‘HOME RULE’ TAX
BILL IS PASSED
BY THE SENATE
(Continued From Pape One.)
negotiated by the Indiana state board
of agriculture.
AMENDMENTS
MADE BY SENATE.
That section restoring home rule as
passed by the senate Is as follows:
The several tax levies shall be estab
lished by proper legal officers of any mu
nicipal corporation after the formation
and publication by them of a budget on
forms prescribed by the state board of
accounts showing in detail the money pro
posed to be expended during the suc
ceeding year, the valuation of all tax
able property within the jurisdiction and
the rate of taxation which it is proposed
to establish, and after a public hearing
within the jurisdiction at which any tax
payer shall have the right to be heart*
thereon.
Ten days’ notice by publication of such
budget and of such public hearing In
two newspapers of opposite political
parties published in such district or in
one such paper, if only one be there pub
lished, then the same shall be published
in two- newspapers of general circulation,
representing the two leading political
parties, published in any taxing unit next
adjacent there to, and by posting such
notice in three public places in such tax
ing district, shall be required.
Subject to the right of appeal there
from to the judge of the circuit court
of the county in which such taxing unit
or units are situate-*, sitting as an ar
biter, the several tax levies as estab
lished by the proper legal officers of
any municipal corporation and as re
ported by the county auditor to the state
board of tax commissioners, as provider
for in sections 197 and 191) of this act.
shall stand as the tax levies of such
municipal corporation for the year next
succeeding for the purposes set out in
the report of the county auditor, as cer
tified to the state board of tax commis
sioners.
FIFTY OR MORE MAY
MAKE AN APPEAL.
Any number of taxpayers, not less
than fifty, who are resident taxpayers
of any municipal corporation who are
affected by such levies, and who may
l>e of the opinion that the total tax levy
or any Item thereof as established by
the proper legal officers of such munici
pal corporation and certified to the state
board of tax commissioners in insuffi
cient to yield the revenue necessary to
meet the requirements of such municipal
ity, or that more revenue will be raised
by the tax levy as established than the
requirements of the government, eco
nomically administered, warrant, may
tile a petition with the said judge of
the circuit conrt of the county in which
such taxing unit or units are located,
sitting as an arbiter, not later than the
first day of October, setting forth a
showing. In such form and detail as the.
state board of tax commissioners mnv
prescribe and require, that a necessity
exists for an increase or decrease in th“
total tax levy or any item thereof as
the case may be.
Upon the filing of such petition the
said judge of the circuit court of the
county in which such taxing unit or units
are located, sitting as an arbiter, shall
have the power to order an increase or
decrease in the total tax levy or any
item thereof of any municipal corpora
tion upon a proper showing and upon
the submission of sufficient evidence,
upon bearing, showing that such increase
or reduction is warranted and such hear
ing shall be held by the said Judge of
the circuit court where the complaint
arose.
In case any such reduction or increase
is made by the said judge of the circuit
court, sitting as arhiter, after hearing a
petition therefor, such judge of the cir
cuit court shall certify his action in that
respect to the auditor of the county af
fected thereby, who shall verify sti'-h ac
tion to the "taxing unit or units inter
ested therein, provided, that the action
of the said Judge of the circuit court, ir,
ordering or denying an increase or re
duction of any tax levy shall be final and
conclusive.
Before the house adjourned for the
noon recess the amended senate bill was
returned to the house.
SENATE PASSES
BLUE SKY’ LAW
Members of the Indiana senate have
lived np to their pledges and passed by
unanimous vete the Symons-Givans "blue
sky” law.
Passage of the measure came only
after practically four days’ considera
tion, during which time nineteen amend
rnents were added to the bill.
\ Framers of the senate amendments
claim that the house members will con
cur.
Another near tilt occurred on the floor
of the senate immediately before the final
vote, when Senator Luke DufTey of Mari
on county was granted the floor for the
purpose of explaining his attitude toward
the bill and to refute charges of grand
standing made against him Wednesday
in an argument over the measure.
Senator Duffey declared that the
amendment offered and adopted to Sec
tion 16, the penalty section, providing
that “any person making a false state
ment of a material existing fact” while
advocating the purchase of stock, is a
joker, and that with this amendment the
law as passed would have no more ef
fect than the Ohio or New York state
blue sky laws.
Senator Duffey charged that only one
out of all the amendments offered by
Seator Itatts was of his own framing,
but gave him full credit for having made
a good amendment in that one he framed.
SAITS SAYS HE’S
OPEN TO ADVICE.
In reply Senator Itatts launched into
a denunciation of Senator Duffey, and
declared that he admitted he did not
frame all of the amendments, and that he
was always willing to listen to advice
from ontsiders.
Senator Duffey, in explaining his vote
on the bill, said that he voted “aye”
only because the next regular session
of the legislature could pass on the bill
and amend it so that it would have the
desired effect.
Section 20 of the bill, over which a
hot fight was waged on the motion of
Senator Batts, providing for amend
ments, was another occasion of battle.
Before amending, this section pro
vided that any purchaser of securities
could recover his money at any time
within a year.
A motion to strike out this provision,
made Wednesday by Senator Itatts. was
lost, but was brought up again yester-

