- Times Special . * MICHIGAN CITY, Ind,, Oct. 15.— ~ Lieut. Gov. M,. Clifford Townsend, i Democratic nominee for Goverrdor, § Pledged himself to “greater tax justice to the property owner, land "owner and wage earner” in a cam- ~ paign address here last night. ~~ “My Republican opponent may . turn on professional tears in plead- ~ ing the cause of the store keepers

“and the large income fellows if he

~ wants to,” Mr. Townsend said. 7 “I am looking at this tax proposi- _ tion in Indiana as one which affects - the whole people and in which that - kind of justice prevails that will not permit any one class of earners to : pay the giant's load of governmen- , tal costs. “It's the big income fellow, who " never paid his fair share of taxes ‘ before the gross income tax came into" existence, who is squawking now.

‘I Beg for Consistency’

~ “I beg of my opponent that he be congistent in his defense of the store owners and the big income . fellows, He can not declare at one moment that it is impossible for , the merchant to pass his tax along to consumers and in the same breath tell consumers that they are paying hidden taxes. _- “With ‘his threats of giving con“sumers; sales taxes and nuisance : taxes, he can not gracefully charge , that they are in an unfair situation “under the gross income tax law. - And with his threats of giving in“dustry a 14 per cent net income tax, ‘he can hardly be said to be a friend of industry and those em- - ployed by industry. . “I am ready to heed and to work ‘with those. who have workable «plan for making our present tax - laws more equitable for every one In Indiana. The remedy for any {ll is to cure the disease, not to ‘kill the patient.”

Gross Income Tax Termed Sales Levy

The gross income tax was termed a “hidden sales tax” by Walter J. Mercer, Republican nominee for the Legislature, at a meeting of the Grosg Income Repeal Club last night in the Claypool Hotel “If this law is repeaied every consumer can buy more for his purchasing dollar,” he said. “You pay high prices because of the many hidden gross. sales taxes, if those who handle. food pass it on to you. “If not, the merchant and others must pay it out of their small profits. First the farmer pays a gross sales tax, next the broker or jobber pays a gross sales tax, then the wholesaler and, finally, the retailer pays a sales tax.”

OWNER PARTS WITH | - WORLD-FLYING HAT

By United Press | NEW YORK, Oct. 15, —Albert E. Wickey of St. Louis, who was united yesterday with his world-flying hat, appeared today to have parted’ with it forever. A hat manufacturing company gave him two new hats for the 17-

year-old green fedora which he started around the world last May in St. Louis when he impulsively asked a transport pilot to give the

head piece “a good ride” to the far’

places Wickey himself could never see. The hat company will use the flying fedora in “advertising.

BY JOE COLLIER

* As of today, one month ahead of the twenty-sixth Indianapolis auto show, more space has been sold than was sold for last year. In anticipation of even more sales, the entire floor plan is being rearranged. “This was disclosed today by C. H. Wallerich, Indianapolis Auto Trades Association president, who said it could be explained in only two ways. Business is better and the depression is over for the auto industry, he said. The auto sales year of 1936 promises to be one of the best in history, he said; there seems to be

every indication that the general improvement in business will con-

Ai coincide with the New and Chicago shows. Thus, Indiana patrons will not have to wait until from four to six weeks after Eastern showings for their glimpse of the new models. Other officers and directors of the Association, one of the oldest of its kind in continuous existence in the United States, are Robert Johnson, vice president; Joseph Malarkey, treasurer; Harry Hammond, secretary; Mort Martin, C. O. Warnock, Al Jones, William Moyer and Jo-

where the show is to be held, bel . ated in striking colors and “in

keeping with the progress of the industry,” Mr. Wallerich said. The decorating contract has been let to Edgerton & Co. and plans now are for an array of vivid colors, done to simulate the streamlining that is the mark of modern automotive design, he said. Another new thing about auto row is that today the Trades Association, which since its: birth 25 years ago has had quarters at 238 N. Delaware-st, moved to new quarters at 938 N. Meridian-st. Mr. Wallerich said that when the offices were established on Dela-

FOUR FIRE TRUCKS
