GROUPS INVITED TOSTATEHOUSE STUDYMARGH 11
Special Commission Named To Present Data to 1939 Legislature.
Employers, employees and insurance company representatives today were invited to attend a public hearing at the State House March 41 and testify on the advisability of placing the State in the industrial insurance business. A special commission established by a 1937 act to study this question is to conduct the hearing called for 7 p. m. in the House of Representatives chamber. At the com“pletion of its survey, this commission is to submit recommendations to the 1939 Legislature. At an organization meeting yesterday, State Senator Charles Bidwell, Sullivan, was named” permanent commission chairman, and Earl Heffner, Gary, Industrial Board member, was chosen secre-
Other commission members are Miss Bess Robbins, Indianapolis attorney; Cdrl Mullen, Hammond, State Federation of Labor president, and A. H. Myers, Indianapolis, Indiana Farmers Mutual Insurance ~ Co. president.
Two Methods Cited
Indiana workers are protected in either of two ways under the present private industrial insurance system. Employers now can insure themselves against losses resulting from industrial accidents by taking out policies from private companies. If they can prove themselves financially able to pay workers’ _ claims, employers also are allowed to stand the risks themselves. Under a State industrial insur- ~ ance system, Mr. Heffner said, employers would pay the State for insurance protection. There are two other possible variations. Some states, in addition to being in the insurance business, also allow employers to stand the risk themselves, provided they pay the Government a small fee to help ad- " minister the act. An industrial insurance system combining features of those previously mentioned also could be established, Mr. Heffner said.

F. D. R. SECLUDED; ADMIRAL IS NAMED
HYDE PARK, N. Y.,, Feb. 19 (U. P.) —President Roosevelt enjoyed the seclusion of his country, estate on the Hudson River today, where he arrived last night a few hours after appointing Rear Admiral Emory S. Land, a cousin of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, Maritime Commission chairman. Admiral Land, already a Commission member, will succeed Joseph P. Kennedy, who resigned to become U. S. Ambassador.to Great Britain.

HIO'S WORD ON BEER AWAITED
Negotiation of Settlement on $1500 License Fee Held Possible.
Hoping a settlement can be reached in the Ohio-Indiana beer dispute, the State Alcoholic Bever-
ages Commission today awaited official notification that Ohio authorities were seeking an adjustment. Reports from Columbus, O., stated
recently placed $1500 annual license fee on distributors handling Indiana beer, was willing to try to negotiate a settlement. Ohio and Michigan authorities have placed bans on Indiana beer on the grounds the “port-of-entry” system here discriminates against their beer. Michigan has passed an outright embargo, while the Ohio action will “dry up” Indiana wholesale outlets in that state, it was said. In retaliation, Indiana also has placed a ban on Michigan alcoholic products. Dispatches quote Chairman Frank Miller of the Ohio Tax Commission, as saying: “I think our brewers could come in and ask that Ohio’s tax be taken off if Indiana eliminates’ its fees. We would want to know that Ohio manufacturers are satisfied, howev-
er, before taking any action.”

means of ending monopoly and preventing price-fixing. Analysis shows that industries
which cut their prices most deeply
in 1929-33 kept up their volume of production relatively well. ‘Those which reduced their prices the least had the greatest loss in output. For instance: Leather prices dropped about 50 per cent, production only about 20 per cent. Textile prices fell 45 per cent, production 30 percent. Iron and steel cut prices only about 20 per cent, and had an 80 of 85 per cent drop in output. Cement production, where the price was lowered only 15 or 20 per cent, went down by 65 per cent.
Agriculture Is Exception
The case of agriculture, as the President suggests, is exceptional. After all, people do keep on eating, even if somewhat less. The average farmer must keep on producing even if lower prices and smaller markets give him a headache in-
stead of a profit. From 1929 to 1933
the price level of agricultural products fell 60 or 65 per cent, but agricultural production declined only about 5 per cent.
These contrasts in price adjustments were due not only to monopolistic control. One factor was the way in which large-scale industry has made supply and demand inoperative in certain fields. Gardiner C. Means, one of the New Deal economists, his “Industrial Prices and Their Relative Inflexibility” (1935), thus compares the prices of hogs and automobiles: “The farmer sends his hogs to town in the early morning. The price he gets depends upon market conditions—how many other farm-| ers have sent in hogs and how many people are there to buy. The prices are the result of a bargain struck under these conditions. ;
“In the offices of General Motors, the managers decide on the price.
‘They do not know how many
Chevrolets they are going to sell, but they do know at what price they will be sold.”
Timing Is Issue
© Of course, many businessmen also recognize ‘that higher prices mean fewer sales. President Sloan, of General Motors, in predicting higher automobile prices in 1938, admitted they would allow fewer cars to be sold. At the same time he insisted that, because of higher costs “of materials and labor, the industry could not make a ‘Profit at the old prices. A second point of difference between the President and business on this matter of prices revolves around timing.

that Foreign Secretary Anthony ‘Eden, at odds with Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, might resign. Informed quarters, especially foreign diplothatic sources, revealed the rumor that a Cabinet split had occurred was definite, although there was no official confirmation. The general impression was that the differences between Mr. Chamberlain and Mr.” Eden would be solved by compromise. A few hours earlier, Premier Benito Mussolini had held a meeting of his Fascist Cabinet in Rome, Today was the first Saturday cabinet meeting in London since the feverish days of the constitutional crisis as the result of which Edward VIII gave up his throne. . Results of corfferences yesterday in which Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden and Dino Grandi, Italian Ambassador, took part have been communicated to the German Government, it was understood. It was largely on the basis of these conferences that the Cabinet meeting was called today. Sig. Grandi yesterday declined to discuss the Austrian situation and made it plain that any approach toward Anglo-Italian agreement must be accompanied by British recognition of the Italian conquest of Ethiopia, it, was reported. Andre Charles Corbin, French

In Rome there was no such atmosphere of compromise as was apparent in London. However, in some foreign diplomatic quarters it was insisted nevertheless that—despite any sign of compromise attitude—the Nazi action in Austria made agreement between Italy and Great Britain easier.

