That a few tonics like this will encourage every one goes without saying. Its going over, the NR A is a success. The state tax will be fifteen cents, it is announced, though official action will not be taken until next week. The rate will not surprise many for that is the limit and it was not expected that any saving could be effected on the budget this year. Towns in Indiana will provide interest this year when they vote on officials November 7th. While these elections will as always, be largely local, the national and state trend will be seen to some extent, it is predicted by leading politicians. Any way every one will be watching for results. Shorter hours for labor may help in putting men back to work but any further revision of hours will probably effect those now on the regular pay rolls, for there is a limit to where the average manulacturer can go in his costs and at the same time sell his product. It seems better to step just a little cautiously until we see where we are going. Maine lined up and so did Minnesota, Colorado and Maryland for repeal, making a total of thirty and leaving only a half dozen necessary to complete it. Whether you favor it or not, the fact remains that repeal- of the eighteenth amendment is close at hand and ahead of it is the age-old problem of how to best control the hard liquor traffic. That should have the ?jest effort of every one. Banks and building loan associations may accept bonds of the Federal Home Owners Loan corporation, it has been ruled by Attorney General Lutz. The bonds are as good as any you can buy, for they are backed by the property involved at not to exceed an 80% value and the interest is guaranteed by the government and will be promptly met.

associations, aidlug In the revival of business In numerous ways as well as saving homes for thousands I of people. Henry Ford may be doing some dodging but eventually he will line i up with the NBA because on Its success depends the future of Ford ■ as well as every one else. And its going to succeed. It may be a little slow for a short time but with mil- , lions back at work and with the 1 general desire of every one, to get I away from the depression, by the 1 close of the year we should be going along nicely. And then for 1934, which ought to be one of the best years in a long time. George M Sunday, whose death occurred yesterday had a career any thing but what his parents desired for him. He apparently was spoiled by the success of his capable father, the famous evangelist, Hilly Sunday, received an excellent education but devoted much time | to the entertainments of the mod- ! era youth. He had been engaged in several scandals and just before he fell or jumped from a window in San Francisco a week ago, had quarrelled and (ought with his wife and mother. It was a regrettable ending to what should have been a useful life. The Century of Progress has already had receipts of more than twenty million dollars, of which only one fourth is from admissions. That the big exposition will show a profit, wonderful and impossible as that seemed last spring when frantic efforts to conclude prepar ations were being made, is now admitted. Those in charge deserve much credit. They have given a really great fair, have protected their patrons and have helped the entire middle west by giving every one a feeling of optimism and by proving that they are never whipped. Business in Indiana has been decidedly on the upgrade during the past three months as it has affected the consumption of imported goods, according to a report compiled at the district customs office here. The report issued by Wray E. Fleming, collector of customs for the district, shows a 65 percent increase in the value of goods imported into Indiana during June, July, and August as compared to the valuation of imports for the same three months of last year. At the same time, the duty collected on the imports during the three months this year represents an increase of more than one hundred per cent over the duty received on imports in the district the three months of last year. Business carried on in the customs district in June, July, and August this year brought in duty collections of $31,952.20 compared to $15,353.74 collected the same three months of last year, or an increase of $16,592.46. The value of the goods received this year during the three months was $132,281 and in 1932 it was $86,055, the increase this year being $56,226. There was also a decided gain this year in withdrawals from the customs warehouse where certain types of imports are quartered to be withdrawn as needed and the duty paid at the time of the withdrawal. Duty on warehouse withdrawals in the three months ol last year netted only $1,506.70, while the report shows that in the same three months this year the withdrawals brought collections amounting to $16,301.85. Foreign shipments to Indiana concerns during the three months covers a long list of many necessities and luxuries. There were linens, gloves, china, glassware, porcelin, toys, rugs, structural materials, machinery, drugs, seedlings, fish, logs, veneer, fabrics and important drugs.

noted M-G-M designer, blasts any idea that hips are coming back. The slender style mentor for Greta Garbo, Marion Davies, Norma Shearer and Joan Crawford waxes emphatic. i “Keep the hips under control,” he warns. “Regardless of fashion and the interest of curves, there will never come that day

when women lose their sense of proportion as it pertains to their own figures. They ■ will never grow so enthusiastic that hips will become wider than shoulders.” Having forecast the return of prewar fashions nine months ago, Adrian predicts that they will take added momentum in the coming spring, with concentration on skirts. “Although the broad shoulder will be of importance,” he explains, “it will be insinuated rather than exaggerated. From every fashion comes a lasting mark on the silhou--1 ette if it has been a help to the figure of women—as the vogue for bobbed hair which will survive because it adds to a youthful appearance. So it will be with the broad shoulder if done with less enthusiasm and more knowledge.” Adrian says that the fashions of the prewar era were slightly overcome by their own fussiness. The spring silhouette, he declares, will overcome this tendency with mod- ’ ern restraint. Credit Sidney Sutherland with one of the better stories of the week. The other night a Hollywood sce- > narist showed up at a party slightly intoxicated and with his right hand covered with grease and soot. 8 Everybody wanted to know what t was the idea. | “I've been down to the station see-

The Los Angeles alumni chapter of the fraternity has filed a protest with its national officers against Monogram Pictures calling a college film, “The I Sweetheart of Sigma Chi.” No legal recourse is planned, but the local alumni want the public to be told that the picture is not sponsored by the fraternity. The title — “The Sweetheart of Sigma Chi"—also is the title of the fraternity’s official song.

I o Time Tables Take Rhode Island Man Around World Woonsocket, R. I„ — (U.R) —Buell W. Hudson makes “trips around the world,’’ in his own home, without cost. He’s an imaginative globe-trotter, who-enjoys the thrills of travel along with the comforts of home. His hobby has long been collecting time-tables and his travel library now consists of 5,000 of them, ' printed in 20 languages. To most folk, time-tables, bare of pictures, would be pretty dry, but Hudson finds them fascinating. “Who,’’ he muses, "would dream that Cario has one of the fastest j trains in the world, or that in India It is necessary to get off the i train to reach the dining car because the trains have no corri--1 dors?’’ According to Hudson, there are some 500 time-table collccters in the United States, mostly ex-rail--1 road men. o Coin Picked C. of C.
