REPEAL OF DRY ACT IS ASKED IN HOUSE BILL Barbers Call for Licenses: Relief of Small Home Owner Sought. Losing no time in carrying out suggestions of Governor Paul V. McNutt, members of the Indiana house today introduced thirty-five bills and joint resolutions, most important. of which was a measure for outright repeal of the Wright bone dry law. Other measures are for the purpose of repealing statutes which make certain acts of public boards and commissions mandatory. Providing that repeal of the Wright law will be effective on signature by the Governor, the “wet” measure \ as introduced by three Vanderburgh county representatives, J. Henry Monnig. Marion J Rice, and Jacob J. Reisingcr, all Democrats. Income Tax Pushed Floor Leader Edward H. Stein and Caucus Chairman Frank Finney. Democrats, sponsored a resolution providing * for submission of an income tax amendment to article ten of the state constitution. Other bills introduced were to make optional the post of superintendent of building and grounds in Indianapolis schools; to consolidate jobt; of other officers; repeal the mandatory law of 1927 providing son construction of the Evansviile-Ohid river bridge in co-operation with Kentucky; permit liquidation ol building and loan associations by order of state banking officials, to sell real estate at public auction and accept notes secured by mortgages In purchase arrangements; amend the prison products law to prevent sale to other than state institutions; place 5-cent a pound tax on oleomargarina; exhibit of poll and properly tax receipts before i* suance of licenses, and to permit school boards to contribute to nonprofit art associations. Barber Law Sought Members of both houses have been .notified that the Journeyman Barbers’ International Union will ask for passage of a barbers’ licensing law, providing for creation of a three-member board, composed of practical barbers. The board would be appointed by the Governor. The bill would set up sanitary stipulations and conditions for barber shops, would prevent operators in beauty parlors from cutting hair unless licensed, and would provide for examinations for licenses four times a year. Representative H. H. Evans, leader of the Republican house minority, has announced that he is preparing a measure to take all authority from the state tax board, although not abolishing the board, through repeal of the present law governing it. Evans would have all tax appeals taken to the local circuit court and then appealed to the supreme court, instead of the present system providing for direct appeal to the tax board. Help for Home Owner One method of lifting the tax burden from the small home owner is proposed in a bill to be introduced by Representative Charles F. Ruschaupt of Indianapolis, which would provide an exemption of; $5,000 in tax assessments on all i homes in which the owner resides and which do not provide rentals ! or other income. Declaring that he is aware that enactment of such exemption would slash the tax income derived from real estate. Ruschapt proposes to make up the difference through a sales levy. A bill designed to extend the 1931 tax foreclosure moratorium act to permit persons to come within its purview who now have the money to pay the current installment, but arc delinquent in past taxes, is being prepared by Representatives J. i Clinn Ellyson of Hammond, and John F. Cory of Gary.

By t nih and Pi ck* PARIS, Jan. 10. —The newly formed French government stood in j the shadow of possible defeat today as anew session of parliament conj veiled in the historic Palais Bourbon, where the government of Edouard Herriot was overthrown less than a month ago. The reaction of the chamber of deputies to the drastic economy measure of Henry Cheron, finance minister, was uncertain. Many believed Cheron could not force his measures through. Herriot and other chamber leaders were sceptical of the proposals. Premier Joseph Paul-Boncour planned to ask a vote of confidence on the outline of the 1933 budget. Socialists, who overthrew the | Herriot government, said they would | not. accept food taxes or extension of taxes on business. Representatives of government functionaries refused to endorse reductions planned by goA’ernment technicians amounting to $420,000,i 000. following a conference with ! Cheron.

LOBBYIST BAN IS ADOPTED BY STATESENATE Strict Rules Are Approved to Prevent ‘Horning In’ by Outsiders. The Indiana senate this afternoon adopted stringent rules, barring all | persons, except members, senate officials, reporters and employes from the floor. Senator Chester A. Perkins 'Dem., South Bend), chairman of the rules committee, presented a report recommending that senators be permitted to bring guests on the floor. This was opposed by Senator E. Curtis White iDem., Indianapolis), who, speaking from experience in the house, said such a rule left the way open for lobbyists to get attention of senators at their desks. Cloakroom ‘Chats’ Barred Floor rules include one which would prevent ‘’cloakroom’’ buttonholing of senators. The rule also permits only members, other officials, employes, and members of the press in the Senate chamber in the cloakrooms. Admission by a senator’s invitation only will be on a pass signed by the member or the president of the senate and the pass would be taken up by the doorkeeper. The pass will not be transferable, and will admit visitors to a special section. The senate corrected an error made Monday in reducing the number of standing committees from fifty to forty-three. It was found that the rules committee had been omitted. Asa result of the change there will be forty-four standing committees. A rule which forbade amending bills on third reading was changed to read that amendments will be permitted on a two-thirds vote. Other Rules Go Over Other rules adopted were: When sitting as a committee of the whole, the senate will hear bills read by .sections twice, instead of by title only. Required vote on a motion to reconsider, which was a majority of senator present, was changed to a majority of the whole membership, which is twenty-six. Motions for reconsideration must be filed within three days of the original disposition, and only one reconsideration will be considered. The senate received House Bill No. 1, to appropriate $129,500 for expenses of the session. The measure was referred to the finance committee.

i plea on the petit larceny count. Echoes of the fatal shooting last j summer of Miss Margaret Leia Byj ers. 17. on High School road during a holdup, were h?ard as the trial started. Hiatt was alleged to have been one of the two bandits who raided the home of Herman Voight, R R. 2, Box 419-F. where Mr. and Mrs. Wal- ■ ter Thompson, 1504 Main street. Speedway City, were guests. H'.att was charged with taking $8 from Thompson. The shooting occurred when a mysterious shotgun charge was fired from a nearby field, after the bnn- | dits had forced Miss Byers and a | companion from their car shortly after leaving the Voight home. Kenneth Perkins, 19. of R. R. 18. Box 610, Miss Byers' companion, also was struck by the charge. Miss Byers died in a roadside ditch be- , fore aid arrrived and Perkins recovered in a local hospital.
