PARTY LEADERS SUBMIT LINE-UP IN BffTHHfIUSES Close Race Seen for Sen- ' ators James J. Nejdl and T,*At Daily. The House Harry Q. Leslie, Lafayette, farmer, speaker. Lemuel ATFittinger, Selma, farm-er-teacher, floor leader. John 'C. Sherwood, Mitchell, farmer, caucus chairman. Thurman A. Gotts chalk, Berne, manufacturer, minority floor leader. W. T. Lytle, principal clerk. The Senate F. Harold Van Qrman, Lieutenant Governor, president. James J. Nejdl, Whiting, contractor, president pro tem. Thomas Dally, attorney, IndianapoUs, caucus chairman. Joseph M. Cravens, Madison, farmer, minority floor leader. Zell C. Swain, Middletown, secretary. Above Is the likely line-up of ofcers of the Indiana General Assembly, which convenes next Thursday, according to administration leaders. In the Senate the race between Senator James J. ‘Nejdl, Whiting, and Senator Thomas A. Daily, Indianapolis, will be close, but admini?'.. ration leaders claim the election o’ Nejdl by at least six votes. Dally adherents, however, claim their man will defeat the Lake county leader by a safe number of votes. It is known that Nejdl is the choice of Lieutenant Governor-Elect F. 'Harold Van Orman. In the House it is conceded Harry G. Leslie, Lafayette, will be named speaker over Charles M. Clark, Indianapolis, representative from Marion and Johnson Counties. Administration leaders declare Clark will not get the Marlon County vote, although Clark claims to have enough to "put him over.” George W. Freeman, abstractor, Kokomo, is a candidate for caucus chairman, and it is possible that Freeman may be named instead of John C. Sherwood of Mitchell. Ku-Klux Klan members of the Legislature have been called in caucus Jan. 6 at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. General caucus of both Republicans and Democrats has been called for the night of Jan. 7 for organization.

County Council today authorized a bond issue of $600,000 to pay the county’s share for the construction of new bridges over White River at Kentucky and Oliver Aves. and to purchase land as is necessary for approaches. Council was expected to authorize a bond Issue of $720,000 after it was originally reduced from SBOO,OOO to build the bridges and help pay expense of flood prevention work along White River, They refused to approve a higher figure saying that the city is spending money foolishly In buying land along White River for flood prevention.
