STATE DATA ON JANUARY RAINS

EXPLAIN FLOOD

Downpour Topped 21 Inches For Month in Some Communities.

The advance proof of the Weather Bureau's January weather summary shows pretty clearly in agate type the why and wherefore of the most disastrous flood in Indiana's history. There were rainfalls recorded as high as 21.39 inches for the month at some observation stations. Most

of the rain fell in the southern por- |

tion of the state. The central area had next heavy fall and the northern section least. Even the northern portion had a relatively heavy fall, however, the figures show. The central portion, although under the southern, had such records as 12.05 inches at Richmond, 15.55 inches at Hickory Hill, 1483 inches at Bloomington and 1297 at Shelbyville. Rains Began in North

The rains, the report indicated, began first in the northern part,

between Jan. 7 and 20 and 25. In the southern portion they occured between Jan. 7 and 10, 13 and 18, 20 and 25, and 30 and 31. The rainfall was general and thus over the drainage basins for all

rivers and streams in the State. The | first rains, experts said, soaked the |

ground and created a rapid runoff for the later rains.

One Day Without Rain There were only 11 days of the

month that there was not a fairly | general rain, only one day that no | rain was recorded at any observa- |

tion point.

Distillery Bill Lest

Another House resolution name an investigating committee to study Illinois Bell Telephone Co. activities in Indiana also was sent to the Senate on a 72 to 17 vote. A bill to prohibit distilleries from using the name of religious denominations or church organizations was defeated in the Senate, 24 to 22. It had been the subject of a caustic two-day debate. The House voted, 51 to 33. to advance the Pari-Mutuel Bill

said the measure would pay off the £100,000 yearly State Fair bond debt. The Administration-Farm Bloc agreement. reached by a 12-member joint caucus committee last night, would: 1. Provide that

Government, 30 per cent by the

State and 20 per cent by counties. |

2. Require the State to pay each

teacher $700 annually instead of the | | present $500.

3. Provide that counties and

| school units retain 90 per cent of

the $1,457,000 they now receive annually from the general intangibles tax. Promises Appropriation Action

This Administration-Farm Bloc compromise today resulted in the

910 general biennial appropriation bill would be considered by the committee tonight. This measure and the new Tax Limitation Bill

tomorrow. As soon as the appropriations bill

{is pushed closer to passage, the

second budget bill, to appropriate $14,000,000 to pay 1937-39 social security costs, is to be introduced in the House. Some observers today pointed out that large counties have a larger number of teachers in proportion to population than rural counties. Therefore, they said, large counties would receive the bulk of the increased teacher payments. This compromise, they added, might lower the Marion County tax rate next year 8 cents. Similar re-

The company, among other orders, is manufacturing bombing planes for the Army. Nine thousand shoe workers were on strike in Massachusetts and New Hampshire factories this morning. Negotiations were proceeding and a quick settlement of the strikers’ de= mands was anticipated. All three of these strikes were called by C. I. O. unions and, in the boat and airplane companies, employers and union leaders dise puted the number of workers the unions represented. The unions claimed a majority; the companies said the strikers were packed by small minorities.

Occupy Axle Plant

In Detroit, members of the United Automobile Workers occue pied the plants of the Timken Dee troit Axle Co., which supplies axles to Ford, General Motors and Chrysler, and the Woodall Manu« facturing Co. and the Avery Corp. both makers of automobile parts, The two latter plants were closed down. The Timken strike broke out when the night shift reported last night, and the company claimed the plant would continue Lo operate. The United Automobile Workers settled brief sit-down strikes in the plants of the H. & H.
