WASMUTH TRIES TO BREAK TAX BILL DEADLOCK (Continued From Page Ode.) ommlttee on the Johnson bill has •cached an agreement. BOTH HOUSES’ SESSIONS SHORT. Both branches of the legislature held 'hort sessions this morning. The senate "was called to meet at 9 o’clock, but immediately recessed until 9:45 for want of a constitutional quorum. The session which began at 9:45 lasted <>rtj-flvo minutes. The house did not convene until 10:30. Immediately after Speaker Eschbach ailed the house to order Representative Mendenhall made a motion to recess until 3 o’clock this afternoon. The ways and means committee is eady to report on three bills, according !o Representative Mendenhall, who is chairman. They are the Marion county and the city of Indianapolis war memorial bills and the bill to authorize state educational Institutions to borrow money. “A motion to recess until this afteri oon Is the best thing,” said Representative Mendenhall, explaining that If a roll call were taken, and it was found that a constitutional quorum was not present, Jhe bouse would be forced to adjourn until tomorrow. “If the legislators will be present at 3 o’clock we may be able to finish the work by night,” he added. “I believe that there are enough members in the city to make a quorum. GO OCT AND GET MEMBERS. “If there are not, the only recourse will be to arrest and bring into the house the members who have gone home.” Conference committee report on the 'ohnson home rule bill will be delayed until agreement on the Klper curative measure is reached by the committee. The reports will be Introduced simultaneously, according to Representative Charles L. Mendenhall of Hendricks county, one of the members of the joint conference committee on the Johnson bill. Representative Mendenhall today said that agreement on the Johnson bill has been reached. After the senate committee refused to accept the offer of the house members to adopt the senate amendments, another meeting was held In which the amendments were changed so as to bring about the agreement, Representative Mendenhall said. “We arc now waiting for the report *>n the Kiper bill,” he said. “The purpose of the delay Is to ascertain the specific provisions In the Kiper measure. “The two bills must be in harmony, and If our action agrees with that of the committee on the curative bill, then they will both be sent to the house at the same time” The representative from Hendricks cotinty intimated that if provisions in the Kiftr measure did not harmonize with those of the Johnson bill another conference on, the Johnson bill would be had. SOME SENATORS WILE STAND PAT. In face of the optimism of Gov. Goodrich concerning adjournment, there are some members of the house who see no prospects for adjournment because they claim they stan i for legalization and will not recede from their position. Senator James J. Nedjl, republican, of Lake county introduced a motion at last night's session asking that the governor explain his attitude. The energetic efforts of Senator Rosooe Kiper, Boonville, the author of the Kiper substitute bill for the Tuthill legalizing bill as passed by the house, turned the tide during a roll call on a motion of Senator Donald P. Strode. Kokomo, to lay the motion of Senator Nejdl on the table. The motion to lay the Nejdl motion on the table was earned by a vote of 23 ayes and 12 noes. Those voting in favor of tabling the Nejdl motion were Alldredge. Balnuin, Bowers, Dobyns, Duncan. English. Furnas, Hogston, James. Kiper, Kline, McConaha, McCray, McKinley. Masters, Metzger, Munton, Negley. Seif, Southworth, Strode, Tague and Wolf son. Those voting against tabling of the motion were Arnold, Bracken, Brown, J ravens, Decker, Eisner, Hepler, HumUreys, Laney, McCullough. Meemer and Nejdl. Those not voting Beardsley, Dor- j roll, Douglass, Duffem Ersklne, Grant. Hagerty, Koleem, Maier, Ratts, Signs and Smith. NEJDL ATTACKS OUTSIDE INFLUENCES. In a spirited address from the floor of the senate In support of his motion to ask the governor appear before the senate and explain his views of the deadlocked measures, Senator Nejdl attacked the “outside Influences.” which were working on certain committees and cansing them to get further apart from an agreement than when they went into conference.

He said that under the present law the surveyors are not paid until the bonds for the roads are sold and In some instances surveyors wait more than a year for their money. Senator Negley said that under the amendments, surveyors could file claims for work done as far back as twelve years. APPOINTS A COMMITTEE. After the senate failed to concur in the house amendments, the chair apponted a conference committee cotslstlng of Senators Balnnm, Dobyns and Nejdl to confer with a committee of three from the house. Lieut. Gov. Bush before the senate adjourned until 3 o’clock, said the chair favpred paying the senators only for the days actually spent In attending the sessions. Senator Negley Insisted the law takes care of the situation, but the lieutenant governor Insisted that “the necessity of an economic administration falls on the chair” and that the chair would not authorize the payment of any senator for time not actually spent In attending the session except those excused by the senate. Senator Eisner said even If the chair took the stand as indicated, every senator could draw his pay. The lieutenant governor said the chair would not recede from its position, as some of the senators have Ignored telegrams and telephone calls asking them to return. The lieutenant governor closed the ari.umint by saying that If the absent senators obtained their full pay It will he by due process of law.

The program at Turkey Kun was in charge of President Hancock. SENATOR M’CORMICK LATE IN ARRIVING. Due to the late arrival of Senator Me. Cormlck, addresses by Senator New, Mr McCray and others preceded his speech. The outstanding feature of the day was supposed to be the address of Mr. McCormick, but people here agreed that whatever his address held in store for them It could not possibly outdo the chicken dinner, served picnic style, from 11:30 to 2 o'clock. From the way the editors went after that dinner, with appetites whetted !>> the long ride of the morning, it was hard to decide which held the greatest treat, the day's outing or the chiekcu "spread.” At noon today those who had been keeping track of the arrivals at the park stated that more than 1,000 had arrived. They were still coming up to 1 o'clock, the time Senator McCormick was scheduled to "Are his broadside” Into the portals of the democratic party. If the program Is carried out without hitch the "doins" will be over by 5 o’clock this evening. And If the interest manifested early today keeps up It will have been "some day.”

Kerensky nsks that the blockade barriers surrounding Russia be broken down.

He ridicules the fenrs expressed In England aud France that a red Bona p*rie will arise In Russia who will sweep all Europe with his armies. “Russia will become the greut peaceful democracy of Europe,” Is the prediction made by the former Russian premier. Without explaining in detail, Kerensky forecasts that the bolshevik movement will pass. He declares, however, that the allies, after making war on th- Russians for upward of two years, w!l act and them tender." "The allies are reaping the tares they sowed", said the former premier. LITTLE DIFFERENCE TO FRIENDS. "To the real friends of democratic Russia there la no difference whether the bolshevlkl accept the offer of a general peace conference In London or not. “The allies have stumbled from one error to another, but singular to say, they still persist in the belief that their course is the correct one. “In battling bolshevism with armed forces on Russian soli, the allies have not only offended Russian nntlonal sentiment, but have created a powerful enemy. This feeling of enmity Is now controlled by the bolshevlkl. “The allies find themselves face to face with a giant of their own creation and they do not know what to do. “It is a little late for the allies to advise moderation and unselfishness on the part of Russian bolshevlkl after the nines' have waged war on them unceasingly. "I believe that Poland show.d remain free within her ethnographic limits. “But she should co-operate with free Russia." SHOULD BEGIN AT HOME. ABERDEEN, S.

U. S. POSTAL PROFIT RUNS INTO MILLIONS WASHINGTON. July 30.—Profits of the United States government from Its international money order business amount to millions of dollars. It wts revealed here today. The conditions which made these profits possible are the same that Charles Ponzl of Boston say* he took advantage of to make several million dollars in the last few months.
