HOUSE SHELVES UTILITY HOLDING COMPANYDRAFT Control Bill Passed by Senate Voted to Defeat. With few scattered noes the Moorhead utility holding bill, which passed the senate with but seven votes in opposition, went to indefinite postponement Thursday afternoon in the Indiana house of representatives. The motion to indefinitely postpone came on second reading and was made by Representative A. Everett Bloom of Ft. Wayne. Representative Delph McKesson, who had waged almost single handed a battle to obtain passage of the bill moved to table the postponement and a roll showed 57 for postponement with 33 opposed. The postponement was carried by a viva voce vote. Tenure Bill Killed The bill provided that when a holding company owned more than 50 per cent of the commoli stock of a utility operating in Indiana it became a utility itself and was under the control oi the public service commission. With the teacher tenure repeal bill failing to obtain a constitutional majority for the second time, the bill was killed by the tabling of a reconsideration motion. The bill was called down for a second final vote by its author, Representative Harlan R. Denton of Farmer, and the vote stood 39 ayes apd 46 noes without obtaining a constitutional majority of SJ. for either side. The same had happened last week. -v. Better fortune attended the absent voters’ bill, which failed of a constitutional majority on third reading Wednesday, but when called down again Thursday passed the house 68 to 26. This bill permits voting by persons who are absent from their polling places on election day. License Bill Passed The house passed the senate bill requiring all motor vehicle drivers to obtain permits by a vote of 54 to 35. is mandatory under provisions of this bill to revoke.permit for one year of persons convicted of manslaughter resulting from operation of a motor vehicle, or driving under the influence of liquor or a narcotic, The permits will cost 25 cents and will bear the signature and photograph of the driver. If signed by the Governor it will go into effect July 1. The house passed the Kottkamp bill which permits 75 per cent of the affected property owners to remonstrate against orders to vacate streets’ by a vot* <6 75 to 0. A petition drafted at ft meeting of four south side civic clubs and signed by 150 names was received by Speaker Knapp Thursday. More than 2,500,000 families in England have taken out radio licenses.

the dog-s in hamburgers or split frankfurters, has been used by the Ravenswood poisoner. The same poison was used by someone who has killed half a dozen dogs in Irvington in recent weeks. Sheriff Winkler, however, doubted that the poisoning in both districts was done by the same man. The dogs killed in Ravenswood all were valuable pets and watchdogs. Bulldogs, airdales and collies have been victims. Residents of the suburb, which is located north of the city on White river, advanced the theory that someone desiring to rob a number of their homes is responsible.
