Lincoln’s Birthday Today all of the northern states honor the memory of Abraham Lincoln, who lived in Indiana during his formative years, from the age of 14 to 21. The following remarks were made by Marshall F. Kizer, Indiana senate Democratic leader, yesterday on the floor of the state senate. “I rise on a point of privilege to extoll the virtues of a great Hoosier, one who came to this state in the very year that Indiana was admitted to the Union, one who, after becoming President of this nation, made his first major address just a block-and-a-half away from where I stand now. “I do this because On or about February 12 many member of this august body will proceed to claim political kinship with this great Hoosier. Tor their edification I should like to paraphrase the words of the great man himself: There was once in this country a man by the name of Abraham Lincoln, supposed to be a Republican —a man whose principles and policies are not very prevalent among Republicans today. "Or who, among the Republicans today, as they speak of the Great Emancipator, will say with Lincoln, as he did in 1854: "There is no permanent class of hired laborers among us. Twenty-five years ago I was a hired laborer. The hired laborer of yesterday labors on his own account today, and will hire others to labor for him tomorrow. “No, expressions like these are not very prevalent among those who today would call themselves Lincoln Republicans. It was under Abraham Lincoln that the first income tax was passed, the first real application of the "ability-to-pay” principle that the Republicans of today so vociferously attack in their efforts to keep the little man paying the major tax load. "It was under Lincoln that the first withholding tax on dividends was passed. “It was under Lincoln that the first effort was made to change the complexion and the vanity of the U .S. Supreme Court by adding new members to it. “Which of the Republican orators of today will repeat to their constitutents in 1963 what Abe Lincoln said in 1854: . £l:.,——— The legitimate object of government is ‘to do for the people what needs to be done, but which they cannot, by individual effort, do at all, or do so well for themselves’.” "Gentlemen, can you repeat these words of Lincoln to your constituents at home, or wherever you will celebrate Lincoln’s birthday, and come back to these halls to sit on your hands once more?”

Legislature Pays Lincoln Tribute

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Lawmaking activities came to a halt today while the Republican-dom-inated Indiana Legislature paid tribute to Abraham Lincoln. Sen. Robert L. Brokenburr, RIndianapolis, one of two Negro members of the legislature, delivered the traditional Lincoln Day address to a joint session in the House chamber. The ceremonies caused a further delay in Senate action on a lengthy calendar already set baek by Monday’s deadline for introduction of bills in the upper chamber. The flood of bills to beat the deadline kept the Senate in session until mid-afternoon and prevented any action on the calendar. Among the bills introduced was one by Sen. Donald Yeagley, DSouth Bend, to authorize county councils to conduct referendums on whether citizens of the counties prefer Central or Eastern Standard Time or any combination of the two. Borderline Counties The bill is aimed primarily at counties lying along or near the time zone boundary established by the Interstate Commerce Commission. Several such counties, technically in the central zone, actually observe eastern time by a decision of local governing bodies. Sen. Robert Peterson, D-Roches-ter, introduced a pair of resolutions which would reduce drastically the number of elected state officials and would provide -for the governor and lieutenant governor to be members of the same party. One resolution would provide that the governor appoint the secretary of state, state auditor and state treasurer. A similar bill, affecting the attorney general, was introduced last week by Sen. Melville Watson, D-Greenfield. Peterson’s second resolution would provide that a party’s candidates for governor and lieutenant governor be placed in the same column on the ballot with the same vote counting for both. Aroused Auditor Meanwhile State Auditor Dorothy Gardner fired another shot in her battle against reduction of her authority. Sen. Keith McCormick, R-Lebanon, offered an amendent to the law creating the Data Processing Division to exclude elected state officials from its provisions. Mrs. Gardner has resisted sug-

I Modern Etiquette | I — By Bsberta Lee + Q. If there is to be no catering services for a wedding reception, is it permissible to ask friends to help out? A. This would depend upon how close these friends are and upon their personal reactions to such a request. Some persons would think it an honor, while others would think it an imposition. Q. Is the black-bordered type of mourning stationery still in good use? A. This has not been in “popular” usage for many years. If, however, you still feel that you’d like to use it, your paper should be white with a narrow black border ranging from Vi to 1/32 of an inch in width. Q. When eating a baked potato at the dinner table, is it correct to extract the potato from its skin and mash it on the plate? A. It is generally considered most proper to split the potato, and then eat it from the skin. Lake County Escapee Held In California CROWN POINT, Ind.

Berne Sewage Plans Approved By Slate INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The Indiana Stream Pollution Control Board scheduled a hearing for March 20 on the alleged pollution of a creek by Greenwood, a mushrooming city which already has outgrown its five-year-old sewage treatment plant. Greenwood built the plant in 1957 to serve a community of 6,000. The plant is overloaded due to a population increase to 7,600 by 1961 and even more now, and the board has been informed that Pleasant Run Creek is polluted due to the overload. Progress reports received at the board’s meeting Monday indicated comprehensiveness of the state’s sewage treatment program.
