WEDNESDAY, At the State House—

STORE DIVISION MS TRANSFERRED

License Office Put Under Tax Board on Advice Of Beamer.

- By: EARL RICHERT

Slowly, but surely, the pieces of Indiana’s governnienfal machinery scattered about by the repeal of the McNutt Reorganization Act and the subsequent “ripper” suit decision are being picked up and put back into place. The latest ‘“cog” to be put in place is the Store License Division, which today was transferred from the Gross Income Tax Department to the State Tax Board. go” This move was made upon the

Beamer who ruled that the Store Division, which was placed under the Gross Income Department by executive order of former Governor McNutt, should be returned to its former status now that all the McNutt executive orders have been repealed. The Store License Division was created by the Legislature in 1929 as a part of the Tax Board. Yesterday, Mr. Beamer cleared up the clouded status of the State Industrial Board .by ruling thatthe present five-man board is legal. He is expected to rule, within the next day or two, in an opinion to Statg Auditor Richard T. James on the status of several other state commissions and boards which are now “floating around loose.” : The Store License Division, which employs 16 persons, licenses all retailers and wholesalers who handle merchandise from any fixed place ‘of business. The license fees range from $3.50 annually for a single store to $150 for each store in a chain above 20 stores. Between $500,000 and $600,000 is collected by the department annually. Henry S. Murray, Tax Board chairman, said there would be no changes in the department until he had a chance to study the division’s routine. The division will remain in its present location at 141 S. Meridian ‘for the time being.” Norman ordon is acting administrator. Although the Gross Income Tax Department no longer has any connection with the Store License Division, Gilbert Hewitt, gross income director, . said his field men would continue to check on stores to learn whether they had their R-

Parishioners of St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church will be steeped in American lore when this weekend is over. At their “America All-Out Festival” Friday and Saturday, they are to be reminded of many famous American names and events. The first event will be a “Boston Tea Party” for ladies of the parish, given on the lawn of the Sisters’ residence, 42d St. and Central Ave. This is to last from 3 to 5 p. m, Friday, and will consist of military bridge. At 5:30 a Cape Cod dinner will be served in the “American Garden Restaurant,” on the school

American folk dances will be demonstrated by children of the grade school at half-hourly intervals from 7 to 10 p. 'm, both evenings. Another phase of America will be an exhibit of native American animals. The Rev. Fr. Edwin Sahm is in charge of the festival, to which the public is invited.

but none of them was given a “sendoff” comparable to that given Wilfred Jessup, retiring head of the Employment Security Division, yesterday. Between 300 and 400 employees of the division gathered on the third floor of the state-rented building at 141 S. Meridian St. to say goodbye to their old boss. A silver tea and coffee service, purchased by the employees, was formally presented to Mr. Jessup by Attorney General George Beamer, acting for Governor Schricker. “This is just what I've been wanting for years,” exclaimed Mrs. Jessup who was standing beside her husband. Mr. Jessup leaned over and kissed

ABT. Then, with emotion plainly show- / Ing in his voice, he urged the employees to accord his successor, Col. Everett L. Gardner, the same treatment they had accorded him. Mr. Jessup is retiring because of ill health. o ” os

THIS MUNCIE STORY was bound to come out again for retelling now that America is once more arming to meet an emergency. Two Muncie soldiers were scheduled to leave for the Army on Nov. 12, 1918. For three days prior to their date for leaving the two friends printed the town with the customary red. "They were still wildly wielding their brushes when on Nov. 11 suddenly whistles began to blow, bells to ring and people flocked into the streets. Investigating, the pair discovered the Armistice had been signed. So they .spent several more days celebrating the Armistice.

They are sold plain. But when you go to the postofice you will find a pot of glue right beside the customary ink bottle and you paste your envelope and stamp there and mail it quick.” 3 ® 2

5 MILLION SOLDIERS

CHUNGKING, China, July 16 (U. P.).—War Minister Ho Ying-Hin said yesterday that China, which started the Japanese war with 1,700,000 troops, now had 5,000,000 regulars, 800,000 guerrillas and 10,000,000 reserves and that all units now had modern arms. Gen. Ho, broadcasting a review of the four years of war, said that Japan used 20 divisions in China in 1937, 30% in 1938 and 1939, 35 in 1940 and 3612 in 1941. (A Japanese division might number 15,000 men or more.) Despite the increasing forces of the Japanese, Gen. Ho said, their gains had diminished progressively as China became stronger. Since January, 1939, he said, there had been nine major battles, Of these, he asserted, the Chinese lost three, those of K Nanchang, Ichang and the Chuntiao Mountains, and won six, those of North Hupeh,

Times Special

United States Government would do anything in its power to avoid war except impertl the freedom and security of Americans. The Federal Security Administrator and former Indiana University Law School dean spoke before the university students, faculty members and their guests. Discussing “In Defense of America First,” Mr. McNutt said if the

in immediate and deadly peril.” He said that the Government is determined that our people will never be surrounded by any one enemy. Hits at Isolationists

Striking at the isolationist point of view Mr. McNutt said “the same voices which denounced the Government for helping fight Britain's war now charge that it is helping fight Russia's war. “We are fighting our own battle notwithstanding the involuntary assistance of the Soviet. No one in Washington believes that in Russia hearts bleed for victims of predatory aggression. Everyone knows the Soviet is at war with Nazi Germany solely because her territory is invaded and her sovereignty challenged. There is no international idealism in Moscow.” Mr. McNutt asserted that the one fact which counts is that “America has never found it necessary to start a 45-billion dollar defense program against Russia even though Russia's territory extends to within 30 miles of American possessions,

Problem of Self-Defense

“This is a life and death struggle and we can no more afford to arch our eyebrows at Russia, making common cause in resisting aggression, than to close our eyes to England’s gallant efforts to stem it; “Ours is the problem of self-de-fense. Of defending America first, not last.”
