The blizzard was not the most pleasant variation of weather but a relief from the rain. It checked the floods which in many sections were becoming exceedingly dangerous. Charles Brown of Geneva lias been named as an oil inspector for Adams. Wells, Jay and Randolph! counties, a deserving recognition for one of the old wheel horses of i lie south part of the county. The farm relief measure now being enacted may not work but the president has promised that if it doesn't he will be the first to say so and to correct it or ask its repeal. That's the right position for the chief to take. The one thing to be urged by Director Janies Adams to his men n the roads over the state will lie courteous treatment 'to every one. i There can lie no good reason why! these men should not give all the I service possible to the traveler. The depression is over for the | manufacturers of pretzels, according to reports. One company at St. Joseph, Missouri, is turning them out at the rate of four million a day and then can t keep up with the orders. Opposition to President Roosevelt may come later in his administration but its not time for it yet. His work is far too important and the congressmen and senators who oppose him now will find themselves mighty unpopular when they return home. Anil that includes Senator Robinson of Indiana. Paul Fry, state excise director, j announces he will not issue per-| mils for the sale of beer except to j those places which have an air of J decorum and refinment, suitable to ] take a lady for refreshments. There will .be no dives or saloons he says and that will be an entirely different condition than existed in the old days. Frank Thompson, representative from this district in the recent legislative session, will be the speaker at the Rotary meeting here tomorrow evening. He will discuss his experiences. By the way, Mr. Thompson made au exce lent record in his first session, consulting with his constituents on various measures of importance and voting on each bill as ho b» Roved the greater number desired.

A gang of boys who ought t( know they are getting themselves t into serious difficulties continue tc destroy property, breaking light I shades, throwing missels through it 1 windows at the Decatur Produce plant and otherwise causing damr age. A boy who does this kind of r. work maliciously is bad and ought it to be taught the error of his ways before he gets to doing worse 2 things. The officers are after the 0 boys and when they get them it ?! may be just too bad for them. 3 o; 51 The president is down to the real 81 business of bringing this country ® back to a prosperous condition. He has attacked the depression and his program includes the enrollment of workers for quick public employment, grants to states for relief work, creation of a broad public work program. By next winter most of those unemployed who really desire work, will be earning a living. If that happens we will have an old fashioned Thanksgiv- : ing and Christmas. I The majority opinion in this state 1 is solidily behind every legitimate ' j effort to reduce the cost, of the cen- ! tral government. The people of Indiana know that part of the j financial plight of the country is directly attributable to the tremendous expenditures of the federal government which is consuming $4,000,000,000 annually and will be confronted with a deficit of $5,000,000.000 next year. They also are aware of the drain of $9,000,000,000 for state and local governments. Senator Robinson's opposition to President Roosevelt's plan for drastic retrenchment to balance the budget and to relieve the people is not representative of the sentiment in Indiana. Hoosiers favor cuts and they believe that the day is here when Congress should lend its full power and influence to the I support of a plan that will finally I bring retrenchment. — Richmond I Paladium.

By HARRISON CARROLL. HOLLYWOOD — With a ready opportunism, Louis B. Mayer may switch Joan Crawford’s next

t —■MM— Joan Crawford

picture from, “The Dancing Lady” to the story of the lady and the prize fighter once spoken of for Norma Shearer. Last night, Frances Marion was hard at work upon an idea, which borrows a number o f situations from her earlier story. Between her and How- 1 •rd Hawks, who will act as su-

pervisor, the script may be ready for shooting in three weeks. Moreover, Clark Gable will be Joan’s leading man in the picture. At the moment, and I‘ve been ■warned there’ll be a change, the title of the new story is “Sucker, Sinner or Saint." Joan’s last film, the war story she did with Gary Cooper, is regarded by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer as a potential special. It will introduce clipped, economical dialogue, the work of William Faulkner, author of the sensational novel, "Sanctuary.” HOLLYWOOD PARADE: Unusual, the case of that girl who wrote to George Raft, thanking him for saving her a lot of unhappiness. She had a framed picture of George in her room. Her fiance reseated it so much that, on the eve of their marriage, the two had a violent quarrel and broke the engagement. The girl thinks now that she would have been very unhappy with such a jealous husband. Chances are that Marion Nixon will go back to free-lancing after her contract (one more picture) is finished at Fox... . Joan Bennett is another who will, be leaving this company. Sally Eilars, on the other hand, just signed a new contract yesterday. ... St. Patrick’* Day was Sari Maritza’s birthday. Very soon now the blonde Sari will be taking the train for New York. Sam Katz, who squired her to many Hollywood parties, also is in the easL Hollywood’s newest boon companions art Lilyan Tashman, Edmund T.nw» and Jam** Thomas. K nown chiefly for his stage work.■

Adrienne Ames has bought her tickets for a New York visit She’ll be there only a week. There's nothing monotonous about Hollywood to Henry Caret, the French star. In addition to the salary cuts, the bank holidays, etc.. he had his car catch fire the other day. And he’s had insomnia ever since arriving here from the east. . . . His narrow escape in that unpremeditated collapse of a breakaway set did not keep Cary Grant from bringing Virginia Cherrill to lunch yesterday at the Paramount commissary. , . . And a San Francisco scout reports that the Clark Gables were dancing to Ted Fierito’s music at the St. Francis the other night. A note of pathos in an incident which occurred at the Paramount casting office. They had sent out a call for 40 “Royal Flying Corps types.” When the men arrived, the casting director said: “Why these men won’t do —net any of them.” “But, my dear fellow,” said one of the applicants, “we were K. F. C. boys, you know.” The officials looked at the speaker, a graying man with a Cross of St. George on hi 3 tunie. “Yes.” he said gently, “but we must have men like you were 15 years ago—young fellows like they had in the war.”

One of the better retorts of the week is credited to John Barrymore o n the “Reunion in Vienna” set. They had come to a scene where John was called on to parade around in his shirt tail and B. V. D.’s. Director Sidney Franklin asked if he wanted to have the set

blocked off from visitors. “Not I,” snapped Barrymore. “I’m perfectly at home. I’ve dreamed this scene hundreds of times.” DID YOU KNOwZ That Nils Aether owns an island ' off the coast of Ma'mo, Sweden?
