SENATE PASSES TltV nn I WITH

I HA DILL Willi STORMYDEBATE Vote is 27 to 23 With Three Democrats Favoring Measure. INDIANAPOLIS, March 7. The Indiana senate passed the Mendenhall tax reform bill last evening, after longer and more tempestuous debate than has marked any legislative proceeding In Indiana in the last five sessions of tho general assembly. The vote was 27 to 23. Three Democrats voted with the Republican members to give the narrow margin of one vote beyond the necessary constitutional majority. The bill now goes to the house for concurrence or rejection. The fact that the senate has restored In some form or other practically all of the provisions of the bill as was originally Introduced made it certain last night that the house would not concur in the amendments. Friends of the new tax legislation are hopeful, however, that in conference between representatives of the two branches, the points of disagreement can be adjusted and the bill can be made into law' with only a few variations from its present form. Increases Power of Board. Briefly the bill marks a departure from the present taxation system in Indiana in the valuation standard that it defines, and in the increased powers it confers on the state board of tax commissioners. The house passed the bill with a provision for a 60 per cent cash valuation but this was rejected as distinctly a step backward, and one that would Involve the state In constantly receeding taxable totals and corresponding increases of all rates. The tangible property section, with provision for a 25 per cent valuation, was objectionable to a majority of house members and it was eliminated. The senate amendment to Section 8, which was presented by Senator Wolfson, of Indianapolis, provides for the return of the intrinsic value of tangible property, and "the actual or reasonable income-producing value, of Intangible property. Senator McConaha, of Richmond, oted against the bill. SKIRT AND BLOUSE x .

Paderewski Plays Big Part in Poland's Reconstruction

Hotel Bazar, official headquarters of Paderewski In Wilhelms square, Posen; recent photo of Paderewski and map of territory In which Poland Is vitally concerned. Territory heavily shaded is the land Germany has been forced, under the new armistice terms, to surrender to Poland. NEW YORK, March b. What of Poland's future? Her case is one of the ! many left in a chaotic state by the war.. After a century and a half of persecution is she to become a free and independent nation? Or is that freedom to be sacrificed that other European countries may re-establish a balance of power? The men who have been leading in the recent moves in Poland may settle that question. Poland's part in the war naturally took the Initial course of a movement to drive the Russians out of Poland. General Pilsudskl knew what Rus sia was like, for be had been in a Russian prison for live years and had had to escape, when threatened with arrest a second time, to Austria, there to recruit and organize his army. When the war was declared Pilsudskl came out of exile and leading his army of Poles drove the Russians out of Poland. He was riotously acclaimed by the populace of the Polish cities as he advanced back to Warsaw. But then he turned on the Austrians and Germans and demanded that they establish a Polish government. Their answer was the formation of a council of state with Pilsudskl as the military representative. When, however, they asked the Polish army to swear allegiance to them Pilsudskl resigned. Important amendments to the tax bill adopted by the senate sitting as Amn A.i .t 1 wl,A1A Incresing salaries of members of i state tax board from $4,000 as proposed in the bill, to $6,000. Giving the 6tate tax board power to order reassessment of real estate in any unit of tener than once in each I four years. ! Eliminating provision that would ! have given county commissioners ; power to employ tax ferrets. Placing appointment of members of state tax board in hands jointly of governor, secretary of state, and auditor of state instead of in hands of i governor omy. i Incresing scale of pay for certain local taxing officials, aid being to get more efficient men. . Placing salary of secretary of state tax board at $3,000 instead of $1,S00 as fixed by the house. Limiting power of state tax board to fix tax levies to years 1919 and 1920. Giving any taxing district right to establish maximum levy of 1 cents on the dollar. The following amendments were made in the tax bill at the sessions of the senate as a committee of the whole yesterday afternoon and last night: Calling for 100 per cent appraisement of property for taxation and specifying method as to assessment of tangible and intangible property. Adding $800 to the present mortgage exemption limit and thereby making the limit $1,500. Providing that when local taxing officials are removed the successor shall be of the same political party as the man removed. Exempting from taxation up to fifty acres campus and grounds used for educational purposes. Exempting from taxation of grounds of churches and religious societies up to fifteen acres. Including Knights of Columbus and Young Men's Hebrew association as organizations to be exempt from taxation. Exempting $1,000 in valuation for taxation of property of any soldier or sailor seventy or more years old, under-certain conditions. Adding new interrogatory to questions in assessment schedule. This amendment aimed to check up on those who have filed income tax returns.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM

pg;

Most of his army was interned for refusing to take the oath and he was imprisoned and kept in prison until the signing of the armistice. Pilsudski's resignation from the council of state caused that body to be supplanted by a regency council, which was appointed by the Germans. Germans Are Hated Foe. When Pilsudskl came out of a German prison he entered Poland like a triumphal hero. The powers of complete military commander were given him by the regency council on November 11, and a few days later he was appointed absolute ruler. Pilsudskl is really a democrat who leans towards moderate socialism. A friend and Idol of the vast population of the Polish nation, he is, however, a bitter enemy of the landowners and; aristocrats, because of his belief in the necessity for fundamental reforms such as the land problem. It would seem that as far as internal affairs, the Polish question has been solved by the leadership of Pilsudski. However, months before the allies had recognized Roman Dmowskl head of the Polish national committee in Paris, as the spokesman of Poland, it wJ11 be noticed that neither his name nor that that of Ignace Dederewskl bas been mentioned in any connection so far with the fighting of Poland for liberty, As a matter of fact .neither of them had set foot in Poland for four years. Dmowskl before the war was a member of the National Democratic

party, which Dr. E. H. Lewinski-Cor-win says was . neither national nor demooratic and which M. Leroy-Beau-lieu says was the most profoundly conservative of all the parties. When Paderewski came to America to plead Poland's cause he carried with him the prestige of the allies and the Paris committee. He raised an army of 15,000 Poles who fought in France under General Ilaller. What Poland Critics Say. Now many students of the Polish situation are saving that this army represented, not Poland, but the Dmowskl-Paderewski faction and militated directly against Pilsudski. The critics say that while Pilsudski was fighting for Poland the Paris committee was pulling diplomatic wires to get control of Poland using Paderewski and Dmowski to aid them in Poland. When Paderewski arrived in Warsaw the news Came out that the Pilsudskl government had been weakened by a coup d'etat. Critics ask why the Paderewski regime sought to discredit the Pilsudski faction. Pilsudski's friends say that the interest of the so-called Paris committee in Poland goes beyond a desire to see Poland independent. It wants to see Poland linked to France as a buffer state. The new Poland of their making would not be democratic or national, these critics assert. England also is interested in the success of the noted pianist, they point out. The fact that a British warship carried Paderwskl to Danzig is called significant. "
