Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dallies. "F. D." NOSE FOR NEWS: Raymond Clapper tells us that the House and Senate press gallery now numbers 435 newspaper correspondents, a new high record. indicating how the eyes ot' the nation are turned toward Washington. These men, we think, are doing an excellent job for the press ! and people. Never in our exper-. ience have we seen so much solid ' publie information in the daily, prints. It can never he said that in the crisis the press failed to function to capacity, tilling the citizen taxpayer what he has a right to know about public business. And our hats are off to writing men who can keep intelligently abreast of the swirling tide of events, mastering in a few minutes' or hours intricate matters in the realms of politics, economics and sociology The Washington correspondent in these hectic days must be both physically and mentally agile, for he has a wide beat to cover and may be called upon ’ one moment to write on the gold problem, of which it is said that no one really can understand it, and the next moment to deal glibly „ with such complexities as farm control, banking, stock market | regulation, NRA codes or any of a thousand problems. We appreciate this good work, but we are bound also to salute ] the I’residen 1 , who has set an extraordinary pace of candor in press relations. Here is a chief executive who sits down and talks in friendly and utterly frank fashion with reporters. He tells them what they want to know, for the record and off of ii. He enables them to work sensibly. He trusts them and | calls them by their given names. Mr. Roosevelt has demonstrated that this fine principle in free gov-j . ernmenr will work if sincerely tried. Naturally, the Washington correspondents’ corps sits admiringly at the President’s knee. They call him a shining genius in public relations. Politicians may believe that Mr. Roosevelt is shrewd about such matters, but the reporters at Washington say that he is also kindly and fair, and has a nose for news. Anyhow, the Washington situation is a pleasant one, journalistically speaking. — Editor and Publisher Magazine. Decatur now has four regularly employed policemen, working on eight-hour shifts. The addition of one, man to the forte was made to provide better protection during the night and to lessen the hours of those on the beats. Provision was made in the budget last fall to employ an extra man and citizens will no doubt appreciate the safeguard installed to protect their interests. " x • The average person, including lite writer, may not know much about the monetary question or the revaluing of Hie dollar, but most’ anyone caw understand the messages of President Roosevelt. He has the gift of putting it in plain English,- and can interpret seem-

ingly difficult question* so that the country gets some Idea what he is trying to do. Sentiment exists for beautifying the south end ot the Adams County Memorial hospital grounds, making It a recreation or park center for the residents of the Decatur Homestead division. Landscape gardeners. Including authorities like Mr. Hull of Purdue, stute that the work could be done at little expense and could be carried on at small cost later. The idea is worth ' considering and if for no other reason would enhance the sur-' roundings of the hospital. It is with deep regret that the ■ terrible auto accident, claiming the lives of three people, two of' whom lived in Decatur and Adams ■ county. is-recorded. These tragedies bring sorrow to friends of i Hie victims and the sympathy of j the community is extended to the William Engle family. Gold pieces will not be coined in the future and it will be impossible for individuals to hoard great stores of the precious metal. The government will own all gold, the bullion being the backbone ot money issued. Tickets for the ball for the President go on sale this week. They will be at-a premium before the 1 date of holding the party arrives, I I so assure yourself of getting one i by purchasing one this week. Revaluing the dollar at 60 centa will tend to increase commodity) prices and wider circulation of the medium of exchange, which is one of the purposes of the President’s plan. These sun shiny days make you feel better and before long will give you spring ideas. Correction The wrong price was given in the ad of the Schafer Store in Monday's issue of the Daily Democrat. The price quoted on Block washers was 95fM»#r-The correct price is $79.50. The compositor set the wrong figure and the error was not noticed on the proof. o Answers To Test Questions ; Below are the Answers to the i Test Questions Printed on Page Two. ♦ —■* 1 Banda of English workmen organized for the destruction of labor saving machinery. 2.

There must be a purposeful prevailing prayer.” ,o—.

Household Scrapbook — BY—- — LEE Olive Oil Olive oil is excellent for one who desires to take on weight, but many people will not fake it on account of its not being palatable to them. However, if a pinch of salt is added to a wineglass of oil, this is often overcome. Stuffed Dates or Prunes First wash, dry and stone the fruit, then cut almost in nail and fill with a half marshmallow, blanched almond, or chopped nuts and raisins. Roll in sugar.