PRAGUE, Feb. 19 (U. P)— Fuehrer Adolf Hitler's speech to the German Reichstag tomorrow will be relayed over the radio in Czecho,slovakia, it was announced today. It will be the first time that Czech stations have accepted an invitation by German radio authorities to relay a Hitler speech.
Austria Expects Pledges From Hitler
(Copyright, 1938, by United Press)
VIENNA, Feb. 19.—Fuehrer Adolf Hitler in his speech to the Reichstag in Berlin tomorrow will emphasize that Germany fully recognizes Austria’s independence and territorial integrity, circles close to the Government understood today. Chancellor Hitler, these sources said, will pledge that Germany will abstain from interference in Austrian internal affairs. : Dr. Arthur von Seyss-Inquart, Nazi Interior Minister in the reorganized Cabinet, returned from Berlin today and was understood to have brought a copy of the speech, or at least that passage referring to Austria. : In that connection, he may announce that Germany will demand national autonomy for the German minority in Czechoslovakia, which demand the Czechs doubtless will reject because they believe it would be the beginning of the end of Czechoslovakia’s independent life.

WASRINGTON, Feb. 19 (U. P.). —General overtures from Hungary for an adjusted settlement of its post-war debt have been rejected in effect by the United States, it was learned today, but President Roosevelt has left .the door open for future debt discussions. It was understood that Congres-
sional leaders advised the President
against any moves toward adjusted debt settlement at present. The nature of the Hungarian proposal was not learned. Meanwhile Chairman Carl Vinson (D. Ga.), suggested today to the House Naval Affairs Committee that it earmark part of a $15,000,000 €xperimental appropriation in the 800 million dollar naval expansion bill for demonstration of a new method of aerial warfare. Louis W. Hilbert Jr., testifying for the Baltimore Peace Conference, told the committee that an “appreciable minority” of American youth will not bear arms under any circumstances. At the same time, the House Military Affairs Committee was embroiled today in a fight over excess war profits legislation - which threatened to prevent its passage at this jon of Congress.
WARNS OF TAX RISE FOR OIL BURNER USERS
Owners of homes having oil burners would pay $21 a year more taxes under a bill now pending in Congress, Leland K. Fishback, Ins diana Petroleum Industries’ Committee secretary, warned today. The bill, he said, would place sg tax of 1-cent a gallon on fuel oil used for generating heat or power. If adopted, he asserted, the tax would increase the price of fuel oil
to the home, building and industrial
user $170,000,000 a year. Little. more than 15 years old, the cil burner industry, consisting of 400 manufacturers and 15,000 dealers, would be hampered by the tax and like all: taxes it will grow. unless stopped, Mr. Fishback declared.

Mr. McNutt termed: Frank Mce Hale, new Indiana national coms mitteeman as “one of the best friends I have in thé world and it is very gratifying to hear of his selection. He had no comment when asked whether he would attempt to return Sentaor VanNuys to the “good graces” of the State Administration. He said he had not seen a copy of the Senator's letter appealing for an independent committee of 100,000 to support his re-election.

The former Govelnor said in his - speech tonight he would give his “view of the State Administration from a distance of 11,000 miles.” . He said one of the reasons for his return to this country now was : he wanted to get the report being - prepared by a joint committee of American and Philippine experts which includes representatives from the State, War and Agricultural Departments. Numerous friends attended the

Athletic Club, which smacked a bit cf a college homecoming. Commissioner McNutt said he une derstood his dues at the Press Club were paid but if they were not he “certainly would attend to that matter because he didp’t want to get into the dog house for that.” :

During the conference Postmaster Adolph Seidensticker appeared, said he wanted to give a little personal service and handed Mr. McNutt two - letters which were sent to him in care of the Indianapolis postoffice, Among those attending the conference were Senator Minton, Wayne Coy, his administrative assistant; Paul IL.

Dines With Townsends
Commissioner McNutt had breake fast today with Governor and Mrs." Townsend in the mansion he fore merly occupied. The occasion was of added importance, it was said, since Governor Townsend reportedly has a more attentive audience in some Washington circles than does Come missioner McNutt, who incurred the political enmity of Postmaster Gene: eral Farley at the 1932 Democratic national convention. Meanwhile, the Indiana Demo-
cratic Editorial Association prepared
to adopt a resolution today ine dorsing the former Governor for: the Presidential nomination. Such resolutions have been approved by the association at its last three meetings. Jack Dolan, Hartford City, is .to retire as association president. All other officers are to be advanced automatically with Dean L. Barne hart, Goshen, becoming president.
