PASS PRIMARY BILL; CUT OFF AMENDMENTS Modification Draft Sent Back to Senate by House Vote. Shorn of amendments the senate had added, the Republican platform primary modification bill went back to the senate today for concurrence, bearing the 56 to 37 approval of the Indiana house of representatives. Leaders of the party exerted their pressure on senators that they concur in the house action in striking out the amendments which provided that all voting in state convention be by Xustralian ballot and that there be no proxies. Concurrence is expected and the measure will go to Governor Harry G. Leslie, who is expected to sign, because of his stand for primary modification in his message to the general assembly. This bill places the nomination for President, sena-' tor and Governor in convention and not by primary. Lake County in Action VHien the bill reached the reading clerk. Representative Robert B. Stewart of Clay, declared that there had been enough debate on this bill and moved the “previous question’’ which automatically closes debate. Representative John W. Scott of Gary, immediately moved to table the Stewart motion. Speaker James Knapp reminded Scott that such a motion couldn’t be tabled. “The people are interested in this bill and we are not going to permit this bill to be rammed down our throats. We debate for hours about a 50-cent increase for some township trustee or dog taxes, but when a question of vital importance arises they try to throttle all debate,” Scott said. "People Must He Heard” "This is a quest io-. of importance and the people must be heard,” declared J. Glenn Harris of Gary; and then he pulled the cat put of the bag by reminding the chair that Representative John Thiel of Hobart had at the start of the morning session filed a motion to reconsider the passage of the bill to engrossment and under the rules of the house such a motion could only be called down by the author for twenty-four hours and that time had not elapsed and the bill could not be considered now. Thiel refused to call the motion

down and the Speaker ruled tha Thiel had right to call this motio: down, but that if he did not do sthe chair could hand the bill down Lloyd Claycombe, of Indian&poli. protested that the rule could no be construed to delay the progress of tne bill. “This rule was made in case i someone tried to ram a measurt down the throats of the people,’ Harris answered, and Thiel declared if the bill was called down he would, file a written protest in the house journal. A recess was called during which members of the house sang while the Lake county delegation won its way. In a few minutes the conference reported with a motion permitting the “no proxy” provision to be stricken out and the bill went to final vote. Fifty-six Republicans voted for the measure; 22 Republicans and 15 Democrats,, voted against the modification bill. Representative Frank Wright when the vote came to him introduced seventy-five members of the W. C. T. U. and then read a resolution condemning the modifiication, urging # retention of the primary “which ‘made possible the election of President Herbert Hoover” and Wright then voted against the bill.
