DEFY LAW TO GET NEW STATE JOBS
Legislators Provide for Berths and Then Take Them for Selves. "No senator or representative shall, during the term for which he may have been elected, be eligible to any office, the election of which is vested in the general assembly; nor shall he be appointed to any (ivil office of profit, which shall have been created; or the emoluments of which shall have been increased. during such term; but this latter provision shall not be construed to apply to any office elective by the people.’’ Thus reads Section 133 of the Indiana Constitution. The drivers’ license law created positions of judgeships for license revocation hearings to be awarded as the secretary of state sees fit. The law was passed by the 1929 legislature and Senator Roscoe Martin, Logansport, and Representative William Bosson Jr., Indianapolis, both of whom worked hard for the passage of the statute, are now judges. They were appointed to the positions, which they created, by Secretary of State Otto G. PYfield. the constitution notwithstanding. Fifield was delayed a bit at first by an oral opinion from Attorney General James M." Ogden, saying that such appointments were illegal because of the constitutional provision cited above. Ogden later, however, rendered what now is known at the statehouse as the "make and take” de- : ion. It permits legislators to make jobs and take them. Under it Ogden ruled that if senators or representatives took the administrative jobs they automatically cease to be senators and representatives. The judgeships pay only $l5O a month, but, Fifield says. “They are fighting for them at that price.” PREDICTS TAX RAISE Increase Certain Unless City Budgets Are Cut. The increase of several cents in ih'’ city 'ax levy is certain unless departmental budget requests are sliced. A. B. Good, deputy city controller. told the mayor’s cabinet Tuesday. Mayor L. Ert Slack urged that the levy be kept low. Several councilmen, however, favored $25,000 for improvements at city prison, not included in the present budget. Councilman John F. White presented the matter before the board of public safety recently urging also that the police gamewell division be moved to the city hall so that Judge Clifton B. Cameron might have more room for his court. The controversy over rubber stop signs was ended when the cabinet asked that the old ordinance calling for rubber signs be recalled and a new ordinance enabling the board of public safety to purchase metal signs to replace them. Speaker Urges Civic Program Need for a comprehensive program for civic improvement was dec’ared by William H. Book, civic affairs director of the Chamber of commerce, addressing the Exchange Club of North Indianapolis at luncheon Tuesday at 3810 College avenue.

TRAIN ON LAST RUN: VETERAN CONDUCTOR DIES Operated Line for Quarter Century: End Laid to ‘Broken Heart.’ Fly United Prrm> WAYNESBURG, Pa., July 10.— Companions for more than a quarter of a century, Conductor James L. Shull and his passenger train on the Waynesburg & Washington narrow' gauge railroad have made their last run. Less than thirty minutes after the narrow gauge train had swayed to a halt at* the completion of its last official run last night, conductor Shull dropped dead. Medical men will ascribe his death to heart failure or some other ailment, but those who knew Shull—and there are none along the route of the narrow’ gauge train who didn’t, will shake their heads and say hV> death came from a broken heart over the train which would operate no more. When the train draped with flag bunting and glittering with the suncaught brass of Waynesburg’s American Legion band pulled out of the cinder-swept station at Waynesburg on a last “special” run, the sight was too much for the 62-year-old conductor who for twentysix years had made regular daily trips aboard. The “special” with 100 Waynesburg % Kiw'anians aboard made the trip w’hich was not listed on the timetables of the railroad and Shull was not the conductor any longer. Shortly before the train came into Waynesburg on its last run Shull sat in one of the passengers’ seats and sorted his last tickets. “I have been thirty-one years on the line, twenty-six of them in passenger service,” he said. "When I leave the line I will go into some other railroad service. I haven’t decided yet. I will go where they send me.” He was due to be retired on pension in a few’ days. Service on the narrow gauge railway w'as started by the Pennsylvania railroad in 1877. Woman Faces Poison Charge KENDALLVILLE. Ind..
