INTEREST RATE CUT ON PETTY LOANS ASKED Slash From 42 to 18 Per Cent Annually Provided by Measure. First step toward passage of a senate bill slashing the petty loan interest rats from 3' 2 to 14 per cent a month was taken today, when the bill was reported from committee ‘'without recommendation." This report carries with it the same intent as approval and was accepted immediately by the senators without a dissenting voice. Senator Chester K. Watson 'Dem.. Ft. Wayne t, explained before the ression convened that the ‘‘without recommendation” course was taken in deference to the administration’s banking bill, pending in the house. Commission to Set Rate That bill provides that the bank- - ing commission, established under its provisions, set the rate on petty loans, it might be amended in the senate to incorporate the 14 per cent rate, it was pointed out. Another opportunity may be given voters to pass judgment on an income tax amendment. The joint house resolution, which would place such amendment on Jthe ballot, received senate committee approval and the report was adopted. It must pass two sessions of the legislature before again being submitted to a referendum. The amendment as on the ballot at the fall election, but failed to receive a majority of votes cast, although voted on favorably by a majority of those who voted for constitutional amendments. Majority Is Needed A majority of all votes cast is necessary for passage. The mortgage exemption bill, previously postponed, was reconsidered and returned to second reading l for amendment. It would increase j mortgage exemptions, in executions; of judgments and bankruptcies, from S6OO to $2,000. Senator Chester A. Perkins (Dem., j South Bend) is the author, and Senator Jacob Weiss 'Dem., Indianapolis) moved for reconsideration.! Although referred to the committee on military affairs, a bill to | require a license from county auditors to conduct newspaper and periodical subscription contests received a favorable report for passage. Other bills reported for passage raise the age of commitment at the j Indiana Boys School from 16 to 17 set jurors' pay at $2.50 a day and authorizes municipal water compa- j nies to transfer a surplus to the general fund. Measure is Recommitted Although reported for indefinite postponement, bill of Senator Herbert V. Tormohton (Rep., Portland) for municipal meter readers was recommitted so that the senator can appear before the committee. Senators have another opportunity to simplify voting on candidates for President and Vice-Presi-dent of the United States, under terms of a bill passed by the house and referred to the senate today. This measure substitutes names of the candidates for names of presidential electors on all ballots. It will be considered with a senate bill covering separation of state and national tickets on paper ballots as well as 011 voting machines. Cherrycolored paper for presidential ballots and cherry-colored ballot boxes are required by a bill passed to engrossment in the senate, in keeping j with attempts to simplify ballots at j all general elections.

AUTHOR’S NOTE—Those answers are riven from the scientific point oi view. Not ail moral questions can be answered with absolute• scientific accuracy, but no decision as to what is right conduct or sound morals is possible without science. Science puts the rights of organized society above the righls oi individuals.

I—Yes, because women in general are somewhat more self-centered than men. If ten men and ten women were married at random, the statistical chances are* that four of the women probably would be mated with men to whom a joke on themselves would be very distasteful. But these four women would be good sports about being ‘‘kidded.’’ The remaining six women would not be as good sports as their mates. There is, therefore, about a sixtyforty chance that a man who plays a joke on a woman will wish he had been thinking of something else.

the Governor if the new highway commission bill is passed was made by Senator L. L. Shull (Rep., Sharpesville), who offered amendment setting salaries at $3,600 instead of $5,200. His motion was voted down by majority members without debate. Banks and trust companies. would be prohibited from drawing wills and soliciting other forms of le' r al business by provisions of a bill introduced today by Senator Jesse E. Wade (Dem., Mt. Vernon). Other new bills presented at today’s session included one to create a state committee on automobile accident prevention and collection of statistics. Legalizing of acts of certain building and loan associations in northern counties was asked in a bill sponsored by Senator Chester K. Watson (Dem., Ft. Wayne), who said his measure would clarify s-mie confusion now existing as to laws governing these institutions.

numbers of intelligent women, the findings of science have had considerable influence. Women, as never before, are mixing common sense with romance in sizing up the qualities of a marriage partner, and the more thoughtful help they can get, the better. Most marriages which fail do so because people are such poor judges of human nature and this is chiefly because they have no standards. Experience has proved that training in judging human qualities sensibly raises and clarifies young women’s standards as to congenial mates. My answer is Yes. 3.—Speaking as an old newspaper man and not as a scientist my observation has been that men usually need the cup that cheers before they unload their troubles on each other. But the way women in beauty shops, clubs and conventions pour out their troubles to each other, all the way from poodles to husbands, would make my hair stand on end if there were enough of it left. Asa mere man, after pretty wide observation, I would vote, ‘•Yes.’’

Rail Labor Chiefs Press U. S. Loans to Families Three Measures, One for Human Relief and Two to Speed Economic Recovery Are Urged. \ BY RUTH FINNEY Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON. Jan. 20.—Immediate enactment of three measures, one for human relief and two for economic recovery, was asked today by the Railway Labor Executives Association, excluding a three-day conference here. For relief, the labor union men ask passage of the La FolletteCostigan $500,000,000 federal aid bill.

For permanent recovery’, it asks creation of the United States Exchange Corporation proposed in bills by Senator Edward R. Costigan and Representative F. H. La Guardia, to extend credit to unemployed heads of families! and also civil mobilization of national resources,. manpower and industrial 'facilities to produce a permanent economic improvement and a stabilization of production and distribution. Support Is Enlisted A longer time program for the future includes indorsement of the six-hour day, retirement insurance, extension of workmen’s compensation, unemployment reserves and full-crew legislation for railroad workers. The United States Exchange Corporation plan quietly has been enlisting support of members of congress since its first presentation last summer. Bills on the subject now pending provide for launching the corporation with a capital of $500,000,000, and permission to issue notes for five times this sum. The $3,000,000,000 thus raised would be used to extend SSOO credit to each unemployed family head qualifying for it. Successful applicants would be given certificates exchangeable for food, clothing and other necessaries of life, not including rent. Licensed dealers would accept the certificates and receive cash for them from the corporation. Loans to Families Each SSOO loan would be expected to support a family for six months. It would be payable ten years from date with interest gradually increasing from 1 per cent. If unemployed borrowers obtained work they would be required to pay 10 per cent of their wages to the corporation to apply on their loans. The plan is expected to stimulate purchasing power sufficiently so that industry will revive enough to put large numbers of men and women back to work. Ten million gallons of alcohol used in this country last year were made from a by-product of natural gas.

CITY PAIR WED HIGHJNCLOUDS National Guard Flier Stays True to His Calling in Ceremony. Most brides and bridegrooms, especially the latter, are ‘‘up in the air.” figuratively, during the marriage ceremony, and do not get “back to earth” until after the honeymoon. But one Indianapolis couple really was up in the air at the wedding at 9 Thursday night, and got back to earth a few minutes later, before starting the honeymoon. They were Miss Gladys J.
