pared to the national average of 27 per cent and 27.6 per cent for highways against the all states' average of 17 per cent. Millis said that it now is costing $26 million a month to operate the state, hut added: “We believe by economy we can cut that cost. But remember, as long as- the people keep on demanding certain services, just as long will we be faced with high costs. Can we eliminate some of these services? You can help solve that question.”

Craig And Jenner Scrap Continuing Governor Scores In Sullivan Co. Scrap INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — The conflict between Governor George N. Craig ami Senator William E. Jenner for control of the ReqmbMean state organization continued today with Craig rejoicing in a week end victory. The governor scored when Harold Downs, a farmer, was elected Sullivan county chairman to succeed another Craig man, James H. Ringer, who resigned to become registrar of the Indiana State 4Teacherß' College at Terre Haute. Aides of the governor mustered almost a full list of state employes living in Sullivan county to vote for Downs. A number were threatened with loss of their state jobs unless they supported Downs and before other, precinct committeemen was dangled the promise of promotion in state government. Claude Turner, Sullivan City chairman who obtained renomination of Mayor Thomas Grayson over Ringer's opposition, had opposed Downs. Turner said he was an independent in the Craig-Jen-ner contest. The governor probably will succeed also in a maneuver to oust a Jenner man, James G. McDonald, of Princeton, from his post as Gibson county chairman. A three man subcommittee of the GOP state committee will-hold a hearing on Aug. 26 on charges of “uegl ect ofduty. disloyalty and inefficiency” filed by a majority of the precinct committeemen of Gibson county against McDonald. The governor has two members of this subcommittee in his camp. They are Russell Robbins, of Rich--mon, tenth district chairman, and Mrs. yon L. Snyder, of Indianapolis, eleventh district vice chairman and also vice chairman of the state committee. The other member is George Chambers, of Anderson, fifth district chairman, a Jenner aide. Both sullivan and Gibson counties are in the closely contested seventh district, which went by only one vote for Craig during the last GOP reorganization struggle.
