In some quarters a White House conference is expected today or tomorrow.

Indianapolis, Feb. 18 administration bill, legalizing the sale of hard liquor by the drink, was introduced in the house of the Indiana General Assembly today. It reduces the tax on whisky, gin and the like from twenty- five cents a pipt to twelve and one-half cents a pint. The tax on beer is'sliced from five cents a gallon to three and a third cents a gallon. Wine tax is reduced from fifty cents a gallon to twenty-five cents a gallon.

The measure abolishes road houses and rural night clubs, does away with the beer import- er system, and removes the monopolistic wholesaler system of beer distribution. It also creates a bi-partisan commission of three members, with broad powers to issue and revoke licenses and promulgate rules. The bill fixed closing hours of places selling alcoholic beverages or hard drinks according to population. In cities of more than 30,000 population, the closing hour will be one a.
