Fort Wayne will dedicate her new postoffice in a day or two and ils a dandy, but that won’t bring any more checks to those who daily ask “is there any thing for me?’’ Tie down the garden gate and carry in the wood, next Monday night is Hallow’een when the witches walk and the bad boys "tear up jac k.” The Fort Wayne News-Sentinel says the tariff schedules can be reduced fifty per cent by the President. Well, let's elect one who will give some attention to the matter, other than for the favored few. The campaign has reached the stage where both sides are accusing the other of mis statements and infair tactics. Better it each side would instruct speakers to forget personalities and stick to the is-

•sues. After all that's all that counts. Maurice Early, political writer for the Indianapolis Star has just completed a tour of the fourth congressional district and admits rath ci reluctantly that the trend is to the Democrats. Its more than a trend, its a landslide. President Hooyer declared in his acceptance speech in favor of a change in the liquor laws that would permit each state to handle the problem. Vice-President Curtis declared against that • proposition. What will happen if they win? It is admitted even by the most Partisan Republicans that the next congress and senate will be Democratic. Certainly if that be true, tite President should be a Democrat. Otherwise the progress of this nation will bo slow. When Cliff Townsend addresses the meeting at Kirkland high school Tuesday night, it will be a case of a farmer talking to farmers and the program should attract n large crowd. This message is one that <#lght to be heard. Republican newspapers c’airn and predict that Mr Hoover and his present congress, will pass a beer bill In the session which convenes December Ith. a matter that ought to be taken up by those who apparently have so much fear of what wi l be done when the Democrats get In. A largo crowd attended the meeting In Union township last night and listened to three old timers

discuss the issues of the campaign They were Judge David E. Smith , of Fort Wayne and John W. Tyn- ' dall and 11. M. DeVoss of this city. The boys out there are ready to ' ote. Janies I. Farley, Democratic candidate for congress, will be in Adams county several days next week, meeting and speaking to the voters. He is qualified, is a business man i end his interests are yours, if you wish to better your condition, forget petty matters which are designed to blind you just before election and vote for him. Another wppk and the campaign will be drawing to a close but its the most important week, during I

which time organization for election day will be completed and the final touches added to bring out the voters. Thousands of men and women are campaigning over this 1 ration and the battle of ballots will be one of the most interesting in ■ all history. t If the administration is so wond- , erful and can do So much more than ) any other political party, why don't ■ they take care of the price of 1 wheat, hogs, corn, oats, hay and [ other products? They are the best 1 bluffers in the world and President Hoover will have a difficult time making the farmers and business men of Indiana believe any thing else. Farmers interested in the election, and certainly all of them ought to be, should inform themselves on the most important issues so far as regards them, by attending the meeting at the Kirkland high school next Thursday evening. The speakers will include Clifford Townsend and he is an orator of no mean ability and J. D. Hull, head of the agricultural division of the state committee. Governor Leslie and other Republicans who are campaigning in Indiana now are trying to dig up petty and personal things to charge against Patil V. McNutt. They are desperate but so are the people of Indiana and we don’t believe all their sputtering will change a half dozen votes. So far. they have discovered nothing even worth talking about, so far as the ability and , chai after of Paul McNutt is con j cerned. It will be w ell to remember what j Mrs. Ruth Bryan-Owen said in her

Berne speech, that the wise course is to take the liquor question out of politics and keep it out in the open where it can be controlled and that after all the important question in this campaign is “bread, rather than beer.” Remember too. Mr. Faißy-js a qualified and success-1 ful business man who can and will X ! represent you to your greatest ad-1 vantage. Tonight in Indianapolis Governor Kitchie. of Maryland, will address a Democratic rally and President Hoover will put on another of his “simplicity ballyhoos" for the R»-' publicans. The President at first 1 decided to remain in Washington and take things easy but the outlook is so threatening that he has cast all plans aside and will devote the rest of the time up to election day in trying to head off defeat. He also has every one in Washington who can make a speech out on the stump. Who pays those bills? "Without parade or ballyhoo and in the quiet simplicity that marks the career of the guest of honor, Adams county Republicans will hold a rally in Berne. Saturday night and hear the Hon. David Hogg" says the Berne XVitnoas. Sounds like they gnt their wedding type mixed up with their political eight-point. The truth is tne Owen meeting knocked a’l Hie ballyhoo out of the plans for a red fire rally ' that was being planned by the Hogg boosters, so they decided just to have a speech and let it go at that. Trying to make a saint out of a politician is always difficult and a !,, , ,

careful analysis of the record, activities and ability of Hogg and Farley, will result in a verdict by the people of the fourth district in favor of Farley. o • a Answers To Test Questions — Below are the Answers to the | Teal Questions Printed I on Page Twa I ♦ _ « 1.

