OHIO MAY SET HEAVY FEE ON

ENTRY SYSTEM OPPOSED
State's Brewers Charge Discrimination and May | Ask Embargo.
As a protest against Indi: ana’s beer “port-of-entry”’ system, the Ohio Tax Commission today is considering a $1500 license fee increase for distributors handling Indiana beer in that state according to reports received here.
Michigan already has an embargo |
on Indiana beer and officials here -said a license fee increase in Ohio would have the effect of “driving | out Indiana beer.” Breweries claim there now is a balance of beer trade between the two states, each shipping about 60,~ 000 bakrels a year to the other,
Ohio Ban May Be Asked It is understood that. Indiana brewers “will be able to. stand an increase of $500 in Ohio distributor fees, but would lose business if the fees go any higher. Should the Ohio tax commission, which controls that state's liquor system, take final action on the proposed $1500 increase in distributors’ fees, the Indiana Brewers’ Association is expected to ask the Alcoholic Beverages Commission here to place a ban on Ohio alcoholic products, similar to the one in effect against Michigan. The Michigan ban on Indiana beer, and Indiana’s embargo against all Michigan alcoholic products go into effect March, 14. Michigan authdrities yesterday failed to attend an arbitration conference called by- Hugh A. Barnhart, State Excise director. Under Indiana law, a wholesaler pays a $1000 license fee. An additional fee of $1500. is. paid by an ims
Commission theory is that a $1500 fee should be added to Ohio distributors if they handle Indiana beer.’
Claim Discrimination
Indiana brewers claim such a ruling would discriminate “against them since an Ohio distributor cannot sell to another distributor. Once Ohio beer passes through the Indiana poris-of-entry, they said, it has approximately 150 wholesale outlets. Since Ohio distributors must wholesale what they import, the effect of the proposed ruling, aecording to authorities here, would be to shrink Indiana’s beer outlets in that state. Michigan’ ban has "been upheld by a three-judge Federal Court, but the Indiana Brewers’ Association has announced it will appeal this decision to the U. S. Supreme Coust.
Denies Plan to End Truck Pact With Michigan
Frank Finney, State Auto License Bureau Commissioner, today said he had no knowledge of any plan to break the reciprocal motor vehicle agreement with Michigan in retaliation against that state’s embargo on Indiana beer. Published reports said “some high Indiana officials” are considering breaking the motor -vehicle pact with Michigan. “I never- have been consulted about this matter,” Mr. Finney said. “The survey of truck traffic in both . sstates, which is spoken of in the article, was ordered in December before the beer question came up.” It was explained that if the agreement is broken, Michigan truckers could be arrested unless they display Indiana 'licenses and meet other requirements imposed on Indiana truckers. - Indiana truckers also could be penalized similarly in n
he agreement can be cancelled |
by! either state upon 60 days notice. Ma Finney explained that such a
llation would conflict with the policy of his department which is to extend these agreements to as many neighboring states as possible.

Two gunmen strolled into the Thom McAn Shoe Etore, 21 N. Illinois St., today, bound and robbed two employees and fled into the crowded street with loot totaling $26. They left each clerk 25 cents for lunch money. Ralph Smith, 1417 Herschell Ave, the manager, told officers he was in a stoe at the rear of the store when he heard the door open. Robert Hamilton, 5432 University Ave, assistant manager, was in the front of the store. Mr. Smith said he stepped into ihe salesroom and .was met by a red-haired man Waving a

“The second bandit went to the cash register while the red-haired one searched Hamilton and myself,” Mr. Smith said. “They took $10 from me and $1 from Hamilton. There was about $15 in the cash register. “The second bandit came back and said ‘0. k.’ and the fwo men started to leave. As they were going out, the red-haired man said: ‘Say, you fellows haven't any lunch money, have you?’ “I replied: ‘No, you took .all we had.’ “The red-head then said: ‘Oh, well, I guess we can spare you a quarter apiece. We don’t want you to-go hungry.’ He placed a quarter on the floor beside each of us.” — Smith explained that he maned to work a penknife out of his wl and cut the fishing twine with which he and Mr. Hamilton had been bound.

