the outlook Is brighter than it has been in live years, quite a difference from a year ago. The kidnapers should realize ' that newspaper editors are usually so desperate that they arc ready I to resist most any effort that means the loss ot time. The fellow who , tackled E. P. Adler, head of the • Lee syndicate which operates a ’ dozen papers in the middle west, bumped into a regular cyclone ! which wound up in the arrest of [ the kidnaper, a Charles Clyde Phil- , lips of New York City. 1 All but one of the jurors in the I Wynekoop murder trial are under thirty years of age. For some reason the ageil lady doctor who is charged with the murder of her daughter-in-law desired a young jury. Interest in the case has lagged somewhat, we presume because so many things have occurred since the original trial a month ago to distract attention, but as it proceeds we have no doubt there will be plenty of headlines. CWA employes are not compelled to buy goods or patronize any ( one in particular to retain employment, according to word sent out from the office of William H. Book, state administrator and that even includes new-papers. We haven't any idea what he is driving at for we don’t believe any one in this county has been even trying to take advantage of the efforts to restore prosperity, but its alright to call attention to the matter. General Hugh Johnson, national recovery administrator, invites .criticisms and suggestions to improve the NRA mid that’s a smart idea, quite a reversal of former plans. This does not mean that I every one who wishes to say somothing mean and ugly or to play petty politics will be given free rein, but it does mean that those who feel they have suggestions that will really and trully help get us

out, of the depression, will be heard apd listened to. Sherman Minton, public counselor of Indiana, outstanding as an orator and a leader in the American Legion, is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for United States senator, being the fifth to announce. The others are R. Ear) Peters, Albert 11. Cole, George RaiTch and W. N.. White. Several others are contemplating an announcement and it looks as though the scrap will wax as warm as the contests tor places on county and township tickets, all of which will create a lot of interest and good results. o ♦ — + Answers To Test Questions Below are the Answers to the Test Questions Printed on Page Two. ♦ - ♦ 1.
