Some one is always taking the joy out. It develops that the new beer was only 2,08 in alcoholic content instead of the legal 3.2 and here every body thought it was just right. House cleaning time and all that goes with It, Including the garage and the yard, the attic and the cellar. will furnish work for many of those who have been wanting to keep busy, for a while. In the meantime perhaps business will seally start to picking up. The clouds are lifting and from every part of the country comes news which indicate better days. We have apparently turned the corner and these who are maliciously predicting the downfall of the national and state administration, simply because of political partisanship, deserve but passing attention and not much of that. Congress is being swamped with protests against the thirty-hour week bill. It slipped through the senate without much attention from the public but now they are aroused to the seriousness of such a proposition and many are so declaring themselves. Several from tills county have beseiged Congressman Earley and no doubt many will follow. Easter is near and you will want t 1 be ready for that day. which of course requires some new clothes. You don’t need much money to complete a wardrobe this year. Prices never were as low and the style and quality is attractive. Watch the merchant's announcements this week. They will give you information that is valuable and tell you how you cat: be best served at the least cost. Decatur will extend a hearty welcome to Rev. C. P. Gibbs, new pastor of the Methodist church. He comes from Warsaw where he has been very popular and the w ord is that he is a capable minister and an excellent citizen.

that Rev. B. F. Franklin is to move from here. He has been one of the most popular ministers the church has ever had here and has ' hosts of friends outside the church t besides the one hundred per cent loyalty of all members. In the Wisconsin constitutional t convention on national prohibition repeal the fifteen delegates at , will vote solidly tor repeal. In the > Michigan convention ninety-nine of * the 100 delegates elected on a counj ty representation basis will be for ; repeal. In two states, therefore, • only one delegate’s vote will be 1 cast for continuance of national prohibition. Os course, the convention results would be thevsame if the prohibitionists had substantially larger representation. If six of the Wisconsin delegates had been elected as drys that state still would have been committed to repeal. If the drys had forty-nine votes instead of one in the Michigan convention, the net result wodld be the same. In Indiana more delegates will be elected, but the outcome will be no less clear cut. The people will vote for or against prohibition repeal, not for or against individuals nominated as delegates. In other words, there can be no “ticket splitting.” So. in spite of the fact that Indiana’s constitutional convention will be I made up of 329 delegates, the outcome will be cut and dried.—South Bend Tribune. — Contusion persists with respect to the effect of the new tax laws passed by the recent legislature concerning the ownership of money. These new laws, dealing with intangible property, have the effect of eliminating the payment by owners thereof of taxes on money deposited in banks and trust companies. Taxes on money on deposit in batiks and trust companies under the new intangibles laws will be assumed by the banks and trust companies. Meanwhile, money hoarded in safe deposit boxes or in any other manner kept in the possession of the taxpayer, except when on deposit in banks and trust companies, is still taxable at the old rate of between $2.50 and $3 | per sl'*o in Indianapolis. Under 1 the old tax law (Sec. 14102 Burn's j Revised Statute) all moneys are taxed at the regular property rates I ■ as chattels and tangible property. | This provision of the old law still is in effect and has not been changed or affected in any way by the < new intangibles tax law. which be- , i came effective Feb. 28, 1933. The effect therefore, of the present laws it is that taxes on money which Is ; ■ < deposited in banks and trust companies arc assumed by the finan- 1 c al institutions and the owner of 1 such deposits is. therefore, free of tax on them. Hoarded money, i however, continues to be taxable ’ at the old general property rates.
