Up to yesterday, sixty-eight Decatur firms and business heads had signed the NRA agreements, a fine showing and done with enthusiasm as there has been no drive here. It will eventually be a hundred per cent. Will you give a book or two or what you feel you can spare to the library? They are asking donations at this time because the appropriations the past year did not cover any new books. Os course cash gifts will be accepted and with man y • thanks. A hundred pheasants are to be turned loose in Adams county within the next week or two and every good sportsman will assist the wardens in protecting them as well as all other game. If this is done, within a few years, there Will be much game in season, to the benefit of many. President Roosevelt is studying the kidnaping problem and when he gets through, he will, if he keep* up with his fast record, have the proper and speedy solution. And its time to act. During recent months, this form of banditry, has grown rapidly and has hec. me a real menace to the country. It is estimated that already more than a million jobs have been provided under the Recovery program and the campaign is just started. By the end of this month several times that number of idle men will have been put on the pay roll and will again be earning their way and accordingly happy. Os course its going to work. Clothing and shoes for the needy are requested by Trustee Thomas Noll. There is a demand right now for clothing for children so they may attend school, which opens next month. Ts you can do so, send clothing and shoes to the old Moose home on Third Street, Tuesday or Saturday mornings and it will be dispersed to those who require it. These things will save the township much money. New NRA signs are going up daily and it won’t be long until the place of business without one will be the exception and not a very popular one at that. The administration Is out to do a good job of this matter and while willing to be fair with every one, they also expect a full measure of patriotic cooperation from each concern which expects to live from the public.

It doesn't seem possible that a year has passed since we were worrying about the tax budgets but here we are again with the same old problem. This year in Adams county and Decatur, however, the going will be easier because of the excellent work done last year. Os course the various officials will remember that we are not out of our difficulties and continue the fight to keep down tax overhead. The federal court has upheld Governor McNutt’s reorganization act, by passing on the question of new appointments on the agricultural board. Other features of the laws wilt In due time be held good, but we presume there will have to be tests and that the adminlstra tion favors them. It would be rather queer if the legislature did not have the right to change the terms of officers and otherwise direct them in tune with the times. The President has asked for a fair deal for the employer who hires only a few people. There are some difficulties in complying with the general code and most of these employers are willing to do any thing they ran to back up the administration but hesitate to sign up until they know just what they are doing. Those who are really trying to work it out will be given credit but It must be remembered ( that they can’t put it off indefinitely without incurring displeasure' and whatever the results are. The ten mfllion dollars for use of the Indiana highway commission has been allotted by the government and it is expected this work will start immediately and continue a year or more. Much of the money, about half, we are informed, will be used to improve streets in towns over 2.500. It is hoped that some of this money will be spent in Adams county. No. 16 from here to Markle should be paved with concrete and the road between here and Willshire, it has been promised, will be completely rebuilt.
