Nelson, local attorney for the Home Owners Corporation has received a prospectus, showing all the details of the bonds issued by that corporation and fully establishing the fact that they are in every way desirable. Determinants of the investment status of the bonds are: Interest is guaranteed by the U. S. government until July 1, 1351. Acceptable as collateral of R. F. C. at 80% of par. Secured by real estate at deflated values. Acceptable at par as security for postal savings and other Federal funds. Entirely tax exempt, except for estate and inheritance taxes. Acceptable by all Federal banks as collateral for loans. Acceptable at par by the (Home Owners Loan Corporation against obligation of its debtors. These bonds will, it is assured, be made legal investments for insurance companies, trust funds, estates, etc. It Is the opinion of many financiers that these bonds, which run for eighteen years, pay 4% interest annually, with payments January Ist and July Ist. promptly, will become as valuable as any on the market. They have many advantages over ordinary bonds and based on present real estate values are certainly as sound as a security can be made. Attorney Nelson declares, as does every one who has investigated. that there is every reason why any one should desire as many of these securities as he can invest in, and none why he should not. No public offering of these bonds is now being made. They will be issued to take up pressing loans of home owners, for the present a temporary receipt being used until the bonds can be prepared. The Central Sugar Company plant and yards are almost ready f:r the hig campaign which will open early in October and continue as long as the beets come in. Indications for a large crop are exce'lent, considering the rather poor stand secured because of the heavy rains last spring and the long dry spell which followed.

The Improvements are permanent, Indicating that the company Is building for years to come. More than 15,000 men will soon he working on the state highways, a part of the combination of Federal and state organizations, providing employment and working on 1 the most Important public improvement. The cotie fixes thirty hours as the week but with pay ranging from 47 cents per hour to 55 cents. Unfortunately the contracts do not include any local county jobs, though we still feel sure that some | provisions will be made to take care of many of the unemployed in this county. “Ike" Hoover, chief usher at the White House, since 1890, and who knew more public men than any other person in America, who was 1 loved by every President and every member of the family since Harris- 1 on's time, died suddenly of a heart i attack.. Some idea of the high re- 1 gard in which he was held. Is \ shown by the fact that his funeral is to be held from the \Vhite House, an honor never accorded any person except that of Presidents or members of a President's family. The Republicans are going to call in the members of the state committee who served prior to 1932, evidently figuring those who were on the firing line last year, were no good. Well any one who would have had charge last year, would have got bumped or at least that’s the judgment of those who have sized up returns from every part of the country. Buy now. Every penny you spend the next few weeks will help j the big campaign to better times and conditions. It is not a political movement, but an American ' drive that every good citizen can and should take active part in. Unless there is a greater circulation of money the NRA cannot succeed. Those who have added to their overhead must have an increased volumn or they cannot long continue. They money you spend now will aid that cause. All over Indiana next week the tax boards will have a puzzle to work out —how to cut the proposed rates in two and still meet all necessary bills. It’s going to take i sharp lead pencils. 4 - 0 i | Household Scrapbook I _ B y— Roberta lee j Moths The average housewife is very careful to store the last season’s clothes and take every precaution against moths, but many do not realize that if dirt is allowed to accumulate in the sweeper it will breed moths by the dozens The Wash Wringer The rubber rolls on the wringer will last longer if the pressure is r moved when they are not in use.

HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION PROVIDES EMPLOYMENT FOR JOBLESS ____________________

Indianapolis Sept. 16—(Special) —How highway construction pro- | vides jobs is vividly demonstrated !on the concrete paving project on State Road 3, south of Rushvill Here more than 4-on men. furnishled by the Unemploment Relief I Commission of Rush county, are j laying an 11-mile pavement spon- ! sored by the Indiana State HighI way Commission and the Federal government. Every man with the exception of the foreman and a few skilled workmen, is a Rush county resident who has been on the county’s unemployment relief list. These men work tmd?r the same V » £ m

, restrictions on employment and us§ of mechanical equipment as are now prescribed for federal aid |on National R rovery Highway j ! Projects. The workmen have averaged 12009 feet of pavement a dayworking 30 hours a week on two six-hour shifts as provided by the NRA. The new pavement shortens the distance between Rushville and > GreneSburg several miles, meaning a saving of time and operating cost to motorists. The pavement is 20-feet wide with eight-foot shoulders on a 60-foot right-of -way. B. ■ R. Smith is the state highway cn-

gineer in charge of the project which includes several small bridges. Beside providing employment for ov r 430 Rush county men the paving is boosting the income of many farmers in the community. Nearly 300 tons of straw was purchased to cover the freshly laid pavement. In addition much is being spent for other materials purchased locally giving more local buying power. This proje- t is one of many in progress over the state on which the working force is drawn from I the local unemployed. The work going on now is indicative of the employment to be provided when Indiana get under way with the projects to be built with the $10,000,000 allotted to this 1 state fro mthe Federal road fund of $400,000,000. • - ■* Many Reunions Scheduled For Summer Months ♦ ♦ Sunday, September 17 Twenty-second annual Summers reunion, Lakeside Park, Fort i Wayne.

To remember that we are In a war, and that if it was all right for the government to a»k a few million hoys to give thoir lives to settle a disturbance in Europe It must be fairly reasonable to roquest a few million merchants to endure a little discomfort for the common good. To beer in mind that, after all, this time Uncle Sent is not asking me to leave my home and my family and show a machine gun squad tl can take It. "5. To realize that patriotism 1* patriotism, even when there are no bugles. "6. To regard the Blue Eagle as a Blue Eagle and not as a C’hiselbeaked Woodpecker. “7.

To develop a rousing hatred of trickery, chiseling and the old ‘runaround.’ “10. To have no time for the fellow who would rather obstruct a plan that might cost him a SSOO-a year loss than to support a plan that would enable ten million people to eat regularly. “11. To stop talking about Interference with natural economic laws ‘lnevitable business cycl s,’ etc., and to realize that nobody got a wrecked truck out of a ditch by cit- j ing precedents. ”12. To remember that we wenall demanding action—and that fin- I ally we got it. "13. To realize when in a critical mood toward Littie Nira that nobody has suggested a better plan for quick action. 14. To be willing to taike it on : the nose for a year (if absolutely j necessary) to cure a national headache. "15. To keep ever foremost In the inind. when talking anout the sacrifice being asked of me, that, after all. I’m not asked to put on a uniform, go to France, dodge shrapnel, sleep in the mud and get what comfort I can out of the fact a girl named Nellie is knitting me a pair of socks. "16. To work more and talk less, always realizing that it is impossible to pull a drowning man out of a well by throwing him a plate of boloney.
