stor Homer E.

“What did the home folks have former Senator William E. Jenner, Lawton st. to say about the Crimean. oonfer-| og the new chairman of the Indi-|for her son, S. Sgt. Bertil S. John-

Make Attempt

City Personnel Director Bill

Possibility of salvaging the city’s] personnel director bill by removing | its political “hooks” was to be discussed today by the house committee on Indianapolis affairs. Some members of the Marion county delegation are making a last-

minute attempt to avert a complete

“wash-out” of city council's adminis-

The bill allows the mayor to name a personnel director to administer a semi-merit system, only with = “approval of the council.” Some Marion county representatives are in favor of deleting the latter clause, and permitting the mayor to name whomever he chooses as personnel chief. They think that's the only way the measure could. he squeezed through _a legislature which has in Marion county's factional brawls. They likewise would eliminate an emergency. clause which now makes the measure effective immediately. This would delay establishment of its provisions in the city government until 1947 when the next administration takes office. : Another “reform” proposal which would have created an office of budget director was killed in the house on the theory it was so much ammunition against Mayor Tyndall.
