RATS B FOR HELP FROM SENATOR BORAH

Urged to Withdraw :

as Aid to Idahoan’s Re-election.

BY THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer

ASHINGTON, July 1.—Demo‘cratic leaders are seeking to grease

election as a gesture to win the

Idahoan’s support, either tacit or | open, for President Roosevelt. ~ They are bringing pressure on 1 1asho's Democratic ‘Governor, the w . gangling cowboy Ben Rass, to drop ~ his candidacy against the Senator " and clear the way for a Democratic indorsement of the latter, it was learned today. ~ Borah' is to leave tonight on a pilgrimage to Idaho. There among his own people, who see more of * him in election years than usually, © he formally will announce in a few , days his candidacy for another "term. Despite the mystery he has . thrown about his intentions, he has * decide to run. He must announce : - for the August primaries, under the , law, by July 11. He will iain without telling his © Intentions as to the national cam- ~ paign. Emissaries of Mr. Roosevelt are pleading with the Senator to come over to the New Deal, and emissaries of Alf M. Landon are equally active to line him up with - the Kansas Governor.

Feels Importance Again

~ He is basking again in an aura . of mystery and importance. Gov. Ross, who constitutes an obstacle to Mr. Borah’s return to the Senate—though how serious no one . is sure—is conceded to be a vote- ~~ getter. He has not been entirely 4 sympathetic with all New Deal ob- . Jectives. Right now his lieutenants are seeking to line up Townsendites in Idaho for him, and. the Governor is counting upon this vote in his fight to unseat the veteran Senator, turned 71 yesterday. |

Ross Is Optimistic

_ Though the Governor has won by ‘diminishing majorities in Idaho, «he's a fellow who believes in his . star of destiny. Occasionally, to re‘new his faith, he consults a fortune teller in Pocatello. To entrench ~ himself practically, he plays heavily to the farmers who make up a large part of Idaho's vote. Removal of Ross from the picture would erase the strain on Borah, but & the Senator will do nothing himself to bring it about. He making no ‘deals. To help the campaign in the | West, Democratic leaders would like to have Borah join Senators Norris, La Follette and Jehnson in their insurgency.

. Borah Likes New Deal

They feel that the Idahoan, though he dislikes some New Deal tendencies, is generally sympathetic with the President’s objectives. He voted for many New Deal measures. They know he was disgruntled by Gov. Landon’s telegram suggesting an eventual return | to the gold standard. They believe he liked the “New Deal platform better. The plat«form drafters kept the Senator in

‘mind when they wrote it. hg forget the national cam-

¥ -

pa r the next few weeks. His talk 11 descend to problems of Idaho—wheat and potatoes and truck farming, silver and lumber— .88 he moves about among his people. And he may stick to Idaho throughout the campaign. That's a ‘course many predict for him.

APPROVED BY BUDGET GROUP

Authorized for Two Institutions. .

Reports of the state budget committee, including approval of improvements in two state institutions, today are to go the state auditor's office where funds are to be allocated to meet costs of proposals. The committee met yesterday. Improvements in the Logansport State Hospital and the State School for Feeble Minded Youth at Fort Wayne were approved by the committee. Officials of the two institutions were authorized to apply for Federal grants of 45 per cent of the cost of improvements, which are to be carried out as WPA projects. At Logansport, $122,900 is to be spent for construction of a new power house and the installation of boilers.

Colony to Be Relocated

Proposed work at Fort Wayne calls for $250,000 for construction of two dormitories and a power plant as part of plan to relocate a colony operated in connection with the school. The colony now is at Muscatatuck, but officials plan to locate the entire organization at Fort Wayne. The state entered the 1936-37 fiscal year, which started at midnight last night, with a {reasury balance estimated to be between $10,000,000 and $10,800,000. The state’s exact financial condition can not be determined because some counties bave not completed their tax settlements, according to Laurence hi Sullivan, state auditor. When the state begins disbursements soon under the new social security program, the treasury balance will decrease rapidly, officials said. The state started disbursement of $502,726 as reimbursements to 82 counties for their expenditures under the former old-age pension law, now superseded by the social security program. Claims of 10 other counties are not yet on file.

