ate and the Legisiative Reference Bureau that there were no copies

available. Rep. Frank O'Rourke (D. Hammond) pointed to the hundreds of school children in the galleries and pleaded with the majority to “spare them of having to go home with the idea that their representative government is not representative.”

In his speech before filing his protest, Rep. Dausman said “I don’t believe the people of Indiana intended for us to upset the State Government without knowing what we are doing. Personally, I don’t |} mind taking a political smack at

Gavernor Schricker. But, gentlemen, we can’t afford to take a political smack at the people.” Rep. Dausman’s statement, part: “In the Republican State platform, adopted in 1940, there was a pledge of decentralization of power which was not as clear as it could have been made, but which the people universally understood to mean a promise of destruction of a great many needless commissions and the return to the people of local selfgovernment. “There was much said by Republican orators in the campaign "about the iniquities of the 1933 McNutt Reorganization Act, and the promise was invariably made that the Republican Party, if returned to power, would put the scheme of government where the McNutt administration found it.

Clearly Understood

“Those -promises were clearly made and clearly understood by the people. . . . The people went to the polls and ele ted Republican majorities in both the Senate and the House and elected all the Republican State candidates with the exception of Governor. . This had not been expected by the Republican politicians. It had never occurred to them.that such a situation might arise . . and straightaway, they procecded to deny and destroy the \ all-conclusive presumption that the people intended Henry F. Schricker as Governor to have those powers which had been exercised by Governors before the enactment of the McNutt Reorganization Act and to administer under those powers the business affairs of the State. “The denial of this presumption is justified by no conceivable theory. It thwarts the expressed and recorded will of the people and is open only to condemnation. “The system which would be set up by the enactment of these several reorganization bills takes power form the Governor only to divide that power among the Governor and two other State officers and is in no sense a fulfillment of the Republican promise of decentralization.

“Born of Lust for Power”

“It may or may not be an im- © provement upon the scheme of government as it existed before passage of the McNutt Act, but it is such a novel and radical departure from any former State scheme of government that it should only be affected after submitting it to the people through the vehicle of a party platform and after approval by the people. “The proposed scheme is born for a lust of power, the same parent which sWed the McNutt Act, and its enactment ‘will lead to the same ultimate end—repudiation by the people. Had not a majority of pe voters in the State desired and

Laddie . .,

FT. ORD, Cal, Feb. 11 (U. P.). —Laddie, having been treated for

a nearly fatal case of loneliness by reunion with his master, Pvt. Everett Scott, drank mntilk and nipped at fleas today. Beside him were a dozen roses Miss Ruby Wilhoite of Indianapolis had ordered by telegraph with this message: “To Laddie, the best {friend Scott ever had.” Nevertheless, he had grieved for Pvt. Scott of Chanute, Kas., for four months and he is an old dog, and Lieut. Col. Raymond Lovell, Ft. Ord veterinarian, said that he was not out of danger. Col. Lovell spent the night beside Laddie at the Presidio of Monterey Veterinary Hospital. He said that the reunion with Mr.

intended that. Henry F. Schricker have the powers of Governor, Glenn Hillis of Kokomo would now be their Governor and had Mr. Hillis been elected, the proposed changes would never have entered the mind of a single Republican. . . “When those bills reach the Court for construction the Court may take a contrary view, not - from ‘political motives, but from an honest difference in opinjon. . . . Should the Court hoid them to be unconstitutional, then the State would find itself in a position strange indeed, for it must be remembered that the passage of these several bills was preceded by a simple act repealing the McNutt Reorganization Act.

‘But One Effect’

That repealing act can ‘not be misconstrued. It has but a single effect, the destruction of all laws

guiding and governing the executive and administrative officers of the State and in the event the Court invalidates the organization acts, Henry F. Schricker would not only be a Governor, he would be a king, for in him and in him alone would the Constitution invest all executive powers. . . . “The event, Mr, Speaker, is unpredictable. And 1 solemnly protest against laying the State of Indiana open and vlunerable to a governmental chaos or unforeseen and unwanted result.” The rewritten Highway bill sets up a four-man, full-time commission instead of a five-man commission on a per diem basis as provided in the original bill. The four members will be appointed two by the Governor and two by the Lieuten-ant-Governor. The “big ripper” bill was changed to conform with other measures subsequently introduced by the G. O.P. majority. Meanwhile, Governor Schricker signed three minor bills whihe legal-

Mr. Scott and 12 buddies from the 17th infantry met him yesterday. ‘Hallo, Laddie,” Mr. Scott said. Laddie, swathed in blankets, raised his head and looked at his master. He was too weak to make a demonstration. When Laddie gets out of the hospital, he will inherit the cozy kennel of Jo-Jo, the 17th Infantry's late mascot. Jo-Jo, a bulldog, died last week.
