Perkins (Dem., South Bend), was the only member to take the floor against the bill, although seven voted in the negative. A parliamentary attempt to place the bill back on second reading, to offer an amendment, was made, but a motion to keep the bill on final passage brought the vote without further debate.

Up to People Bill Provides Repeal Delegates Must Tell Views in Advance.

HERE is the method to be followed in Indiana when voters express their views on repealing the prohibition amendment to the federal constitution if the bill introduced by Senator Jacob Weiss <Dem.. Indianapolis), is enacted into law: A special convention is to be called by the Governor. Delegates are to be nominated by petitions signed by not less than 500 voters. One delegate is to be elected from each of the ninety-two counties. One delegate is to be elected representing each 10,G'X) population. Each candidate for delegate must declare, in advance, whether he favors repeal. Weiss said today that he expects to have his measure hurried through the legislature because of the overwhelming repeal sentiment already shown on every test vote. .Twenty-four other senators joined Weiss as co-authors of the convention bill.

STATE TO ASK DEATH PENALTY Indianapolis Youth to Go on Trial April 25, for Werner Slaying. An attempt will be made by the state to send Stanley Parker, Indianapolis youth tc the electric chair on a charge of slaying Jack Werner, local pawnshop operator, Prosecutor Herbert E. Wilson announced today. This step by the prosecution was disclosed by Wilson following setting of April 25 as the date for Parker's trial in the Shelby circuit court at Shelbyville. Judge James A. Emmert set the trial date Tuesday. The case was taken to his court on a change of venue from Marion county.

SWIFT REPEAL UPJTO SOUTH Ratification Depends Mostly on Democrats’ Keeping of Platform Pledges. (Continued from Page One) they have had the "Indian sign” on the legislatures. And the only power greater than the dry power, in these southern commonwealths, is the power of the Democratic party. There would be no doubt of the outcome in any of the southern states if the Democratic leaders of that section would make resubmission a party issue. Yet such an aggressive stand hardly can be expected unless the President-elect takes the lead.

Governors are Nevada, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, California, Michigan, North Dakota and Pennsylvania. Early ratification of the proposed “twenty-first amendment” is expected in five of these—Nevada, California, Delaware, North Dakota and Pennsylvania. Only Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire are regarded as in the doubtful column. The five Republican-controlled states, plus Oregon and Minnesota, which generally are regarded as wet, would reduce to twenty-nine the number of states the Democrats would be required to deliver into the ratification column. The Democrats may not make the grade unless they bring into the fold a good many southern states. Mopes for Beer Action By Scripps-Hoicartl Xeicspupcr Alliance WASHINGTON.

M'NUTT ASKS MANSION COT Advises Committee to Slice S2,OGQ Off Cost of Upkeep. Governor Paul V. McNutt today sent letters to the LieutenantGovernor and Speaker of the house asking that they instruct the conference committee on the state budget bill to reduce the SIO,OOO item for executive mansion maintenance to SB,OOO. “In keeping with the policy of retrenchment, I suggest that this reduction be made,” the Governor’s letter read. The SIO,OOO annual maintenance was inserted by the state budget committee, following the custom established under the regime of former Governor Harry G. Leslie, it was pointed out. It received approval in both the senate and the house when the budget bill was being considered, although a Republican effort was made to reduce it by amending the bill.

500 MEN WILL GET JOBS ON R. F. C^PROJECT Bloomington Soon to Start Construction of Big Sewage Plant. Employment for 500 men now In the ranks of the jobless in Bloomington will be provided soon as ree suit of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation granting the city a 5428.000 loan for construction of a sewage treatment plant. The Bloomington project is being watched closely by Indianapolis officials with the hope of providing similar unemployment relief through work financed by R. F. C. loans. Giving employment to 500 men at Bloomington for ten months or more will mean a 40 per cent reduction in the city's estimated 1,100 jobless, it was announced here by the Indiana committee for trade recovery, 1456 Consolidated building. 30 Hours a Week Set Under plans and specifications prepared by Charles H. Hurd, Indianapolis consulting engineer, efforts will be made to provide employment for the greatest number of Bloomington men possibles. The R. F. C. loan contract specifies that no employe on any R. F. C.-financed project may work more than thirty hours each week. Accordingly. employes will work only three days each week, permitting the hiring of two shifts and doubling the number of men benefited and taken from the relief basket list. The Bloomington project has been referred to by R. F, C. officials as the pioneer in self-liquidating sewage treatment plants of any size. Repayment oi the R. F. C. loan is to be made in twenty years with 5 per cent interest through a service charge to consumers of 25 cents a month for up to 2,000 gallons of water used each month. Larger water users will pay a proportionately higher sewage service fpe. In addition to employing 500 men ! directly on the project, the Bloomington plan will result in indirect employment for many more men, as about 65,000 tons of stone from Bloomington quarries will be used in construction of the plant. First Victory in Campaign The Bloomington project marks first step toward success of the campaign of Governor Paul V. McNutt and others to furnish unem- | ployment relief through wages rather than charity payments. Granting of the Bloomington loan by the R. F. C. paves the way for handling the sewage problems of other cities on a rental basis. This places sewage disposal on a basis similar to water and electric power plants and will relieve real estate of some of its tax burden. Indianapolis officials are reported to be contemplating several permanent improvements here which would be financed by R. F. C. funds in an effort to relieve ranks of the ! jobless. Included among these projects is | completion of the Indianapolis sew- | age disposal plant, which has been delayed several years. The city is unable to sell bonds at I present for the work because of S provisions of the $1.50 maximum | levy law and the reduced assessed | valuation. It is estimated it would require nearly $500,000 to complete the local plant, which now is 80 per cent completed.
