railway czar PLAN FAVORED BY ROOSEVELT Proposal for Co-Ordinator Probably to Be Given Congress Next Week. Bu f nited Pre** WASHINGTON, April 28—Senate administration leaders today said that the emergency railroad bill, tentatively approved by the President, would create a rail tranportation co-ordination empowered for the period of a year to set aside anti-trust laws in an effort to reorganize the roads. The bill probably will be submitted to congress early next week, without substantial revision. It was drafted by members of the senate interstate commerce committee, co-operating with administration advisers. It would set up a federal co-ordinator of transportation appointed by the President, perhaps from the rallies of the interstate commerce commission. Under his administration, the nation s railroads would be divided into three groups, eastern, western and southern, each group supervised by a committee of five men picked by the railroads themselves. The co-ordinator, acting with the approval of Mr. Roosevelt, could release the roads from operation of the anti-trust laws and other state and federal statutes, including the interstate commerce commission act, for a one-year emergency period which the President could extend by decree.

ARGUE SALES, INCOME TAXES IN COURT TEST

Constitutionality of New Law Is at Stake in Friendly Suit. State arguments in favor of the constitutionality of the new Indiana gross sales and income tax law which goes into effect May 1- were heard today in superior court five by Judge Russell J. Ryan in a friendly suit brought by J. Harry Miles, president of the Indianapolis Real Estate Board, and Frank L. Moore, president of the Indiana Real Estate Board. “Tire law levies a tax not on gross income itself, but on the privilege of receiving such an income,” Fred Wiecking, deputy attorney-general, argued before Ryan, citing decisions on the Mississsippi sales tax law. which the supreme court has held constitutional. Wiecking took the view that the new law in no sense is a local law. and that the legislature has a right to classify tax subject matter. “The tax is not on business as business,” Wiecking declared, ‘‘but on the right to receive income.” The friendly action filed by the realty board heads points out that the Constitution forbids the passage of laws by states which impair contracts, that deprivation of property without due process of law is illegal and that citizens of one state are entitled to the same privileges as citizens of the several states. Arguments that the law is unconstitutional were scheduled to be presented this afternoon before Ryan by attorneys Martin Hugg, O. S. Boling and Linton A. Cox. The plaintiffs also seek a temporary injunction against enforcement. Three Cents is all that you need pay for Want Ads. Call RI. 5551.

day by Judge T. Joseph Sullivan, and prevented Rosen from selling beer. Both the Lake county prosecutor and the attorney-general's office represented the state in the arguments today on Rosen's injunction against Paul Fry. state excise director; the lake county sheriff and Calumet chief of police. Since that order did not affect Attorney-General Philip Lutz Jr., he dispatched two deputies, Herbert M. Spencer and Edward Baree, to Lake county Thursday. They, obtained the order stopping Rosen's sale of beer on a petition to the court. It was served by the coroner, who is authorized to act in case the sheriff is prevented. The state's injunction was on the ground that Rosen violated nuisance provisions of the beer law by selling without a license and paying the tax.
