The bills disapproved provide for the employment of school nurses, increased attention to physical culture, codification of the school laws,' assistance by the State board of education in educational work in State institutions, set forth the qualification* and tenure of city superintendents and concern the consolidation of schoora.

MEMORIAL DAY ‘BLUE. LAW’ IS PUT TO SLEEP (Continued From Fage One.) tempt to make sporting events unlawful on Independence day and compel the people to attend church on Christmas. He declared that the bill “smacks too much of Puritanism.” Senator Arthur Baxter of Indianapolis, In his first speech in the Senate, defended the Indianapolis Motor Speedway eml declared that the passage of the bill would mean a loss to that Institution. Senator Lee J. Hartnell of It. Wayne defended the bill, declaring that Memorial day had I>een for several yejirs a “day of wild orgies” and that corporations and other concerns are capitalizing the day. Senators Alonso H. Ltndley of Kingman, Estes Duncan of Cloverdale and Charles J. Buchanan of Indianapolis spoke in favor of the bilL Senator C. Oliver Holmes of Gary opposed it. Senator Holmes came to the defense of the "Puritans,” declaring that even they did not have the "blue laws” that haTe been attributed to them. REFUSES TO KILL BOAD AMENDMENTS. An attempt by a majority of the Senate Committee on Roads to kill amendment. t- lb. county unit road low ntroduced by Senator Howard A. Cann of Frankfort, failed when a minority report signed by Senator A. 11. Beardsley of Elkhart favoring passage was adopted. The majority report was for indefinite postponement. The amendments, among other things, provide that 50 per cent of the cost of a county unit road must be paid by the county, 25 per cent by the township, and 25 per cent by the owners of property abutting on the road and extending one mile nack. They also provide that a road be built on petition of 200 persons instead of fifty and that a remonstrance of a majority of owners of abutting property may prevent construction. It was charged by opponents of the amendments that they were drawn for the express purpose of killing the county unit road law and that under the bill it would be Impossible to build new roads because property owners would not stand for the huge assessments that would be levied against them. Those favoring the bill declared a farm is greatly benefited by an improved highway and the owner should be compelled to pay a proportionate share of the enhancement of the value of his land. The minority report was adopted by a vive voce vote. Senator Beardsley declared that under the present law owners of abutting property pay nothing for the construction of roads. He said the provision that they pay 25 per cent may be too severe, but he expressed the opinion that the bill was right in principle. Senator Nejdl, who signed the majority report, declared that Senator Beardsley was not present when the committee met. He said that the Cann bill would in effect kill the county unit law. He demanded to know why a repeal measure was not Introduced. He declared that the bill would make farmers pay for the roada and permit city dwellers to tear them up. He maintained that a farmer with 2,000 feet of property abutting on a road would be required to pay at least SI,OOO toward construction of the road. He said that in many cases this would be more than the land was worth. Senator Furnas asked that the minority report be adopted in order that the bill could be considered further. Objection to the majority report was made by Senator Cann, wbo said the roads committee was not in session more than fifteen minutes. This was denied by Chairman Frank Self of Corydon. Senator Cann asserted that many counties are tearing up good road3 and paving them under the provisions of the “vicious county road law.” He declnr-1 that it is not right for the value of one farm to be enhanced at the expense of others. He charged that the law was Juggled in the special session, when amendments were lost. CLAIMS FARMERS' INDORSEMENT. He sajd the bill has the Indorsement ,of the Farmers’ Federation of Boone County and the approval of members of the legislative committee of the Indiana Federation of Farmers’ Associations. There be some reason why amendments to the county unit road law are always lost, according to Senator Joseph M. Cravens of Madison, who said the bill should bare full consideration. Seantor William E. Bowers of New Haven defended the bill and Seuator Quiver Kline of Huntington charged that selfish interests are behind the proposal to kill the amendments. Senator Lindley declared the county unit law is abused. Senator Holmes asked that the law be continued until It can be thoroughly tried. Six bills were introduced and referred to committees In the morning session as follows: Fitch—To legalize certain school bonds. Judiciary B. Ratts —Amending law concerning warehouse receipts. Judiciary A. Miller—Amending law prohibiting use of seines In fishing. Criminal Code. Miller —Providing closed season for clams and mussels. Judiciary B.

CHAMBER OPPOSES UTILITIES BILL The hoard of directors of the Indlanapolla Chamber of Commerce hits adopted a resolution proposed by the public service committee of the chamber in opposition to House Bill No. 75, whose purpose is to repeal the public utilities commission act. The resolution Is as follows: Whereas, there has been introduced in the General Assembly a bill for the purpose of repealing the public utility commission act and restoring the railroad commission, and Whereas, this bill is aiming to restore the complete control and regulation of public utilities to city councils and boards of trustees of towns, and Whereas, these local bodies are not in a position to do this work carefully and intelligently, and Whereas, the public service commission over a period of almost eight years has demonstrated its ability to regulate the utilities companies, keeping in mind the interest and needs of the public, as well as the interest and needs of the utilities, and Whereas, the passage of this proposed bill would impair the credit of the utilities which are so essential to the maintenance an doperation of industry, would disorganize and return to the former unsatisfactory basis the whole, utility business of the State and wojold undoubtedly drive many of them Into bankruptcy, and Whereas, in the present stste of financial and Industrial conditions It would be very unwise to attempt to tamper in any wny with the present method of regulation which has proven itself •ffectiv" over a period of almost eight years, and the commission is now in a position ns a result of this experience to render to the people of the State even more efficient service. Therefore, be it resolved, that the board of directors of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce strongly opposes House Bill No. 75, otherwise known as the Smith bill, and urges its defeat: and, resolved also, that the Chamber of Commerce shall be represented by a committee at. the public hearing to be held by the General Assembly, which committee shall make known the opposition of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce to the Smith hill. The public service committee will represent the chamber, with Dick Miller, in presenting the resolution and arguments in opposition to the bill before the Legislative Committee In charge.

