HIGHWAY BILL GIVEN SUPPORT OF AUTO CLUB Reorganization Plans Also Boosted by Hint of <- •Startling Report.’ Impetus was given the highway department reorganization bill today by promise of a “startling report’’ from the senate investigation committee in regard to the present highway department's failure to collect federal aid, and by formal backing from the Hoosicr Motor Club of Marlon county. The committee report is expected o be given the senators Thursday, it was announced by Senator Charles L. Strey (Rep., Kosciusko and Wabash), chairman of the highway investigation committee. Meanwhile, the bill, which was j introduced in the senate by Strey j md Senator Anderson Ketchum ! Dem., Bartholomew, Decatur, Franklin and Union), chief inquls-, tor of the committee, was advanced to third reading in the | mate Tuesday afternoon with little ' Tort to halt it. The bill now waits final passage. Urged Bill Be Kept Alive Under its provisions the present late highway commission and directorship would be abolished and a full-time, bi-partisan, four-man commission would be substituted. Commissioners would be appointed from each of the four present highway districts. Appointments would be made by the Governor, with senate approval. Senator John C. Sherwood (Rep., Lawrence, Martin and Orange), moved to indefinitely potspone the bill on second reading Tuesday.; Ketchum made a short talk urging that it be placed on third reading and ‘ kept alive, at least until the highway investigation committee presents its report.’’ Sherwood’s motion promptly was tabled Directors Vote Approval Approval of the bill was voted at a special meeting of the directors of the Hoosier Motor Club of Marlon j county Tuesday afternoon. Principal reason for support of the bill, as given by Secretary Todd Stoops of the club, is to try and save the $6,500,000 for state highways that the senate already has voted to put into the general fund. Tlois money is derived from the sale of automobile licenses. “For t.he last several years there has been much criticism of the state highway commission,” Stoops asserted. “It is felt by the directors of the Hoosier Motor Club that our state highway c —mission might function better if conyiosed of men devoting their full time to its purpose. Called “Highway Robbery” “Thp-e is much justification for some criticism of the present state highway commission and its present director. John J. Brown. Many legislators feel that the present highway commission system is faulty or that the present commissioners and directors are- incompetent. For this reason they are planning to reduce the funds available for the state highway system, returning it to the state for reduction of the state tax levy.” Tins fund diversion was terpied “highway robbery” and the directors of the club went on record as “will-! ing to try out any senstble method of administering the highway funds in order to save them for the state highway system.” A statement was issued by the Hoosier State Automobile Association, which functions outside of Marion county and of which Jesse Murden. Peru, member of the present state highway commission is a director, upholding the present lnw.

INTANGIBLE PROPERTY TAX BILL ADVANCES Securities Would Be Assessed at 25 Per Cent Face Value. After a debate of almost an hour the Indiana house Monday accepted majority committee report recommending passage of the McClain bill providing for assessment of Intangible property at 25 per cent of its face value, Instead of the 100 per cent as now. The vote against substitution of the minority report for indefinite postponement was 42-25. The measure, favored by the state tax board, was declared by its proponents to be the only method whereby concealed mortgages, bonds, certificates of deposit, chattel mortgages and other intangible assets could be brought out for taxation.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

