Indiaga’s Mt. Vesuvius — the sige legislature—today appedred ready to erupt all over the state-

house. -

. * Prepare to Fire Fuse

* The Democrats, meanwhile, gleefully laid plans to set fire te the fuse that might leave the special session of the Republicancontrolled legislature hors de combat for the full 40-day limit, The GOP picture was dominated by the “grass roots” public meeting called by State Chairman Cale Holder, Senate Pro Tem John Van Ness and House Speaker W.:O. Hughes.

These appeared to be the facts: ONE: The Holder-Hughes-Van

Ness leadership is determined to!

insist upon the extreme policy of

“defy the federal bureaucrats” no

matter what it costs—in tax dollars or veteran Kepublicans who do not agree that is the best policy. : y : TWO: Fifteen of the 92 Indiana county chairmen showed up. The others appeared not interested in getting embroiled.

THREE: The scenario-like session was utilized by two “obvious but unannounced” and one al-ready-nominated candidate for campaign speeches, FOUR: The “moderation” minority of the GOP was chastized, but not beaten down.

FIVE: Resentment on part of several GOP veterans about “washing the dirty linen in pubRe.”

SIX: Flat rejection of GOP minority’s stand that “stand pat” attitude on anti-secrecy welfare amendment might wreck the state’s treasury and cause future boost in taxes.

Democrats Outline Stand

Democrats meanwhile were:

ONE: Talking about going home if GOP minority cannot make up its mind on a course of action by midnight Saturday. TWO: Introduction of a $15-a-| day expense allowance for legis-| lators who alréady Have drawn &11 of their $1200 salary for 1951 while serving in the regular session. THREE: Caucusing about strategy of “blasting” out key welfare issues—repeal or postponement of effective date, while GOP

State Auditor Millis were the first summoned to testify by the chairman, who had declared the policy of “Indiana would. pay its own bills and tell Washington

ure to defer the effective date of the secrecy issue until July 4, 1053, would “wreck” the state treasury because of the loss of federal funds and the political hazard of “double taxation” for the welfare pr . Both said they felt it was an “honest difference of opinion” on the party's best strategy. Mr. Smith charged at an earlier meeting of tha legislators and elected officials the consenSus was to defer "the effective date of the act until 1953 to give the GOP time to make it an issue {in 1952 or give Congress or the {courts time to settle the dispute. The secretary of state flatly charged neither the state committee or the Republican Policy! Committee that guided action in {the regular session had been || asked to decide on the question! of the proposed” change in the effective. date of the ‘bill. |

“The only opinion,” he said, | “came from the advisory commit- | tee appointed last Friday by Mr, | Holder, Sen. Van Ness and Rep. | Hughes, ° | “You can see what kind of ad‘vice you'd get from a committee like that.” ; Chairman Holder pugnaciously asked each official if they would “bow to the will of the majority of the party workers” and support whatever policy was decided. Both answered they would continue to work for the party’s interest. George Craig, former national commander of the American Legion, interposed with a “no surrender at any cost” impassioned plea that gave the meeting a campaign atmosphere. Judge Alex| Clark, GOP candidate for mayor; of Indianapolis, also used the welfare issue to get some campaign licks across.

‘Urges Delay of Bill

Tom Bath, former Secretary of State from South Bend, flatly came out for postponing the ef-| fective date of the bill. He also! scored Mr. Holder for dragging
