State officials have hopes of obtaining federal relief grants to finance construction, of a new Statehouse annex, it was learned today. Another report was that plans for a more extensive improvement in the form of a Capitol plaza, extending several blocks west from the State-house, were being considered; but that officials will regard themselves fortunate if they receive 'federal approval of annex building plans.

Governor Paul V. McNutt declined to comment when asked about Capitol building projects. Announcements of projects on the list of the proposed work program for Indiana will be made at the proper time, he said. Meanwhile it was learned that no repairs have been made on the present Statehouse annex, housing the state highway and health departments, for several months. This added strength to the belief the state hopes to replace the building.

Available July 1 out of the state budget approved by the 1935 legislature will be $951,200 in a lump state building fund, to be used as directed by the state budget committee and the governor. A year later $626,100 will become availabl.e It was pointed out that if necessary there would be authority for use of a part of this fund to match federal grants for improvements of Capitol property. Dispatches from Washington have indicated that the proposed $100,000,000 Indiana program will receive federal administration approval. Offices conducting the state's business are scattered in six other buildings around the Statehouse. If an office building should be constructed it probably would be in the same block with the new state library.

The 1935 legislature gave the department of public works power of eminent domain to condemn land for state uses. The state highway department, using more than half the present annex and a floor of a nearby office building, wishes new quarters. LOCAL MARKET Prices as of May 25.

Earl Peters, Indiana director of the Federal Housing Corporation, is here for conference with government officials relating to new regulations. With much satisfaction he was able to make a report of a construction improvement in Indiana. "There are now twenty-three Indiana counties with enough construction under way to provide employment for all building tradesmen." Peters commented. "More building is now under way than in any three years since the depression started. We are building our way back to prosperity.

More than has been spent in the repair of homes and buildings under Title 1 of the housing act and has been used in refinancing existing mortgages and in new construction. Indeed, 35 per cent of thin amount is for new building." Mr. Peters conferred today with Senators VanNuys and Minton and House members in advising them of the progress that is being made in Indiana in the way'of a building Duy a new Yi i iirrri 11Y11 1 1 ririrrirtii TRACTOR Dies at Hospital Here from Injuries Maurice Myers, a young farmer living a mile north of LaOtto on state road No. 3, met with a tragic death in an accident with a tractor Thursday morning. Maurice was riding the tractor in plowing a field east of the farm house.

His father, Dan Myers, was walking beside the tractor, holding one end of a rope that was tied to his son's arm. The rope was used to make measurements and was about ten feet long. The tractor was proceeding at considerable speed when the elder Myers encountered some elderberry bushes. He momentarily lost sight of his son. He felt a tug on the rope and found that the rope, having slackened, had been caught in a lug of the tractor wheel and had jerked Maurice from his seat.

The youth was whipped around the wheel and was run over by the wheel before his father managed to get the tractor stopped, nearly 100 feet distant. When the machine stopped, Maurice was fastened to the side of the wheel. His father loosened the rope and laid his unconscious son on the ground. He summoned help and the young man was removed to the Sacred Heart hospital in Garrett in the Geo. W.

Her ambulance. His lung was punctured, a jaw bone was broken and his head and face were mutilated. Maurice did not regain consciousness, dying at 11:15, two hours after the accident. The body was removed to the Her funeral home. The funeral will probably be held Sunday.

Maurice was born in Fort Wayne April 10, 1916, and the family moved to the farm north of LaOtto six years ago. Maurice was more than six feet in height and played center on the basketball team of LaOtto high school. He was graduated from the school only a month ago. He was a member of the Methodist church at Swan and attended the Sunday school. Surviving besides the parents are three brothers and a sister, Eugene, Betty, Samuel and Robert, all at home, and two half-sisters, Mrs.

Dorothy Stolzenberg of Buffalo, N. and Mrs. Virginia Owens of Niagara Falls. N. Y.

The body was taken from the Geo. W. Her funeral parlors to the home at LaOtto Friday evening and funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at the Huntertown M. E. church, with the pastor of the Avilla Methodist church, the Rev.

Thompson, officiating. Burial Avas made in the Huntertown cemetery. PUBLIC TO HEAR TWO STATE POLICE BROADCASTS DAILY Indianapolis. May 25. Al G.

Feeney, state director of public safety, announced yesterday that a plan has been completed whereby commercial radio stations in Indiana will devote two five-minute periods daily to broadcasting police news. Vital police news will be collected daily at state police headquarters from all city police radio systems in Indiana and surrounding states. The broadcasts probably will be around noon and in the early evening. Mr. Feeney said this will be another link in Indiana's radio program and will be a means of calling to the attention of the public ways in which they may co-operate with the police by being on the look-out for license numbers of wanted cars, suspicious persons, hijacked trucks, bank robbers and other criminals.

In these broadcasts the public will be advised and warned not to attempt to make arrests but to notify the nearest police department or sheriff's office. Bulletins will be compiled one hour before each broadcast period, put on the air by state police radio units, picked up by the radio stations through short-wave receivers tuned to the state police wave length, and put on the air at a designated time each day. Mr. Feeney said. FORMER BANKER AT FORT WAYNE GRANTED A PAROLE Indianapolis, May 24.

Final disposition of all attempts to revive the 1925 Indiana garnishee law had been made Friday by a decision of the state supreme court at Indianapolis. The court denied a rehearing in the appeal of several Lake county officials to validate the law. The court previously had ruled the law unconstitutional on the grounds that "it was against public morals." The decision came near the close of the 1935 legislature and precipitated a hurried attempt to enact another law to take its place.

A new law was not enacted, however.
