INDIANAPOLIS, Jan, 7.—(UP)— A new highway between Martinsville and Bloomington to eliminate danger spots on the present r ute was promised today by Samuel C. Hadden, state highway commission chairman,

many of these spots he said.

The new road will be about 16 miles long, he said, and will branch off the present Ind. 37 at a point six miles south of Martinsville. The road will join 37 again at the north-

TO ASSIST TAXPAYERS

The governor told members of the J Wm. Rahe, field agent of the Instate Board of Tax Commissioners < Gross In:ome Tax Division,

and county and elected township assessors that the gross income tax law was primarily responsible for Indiana’s present “forunate tax structure" which has placed the state in a “favorable position for the uncertainty of the days ahead when gross income tax receipts may fall.” Schricker said that estimates indicated that $30,000,000 in gross income tax funds would be distributed in 1944 for school and welfare aid— $21,000,000 to schools and $9,000,000 to welfare. He added that this total is $7.000 000 more than was raised by taxes three years ago. The conference of commissioners and assessors was to end today witn reports of committees. RECOMMENDS CHICAGO AS AS CONVENTION CITY

WASHINGTON. Jan. 7.—(UP) — Joseph B. Eastman, director of the Office of Defense Transportation, said today that Chicago was the most suitable city from a transportation standpoint for the Republican and Democratic conventions, but emphasized he was not trying to “dictate” to either party. Eastman said it was the same reason that prompted him to recommend Chicago last August in lettc-s to Frank C. Walker and Harrison Spangler, chairman of the Democratic and Republican national eommittfes respectively. Eastman’s new recommendation came as Spangler was en route to Chicago for the meeting to determine the site of the next GOP convention, armed with a copy of the ODT letter. Supporters of Wendell L. Willkie for the Republican presidential nomination reportedly oppose Chicago ,as a convention city.

HOPES FOR CONTROL INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. 7. (UP)— The Indiana CIO Political Action Committee, now being formed, hopes to contr 1 the next election by swinging its vottrs as a solid bloc, but several elections hence may emerge as a third party, Walter Frisbie, CIO state secretary said today. “We hope to enroll 150,000 persons in the Political Action Committee,’’ Frisbie said. "The Committee is to be wholly non-partisan as far as party tags are concerned. We will recommend the man who will support a program to make the Four Freedoms -especially freedom from want, which is the right to work - operative.” , AMITY' BAPTIST CHURCH

WASHINGTON. Jan. 7.—lUP)— This country needs "a good bombing” to make the people realize they are at war, according to Maj. John S. Garrenton of Portsmouth, Va„ anny chaplain back from the Asiatic war theatre. "The people in this country are not really keenly aware of the seriousne« of this war," he said at a press conference yesterday. "They are thinking in terms of little sacrifices and inconveniences." "As someone said before, "what this country needs is a good bombing." About the low-est thing Garrenton can think of is a wife who, while her husband goes through "hell, sweat and blood” overseas, "is playing around over here with another man.” "And about the next lowest thing I know." he added, "is the man whp plays around with her." Garrenton, former Baptist minister at Kempsville, Norfolk, and Alta Vista, Va., returned recently from nearly two years’ service as
