TRACTION COMPANIES ARE FORGED TO WALL BY MOTOR BUS LINES k (By United Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 7. Traction companies of Indiana are "against the wall' competing with motor trucks in short hauls and many -will he forced out of business unless a tax is placed jon the trucks, John McCardle, chalrtman of the public service commission warned today. "Unless some legislative action is .taken toward taxation of motor trucks 'which use the highways for transpor tation purpose, the majority of traction companies in Indiana will go out of business," McCardle said". "With one possible exception all traction lines in the state are operating at a loss today." The pleasure automobile has also made heavy inroads on traction busi ness, statistics for the last five years showed, just like the traction lmes re placed the steam railroads to a large degree. Members of the state highway com mission have considered taxing trucks i to makethe owners pay a bigger share iof contracting and repairing roads, 'It was pointed out that traction com panies maintain their own rights of i way and pay taxes to counties through i which they pass. The commission likely will support a bill in the legislature next January i calling for a heavier tax on trucks and trucking companies. Otherwise, j McCardle said, the low rates they are (able to charge can force the traction I companies out of business, while the : people "generally pay the bill in the Itraction company would have charged by paying taxes to keep up the roads." 20,000 REGISTRATION .

The headquarters are in Washington, DECENDANTS OF OLD STATE PIONEERS HERE Delving into the historical back ground of one's state, often there are to be found characters of those early days whose descendants now have their places among the citizenry of every good community. Such is the case in tracing back to former Governor James Brown Ray of Indiana, and his father before him. Mrs. Charles E. Shiveley of this city is the great niece of former Gov. Ray, and her great grandfather, the father of former Gov. Ray, is found to have had an interesting place in revolutionary history, especially as it pertains to the Hoosier state. Furnishes Data One of our citizens has furnished us the following reminiscence of this young Irishman, whose son James later was a governor of Indiana and great uncle of Mrs. Shiveley: Mad Anthony Wayne's father was and Irishmen, as you well know, and followed the tanning business as well as farming In Pennsylvania. Just before the battle of Bunker Hill a young Irishman hired himself to Anthony's father to work in the tanyard. When tho intelligence of the battle of Bun ker Hill was received, much excite ment prevailed throughout the land "It was determined by old Wayne to raise volunteers for the defense of the country. A number assembled, but they were at a loss who could drill the company. At last the young Irishmen stepped forth and said he knew something about it Old Wayne said: 'You bog trotter, take this gun and show your skill. Convinces Company He soon convinced them that his experience was worth something. Immediately they elected the young Irish man captain, but he declined in favcr of Young Anthony. They were all thoroughly drilled to the extent of young Erin's knowledge and soon brought into service. Anthony s ca reer is well known, but few know who the young Irishman was. His father was Ray, the father of the late Gov ernor James Brown Ray of this state. "Gov. Ray's father, after the Revolution, settled in Virginia, afterwards moved to Kentucky and then to Indi ana, into Vigo county, where he died a few years ago at the advanced age of about 110 years." It is also recalled that during foiv mer Governor Hays campaign ror state executive his opponents capital ized the phrase "Ray's Folly," refering to an ordinary two-story frame house built at Brookville. Because of the "fancy" windows in the gable and because, contrasted with the log cab ins of 1823, it was "aristocratic in appearance, the house got its name, and was used to indicate the supposed extravagance of the candidate for gov ernor War Museum At Fair Will Attract Interest A war 'museum under the super vision of the local American Legion post will be one of the features of the Wayne county TSIr, according to ar rangements now being made. Already numerous exhibits have been turned over to Frank McCoy or Dr. W. L. Misener,. members of the Amer ican Legion committee. Veterans of Foreign Wars and the Grand Army of the Republic also have been asked to co-operate in the museum, and the loan of a Civil war cannon has been promised by John Davenport a Civil war veteran.
