SAYS REFORM IN TAX SYSTEM OF INDIANA IS DUE State Out of Step With General Trend, Edie Tells Manufacturers. That Indiana is out of step with of tax reforms in other States was charged by Prof. Lionel D. Edie, director of the bureau ot business research of the Indiana Uni versity School of Commerce and Finance, at the annual banquet of the Indiana Manufacturers’ Association Friday night at the Severln. “The income tax amendment, recently voted down, is one of, the symptoms of far-reaching dissatisfaction with the present tax system,” Professor Edie declared. “The Income tax will be a reality unless some adequate substitution is worked out.” Proponents of the State income tax assert farmers and others owning large amounts of land are bearing too large a share of governmental expense. Not Through With It “The Income mania has grown until In recent years one State a year has adopted it. Although it has been voted down, we are not through with It. It will come up in other forms,”. Edie said. The speaker predicted that unless friendly relations between agriculture and industry be established, a “dog eat dog” policy would ensue. Where industry prevails, there is a tendency to let down on property taxes and substitute license laws, business and income taxes and similar methods of raising funds, he pointed out. Other speakers were J. A. Shields, Lawrenceburg, retiring president; Norman A. Imrie, Culver Military Academy, and City Attorney John K. Ruckleshaus. Condemns Ford Plan Shields advocated a laisse-faire policy for Industry and declared he had no faith in so-called “constructive legislative programs.” He condemned the Ford five-day week. Imrie discussed various viewpoints on the war debts and Ruckelshaus welcomed the manufacturers on behalf of the mayor. L. H. Link, Ft. Wayne, worn elected president at the business session during the afternoon. Other officers chosen u r ere C. O. Grafton, Muncie, first vice president; H. C. Stockel, Terre Haute, second vice president and Irving W. Lemaux, Indianapolis, treasurer. Directors are R. M. Richter, Bedford; A. R. Baxter, Indianapolis; John Shields, Seymour; C. T. Hertzch, Jeffersonville; H. C. Hunt, Richmond; C. W. Howlett, Kokomo, and H. P. Conkey, Hammond. CITY SUED FOR $3,000 Suit for $3,000 was filed in Circuit Court against the city, Friday afternoon by Ira Holmes and Frank P. Baker, attorneys, for services as election commissioners during the city, election in Nov., 1925. Each asked $1,500 for their services. Holmes represented Republicans and Baker the Democrats. It is pointed out in the complaint that the city council passed the appropriation, that Lew Shank, then mayor, vetoed it but that It was later passed over his veto. It is averred that several demands for the money have been made.

ATTRACTIVE WOMEN If You Would Be Attractive You Must Be Healthy A beautiful woman is always admlred. There are many types of

beauty. But no woman can be truly beautiful unless she is healthy. Radiant vitality is always attractive however plain a woman’s features may be. Many a woman has found her health improved through the use

of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Weakness, loss of weight, and a pale complexion, were a few things of which Mrs. J. C. Taylor of Box 211, Tallahassee, Florida, complained before she started taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. “I could not even sit down and talk, to a friend for any length of time,” she states. “I would forget what I was talking about and felt so blue.” Mrs. Taylor Is so pleased with the work of the Vegetable Compound that she keeps a bottle of it in the house at all times —and when it is empty, her husband makes sure that she has a new bottle. “I have regained my strength,” MYs. Taylor writes. “I can do all my housework now and I feel just fine.” —Advertisement.

She felt that she would never do anything but cry again. She could see no solution to any of the problems confronting her. It seemed equally Impossible to go home or back to the empty apartment. In any case, she could not afford to keep it after the first of the month. The door was pushed softly open by the probationer who had brought Henderson’s flowers the night before. "Would you like to see Mr. Crane?” His anxious face loomed over the nurse's shoulder. Sonia cried, “Oh, Franklin!” He was kneeling beside the bed, kissing her hands. The little nurse left the room. “Darling, what can I ever do? What can I say?” "It’s all right,” she said, instantly brave again. “We were both to blame.” / Her hand caressed his bowed head. “Was it in the papers?” “Only a brief account. I kept it from mother." "You did?” “Yes, although I had to tell her the car had been wrecked.” “Where does she think you “With some fellows, who were going up to the shack. A rotten business, Sonia.” After a little she forced herself to ask about Maxine. They were sending her body to her father in Seattle. After Don’s rugged steadfastness there seemed an instability about Franklin. Sonia resented the comparison even while she was making it. His nervous system was no doubt shaken as much as her own. Yet the idea persisted. His charming face looked weak. She had not noticed before the petulant, fretful droop of his lips. She hated herself for noticing it now. "Franklin,” she asked suddenly, “how much chance is there of our getting married?” His blue eyes became cold. “Haven’t I enough to worry me without bringing in that?” “Is the idea so distateful to you?” “It’s impossible,” he said, flatly. “I’m going to have all I can do to

