Chicago 300 Filth Avenue, New York Charter Member The Indiana league of Home Dallies -The state accounts have completed their job of going over the books of imnty and city officials here, reports allowing a clean slate. Every officer has been honest and efficient and we are proud ot their records. A half million dollar Increase in Valuations for taxing purposes, due to new improvements over Adams county, is a splendid sign of our progress. Os this amount Decatur and Washington township showed a gain Os 3300.000. Hope it continues to soar for every increase of value means much to the community. The weekend toll of I ves in Indiana was six almost before it got a good start, that number being reported by Saturday noon. Drownings and automobile accidents of various sort continue to lead the list of violent deaths which was again large over the Saturday and Sunday holiday period. The new bus line through this city, connecting Columbus, Ohio, with Fort Wayne, Chicago and other cities, means another important link in our traffic system. It is predicted that in the years to come these lines will be an imporiant part of transportation and this one passing through one of the best trading sections in the middle west will aid those cities it reaches. Frenchmen and Polish airmen started a race across the Atlantic Saturday but didn't get far. The French plane landed near the Azores while the Polish airmen were calling for help just a little farther out from the same island. It seems to be a tough job to cross the seas in this direction but trials will continue until some one is lucky enough or wise enough to succeed. Now for farm relief. The new commission met today. We realize their job is a hard one hut we realize also that the job of the farmers has been much more difficult the past several years and they are anxious for some definite steps that will bring better prices for their products. They are not in the humor to stand for any unnecessary delays. The board is composed of high grade men and the public will be as reasonable as could be expected but there must be action and plenty of it. Indiana stale officials are now trying to decide; whether or not to make a tax increase larger than necessary so they can reduce it next year for political purposes or to make It as little each year as they can. The fact remains that they could have cut off a lot of the overhead in the last legislature if they had so desired but they didn't and in one way or another at some time we will have to pay the fiddler. We pay dearly for our polities. The two men who broke the world record for endurance in the air in California recently are already on the vakdovlll# stape with a three months toir ibead of them. 4 Looks as though I the stunts that are being pulled are. more for that purpose than any other. Any one who can do something sensational. get their names on the front pages a few times, can get a high figure contract with some show company or in pictures and the public pays, foolishly perhaps but they seem

We believe the officials here do everything they can to enforce the traffic laws. Remember its a very difficult thing to do when so many people insist on violating the ordinances. There is no desire to embarress any one but it begins to look as though it will be necessary. A number of drivers are again violating the stop sign orders, operating their cars carelessly and with noise making devices, to the inconvlence and displeasure of many who complain about it. It you are arrested you can certainly blame no one but yourselves. It has taken several years to secure the east and west highway, but the state commission finally came through and we are very grateful. Official announcement has been made that road sixteen from the state line through Decatur to Huntington has been taken over and that the road from here east will be paved this fall or in the early spring, while the road from here to Huntington will be maintained by the state, the work starting immediately. This is splendid news for it means in a few years that this will be one of the important thoroughfares through the middle west. It is a part of the Franklin highway system, extending from Atlantic City to San Francisco, shortest and safest trans-continental highway. With No. 27 running north and south and No. 16 east and west, this city will be well taken care of in the state road system. MODERN ETIQUETTE By ROBERTA LEE Q.
