BILL 0 EMPLOY EXPERT KILLED

Senate Decides Move for Efficiency Would Be Waste of Money.

With leaders of both parties swinging heavy oratorical axes against it, the Senate today defeated a bill appropriating $50,000 for the hiring of an efficiency ex-

This measure would have empowered the State Budget Director to employ an agency to classify all State employees, the needs for each position and the need for purchase of supplies and equipment. The report of the agency was to be submitted to the next session of the Legislature to enable it to trim needless employees and expenditures from the budget.

‘We've Got to Cut’

“We've got to cut down on these useless expenditures,” asserted Senator Roger Phillips (D. New Albany), minority leader. “Let’s not fool the people. We are going to keep as many of our people here as possible and you Republicans are going to get as many of your people on: the public payroll as you can. Why spend $50,000 to have a bunch of experts tell us something that we won’t do.” Senator Edward Green (R. Indianapolis), one of the authors of the measure, interrupted: “Don’t judge the Republicans by yourselves. We want to clean house and to run the Government in the mast efficient possible manner.” Senator William E. Jenner (R. Shoals), majority floor leader, declared that he also opposed the bill.

Against Commission

“I don’t believe in special study he said. “I have served on some and have seen dozens in action during the last eight years. I think we are getting away from the principles of government. “Never have I seen a political party run on a platform of extravagance. They always run on a platform .of economy. And yet never have I seen a political party follow its platform. We'll have efficient government in Indiana some day, when someone gets enough ‘guts’ to say no to the pressure groups.” Senator Jenner said that “at present, government is not government for the whole, but government for organized minorities.” : 0 Senator Lawrence Carlson (R.|, Huntington), so-author of the measure, said that he had been informed that $50,000 could be saved through economizing on State printing contracts alone. d

amendment by saying that since the department would be set up on a .bi-partisan basis there was no need for the merit clause.

IN PINBALL SEIZURE

Jessie Levy, attorney for two defendants in a pinball case tried in Municipal Court today, charged police with “using Russian methods” in seizing the machine. Police testified before Judge Pro Tem Albert M. Thayer that they confiscated the machine under the “slot machine” act as it was being carried out of a poolroom in E. Georgia St, 600 block, to a truck. Arrested at the time were William Berman, of a downtown hotel, and Stanley Ramesberg, 4110 Carrollton Ave. The machine was not introduced in evidence. On motion of Miss Levy, Judge Thayer dismissed the case and discharged the defendants. Since the machine had not been presented in evidence, he said, there was nothing to show whether it could be used for gambling, He overruled a motion for the return of the machine to the deféndants.

Bridgeport Farmer Accused As Cattle Die of Starvation

Answering a report that cattle were tied up and dying of starvation and thirst, State Police went out to the farm of Stanley Milhous near Bridgeport yesterday evening. They found Mr. Milhous in the woods digging a grave for three dead cattle which were nearby. Farther away was another dead ore. Two cows chained and roped up near the barn were apparently near death from lack of water or food. Mr. Milhous was arrested, charged with cruelty to animals, and brought to County Jail. He was released on $100 bond. His case is to be heard Friday in Magistrate’s Court in Speedway City. Mr. Milhous could give no specific reason why the cattle were tied up. Neighbors said he had been a respected man of the community all his life. He had inherited the farm from his father. : Two years ago Mr. Milhous’ wife, whom he had married only a few vears before, was killed in an acci(lent in Bridgeport.

“Since she died; I haven't done things like I should,” Mr. Milhous told police, they said. He said he'd “let things go.” Police termed the case “one of the strangest” in their records. “It was a horrible sight,” Detective Robert O'Neal said. One cow had pawed a hole “six or eight inches” deep in an effort to get loose. Another had cut its neck straining against its halter. “They apparently had not had food or water for weeks, and you could almost see through them,” one policeman said. A tenant confided that he had slipped some iood to the cattle without Milhous knowing of it, but obviously it was not enough. When released, the cattle made for a nearby SoTmybin. Police spread some corn on thé ground and then gave them some water. A man and his wife live in the Milhouse home and they said they would take care of the surviving cattle. Milhous is 52 and he lived alone in one room of the house:

BILL SEEKS TO END PATRONAGE DISPUTE

Another Democratic move for a peaceful settlement of the Republic«n patronage dispute with Governor Sehricker was made in the Senate today. Senator Thomas . Hendricks (D. Indianapolis) introduced a bill crevting a State Council of Confirmation, composed of the Governor, {Secretary of State, Treasurer, Auditor and Superintendent of Public ‘nstruction. This board would eonfirm all appointments made in all departments and no appointments could be made unless the Governor concurred. i Mr. Hendricks claimed the measure would insure “the continuity of on efficient and soundly functioning “tate Government during the peroad of litigation which is certain to follow passage of the Republican cecentralization legislation.” Senator William E, Jenner, G. O. P. floor leader, offered a substitute rnotion that the bill be sent to the (3. O. P.-controlled Judiciary Committee, where it is expected to die. His motion carried.
