$2,500,900 LAND PURCHASE IS RUSHED FOR HUGE FOREST TRACT IN SOUTHERN INDIANA State Enabling Act Linking Federal Action Up for Third Reading in Senate; U. S. Appropriation Ready. The first move in a far-seeing program to reforest hundreds of thousands of acres of virtually worthless southern Indiana land, giving the state one of the largest forest tracts in the Nation, is well under way in the Indiana Assembly and in Congress. The submarginal land, between 300,000 and 500,000 acres in Brown, Jackson, Harrison, Floyd and Martin Counties, will cost approximately $2,500,000. , Federal appropriation for the expenditure already has been made and the action of the land acquisition committee today in Washington will be a formality. The bill enabling

Indiana to receive the land from the Government is up for third reading in the state Senate. The action is the first step in the long range program recently proposed to Gov. Paul V. McNutt and members of the Assembly by the State Planning Board calling for the ultimate acquisition of more than three million acres of worthless and submarginal land throughout the central southern part of the state. The entire tract will be reforested, bringing its worth from practically nothing to a value of several hundred dollars an acre within three dec'.-'cs, according to Virgil M. Simmo; , state conservation director. Lana will be purchased only from farmers willing to sell, Mr. Simmons said. Five Uses Suggested Five general uses for the forest area are suggested in the Planning Board report. They are: Game preserves, state parks, state and national forests, recreation areas and camps for underprivileged industrial workers. The report visualizes such areas in at least eleven counties, including Perry. Crawford, Harrison, Lawrence, Monroe, Brown, Jackson, Floyd, Martin, Orange and Washington, and recommends socialization of smaller portions of Morgan. Owens, Greene, Bartholomew and Dubois Counties. The board suggests that the land be acquired over a period of 25 to 50 years. No hardship would be worked on owners of the land as it is of little use for farming. Paradise for Hunters The report pictures Indiana as a paradise for hunters and fishermen when the program is complete. Bear, deer and wild turkey would be some of the attractions which it is hoped will provide sport for state hunters and draw thousands of sportsmen from other states. This should mean a tremendous annual income to Indiana, comparable to the present income from this source in states such as Michigan, Wisconsin, New York and Pennsylvania, where millions of dollars are spent annually by hunters and fishermen from other states. The problem of soil erosion, now recognized as one of the greatest factors in flood prevention, is strongly commented on in the report. Reforestation is the only method calculated to correct the evil and repair the damage which has reached dangerous proportions in the denuded hillsides of southern counties. The program would shift agriculture to northern Indiana counties, where the land is more suitable to cultivation.

Recreational Home Sites Establishment of recreational home sites in portions of the forest area is suggested by the report. Thousands of vacationers could be attracted to Indiana by this means, it is thought. "Many farmers probably would be willing to sell at once at a fair appraisal." the report says. “The vacated land could immediately be allowed to revert to nature or be placed under any other proposed plan of development. Farmers who did not care to sell out at once could be permitted to stay for the rest of their lives or until the family breaks up. "This program could be continued until all the land unsuitable for agricslture is acquired by the state or the Government or by both in co-operation." In considering what would happen to cities and towns in the area the board continues: Subsistence Farming Possible * Counties and other divisions, including all civil obligations, would continue as at present in both rural and urban districts.* A system for school consolidation should be devised to eliminate useless expense. "Farming should be carried out on good farm land owned by the state or Government only to such an extent as local needs for food may be supplied. No commodities should be exported from the lands not privately owned. Some counties in the area now export grain and others import it. "It is possible that subsistence farming will aecome practical for many families or it may be desirable to plan on ‘agricultural ullages’ similar to those in Europe. Such a centralization of workers has many advantages over the present system of scattered farm dwellings." INDORSEMENT IS DENIED Legion Head Denies Interest in Second District Election.

PRIMARY REPEAL IS OPPOSED IN HOOSE Local Option Measure to Be Offered. A local option primary election will be introduced in the House of Representatives by Republican leaders in an effort to forestall any attempt by the majority party to repeal the present primary law. Rep. Herbert H. Evans <R., Newcastle) said the proposed bill would apply only to county offices. It would provide that conventions would be held to nominate these officers unless 20 per cent of the voters of the county petitioned to have a direct primary. “This bill hasn’t any chance of passing," he said, “but it might head off any effort of party bosses to have the present direct primary law repealed.” Despite the fact that repeal of the primary is contained in the platforms of both parties, Republican and Democratic leaders feel that there is little or no chance that the existing law will be repealed.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