weather the effects of this accident.” "It’s always been Impossible hasn’t It? You never have had any definite idea of marriage in your mind?” He faced her resentfully. “I’ve been frank with you from the start. As long as conditions are as they are . . . Oh, Sonia, don’t torment me. I’m just about crazy.” “I see. It torments y # ou to discuss our marriage.” “It does because there’s nothing .1 can do about it. I’d marry you in a minute if I could.” “That’s good of you.” Her voice was brittle. He rose and began to pace the room. “You don’t seem to realize that the delay hurts me as much as it does you.” Sonia remained silent. “I want you, Sonia, more than I ever wanted anything.” “But so far as doing anything about it is concerned, I can w-ither up and die!” she said bitterly. “Why should you? I spend every minute with you I can. Good Lord, you’re only 18.” “Just the same, I’m passing up the best opportunities I’ll ever have for respectable marriage.” “Respectable?” His laugh jangled in the quiet room. “Anew word for Sonia!” “I’ve begun to like it,” she retorted. "Lying here, thinking things over, makes it seem rather a desirable condition.” “That’s because you’ve had a shock.” "I’m not so sure,” She added, positively. “At any rate, I never want to be in a situation like this again. “I hope you aren’t. Although as a matter of fact, the accident might have happened on our way to church to be married." "In that case it would have been much easier to explain.” “Are you blaming me for it' Trying to pass the buck? Becaus if that’s your idea, I can stand it. told you it was my fault.” At the implication of his word: color flashed to her eyes. "You make me utterly ashamet I’m blaming no one.” Then he ran back to kiss ho wildly and cry. “We musn’t quarro like this. It’s because we’re hot' half mad from all that has hap pened.” She agreed, adding sadly, “I cer talnly woild never hnve though anything would make raa <trgei g man to marry me.’* __ “You diun I, uear. I understanu exactly how sick and frightened yot are.” His eyes fell upon the crimsor roses. “I suppose Henderson’s been aftc you again?’’ \ She shook her head but sobs we: breaking in her throat. Franklin touched the card whirl lay upon the table. "So he would like to help, woul. he? Well, he’d better leave yot i alone, Sonia.” “Why should he? You don’t lov me.” In the midst of his protestations the nurse entered. "I'll see you tomorrow,” he stammered. and went away. Sonia permitted l}im to go without telling him that she was leaving the next day. Some instinct for secrecy seemed to warn her for the first time in her relations with him? Let him come and find her gone. She did not know herself where she would be. But Don would take care of her. Don, who never in his life could have addressed any woman as Franklin had spoken to her. She told herself that she had been a weak fool even to mention the subject of marriage. She was not eVen sure that she wanted to marry him. He would not make a good husband. Good husband, respectable marralge! He had laughed at her choice of words, but at least a girl was sheltered in marriage. Married women were not subject to temptations that were so hard to resist. Franklin did not wish to be annoyed by thoughts of the future. But Don stood ready to give her his strong hand for the rest of his life. And she needed strength! Firmness of character and stability! He

was finer, too, than either Crane or W T alter Henderson, although she would never consider Henderson since Maxine had died—Maxine, whom he had taught to love. Franklin had upset Sonia. She was far more miserable than she had been before he came. Every muscle in her body ached. She was tired, disillusioned and humiliated. She had asked for comfort and he had given her only pain. Was it not typical? She told herself that she was reedy now to make one last decision. She forced herself to it. Then, feverishly, she waited Don’s return. (To Be Continued.)