SOUTH SIDE MEN TO FIGHT CHANGE Insist Shelby Street Opening Be Carried Through. A movement to arouse the south side to fight any change in the plan to open Shelby street straight through from Washington to Maryland streets is under way with Thomas Cahalane, Hugh D. O'Connell and J. B. Downey as leaders, it was learned today. The board of public works Inst Monday postponed final consideration of the resolution for the opening until next Monday in order that it might investigate a substitute plan of widening Cruse already cut through from Washington to Maryland streets, and Joining it with Shelby street by diagonally opening it from Maryland street to the first alley south of Georgia street. Several hundred south side property owners gathered in O'Connell's hall Tuesday afternoon and demanded that the board of works adhere to its original plan. The entire eastern section of the south side has been interested for several years in getting a through routj to Washington street over Shelby street. They have insisted all along that the route was needed for fire protection purposes as well as for another through traffic thoroughfare. Some citizens at the meeting said that anything but a straight opening of Shelby street would be a subterfuge for the purpose of postponing forever the proposed opening. There is no through north and south street open through the railroad tracks bet-.vw-n Noble and East streets. Several manufacturers and other business men with plants in the patli or adjacent to the proposed Shelby street opening have objected to it, asserting they pro ‘ab'.y would have to seek other locations if it went through, the Pennsylvania railroad tracks being elevated at the same time, as the board of works contemplates. The firms now have sidetracks from the railroad into their plants. When the tracks are elevated it will be necessary to bring these sidings into the plants on grades. Several of these grades would have to cross Shelby street In order to get down to the first floor levels of the factories. If Shelby street were opened these grades could not be put in because they would block tho street. The only alternative left tbe manufacturers, they state, would be to run side tracks in on the second-floor level. They any their bittinesses aro of such a nature that this could not be done with any degree of practicability, and therefore they would have to move or go out of business. The south side residents say that the manufacturers are making their case stronger than the facts warrant and assert further that even if the proposed opening would compel them to move or go out of business the public need for the street would justify the sacrifice. Another mass meeting of the south side residents will be held at Fountain Square Hall at 2:30 o’clock Sunday afternoon. A large delegation is expected to attend the board meeting next Monday to press their demand.

CITY BUYS HOSE AT LOWER RATE Fire Equipment Saving Placed at $2,000. Authority to negotiate contracts for the purchase of 10,000 feet of 2Mi-inch fire hose was given to Dwight S. Ritter, city purchasing agent, by the board of public safety today. The contracts will be sent to the city council for ratification at Its next meeting, Feb. 7. Mr. Ritter announced that he will make a contract with the Hamilton Rubber Manufacturing Company, Chicago, for 6,000 feet of the hose at 90 cent3 per foot, total, $5 400; another with the Rubber Corporation of America, Trenton, N. J., for 2,000 feet at $1 per foot, total, $2,000, and another with the Centra! Rubber and Supply Company, Indianapolis, for 2,000 feet at $1.20 per foot, total, $2,400. The total amount of the contract will l>* $9,860. The different brands of hose at different prices are being purchased for the reason that the board desires to ascertain for the future needs of the fire department which kind is best, Mr. Ritter said. The department now has -no accurate record on the life of various kinds of hose because the record system was not installed until 1918. Os the 10,000 feet, 3,400 feet will be used to replace hose which wore out last year. The remainder will be added to the equipment of various companies which do not have the amount specified by the fire uudqfwriters. All of tb* hose to be bought is guaranteed for five years and is to be delivered by March 1 or sooner, Mr. Ritter said. Fire hose companies formerly made only three-year guarantees, he said. The board of safety received proposals from fire hose manufacturers in September, which ranged from $1.07 .to $1.50 per foot, and by waiting until now approximately $2,000 bas been saved because of the lower prices, the purchasing agent stated. The board recently bought 1,000 feet of 1-inch hose, which Is used to “clean up" fires after the heavier pressure has practically extinguished them, fro.a the Hide Leather and Bolting Companj, Indianapolis, for cents per toot. Later the board may buy 2,000 feet of 3_lnch hose, for use on high pressure Hues in case of big fires, in accordance with the recommendations of the underwriters. This can be bought for SI.BO per foot, Mr. Bitter sadl. Fifty applicants for appointment to the fire force were Interviewed by the board. Appointments will not be announced until the rtgulur meeting Tuesday.

Costumes are being rushed here from Chicago to replace those damaged or destroyed in a fire in a dressing room at the Murat Theater last night, following a performance of “Chu Chin Chow.” A lighted cigarette In a dressing room used by a number of the girls is said to have been the cause of tbe fire.
