_ Chicagoan in Protest.
“Oppressive taxation is demoralizing business,” Russell G. Creviston,
Chicago, an official of the Crane |
Co., said in an address here. He spoke last night at a meeting of the Construction League of Indianapolis at Hotel Lincoln. Coincidentally, the Chamber of Commerce issued another bulletin urging a continuance of the fight against the proposed Federal tax on undivided profits of “closely held” or family corporations. Mr. Creviston, formerly of Indianapolis, said that “the only real factor against a revival of the con-

tion.” At the meeting, attended by about 20 men identified with the construction industry, Mayor Boet-
b- | cher predicted - that Indianapolis
will be a city of a half million population in 1963.

Crippled WPA Workers Make Artificial Legs for State's Needy
At 1220 Drover St., 11 physically handicapped persons are shaping artificial limbs for hundreds of others, similarly afflicted.
They are working on what is
said to be the only WPA project
of its kind in the country. Nine of the 11 have either one or two artificial legs. The others are handicapped in some other way. Their task is to supply artificial legs for indigent persons throughout the state. A recent WPA survey showed & need for several thousand of them. The workers, just two years ago, were unemployed and their handicaps prevented their obtaining employment. Most of them had no experience in artificial leg making,
Make Own Tools
They made and set up most of the unusual tools required for their work. Experts who have examined
the finished products said some of |
the legs equaled in quality ones costing as much as $150. WPA officials said many relief clients ‘who received legs made on the original project now are engaged either in private or public employment. One client went to work on a public golf course immediately after receiving his leg. The workers turn out legs at the rate of 10 a month, 362 having been made since the project began. Their goal is 400 by June, when the project is scheduled to be discontinued. About 80 hours are required to construct one leg. To obtain one, a client first must be recommended by a township trustee, after which the case must be investigated and approved by a visitor of the Governor’s Commission on Unemployment Relief.
Twofold Purpose
A plastic wood impression, from
which the legs are designed, requires nearly one and one-half hours to make. Final fitting and adjustment requires from one two days. WPA officials say the project has a twofold purpose: First, to provide employment for certified WPA workers who are skilled or easily trained in this type of work, and are not physically able to perform more strenuous duties., Second, to make possible the supplying of artificial legs to needy relief clients who otherwise would be unable to obtain such appliances, but if so equipped would be employable.
HOHLT MAY REQUEST CHANGE OF VENUE

Ralston, County Clerk, following a complaint by citizens that a bond provided by Mr. Hohlt rec®ntly was insufficient to cover $75,000 liability. Judge Cox previously had relieved an Eastern surety company of liability on a $75,000 bond.

GOVERNOR CONFERS ON FOOD LAW PLAN
Branding Act Enforcement Urged for State.
Governor Townsend was to confer today with Dr. Verne K. Harvey, Indiana Health Director, on plans to enforce a 1935 act requiring Indiana fruit and vegetable growers to place proper brands on their products. Pointing out the Legislature failed to provide funds for enforcement at the time it passed the act, the Governor said the State probably would
have to hire one or two trained |g¢
men to check markets for law violations. “I like the law,” he said, “because it protects both consumers and
growers. Proper enforcement may |
increase sale of Indiana grown products since the public will know
that carton and container labels tell
what the actual quality is.”
