The flashy uniformed military bands and drum corps will be worth seeing. ♦ ’ Be on hand Sunday afternoon to rfelcome the Legionnaires and visitors. Decatur is looking its best for visitors next Sunday. Elowers are blooming, lawns are well kept and its a real town to show. The old weather man missed Decatur the other evening, but if we keep on waiting the showers will come eventually. If we had our choice we would go aboard the Amberjack in preference to hiking over the world's fair grounds. Give the children a home is as good advice today as it was in grandfather’s time and probably more needed today than ever. We can't stabilise the dollar either. What few come our way flutter this way and that and then ' never come back. Beginning July 1, you can mail a letter at the local postoffice for delivery in Decatur for only two Cents. The three-cent rate applies, on out-of-town mail only. Next comes the Fourth of July, Labor Day and then a lull until Thanksgiving, but in the meanrime the good old summer time is here to enjoy. The July issue of Moose magazine contains a page ad headed, "Happy days are here again,’’ and I does that bring a smile to the nation? Senator Art Robinson announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination and the next day said ' he was going to Alaska. Probably! won't get any cooler reception up there. The government lost its case against Banker Charles Mitchell, a I jury finding him not guilty of the alleged charge of tax evasion. According to the Morgan testimony | Mill owes that banking house ijbout five million dollars and the jury might have thought he couldn't flay anyway. A former investor in Henry Ford's baby auto factory, died the other day and left a fortune of 20 million dollars. He willed the entire amount to humanity, to be used You may eliminate your financial worries by getting a loan from us.

without restriction. Years ago he invested $5,000 with Ford and over a span of less than 30 years saw 1 it grow to tremendous proportions. I, Most of it is now invested in govt eminent and municipal bonds and with all the need for relief in Detroit, it will more than likely come in handy next winter to feed and 1 clothe the poor. J Statistics show that farmers do > not commonly seek escape from ) 5 their financial obligations through bankruptcy. Despite all the finan- ) cial troubles farm owners had in 1 the past few years, less than 5,001) resorted to bankruptcy in 1932. according to figures compiled by the Bureau of Agriculture.’ This was 7.7 per cent of all bankruptcies reported for the period and is an indication that most people are honest and do not want to beat their debts through turns in the law. Many bankruptcies are the result of being the last legal resort in clearing up certain transactions and are not sought as a means to . evade just debts. Frank A. Vanderlip, noted New York banker, in writing for a well known magazine, urges bank reorganization on a "mutual basis," similar to the savings bank system. It goes without saying that systems of doing business vary from time to time and with newstate and national banking laws, changes will be made in banking. But to run a bank on a mutual basis and make it successful, is in opinion, the wrong way to solve the problem. Banking is a profession and how can 50 or 100 men understand the intricate details connected with it and act as of one mind in determing a policy which mignt have far reaching affect later? I In an editorial concerning the renovizing campaigns that have found a welcome in a multitude of American communities, the Saturday Evening Post says: "When a city or a town makes a united effort to improve the local employment and business situation, it also builds up its own confidence. There is less uncertainty end apathy when everybody pitches in to stimulate w-ork of such a useful kind. . ... It is nothing but good local business. But its greatest benefit will come when it is adopted by practically all the cities and towns in the country. The slogan of the renovice movement is a simple one, but for that very reason it is capable of having a far-reaching effect. The slogan is: ‘lf a man drives a nail he helps business’.” There is another good slogan, too, and that one is: "Employment and investment are cheaper than charity.” One of the main purposes of renovizing campaigns is to provide the unemployed with i productive work —as distinct from ! work which is not necessary, and i is given more or less as charity. During the past three years millions of structures — hotels, warehouses, business buildings and resii dences —have been allowed to run , down. Their owners have taken the attitude that economy came first — that they would spend as I little as possible until they could see what was coming. To permit them to go on longer without repairs is the most prodigal kind of luxury. True economy is to proi tect the investment they represent ■ by making improvements and re- . pairs now —when they can be had i at rock-bottom prices. I It’s time to start driving nails. — !

STUDENTSWILL J SAVE COUNTRY Chicago 111. —(UP) —The majority of American students would enlist immediately to save the United States from invasion, but would take their time about joining the army in .any other kind of war. i This fact was brought out recently when college were polled with the "service pledge", It gives the student his choice of three alternatives. In the first he may pledge not to participate in any war except-in case the mainland of the United States in invaded; in the second, he may pledge not to take part in any war whatever; and in the third, he may pledge to participate in. any war. At Dakota Wesleyan University, Mitchell, S. D., 55 students signed the first pledge, 41 the second, and 1 38 per cent the third. Those conducting the survey say this is a , typical poll. Some colleges, however, inclined in the opposite direction. At Boston University School of Theology, almpst two-thirds msolved not to bear arms at any time. Students at Northwestern University held a debate, at the e:.d of ' which the audience voted, 68 to 17 Dot to take part in international ' war to defend the Constitution of the United States." oNEWSPAPER MAN MAY FILL POST (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Indiana.
