THAWING FROZEN DEPOSITS: President Roosevelts plan for, the setting up of a Federal deposit ; liquidation hoard to thaw out It,000,000.000 of frozen deposits in cl >sed banks should prove stimulating to business as well as a great benefit to Americans who have been the victims of bank failures. It is not the intention to have the Federal body cash the worthless assets of insolvent banks, but to advance cash on securities that have real value. The depositors j thus will get money and the gov-I ernment will do the waiting until I the assets can be liquidated in the usual way. The result of the proposal will be to pour 11,000,000,000 of new money into the pockets of the people. That will be immediately helpful. as the recipients will spend or deposit their money, and it will be added to the volume of banking resources available for every legitimate demand of business and industry. The distribution of that billion, which will be provided through the reconstruction finance corporation, should go a long way towards silencing those who are clamoring for inflafltion. It would be. in fact, a species of inflation without the risks and uncertainties ordinarily associated with the idea of cheapening the national currency. It is not unlikely that the government would he loser to same extent in the attempt at thawing frozen assets. Those might not pay out as well as expected, despite the care to be taken to prevent loss. But whatever of loss there might be would be a gain to the deposit rs. They would get the money and put it back into the channels of trade. So that even a treasury shrinkage on the billion-dollar .transaction would not lie a total .loss, so far as the government is concerned. The plan is a practical way of doing in a hurry what bank receivers and others would take months or even years to accomplish for the depositors tn their hour of need. —Indianapolis Star. - Mr. Hoffman is completing the big job of securing easements on road 527 between here and Willshire and indications are that the ,job can be included in the November letting. He reports excellent cooperation and in only two or l three cases, where some slight dispute as to damages arose, was it necessary to send in condemnation cards. We hope and believe this will not delay the letting of the contract for it is quite important that this be done now when the funds are available rather than to wait until next year, when the opportunity may have slipped by. It will be a splendid road and is J Seldom is a funeral problem mentioned we have not solved for someone far or near. W. H.

appreciated because this has always been one cf the leading arteries to Decatur, teaching a splendid territory that extends over into Ohio. Al G. Feeney, state safety director, is a real fellow and a capable official. He announces, following an investigation of how the hunt for the prisoners who escaped from Michigan City prison recently was conducted, that a shake-up will occur in the state police force. In his efforts to build this organization to a point of high efficiency. Feeney will have the support of every good citizen. They can do much towards eliminating crime if they act promptly and when trained to the point where it is known they “get their ?nan" once they, they start after him, they will have established a feeling of safety for every one. — The tax hearings now being held 1 here and elsewhere prove that the I taxing officials desire to give those ' ! who feel they have a complaint I i every right to be heard and if they 1 ! have any means of reducing taxes without injury to themselves or the community, they are assured they 1 will get the reduction of rates. In ' this county we are sure every effort | has been made to He economic and ' at the same time meet the requirements of the laws and that's all that can be done if we would maintain our credit standing. We want to express our sincere thanks to Mr. Hoffman for his excellent work in securing right-of-ways on road 527. He has been courteous and helpful and has made friends with those whom he contacted. He is a valuable man for the state highway commission and wTU be welcomed back to Adams county any time they see fit to send him. If a special session of the legislature can be held for the sole purpose of passing a law which will , comply with the federal requiremeMt# /nd enable Indiana to secure $15,000,000 for highway improvements, as suggested by Senator Van Nuys, lets have the session. It should however not be a meeting for the purpose of playing petty politics. Aimee McPherson, the red haired evangelist, is trying to break in ' to vaudeville while Texas Guinan ] of night club reputation, somewhat shady, is preaching on the Pacific coast. Some folks are never quite satisfied with their avocation. o CHURCH REVIVALS Church of God Tonight is the last night of the revival at the Church of God. This will be perhaps, the most outstanding service of the series of meetings. We want you to be present at this service and enjoy it with us. Rev. Bright will speak on a subject of special interest to us all. Hear his message tonight. A cordial invitation is given to all. A warm welcome awaits you. Come! o • Gospel Temple Brother Roth and wife were with us Tuesday night and brought the message in song. Rev. Barker used |as his text. "Tithing. How Much Shall I Give?” Mai. 3:8. There will be no services tonight. The next services will be Thursday i night at 7:30 o’clock.

was expected to take its turn at the various tasks, such as laundry, dormitory, dishwashing, serv- ( ing. baking and food preparation. We had to do each task twice and attend lectures throughout the j j course. From 4 to 5 p. m. each • i day, was our rest period. We had a large dining room full j ! of tables, each table seating about ’ 'twelve. Approximately one hunj dred and fifty ate their meals . here three times a day. Some i times we entertained former | state fair school girls at meal time.; The first Sunday we had Sunday i School in our large lecture room. ■ At 9:30 we were taken in buses ; i to the Evangelical church where j i we heard a fine sermon by Rev. Mueller, the subject was. “Apples of Gold in Baskets of Silver.” At 1:30 in the afternoon, dressed in our uniforms of cadet blue I i dresses with white collars and, 1 cuffs, we were taken on buses through Indianapolis on a sight I seeing trip. We saw the gover-1 nor's -home. State house, Soldiers and Sailors Monument and visited different parks. Taps were sounded at 9:30 each ] . evening which meant lights out i . and every one in bed and quiet. Two banquets were given, one ; ! for the honor girls and the other | for the legislative body, so we all | got to see our governor and hear him speak. The second Sunday we went to ■ Sunday School and church with the boys from the Boy's Camp and we walked a distance of about two ! miles. p That evening the boys had a

picnic at their camp for the girts. After eats we had a program, , which we all enjoyed. The follow-] ing Monday evening the girls had ' a party for the boys, in our large ; lecture room. We played games, j had a short program and then all j joined in singing some songs. " Each evening of the fair, dress- i ed in our uniforms, girts and boys, I led by the band, marched into the ■ . Coliseum. For two different eve- 1 nings we occupied the grandstand and saw the free acta and fire , works. Tuesday. September 5, we spent ’ the day uptown. We went through : | the Herron Art Building, which was very interesting. From there we went to the j Scottish Rite Cathedral, an immense building, which cost four i million dollars. We were shown ' . through the entire building. It > had the world's best pipe organ; ' lit was equal to five organs. It | could be played in a manner that J would sound like some instrument- 1 :al solo in some far oft room. It j ■ also had the world’s best furnishled stage. Around fifteen hundred i dollars was spent extra on the i floor in the ball room to make ft dead to echoes, which als6 made j it wonderful for dancing. We went through the Indianapolis market, after which we had J dinner at Ayres. We visited the different departments of this store. From 1:15 to 3:15 in the after- ! noon we were guests at the Circle Theater. From there we attended 1 a tea at Banners. We got back to the Woman’s bulding about five

Wednesday RveninjL September 6, we held a caudle light service on the lawn of the Womans building Miss Cage rear! a chapter from the Bible, after which a prayer was offered by Mrs. Foster, and as the candles were lighted, we sang. “Follow the Gleam. It was a dark night, so it was a very ImpreMive service. At 9 a. m. Friday. September 8. we were dismissed from classes so we could make preparations to come home. Pollyanna Lehman and I spent the remainder of the day at the fair, leaving at 6 p. m. with Pollyanna's parents, for home, which ended a wonderful two weeks. ’ x I'nder the caption, "Echoes of the State Fair School,” I will give in condensed form, some of the lessons we had. including our quotation for the day. In that way, 1 can share with you, some of the good things we were taught. This is made possible, through the courtesy of the Dally Democrat. ELIZABETH BIEHOLD o - Don’t burn your leaves!
