A : Bill Would Aid Bus Drivers
The bill to exempt bus drivers from an eight-hour day law when operated exclusively in cities or nearby towns passed the House, 91 to 0, and was sent to the Senate. Under the present law, bus drivers must wait a specified period between assignments, regardless of how long they have been on the job. Proponents of the measure explained that because of this statute bus drivers on split tricks were actually forced to wait 12 to 14 hours in order to be paid for an eighthour day. > By a 91-to-1 vote the House passed its bill to amend the mu-

today was the bill requiring that syphilis tests be made in cases of pregnancy. This House bill, which does not carry a penalty clause, received final Senate approval yesterday. ; . Warns Against Killing Bill In the debate over the proposed extension of the primary election, Rep. Winfield K. Denton (D. Evansville), the bill's author, said: “If you indefinitely postpone this bill you will kill the subject matter for this session, and I know you don’t want to do that.” “This is a beautiful theory, but it won’t work,” Rep. C. Y. Foster (R. Carmel) said. “The people now do not exercise the right of primary. “Under this bill a poor man wouldn't have a Chinaman’s chance to pay the expenses of campaigning for the nomination for one of these two offices. The greatest Governor this State ever had was nominated ky the delegate system.” Under this bill a candidate in either one of these offices would have to secure a majority of all votes cast in the primary to secure the nomination. If a large group of candidates were inthe field and none of them received a majority the nomination would be made as it is now, by State convention. Pointing out that labor . groups and the Farm Bureau were for the extension of the direct primary, Rep. Bert B. Mayhille (R. Delphi) said, in| support of the minority report, that the Republican side ‘was not bound to vote one way or another on this bill. extension of the primary. “I am against party leaders meeting in sorhe smoke-filled room and handpicking a candidate,” Rep. Homer E. Beasley (R. Washington) said.
Sights Danger in Plan
The danger of some candidate securing the nomination by making various groups, if the primary was extended, was cited by Rep. Gideon W. Blain (D. Indianapolis). From the tone of the debate, it was apparent that members of both parties were not being instructed cn how to vote on this measure, an unusual procedure on a bill of this importance. “If this bill was written so that the man who received the most votes received the nomination there might be some sense in it,” Rep. Herbert H. Evans (R. New Castle), majority floor leader, said. “If this primary is made to apply to these two offices there,will he 10 to 15 candidates for Governor and it will be impossible for any one of them to.receive a majority.” Agreeing with Rep. Evans’ con-
tention, Rep. Edward H. Stein /D, 1

Kokomo) to request Governor Townsend to furnish the House with a list of the passenger automobiles used by State officials and the amount of gasoline and oil expended to operate these vehicles, The resolution claimed that these automobiles were being used for private business although they were financed with State money, When Rep. Fawsett said that “this was not a party measure” he was greeted by jeers from the minority side. Rep. Stein said that the State Budget Committee was checking into this matter to correct any abuses that may exist. The resolution was made a special order of business for 11 a, m. Thursday. On a 93-to-0 vote the House passed and sent to the Senate a Bill to empower the Union County Council to appropriate $1,054.05 to reimburse Foster Osborn, a former circuit court clerk, who paid out this amount to make up a shortage in public funds when a bank containing county money failed.
