S This country is, and has been for some • time past, in the soundest economical coni' dition of any country in the world. ■ Nothing can effectually stem the course ® of her progress. Neither doubt nor pessiE mism can cloud the evidence of vitality which ■ shines through at this time. g The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) does not presume to prophecy. Unfortunately ■ there have been too many prophets and ■ too few patrons of business during the past ■ nine months. ■ This company comes forward with direct K and tangible evidence that industry is h quickening to the new season — rousing IE itself to action. E The industrial lubrication department of ■ this organization reflects this activity. ■ Manufacturing plants that were previously g inactive have recently placed orders for in- | dustrial lubricants. More and more concerns | which were running along at average capacB ity, now increase their orders for lubricants. ® Happily, this condition cannot be isolated, g If orders for lubricants are being placed, S then orders for other commodities are being S placed with other concerns. That means £ more capital is being spent. g Mark the significance of this news. g It is an accurate index. It indicates that ■ business has ploughed through the worst K of the period of depression. | It is time to push. It is time for industry, e in general, to mobilize its forces. It is time | for every man and woman in America g t 0 squarely to the solid structure of K. country, and not at the shifting fogs which doubt and pessimism create. >s time to spend —time to buy.

DETROIT WILL DO MAY WITH SPEED LIMITS New Traffic Ordinance Substitutes “Sanity for Technicality” Detroit, Oct. It ,'U.Rj— A new traffic ordnance abolishing arbitrary speed limits, and otherwise I substituting "sanity for technicality" in the regulation of traffic, is to be adopted by th- Detroit city council. The measure was drawn up by a traffic court magistrate. Judge Sherman 0 Cullender; the city's assistant corporation counsel, Nathaniel D. Gollstick; and one member of the council, George A. Walters. They have been battling the old Haff c code for ove a year. The chief provision of the new cod is the abolition of the 15 to |2O mile p r-hour speed limit. The | limit o; safety Is left to the discre- ! iion of the judge, who is instruct|ed to consider the degree of pru- 1 I dene and efficiency with which | the motorist in question was hanj ding his car. "Any person driving a vehicle on a highway," the ordinance reads, "shall drive the same at a careful | and prudent speed not greater nor less than ir toasunable and proper, I having due regard to the traffic, I sin far.? and width cf the highway, | and of any other conditions then xlstirg, and no person shall drive i ny vehicle upon a highway at a I peed greater than will permit him |to bring it to a stop within the I assured char distance ahead.” The city council had long been 1 apathetic toward agitation for a new traffic code, ft was only when Judge Callender refused to sen tence speeders under the city code and began fining them under the more liberal state law, that the council was stirred to action.

OLD CAMPAIGN METHODS GIVE WAY TO NEW Radio and “Canned Publicity” Supersede Orator’s Forum By Hurry W. Frantz, UP Stuff Correspondent Washington, Oct. 14. -(U.R)--High-power salesmanship by invisible salesmen is a feature of the political technique In the national congressional campaign of 1930. The radio, the follow-up letter, anil the "canned" publicity of professional writers have largely supetseded the orators' forum, the personal appeal, and the independent editorial opinion. The earnest candidate now has to worry about static and the possibility that his addr ss may not be concluded within the allotted t’me, between a jazz concert and the bed-time story, instead of hecklers. Instead of going to the factories and shaking hands with workers, a candidate now may call in his stenographer and statistician, and dictate a tabular statement to be issued to a mailing-list of 100.000 provided by a special bureau. From the standpoint of its methods, the campaign is not withcut merit. A senator can address a home town crowd by telephone and radio broadcast without leaving the capital. He can make declarations without risking the ardors of 'a debate. Tire radio listener, in tuin, can turn the dial and remove himself from the realm of farm surpluses to the perhaps more talk of a beauty specialist. Sales Technique Behind it all is the fact that rival parties are making a prodigious effort, aided by modern sales technique, to sway the nation's

mass mind. How far this technique is adapted to politics remains to be demonstrated. Some of the candidates are not "gold” on the newer political technique. Baby-kissing, handshaking, and od-fashloned appeals for “the home" still have a timely importannte In many district*. But the big political operators are thinking in terms of national "hookups” arid 100,000-copy pamphlets. TEXAS SOLONS CUT MARRIAGES Austin, Tex., Oct. It. — (U.R) When the Texas I'gislators enacta law requiring three days notice of nrartiage intentions, they didn’t realize the bashfulness of Texas' swains. Results show that the law cut down marriages ove r 17 per cent. How many evaded publication by going to other states is not revealed but official figures gathered by the U. S. Department of Commerce disclose that th- weddings perform'd inside the state dropped off 13,167 during 1929, compared with 1928. The law requiring marriage notice before issuance of a license, became effective on June 12. 1929. so the decrease represents only half a year. Despite the law’ there were 63,173 marriages. If publicity is thus decreasing marriages some of the solons may turn to it as a means to decrease divorce for while marriage was decreasing divorces increased from 18,073 in 1928 to 18,386. The rapid gain of divorce in proportion to marriage is indicated by (mIEm-Ts LaUieai Ask yow Druccim /\ ZCSa for 'JM-shes-ters Diamond/Qk\ Rrwnd Pills in Red and ttoJd(O) boi«s, sealed with BlueVT/ Tske no other.
