The sun is going to shine one ol these days. The depression seems to have helped the ba lelt.'U < row Is. ■ sp< < , hilly in the larger cities where the | crowds so far this year have brok ! in all records. And now we have lo go through I the tornado season and the way in | which lb.- < rooked winds have i started, it looks like any thing but ' a pleasant experience. Some fellow smart enough to) dope oui yome method wherebythis country can get out of the adversity slump we have been in the pa. t three years could sail ini to the President - ! chai, like nobody’s bu-'iness. County Treasurer Wechter is anxious to rvc he public to the very host of his ability and ha- ar ranged for his office to be open this week from eight in the morning until five in the evening, without closing for the noon hour. This I is the last week for tax paying. Ihe annual cleanup of the city began this morning when the ; trucks slarted out lo cover every! street and alley. It will take alii week to haul away lh« <ms and rubbish, a big job but one that ought to he ful’y appreciated and I we believe is. Franklin D. Roosevelt is trying out his strong h again todij. this t'mc in the roekribbed old Repub-1 limn state of Pennsylvania. It is I predicted by many that if he wins there over the Smith slate of dele-1 gates, his nomination for President I on the Democratic ticket is assur- ■ id It might bo easy to print some i new money witlf which to pay the | bonus but «o soldier w al. that if j it in any way weakens the currency ot the United Stalos In the long tun that would he a serious thing •-ven if it helped temporarily. At hast that i the opinion of some of the best minds in the country. Varfou. candidates are giving their messages through the columns of Illis m w paper this week and they arc import int for they put lln men on record in uch a*av |

I that you can easily understand them. Read these carefully They I will help you to make up your mind how you will vote. Judge Erwin’s opinion regarding the rights of the tax payers of any . given, district to spend their own ; money without Interference by the state tax board seems sound. He , has held that the state board has i io Jurisdiction in a pase where the 1 construction of the road did not . increase the taxes of the township. The decision was rendered in the I J Htiser road case and if the cause is appea'ed to the supreme court, the results will be of interest over the entire state. Congressmen and senators nriy ; well make up their minds they will have to get off the high horse i f tio limit expense. Just now the newspaper reporters are riding il.i’Ui and some of the tales tkey | i, I make us understand why a teli low who has gone to congress orthe senate thinks there are no other jobs worth having. They get | about every thing imaginable free it.eluding shaves, manicures and , massages and have the right to Iplace the whole family on the pay roll. The present candidates should I ! gree to make some changes in | ■this custom, at least so far as they | J are individually concerned. "It is really a great) misfortune fat a time like this that we are al | stock-minded people." says an econ-1 iomist. He complains that we arej | merely temporizing with emerglency schemes to bolster up the | Istock market instead of adopting i-ound recons:ruction policies and i jgoiiig ahead with them. He is . I doubtless right. We are rather hypocritical about it, too. As a nation, we worship the golden call | 5 l Wall Street, even while we con | ij pm it or scoff at it. We look for 'the daily stock quota'ions to see I whether conditions are better or j worse. It is much as if we could net tell what kind of weather it was until we consulted the thermomleter. If we h d more weather I is«n-e. or more business sense, we I would attach less importance to | liurrent stock quotations, and be Hess bent on forcing them up. I i whether by governmental inter [ I vent ion or any other way. There] pr other business indexes more! I dependable. Remember how the Islock market folded most of us in: 1 92* and 1929. It may be fooling j Ins just as badly now. - o TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File i ♦ ♦ j l.aniel Falk entertains Sojdioi more Class with v party.