day, when several senators rallied to its
support
Senator Furnas declared that if this
section were allowed to remain un
amended, that it would be impossible
to organise a new bank or other con
cern in the state as every share of stock
would have to be sold and then the pro
moters would have to wait twelve
months before they would dare to invest
the money.
The section was stricken out.
Some of the more important features
of the blue sky law are as follows:
TAKES EFFECT
AUGUST 1.
It becomes effective Aug. 1, 1920, if
approved.
All securities of Indiana corporations
or of foreign corporations having more
than 75 per cent of their assets in Indi

already filed with the secretary of state;
if the applicant is a foreign corporation
it must file a certificate executed by the
officer that it is authorized to

territory or government in which It Is
incorporated.
The measure applies to domestic in
vestment companies, foreign investment
companies and dealers.
A blue sky commission, consisting of
the secretary of state, the attorney gen
eral and the treasurer of state, is cre
ated.
This commission Is empowered to in
vestigate the moral and business char
acter of the applicant to determine
whether a license or certificate shall be
issued. *
The commission will also determine on
the percentage to be paid salesmen for
selling securities.
When requirements of the measure
! are complied with the secretary of state
! will issue a certificate setting out that
I :he concern has been Investigated by
j the state for the particular issue to he

LIMITS POWERS OF
COAL COMMISSION
Refusing to adopt an amendment of
fered by Senator Alfred B. Hogston of
Grant county, giving authority to the
coal commission to seize any coal mine
. in the slate, the senate in considering
the Goodrich coal commission bill, by a
i vote of 20 to 13, placed a, limit on the
: powers of the commissioners,

