AMENDMENTS LOOM FOR DRY MEASURE House Not Expected to Object Much to Stringent Liquor Law Codification, but Senate Leaders See Several Flaws,

The "bone dry" bill introduced in the House by State Representative Frank Wright, Lynn, and recommended for passage by the House Public Morals Committee, will likely pass the House, but will meet its Waterloo in' its present form in the Senate, according to expressions of several members of the General Assembly today. Amendments to modify the measure are being prepared. The bill, known as House bill 24, one of the most drastic dry laws possible to draft, is backed by the Indiana Anti-Saloon League and contains a codification of State liquor laws. Various State laws which have been held invalid because of technicalities are corrected and made to conform with Federal dry laws. James J. Nejdl, Republican Senate floor leader, declared 7he measure would not pass the upper House in its present drastic form. Nejdl expressed opposition to wording of the bill, which makes "possession" of intoxicating liquor a violation. ■ Would single Out Vendors "If the law was drafted so as to makk possession of liquor by bootleggers or persons known to be bootleggers or vendors of liquor, there would be little opposition to that clause,” Nejdl said. He declared the provision which made “odor of Intoxicating liquor upon or about the operator of such motor vehicle or motorcycle, shall be prima facie evidence Jhat he is under the influence of intoxicating liquor” as too drastic, and pointed out many instances in which smell of liquor would in no way point to the person as being intoxicated. Senator Rowland Hill, Carthage, while in favor of prohibition, said: "I am afraid of all this radicalTubby Sees It He Has a Few Things to Take Up With the Scientists —Wants His Money Returned; By TUBBY TOMS * <♦!■■■ E that dwelleth in the H secret place of the most _ high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”—Psalms #1:1. This Is the first and only reasonable explanation for today’s phenomenon, the eclipse. The scientists 'were right in a few particulars, but wrong in many. For Instance. the path of totality was not in 'Wisconsin, Michigan, etc. It followed Indiana Ave. The chicken# did not go to roost. They got up at the usual hour, sought oht the smoked glass they used at the last eclipse, and sallied forth to work.

There was no wild rush to the 10-cent stores for colored glasses. Many of them Just opened chifforobe, picked out an empty gin bottle and smoked it, together with a cigaret. Contrary to expectations the street lights did not flash forth at 8 a. m. as Mayor Shank promised. The city saved $3.21 thereby. ->• “Operating Expenses” The Citizen’s Gas Company office • force temporarily abandoned making out monthly bills and gazed and gazed and gazed, charging the time to operating expenses, according to the public service commission. We grinned at them, but they saw us not. What's a man when the sun hides his face in shame at earthly sins? The county Courthouse was a scene of unusual activity and its habitues, employed and otherwise, gave undivided attention to the feature of the skies. It was one of the fqw places, including the Statehouse and the city hall, where sufficient time was available. Sun on Souse There is one more matter we wish to take up with the scientists as soon as we are able to see the keys. No one Interviewed the sun and no one knows how he feels, about it. Personally, we are of the belief he was on a souse last night, although we failed to perceive the three stars the scientists said would be visible. In the beginning the sun seemed to be sort of upset. He came through it fine, though. Although we are fairly well satisfied with the exhibition, considering Everything, we demand our money back. The shadow did not travel with its promised speed, for one thing. \ We timed it between here and Greenfield and noted a tendency to loaf. London astronomers said it should cover the distance between Emerson Ave. and State’ N fit. in Greenfield in .00000025 seconds. It actually required 000000281 seconds. Ws were leading by a beam at Green&ekL This is a serious discrepancy, and we hope it will be corrected before the next eclipse. Otherwise, everything was satisfactory.

ism. The State of Indiana is supposed to be dry and yet this continued agitation, I believe, is turn irtg the people against prohibition I wouldn’t want to see the old sa loons back, but I’ll declare, it’s not fair to the boys to continually be agiated with some such measure as Schumacker proposes. "I know what I’ll do, if this thing is too drastic. I’ll just explain my vote on the* question and vote against it. I believe a lot of the boys feel the same way.” Fears Effort of Agitation Senator Murray S. Barker, Thorntown, Republican caucus chairman, declared he was afraid the radicalism of the bill would defeat aims of the sponsors. Representative John W. Thiel. Lake County, is said to be preparing an amendment which would give householders permission to make wine for their own use. Another amendment would increase penalty for drunkenness to a fine of not less than S6O or more than S6OO and a sentence of six months on the Indiana State farm. A third amendment would strike out all reference to county jails, substituting the Indiana State farm. Thiel has a change which would eliminate the smell of liquor as prima fade evidence of intoxication. Thiel declared that in Lake County policemen several times have mistaken odor of garlic for liquor. Thiel in expressing his' opposition to the measure, said he might present an amendment striking out the emergency clause an<f another to eliminate the enacting clause, which would kill the bill. Patent Medicine^ According to Interpretations of the measure the bill would include patent medicines and flavoring extracts in its ban on "every other drink, mixture or preparation of like alcoholic content (one-half of one per cent or more) whether patented or not, used, or reasonably likely or intended to be used, as a beverage: and all other intoxicating beverages, drinks or preparations 'whether alcoholic or not, used, or intended for beverage purposes.” The bill sets out that "it shall be unlawful for any person to purchase, receive, manufacture, transport, ship, possess, sell, barter, exchange, give away, furnish, or otherwise handle, or dispose of any Intoxicating liquor.” Penalty on conviction is SIOO fine and not more than SSOO and imprisonment of not less than thirty and more than six months in county jail for first offense. This section would ban all private dub "parties” or serving of drinks in private homes.

