POLITICAL RECKETEERING: An echo of the political campaign last fall is contained in a measure which has been introduced in the house of representatives, designed to control what is termed as political racketeering. Although this may appeal to some as a foolish and needless gesture, if it accomplishes the result intended, the people of Indiana may be spared a condition that existed during the campaign. There is no denying that coercion of voters was practiced extensively during the past campaign in Indiana as well as in other states. Many men and women fortunate enough to have regular work were threatened and intimidated. They went through the campaign with the constant fear of losing their jobs unless they voted as they had been instructed. At one period of the campaign it appeared that the threats might even be effective. Fortunately for the Democratic party, the program of intimidation was started early enough that it was combated far and wide. In Indiana. United Stales Senatorelect Frederick VanNuys. constantly referred to the coercion of voters and promised to support a national law that would effectively handle such practices in the future. Some criticism is being registered against the political racketeering'’ bill, one editorial writer declaring that It "seems to be noth- | ir.g more than a feeble, futile and unnecessary attempt to interfere with political discussion." However, threatening voters with the I loss of their employment or threatening an entire community with the closing of plants unless cer-j tain candidates are successful certainly does not come under the head of political discussion. Every employer has a perfect right to discuss political issues with Ills workers, but to compel a worker to vote this or that way to satisfy the employer is nothing short of criminal. It is depriving the worker of his birthright and his sacred privilege. . The political racketeering bill should not be necessary, but under the circumstances of the. last campaign it is not entirely out of line with other correctional legislation thut is tound expedient from time to time. The Decatur Chamber of Commerce is off on another year ami it will be, by tho way, one of tho most important in our history. There are many things that can Im done to help conditions and no How are Your Nerves?

IF your day begins with nerves frayed, backache, headache or periodical pains, you need Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip- , tion. Read what Mrs. E. R. Caskey of 1321 Silver Ave., Indianapolis, says: “After

difference what legislation is enacted, we must remember that we must lift ourselves out of the depression. Effort on our part the next year will pay big dividends for its the city that gets a running start that will forge ahead when the break comes. Join the Chamber of Commerce, pay your dues, help in the various movements to put Decatur ahead of alf towns of its size in the country. Mr. Strouse in an able address last evening before the Decatur Chamber of Commerce stressed the point of saving the railroads for the nation. He compared the expenditures by them for taxes apd upkeep with those by other vehicles and made many excellent points from his viewpoint. He is an able Hoosier, now assistant to the general manager of the Pen- ! nsylvania railroad and while here renewed acquaintanceship with several local men. Naturally he is deeply interested in the railroad problem which has recently become a perplexing one for the entire country. Just what the reason is for oven talking alsmt changing the route of the Benjamin Franklin highway so as to miss Decatur, Huntington, Wabash and Peru in Indiana we can't imagine. The road Is being paved and will .soon be concrete all the way through the state. It is one of the roads most jxipular with travelers because It misses the larger cities and because it is the short route for those going or coming from the east or west. However there seems to be some effort being made along that line and there should be a general work of cooperation to check It. Some folks who don't bclicvo in technocracy have changed its name to “technocrazy” and when we try to figure out just how this or any i other country could be operated on an “energy'' basis, wc are in- ' dined to believe tho new term is ; not ta.r • : of the way. Science in one thing and has produced much good but business and government is quite another and the two will| scarcely mix. Wo don't believe' Mr. Edison would have joined such a movement. The bill which will change the administration of government in Indiana is expected to pass this week or early next week. It will |

give great power to the governor and to this there are some objections. However, since he is to be charged with the results, be they good or bad, why not give him the authority to do those things he feels should be done for the general good? According to the treasury sharps, a JI bill passes so rapidly from hand to hand that it wears out in eight or nine months. On the other hands a $5 bill lasts a year, a $lO bill a year and a half —and a . SIO,OOO bill lasts indefinitely. The next time somebody gives you a SIO,OOO bill, just notice how little wear It shows. The Pathfinder. Mr Roosevelt will announce his i cabinet in a few days, according to late press stories. He is giving, careful consideration and keeping ; his opinions to himself. Reporters have had little if any success in figuring Out the dope and it is ,doubtfulJf they have done a very, good job of guessing.

Jan. 31.- (UR) —Edouard 0 Daladier completed formation of a cabinet today and drafted a new plan to meet the liuancial crisis ! which, it was believed, would be i acceptable both to the chamber of 'deputies and the senate. ] The government hoped to win j support of the socialists, who over-: threw the last two governments; ” and declined to participate in the new one, by reducing taxes which the last government proposed to levy on small businesses, and by | I fixing the estimated proposed to J lew on small businesses, and by i fixing the estimated deficit lower i than estimates of Henry Cheron, finance minister in the last cabi- > net. > The government may agree to t the socialist plan to meet part of; the deficit with a loan, instead of . by increased taxation.
