LEGISLATURE ENDS SESSION; DRYS TRIUMPH Repeal Bill Dies; Governor’s Veto Is Forecast for Utility Measure. (Continued from '’age 1) the Nejdl motion be tabled and this was done, by a 19 to 15 vote. Openly and without equivocation, Nejdl, speaking on his motion to discharge the committee, said that no attempt to confer with the house wets had been made by the senate drys. "The senate's conference committee evaded meetings with Weiss Saturday afternoon, Sunday and all day today," he said. "They attempted to use the repeal bill as a means to log roll some of their own measures, promising to compromise if the house would suspend rules and push through their pet bills. "Our committee of drys made no effort to compromise. Why, I never have traded a vote in the many years that I have been a member of this body, yet one of the members of the conference committee asked me to go to the house and bring out one of his pet, measures.” Weiss, in reporting back to the house in the afternoon, had explained the situation and asked that the first committee, Composed of himself and Representative Howard S. Grimm 'Rep.), Auburn, be discharged, because Representative Miles Furnas, Republican whip, w'ould not permit Grimm to meet with him.

Committee Is Discharged Speaker Walter Myers discharged this committee and then appointed Weiss and Ryan. Although the public utility measure is in the hands of Leslie for executive approval or veto, sponsors said they feared Ogden will rule the provisions unconstitutional. The bill lamoves municipally owned utilities from public service commission control. Ogden ruled the original bill unconstitutional before it was amended my a conference committee of both houses. Under the utility bill, cities and towns would be required to conduct elections to determine whether the municipality desires to purchase or establish a utility, after 5 per cent of the legal voters have filed petition*. $1.50 Tax Bill Stands Legislators adjourned without enacting any modification of the $1.50 property tax limitation law\ Attempt to raise the state rate from 15 to 20 cents was thwarted and the only added revenues provided are from the pari-mutuel betting bill, w hich is expected to contribute several hundred thousand dollars to the state school fund. Report was abroad that the Governor may veto the measure. The board of agriculture was reputed to be seeking to kill the measure because no revenue is provided for it. House bills providing for intangibles and income taxes were turned down by the senate on the last day, and the special committee drafting a sales tax failed to report. Tax relief measures enacted are estimated to have slashed $12,500,000 from the total budgets, which would mean at least a 25-eent saving on the average property rate of $2.82.

HOUSE CLERK VOTED BONUS PAY OF $750 But Women W r ho Do Actual W’ork Are Refused $1 a Day. Although the house of representatives refused to vote a $1 a day bonus for permanent employes during the special session, it voted an additional $750 to Dick Heller, its clerk, for indexing the journal. At, the end of the sixty-one day session of 1931 Heller was voted more than S9OO for indexing journal, and it was at that time that the journal was almost one year late in isuuance. Heller also received his regular pay of $6 a day for the forty days of the special session. The special pay was voted on motion of Representative R, Earl Crawford <Dem.), Milton, sponsor and fighter for the budget slash and other economy bills. Women in the journal room who do the actual work of compiling the record get no extra pay for the work which they must complete before they are discharged.

Why Fat Folks Stay Fat ’ The trouble with me, and I guess this applies to 99% of the men and women who are putting on weight, I didn't have the energy or "pep” to keep it off. Lost all interest in any healthy activity and just lazed around accumulating the old pounds." Start taking Kruschen Salts—that's the common-sense SAFE way to reduce. This is what they do—they clean out the impurities in your blood by keeping the bowels, kidneys and liver in splendid working shape and fill you with a vigor and tireless energy you'd most forgotten had existed. A* a result instead of planting yourself in an easy chair every free moment snd letting flabby fat accumulate, you feel an urge for activity that keeps you moving around doing the things you've aiwaxs wanted to do and needed to do to ke“i yon in good condition. Re careful of the foods you eat—go light on fa tty mea's and pastry —then "ateh the pounds slide off! Take one half teaspoonfni in a glass of hot water to morrow morning and every morning —and if they don't change your whole idea of reducing, go bark and get the small price you paid for them. Get. a bottle of Kruschen Salts —lasts 4 weeks —at any progressive druggist anywhere in the world but for your healths sake when reducing be sure and get Kruschen—it's the safe. harm-. le way to reduce,—Advertisement. 1

INDICT EIGHT IN MINE DEATH Witnesses for Defense in Earlier Trials Accused. By Scripps-Howard Xeicspaprr Alliance HARLAN, Ky., Aug. 16. With five miners already sentenced .to life imprisonment for conspiracy to murder Jim Daniels, Black Mountain Coal Company guard, eight others have been indicted on the same charge. All eight were defense witnesses in the earlier trials. They had not been mentioned in connection with the alleged murder conspiracy until after giving their testimony intended to help free their fellow miners. The charges grew out of a battle between coal company men and ! striking miners in Evarts in May, j 1931. The general defense committee, i which is directing defense of the j miners, charges that the convictions "clearly are the result of a frame-up engineered by the coal mine operators of Hai'lan couhty with the aim of smashing industrial unionism in the Cumberland valley fields.” William Hudson, fifth man convicted in the murder trials, was tried by a “Bluegrass jury,” as were three of the four men found guilty earlier. The defense committee charges that the cases were transferred from a mining region to one where there is little sympathy for organized labor.
