MAKION county SURVEYOR BILL PASSES HOUSE Salary of Official Placed at $4,500, Fees Go to Treasury. SALVAGE ACT FAVORED Two bills affecting Marlon County alone, one introduced by Representative John L. Benedict, and the other by RepresentaHve Frank J. Noll, Jr., were passed and another, Introduced by Representative Benedict, was defeated In the Tuesday afternoon session of the House. One of the bills passed was for increasing the salary of the Marion County surveyor, and the other was for exemption of the Indianapolis salvage corps from taxation. The bill, which was defeated was that which provided methods for attacking the truthfulness of a sheriff's return on papers served by him. The passage of the bill increasing the salary of the Marlon County surveyor to $4,500 a year marked the second salary Increase for local officials passed during the day, a bill Increasing the coroner's salary haring passed during the morning session. These offices were not Included In the Benedict bill abolishing the fee system in Marion County, widen passed during the morning session Tuesday, because they were not constitutional offices. STRAIGHT SALARY FOR SURVEYOR. Under the surveyor bill, the official is given a salary of $4,500 and all fees collected by him shall be turned Into the county treasury. He shall receive no additional compensation by per diem or otherwise as county engineer, the bill provides. The bill fixes salaries of deputy surveyors and qualified assistants at not to exceed S2OO per month for the first deputy, not to exceed $l5O for each other deputy or assistant. Rodmen. chainmen and other necessary assistants shall receive not to exceed $4 per diem for their services, according to the bill. The bill would also give the surveyor the power to appoint as many deputies, qualified assistants, rodmen, chainmen and other assistants as the volume of the work may require, subject to the approval of the board of county commissioners. The Benedict bill exempting the salvage corps from taxation was merely to correct an error which was ma le in the 1619 session when the tax law was passed, according to the author. The bill passed by a vote of fed to 0. insurance and BANKING HEARING. Representative Chester A. Paris of ,Tny County, chairman of Judiciary A Committee. announced that a public hearing will be held tomorrow night in the Supreme Courtroom, on the Smith-Newman-Barker-Bedgood bill to abolish the State department of banking and insurance.

BANK BILL GOES TO CONFERENCE Senate Rejects Amendment for Insurance Business. The bill permitting trust companies to do a general banking business today is In the hands of a conference committee of the House and the Senate, following Its passage by the Senate without the House amendment providing that trust companies may engage In the life Insurance business. The bill, which had gone to third reading, was called back to second reading on a motion to reconsider by Senator Harold Van Orman of Evansville, who moved to amend the bill by striking out the part In reference to trust companies doing a life Insurance business. This amendment brought forth a stormy debate. Friends of the Van Orman amendment insisted that passage of the bill in the form In which it left the House would put thousands of insurance agents out of business and that it would p'ace trust companies in a position to demand of persons making loans that they do their insurance business with them. The amendment was passed 26 to IS. Immediately after passage of the amendment Senator C. Oliver Holmes of Gary moved that the rules be suspended and the bill placed on its passage. Without further discussion the bill was passed, 40 to 1. The dissenting vote was cast by Senator Howard Cana of Frankfort. The bill providing that the State food and drug department shall pass on all medicines advertised as cures for tuberculosis failed to pass for lack of a conatitutlonkl majority. 25 to 21. The Senato passed the bill by Senator English piovlding for establishment of a domestic science and art school for negro girls and women. The bill carries an appropriation of $25,000, to be made available by the State when friends of the project raise $50,000. The Senate also passed a bill legalizing certain bond Issues by Railroad Township, Starke County.

EDITORS ASKED TO TURKEY RUN Democratic Scribes Get Invitation for Summer Meeting. Richard Lieber, director of conservation In Indiana, today extended an Invitation to members of the Indiana Democratic Editorial Association to hold their summer meeting at Turkey Run State Park. Mr. Lieber pointed out that this park is very accessible, possesses modern conveniences in a wilderness, and as a convention place has few equals in the State. H;s invitation to the editors, sent through W. L. Sliukard of Bloomfield, president of the association, in part read as follows: “Permit me to extend an invitation to members of your association through you, as president, that they hold their summer meeting at Turkey Run State Park. Turkey Run is one of the most beautiful spots in the whole of lioosierlnnd, and I assure you a decision of the editors to gather there this summer will be a great pleasure to members of the conservation commission and myself. "If not already familiar with the topography and native wooded growth, much of which is centuries old, that makes the place ideal for recreational purposes, a visit will convince the editors, 1 am confident, of the necessity of more intensive saving of our primitive beauty spots for State parks, in order that Hoosiers to come may find in them relief, quiet rest far from the congvsted centers of the industrial cities and their teeming thousands.” Members of the Republican Editorial Association met in mid-summer session at Turkey Run Park last July and motion pictures taken of this outing were later exhibited In a number of cinema houses over Indiana.

The Truth About Indianapolis

BELT RAILROAD ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-FOUR factories are located on sites along the 15-mile Belt Railroad, which connects the seventeen divisions comprising the five railroad systems passing through Indianapolis, About twenty five sites, ranging from one-half acre to ten acres, are yet available along the Belt road. Last year twelve new industries built plants on Belt road sites. The company plans an extension when all the sites are occupied. Twenty-one engines on the Belt Railroad last year handled 240.000 cars of freight, while the engines of the other five railroad systems using Belt tracks distributed and hauled 890,000 cars. Tonnage passing over the Belt tracks in 1920 aggregated 56,500,000 tons. The Belt Railroad was largely responsible for the constant service to Indianapolis industry and commerce when other freight centers in the United States were congested in the past year.
