BETTER SERVICE AT LESS COST The Governor of Indiana is giving the people of his state some in-: tereating information about state j government operations in the ser-; ies of weekly radio talks which • have just been started. It is the kind of information the people hive been wanting, and it is more important now than ever before because of the changes that have ' taken place in the system of gov-! eminent. Governor McNutt is ex-1 plaining these changes and why I they were necessary for the wel-1 fare of Indiana and its people. For instance, the Governor in discussing the reorganization of the state government asserted that: government is a business and must I be handled as such if there are to j be satisfactory results. For years j there has been no coordination in ' the operation of this state business, i The Governor, as the head of the! government, has been held respon-. sible for successes and failures, j The only power he had was to n me appointees to the, labyrinth of boards and bureaus, but there | hi. power euded. When those appointees proved incompetent the' Governor was without authority to remote them. Governor McNutt showed to the state that under the new system ■ the application of common sense ■ is made possible. Many needless: jobs have been abolished.the salary; scale for state workers has been standard and the basis lowered. I There are cases of when two etn! ployees are now doing the work that was formerly performed by i nine, who were kept on payroll at ' 'he expense of the taxpayers and ■ not because their presence was needed or that they rendered any effective service. The service is better and the cost is less, Governor McNutt stated and the records show that is correct. There has been an application of business principles to the ! operation of the state government and the results are there to prove it. Costs have been reduced a million and a half dollars in a little ' more than thirty days that the new ' system has been functioning. For the first time in years the workers fc.r this state are really working and giving service for what they j are receiving. The Governor has .’ruck the proper chord in giving the people of his state the information on these things. Clifton Striker was yesterday chosen by the township trustees to If you need money for any worthy purpose, do not hesitate to consult us. Let us explain—no obligation—how you may borrow from us at a moderate interest cost and do away with those financial worries. If inconvenient to call at office—call, phone or write us.

serve another four-year term as county superintendent, his election occuring on the first ballot, after • he had received six of the twelve , votes and County Auditor Cowan, acting under the law, cast his vote for Mr. Striker. This will make the third term for him, indicating his popularity among the trustees. Mr. Striker has an excellent record and the schools of the county are in splendid standing, which is something when we consider that this has been an up-hill business during the depression as it has in other lines. The candidates against Mr. Striker, Mr. Steiner, Mr. Foley and Mr. Matin are all school men of experience and ability, deserving in every way and each of whom has the kindest regards of the trustees who had to choose. The Country C’ub, now in charge of Adams Post No. 43. the American Legion, has been formally opened and is going strong. Its a delightful spot to rest and those who like golf and every one does who has I tried it. will find the course in exI cellent playing condition. Grab [your clubs and go out. You'll enijoy it. The wet and dry election will soon be history in Indiana. The polls will close at six o'clock and by nine o'clock, the results w’ill probably be known, unless closer [than is expected. The day was a , quiet one at the polls and the vote : while not as large as in general elections, was sufficient to show a considerable interest. Boys and girls of this community are waiting for Thursday to come. That's the occasion of the 'reopening for the season of the [municipal swimming pool and that ; means many hours of pleasure in [a safe, clean place to bathe. __ We have a new air hero. Jimmy Mattern, who flew the Atlantic over ■ the weea-end and broke all records [for time. He is continuing his I flight around the world and has the grit and the determination that will write his name in history. The hot weather may not be as , comfortable as some would like, but its seasonable. A shower or ■ two now and watch the corn and . beets come. Returns will be received as usual [at this office tonight and the re- ; suits will be published in the Wednesday morning extra for the mail ■subscribers. Call 1000 for returns. The senate committee seems to be having a lot of fun getting the [ boys who made millions to tell them how they did it and then how they let it slip away. Did you vote? You should ot course and if you haven't and will i hurry you u ay do so yet. —o — * AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File Earl Steele returns to Canada. Friends surprise Mr. and Mrs. D. M.

He is one of the few American actors to land a featured spot in a James Whale picture. Whale made up for this, however, by sending the novel all the way to England for R. C. Sherriff to put in final shape for the screen. After "The Invisible Man,” Carl Laemmle, Jr., has other plans for Chester. The future looks bright for him. They’re getting a great laugh in Hollywood over the story of a certain producer who summoned the head of his music department. “In diss new picture,” he exclaimed, “ve must helT someding clessical — someding like Schulberg’s Serenade!” HOLLYWOOD PARADE.
