SPECIAL SESSION MISTAKE —WCRA Y Senator Explains Vote Against Suffrage Amendment. Declaring that a special session of tbs legislature should never have been called, Senator Franklin McCray of Indianapolis, who voted against the federal suffrage amendment yesterday, issued a statement today explaining his vote. Because of a limited time given him for the explanation of his vote, he was unable to make his stand clear in the senate. The statement follows: “This session should never have been called. There was no public emergency requiring it. All matters within the purview of legislation are proper subjects for any duly organized legislature to act upon, and if any measure proves to be unworkable or not satisfactory it is always within the reach of any sueseedlng session of the legislature to be modified or repealed as the public interest might require, but a change in the structure of the government—a change in the constitution—when once made is forever beyond the reach of any succeeding legislature and before such change is made it should be submitted to the electorate of the state. "The suffrage amendment was released by congress to the people of the states last April and should have been made issue in the next election. To call this special session was to deprive the people of an opportunity to be heard on this fundamental change of government, contrary to the genius of our laws aDd the spirit of our institutions. “To call the session at this time Was simply adding confusion on to confusion. If there was ever a time in the history of this and every other country when agitation should cease instead of being augmented tt is certainly now—this the hour of strikes, lockouts, injunctions, blockades, embargoes, business paralysis, soldiers still marking time on the Rhine, shortage of productions and half the world in the clutches of famine. This act.slone will entail an expense of $1,000,000 to Indiana by the time the election is over. This money should be speut. to feed the hungry and clothe the naked.” James P. Pope Dies After Long Illness The funeral of James P. Pope, 74, former Indianapolis policeman, who retired several years ago on a pension, will be held Monday afternoon from the chapel of George Herrmann, undertaker, at 620. North New Jersey street, according to present plans. Mr. Pope died Friday afternoon at his home, 918 Elm street, after being in poor health for many months. Mr. Pope and Chief of Police Jerry Kinney “ran” together on the same beat when the present chief first began his duties on the force years ago. Pope became a member of the department in August, 1883, and retired when Samuel V. Perrott assigned him to an outlying district It i.s said that he probably had few robberies and holdups staged on his beat because of tbe strictness and earnestness in cleaning his district of suspicious characters.

STATE TO PASS ON PLAZA PLAN City Memorial Project Will Be Laid Before People. The program of the Indianapolis citizens’ committee for the creation of a civic plaza and the erection of a memorial building to house the American Legion national headquarters here wdll be laid before the people in every part of the state in the next forty days. The bill authorizing the city and county to appropriate $4,750,000, and asking the legislature to appropriate about $5,000,000 to carry out the plan, will be introduced at the next special session of the legislature. C. J. Mendenhall, chairman of the ways and means committee of the house of representatives, announced to members here that the committee wonld meet in Indianapolis at 1 p. m. on the day preceding the next special session to consider the bill. No senate committee will investigate the bill until the session opens. A campaign to acquaint members of the legislature and the people generally with the proposed project, will be carried out in‘ the meantime.
‘SECOND SPECIAL SESSION CERTAIN’ (Continued From Page One.) The bill provided that the governor, the lieutenant governor and the speaker of the house of representatives should compose the commission. It carried an appropriation of $10,000,000 to pay for the land and building. Senator Tague immediately objected to the introduction o' the bill. He said he Is a member oi the American legion and that the legion does not desire that the bill should be introduced at this time. He accused the democratic senators with playing politics with the legion. Senator Eisner replied that every member of the legion at Seymour had asked him to vote for the bill. PREVENT INTRODUCTION BY 32 TO 10 VOTE. The motion that the bill be not received was finally put to h vote after considerable discussion and Its introduction was prevented by a vote of 32 to 10. Senator McCray moved to reconsider the vote and Senator Wolfson immediately moved that Senator McCray's motion be tabled. The vote to .table was 30 to 14. Repeated efforts were made by Senator Eisner to introduce a bill repealing the tax law, but he was unable to bring it before the senate. The report of the committee on senate employes brought forth another controversy. Lieut. Gov. Bush objected to the report, which asked that $5 be paid each of a number of employes, because, he said, some of the employes were not entitled to pay. Harry Styner, secretary of the senate, is an employe in tbe fire innrshel's department. “Harry Styner will not draw two salaries from the state," the lieutenant governor said. He also ordered the name of Chase Brooks, engrossing clerk, stricken from the payroll because be had not been employed by the committee. f Every effort was mrde by democratic senators, aided by Lieut. Gov. Bush, to prevent ndJoiirmno'Vit. Senator Neglc.v moved that the house be informed that the senate had nothing more to transmit. to it. The lieutenant goverror ruled that, the motion had been lost for want of a second. Senator Wolfson Immediately put the same Station and there was n chorus of seconds. The lieutenant governor refused to recognize the motion, because be said there might tie some other business to transfer to tbe house. He said be was willing to stay all night if necessary. Senator Furnas then made a motion that any expenses in excess of the appropriation for the session be paid out of tbe general fund. This was carried. Senator Wolfson put his motion for a second time and it. was passed. Senator Negley immediately moved adjournment
