Scheerer, Inc., 35 East Wecker Drive Chicago 200 Eifth Avenue, New York TO AID GOOD ROADS: — The reorganization of the board of' the Indiana Highway and Motor Asso! ciaiton will be found to be of interest , and importance to all who are in sympathy with the good roads movement in Indiana and to those who believe the road problems can best be' solved without the active aid of political pie hunters. The association' is not new. having been in existence * since 1922. The new directors are substantial men. representing various parts of Indiana and numerous interests, both industrial and farming. The associa-l tion has no pet measures to foist on the public and no pets for whom office will be sought. It backed the ; existing gasoline fee law to create a < fund out of which highways could be i constiucte.l and it stands now, as it -i proniis, s to stand in the future, in > opposition to any ripper legislation j that would tend to disrupt the high- j way commission, place control of the roads and the large body of maintenance men elsewhere and thus give 1 sotne of the hungry horde an oppor-' i tuuity to construct a political ma-'i chine of first importance. i Earl Crawford, who has been made i secretary of the association, not only knows roads, but he knows the diffi-11 culties fa ed by the highway commis-l, sion He was a member of the com-1< mission for several years and there ' was a state-wide demand for his re- < appointment, but the Governor named ' another in his stead. Crawford brings to the association a vast amount of experience acquired in a practical school and his work should prove of great value to the organization. The fight on the part of seme politicians to gain control of the highway cum- , mtr iw ■NmMWMwm »r. min legislature to legislature. Doubtless i will break out again next winter, when the general assembly convenes. It is encouraging to know that a disinterested body, such as the Indiana Highway and Motor Association, is on guard and will be ready not only to block whatever efforts are made but to give support to the commission.— Indianapolis News. High tariff and unnecessary taxes as provided unde* republican administrations of state and nation will be the battle cry of the democrats in this years campaign and the keynotes delivered yesterday by Albert Stump and Evans Woollen, candidates for senator carried the issues squarely to the voters. These leaders believe that better times can be had and with less oveihead in the way of taxes, direct and indirect and that if the people really unders and the questions there - will be no doubt as to the November results. We “jay walked” across the street, diagonally from the court house and were promptly called by a farmer friend who reminded us of the new ordinance and thats right. Its a little difficult to obey all the regulations but we feel sure that eventually we will get in the habit of cutting the corners square. Any way w e intend to try for we believe that there must be iegulation of traffic and strict compliance it we are to solve the problem to the best advantage of all. The United States now has eleven thousand millionaires of which number Indiana has but eighty-nve. Twelve years ago there were but 4,606 men. in this who could boast of

having accumulated a million "smackies" so the number has almost trippier! during one decade. By the way these 11,000 citizens have more real power than all the rest of us together •• and don’t think they aren't using it. ■I | The state of Indiana has spent ’. seven million dollars the past two months, according to the report of I the state auditor. Since that is as l»1 5 much as it formerly cost to operate ) the state an entire year, it would be J interesting for the voters of the state > to know just how the money was J spent and why are we not entitled to | the information since it was our money that was spent? The republicans have just closed a school for orators with Senators Watson and Robinson as the professors. They started out with considerable "pep” but some of the students branched off to talking about the Coolidge administration and school I was quickly dismissed. Must be a .tough job to handle, even for the foxy Senator Jim. Tune up the old radio or get a new one. The season Is at hand when the air machine not only works best but I when the programs will -prove most . In'eresting. You can get the Demp- , rey-Tuney fight next week, the foot- ' ball games, the world series, election arguments, dope and returns, besides the varied musical programs and you will enjoy it a lot. Nows the time. William Upshaw, a crank on "helilire and damnation,” prohibition, censorship and moving pictures and a dozen other ideas was defeated in his Georgian district in his race for congress this week. He has ability but *he people sooq tire of cranks and faddists, especially if they have too many lines to shoot off on. The cool breezes which arrived yesterday seem to have checked the rains for a day or two at least and there is hope that the greater part bf the corn and beet crop can be saved. Any way we’re all hoping. 0 +♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦+ ♦ ♦ + TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY + + From the Daily Democrat File + ♦ Twenty Years Ago This Day. + + + +♦+♦♦♦++♦++♦♦♦++ September 10. —Rev Like preach 4 farewelk sermon of the y rar at U.

Ho was questioned closely at th* original investigation -when it was reported that he had wide knowledge of the scandalous gossip connecting the names of the pastor and Mrs. Mills, choir singer in the church. o —; sons will meet for insijection Friday evening Sept 10th.

One package of oats without that flavor may spoil your breakfasts for a week. The price you pay is the same. Thus "trying” a substitute is a folly. Quaker flavor is the result of some 50 years milling experience. No other oats has it. Quaker milling, too, re-tains-much of the "bulk” of oats. And that makes laxatives less often needed. Get Quick Quaker, which cooks in 3 to 5 minutes, or regular Quaker Oats as you have always known. Your grocer has both kinds. Quick Quaker
