MINORITY (Continued from Page One) down in the Senate and the House must concur in the amendment before the bill could go to Governor Welsh for his signature. Kizer’s omnibus amendment which was rejected called for a 2 per cent tax on motor vehicles, repeal of the poll and household goods taxes, gross income taxation of banks, and exemption from property taxes of field crops and those stored on the producer’s grounds. Kizer said he had no doubt his amendment would have gone to the Indiana Supreme Court for a constitutionality test, but he believed the warehouse bill would go there, too, even without an amendment. Sen. John Shawley, R-Michigan City, said Kizer’s package had “everything in it except the kitchen sink." Democrats planned to try to insert a poll tax repeal amendment, too, before the measure left second reading. Meanwhile, the Senate may receive for consideration today a biennial operating budget bill of $1,123,000, about s3l million less than its size when a committee there took up where the House left off. Sen. Charles Maddox of the Senate Finance Committee said the group was near the end of its task after cutting $22.5 million from five retirement funds, adding $8 million to universities and colleges, and leaving public school tuition support uchanged at $340 million. The surgery was done Tuesday night, and Maddox expected the budget bill might be ready for reporting out to the Senate floor this afternoon. The budget, which the House

defeated last Friday and refused to reconsider Tuesday, represented a reduction from the $1,154,000,000 form in which it came out of the House convening as a committee of the whole some days ago. Senate leaders had agreed Tuesday after conferring with Governor Welsh that the budget must be handled before a tax program is enacted. There was more optimism than anything previously this session that a compromise tax program to raise up to S3OO million in additional funds needed for the next two years, would be hammered out in the waning days of the 61-day session due to end next Monday. Welsh was more optimistic than the GOP Senate leadership about the impact of the latest of a series of meetings he has held with various legislative leaders. He saw the possibility of a coalition tax program being adopted which might include a sales tax, an adjusted gross income tax and some means of plugging the loophole on interstate sales. Ristine is Pessimistic Lt. Gov. Richard Ristine was more pessimistic. “I wouldn’t go so far as io say now there is a possibility oi an agreement” on a tax program, he commented. “Some things are possible but are highly improbable. We haven’t taken the tax program up with the Republican caucus yet” Republican caucus chairman Sen. Roy Conrad said “there was one concrete agreement—that the budget comes first. Nothing else has been agreed upon but the air has been cleared somewhat.” Senate Finance chairman Charles Maddox said late Tuesday night that he believes the billionplus operating budget will be ready to report to the Senate this

afternoon. He said plans are to emasculate a House bill so the committee can write the budget into it. There has been some discussion about attaching the operating budget to the construction budget but Maddox pointed out this would mean at least another 24-hour delay. “It will take at least another day for the committee to review the construction budget,” Maddox MIA I present plans are to send the budget to a conference committee once it passes the Senate with the hope the joint committee can work out an agreement with the House that will make the budget palatable. President Pro Tern D. Russell Bontrager confirmed however, that “I think the strong feeling of opposition to consideration of a sales tax has weakened." He said one of the Democratic Senate leaders in attendance brought up the question of a 2 per cent sales tax in lieu of the 3 per cent bill which the Republican-controlled House enacted. Bontrager said *tl feel we have moved a little closer to common ground. I got the impression the Governor is thinking in terms of the 2 per cent sales tax, perhaps with food or drugs exempted or with a tax credit—more likely the tax credit.” Bontrager said he suggested the Senate enact the 1962-63 budget by merely changing the calendar dates “but the idea seemed to fall on deaf ears.” New York Stock Exchange Prices MIDDAY PRICES A.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH «. 1963

Railroad Crossings Are Serious Problem The Decatur city council Tuesday night took steps in an attempt to correct a serious problem with the Pennsylvania railroad which again is causing the city administration trouble. Once again the Pennsylvania has let its railroad crossing in Decatur, especially the Monroe crossing, literally to “go to pieces” without repairing the crossings. Mayor Gage, city attorney Anderson, and the five councilmen are again beginning to receive numerous complaints concerning the crossings-something which they cannot easily correct. Mayor Gage said he received a complaint recently from a local resident who had two springs in his automobile broken when the vehicle “fell” into one of the nu- ' merous holes in the crossing on Monroe street. Trouble Spot The crossings of the Pennsylvania railroad in Decatur have become : a real trouble spot for the city council in the past two or three ‘ years. Just a few months ago the crossings became very bad and it took numerous letters, etc., before the railroad would repair the crossings. The council asked chief of police James M. Borders if in the next few days he would take some pictures of the crossing on Monroe street. These pictures, along with a letter, and the editorial 1 that appeared in Tuesday’s Daily Democrat, will then be sent to the ' state public service commission ( in Indianapolis. “Not Even Thanks” Theodore Baker, city street department foreman, toki the councilmen that last year the street department put several tons of stones in the chuckholes in the t Pennsylvania crossings, for which the city never received any reim- • bursement. Baker said that the . city never “even received a thank you” from the railroad company. It is hoped that by contacting the i public service commission and sending them pictures, they will i “get on” the Pennsylvania and get them to repair the crossings. The Monroe street crossing is > the worst, by far. of the Pennsy crossings. One report was that a car was actually stuck in one of the holes. Another local resident reported that the sudden jolt of hitting one of the numerous holes killed the engine of his car and the vehicle was ahhost struck in the rear by another vehicle. z
