Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies^ More than thirty-six thousand people registered at the Dairy Day stand of the Cloverleaf Creameries, Inc., at Huntington yesterday and every one of them had a good time. Just when we thought the tax problem had been solved, we discover that debts and bills can’t be paid without money and that some way or other we still have to pay. You may get around the NRA orders but it will not be the wise thing in the long run. The government intends to keep right after those who do not patriotically meet the requirements. The fellow who used to work twelve hours is now given to understand that if he can't do the same amount in six or.seven hours, he can't expect to keep his name on the pay roll. The radio broadcasting campaign for S6OO is about over the top and Hurl Johnson, in charge, is hoping’ to finish it today. That’s doing a worth while job in a hurry and that’s the proper way to do them. Decatur will have to start early and keep working to make the next Dairy Day the best one ever held. The one at Huntington yesterday was a whiz bang with plenty of enthusiasm and something doing every minute. AJ Smith is supporting the NRA movement. Os course he would, even though he may feel that some other plan would have proven better. We can’t try every thing at one time and the main thing is to get our people all working together on one plan. Clyde Kinsey, 33 years old, of Springfield, Mo., was married today for his tenth venture, this time going back to wife number eight. There ought to be some means of putting a brake on that guy for something is evidently wrong with him or his temper. A Vincennes boy was shot the other evening, while stealing melons from a farmer’s patch. Now the police are searching for the man who fired the shot. We don't profess to know any thing about detecting, but we wonder if they have interviewed the • man who owned the melons. In Indianapolis 55,000 consumers have agreed to stand by those who are cooperating in the NRA movement. Nearly two thousand people have been put to work there by

875 firma and the Improvement in general conditions are already Quite, noticeable. The big drive has just started. It wttl continue until it , is complete and the results will be satisfactory. ’ "Where do we go from here?” was the title of Mr. Kraft's address at tile Dairy Day meeting yesterday. an appeal to all to support President Roosevelt in his great campaign to bring back normal conditions and to make every one happier. lie impressed the thousands who heard him with his sincerity and his clear thinking. Decatur will have the next Dairy Day, it was unanimously voted st the banquet which dosed the Hunttington meeting last night, after Colonel Fred Reppert had extended a hearty welcome on behalf of this community. When the dates are set and the plans determined, it is needless to say that every one here, will go down the line to provide a great program for the thousands who will accept the invitations. Slate police today started after those motorists who use one light on their car or otherwise have faulty illumination. Many accidents have resulted from the fact that ligiits of approaching cars were bad and A1 Feeny, director of public safety, has ordered corrections. Local officers are asked to cooperate and those who continue to violate the laws regarding car lights, will be brought into court. That dairying is a great industry and a big part of successful farming. is certainly admitted by all who attended the big event at Huntington yesterday, where there was enthusiastic support for every thing which had to do with butterfat. milk, cheese and other products of that kind. Talk to any of those who so engage and you are soon convinced that they are well pleased witli the future outlook for the business.

EXPENSES OF STATE LOWER Comparisons of Cost of State Government Are Published Indianapolis, Aug. 25. -(Special) —Expenses of Indiana's state government for the first seven mouths of the administration of Gov. Paul V. McNutt were $3,362,750.48 less than for the first seven months of 1933. according to figures compiled in the office of Floyd E. Williamsen, auditor of state. All money paid from the state treasury during the seven months amounted to $30,662,396.91 as compared to disbursements of $30,958,965.03 for the first seven months of 1932. Included in this figure, however. are distributions of gasoline tax and school funds back to local taxing units as well as refunds made by the gasoline tax division. While the governmental expenses were being reduced at the rate of $15,862.03 every day or $660.92 ail hour and sll.Ol a minute, the money being sent back by the state to local governmental units to decrease property taxes increased by $3,188,378.35. Every day during those seven months the state spent $15.862.031 less an don each day of the seven months the state sent $15,039.52 more back to the local taxing units and the people of Indiana. Most significant is the fact that the expenditures in the state general fund declined by $757,807.69 during the first seven months. This is the running expenses of. the state government and it offers both the most opportunity for extravagance and thg best chance to' save. Gov. McNutt recently an-, nounced publicly that he is proud the expenditures from this fund have declined at the rate of more than SIIO,OOO a month. Although the state highway com- 1

An Increase in the responsibilities of the automobile license division due to the new drivers' license law and the truck weight tax law, together with the necessary readjustment of the department in line with the reorganization program iu the state government, made necessary an increase in the expenditures of this division from $140,949.95 to $176,698.93. comprising the two years. Increased miscellaneous and institutional expenses are accounted for principally by the fact that prices are rising, that tho new state library is now being paid for, and that superintendents at the institution found it necessary to make long needed improvements. Gov. McNutt has called attention to the fact that the reduction of more than three and one-quarter mHllbn dollars in expenses was accomplished a a time when increases normally would have been expected because of the drastic reorganization program which finally has consolidated all the state's 169 departments into eight departments. Now that the reorganization is practically complete, the governor said, further economies will be effected by giving attention to the smaller details of the state's business.

Aug. 25 tU.fi) —Controlled production is the bed rock of agricultural prosperity. Henry Wallace, secretary of agriculture, said In a message to SO,OOO tlairy farmers attending the fourth annual state wide dairy day celebration here last night. The agricultural secretary wired his message in a congratulatory message to spousors of the celebration. The importance of dairying to agriculture as a wVole and the necessity for cooperation on the part of dairy farmers, manufacturers, and dairy product consumers was stressed by J. L. Kraft, Chicago,' in one of the principal addresses of the afternoon session. "The time is past when one branch of an industry can fatten at the expense of another We

must cooperate to establish a basis of understanding," Kralt, said. Summing up problems of the dairy Industry, he said, “Overproduction and underconsumption are two phases of the problem we have to solve. Wo are faced with a double program of forcing into consumption a tremendous surplus, and of restoring a profitable price to producers.” First Trolley Csr Retired Bristol, Conn.— (U.fi) —After 33 years of faithful service, the first trolley car operated by the Bristol Traction Company has been retired.
