TAX REFORM IS UP TO LESLIE, SAYS SENATOR Governor Should Lead, Is View of Winfield Miller, Income Tax Advocate. Leadership in the matter of draftins; tax rerorm legislation should come from Governor Harry G. Leslie in the opinion of Senator Winfield Miller (Rep., Marion), one of the leaders of the Indianapolis group in the upper house. Miller expressed this view when he visited the statehouse Monday voicing a plea for a special session to solve the vexing taxation problems. “Os course the chief executive is the one to whom legislators and the people generally look for guidance in such trying times,” Senator Miller asserted. “A program which the majority of both the Republican senate and the Democratic house would support should not be so hard to draft. “I believe I could do it myself. Favors Income, Sales Taxes "The problem is to lift the tax burden from real estate, which no longer can bear it. So the thing to do is to have an income tax and sales taxes of a limited sort. “After all, both houses did pass an income tax bill at the regular session this year, but the Speaker of the house wrote all over it and made it voia. “As to the criticism that we were here in session sixty-one days and failed to solve the tax problem, I say that is nonsense, “A special session devoted entirely to taxation would work the matter out in short order. “At the regular session we were confronted with 900 bills and had little time to give due study to so weighty a problem as taxes. House Is Antagonistic “Out of that great welter of bills, nearly 200 were passed, so you can understand what a tremendous task we faced.” Senator Alonzo H. Lindley, Republican farm bloc leader from Kingman, also has charged Leslie with lack of leadership in solving the tax problem. But friends of the Governor point out the peculiar position in which he is placed, with the Democrats lidding the house, where all revenue bills must originate. State chairman of both parties are holding a referendum on the question of a special session among organization leaders. DRAMA OFFICERS NAMED St. Catherine’s Club Leaders to Be Installed Jan. 6.

SLUMP TEACHES ECONOMY. SAYS RAIL EXECUTIVE Industry Drawing Valuable Lesson From Adversity, Chicagoan’s View. The good that blows in any ill wind has been found in the business depression by C. O. Young of Chicago, assistant superintendent of the car department of the Illinois Central system, he said in an address here Monday night. He spoke before the Indianapolis Interchange Car Inspection Association at the Severin, on “Benefits Derived From the Business Depression.” Through the depression, he said, today’s industrialists have learned how to save, give more economical and efficient operation, and serve their customers better. “That science, aviation, and business were benefited by the World war is unquestionable,” he said. “What price benefit? I would by no means go so far as to say the benefits were of sufficient magnitude to justify our losses. “Nor, in the case of the business depression will I attempt to show you where the railroads have benefited in a degree sufficient to offset the millions of dollars lost. “On the other hand there are certain short cuts and tricks of the trade developed in times of adversity that never would come to light in the easy-going times of prosperity. “Wc have learned that a dollar saved in labor is worth just as much as a dollar saved in materials. “If progress consists of the practical application of economical methods, then we will, in the long run, benefit by the business depression,” he said.
