WPA Busy On Local Project In Indiana
The Works Progress Administration is preparing final plans and estimates for exterior redecoration of the Court House and Jail in Indiana, plus grounds landscaping and removal of the cupola and downelock. WPA engineer E. W. Lassen expects papers signed by County Commissioners Campbell Houck and Flenniken and forwarded to Washington for approval within a week. Work could begin by mid July. Commissioner Flenniken cites clock tower removal as a safety measure after three engineers and an architect agree the structure is hazardous. The commission and architect Henry M Rogers of Johnstown, with engineer Q B Jones, are reviewing the broader improvement program.

Earle Plan Still Far Off Enactment
Harrisburg June 6 Governor Garle's 80.65 million revenue program remains distant from enactment as a politically split legislature wastes five weeks of the special session. The Democratic House has passed taxes totaling about 60.5 million but most measures, liquor tax exception, sit in Republican committees. Proposals with about 20 million potential revenue face snags in committees, including gasoline tax increase and truck and heavy trailer license fee boosts. The 5 million liquor store tax awaits action after Senate tentative approval but delays persist.
