Greetings which thrilled our hearts this morning: A national advertiser wired reservations for a full page advertisement next Wednesday. We talk about reducing taxes, then figure how an old age pension bill can be passed, build concrete roads, bigger and better schools I and colleges, get a job for everybody and in the long run just keep on paying taxes. Governor Leslie liml his first veto overriden in the house yesterday, when that body repassed the mortgage exemption bill, 20 to 26. The bill increases mortgage exemptions from SI,OOO to $1,300 and will have to be passed by the senate before it becomes a law-. The eity of Marion is about broke and it looks as if the officials over there might be forced to serve without Pay. Starting out on a prograjn to aid the unemployed, which is a fine thing to do if you can afford it, city funds were depleted and now there is no money to pay regular bills. A bi|J has been introduced in the state senate providing for the employing of four full time members on the state highway commission at six-thousand dollars per year. The argument of the sponsors is that apy body of men who spend more ..than $20,000,000 of public money a year should have year around jobs at good pay may be viewing the matter with good business judgment. A. W. Benham the "Midas” of Belvidere, Illinois, who started a ! scheme to pay 50 per cent, to persons who invested funds with him, has bden arrested. These Ponzi, get-rich-quick plans usually come to a sudden end with the public holding the sack and in the Illinois case it is doubtful if the so-called financial wizard can be prosecuted because of the fact that his notes called for usury rates of interest, making them invalid from the start. The United States senate, in an overtime session passed the wai veteran’s loan bill, 76 to 12. Under provisions of the measure veterans Congratulations are extended to Mr. and Mrs. William Drake o’ Union township and to Mr. and

Walter Myers, able and gracious speaker of the house of representatives, addressed the Democratic editors and their guests at the midwinter meeting of the Association held in Indianapolis last evening. Commanding the highest respect from everyone in the state on account of his sincerity and knowledge of affairs, Mr. Myers discussed national topics and pointed out the failures of the Hoover administration to cope with business conditions, unemployment and lack of I farm relief. American business has been taking stock. It did not need to be told that it must keep before the public, provide attractive and truthful information about its, wares and maintain an aggressive policy. It knew that the time had come to eliminate salesmanship that had brought doubtful returns.! In virtually all of the business re- ' alignments, exports in sales pro-| motion have ranked newspapers I' first. They have recommended [ that some forms of advertising be curtailed or abandoned, but have I agreed on the newspaper as the one medium through which all . classes of purchases might be I reached. Charles H. McMahon, a 1 Detroit banker, told the midwinter conference of tire trust division of , the American Bankers’ Association that "a financial advertiser has assurance that today he can reach i the literate population of any or all communities by advertising in the newspapers. You may not have i listened to a radio today, nor have 1 received any advertising by mail, 1 nor read any outdoor advertising. | but most of you will read the news-’ papers.” This is true of any business. People may travel less, they may curtail their reading matter ’ and they may practice economies, but they cling to their daily newspapers as the agency that keeps them in touch with the world, and they respond to the advertising that such newspapers carry. — Indianapolis News. • 7. — 4 i essons In Er dish I ♦— < Words often misused: Do not say "I shall not go without I have your I consent.’’ Say “unless J have.”

The South prison was so overcrowded that the warden found it necessary to place cots an beds in the coridors for the prisoners. A new wall also was needed, the report said, to replace the wooden fence which was rotting. One of the first moves toward a separate Insane hospital was made by the committee when It recommended that SIO,OOO be appropriated to each of the prisons for construction of such hospitals. — o WRAL CHURCHES Willshire Circuit —U.

INTRODUC ED AS O NEXT SENATOR FROM INDIANA (CONTINUED FROM PAGE oK’E) After briefly reviewing the acicomplishments of the Democratic ! party, Myers plunged Into an attack on the Hoover administration. "For 50 years the Republican politicians have sneered at the Democratic party and called it the party of panic and hard times," Myers stated. “That strident, boastful voice of the superiority complex is silent now. It cannot be denied that President Hoover is far more to blame for the panic of 1893, be--1931 than President Cleveland was to blame so rthe panic of 1893, because at least President Cleveland displayed leadership in getting the country hack to normally prosperous conditions, whereas President

Hoover liM demonstrated time and again that he is utterly lacking in leadership," he said. In speaking on taxes, Myers stated "there is only one way of reducing taxes and that is to spend less money. The reason for the rate being high is that the burden is not equalized. The payment of taxes Is evaded by too many who should, but do not pay. It la I’' l1 ’ lie character and not the law that has grown weak. "The real burden of taxation comes from what counties, cities taxing districts and townships spend. The remedy is in ourselves. The remedy will not come by try. ing to tax business out of existence.” Paul V. McNutt stated he was insterested solely "in the redemption of the state of Indiana, which will come only through the restoration of power of thei Democratic party, which he said was “rising from its ashes with renewed vigor to restore the government to the people themselves through application of Jeffersonian principles." “In 1932 we expect to have control also of the senate and will complete the work left by that growling and snarling majority which controls it now," he. stated amid applause. Gary and Terre Haute both extended invitations to the members for their mid-summer meeting. The Gary invitation was conveyed INFLUENZA SPREADING Check Colds at one; with 66ft Take it as a preventive.
