WALTER- LOGAN SUBSTITUTE DUE
Senate Judiciary Group Studies Administrative Procedure Plans.
By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.— Two bills, incorporating respectively the principal recommendations of the majority and minority reports of the Attorney General's committee on administrative procedure, have been drafted and will be taken up ‘by the Senate Judiciary Committee, it was announced today by Senator Frederick VanNuys (D. Ind.), new chairman. “From the reports made* by the committee headed by Dean Acheson,” Mr. VanNuys said, “Senator Carl Hatch (D. N. M.) and myself have drafted the two bills, one. expressing the majority and the other the minority viewpoint. “On Monday I shall present these bills and name a subcommittee for their study. The subcommittee will be headed by Senator Hatch, and it will report its recommendations back to the full committee for action. “Out of this will come some substitute for the Walter-Logan Bill to reform administraitve procedure which President Roosevelt vetoed last session.” Senator VanNuys said his committee did not intend to exercise any “snap judgment,” and that both viewpoints would be given a complete hearing.
BILL WOULD CHANGE ROAD FUND SYSTEM
A bil] which would provide for the redistribution of state gasoline taxes, giving Indianapolis $45,000 annually to maintain the 50 miles of state roads within the city limits, was introduced in the House today. The bill, signed by 54 representatives, would give counties and small towns approximately $4,000,000 more than they are now getting to maintain city streets, Rep. Elmer C. Weller (R. Dale), its author, said.

Inspector General's office.
“I venture the purely | personal opinion that tlie positiory of the property owners who have in good faith given options to the Government will not be disturbed,” he said, “The main objections which have arisen pertain to figuring the commission for the real estate agent and the charges for title work.”
