National Advertising Representatives SCHEERRE, INC. 36 East Wacker Drive, Chicago 416 Lexington Avenue, New York Charter Member The Indiana League of Home Dallies Well, any way, we have reached the point where we can blame things on the Smoot-Hawley tariff bill. The merchant who doesn't advertise his business right now is not only neglecting a duty he owes himself but is permitting his pessimism to get him down. Stay right with it boys and we will come through with flying colors. When things slow up a little for Mayor George Dale over at Muneie, that gent just starts something himself. Now he has fired two members of his board of works and when Dale fires ’em they stayfired. They are going to reorganize the Chicago police force and if you want to be a hero and fight the gangsters, you might apply. Don't all speak at once and remember that there is no guarantee that you w-ill get a salary after you have offered yourself as a target. An old fellow told us once that he had all the troubles in the world but most of them never happened. We stare 1 into the future and anticipate most of them but we arrive
there we are so busy thinking of some thing else that might happen that we don't realize it. Some of the professionals who hammered the stock market down have taken their profits and started. it up again so some more fish can get on the line. When they pump it up a few points they will start unloading again and away goes yours. What a foolish game. Berne is not permitting any thing to stop them and that's the proper spirit. The Chamber of Commerce held its regular meeting in the Lehman grove and it was in charge of the farmer members. We are told there was more good feeling and pep than for several years. That's the spirit. Heads up. The Indiana Democratic Editorial Association will hold their midsummer session in Bedford beginning tomorrow and continuing until Saturday evening. Its a big program and those who attend will enjoy every minute of the hospitality for which that southern Indiana city is noted.

f TODAY’S CHUCKLE 4 (U.R) 4 j Surbiton, Eng. — After two | rudto sets were stolen froiq a i local shop, the owner put a sign In the window stating that , I If the gentleman who took the sets fcrould forward his address, ’ | "we shall be glad to give him our übuul two years' guarantee I for both sets.'' ter all thats about us Important as any thing tliut we could have in this n>’ck of the woods. When we get out of the depression it will be because the farmers have some cash with which to pay their bills and do things. The census enumerators found but fifty-eight persons out of work in Decatur, a mighty small percentage of the more than 5,000 who call this home. We have been fortunate in having industries which have kept the wheels turning at least to some extent. Compared to any place we know f>(, this is still the best. Thomas D. Barr, Morris Stults and K. M. Kunkle, who have had charge of the bank situation for the state the past few days in Decatur will leave here with the highest regard of those with whom they have come in contact. They have been courteous, helpful and kind and have given what seems to us to be splendid advice. These jobs are difficult ones aud we are sure these men know their business. We are proud of our old friend Clarence L. Ayres, former Adams county boy, who left here thirty years ago and has won a fortune in D troit by his ability, hard work and perserverence. When he heard that his eld home town was in difficulties, he comes forthwith to offer any assistance within his power. Just what he can do we cannot state at this time but suffice to know that his heart is with us and that he is willing to back it up to the extent of his ability aud good judgment. He is a real man and friend worth while for any community. President Hoover has signed the m

new tariff bill. It went into effect last mldulght with several boats racing to beat it in. Just what good a higher tariff will do will have to be answered by some one smarter than any on*' we have hoard of. in the past there may have been times when a tariff law could help but Just now it looks like a foolish proceedure. Hut its the law and whether we like it or not we must put up with it for the good Lord knows we don't have to go through another eighteen months of congressional squabble while the wheels of industry slow up each day. All we can do is hope. ——— o w— — « « BIG FEATURES OF RADIO | i ♦ ♦ Wednesday’s 5 Best Radio Features Copyright 1930 by UP. WJZ (NBC network) 5:35 p. m. cst.—St. Regis-Lopez Music.

ceal whatever progress lias been i I made toward apprehending and in- | I dieting the slayer of slayers of the 1 l Tribune reporter. Police department activities In connection with the investigation were considerably slowed down, due to uncertainty as to who is to become permanent commissioner | of police. Deputy Commissioner 1 John R. Alcock, "Iron man." was acting in that capacity and it was rumored he would bo named by Mayor William Hale Thompson to succeed William It. Russell, who resigned under tire. Continued investigation of the department developed a proposal to cull before the city council police committee all captains ami deputy commissioners for an explanation as to how It has been possible for organized crime to become so powerful in Chicago. Tbs Tribune, in an editorial today, took cognizance of "rumors .. . regarding Mr. Dingle's relations with gangdom.” The editorial said in part: "It lias been said that he was, ill one fashion or other, an allv and that he was killed for violating in some manner the code of gangdom. “The Tribune does not know why its reporter was killed, it is engaged in finding out and expects
