CURTAIL PATRONAGE ROLL OF EMPLOYEES IS URGE OF SOLONS INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 5. Administration leaders in the Indiana legislature arriving here in the van of the formal oprning session, seem intent cn cutting down expenses by curtailing the patronage roll or employes. However, it remains for the party caucuses ' or the early sessions to determine just what will happen in the matter of employes. Roughly estimated, it now t-eems that at least 100 employes will be attached to the pay rolls of the two houses. Democrats in . both branches may .have some trouble taking care of worthy party workers willing to serve the state for the next sixty days for Ihey will have few places to Hand over. It may be that they will meet the tituation by distributing their few Jobs among several persons, permitting one 1o be on the patronage list for fifteen days and then to be succeeded by another. In this fashion one job can be made to care for four persons. Taking care of the women may be another problem for -the political leaders for it is expected that they will demand more patronage than ever

given them in the past when usually one matron was found on the janitors'

jayroll. Work Out Patronage.

Distribution of the patronage, of

course, will come early in the session and as soon as settled, legislature will

pass its first appropriation bill that

; providing for the expenses of the see

sion. Previously both senate and 'house will work out the patronage

question in committee and party caucus. ,

Some reduction in - the number of

doorkeepers is wanted, according to personal expression of some members.

In the past this class of employes has

numbered a half score or more in

f ither house and there are also mem-

Ibers who believe that legislative work

might get along without injury with 'half that number, or less. Some mem

bers also feel that some cut might be l made in the number of clerks, each

Ibody in the past having hired about twenty. Pages, stenographers, jani

tors, postmasters and matrons go to make up the rest of the employes. Big salaries do not attach to the

jobs but invariably there are plenty of

.epplicants for the places. Legislators already here, however, say they are not burdened this year with those

wanting jobs and the principal positions, such as chief doorkeeper and

secretary have not the customary

fields or candidates.

PALLADIUM NEWS BUREAU. '

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. Among the 1,400 industrial and commercial organizations of the United States which will be invited by the United States Chamber of Commerce to be represented at a meeting in Washington to discuss the housing shortage will be the recently organized Chamber of Commerce of Richmond, Ind. John Ihider, chairman of the national chamber's civic development department, is preparing a program for the conference and he expects to announce the date for holding It in the near future. There will be a meeting of the national council of the United States Chamber of Commerce in this city, January 27 and 28 and measures to relieve the nation-wide housing shortage will be discussed thoroughly. Experts of the national chamber have estimated a shortage of houses in this country at more than 1,250,000, with the result that more than 4,000,000 are inadequately housed. William C. Dennis, well known in Washington as an international lawyer, formerly connected with the state department and, in his youth, a resident of Richmond, Ind., expressed an opinion to the Palladium correspondent that Japan is not courting a war with the United States, alarmist reports in jingo newspapers of the United States and of Japan to the contrary notwithstanding. Mr. Dennis has a thorough knowl

edge of far eastern questions for he returned to Washington from China only a few months ago after serving

two years as legal adviser to the Chi

nese government. Hostilities Improbable. In Mr. Dennis' opinion Japan is much more Interested in the exploitation of China than she is in picking a quarrel with the United States. Mr. Dennis admits that there is an antiAmerican sentiment among the Japan

ese people and he thinks the only possible danger of Japan entering into hostilities with America is the ruling class of Japan permitting popular feeling against America going too far, and he believes Japanese statesmen are far too clever td permit such a situation to arise. Mr. Dannis is of the opinion that

old China under its new republican

form of government has a great fu

ture. He says the Chinese govern

ment Is becoming stablized rapidly

and that the Chinese people are de

veloping a national spirit.

Following a conference between

Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania with Senator Watson of Indiana it was reported in Washington that these two powerful leaders in the upper house had discussed plans to oppose the tariff bill recently passed by the house which some of their Republican colleagues are favoring. Senator Watson is still ill and confined to his home and Senator Penrose is just recovering from an illness which kept him from Washington for 13 months. Strong Opposition. Proponents of the tariff bill, which Is an emergency measure designed principally to aid the agricultural interests of the country, while not ready to admit that the opposition of Senaorg Penrose and Watson could defeat the bill admit that such opposition might delay the measure in the senate and hinder the passage of the bill before the close of the present session, March 4. It Is stated that Senators Penrose and Watson are bothpledged to the passage of a soldier bonus bill but have reached an agreement not to press for action on such legislation during the present session.

Pickett, executive secretary of the Young Friends board, were chosen to Bet the quotas for the several yearly meetings and report , at a meeting to be held Thursday afternoon.

In arranging these quotas, four points are given consideration, Mr. Pennington said Wednesday. They are membership, wealth, activities and practice of the yearly meeting in supporting the work of the Five years meeting. One of the big tasks of the work will be to get the quotas before the individual yearly meetings for action. Arrangements for a deputation to Friends colleges and academies in the interest of life work enlistment have been placed in the hands of Clarence Pickett, Ruth anna M. Simms and Ross A. Hadley. Thes6 three persons represent the three departments through whom the most active enlistment work la maintained. Results of the deputation endeavor last year was very successful, it is said.

Douglass; vice president, Louis Schocke. Township clerk. Charles Wright will act as clerk of the board, having been elected last January for a term of two years. The board adopted a resolution to be presented to the county auditor and the board of county commissioners, In which a strong protest was made against a revaluation of real estate at the present time. The protest recited that the voters of the township at the last election oted an additional levy of three mills for the upkeep of the township schools; that this was aa

added burden to them, ana that a re-

I . t valuation, over and above the present inflated values, ' would prove a hardf hip.
