The late Congressman Vestal left an estate estimated conservatively at $75,000 which probably means that he was worth more than that. A few years ago that wouldn’t have seemed a great fortune but now it looks BIG. In the Literary Digest wet and dry poll the state of North Carolina, with a total vote of about 80.000 is wet by- nine votes which is so close it looks like it would take the official count to divide it. Kansas is still the only state voting dry. Efforts to secure the passage of an ordinance regulating transient pedlars and merchants are now being made here and the movement is desi rving of support. Other j < ities have this protection and there ; is no reason why if it works other places it would here. Van Wert and Huntington Red Cross organizations have each secured a car of flour from the national 'oigailiza toll ioi disi 1 ibutioii, i a splendid help in these needy limes. We presume this can bo done here if it is felt there is a demand for it. Local merchants are making a vigorous effort to get business, several conducting sales and all of tin m offering special inducements. Read their advertisements as they appear in this paper. These are important for they mean a saving of dollars for you. In Indianapolis more' than two hundred truck drivers have paid fines for using rhe 1931 license plates and it is said that is only a small percentage of the number still violating the law. Either these ought to be made to comply

with the law or those who have paid should have their money refunded. Fifteen years ago yesterday this country entered the World War. Things happened rather fast from then on for several years It didn't even cease with the armistice for business proceeded to go by leaps and bounds. We blew the old balloon up until it finally hursted and now we are paying for all the thrills. War is worse than Sherman described it. Governor Leslie so far lias not teen convinced that a special session of the legislature would bring any results except trouble. He wants to know what will be done and it sounds like good common sense for a lot of fellows have ideas that if enacted into law would be expensive and would not correct the present ills. There is danger that state legislatures will try to solve local difficulties by the same proceedure used by congress and we doubt if the people want that. Not the least interesting phase ol the movement against exorbitant taxation which is sweeping through the middle west is the flood of letters which taxpayers are addressing to lheir representatives and senators in Washington. That’s one way, and a good one, too. of informing the men who are responsible for appropriations how their constituents feel about paying the bilks for governmental waste, extravagance .and financial recklessness. The people back home are the ones that elect the officials, and if congressmen are not responsive to their wishes and will they will turn them out of office at the next election.— Richmond Paladium. There is a general feeling that j daylight saving time should not be I used here this year. Even most of those who favored it before now openly state that with conditions as they are they do not believe the early closing time should be used here. Whatever is necessary to do that should be done and with as j I .. .„. I little discussion as possime. i lie city council can repeal the law if they desire and while the attitude of most of the members, perhaps all of tlwm. is for that, some of them feel that since the plan was adopted by a vote three years ago it should be repealed by the same proceedure. There are objections to taking that vote in the coming primary since that is a county affair and not a city election and to hold one just for this purpose would entail considerable costs. Your ('pinions on this rather important question will gladly be published ■ it you will send them in.
