TAXPAYERS GIVE WARNING STATE COSTS MAY RISE

Legislative Halls Full of SelfSeeking Lobbyists, Bulletin Says. | —— A warning that the Indiana Legis-

lature “may be persuaded to ap-|

prove bills that will bring about |

enormous increases in the cost of | government,” has been issued by the | Indiana Taxpayers Association. “Legislative halls are crowded with | persons who seek something for | themselves,” the association's bulletin stated. “Public officials are organized and demanding not only increased | salaries but additional fees for work they now perform as part of their | regular service. |

“Men with something to sell local governmental units are attempting to push througn legislation that | would mark the beginning of an-

other spending orgy,” the bulletin | charged. Of 726 hills that have been introduced, the bulletin stated that 270 would affect taxes and 136 of them would either increase taxes ox living costs. “If these measures become law,” the bulletin stated, "nearly $17.000,000 in the general fund would be wiped out during the next fiscal year.” The association urged taxpavers to telegraph or write their legislators and plead for a halt in the movement that “threatens to plunge the State into the new high level of spending.”

COURT REFORM

Resolution Opposing Plan Is

Adopted After Lengthy Debate.

The Irvington Republican Club today was on record as opposed to Supreme Court changes as recommended by President Roosevelt. The club, after lengthy debate last night, adopted a resolution opposing the plan. Drafted by Pliny H. Wolfard and Edward Hecker Sr., the resolution said that “the effect of the proposed

changes would be to destroy that | balance which Americans generally | believe to be necessary to the main- |

tenance of our institutions and our liberties.”

Henley Also Speaks

“Demand for changes in the Constitution or our form of government,” it read, “should come out of the people following careful consideration and