Summary—James M. Cox, democratic candidate for the presidency,
was a member of the house of representatives from Dec. 6, 1909, to
Jan. 8, 1913. The bills and resolutions which he introduced during this
period amounted to 829, classified as above.
Warren G. Harding, republican candidate for the presidency, took
his seat in the senate Dec. 6, 1915, and is still a member. During this
period, from Dec. 6, 1915, to June 5, 1920, he introduced 139 bills, classi
fied as above.
Hogston declared that the amendment
was to have been added to the bill in
the house, but that in some manner it
became lost.
The amendment provided that whenever
necessity demanded such action, the coal
commission should have the power to
seize any coal mine or coal producing
property, to operate it and to sell the
coal so obtained.
It provided, however, that a separate
account of all coal should be kept In
order that the operators of the mine
might receive compensation.
WOLFSON OBJECTS
TO SEIZURE CLAUSE.
The seizure of any mine would have
been made possible without any public
notice or hearing.
Senator Wolfson of Marion county ob
jected strongly to the seizure clause, be
cause it leaned too strongly toward state|
and government ownership, which he de
clared himself absolutely against.
In reply, Senator Hogston stated he
also was against government ownership,
hut added that he believed thjft the peo
ple of Indiana should have Home relief,
and declared that relief yould not be
had from the present coal situation un
til a club of some kind was placed In
the hands of the commission.
A viva voce vote was taken and the
chair was unable to determine the re
sult, so a rising vote was called for, re- (
suiting In a tte, 15 to 15.
A second rising vote resulted in a 10
to 19 tie.
Acting Chairman Nedjl then voted
“no,” resulting In the loss of the amend
ment.
(RAVENS’ MOTION
IS VOTED DOWN.
An amendment offered by Senator
Wolfson of Indianapolis, providing that *
in the event that the commission, acting
for the state, should seize a mine, thst
a separate fund be creuted by the state
ireusurcr for handling all funds for the
mine.
The amendment was adopted by a rls
tug vote of eighteen to fourteen.
An effort was made by Senator Joseph
M. Cravens of Jefferson county, demo- ,
trat, to strike out ail sections of the pill 1
excepting the enacting clause, and sub
stituting a bill appropriating $50,0U0 for
the immediate use of the attorney gen
eral with which to institute action to
enforce the anti-trust laws.
The Cravens amendment was voted
dt wn, however, and the bill advanced to
third reading.
An attempt of Senator Douglass to
have the senate go into committee of
the whole to consider the Johnson “home
rule” tax bill, passed by the house, was
voted down, nineteen to fifteen.
FORMER GOVERNOR’S
WIDOW GETS PENSION
The lower house today passed a senate
bill giving a $lO9 a month pension to
the willow of former Gov. Ira J. Chase.
The ways and means committee of the
house recommended that this be reduced
to SSO a month, but the house refused
to lower the pension.
It was explained that the widow ia si
years old, is crippled and blind and in
need of that umount.
SCHOOL LOAN
BILL GOES UP
Two engrossed senate bills, by Senator
Masters, affecting only the city of In
dianapolis, were today passed by the
house.
One provides for the issuance of a tem
porary loan by the school commissioners,
bearing Interest at not more than oV*j
per cent, to provide money for exhausted
special or local tuition funds.
The notes shall mature in less than one
yeur and interest will be payable either
at maturity or periodically.
I.dans made in one year shall not ex
ceed a sum greater than the estimated
proceeds to lie collected by tpx levy.
Provisions also are made in the bill for
notice of bids and tlie process under
which the commissioners must operate.
The other bill has similar provisions
for the reimbursing of the special fund,
except that it provides for the transfer
ring of money from one fund to another.
Where the revenue of the special fund
is depleted to such an extent that the
school corporation believes that not
enough money is contained therein to
complete the school year, it is given the
power to borrow from any other fund
sufficient money to carry out the program
until the special fund is reimbursed by
the tax levy proceeds.
KIPER BILL STATUS
IS STUMBLING BLOCK
The senate's big problem at this time
is to reach some majority understanding
on the substitute tax bill for the Tuthill
legalizing bill as passed by the house.
For the last two days a senate com
mittee has failed to reach an greement
on the proposed Kiper bill, which con
tains some of the features of tbe bill
favored by the Farmers' federation.
The stumbling block of the senate has
been the determining of the probable
INDIANA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JULY 23, 1920.
legal status of the proposed Kiper bill,
regarding the proposed validating of
bond issues, which would be seriously
Impaired If there were any great reduc
tion in valuations.
The senate is also concerned over tbe
proper provisions for the making ot
Ftate tax levies when there will be large
reductions in valuation throughout the
state.
The tax problem must be solved by
tbe senate before there Hre any sub
stantial prospects of adjournment.
Indications now are that the senate is
attempting to get around tbe legalizing
plan of the house.
The majority members are giving much
thought to the political effects of legal
izing legislation if the senate should at
the last minute concur on tjie Tutlilll
legalizing bill as passed by tbe house.
The republicans realize that any notion
legalizing the horizontal increases which
have been declared invalid by thp state
supreme court will not meet with the
approval of the citizens of the state.
MAJORITY W ANT
SUBSTITUTE BILL.
The majority republicans are hoping
to decide on a substitute measure which
will overcome this state-wide objection
or. If forced to legalize the increases,
they want to do it in a sugar-coeted way.
Many members of the house contend
that the legalizing method is the only
way out of the trouble, and are willing
to meet any issue which might 'arise
during the fall campaign from its adop
tion.
The opinion prevails today that the
Johnson bill, us passed by the house.
In returning the power to make tax
levies to the local taxing units, will
probably be adopted by the senate with
out prolonged debate or with radical
changes.
The Johnson bill Is the principal busi
ness scheduled for today with the sen
ate sitting as a committee of the whole.
The third big question is the war
memorial, and it Is evident now that
the house bill in no way meets the pro
visions of the original measure which
was favored by the American legion.
The house reduced the proposed state
appropriation for the memorial from
five millions to two millions and set aside
the sites of the state school for the blind
and St. Clair park in Indianapolis as
the location of the memorial,
t (II NTY AND CITY
BILLS NOT OIT. y
The ways and means committee of the
house has not reported out the county
or city memorial bills providing for an
additional five millions.
At this time, with the house stating
they have completed their major work
of tbe special session and are ready to go
home If the senate will let them, there
Is little prospect of any action on the
county ami city memorial hills.
Thu senate might be prevailed to In
crease the appropriation and In this way
satisfy the American legion.
The senate might make specific pro
visions for the removal of the state
school for the blind and thus give a
definite idea as to when work could
begin.
As the bill now stands it is very in
definite.
The senate must also take action On
a bill passed by the house repealing
(lie primary ejection law.
Although some member* of fho house
nrc hoping that the senate will com
I >te its work In time to permit of final
adjournment Saturday night, it is prac
tically conceded that there will be no
prospects of ending up the special era
(don until next Tuesday or Wednesday.
A SSESSORS* SA L A RIES

