State Assembly In Final Week

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 12 — (UP)—Two-thirds of its session behind it, the Indiana general assembly launched the final third ami a new week today with a bulky sheaf of work facing the lawmakers between now and

March 5.

By way of emphasizing the task remaining, the records showed that less than four per cent of the 775 bills and resolution introduced since the assembly opened had been passed by both houses and sent to Goveinor Gates. Gates had signed

i; of them.

The remainder, nearly 70’per cent of which were Republicansponsored measures and another 15 per cent co-authored by one Republican and one Democrat, were being ground slowly through the legislative mills. Representatives returned to their desks to find that the Republican majority's liquor control bill had blossomed from a skeleton reorganization measure to a comprehensive instrument. It was no surprise, but while the legislators were home for the weekend, Attorney General James A. Emmert completed a

The committee was expected to report the bill favorably to the House floor today or tomorrow. Besides reorganizing the state alcoholic beverage board the completed bill would give the GOP specific control over whole sale beer and liquor permits, increase excise taxes on liquor by an estimated $3,500,000 to $4,000.000 annually, ban tavern dancing, set uniform midnight closing hours, and bar minors from places where by-the-drink sales were made.

Harold MacMillan, British cabinet minister resident in the Mediterranean area, and Reginald Leeper, British ambassaor to Greece, were summoned to the final meeting and witnessed the signing. The civil war was touched off by the refusal of ELAS to turn in the arms with which it helped defeat the Germans on the grounds that the government gendarmerie and national guard retained their weapons. The leftist EAM charged that the gendarmeria and national guard actually constituted a pri\ate right-wing’ army, some members of which had served with the Nazis during German occupation of Greece. EAM sympathizers demonstrating against the arms ban were fired upon by government police and within 24 hours open warfare was raging in Athens.

THE LINCOLN'S TRIBUTE TO LINCOLN

"LET US DO OUR DUTY AS WE

UNDERSTAND IT."

Abraham Lincoln was a clear-sighted, practical man. And also one of tha greatest humanlterians America has ever known. His duty as he performed it, was to consistently reject and fight against deceit and selfish greed, to uphold our democracy’s doctrine of freedohi. That is evident In his supreme acts of statesmanship in national crisis of the past. As a soldier in his youth, as president later, Lincoln knew the real horror of warfare. His plea for legislation to make the Civil War “short, sharp and decisive, gave sound to his animosity to all that war meant. . . • gave voice to his courage . . in preserving liberty and justice at even so great a cost. Lincoln s enemies again ravish peace-loving peoples today, in the form of the vicious Axis powers. Let us honor Abraham Lincoln’s name in deed, by doing “our duty as we understand If”! Our duty this instant is to give our gallant fighting men all the support we possibly can ... in war equipment to win this war! Buy War Bonds and more

War Bonds, now!

Lincoln Did In Service.
