WHY COMPLAIN?: We complain a great deal these days and many feel that the country has gone to the bow-wows completely, so its rather encouraging that some one has sat himself down and figured out these pertinent facts: Savings bank deposits are sl,233,000,000 more than they were at the peak of the boom. Savings bank deposits exceed $29,000,000,000, more than SI,OOO for every family. Savings depositors number 52,000,000. nearly two for every family. There is $700,000,000 more currency in circulation than during ■the boom about three years ago. Last year over $16,500,000,000 worth of new life insurance was ‘ written. I United States lias a stock of; over $4,000,000,000 in gold, more than any other country ever pos-' sossed. There arc 25,800,000 automobiles owned by Americans. Over 50 per cent of the farms in l the United States are absolutely' free of debt. Our national wealth is rated at : $330,000,000,000. There are seven persons employed for every person unemployed. The income of the American people is over $1,000,000,000 a week. Our so-called national luxury bill is still up in the billions a year. What is needed most is confidence, courage and a willingness to go ahead. More log cabins were built in 1932 than in any other year since : ; Abe Lincoln's day, says an ex-' change, according to the best avail;able information, but that doesn't mean that the standard of living has suffered a setback to the exlent that would indicate, which is , -the conclusion the outside world would jump to if it reads that statement. No doubt necessity was ihe builder of a few of these cabins. The wilds of the gold states are overrun with prospectors with nothing else to do. and some of them, no doubt, have reverted to the primitive home of logs and mud. But the bulk of th 1932 vintage of log cabins are the summdr playhouses of urbanites who like to return to nature on hot nights, summer week ends and holidays. Nor did many of them hew their logs with their own hands. The log cabin has become a type of construction in wide demand for fishing and hunting camps whereever timber is cheap and available. Once upon a time presidents were born in log cabins. Now they spend their suminei holidays in them. Either way it is good for them; this getting back to nature and out tn the great outdoors. There are less healthful places in which to *** \ IS A \ sciFNCI GOING HAND IN HAND WITH \ecperiencey W. H. Zwick & Son Mrs. Zwick. Lady Attendant Phones 61 and 303. J. M. Doan, Phone 1041

lay one’s head and break one's i bread. The bill to give the Philippines . freedom after ten years has pass- ■ ed both houses of congress ovgr the President's veto and by det, cisive majorities. Politics was put aside and Republicans and Demo- , crats joined in taking this action which has been postponed for a i number of years. Evidently most folks think if they are not ready now they ought to be able to get fairly well prepared in ten years if they ever will. A bill has been introduced to reduce gasoline taxes from four cents to three and there are numerous; other measure designed to make it easier to keep going. Fine, but please remember that some how iwe must keep the schools going, 1 the charitable and correctional inI stitutions up to standard, meet our i debts and otherwise spend some ■ money. Getting sufficient to do [that from the beer and race bills I may be somewhat doubtful. Greece has granted Mr. Insull an : extension of time that he can reImain there until next January. In (the meantime he may get something started that will want them to permit him to finish. One thing is sure, he doesn’t care to return to the U. S. A. j Mr. Roosevelt is in favor of re- | striding tlie farm relief to cotton and wheat for the present and that may be wise. If its the right thing, it can be enlarged upon and if it. doesn’t prove satisfactory it won’t hurt so much. ===-—• Only a dozen more days in which to secure your 1933 license plates or else put old Lizzie away. According to orders from state headquarters, there will be no further extension of time for taking out new licenses for your automobile. Pay your subscription now. The time is slipping by and our big sixty day special offer will be over soon. You want the paper during | these days when so much is happening and when every one is 1 anxiously looking for better days. The eoW wave may have been a little slow- in arriving but it' will be sufficient when it comes to make up for any lost time. Tlie Wisconsin girl who has been sneezing for five days probably has a genuine case of Indiana flu. * TWENTY YEARS * AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File ♦ ♦ i January 18, 1913. —C. E.

CHURCH Special meetings are being held this week at the First M. E. Church in this city under the direction of the pastor. Rev. B. H. Franklin, assisted by his brother, the Rev. E. E. Franklin, pastor of the Normal City Methodist Church in Muncie, Indiana. Services are being held at twothirty o'clock in the afternoon and at seven o'clock in the evening. I>arge crowds have been in attendance at all services and a fine spirit is being manifested. Music has been made a fine part of the services under the direction of the pastor assisted by the choir, under the direction of Mrs. Dan Tyndall. The sermons are delivered by Rev. E. E. Franklin and on Tuesday evening he spoke on the theme, "The Land We Want to Possess.'' lie. portrayed the unexcelled leadership of Moses in leading the children ot Israel from Egypt to the borders of Canaan and showed that the two greatest attributes in the life of Moses were Confidence and Faith. As the Israelites approached the land of Canaan, spies were sent to inspect Ithe land. Ten declared, the land could not be taken and two ■ reported favorably. Because of the lack of faith of the ten the ' Israelites were detained for forty ■ years. Because of the faith of : the two God fought their battles for them. Thus the "Land Ahead” i becomes a challenge to us. not • only to the unsaved but to the ■ church. It should be a Land of Hope. A Land of Grace. We can go out and possess it. We can > move out by steps of grace. We may see “Giants and Difficulties.” but righteousness involves effort.

Sin moves along lines of least resistance. All we need to do to lose out is to do nothing. Men do not sin because they hate God but because it requires less [ effort. The ten men allowed fear to ■ master them and therefore declared that they could not take the i land of Canaan. Man is not to bo i condemned because of fear but - because he does nothing to over- . come it. It is heroic to rise up againslt fear and overcome it. He' that doeth it will find Jesus stand- . ing by his side as Moses found . God at his side. Jesus under- . stands. He found Calvary. He will smile upon us if we move for-; ward. There is a goal for the sin . ner. There is a goal for the . church. Let us press forward and possess the Before Jericho the Israelites had only God and i he was sufficient. So with us to-! ’ day we must turn to God for de-; liverance. Let us do it today and possess the Land. Only thus caul we bring out the best that is in usi ‘ and measure up to the standard ' j required in God's kingdom. 11 o Order Is Denied Sofia, Jan. 18.— (U.R) — Reports I that the Vatican had ordered the | ex communication of Queen Joanna| of Bulgaria because her infant, I I Princess Maria Louise, was Christ-, lened in the Greek Orthodox faith | were denied today by the papal I nuncio, Mgr.

These are large faraway figures to the average person. They will, however, come home with sharp impact on those who make out income tax returns! between now and March 15 and discover that while their earnings have dropped their taxes have multiplied. In his message, Mr. Hoover set three essentials: 1. Maximum economies urged in his budget message should be adhered to by congress. 2. No new authorizations or appropriations should be made. 3. Even appropriations recommended should he cut at every possible point. “I regret to say that the same forces are at work which thwarted the savings of several hundred

millions we sought to effect at I the last session of congress. Mi. Hoover said. . He added that in appropriation ! bills already acted upon by »he houae, an appearance ot saving ! - ld been made but that actually | X amounts ran $35,000,000 more than budget recommendations. Democrats immediately accused Mr Hoover of misrepresenting the facts.