Prescription Sale Provided Provision Is made for eale of grain alcohol by druggists on prescription of physicians or to registered dentists. ' bill makes It unlawful to “own or tqi, have in his possessio, or under his control or to use or to assist in. using any still or distilling apparatus for unlawful manufacture of intoxicating liquor.” Violation is termed a felony and penalty is imprisonment from one to five years and fine of SIOO to SI,OOO. Transporting is made a felony with a penalty of Imprisonment of one to two years with fine of not over SI,OOO. Intoxication in a public place is made a misdemeanor and penalty Is $lO to SIOO fine. Imprisonment in jail of not more than six months may be added. Operation of motor vehicle while intoxicated is made a misdemeanor and fine of not more than SSOO, with imprisonment of not less than thirty or more than six months at Indiana State Farm is provided. Driving Would Be Banned It is made mandatory for the court to prohibit such convicted person from driving any automobile or motorcycle for any period not exceeding one year. A section which would strike at exclusive clubs makes it “unlawful for any person to directly or Indirectly keep or maintain by himself or by associating with others, or to in any manner aid, assist or abet in keeping or maintaining a clubhouse or other place where intoxicating liquor is received or kept for use, gift, barter or sale, or for the purpose of distribution or division among the members of any each club or association.” The bill provides that any such clubhouse be declared a common nuisance and penalty Is fixed at not SSOO and Imprisonment in county Jail for not lees than thirty days or more than six months. Conflscation-of automobile or other transporting craft is provided. HUGHES GETS REQUEST Indiana Seeks Official Copy of Child Labor Amendment. Secretary of State Frederick E. Schortemeler of Indiana today telegraphed Secretary of State Charles E. Hughes for a copy of the proposed child labor amendment to the Federal Constitution.

DENIES HARRISON CITYWTSIDER’ Tax Expert Real Citizen, Reynolds Tells Shank. In a letter today to Mayor-Shajak, a statement by the mayor that Leonard V. Harrison, tax expert of the body, Is not a citizen of Indianapolis, is refuted by John B. Reynolds, secretary of the Chamber. Mayor Shank recently took exception to statements by Harrison that pay of firemen and police could not be raised legally this year, the budget having been fixed. He was quoted as saying Harrison was an “outsider, and does not even belong to Indianapolis.” "I desire to call your attention to the fact that he has lived In this city one and one-half years, brought his personal property from his former home, established a legal voting residence here, in addition to all which he has, since living here become the proud father ot a native Hcosler son/’ wrote Reynolds.” In all fairness, don’t you think, ( Mr. Shank, that Harrison is a citizen of, Indianapolis, and as such, entitled to be heard without having the aspersion cast he is a rank outsider?” Youth Gets ‘s2s And—* * Bernard Nichols, 19, of 128 W.

TESTS SHOW SUN. HAMPERS RADIO IN BROADCASTING Experiments Are Made During Eclipse—Prove Successful. By United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 24. —Conclusive proof has been obtained that the sun’s rays are responsible for the reduced power of broadcasting during the day time, Harold Gray of the research department of the Zenith Radio Corporation told the United Press today. Gray announced that tests to de termine w'hethei* the shadow of the moon created conditions similar to night were successful. Standing at his receiving station here. Gray heard the announcer broadcasting from WJAZ, Iron Mountain, Mich., on a wave length of 268 meters, from 4 a. m., until after the solar eclipse. A No Doubt "There is no doubt in my mind that our tests succeeded~in shopping that ionization of the air in the daytime due to the sun’# rays oauses absorption of tEe electrio magnetic wave,” Gray said. "I heard our station throughout the test period. I established a carrier wave this morning during the eclipse for the first time since we started the tests. “All this shows that the shadow of the mocm created night conditions. There were times when reception was very light, but we must recall that we passed from totality In northern Michigan over a belt of comparative light. Fades Gut “At 7:68 a. m. the time of highest obscurity here, the announcer’s voice faded out, but the same thing often occurs at night. A moment later I heard the announcer again. “Now we have something definite to work on. Before, all we knew was that the power was about onetenth during the day of what it is at night.” Tests of "the same nature was made at Northwestern University here and proved unsuccessful, it was announced. At no time was the station able to hear WJAZ. Eastern stations in the shadow belt were not heard, although Cincinnati and Louisville, below the belt, were picked up.
