STATE BOARD IS ! ASKED TD END BUDGET CLASH Accounts .Commission Is Urged to ‘lnterpret’ City Tax Requests. Aid of the state accounts board was sought by the state tax board today in “interpreting" the civil citybudget, folowing action of representatives of the Indiana Taxpayers’ Association in "walking out" on the hearing on the budget yesterday. The association representatives, Walter Horn and William Mince, refused to participate further in the conference, explaining there appeared to be no possible basis for agreement between the association and city officials, whom they charged refused to co-operate. Today, Harry Miesse, association director, reiterated his charge that the civil city budget means nothing and is “just a mess of figures.” 'Just Mess of Flgurees’ Mr. Fiesse contended the state tax board has the wrong attitude because it is not taking into proper consideration miscellaneous revenue provided by new legislation, including tax on bank deposits and bonds, excise and income tax. Evans Woollen Jr., city controller, and Walter Boetcher, works board president, denied charges of lack j of co-operation. “We gave you everything yoi | asked, and you thanked us when you left,” they told Mr. Horn and Mr. Mince. The association representatives conferred later in the day with the tax board on the school city rate, failing to reach an agreement. Fail to Agree Again They contend the civil city rate could be reduced, from $1.31 to $1.05 by allowing for more miscellaneous revenue than was estimated by city officials. The budget estimated receipts of $428,000 from such miscellaneous sources as beer, excise, building and loan taxes, the association representatives insisting that the figure should be $646,000. Included in the association's $646.000 figure is an item of about $125,000 beer and building and loan taxes this yaer, which was spent to avoid a deficit for the present year. The deficit would have had to be paid sometime, said Mr. Woollen, adding that there was little difference whether it was paid before or after Jan. 1. The association asked that the school city levy be cut from 99 cents to 83 cents, by making no allowance for tax delinquency. Later, Mr. Horn agreed to a 90 cents levy, allowing for a 7 per cent delinquency. WALKS SIX MILES TO RIGHT LIE: FINED SBS Motorist Unable to Sleep After Falsehood Concerning License, By l nit id Press PALMER, Mass., Nov. 15.—Joseph A.

NEWS OF MOTOR WORLD
CAR PROTECTION HINTS ARE GIVEN BY G.W.SHERIN Seven Suggestions to Combat Rigors of Winter Are Outlined. Stormy weather—freezing at night and thawing by day—that’s only part of the rough treatment an automobile will take every day this winter. A motor car needs special protection now if it is to come through the winter with its beauty unharmed, according to G. W. Sherin, automobile finishes authority of the Du Pont Company. An auto, Mr. Sherin points out, faces these rigorous tests after a summer when the sun has done its best to scorch the life from the finish and the top. These parts particularly need attention for the strenuous days ahead. He makes these seven suggestions for protecting the beauty of the car. Restore the brilliance of the finish by cleaning off the “traffic film" with a polish that cleans as well as polishes. If the finish is chalked badly, it may be necessary to use a pre-wax cleaner to clean off the dead pigment. Apply a coating of durable automobile w-ax. This will protect the finish and make it easy to keep clean in the months to come. Touch up rust spots before they grow larger. Clean out the radiator thoroughly before filling with anti-freeze. Look at the top. Is it starting to crack around the moldings? This is the danger line. Seal it now with top sealer. This product generally is available in a tube with a handy nozzle for applying in a thin ribbon. Finish the entire top with autotop finish. Be sure the finish you apply is not too thick. Thick top dressings often crack and add to the difficulty. Khaki sport tops need a coat of clear waterproof dressing. The last sugestion is that the work be done as soon as possible, so that even the first effects of winter weather may be discounted.
DODGE SALES RISEJNNATION Company Reports Reveals Increase Here and in Other States. The practically unprecented increase of Dodge retail sales is not confined to Marion county and the Indianapolis territory alone, but is nation-wide, as the following tabulation released for publication by A. van Der Zee, general sales manager of Dodge Brothers Corporation reveals.

