INC. 35 East Wacker Drive, Chicago 415 Lexington Avenue, New York Charter Member The Indiana League of Home Dallies Another strenous holiday Is over and those of us who escaped with whole bodies and unburnt fingers have something to be joytul over. The crops are still growing and harvest has started. It won’t be long now until things will pick up for after all the only new production is that from the soil. Work on the state roads in this section stems to be moving along and one of these days the hard surface highways entirely through this county both ways will be ready for you. And thats something. Mr. Babson says the only hope for the new tariff law is its flexibility. In other words they expect the president to shake out of it the bad things and put in a few that will help. Thats some law. o times are bad in your town make them good by doing big things. Some one said that and its good to repeat. It takes a crisis to show how big the folks are and we claim they are real here. The fire cracker season is over and those who have nerves which are easily jarred are glad of it. Now that the noise making is done lets all get down to brass tacks and do some business. The Hunter boys have been sailing high the past three weeks and with a quarter of a million to start with they can keep on going comfortably for some time it would seem. A Chicago sword swallower choked .on a thin dime and had to undergo an operation at a hospital which makes us doubt seriously that he ever really swallowed a sword. .Start next week off with a display advertisement in the Daily Democrat. It wil help you and us and every one else and If we all h-lp tach other a little we will have something to celebrate when Thanksgiving Day rolls around. Mr. Coolidge is saying some mijjity fine tilings in his articles and we believe they will help but several million men out of work are perhaps more interested ir. wlwre they can get a job now than they are in what kind of a harp they will play after a while. Several Decatur plants are plannlpg two-week shut downs so that employees may enjoy vacations. Tltfs can be done easily because the orders are not so rushing this year and thats much better than laying off a part or closing down Indefinitely. Fill the larder and the fuel bins and get ready tor next winter. Don’t wait until the snow is flying. Thats too late. You can secure the necessary articles for less money iw.w and spread the expense over the next three or four months if yon make up your mind. In the old days thats what every one tried to .do.

Got ; busy, put some one to work, keep [ your men going if #ou can. pay i your bills, remember that money ' out of circulation is one of the ' chief ills of the nation today. "Do it now." The banking situation here seems to have reached the stage where some real thinking and some real effort must be made and that is what is occurring. When plans have been completed announcements wil) be made and until then there is nothing to do but wait with patience. If we could make an earnest organization composed of substantial, desiring citizens to give relief to the farmers and others of this trading radius we could perform some things that would advance us several years over other communities. There are a number of things that could be done easily but they require some effort and time. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Congress is no more than over than we have another special act. The senate will convene Monday to discuss and cuss and the proposed London naval treaty. If they pass it we are in for some trials and tribulations, the wise ones tell us and if we don't, the president will he broken hearted. What are the poor senators to do? Peach growers out in California are planning to permit forty per cent of the crop rot so that the price may be held up. That looks rather foolish. We fail to see why they can't take a forty per cent Hess -price and thus make it possible for the consumer to benefit from the unusual crop. They would get just as much money and even though it would require some extra effort it would be worth it to cooperate in these days. Congress has taken a rest, much needed for the country. We can’t help but feel that the country would have been better off if they had not started some sixteen months ago. About the only thing they can point to is a tariff law that is far from being popular and so far hasn't proven to be of good to a single one of the hundred and twenty million people. Probably it will in time bring some profit to a few but in the meantime you are paying the tax that will be distributed. A Marion county grand jury finds that there was corruption in the recent primaries held there, but fail to return indictments because they claim they did not have the. money to secure the evidence. If they found enough to make such a report we fail to see why they couldn't have secured a nickels worth of legal cap paper and a pennys worth of ink and brought in the indictments. We will never stop these practises by scolding for the boys who do it are too tough to pay much attention to the 'naughty boy" stuff. Wheat at about sixty-five cents and other grain and farm products in comparison. What do you sup- ( pose the average farmer is think--1 lug of noble experiments, commissions and one thing and another through which we seem to be drifts ing from bad to worse? If there is . a farm relief board and there Is any thing they can do to make e prices some where near what is y necessary to make the agriculturist r receive at least days wages for his f efforts of the past several months, j in Heaven's name, they ought to 0 get busy.

BROTHERS RISE TO WORLD FAME THROUGH FLIGHT nettled easily, stopping at the west end of the field. The crowd Immedlately twame riotous, crushed way through tha police lines and boro down upon the oil emearod D I an p Orders were given to the Hunters to taxi the plane to the hangar, and with much difficulty, police cleared a lane for Its passage. John, the youngest of the Hunters, was the first to emerge from the ship. He was smeared with oil from head to foot, was holloweyed and a bit unsteady, and a cut over his eye showed distinctly. The cut was received several days ago when an oil can fell on him as he was sleeping. Inside the hangar, the boys gave short radio talks, then they were whisked through the crowd and were taken to a downtown hotel. Tlie fliers themselves were not the only onee of the family who were glad the record smashing flight had ended. Mrs. Ida Hunter. their mother, had been wishing for several days they would come down and so had Irene, their school teacher sister, who supervised the cooking of all their meals up until the last day. Probably the proudest woman in the world, Mrs. Hunter also had been one of the most worried, fearing, she said, that her boys were hurting themselves by staying up too long. Irene, too, was almost exhausted from the long grind. There was one thing, however, that made Kenneth, who is just 21, wish he still wae up in the air. That was the crowd, the newspapermen, and the cameramen. A modest youth, who for 23 days had been even more removed from the world of people than in the days when he dug coal in the pits of southern Illinois, Kenneth felt a bit lost among the milling, shouting, crowd that was acclaiming him a hero of heroes. Wiping his face with a piece of waste as he chatted to the United Press correspondent, John explained why they had come down. “The motor was beginning to freeze,” he said. “The oil screen became clogged and we could not clean it. For the last three days it has been pretty tough going.” Almost unnoticed, the City of Chicago took off at 4:40, CDT, June 11. It had been up a week
