WOULD NAME BODY TO STUDY TAX PROBLEMS McCray Sets at Rest Fears of Extra Session of Legislature. CONFERENCE IS HELD Reports to the effect that a special session o? the Legislature for the purpose of revising the tax law would bo called immediately should the constitutional amendments concerning taxation be adopted at the special election Sept. 6, have been stopped by the announcement of Governor Warren T. McCray that, should the amendments be adopted, be would appoint a commission for the purpose of making an extended study of taxation and which would report to the Legislature This announcement was made at the close of the conference on taxation at the Claypool Hotel yesterday afternoon. Arrangements are expected to be made Immediately as a result of the State conference for the holding of oflatforences to discuss the amendments in districts and counties throughout the State. Governor McCray, in closing the State conference, urged such meetings. One of the features of the close of the conference was a talk by James P. Goodrich, former Governor of Indiana. Mr. Goodrich declared that it would be safe to trust the Legislature in matters of taxation, as “this is the most conservative State in the Union and the Legislature will be conservative." He harked back to his unsuccessful effort to bring about the enactment of an excise tax law In 1817 ad declared such a law can now be enacted and will be enacted if real estate continues to bear the major part of the burden. Other speakers who were not on the formal program were the members of the tax board; Fred A. Sims, former president of the tax board; Senator Winfield Miller of Indianapolis, William Bosson, a Marion County farmer, and others. Nearly every speaker urged economy as the best solution of the tax problem. HINT HARDING MAY ‘END WAR’ Proclamation Would Stop Controversy. WASHINGTON, Juno B—The snggestion that President Harding may end the controversy between the House and Senate over the form of the resolution restoring peace with Germany by issuing an executive proclamation declaring the war ended is being entertained by some legislative “best minds” who do not relish the prospective bickerings over the matter in Congress. If Harding without waiting for Congress to so.tie the squabble as to whether the Knox resolution of the Senate or the Porter resolution of the House is better would take matters into his o.vri hands, he would be acting entirely within his constitutional powers, it is contended. Congress could legislatively back him up later, it is pointed out, by adopting a resolution embodying the language of his proclamation. Every day that passes without action on the peace resolution bears in upon Republican leaders the fart that delay is becoming more and more a matter of comment and criticism throughout the country. DENTAL CLINIC URGED. Iv "VIMON'D, Ind. June 8.-Establish mi ut of a free dentaT clinic In Richmond, especially for the benefit of the school children, was urged by Dr. F. R.

South Bend Council Votes for Natatorium Special to The Times.
