* Truman's Reorganization Plan ‘WASHINGTON, Jan. 31 (UP)—Former President Herbert Hoover said today that this country has reached “the saturation point” in taxation and that government costs
must be reduced.
Mr. Hoover testified before the House Executive Expe Committee in support of President Truman's
request for broad powers to reorganize the government. He said that ‘economies would be considerable” through the grant of such power. Stresses Economies He stressed the need for such economies, saying the burden of government is piling up on the average citizen, . Mr, Hoover sald that at pres

Then, in answer to committee
questions, he said: “I believe this country has reached the saturation point by way of taxation.” A Mr. Hoover vigorously opposed ns that “quasi-judicial, | quasi-legislative agencies such as| the Interstate Commerce Comor the Raliroad Retirement Board be exempted from the measure. “I think that if you start making exceptions there will be no end to the exceptions that will be taken and this legislation will break down,” he said.

Hay Away .
On October 21, 1948, John Tinder, a' Republican nominee for the Indiana legislature, delivered a political address at a public meeting in which he charged certain Democrats sought election of George 8. Dailey as proseculing attorney in order to “bring back the lush days of a wide open city” and in which he criticized the administration of public offices previously held by members of this group. He mentioned by name, in addition to Mr, Dailey, William Clauer, John McNelis, municipal judge; Pavid M. Lewis, lojmer prosecuting aftorney; EdnH, 8mith, Henry O. Goett, former superior court judge, and Frank McKinney, treasurer of the Indiana Democratic commitlee. - The Times reported portions of this address as a part of the regular and full coverage of political campaign news which it feels is
to bring to the electorate in advénce of, an election.