Republican Tariff' Policy Threatens Our Institutions, Says Noted Writer ®j| IDA M. TARBELL Noted writer who declares that shewill support the Democratic ticket thisyearbecause she believes that the tariff policy of the Nation must be changed. Ida M. Tarbell, historian of business and outstanding woman bio- ■ grapher, has announced that shel is voting the Democratic ticket ’ chiefly because she believes the tarjiff must lie ousted "from its pres-1 ent position as the God of Prosper-' lily.” Miss Harbell. who has been j life-long student of the tariff and; lite effect on trade, savs: 1 1 I i “I am voting the Democratic I ticket for several reasons — the, 'most compelling is that in a change of party is the only chance I see | for ousting the tariff from its presient position as the God of Pres per-' 1 ity—ousting it and putting it where , it belongs as a legitimate producer ol revenue only. “That the tariff as we know it lias shaped out prosperity is true. ' Rut I do not like the shape. I bei lieve nothing could be worse for (this country than to return to the brand of prosperity which was knocked over in 1929. I do not ' want ever again to see it rampant. I “The Republican doctrine claims that the first bulwark of the prosperity of the United States, is the : I tariff Admit it It Is a bulwark I i pretty effectually sheltering one j class the manufacturing but I which has never been and can never *| be stretched to give equal protec- ’ tio nto the farmer. He may dodge ,'behind a potato screen or behind a i milk screen, but hie great crops ’ t are free to the attacks of a world I market. t 1 "What this means is a privileged I class-the factory and the farmer '|out of balance. Permit privilege ■to go uncorrected in a country of fl Democratic faith and you destroy your faith invite violent effects to change things. 1 “The tariff as the Republican party sees it is. I am convinced a 'serious threat to our institutions. “It is a threat to democracy and • a constant international irritation. ' Trade barriers must be protected, j Armaments go with tariffs. They I (are one reason why since the end | of the Great War the world has I more than doubled the number of I (men in arms. I “It is idle tor us to delude ourselves with the old superstition of isolation We never have stood alone in the world. We are more dependent upon the world today than ever before. Every year more clearly demonstrates that the world is an economic whole. Trade forces its way over whatever lawn you I pass, and past whatever guns and 'ships you provide to safeguard those laws. « "We face an economic inevitable

|How much wiser and safer to shape: a prosperity in harmony with the j trends of the world than to call on lour old tariff idol to protect us I | against those trends. He cannot | 'do it. We should admit it and (cautiously but determidelv put him, lon a pedestal where he can really | ! serve. Otherwise one of these days I Ihe will get his head knocked off isummarily with a lot of suffering! and disorganization for everybody j I —all of which may if we act in | (time, be avoided.*’ — o THANKS — The Sellemeyer family wishes to | take this opportunity to publicly! (thank all those who have so help-1 (fully and sympathetically remembered and assisted them in their 1 I hour of sorrow. The beautiful floral gifts, the | many sincere w rds of condotence I land the invaluable assistance rendered in the home during the ser-l vices and otherwise, were instruI mental in greatly palliating our I sorrow. t Fred Sellemeyer and Children.

As neither is yet in Radio's 1 possession, the studio is keeping a light mouth about the titles. But to return to Hepburn—all ‘ Hollywood is talking about her sen- - sational performance in ‘‘A Bill of Divorcement.” You even hear her , unconventional beauty compared to that of Garbo—and this time there was no studio progaganda to so--1 ment the idea. Due back here November 7, HolI lywood's newest overnight celebrity will go to work opposite Joel McCrea in “Three Came Lnarmed.” Here's an odd note. In both “A Bill of Divorcement” and in “Little Women,” Miss Hepburn plays the role that was taken by Katharine Cornell on the legitimate stage. i , One of the better jokes about the now almost perennial “Rasputin” was pulled by Douglas Churchill. ' i He suggests they break .he picture up into a series: “Rasputin in Paris.” “Rasputin in Hollywood,” and “Rasputin at Harvard. ’’ 1 1 TOWN GOSSIP: f i Those rumors keep cropping up about a reunion between Greta Nissen and Weldon Heyburn.

For 24 hoars, everybody, including Mary Pickford, thought Doug las Fairbanks might have sailed for Hollywood. Mary's daily cable was returned with word that Doug and his party had left China on a boat. When a delayed message finally came through, it was learned that Doug is heading for Batavia in Java. So far he hasn't been on the tiger hunt and there’s a possibility he may forego it. In this case, he'll continue his journey through the Suet Canal to Europe, where he has a Christmas rendezvous with Mary at St. Moritz. Even this is uncertain, because Mary's picture hasn’t started and she won’t leave Hollywood until it is finished. NOTES FROM A COLUMNIST'S DIARY: Would like a glimpse at George Raft’s address book.

Hours later, ran onto Vince Barnett at Stark’* Bohemian Club. He always introduces columnists as somebody else, which is no break for the other party.
