INDIANA DAIRY COUNCIL TO BE FORMED SOON Group to Work on Problem of Falling Prices of Butter in Mid-West. Formation of an Indiana Dairy Council will be undertaken within the next, ten days, L. L. Needier, 'secretary-treasurer of the Indiana Farm Bureau Federation, indicated today. At a state-wide conference of milk and cream producers' co-oper-atives at the farm bureau headquarters Thursday, a committee comprised of D. R. George of Marion. Carl S. Hedges of Muncie, Fred Suhre of Columbus and Fred Hunt of Crawfordsvilie, was appointed to arrange for a meeting within ten days for purpose of organizing the dairy council. A representative of the national farm relief board is expected to attend the meeting. Discussion of the falling butter prices in Indianapolis and the entire mid-west, due to a surplus production, reduced consumption due to economic causes and uses of substitutes, and to heavy storage supplies of butter cream, was held by the producers Thursday. Action was deferred pending organization of the diary council, which was regarded as the logical agency to undertake a campaign for increased consumption of dairy products and for curtailment of production. Butter prices have dropped, retail, In Indianapolis, from 6 to 15 cents a pound. Prices now paid producers for milk butter fat are 14 cents a pound lower than those of the same time last year, producers declared, and the price is said to be below costs of production.

— —Rounding the 1930 Curve* Gentle Exercises Alone Are Found Insufficient

Carol Cotton . .. illustrates today’s medicine ball exercise.

This is the eleventh of a *erle* written by Jar Auer, famous as health adviser to the 'Tour Hundred.” BY JaFaUER Written for NEA Service GENTLE exercise alone will not enable women to round the 1930 curves, if they have accumulated fat. It is necessary to start with gentle exercises until the muscles are limbered up, the body toned up and the fat somewhat loosened. At this juncture, the best and most efficacious way of reducing is to inject a little hard exercise that works out the body. I often have made the statement that for health reasons, every one should do enough hard work to perspire freely at least twice a week. Perspiring cleanses the pores and sends the blood coursing through the body in a stimulating way. “Sweating out” in an electrical bath can not possibly do the same good that hard work does. Throwing the medicine ball is the first form of strenuous exercise I suggest for reducing. Once you get used to it, you will enjoy it tremendously. The first work with the medicine ball should be done in the following way: 1. Sit on the floor with a pillow behind you, when you start. Place your feet apart so that you can sit firmly. 2. Have someone throw the medicine ball to you so that you can catch it above your head. 3. Catch it and go on over back-

wards with it until you are flat on the floor. 4. Without changing the position of your arms (straight out over your head, holding the ball), sit up, keeping your leg position, and as you rise, throw the ball just before coming to upright position. This exercise is a marvelous abdominal reducer. It also takes the fat off arms and across the shoulders and strengthens all of the muscles through the neck and back. It is one of the most zestful exercises one can do and one that you will thoroughly enjoy when you get used to it. Do not overdo at first. For this is strenuous. But, beginning with a couple or three times daily, work until you can repeat ten or twelve times,* always throwing the ball just as you come back to upright position. Next: The medicine ball kick, for reducing abdomen and thighs. Driver Escapes Charge J?i< Times Special GREENCASTLE, Ind., Jan. 24. Jack Caldwell.

FILING TIME IS DEFENSE IN TAX INCREASE SUITS Point of Reasonable Period for Action Is Raised at Greenfield. BY CHARLES E. CARLL Times Staff Correspondent GREENFIELD, Ind., Jan. 23. Whether 15,500 Marion county taxpayers filed claims for tax refunds in a “reasonable” length of time after a horizontal assessment raise in 1919, 1920 and 1921 became the paramount question here today in consideration of whether s4,ou j ,oj excess taxes collected should be refunded. In Hancock circuit court, before Judge Arthur C. Van Duyn, attorneys for the Marion county commissioners and the Indiana Taxpayers Association, fighting seven suits of taxpayers demanding the refunds from the county, indicated thov w^re

Thai COLD Colds come suddenly. You can often end them just as quickly! Take Bayer Aspirin the moment you’ve caught one. A single sneeze should be the signal, or the first sign of congestion or headache, or soreness. Exposure to cold and wet isn’t half so serious when you’ve learned to protect yourself with Bayer Aspirin, t’or the speedy relief of colds, headaches, neuralgic or neuritic pain, and even the acute suffering caused by rheumatism, there is nothing so sure and so safe as genuine Aspirin tablets stamped Bayer. They make a marvelous gargle, too. See proven directions in every package. IAYER ASPimi Aapirin is the trade mark ol Bayer Manufacture of Monoaceticacideoter of SalicyUcacid

not disputing claims that the tax collectors may have been illegal. When the plaintiff ended their evidence this morning, attorneys for the defense indicated the defense would proceed on the basis that the tax refund law requires that demands for refunds be filed within a reasonable” length of time. It was shown by the defense that no claims were presented for refunds until 1928, when the horizontal tax increase, basis for the suits, was made last in 1921. The horizontal increase resulted in collection of $8,000,000 in excess taxes in Marion county during the three years, but the amount which may be returned is about $4,000,00, it is estimated. The increase w T as declared unconstitutional by the Indiana supreme court in 1920 and the specil session of the state legislature in the same year passed an act legalizing the increase. The case of Lynn B. Millikan was -- f— * t-dev will H. Thompson. attorney for the plaintiff, moved that all the cases be con'-i'llr'et'-d ,i truer that a ruling would apply tn all of them. Despite objections r* r.r—ts B. Ewbank. attorney for the county commissioners and the n., _a payers’ Association, Judge Van Duyn ruled to consolidate all seven pending cases.

passed the legalizing statue, the state board of tax commisioners met and gave the Marion county board of review orders to increase the tax assessment list horizont-lly. No notice was given of the meeting, the plaintiffs condtended, to indivuals or the townships as a whole. The plaintiffs contended the action illegal because of this action, and contended the 1919 horizontal increase illegal through decision of the supreme court. Millkan and Saul Munter, another plaintiff, on the witness stand testified they received no notice of the meeting or of the tax increase ordered. It was indicated evidence might be completed by 3 Or 4 this after-
