Don't say that the Democrat platform is a straddle proposition. Still a great country, with a lot of the old fashioned fight and enthusiasm left. So live that some day your friends want to nominate you for President. And if not already decided, who'll be the candidate for Vice-Presi-dent?

'' Huntington seems to have a monll opoly on having the right candl- & dldates for president of Internal--0 lonal service clubs, such as the Rotary and Kiwanis. A few years ago Arthur Sapp served as head of Rotary International and yesterday Carl E. Endicott, was elected president of Kiwanis International. Both men are high grade gentlemen and following the splendid record made by Mr Sapp we feel confident that Mr. Endicott will measure up to [the Huntington's reputation of furnishing the proper executives lor these organizations. t ” Adopting a platform, concisely written and fearless in expression, 1 the Democrats are ready to make their, campaign. The minority plank calling for a straddle on the prohibition question was voted down and the platform stands for !• the repeal of the Eighteenth amendment and the modification of the Volstead law. The question has long been debated and handled with kid gloves and now is brought in the open. Guarding against the evils of the liquor traffic, the plank is in keeping with opinions of national leaders, that the present lawshould never have been a part of . the constitution and the regulation ( ot it be turned back to the states. Certainly it was time for the counI try to speak out emphatically against the present order of things and viewed from an economic issue. i it's important that some change be I made. i o rREUNION - J CALENDAR Monday, July 4 Ratz -reunion, Sunset Park southI east of Decatur.

Radio Aids Decisions

By M. H. AYLESWORTH Prezident National Broadcasting Company

The American people have a better opportunity this year to acquaint themselves with the issues Involved In a national election, and to act upon their own conclusions, than in any previous presidential cam paign. During the months preceding the election, the various candidates will personally speak to the voters in every part of the country. From their offices and homes, and ftom public gatherings, the candidates will send their voices into millions of homes by radio. They will lay down their platforms before the entire electorate of the ration. They will make their pledges and argue their points before a vast audience in an aphf-j theatre of three million square' miles. Between now and November 8, 1 the citizen who wishes to do his I patriotic duty and cast his ballot intelligently must necessarily engage in a great deal of thinking. A flood of claims and counterclaims on many complex subjects will be put before him. and he must weigh them and make his decision. He must attempt to sift the truth from all that he hears and reads. He must analyse each statement, and decide for himself what is best for the nation. The difficulty, of course, lies in the fact that the average man is not fully conversant with the details of such subjects as tariffs, various forms of taxes, certain aspects of international relations, national financing and other complicated affairs of State. With this difficulty in mind, the National Broadcasting Company Ist now conducting regular non par-1 tisan programs over the air, in an effort to acquaint men and women ■ everywhere with the facts about government, in its various forms, and to explain and interpret, as well as to clarify, the issues which the voters must settle with their ballots.

It is imperative, especially at a ■ time like this, that everyone should s take an Interest, and an active In--1 terest, in government. If the pub- , lice does not express itself at the 1 polls, after intelligent study of the situation, then the public cannot ! complain if its wishes are not nili filled. i Therefore it is to tie recommended that all who may do so should I read their newspapers and maga- • zines carefully and thoughtfully. • and listen attentively to the many • excellent speakers on the radio, who will discuss national affairs. Among the foremost of these are 1 the eminent students ot govern- ■ ment and economics speaking every ■ I week under the auspices of the NatJ tonal Advisory Council on Radio In I Education, an impartial, nou-parti- ' san organization. The series on I "You and Your Government'' which ate >p esented every Tuesday in <ooperation with the American Political Science Association and the National League of Women Voters is exceptionally illuminating. Other programs of great value heard regularly are presented by the American Taxpayers League, the International Radio Forum, the Foreign Policy Association, the National Security League, the National Radio Forum, the American Bar Association, and by such trained observers of national and world events as William Hard, David Lawrence and James G. McDonald. The men • and women on these I broadcasts are informed upon mat-j tens of state and local, as well as j national and international, import-1 ance. A few hours spent with them. I land supplemented by reading and i thought, will help immeasurably in clearing the picture. It is the duty of every citizen to keep informed about his government. and to exercise the right to a voice in that government. Tomorrow: Hon. Albert C. Ritchie. Governor of Maryland.

FRIEND TOLD HIM ABOUT ALL-BRAN i And It Brought Relief From Constipation Those who are bothered with con* ; Btipation should read Mr. Gclpke’s • unsolicited letter: “I have suffered with constipation for years. A friend of mine told me to try All-Bran. I have taken All-Bran for the past six weeks as a breakfast food. It has regulated my bowels as clockwork. Now I would not be without a package at all times.” — Mr. Leslie Gelpke, 273 i Ridgewood Ave., Newark, N. J. Common constipation—with its headaches, loss of appetite, sleeplessness — is due to lack of ‘‘bulk’’ to exercise the intestines, Vitamin B to help tone the intestinal tract. Both are present in Kellogg’s AllBran, as well as iron for the blood. The “bulk” in All-Bran is much like that in lettuce. Within the body, it forms a soft mass, which gently clears the intestines of wastes. Being a natural corrective, All-Bran is not habit-forming. | Try All-Bran in place of pilld and drugs—so often harmful. Just eat two tablespoonfuls daily — serious cases with every meal. Il your intestinal trouble is not re- • lieved this way, see your doctor. In the red-and-green package. Al all grocers. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek.
