We may have some winter but one thing is sure —it can’t last as long as it could if it had opened in November as it does some years. We have about two months of the. season back of us am! the rest of, it ought not seem so long. ————— The tornadoes are starting a j little early in the season and we • hope they don’t gain in violence as spring comes on. The first one of I the year was rather severe for the i time of year. They are having a tough time, selecting a committee to work out a program for a special session of I the legislature and no one seems to feel they will ever get together. : What one side wants the other dis-: tinctly does not and a compromise I looks impossible. Now is the time to pay your sub- I sciiption and we arc pleased that! so many are doing so each day. We I want to furnish you Hie news and ' ,we are sure you will be interested in reading it this year when so many things are scheduled to happen. Finish lhe job of securing the necessary beet acreage and then if there Is any thing we can do to assist Col. Gallagher in completing I arrangements to reopen the sugar I iactory here, lets all join in doing it. We know of nothing more important these days early in 1932. The people of this nation join witli President Hoover in his ex-1 pressions of deep appreciation for | long years of service of* Justice I Oliver Wendall Holmes of the Su- j preme Court of the United States. Judge Holmes has been one of the greatest jurists in the history of this country and has earned ills title ol' "Grand Old Man." Mrs. Hattie Caraway, widow of the late Thadeus Caraway, led her opponents 15 to 1 in the recent election there and becomes the first woman ever to be elected to the United States senate. Site has served by appointment since her husband's death and lias a record o’ wise action that seems to have pleased Min folks b cl: home. — ■ — Roads in Adams County are, in | excellent condition and we should | all try to keep them that way, re-1 nmniberhig the highway dep irtment! is limited as to funds for this year and that Superintendent. Eicher and his assistants will appreciate any r id given them in maintaining the road: with as little damage as possible. Its important for all of us. Members of the Indiana Democratic Ladb., Club hold a meeting in Indianapolis yesterday and the big dinner room at the Claypool hotel was crowded to capacity and it was necessary to take care of iZ —■<£> Perfection —ia not of thi’i life, but our ambition Is to g*ve it.

a part of the crowd in other rooms. The ladies were enthusiastic and there was a general feeling of optimism concerning the coming elec1 tion. Its in the air. J. A. Farrell, president of the t United States Steel Corporation, has resigned to “make room for 2 younger men." The past couple of J years has made a lot of old timers 5 take the count and as the reorganJ ization of business comes along > I there will be many changes. Far--1 rell drove himself from a day laborer to the high position he has held twenty years and amassed a fortune of millions. Only $3,300 was spent in this township last year, a wonderful record considering it was the toughest year ever known in this locality. Trustee Noll has attended to the duties of his office in an excellent way and has guarded the funds in his charge as carefully as this important task could be done. ( Other trustees of the county have n il done their duties in a manner I that deserves the commendation of their constituencies. ————— Railroad men are willing to take a cut in wages provided more work j is given them, which is fair enough j if the demand for more hours foli lows. While that may be conjectural it follows that the sooner I these adjustments are made, the .sooner business will reopen so that ! more hours will be required to take I care of it and the fact that this is being do n e without outbreaks, jstrikes and foolish actions speaks : well for both capitol and labor in this country. The Hoover-Mellon tax plan I seems to include about every thing they could dig up—higher income •taxes, estates, tobacco, realty transilers, stock transfers, automobiles and accessories, theater tickets, radios, phonographs, checks and dralts and a boost of postal rates. These are expected to produce about a pillion dollars in new taxes and all the old ones will continue. If that’s relief, the less of we get. the better we will all feel. Os course as long as we continue to •-pend money as we do with one out of every twelve on the pay roll, we must raise it some way but surely there would be easier methods and one of them would be to start reducing overhead. o Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two. • 4 1.

Both new ministers were under-! secretaries in the previous government. It appeared that the cabinet s foreign policy would be dominated by events in Germany, chiefly the recent statement of Chancellor I Heinrich Bruening that Germany ' can not resume reparations pay- ; ments.
