WATSON FAVORS STATES BALLOT ON PROHIBITION Denounced by Robinson for Aiding in Embarrassing of Democrats. It " I H'trrJ IT'H* WASHINGTON. .July 12— Senate Majority Loader James E. Watson announced in the senate today he would vote at any time in favor of a resolution resubmitting to the states the fate of the eighteenth amendment. Watson's announcement came in the midst ot an angry prohibition debate in which Minority Leader Joseph T. Robinson intimated he believed Watson secretly is aiding Senator Hiram Bingham (Rep., Conn.) in an effort to embarrass Democrats on the prohibition question. Watson's announcement came after Bingham had sent to the senate desk a resolution for repeal of the eighteenth amendment, where it will rest until the home loan bank bill is disposed of. Bingham also introduced a resolution directing the United States public health service to inquire among physicians and chemists to determine the consensus as to what alcoholic content would make a beverage actually intoxicating. Ashurst Raps Bingham Senator Ashurst (Dem., Ariz.) started a torrid speech, accusing Bingham of "lefthanded cunning" in seeking to force a vote on beer. Debate stopped when Senator Sheppard (Dem., Tex.), co-author of the eighteenth amendment, objected to further consideration of prohibition. Defeated irj the senate, 50 to 25, by a eombinatliun of Democratic and Republican senators, who did not want to face the issue at this time, Republican congressmen urging 2.75 per cent beer will seek, through Representative Fred A. Britten <Rep., 111.), to stampede Speaker John N. Garner to use his influence to get an immediate vote on the Hull-O'Connor bill. Plans Garner Challenge “I am prepared to challenge Speaker Garner to leave his rostrum and come down on the floor of the house to tell the country whether he is running on the Chicago Democratic platform or not," Britten announced today. "If he is, I will suggest that he give the house an opportunity to vote on the Democratic-Republican wet bloc beer bill now pending before the ways and means committee. "This bill will bring in approximately $300,000,000 in revenue the first year. "If Mr. Garner says he is not, I will promise not to harass him further in behalf of a beer vote before we adjourn. His words will be final with me, but I do want to know where he stands.” Garner has received the petition signed by Britten and seventy-six other Republican congressmen, asking an opportunity for an immediate vote, but he has not acknowledged it. Third Vote Against Beer Because it was published in the Congressional Record, he says it needs no personal reply. Monday was the third time in two months that the senate has refused to authorize legal beer. On May 18 it rejected a Bingham beer plan, 60 to 23, and again on May 25 it voted down a similar proposal, 55 to 26. Despite the forthright declaration of the Democratic platform urging “immediate modification of the Volstead law pending repeal,” only eleven Democratic senators voted Monday to support the Bingham amendment, while twenty-four voted to refer his measure to the judiciary committee, where it will remain until December. Want “Intoxicating” Ruling Democrats who voted for Bingham were Broussard, Bulkley, Coolidge, Copeland, Fletcher, Long, Pittman, Trammell, Tydings, Wagner and Walsh (Mass.). Democrats who voted against Bingham were Ashurst, Bailey, Black, Bratton. Byrnes, Mrs. Caraway, Cohen, ConnalJy, Costigan. Dill, George Glass, Gore, Harrison, Hayden, Hull. Kendrick. King. Lewis, McGill, McKcllar, Robinson lArk.), Sheppard and Stephens. Democrats contended that In postponing action they were not disregarding the Democratic platform. but are delaying until a competent commission could ascertain what alcoholic content constitutes an intoxicating beverage. Tire fourteen Republicans who voted lor immediate beer are Barbour, Bingham. Blaine. Davis, Glenn, Herbert. Johnson. Kean, La Follette, Metcalf. Moses, Patterson. Reed and Walcott.

Denman may well speak with authority for he has had more than forty years’ experience in the care and training of the big animals.

GOME players are especially clever in discovering and successfully working out squeeze plays. It is true that at times such plays are difficult jto recognize, but then again, by sinply counting a hand down and watching the drop of the cards, a player can obtain the information as to whether there is a possible squeeze in the hand.* 1 In the following hand the squeeze play is recognized quickly.

The Bidding The hand was played in a duplicate tournament. All but two tables played the hand at six hearts. At one table it was played at seven hearts, while another table played it at seven no trump. While seven no trump received top score on the board, hands of this type are usually much safer to play at a suit declaration. Practically every table was successful in making a grand slam. The Play At ihe table where seven hearts were bid, West opened with the queen of diamonds, which the declarer won with the ace. Declarer then played his ace and queen of hearts. * West showed out on the second heart, discarding the nine of diamonds. A small heart was led by declarer and won in dummy with the king. West dropped the ten of diamonds. Declarer then discarded a small club on dummy's king of diamonds. When West discarded the nine and ten of diamonds, this should show the declarer that he was attempting to protect both of the black suits, so the declarer should lead the eight of hearts from dumA GOOD BUSINESS SCHOOL Strong business, stenographic, secretarial and accountlng courses: individual instruction in major subjects, large faculty of specialists in their respective lines.

Os these, one of the most interesting is “Casper” who stands at one end of the long line of “bulls” in the menagerie tent. After many years of performing, Casper has been relegated to the working class, while younger elephants have taken his place in the sawdust rings.

He could not drop a spade, or dummy’s four spades would be good, so he was forced to discard the nine of clubs and this play gave the declarer three club tricks and the grand slam was made.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

STATE SENATE MAY SLASH PAY OF LEGISLATORS Wage Cut to Be Considered by Upper House; May Be Made $8 a Day. Having boosted the special session appropriation bill from the $50,000 figure passed by the house to $120,000, state senators today prepared to consider a salary cut for the members of both houses. Senator C. Oliver Holmes (Rep.), Gary, had a resolution prepared cutting legislators' pay to $8 a day, and it was reported to have the backing of numerous senators, including the Marion county delegation. Until 1929 the daily pay was $6. At that session it was increased to $lO, the present figure. Senator Robert L. Moorehead (Rep.), Indianapolis, declared he believed that the $8 pay scale should be adopted as "evidence of good faith.” Increase in the special session appropriation bill was voted by the senate upon recommendation of the finance committee, of which Senator Byron Huff (Rep.), Martinsville, is chairman. Huff explained that $50,000 would be insufficient should the session last the entire forty days, and it would be better to have a surplus to return to the general fund than be forced to make additional appropriations later. The committee report also restored the $6-a-day pay for senate and house employes. It had been cut to $5 in the house.

The Building and Loan Association In Our Financial Structure JT]T The Building and Loan Association occupies a unique position in j] the financial structure of the country. Banks are the exchanges of commerce. Without the banking system’s facilities for establishing and maintaining credit . . . industry would soon revert to barter and trade. A Building and Loan Association is NOT a bank. It is a mutually owned, mutually beneficial stock investment institution which operates upon the profit derived from first mortgage loans, made to borrowing members upon home property. The money lent is derived from investing members who buy shares of stock secured by these same first mortgages. Ownership of Building and Loan Association shares is not a privilege of the wealthy. Small investors may buy shares on weekly or monthly payments and receive dividends each six * months period on the amount invested. Compound dividends speed the growth of such invested funds. There are no other financial organizations of this same type, and the Building and Loan Associations, according to President Hoover, “have done more to bring about home ownership, encourage thrift and independence than any other financial institutions in the _- , country.” * Invest in your Marion County jT Associations. m Money invested in \ M these associations B works in Indianapolis. 5 B Invest in your local 3 I building: and loan as- 2 | sociation and help put K Indianapolis back to / THE MAR.ION COUNTY U&mie, of BUILDING & LOAN Copyright, 1932, A.
