LIVELY DISCUSSION 0M Assertions by L. Chasey, secretary to povemor Harry O. Leslie, In an address at Marion Saturday that the members of the 1931 state legislature cave too much attention to drinking and too little to the matter ef lawmaklnr.

has precipitated a lively discussion smong members of the legislature. Chssey. who spoke at a meeting held under the suspiees of the Indiana Taxpayers Association, said, that the last session of the legislature was a "drunken orgy and that many of the legislators went to the general assembly to "get drunk and with little thought of why they were there. Chasey said Monday, on his return to the State house, that tie stood behind what he had said in the Marlon address. "That's what I said and I am going to stick to my guns." he said.

On the other hand, several legislators came forward with denial of unusual drinking at the session, some aaserting that they aawno drunkenness and others saying that the amount of drinking waa not greater than at previous sessions. Feint Oat Relief. While placing the blame for Increased taxes on the taxpayers themselves, Chasey assured hi listeners that relief would come only when the voters selected students of government and economics as their representatives In the legislature. Other speakers at the Marlon meeting included Harry Ml esse, secretary, and William Mints, dlrtrtct representative, respectively, of the Indiana Taxpayers' Association. Miesse praised the newspapers for their support of the association' program.

William Price, president cf the Casa County Farm Bureau, and B. B. Shively, Marion, forjner state senator, also spoke. In explaining the expenditure of public money. Chasey asserted that one out cf every seven persons received government money.

"We have reached the point where we want the government to do everything for us. yet we object when the hill presented." aaid Chasey. Chaaey's Statement. What seems to have aroused the Ire ef the legislators was Mr. Chasey' statement that: i "No one can deny that many of the legislators were more interested in drinking liquor and getting drunk thaa they were ta adopting measures that would tend to correct many evils.

Their attitude evidenced a distinctly greater interest in breaking laws than in making laws, and the results showed it." Ueutenant Oovernor Edgar D. Bush. who presided over the senate, said he thought that the criticisms were both and unfair." Bush, who first entered the lejisiature In 1911. the year the original prohibition law was passed, remembered having seen a little drinking each session, but could not believe there was any more In 1931 than in 1923. Bush criticised Governor Leslie and Chasey for net lending more support to the tax reform prorram ef the tax survey commission.

Chasey. la his Marlon address, had averred that the legislator ignored the tax survey group's recommendations. Bush said that "things would have been differ ent if we had support from flown stair." Members ot the house of representatives were a "sober and cJean think tng group, attested Walter Myers, Indiana polia, who waa Speaker in that branch of the 1931 general assembly.
