5 INSTITUTIONS HALF MILLION
Budget Group Authorizes Funds; U. S. Matches Allocations.
¥ The State Budget Committee to- 2
day had authorized allocations totaling ‘more than $500,000 for the expansion ‘of five state institutions. According to Budget Director Edward P. Brennan, this money, for the most part, has been matched by
additional Federal appropriations to be used for remodeling and maintenance of buildings. In order: that Indiana could take full advantage of Public Works Administration allocations, the Committee ° granted ° Muscatatuck feeble-minded colony at Butlerville $154,000, the Central State Hospital in Indianapolis $169,950 and the Logansport State Hospital $202,290, he . said. “The Federal Government has made grants to these institutions totaling only 5 per cent less than the state allocations. A $30,000 State appropriation for remodeling the Boys’ School at Plainfield also received committee approval. This is not to be matched by Federal funds. The State Police Department received a $30,000 appropriation for maintenance’of barracks throughout Indiana. Ordinarily the State Police money, which is to be added to by a Works Progress Administration allocation, would have been granted during the next fiscal year beginning - July 1, 1938. The police appropriation was moved ahead, however, Mr. ‘Brennan said, because of the. fear that no WPA funds will be available after this year.
LEAGUE ADVOCATES COLISEUM BOARD
Abolition of Present Setup Is Urged.
The Construction League of Indianapolis today was on record advocating creation of a City Coliseum Board to. plan construction of a municipal auditorium here. The league sent a letter to Mayor Boetcher urging that the present City-County Coliseum Board be dissolved and a City board substituted. The letter said: “In our opinion it has been demonstrated that the present County Coliseum Board having taxing power over the entire county never will be able to construct a coliseum: Opposition to its authority in areas outside Indianapolis and the general refusal of all real estate to be bonded for indebtedness at this time is overwhelming. As long As this board is in existence, it is apparent to us that a coliseum will not “be built in Indianapolis.”

1,000,000 DRIVERS LICENSED BY STATE
NeWw Act Requiring Test Held Spur to Applications.
A total of 1,014,581 motorists secured 1937 Indiana drivers’ licenses up to Sept. 1, Frank Finney State Liaense Commissioner, reported toay. This is the largest number issued during the corresponding period of any other year since 1930, when the licenses were originated. One reason for the increase, it was said, is that a new State act will require all drivers’ license applicants in 1938 to take an examination unless they can show a:1937 card. Up to Sept. 1, 983,635 motor vehicle license. plates had been sold, an increase of 62,000 over the same period in 1936. New car titles numbered 142,227, almost 15,000 moth than a year ago, Mr. Finney said.
DAHL’S WIFE TURNS SPY TO SAVE HIM
CANNES, France, Sept. 10 (U. P.). —Mrs. Harold Dahl, Blond American orchestra leader, revealed today how she had desperately undertaken to become an amateur spy in exchange for the life of her aviator husband, Harold Dahl, former Indianapolis. student, sentenced to death by the Spanish insurgents. “I failed at it,” she said ruefully. However, she waited hopefully today for word that Gen. Francisco Franco, insurgent leader, had spared her husband's life. Everything else having failed, she appealed directly to’ the general for mercy, enclosing her photograph. She has not yet been informed that her husband is to be exchanged for some captured relic flier, but has received intimations that Franco will be lenient.
