PLEA TO STAY STATE REPEAL IS SMOTHERED Move Made in House for Striking Out Emergency Clause Beaten. EVANS ASKS FOR DELAY Fourteen New Bills Are Introduced in House During Day. Attempt to kill the emergency clause in the Wright bone dry repeal was defeated by an overwhelming voice vote in the house of representatives today. When the repealer, an administration bill bearing names of more than thirty representatives, came down for second reading, Representative H. H. Evans (Rep., Newcastle), minority floor leader, moved to amend it by striking out the emergency clause. “There's no reason for a big rush about this Wright repeal bill," said Evans. “I know you Democrats are going to pass it. but you must remember that all Indiana's liquor laws except the drunken driving act are bound up in this repeal move. “If you make an emergency of this repealer, the people of Indiana won’t have any protection whatever, because all liquor prosecutions except cases of drunken driving will hr up to federal courts. No Emergency, Says Evans “Why not let the repeal become an act in orderly manner and after due time, just like any other bill? Why not wait until congress acts? I personally have little doubt that the Volstead act will be repealed. That's time enough for Indiana to act. There's no emergency.” Representative Fred Galloway <Dem., Indianapolis) immediately obtained the floor. “I insist there is an emergency," sajd Galloway. “Last summer, I needed medicinal whisky when doctors told me I had only a year to live. I've only got four months to go and this repeal is a personal emergency with me.” Representative J. Clinn F.llyson (Deni., Hammond), moved Evans’ amendment be tabled and this was done with a clamor of “ayes” from the wets with only a few scattered votes from the drys. Would Protect Raccoons Fourteen lew bills were introduced today in the house, including the integrated stat bar bill. A bill by Representative Everett S. Priddy <Dcm.. Huntington), ould provide for protection of raccoons by fining any person dislodging or attempting to dislodge any raccoon from its den or place in which it has taken cover. Representative Harry G. Strickland (Dorn., Greenfield), introduced a bill for protection of the portraits of Indiana governors, placing them under the care of the state library and historical board. The house killed seven bills on committee recommendation for indefinite postponement and adopted favorable reports on five measures. Bills indefinitely postponed intruded two which would have prevented changes in grade and high school textbooks within five years of adoption, provided they remained on the approved list of the state board of education.

Olher Bills Lost Other measures lost were three from the committee on natural resources relating to fish and game, and including one which provided a button be issued with each fishing and huntnig license, to be worn on the clothing of the licensee while fishing or hunting. Report of Judiciary Committee B lor indefinite postponement of a bill which provided stay of mortgage foreclosure proceedings was adopted. The bill was attacked in committee hearing Wednesday on the grounds of constitutionality and menace to business. Bill require all school corporations to operate on the bsis of a fiscal year to begin Aug. 1 was advanced to second reading. Others sent to the same reading were two from the senate, one repealing th 1927 statute permitting erection of buildings over streets and alleys and the other clarifying the flood prevention law as it reltaes to Indianapolis.

MORE FEES FOR SHERIFFS ASKED Repeal of Law Reducing Mileage Rates Filed in Senate. Senate committee on labor, after its meeting Wednesday, announced that further action on a bill relating to inspection of stationary boilers would be deferred, pending a new plan to he sponsored by a group of mechanical engineers. Additional fees for sheriffs are advocated in a senate bill sponsored by Senator Fred A. Egan (Dem., Gary), Sena*or George Sands (Dem., South Bend), and Senator Herbert V. Tormohlen (Rep., Portland). Egan claims a law, cutting mileage rates for sheriffs, passed at last summer’s special session of the assembly, should be replaced and that county commissioners should be privileged to buy automobiles for use of sheriff.

R. F. C. LOANS MADE PUBLIC; | TOTAL BILLION Huge Advances Disclosed to Big Corporations, Banks and Railroads. FORCED BY HOUSE ACT Every City of Any Size in County Represented on Borrower List. B<j I nitcd Press WASHINGTON. Jan. 26.—Secrecy which for nearly a year has hidden early activities of the Reconstiuc- ; tion Finance Corporation ended today, with a report to the house detailing loans totaling $1,171,983,307. The great lending agency, set up to save a nation's financial strucI ture, disclosed that, during the first six months of its existence it made more than 5,000 advances to great corporations, banks and railroads. The disclosure was forced by a house resolution sponsored by Representative Edgar Howard (Dem., Neb.). For months the corporation has fought publicity, holding it would be dangerous to its borrowers. Today, over strenuous protests, it submitted to Clerk of House South Trimble a voluminous, detailed report of its activities from its beginning on Feb. 2 to July 21, 1932. Reveals Millions in Loans Loans since July 21 have been published monthly. In hundreds of pages of manuscript and long row's of figures, the | report revealed how the government | poured out hundreds of millions j during the financial crisis last I spring. Every state in the Union and | nearly every city of any size was i represented in the report. It detailed advances made to Ismail county banks; to great railroads laced with refining operations jof tremendous magnitude; to banking institutions in the financial | nerve centers of the nation. Os these total loans, the balance outstanding Jan. 6 was $838,651,875. Repayments of principal up to that time had totaled $267,532,363. Ranks Barrow Heavily By far the heaviest borrowers | were banks and trust companies. Prior to July 21, loans of $702,942,914 had been authorized to them. Building and loan associations received authorized advances of $64,710.783; mortgage loan companies, $79,972,000; insurance companies, $65.551,500. and railroads, $223,412,- | 109. j In many instances the actual funds disbursed were somewhat less J than the authorized amounts. Other loans were extended to fedi eral land banks, joint stock land I banks, livestock and agricultural | credit corporations and credit unions, and loans for direct agricultural relief administered by the secretary of agriculture. The report accorded official confirmation to three large leans which have figured in national political controversy, loans of $64,500,000 to the Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association of San Francisco; $90,000,000 to the Chicago I Central Republic Bank and Trust Company, and $12,272,500 to the Cleveland Guardian Trust Company.