ANTILYNCHING
GLOTURE LOSES.
Second Senate Motion Fails; House Debating Relief Bill.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16 (U. P.)— The Senate today defeated a second attempt to break the Wagner-
VanNuys Anti-Lynching Bill flibuster by limitation of debate. Majority Leader Barkley (D. Ky.) said that the long battle over the measure might be expected to end— presumably in shelving the legislation—early next week. By defeating the new effort invoke the Senate's cloture rule and thus end the filibuster, foes of the antilynching bill virtually ended hope for a vote on the measure at this session. The vote for 42 for cloture and 46 against cloture. A two-thirds majority would have been required to limit debate. In the brief flurry of debate preceding the vote, Senator. Barkley charged:the Republicans with playing “cheap. politics” . in voting against cloture. Meanwhile the House was lining up more solidly behind the Administration’s $250,000,000 supplemental relief bill than on any other major measure since Congress convened. The bill, which will provide funds for 750,000 more WPA jobs than would be possible with the present dwindling $1,500,000,000 work-zrelies appropriation, comes up for four
hours debate shortly ‘after noon. A vote is expected before night.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.—Senator VanNuys today. launched a “direct-by-mail” campaign to retain his Senate seat through organization in Indiana of an “Independent Committee of - 100,000.” From his offices here he sent ‘out the first 100,000 circular Loe ters enclosing pledge cards to returned by those who ka be ‘join the movement. Drafted by a public relations expert, the letter head carries a picture of ‘Senator VanNuys and the following: “Independent. Committee of 100,000 for Re-election of Prederick VanNuys as U.'S. Senator from Indiana. Election: Tuesday, Nov. 8, 1938. Representing all the people of the State as United States Senator from Indiana.” Since the mailing list includes’ both Democrats and Republicans, it is indicated that the senior Senator intends to run independently if he fails to receive the Democratic nomination. But the closest the letter comes to stating this is in the second para-
“Certain persons in politics in Indiana have issued decrees calling for my elimination as a. candidate for Senator. I received my office from the people, and I will retire only if the people deny me the priviof re-election. No
ticians can dictate my retirement from Indiana public life without first submitting it to. the people themselves.” |
Governor: oven referring to Senator VanNuys’ announcement of his candi~dacy for re-election, today said: “I am not. surprised by the" tone of Senator VanNuys’ letter because it represents his general attitade of rugged individualism. He is apparently charging that some political organization is attempting to boss him, I should like to re- . mind the Senator. that the real bosses in Indiana are the’ people. I believe the Senator would be happier today if he had been more zealous in trying to follow the will of the majority of the people whom he was elected to represent.” . Attorney General Omer Stokes Jackson, Indiana Democratic chairman, and Frank McHale, National Democratic from Indiana, declined to comment on the announcement.

Disorders May ‘Mark Celebration; New Ties Predicted.
VIENNA, Feb. 16 (U. P.). —~Austrian authorities feared disorders tonight as officials prepared to swing open the gates of prison and concentration camps, freeing thou-
sands of Nazis under the de-|
cree of the new Nazi-tinged Cabinet.
The new Government left no doubt of its sympathetic Nazi in-|< tentions by voting an amnesty decree which awaited only the signature of President Wilhelm Miklas to mark the beginning of triumphant Nazi celebrations. With Nazis in the key posts, the Cabinet was only a few hours old
| when as its first action it adopted
the measure. Although Nazi flags are forbidden, observers did not doubt that triumphant Nazis would unfurl Swatstika banners when the amnesty takes effect, offering a threat to public order, Others May Return Home
It was anticipated that prison authorities will be instructed to effect releases in the early morning or late at night, freeing the prisoners singly. Additional hundreds comprising the “Austrian Legion” may cross the border from their exile in Germany, Where. they fled following the as#.0f Englebert Dollfuss, r, by Nazis in 1934. The Bn decree was the first mqve to the Cabinet which was pledged to the clasest co-operation with Nazi Germany. It was expected that bigger events were yet to come—the closest co-operation between Austria and. Germany in foreign snd economic affairs and, it was persistently reported, co-operation in other fields of more dramatic possibilities. It was understood that negotiations ‘were already under way between the Austrian National Bank and the German Reichsbank regarding Austrian, co-operation in the German aa plan of economic self-sufficiency; it was forecast that an Austrian-German customs union and Austria’s adhesion to the German-Japanese-Italian - (Turn to Page Three)

Suggesting that the anti-Com-munist agreement among Japan, Italy and Germany also may constityte a pro-Fascist pact, Rep. Scott said: :
