COUNTY, CITY IN LEGAL BATTLE Commissioners Open Fight to Keep Gas Funds for Road Work. The city and Marion County today began marshaling their opposing forces for a legal battle begun yesterday when the county commissioners, charging that county roads had deteriorated to the "mud stage” because of inadequate funds, filed suit in Circuit Court to enjoin state officials from distributing to the city gasoline tax funds received by the county. The commissioners asked that the section of the existing gasoline tax law, which allots one-half of all gas tax and license fee money received by Marion County to the city, be declared unconstitutional. James E. Deery, City Corporation Counsel, said that the city wou'd take steps to protect its right to share the gasoline tax funds. Defendants to the action are Gov. Paul V. McNutt, Laurence F. Sullivan, state auditor; Atty. Gen. Philip Lutz Jr., and State Treasurer Peter F. Hein. County Commissioners John W. Newhouse, Dow Vorhies and Ernest K. Marker charged that the county was forced to share half of the $234,000 allocated to the county with the city. The county is not permitted to levy a tax for road maintenance. Because of insufficient funds, the county highway department has been closed since approximate 1050 miles of soad in which $50,000,000 has been invested are in the process of deterioration, the commissioners claimed. Under terms of the existing law, none of the other 91 counties in Indiana is required to make any distribution to cities or towns within its boundaries.

WAGE INCREASE IS ACCEPTED BY PRINTERS^UNION Immediate 11 Per Cent Hike Assured for Times and Star Men. An immediate 11 per cent hourly wage increase effective until next March, when an additional 4 per cent rise will become effective, is provided under terms of a contract between Local No. 1, International Typographical Union and Indianapolis newspaper publishers, overwhelmingly adopted by union members last night. The contract now awaits the signatures of the publishers. Signing bv the publishers of The Indianapolis Times and the Indianapolis Star has been assured. A 37'.-hour, five-day week is established and the principle of arbitration is saved. Acceptance of the contract is the result of weeks of intensive negotiations during which the parties had great difficulty in agreeing on the questions of wages, a shorter working week and the principle of arbitration.

Baker, vice president of the International Typographical Union, was present and assisted. Last Friday, the Indianapolis News, having participated with the other publishers in offering a 5 per cent increase effective for six months 2'- per cent additional effective for three months and another 2' 2 per cent effective at the end of the year, withdrew from further negotiations after the proposal had been rejected by the union. The final agreement was negotiated by the union and the Indianapolis Star and The Indianapolis Times. The wage agreement provides an average increase of 13 per cent for the two-year contract period. It was reported that only four members of the Typographical Union voted against acceptance of the proposal. CLEVELAND DEAN TO SPEAK HERE TONIGHT Episcopal Rector to Preach at Lenten Service. The Rev.