ables.

such $3,000 a year will receive not more
than $0 a day.
HOUSE PASSES TWO
PLATOON BILL
With only one dissenting vote the
house of representatives today passed
the engrossed senate bill providing for
the two-platoon system of fire depart
ments In every city and town in Indiana.
Representative Tillman of Warrick
county was the only member to cast a
vote of “uo.”
Representative Scott of Vermilion
county, in explaining his vote, declared
that while he* would vote “aye,” he was
of the opinion that the law would “hit
hard on some of the smaller towns.”
The bill as passed is as follows;
The fire departeinent or fire force in
every city or town having a regularly
organized paid fire department or fire
force, shall be divided into two bodies
or platoons, one to perform day service
nnd one to perforin night service.
In cases of emergency, the chief of the
fire force, or the assistant chief or the
chief officer in charge ut any fire, shall
have power to assign ail members of tin
fire force io continuous duty, or to con
tinue any member thereof on duty, as
may be necessary.
No member of either of said platoons
shall be required to perform continuous
duty for a longer consecutive period than
twenty-four hours; excepting as may be
necessary to equalize the hours of dnty
and service and also except when neces
sary as above provided.
This act shall take effect the first day
of January, 1921.
Senator Hogston of Grant county Is the
author of the bill.
The senate passed the bill Monday.
Constitutional rules were not sus
pended In either the senate or the house.
Members of the house committee on
cities and town* reported the bill fa
vorably Wednesday.
Some discussion of the phraseology of
the bill arose, Representative Craig
pointing out that mime provisions should
be made not to include volunteer fire de
partments who may be "regularly or
ganized nnd paid,” but who do not de
vote exclusive time to the fire force.
Representative Newman declared that
at present a great injustice was being
done the fire fighters.
"No town ought to expect the firemen
to be on duty twenty-four hours, when
their policemen are working only eight
hours.” he said.
"What if it does cost a little more?
This is a humanitarian proposition,” he
added.
Representative Ttldaman, author of a
similar bill for shortening hours of fire
men, and McKinley upheld the bill, the
latter lauding the work of the tire de
partments.
He cited one instance of a fireman who
had seen hts child only once a day iu
seventeen years.
