CAPEHART ASKS "FOR VOTE DATA

Challenges Democrats to ~ Present Evidence of

-Indiana Fraud.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

9.—Senator Capehart (R. Ind.) today declared that as a member of the senate privileges and elections tommittee he would be willing to vote to Investigate the 1944 Indiana election “provided there is some evidence of conspiracy and fraud” other than’ the purely partisan ambiguities produced by Chairman Fred Bays and the Democratic state committee.” , Senator Capehart pointed out that

he himself had originally asked the special committee to investigate his campaign expenditures after the primary election last June. He did so, the senator explained, because of the. criticism levelled at him by the Democratic state convention which nomindted his opponent, then Governor Henry F. Schricker,

61 BONUS BILLS “FACING DEFEAT

In Test on First of Two Measures.

Two soldiers’ bonus bills, one in the senate and another in the house today appeared to be headed toward defeat. Both were Democratic~ inspired. The first test came yesterday in the senate when Senator John Kendall (R. Danville), moved to have the measure committed te the senate - finance committee. It previously had been assigned to the military affairs committee and had been reported to the floor without recommendation. : In a debate that followed the move to recommit the bill to committee, Democratic Senator Leo J. Stemle of JasperiRo-author<of the bill with ‘Derflocratic - Senator Charles F. Fléming of Hammond, charged the majority with delaying tactics. \ f Embarrassment Seen “I strongly suspect that Republican senators want to avoid a vote on this bill. I also suspect it would be embarrassing to them and that for this reason they are trying to bury this bill,” Senator Stemle remarked sarcastically. “This bill will never see the light of day again,” he added. Senator Elgar I. Higgs (R. Connersville) was indignant. “This is merely a .political attempt to embarrass the Republicans,” he fumed. - Pleads for Approval Senator Fleming, however, pleaded’ for consideration for the bill and said nothing but sincerity prompted him to introduce it. A world war II veteran, he reviewed the plight of a discharged veteran and urged the senate to approve the measure. The bill would cost the state approximately $40,000,000. Senator John Van Ness, Republican majority leader, jumped to his feet to defend his party from Democratic mauling. ‘ “High officials of the ‘American Legion have informed me that they don’t want this bill passed. They consider it an insult to offer the exserviceman $100 mustering-out pay,” he explained.
