Fell Asleep Snyder was northbound and his auto began to cross the center line. He applied the brakes, causing the auto to go out of control and slam into a bridge bonnister and then an abutment, before coming to rest in a small creek.

Franklin suffered a minor injury when his truck was hit by a train. Full details appear elsewhere in today’s Daily Democrat. STATE SENATE (Continued from Page One) apolis, warned again Sunday night that “I do not intend to vote for any tax increase.” The one-third increase in gross income would produce $l5O million per biennium, which is $77 million less than the budget now in conference committee. Some lawmakers have proposed that the tax rate on wages and salaries—now 1% per cent—be hiked to 2Vz per cent which would raise sufficient revenue to meet the budget and allow for a surplus. House Speaker Richard Guthrie predicted that the special session now entering its 14th day “will run for another week and a half or possibly two weeks.” Legally, the special session can continue to April 20Guthrie said the House probably will take up reapportionment today or Tuesday. He said the House is hopeful the Senate will pass several bills it has before it so the representatives will have these to work upon. Guthrie said several absences are anticipated in the House this week. He said he is contemplating a recess Wednesday so he and others mdy attend funeral services of the father of Rep, Rex Early of Vincennes. Guthrie said he will ask the Republican caucus “some day this week” for its views on a S2O per diem pay which has been suggested for legislators. Stronger Buttons When sewing buttons on trousers, overalls, coats, or other garments where there is a good deal of strain, try sewing a smaller companion button ether side of the material. This makes for greater .strength, and also prevents tearing of the mateaal. Incidentally, dental floss makes a tough thread for button sewing.

Governor May Call For Special Election

INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Governor Welsh said today he might consider calling a special election to fill a death-created vacancy in the Indiana Senate if the present special session of the legislature fails to agree on a budget-tax program. But Welsh emphasized later that “I’m giving no consideration to the calling of a special election at this time.” Welsh made the statement in commenting n the circulation of petitions in Fayette, Rush and Shelby Counties during the weekend prevailing on the governor to “obey the law of Indiana” and call a special election to fill a vacancy created by the death last December of Sen. Richard Newhouse, R-Morristown. Newhouse’s death reduced the Republican majority in the Senate, during the 61-day biennial session Jan. 10-March 12 and the special session now in progress, from 26-24 to 25-24. This left the GOP powerless because 26 votes is the constitutional majority needed to pass bills. Honings, Glass, Hughes The petitions were circulated by R. H. Runnings of Connersville, John Hughes of Rushville and George Glass of Shelbyville. Runnings is in the real estate business and the others are attorneys. They called their organization “The Committee for Representation.” The petition pointed out that the cost of a soecial election would be no greater than the cost of two days of the special session of the legislature. Welsh said he believed a special election would be of no help in the special session now in progress because it would require at least 30 days after an election were called before it could bei held- By that time, the legal 40day maximum length of the special session would have expired. “TTiis might be something to consider if we were going to have a second special session,” WeLsh said. He previously had told the lawmakers that if they failed to enact at this session a budget for the 1963-65 biennium and a tax program to meet any needs for additional revenue, he would unhesitatingly call a second special session. Democrat Would Win? Welsh said it was likely a Democrat would win, which would not i be of much help in unsnarling the

present problem created by the even division of senators politically. j If a Democrat won, the membership would be 25-25 and a vote by Republican Lt. Gov. Richard O. Ristine as presiding officer would be required to break a party-lines tie. Jack New, administrative assistant to Welsh, said a special election vote would be very light and mayors in the area, most of them Democrats, would have a lot to do with getting out the vote “and it would be mostly Democratic.” New implied the Democratic candidate would be likely to be
