THE ROAD TO PROSPERITY When every man in this county has n job. is earning a living wage, and , when every farmer is able to market ( his crop at a fair price, then and not before is national prosperity arrived. Money in the government vaults , does not constitute national prosper- ; ity. Ask the out-of-work veteran if it ( does. If it did then the United States j is the happiest, as it is the richest, ( land in the world. It can be both, but , that possibility depends not on the , contents of the United States treasury , but on the condition of the larders in | every home in America. Common in- , dividual prosperity and nothing else (i is the condition of national pros- , purity. There is one thing, and only one ! thing, on which this country has to ; fix its attention to produce the desired • ■ condition. Foreign commerce is the '; answer —although he doesn't know it : —to the man who knocked at your 1 door and asked for work. It is the ] one supreme business of the United < States at this moment. The United States today has thep highest developed industrial machin- I ery in the world; its factories ares keyed up to a maximum capacity as a result of the feverish war. There is I a margin of 20 per cent of this production which the country itself cannot consume; a market must be found for it. That 20 per cent represents 11 jobs, and is the symbol of national * prosperity. If that market cannot be wiped out by overseas sales then thej jobs cannot exist; if commerce can market that surplus, the jobs are available. This great problem and its immediate solution is to be focused in the Ninth Foreign Trade Convention which will be held in Philadelphia in . May. Its purpose is to get the ear of the whole people to the importance | ( of the crisis, and to get the benefit of the highest experience at that conven-j tion as a basis for a constructive pro-. gram looking to the establishment and < extension of this country's foreign commerce. John W. Tyndall should receive a Unanimous vote in Adams county. We; have had few candidates for that of- . lice and we deserve the recognition especially when such a man as Tyn dal iss before the voters. He has no t personal desires and if he is sent to,* congress he will represent all the ' people all the time. We should see:, that he is nominated in the May pri- ■ ]

marie* and we should help to elect him next November. Don’t feel it ia a sure thing. There are two other candidates and unless some eKort is made cither may be elected. It's time the good democrats of this county got busy. While no positive assurance is given that we will secure the Yeomen home, wo have, from what information has been obtained an equal chance with any other city In the country and we should make an honest and sincere effort to land this institution which would Indeed be a most wonderful achievement. At least the get-togeth-er movement will help us for we will prove to the world as well as to ourselves that we are a united community, with the proper steam and pep to do things. You can help your community by attending the mass meeting to be held next Monday evening at the gynt. Few men in Indiana have had a more spectacular career than the late Ben Boose, mayor of Evansville. He wont to that city when fourteen years old, penniless, uneducated and without friends. By his own capacity for work and his ability as a business organizer he amassed a fortune of millions in a few years, became a political leader of state prominence and had the credit for being the most public spirited executive in any city of the middle west Admitting the wrongs done to the miners it would be interesting to know just where they expected to gain by the present strike. There is a ninety day imply of coal on hand and the price is low. The strike will stabilize the price, create a shortage and make it easy for the operator. The miner will go back to work one of these days none the richer and probably none the better off while the rich operator will smile at his good turn of fortune. !’r- sident Lewis of the United Mine A'orkers wants government control of | the coal mines. He apeared before! he congressional committe yesterday | and made that recommendation. His i proposition was of course coldly received but it caused some to think per-1 haps the strike will be a long drawn out affair and that the miners really intend to hold out until some such an arrangement is made. Mr. Beveridge insists there are a rood many arguments produced by him I which Senator New failed to answer in that ten minutes radio speech and he is quite right. He might also add that those pointed questions he has asked will not be answered by the senator either by telephone or direct. o— — SEE GRACE LA RUE IN “DEAR ME" AT MAJESTIC Grace Ra Rue, who come to the Majestic Theater, Ft.

SHOWS DECREASE - Report from Bureau of Census Says Mortality from Typhoid Fever IS GROWING LESS | f South Carolina Leads in Deaths With 22.4 Per Cent—A Good Report. Washington, D. C., April 5. —(Special to Daily Democrat) —The Department of Commerce through the Bureau of the Census, announces lower mortality rates from typhoid fever in recent years. The amount typhoid fever in a community is recognized as one of the best indexes of its hcalthfulness. So also the mortality rate from this cause is a very important sanitory index. The steady decreasing motality rate from typhoid fever is therefore most gratifying, a decrease in the registration states of 1916 from 13.3 per 100,000 population in 1916 to 7 in 1920. In 1920 of the state in the registration area Massachusetts and Wisconsin share the honor of having the lowest rate (2.5) while the highest (22.4) appears for South Carolina. Os the eleven states showing rates by color, the lowest rate for the white population was 3.6 and the lowest for the colored was 4.6, both for Now York State, while the highest rate for the white population was 19.1 for Kentucky and that for the colored was 30.2 for the same state. Os the 33 states shown for 1919 and 1920 in the table below only 9 show higher rates in 1920 than in 1919, namely: State 1920 1919 Colorado 9.2 8.5 Connecticut 4.1 4.0 Kansas 8.0 7.3 Maine 9.0 5.7 Michigan 7.9 7.6 New Hampshire 6.8 3.4 New Jersey 3.3 3.2 Vermont 10.5 3.1 Washington 5.6 4.2 o — BAPTIST WOMEN WILL ATTEND CONFERENCE The womdn of the Salamonia Baptist association will hold an intpprtant missionary conference Thursday, April 6th at the First Baptist church, Warren, Indiana.

"I fed ’em bananas and hard-boiled eggs," said Galpin, “and not one of 'em lost a single heavenly feather." “And on the other hand,” he added, "I had a couple of Tasmanian devils aboard, and they wouldn't touch a thing the whole trip except floating island.” , DOSE OF HIS OWN MEDICINE German Submarine Commander Who Bank Lusitania Also Now at Bottom of Sea. The commander of the German submarine that sank the Lusitania Is now at the bottom of the sea. according to a story which has reached American Legion headquarters. Flogged and flung over- the side of a Paraguan war vessel, he met death with a dose of his own medicine. The story is that the commander, fleeing from allied justice, took refuge in Paraguay, where he at once took i out naturalization papers and swore allegiance to the Paraguan republic. Friends in the shipping world secured for him the command of a Paraguan man-o’-war, the Adolph Riquelmi. He had hardly set his heel upon the decks when be inaugurated the rules w’hich had been his custom. The crew, with j their Latin blood, could not stemach the diet as the stolid Teutons had done in the old days. So they passed | him around for a beating, and then threw him into the sea, far from sight of land. HAD THE “THEODORA” ODOR Fancy French Pets Saturated With Unwelcome Perfume of Marahal Foch'e American MaacoL Ftfjy thousand francs’ worth of pet dogs were temporarily ruined by Marshal Foch'e wild cat on the voyage to , Fiance. When the marahal, as guest ' of the American Legion, had picked up Theodora from an admiring friend, he had little reckoned what devastation was in store. Theodora was placed in the kennel room atop the liner Paris, under care of the ship's butcher, who acted as animal valet for the trip. Believing that the fluffy Pekinese, and poodles, and Mexican hairlesses that shared her compartment did not represent, like herself, the true red-blooded pioneering spirit of America, Theodora lay quietly in her cell and exuded the aroma peculiar to wildcats. When the Paris touched the shores of France, the valet handed the pet dogs around to the group of daintily-scented madamolaellea and was greeted with loud shrieks. Parachute In Shell.
