Theologian In Chapel Address Many equally valid philosophies of the nature of man have been advanced in the history of the world, but the double-pronged one of today is leading society to frustration. Dr. Joseph Haroutunian told a DePauw convocation yesterday morning. The University of Chicago divinity school professor said man is acting now in what he termed “his own enlightened self-interest.” He described it as “having to consider the interests of other people in order that they do not stand in our way when we want to do something.’’ In another way, Haroutunian said this new “basic ethic” has resulted in “everybody being out to get something, but being very nice about it.” As a result, he said even a friendly encounter of conversation nowadays is fraught with “built-in suspicion” because many times the motive for encounter is merely to profit from one another. “It is precisely this problem that is endemic to our culture and has pervaded our lives,” Haroutunian said. Haroutunian maintained that this was one part of the double character of the nature of man today. He said the balance portrays man as a role player who is what he is by participating in certain Institutions—traditions, mores, patterns—of our culture.

Bills Signed Into Law By Branigin Governor Roger D Branigiu last night signed his approval to the bill that exempts prescription drug sales from sales tax and also to the legislative those things that are conducted the 1965 General Assembly. The Governor also signed bills to repeal the poll tax (H.B. 1192) and grant property tax exemptions for the Salvation Army, rural water corporations and certain property of cemeteries (S.B. 118). The prescription drug exemption bill (H.B. 1140) in addition imposes the sales tax on leasing of tangible property and on occasional sales of motor vehicles (those by persons not in the business of selling vahicles). The House measure did not contain a special effective date for exemption of drugs, and as it was approved finally by the legislature contained an emergency clause to make it effective when signed by the Governor and filed with the secretary of state. The exemption is likely, therefore, to be put in effect a? soon as the State Revenue Department can send out instructions for its implementation by druggists. The governor earlier yesterday signed 10 bills, including measures to raise maximum workmen's compensation payments to $45 a week from the present $42 (H.B. 1033), allow the four state universities to issue revenue bonds for classroom construction to be retired from student fee collections (H.B. 1430), set up the “windfall” provision for monthly distribution of motor vehicle highway account money (H B. 1559) and provide the 2 cents a pack cigarette tax hike effective May 1 (H.B. 1660). Weather Cloudy, Warmer Partly cloudy today. Mostly cloudy tonight with some snow flurries. Mostly cloudy and v/armer Friday. High today 34 to 40. Low tonight mid to upper 20s. High Friday 36 to 44.