CHART FUTURE LIKE ARCHITECT, RUSSIA'S AIM •Blueprints' of Development Are Drafted to Keep Nation Going Ahead. This Is the third of the aeries of eleven article* by Enrene Lyons. Lnited Press correspondent at Moscow, summing up his impressions of the Soviet Cnion after three years of residence there. BY EUGENE LYONS United Press Staff Correspondent MOSCOW, Feb. 25.—The new Russia is not content to prophesy its future in glowing literary terms. It insists on the language of figures, percentages, graphs and tables. It tries to chart its future as rigidly as an architect plans the building of a house. Therefore, the extraordinary fiveyear plan of national economy. Therefore, a larger but equally concrete fifteen-year plan in the offing, f These are blueprints of future national development covering not only industry but science, education, art, standards of living. Russia traditionally was a nation content to drift along, to w T ait patiently. The drug-like effect of its “neechevo”—meaning roughly “it doesn’t matter”—has not yet worn off by any means. In the five-year-plan and all it implies we have the antithesis of all that. They See New Era Precisely because their people are prone to inertia and postponement, the vigorous Bolshevik minority insists not merely on speed but on speed accurately planned and organized in advance. For them an “American era” has dawned in Russia. This fact in itself, quite aside from whether they succeed or hot in following out the blueprints, digs a sharp frontier between past and future. The claim made by over-zealous Soviet friends that the charts and plans are being accurately followed and fulfilled are nonsensical. The grossest miscalculations have already been disclosed. The plan as understood today is only distantly related to the one originally announced. The changes have been in both directions, the work being intensified in some sectors and slowed up in others. Wrench Peasants From Grooves In the domain of agriculture, in collectivizing the peasants and building up state-owned grain factories, the Soviet successes have bee n so great that the original blueprint looks like an incoherent childish scrawl. The five-year plan foresaw fifty million acres sowed by collectives in 1933, but already last year they planted over one hundred seven million acres. In 1930 half the marketable farm products came from the so-called socialized sector, that is, from state and collective farms. This year half the peasant population, whom no one dreamed to wrench so soon from the grooves of private property, will be in collectives. Enormous Price Paid The price paid for thesd' successes is enormous; in food shortage, cruelty to kulak families and suffering generally. The five-year plan was greeted skeptically, not only outside, but inside the Soviet Union. Yet by and large its major tasks have thus far been accomplished. Last year industry was twice as large as before the war, and the Increase scheduled for this year is larger than the whole of pre-war production. NEXT: Sharp lines mark division of Soviet classes.

of lean meats, vegetables like spinach, cauliflower, cabbage, tomatoes, etc., and lots of salads. Eat a lot. Eat all you can hold. Don’t go hungry a minute. Cut down on butter, sweets and deserts, bread. Eat any fruit except bananas, for desert. That s all you do. Fat seems to melt away. The course lines of overweight give way to the refined ones of slenderness. You lose as much as a pound a day You feel better than for years. For in this treatment you achieve two important results. The .Tad Salts clar your system of toxins. *The diet takes off fat with foods that turn to energy instead of weight. If you’re tired of being embarrassed by fat, try this way. You'll be glad that you did. You can get Jad Salts at any drug store. •Note particularly—the salts are urg*d purely as a poison-banishing agent—not as a reducing. The change in food does the work.—Advertisement

JAMES J. DAVIS DENIES SUGAR LODBHHARGE ‘Never For or Against,’ Says Senator Before Probe Board. By United Press WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.—Senator Janies J. Davis (Rep., Pa.) appeared today before the senate lobby committee and made an unqualified denial he ever had “lobbied for or against any sugar tariff measure.” Davis read a brief statement before the committee after an executive meeting attended by Chairman Thaddeus H. Caraway (Dem., Ark.); Senator Thomas J. Walsh (Dem., Mont.); Senator Arthur R. Robinson (Rep., Ind.), and Senator John J. Blaine (Rep., Wis.) The preliminary open hearing, summoned merely to give Davis an opportunity to make his statement, lasted only a few minutes. Caraway said afterward that he doubted the committee would be able to meet Davis’ wishes with respect to a report before this session of congress adjourns. The committee is to meet again subject to the call of the chairman. , Davis’ statement was as follows: “If the charges which were read into the Congressional Record Tuesday from a metropolitan newspaper refer to me, I most emphatically state that I never lobbied for or against any sugar tariff measure; that I never have spoken to anybody in congress or any one in government service about putting a duty on sugar; that I never have received any money or anything of value for any such alleged service. “It is a contemptible lie, and I am glad that it is out in the open so that the matter can be investigated thoroughly and the falsehood killed once for all. “The charge is a serious one. The senate and the public are entitled to promptly know all the facts; to condemn, if true; to absolve, if untrue. “Congress soon will adjourn. I earnestly urge you in behalf of the citizens of the state of Pennsylvania, our nation, my family, and myself to fully inquire into the accusations and make your conclusions public before the adjournment of this congress.” Bandit Slays Grocer By United Press GARY, Ind., Feb. 25.—Walter Kolodzieski, 44, Gary grocer, died today of wounds suffered Tuesdaynight when shot by a Negro bandit who robbed him of $7. A daughter Mary, 13, attempted to save the money in the cash register when the robber entered, but failed.
