President Roosevelt is no bluffer. He has reduced his own salary fifteen per cent and to make it good has returned that amount from his first check, starting his lower salary with his term. That's practising what he preaches. A few Republicans in congress have launched an attack against the administration agricultural measure but will probably not get far, if those in control remember the "fizzle’’ made by the last administration along that line. Every one who drives an automobile must take out a new license. To do so you must apply at the license bureau as no licenses will be issued at the state offices. The cost is fifty cents and you are expected to secure your permit to drive a car immediately. In a recent editorial we called attention co the item published that Michigan had shown a stronger wet attitude than Wisconsin. Since complete returns arc in however we learn that Wisconsin voted in favor of repeal by a five to one majority which outclassed the Wolverines. Next Sunday is Easter and this week every one will bo busy in preparation. That new suit, dress, hat, pair of shoes or whatever you need can be purchased from the local stores at the best price in years. It will be to your advantage to watch the advertisements this week. The state police force is to be reorganized this week, following the announcement of a number of new patrolmen. A school will follow with Al Feeny, state director of public safety as principal instructor and it is expected that with their added powers, the force will become an active one for the protection of Hoosiers. Governor McNutt expects to practically’ complete his program of reorganizing the various import ant boards of the state this week, numerous changes being made. The new order will not mean a new personel in the various depazt ments but a number of new regulations which are expected to pro vide greater efficiency.

' I I II The election of delegates to the' i convention to be held in June on, ' the repeal of the eighteenth amend- 1 , ment is of course a non-partisan affair and that is the position taken by the Republican state chairman, Don B. Erwin, in a statement just issued. There are wets and drys in each party and in this election they are expected to vote their ■ sentiments as to the proposed repeal. Gold certificates and gold, ex-1 cepting an exemption of one hun- [ dred dollars, must be turned in to | the government by June Ist. The penalty for not complying is severe, a fine of SIO,OtH) and ten years in prison. Better comply. The First State Bank of this city will gladly make the exchange for you and! give you such information as you | may desire concerning this. They I will also be glad to advise .youl concerning the intangible laws and are assuming the tax on certificates and saving accounts, which is a well timed service that ought to be and will be duly appreciated by the public.

President Roosevelt is! turning to other nations in hopes > t tat he may lead the way out of the morass of economic nationalism. Its a big job but don't overlook the fact be has proven him-; self capable of doing big things in , ' a big way and not wasting much ■ ' time aa it, Many folks now readily , understand why he declined to j enter into any deals prior to his: assumption of office. One of the ' tasks to be undertaken will be to ' secure a general reduction of tar- ! iffs but permitting each nation to I fix its own schedules. That’s a' step necessary before the old sash-1 ioned good will can be restored and; if successful will within a short i time aid greatly in restoring world prosperity. e f TWENTY~YEARS AGO TODAY — From the Daily Democrat File | ♦ —— ♦ Tarriff measure prohibits millin- | ers trimming hats with any wind of] aigrette, skin or feathers of birds I except ostrich.

The modernist - fundamentalist controversy that arose in 1924 aroused, he thought, too much attention and distracted the religious from the purpose of their worship. Accordingly, he resigned from the Princeton Presbyterian church, although later he became reconciled and returned.