1934 Studebaker Commander Ueei on Drive Through Brown County
~ ’*•
Shown above is the new 1934 Studebaker de luxe Commander sedan which was driven to Brown county Sunday. This car is on display with other 19 34 Studebaker models at the showroom of the Citizens Motor Company, local distributors, located at 1510 North Meridian street.
Fall Colors of Indiana Area Attract Scores of Motorists. BY STURGE WELLS Times Automobile Editor. Although somewhat late in the season to view the scenic beauties of Brown county state park at its best, a tour to this popular fall resort Sunday in one of Ted Byrne's and George Hardwick's (heads of the Citizens Motor Company at 1510 North Meridian street) new 1934 Studebaker de luxe Commander sedans still revealed many interesting sights. Long before this 3,822 acres of parkland became accessible to motor travel, the charm of the landscape attracted many artists who soon established a colony for themsolves. In fact, it is this same region which produced “Weed Patch Hill” and “Bear Wallow” of immortal “Abe Martin” fame. Colors Flame in Fall A lodge and cabins have been erected to commemorate the birthplace of this popular character originated by kin Hubbard, whose Brown county characters have won him national fame. The lodge is known as Abe Martin lodge, and is built of native stone and hewn timber, featuring a wide veranda and spacious lobby. Many of the cottages and cabins also bear the names of Hubbard characters. Natives of this section of Indiana will tell you that the time to see the conglomeration of foliage colors is the latter part of October. Even so, our trip over Route 37, through Martinsville and Bloomington, revealed enough of the fall atmosphere to make the trip well worth while. Taking Route 46 out of Bloomington there remains only a short distance to the entrance of the park, but it is this short drive via the state game preserve which furnishes the most colorful part of this drive. Bridge Is Landmark To properly enjoy and take in all of the scenic beauties of this park, it is necessary to spend considerable more time than we were able to, due to darkness coming on. For instance, aside from saddle horses and early period stage coaches to convey tourists through the park, there are parking areas'provided at intervals for motorists throughout the ten miles of driveways. These permit panoramic views of the many ranges of wooded hills. Then, too, there is an observation tower on the highest peak, where one can view at least a half dozen Indiana counties. However, the landmark of this quaint old Hoosier park is an old covered bridge recently tran-*'"anted

at the entrance. Although typical of things we think of as "Vanishing Americans,” this “old fellow” is well preserved, even though it is reputed to have served almost 100 years of active and useful service in its time, and is an appropriate memorial to Indiana’s vast forests and pioneer craftsmanship. We purposely chose Route 31, via Columbus and Franklin, on our return trip to try out the new Studebaker. This route differs in that it does not present quite as many winding hills, thus lending a con-
Huge Sales Increase Is Reported by Plymouth
General Sales Manager Is Optimistic Over Net Business Gain. Plymouth dealers in Marion county have good reasons for feeling proud of their sales showing this year. They have been “leadng the pack” so often in recent months, because their efforts unquestionably had need to do with boosting the national average for the year as reported. by H. G. Moock, general sales manager of the Plymouth Motor Corporation. “In 1932, Plymouth sales increased to where Plymouth cars represented 16.1 per cent of the total sales in this field, competition standing at 46 and 37 per cent. For the first six months of 1933, Plymouth deliveries were 99,578, or 21.6 per cent of the 461.945 cars sold in the low priced field in this period. “Figures for the third quarter of 1933 are even more impressive. In this period, Plymouth sold 93,459 cars, or 25.4 per cent of the total of 367,872 cars sold in the low-priced field. This means that in less than five years, Plymouth has progressed from the place where one car in every fifty low-priced cars bore the Plymouth trade mark to the point where one car in four is a Plymouth,” asserted Mr. Moock.

trast to compare the riding and driving qualities of the car. While differing in appearance from former Studebakers by its radical, yet modern, streamline body style, this year's model not only handles with greater ease, but rides more comfortably. Mr. Byrne and Mr. Hardwick will tell you that this is due to the lower type of body construction and more even distribution of weight, which enables the car to travel at higher cruising speeds virtually minus body sway, and with greater security of safety.
Burnett’s Back Veteran Auto Chief Heads Olds Organization.
jjj ><r
L. C. Burnett A PPOINTMENT of L. C. Bur--I** nett as manager of the reestablished Indianapolis branch of the Olds Motor Works is announced by B. E. Ralston, general manager of the Olds organization. Mr. Burnett is not only a veteran here, but also to General Motors, having spent about twen-ty-five years selling their products. He was associated with the Indianapolis branch for a period of approximately twelve years, including years before the war. Joining this office in 1915 as a representative of the Buick Motor Company, traveling throughout the state, he was promoted to assistant manager in 1923. He held this post until 1929, when he was appointed manager of the entire Indianapolis zone organization. During the early part of this year, Mr. Burnett left Indianapolis for a short while, so his return as head of the local Oldsmobile organization brings back a familiar figure to Indianapolis’ automobile field. The new zone will include practically the entire state. BUICK SALES MORE THAN 41,000 IN 1933 October Registration Figures Show Big Gain.

Plans for the elevation of the Belt raiircad tracks on the south side were complicated further at a meeting of city, county and railroad officials and civic leaders yesterday.