Prison Unit Considered

Construction of a new receiving unit at the Indiana State Prison to replace one that burned in 1934 was considered by the budget committee, but no action was taken because only $40,000, not enough to build the unit, had been alloted to the prison for this purpose. No PWA funds are available for prison construction, Edward P. Brennan, budget clerk, explained. The prison was the only state department which required money to be advanced from the new fiscal year appropriation, Mr. Brennan said. Two advances, $25,000 in April and $29,700 in May, were made, the budget clerk stated. Crop failures and increased food costs at .the prison were reasons given for 'increased expenditures.

Used Car "Market Essential to Auto Industry, Cowl-_

pression depends on the foundations we are building and nobody knows the result.” With these observations, a man as forthright as a section boss and with the insight of 22 years in the automotive industry today visited Indianapolis. He was W, C. Cowling, general manager and director of sales for the Ford Motor Co. He was the guest at a luncheon

given by 300 Ford dealers in the |

Claypool. He was to leave this afternoon for Detroit. In an interview before the luncheon Mr. Cowling refused to discuss the possible effects on business of a 1937 Democratic or Republican Administration. He declared any changes in car models would be gradual and said that the fall showing of new models apparently would be continued this year. Speaks of Bonus Full pa: of the bonus money has not been felt by business, he said.

“The veterans who didn’t borrow Co.

on their bonds are Keeping them as nest-eggs and the fellow who borrowed up to 50 and 60 per cent is using the money for necessities. I believe husiness will feel the bonus gradually. The bonus money has been a promise to business and no one knows the extent to which it will be felt,” he said. He declared the used car market is necessary to the automobile industry because it “serves the purpose of the man who buys a used car until he wants to trade his old car on a new one. He said the Ford company has had “wonderful results” with the plan of small down payments and low financing charges in the sale of new cars.

Thinks Accidents Are Fewer Mr. Cowling said he was confident that United States motor car accidents and fatalities were being reduced despite publicity. to the contrary. “You're not going to eliminate the “The fellow who speeds at 60 miles an hour and has an accident will have an accident when driving at 30 miles an hour.” Higher motor car prices were not seen in the immediate future. “Of course we don't know what may come,” he amended. Mr. Cowling revealed that the Ford company had spent $18,285,103 in Indiana for parts and materials. Forty-two state manufacturers sup-

‘ply the Ford company with various

articles. : Accompanied by Other Officials “It is a great satisfaction to us to be able to contribute so substantially to the prosperity of manufacturing cities of Indiana. It is a Ford maxim ‘it is not good business unless both buyer and seller profit,’” he said. Mr. Cowling was accompanied to

INCOMES FROM SALES TOU. S.

Indiana Gross Levy Held

Applicable in Ruling by Attorney.

Income received from sale to the Federal government after today will be taxable under the state gross income tax law, according to a reg-

ulation announced today by Clarence A. Jackson, division director. The new regulation, Mr. Jackson said,~is based on an opinion issued by Atty. Gen. Philip Lutz Jr. that such income is subject to tax because the tax is paid by the seller and does not become a burden on the Federal government and therefore its imposition does not violate the Constitution. Mr. Lutz's opinion cited the de-

cision of the Indjana Supreme Court |

in a case in which it was held the gross income tax is an excise upon the right or privilege of receiving gross income. The act provides that the tax is

taxing stitution of the United ‘States America.”

Following this decision, the dil sion requested the attorney geue opinion. Mr. Jackson pointed out that new regulation would apply only income received today after, excluding income tracts entered into before July and will not affect gross income returns now due covering income ceived during the second quarter 1936. July 15 is final date for filing returns for the second quarter,
