SEEK MM RULING Merger of Hogue-Holmes Cases Asked. Thomas C. Whallon, attorney for Ira M. Holmes, contestant in the mayorality suits in Supreme Court, has signified his intention of filing a petition Thursday with the Supreme Court, asking that the Holmes case and the Joseph L. Hogue mayorality suit against Mayor L. Ert Slack be consolidated and brought to early hearing. Saying that financial houses are reluctant and often refuse to handle Indianapolis municipal securities because of the alleged mayorality tangle, Whallon will petition the court to consolidate the cases and return an early decision. Holmes lost his appeal in the Appellate Court which declared that his claim to the office was a moot question.

Duvall was not elected properly, have briefed their case fully and are awaiting the court action. CUT TAX VALUATION OF MADISON POWER FIRM Four Other Utilities to Appeal to State Tax Board.
