The South Bend Chamber of Com tnerce has adopted a resolution und forwarded it to President Hoover, that the national department • of commerce be slashed to the limit as an economy move. That's tine • and while at It they could slash a lot of other departments without Injuring the general happiness of I i , the people of this country, in our i humble opinion. It takes a good | sized waste basket to take care i of the undesired and unread mail ! received by the average business man each morniug. Certainly it i costs money. Thurman Gottschalk will open i headquarters here this week and I from now until the May primarv. his friends will be busy at vole making. Mr. Gottschalk has had many years legislative experience and it is acknowledged is splendidly qualified for the position he seeks. According to reports he is receiving encouragement from all over the district and there is no , doubt that he will receive a large vote. It is the desire of those interested in sending him to congress to secure the lead for him in the race and then increase it. The public is of course cordially invited to drop into his headquarters i here or at Berne and to assist in I the fight. — , speaker John Garner left his I chair yesterday to speak before 1 the house of congress and the result was a plea for some form of tax bill that will raise sufficient i funds to maintain the credit of the I Country. He made the rather slartl- i I ing statement that if congress ■ j should adjourn without providing , I against a treasury deficit, every bank in the country would close its doors and this country .suffer [the worst panic ever known. Cer- ( | tainly if conditions are that serious, i and they are or John Garner, one r of our wisest statesmen, would not have said so, it is up to congress to act and quickly and its up to every one to support them for doing so. The wonder is that some one hasn't Ireeotne excited before ' this. It plight have saved us a lot t lot troubles. t Modern Etiquette —by— ROBERTA LEE Q.