Loan Just Disclosed The loan to the Bank of America before had never been officially confirmed. All but approximately $7,003.000 had been repaid by Jan. 6 of this year. The Chicago advance was made to the great financial institution directed by Charles G. Dawes. This was the largest loan listed in the report. The comparatively small advance to the Cleveland institution aroused particular interest, due to the fact that the present chairman of the Reconstruction Corporation, Atlee Pomerene. was an official of the institution at the time the loan was j made. Advances to insurance companies during the six months period were also made public for the first time and revealed loans were made to institutions in twenty-four states.

7-POINT PLAN DRAFTED FOR U. S. RECOVERY Dr. R. G. TLigwell Prepares Program for Roosevelt Guidance. RICH WOULD PAY SHARE Billions for Public Works: Sound Currency One of High Lights. BV FORREST DAVIS ! (Copyrißht, 1933. for Scnpps-Howard Newspapers) NEW YORK. Jan. 26.—1n his of- ■ fice at Columbia college. Dr. Rexford Guy Tugwell, liberal economist. and chief expert advisor to President-Elect Roosevelt, today enunciated a sweeping seven-point! program for recovery which very likely will form the framework of the incoming administration's lestorative policies. Here is Dr. Tugwell's national plan: 1 Higher income and inheritance taxes, particularly in upper brackj ets. 2. Widespread public works program. possibly entailing $5,000,000.000 at the start; direct relief to indigent unemployed; intense stimulation to senu-public works projects, such as slum clearance, through the R. F. C. Would Cut Utility Rates 3. Reduction in interest and pub- ■ lie utility rates. 4. Sound currency; no inflation. 5. Budget balanced as to current expenditure; with repeal of the eighteenth amendment as a factor in raising revenues. 6. Restoring the balance between ; wholesale prices, especially for agrij cultural products, and retail prices |to consumers. The farm allotment bill, which already has passed the house, is expected to accomplish this for the farmer. 7. Rationalizing the inter-govern-mental debt settlements— perhaps by remitting interest items in total sums due—and by basing debtors i capacity to pay upon his ability to | transfer goods or money in relation to gold reserves and value. Also, rai tionalizing foreign trade arrange- | ments, such as tariffs, and perhaps seeking a vast new outlet for American raw' goods and manufactures in Russia. Two Factors Essential Dr. Tugwell, who departed for Washington today, is hopeful that j the foregoing plan will begin soon after March 4 to pump oxygen into ! the country’s prostrate commerce, j The President-elect is said to be ! prepared to sacrifice special interj ests whenever it is imperative to i provide for the greater good of the | whole population. Dr. Tugwell views two factors as indispensable to recovery. 1. Putting purchasing power into the hands of those who “ultimately | buy and use goods.” 2. Equilibrating the wholesale price index with the retail, more particularly by raising farm prices | so that large sections of the popuI lation again may enter into con- | suming pow'er. "What might have saved the situation earlier and what, is necessary to be done now,” said Dr. | Tugwell, “is in direct contract w-ith j all that has been done. Need Buying Power “The energy and ingenuity which has been expended on our financial institutions ought to be turned toward the repairing of a nationally damaged purchasing power—not confidence, but actual power to buy. The. country's financial institutions | can b e salvaged only by enabling its citizens to buy goods. “In such a situation, there is just one thing to do: Take incomes from where they are and place them where we need them. Practically, this means extreme inI come taxation and distribution by | government to consumers w-ho will spend for goods, start the productive processes again, and gradually re- | store their owm earning power.” Dr. Tugwell's proposals for re- ; storing purchasing power rest on j the public and semi-public works ■ enterprises, on direct, outdoor relief on an adequate scale, and upon ; closing the gap between— for ex-ample-farm products and the prices j the farmer must pay for steelfabricated goods, freight carriage, and other commodities at retail’ land on reducing interests overhead drags on production.

Wants Higher Taxes He would finance the public works program by higher taxation and by borrowing. Dr. Tugwell opposes currency inflation. He pointed out that the amount of money in circulation had increased since 1929 from $4,800,000.000 to its present high mark of $5,700,000,000 without seemingly affecting the commodity price index. Bank credit, however, declined 1 during that period from $58,300,000,000 to $46,100,000,000. Intergovernmental debt settlements he expects to see rationalized, with revision downward. Repeal of the eighteenth amendment is essential, he holds, as a means of producing revenue and on ’•moral” grounds. But he doubts if repeal would produce more than one quarter of the stimulus to business which its advocates have asserted it would.
