Chicago ' 115 Lexington Avenue, New York ( ■f Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies, It you plan to send Christmas gifts to a far distance like Washington, California or other outlying states you should get them in tire mails by the 14th and that’s not far off. Congress is going to try to dispose of the prohibition question it is claimed. That ought to be easy. All' they have to do is to find a proposition that both wets and drys will agree to. The first big crash among the r, JI roads came yesterday when the W|bash went into receivership. Tfis is the first large company of its kindJLo crumble under the depression and may be the beginning <-fa series of serious failures. 12 , —— •Your dollars will go farther in D#atur next Saturday than any wjjere you can find and the stores aijs filled with the finest goods and the latest styles. Remember too, that when you patronize your home merchant you have back of your pig-chase a guarantee that will be ' kfi>t. ___________ The Democrats elect another con- > gressman in New Jersey as they I seem to do pi about every election I held these days. The signs are certtjjnly pointing to a victory next ; year which is the greater reason wMy every care should be taken to select the best men on the platform 1 list will mean most to the country 'vigen carried out. —— yiie Indiana “bone dry’’ law which was supposed to be so tight tlyt it would not permit an ounce of any thing intoxicating to pass through does not, it is now dis- I < overed present tonics containing ' as much as 22% alcohol being Itfally sold. Looks as though it I ji>t can’t be done. As fast as - lajjis ire made to stop the traffic I s«ne slick individual comes along with q plan to beat it. iamjes Patchell, president of the National Postmaster’s Association j • fd Edward Gallmeyer, postmaster! as Fort Wayne, who were principal shakers at the banquet following the dedication of the new post office building here gave excellent talks. providing information as to the big business of handling the mail of this country and of civic duties. It was a splendid event and enjoyed by the many who attended. Free Test Rescues You From BILIOUS ATTACKS All you want is* relief, and here it is. Permanent prevention, too! Dare’s Mentha Pepsin positively stops the pain in 10 minutes — stops the nausea—stops the dizzi- i nass. Puts you back on your keel in less time than it takes to tell itr-or the test costs you nothing for Cutshall’g Cut Rate Drug Store will refund your money. The same dose before meals—two tablespoonfuls — swiftly corrects the trouble in stomach and bowels that is making you “bilious." Your escape from the torture of bilious headaches is permanent. Cutshall. a druggist whom you know and trust, guarantees Dare’s Mentha Pepsin. He gives you his word that If It does not bring you quick, lasting relief, he won’t keep a cent of the money you paid for j it. |

Next Saturday is Santa Claus day and all the children will enjoy watching the old boy as he drives about town in his sled drawn by eight dogs from the off frozen north. While he is entertaining the youngsters, the parents and I older folks can profit by visiting ;the Decatur stores where they will ■ find hundreds of bargains suitable I for this season of the year and for ,the Christmas season. Don’t over- | look Saturday in Decatur. The murder trial is nearing comI pletlon and within a few days 1 Joseph Everett will know his fate.; ; The trial has provided interest for I hundreds who have filled the court | room at each session and it has' 1 been a real law suit, contested I ! every inch of the way by the able : attorneys on each side. The jury, I carefully selected, includes twelve j of the best citizens of the county I and their verdict will be accepted I by the people of this community , as one based upon their best judgment. ■ i, Congress will convene next week 1 at which time will start the regtt-' lar proceedure of tax increases. I political log rolling, tariff revision talk without any revision, a lot of! farm relief bunk, some prohibition arguments but probably with little accomplished that will help. Muscle Shoals will be booted around all over the place, cash bonus pay- ‘ ments will be talked about, but ac-i cording to experts, hasn’t a chance, the world court seems doomed and it will be just a lot of talk, accord-' ing to the wise ones who have al- J ready looked the possibilities over.! It is now pretty well settled! among the republican leaders that j there must be a tax boost, says David Mcßride. Senator Watson has capitulated to the scheme, and Chairman Smoot of the Senate (finance committee is convinced that more money will have to be | raised. This means that the adI ministration will go gunning for . big stakes to help take care of Andy’s growing deficit in the treasjury department, where fear is ex-' (pressed that the end of the fiscal (year will see a deficit of $2,000,000,-, . 000. The deficit last year was ‘ I $903,000,000. Borrowings will not I take care of this huge sum; there must be additional revenue from i people who can be nicked for it. ! Mr. Smoot indicated that most of (the burden will have to be borne by those with large incomes. Just what form the tax will take is not I known. Smoot and Watson think i it should be a sales tax. but both are doubtful that such a bill could get through congress. • * TWENTY YEARS * AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File December 3. 1911 was Sunday. • I -- KOLSTER I NTE RNATIONAL I?

JAPAN FORCES CEASE MARCH (CONTINUED FKuit PAGE ONE' ‘ i era. : "The Chinese must cease their anti-Japanese campaign, including the boycot, and allow Manchuria ' to live and let live. Japan natural- , ly would be stronger if she had a I friendly neighbor, instead of a hos- | tile Manchuria.” Emphasizing that he was express- >, ing only his personal views, Honja continued: "Japan’s policy seeks the re-es- i tablishment o:’ peace and ord r in I ’ Manchuria under able Chinese leaders offering equal opportunities in trade and commerce to all countries. I do not believe Japan will ever seek an economic monopoly • in Manchuria. "Moreover, I am convinced that a technical developed and progressive Manchuria would be a bulwark I against destructive influences from i China and Russia. "I want to get the Japanese boys home before New Year’s but the fulfillment of that wish depends on whether the Chinese abandon their menacing activities,” he said with a smile. Japan, Honlo said, wishes the l Chinese to retire immediately behind th > great wall in China proper. The mustached, bespectacled 1 Japanese General talked to me for an hour. He spoke vigorously and I seemed sincerely eager to create an understanding of Japan's motives in her Manchurian operations. Occasionally he interrupted the conversation to give orders to atteen- ( live under-officers. i Honjo's room was of the plainest I - -

kind and only half-furnished, a sabre leaned against a hat rack. His uniform was bare of decorations. A vase of artificial roses was the only ormament in the room. A veteran of the Russo-Japanese war and of the Siberian exp?ditlon in 1918 he professes to abhor war. He pays daily religious visits to a Japanese hrine and plays for peace. He has taught his children to write lown the names of the Japanese soldiers killed in the Manchurian fighting. His officers appeared devouted to him. o DEPRESSION IS DISCUSSED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) th? most vital social and economic problem, x’e have fairly creditably solved every other segment of our credit structure mure effectively than we have solved this one.” The presid nt spent two months thinking over his speech and preparing for its delivery to that audience. Home ownership, he has reiterated time and again, is one ol the things closest to his heart. The conference he addressed is known as "The President’s Conference on home building and home ownership It was his own idea and he pleaded that something practical conid out of it.
