Prepayment of Barrett law assessments at any interest-bearing time without payment of the interest for the entire period of the Barrett fund bonds is planned in a bill being prepared by Representative John L. Benedict of Indianapolis. A law requiring that prepayments include the interest on the bonds until maturity was passed by the 1927 legislature. Prior to this bill the prepayment could be made after giving six months’ notice and thfi payment of interest up to the time of prepayment. Much opposition to the 1927 law has been voiced by persons making prepayments who feel that they should not be required to pay the entire interest charges.

Architect’s conception of the Gresham shrine.
Evansville Memorial Will Honor First American Killed in War. Further work on the James Bethel Gresham shrine at Evansvijle is awaiting passage of the $75,000 appropriation bill now before the state legislature, according to Arthur G. Gresham of Indianapolis, one of the three members of a commission to be appointed by the legislature. The other two members are Frank T. Strayer, former national commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, and Otto Holtman, commander of the Funkhauser post, American Legion, at Evansville. Design for the shrine was complied by W. A. Murray of Barre, Yt., an architect. The main shrine will be in Locust Hill cemetery. It is sixty feet in diameter and twentyfive feet high. School Children Aid The cemetery association contributed a $5,000 plot of ground, a collection was taken from school children of the state Tuesday, more than $5,000 has been raised by subscription, and this, with the state appropriation, will meet expense of construction, Gresham says. About five years ago Arthur G. Gresham inaugurated a move to build a shrine giving James Bethel Gresham, the first American to die in the World war, national recognition. The campaign was carried on principally by the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Recently the American Legion started another memorial move, and the situation further was complicated with the formation of an Evansville civic memorial committee. Three Formations Combine The three forces combined, however, and all are agreed on the present plan. The inscription of the shaft reads: “Dedicated to the memory of James Bethel Gresham. He gave his all that freedom as we know it should not fall. Content was he when called upon to yield his life on Flanders scarlet poppy field. Full sacrifice he made for liberty, through death, achieving immortality.” PROPOSE TEN-YEAR LIMITATION STATUTE Change of the present statute of limitations period from two years to ten years will be proposed in a bill to be introduced by Representative George W. Freeman, Kokomo. The present statute provides that two years after the violation has been committed a public official can not be prosecuted for malfeasance and other crimes in office. This law was successfully invoked by ex-Governor Ed Jackson in his trial on a charge of attempting to bribe Warren T. McCray.