FRANKLIN MAN MURDERED BY YOUNGJJANDIT Aged Filling Station Owner Ruthlessly Shot Down by Gunman. BY lIEZE CLARK Times Staff Writer FRANKLIN. Ind., Jan. 21.—A bandit who shot and killed Thomas J. Shephard, 68, yesterday and escaped in a heavy Johnson County fog, was still at large today, 24 hours after the crime. The Shephard family told police that Mr. Shephard may have been shot because, hard of hearing, he probably did not hear the bandit's command to raise his hands. The shooting took place in Mr. Shephard's filling station, eight miles south of here. Mrs. Shephard and their grandson, Charles Kisky, 16, in the nearby Shephard home, heard the bandit’s car pull away from the station, but attached no significance to it. Six .25-caliber automatic pistol shells and the bullets they shot and a fleeting glimpse of the bandit caught by a motorist are the only clews. Although there was a considerable amount of money in Mr. Shephard’s pockets, none was removed. Police assumed the bandit was frightened away. Sheriff A. R. Mulkins found that two of the six bullets went into a counter in the station; two of them went into Mr. Shephard’s body, one in the abdomen and one near the heart, one went through a partition and one was lost. Young Kisky discovered his grandfather lying on the floor in great agony. Howard Maley and Miss Marion Ritchey, Columbus, Ind., *who were driving past the station at the time the killer emerged, said the bandit was young, wore dark gray clothing and a light gray felt hat.

Ware, 3835 Kenwood-av, church trustees, estimated the amount of money taken. Police said all doors apparently had been unlocked from within.

YEGGS BATTER SAFE, ESCAPE WITH SSOO Tear Gas Fails to Stop Burglars’ Raid. Holding as clews several wet towels, police today are searching for burglars who battered open a safe at the Refrigerating Equipment Corp., 931 N. Meridian-st, yesterday and escaped with SSOO despite the tear gas with which the safe was protected. Police believe the towels were used by the burglars to wipe their eyes as the gas took effect. Entrance was obtained by breaking glass in the door of an adjoining establishment. The yeggs then cut through a heavy screen which barred a stairway leading to the equipment office.

KNOCK OUT COLDS IN FIRST ROUND Give Colds No Chance to Wear You Down and Put You on Your Back!

Don’t dally with a cold! It may end seriously—in the form of flu or pneumonia. When a cold strikes, strike back with redoubled force. Depend on no mere makeshift remedies. A cold calls for a cold treatment, not a preparation good for all kinds of ailments. A cold also calls for internal treatment, for a cold is an internal infection. Make Grove’s Laxative Bromo Quinine your treatment and you have hit a cold a body blow. Bromo Quinine is effective because it is a cold made expressly for the treatment of colds and nothing else. It routs colds quickly because it is internal treatment, fourfold in effect. First, it opens the bowels, an

HEAVY INCREASE IN LIVING COSTS DUE BY JUNE 1

General Gain in Values Is Also Predicted by New-Dealers. By United Press WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. —The New Deal recovery chart forecasts substantial increase in the cost of living by June 1. President Roosevelt has told conferees that a rising scale of living costs will be accompanied during the first six months of this ye?r by a gei.eral increase in values which will lessen the difficulty of paying debts. The Administration is favorable to increased prices and plans ultimately to attempt price stabilization at some level so far undisclosed and probably undetermined. There is no official justification so far for assuming that Mr. Roosevelt's objective is stabilization at the 1926 pricj level. Official upward trend forecasts are conditioned on hope the United States Supreme Court will decide the Administration possessed constitutional authority when it abrogated I the gold clause in private and governmental securities. Expect Court’s Approval Democratic politicians generally predict a favorable court decision. | They base their judgment largely upon a famous remark: “Trade follows the flag and the Supreme Court follows the eleclun returns.” Further dollar devaluation does not figure in Administration expectations that living costs will increase in the next six months and perhaps for two or three years thereafter. The dollar is to remain at its present 59 cents gold value pending international discussion of currency stabilization. Increased employment, a greater volume of business turnover and the expenditure of Mr. Roosevelt’s $4,000,000,000 recovery and relief budget are expected by New Dealers to carry prices to a higher level without further cheapening of the dollar or recourse to printing press money. Highest Since 1931 The trend of living costs is indicated by Labor Department statistics* on wholesale prices. Latest figures for the new year reveal the highest level of wholesale commodity prices since January, 1931. The department uses the average of 1926 prices as an arbitrary index of 100. On that basis, the index for the week ended Jan. 12 was 78.6, a point off from the preceding week but seven points higher than the corresponding week of 1934. The index figures reflect prices generally, including food, textiles, fuel, metal, building materials and house furnishings. There has been a general upward movement of living costs since the spring of 1933. The National Industrial Conference Board estimated that living costs in 1934 were 7 per cent greater than in 1933. A rather more rapid advance this year is expected by some well informed persons. Increasing volume of retail and wholesale trade ranging from 10 to 25 per cent compared with the corresponding period of last year have been reported for the early days of the new year. There are forecasts that retailers are about to enjoy the best spring season since 1930. VOLUNTEERS IN SESSION Business Meetings Under Way in Regimental Conference.
