Dillinger may drop in some of these days if he is touring northern Indiana. He stopped at Warsaw yesterday, according to reports. Business is picking up. The Erie will add two new trains and they will lie of the new air-conditioned variety, as fine as you will find on any road. The trains will stop in Decatur of course. That night policeman over at ■Warsaw who claims to have upset •John Dillinger's machine gun, may •be just a headline hunter. We -have such animals in Indiana it -seems and they run all the way ""from night guards to Prof. Wirt. Judge Murray of Crown Point . finally came to and dismissed the contempt cases against the grand jurors who reported on the Dilling..er case, after going “to the bottom "of the thing ’ as instructed by the ' judge. * Pay your state income tax by to- * morrow. If you have it in the ■ mails by the 15th you are alright - and i; will help keep the schools of • Indiana going. It's a lust tax be- . cause the real estate cannot go on , carrying the load and he sooner * we build up other tax income, the • better it will be. ——" ■ After the tough times Detroit „ has experienced the past five years, ~ it looks strange indeed that the men should insist on going on a J strike about the time one of the factories lands a few orders. There - may be some good reasons but we - swear we can't imagine what they are. Governor Paul V. McNutt will act “as temporary chairman at the • Democratic state convention and ■ Senator Fred VanNuys will be permanent presiding officer. That will mean two wonderful speeches « tor if these two leaders can't make ' speeches worth hearing, there just ” aren't any. The Republican press and paid publicists are making a great effort - to gain some advantage as a re- < suit of the Wirt episode in Wash- - ington. There wasn't any thing to - the charges, and the committee did

right in not letting it get to a point where a lot of talk on such a silty subject as this country turning “red'' would be used as political j, bunk. Prof. Wirt has drawn his expenses, had a nice trip and returned home, a wiser man. No one 1 in Indiana thinks he was any thing but a good American .during the • war or since but there are a lot of ' others who are just as good Americans. ' For the ben ’fit of the Berne Witi ( ness or any one else in distress for i fear of the part the Daily Democrat ' has taken or will take in the prii , mary election, may we state again i as we frequently have, that we have no desire to be political bosses. We hope the voters will use their best judgment in selecting candidates and we have faith in them doing so. This is a Democratic county and the Witness can wallow around in the slime of untruthful intimations to their heart's content without doing great harm or changing the opinions of many. After all its up to the Voters and as always, we shall keep hands off. By the way, tile Witness might with proper rights, look over their owu entries. Governor McNutt will accomplish a popular reform if he is success ful in rigidly restricting the questionable use of official position in appearances before any governmental boards. Lawyers on the state's pay roll have been barred from representing clients who have business with Hoosier boards apd commissions. Heads of departments received formal notification by the executive office. Violation of the rule will result in dismissal of the offender. That order is entirely consistent with sound public practice and the attempt to enhance general respect for those In office. It should be an unwritten law throughout the land, although self-interest usually takes precedence over purist theories unless its inroads are specifically prohibited. The client with business to transaet before a state board assumes that an attorney connected with other state offices will have an "inside track.'’ The lawyer thus maybe retained more for his connections than his ability. It also is conceivable that he may misrepresent the strength of his political pull.—lndianapolis Star. o Uncle ■ur cmarlex Jb < says: by CWARLEY CRANT *> vq. - No sah, a feller kin never set ‘ th’ world afire by sparkin'.

To prove their point they cite at least three cases of parted stars slowly, but surely, drifting to- ■ pettier again. Ruth Chatterton, who divorced Ralph Forbes and married George Brent, is one example. With 1 the break-up of the Chatterton-Brent idyll, gossips predict Forbes will once more lead Miss Chatterton to the sitar. Then, too, although Harry Bannister has been reported engaged several times since his divorce from Ann Harding, the betting is that they'll remarry. The breach between Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks grows narrower daily. Trans-Atlantic telephone conversations, flowers and birthday greetings by cable, are I straws that show how the wind blows with the bounding Doug and “America’s Sweetheart.’’

The matter was brought to a 1 head by several candidates on j both parties n the county asking i that their names be withdrawn i from the ballots on the grounds ■ that their names were filed without the knowledge of the candi- > dates. L. E. Archbold has filed a demand through I,ls attorney that i his name be removed as a candi-1 date for the state Democratic convention. In the motion he stated his name was placed on the ballot "without his knowledge or consent." Archbold feels that his position as Adams county agricultural agent is a non-partisan office and that it would not be in the j best interests of the community

for him to take any part in politics. Several other candidates are expected to make an effort to have the election board enjoined from putting their names on the ballot. o Adams County Men Enter CCC Camps Fourteen Adams county young men were examined and approved at Fort Wayne Friday for the C.C C. camps this summer.

ItMFS SISTER SHIP WILL BE READY IN FALL- — LZ 129 Being Rushed To Completion Bv Zeppelin Works FRIEDRICHSHAFEN. Apr. 14 (U.R?—U3 129. the bigger and better sister of the w Graf Zeppelin, rapidly is progressing in construction. At present the extremely important question of motors is In the last stage of discussion. If the constructors can make up their minds soon the newest dirigible may be ready this Fall for its maiden trip. By July, 1913, the mid-sect ion I of the dirigible, with eight principle and 24 auxiliary ribs and » total length of 121 meters, was finished. By September, 160 meters of framework were ready and since that time work has been pushed until at present only the stern skeleton, w'ith its complicated steering apparatus, remains to be set in position. Length of Ship VVJtliout the stern section, the i ship measures 189 meters. The completed length will be 248 meters. 13 meters longer than the Graf. Despite the only slightly greater length, however, the IJ! 129 will have almost double the gas capacity of the Graf. Its circumference will lie 41.20 meters compared with 30.62 for the Graf Zeppelin, making for a respective carrying capacity of 200.000 as against 105,000 cubic meters. Meantime the interior construction is rapidly progressing. The passenger cabins are -well along; piping is at present being laid for hot and cold water. As an innovation. the used water will not lx> discharged, but will lie conducted , to a special tank as ballast. i Other Innovations Other innovations to be installed in the LZ 129 include an electric lift to facilitate loading and un-, loading the cargo and huge: ' wheels affixed to the pilot's gon-1 dola and the lower fin to aid in I landing. These wheels can lie turned in any direction. The LZ 129 will be the first German airship on which smoking j is permissible. This has been made possible by the introduction as a lifting gaent of helium gas, hitherto confined to United States airships. The smoking room will be situated on the lower, or 'B' deck, equipped with double doors and a I veritable “sluice'' through which ■, smokers must pass entering or departing. Thus the fire hazard will be reduced to the absolute minimum. After the stern portion has been finished, the ''suit" of the LZ 129 , will be tailored. The "pants" already have been completed, a total of 35,000 square meters of cottonlinen material, compared with the 20.000 of the Graf. The Zeppelin works has specifically barred silk or wool covering after Incoming . convinced after long experience | that silk or artificial silk is not | sufficiently waterproof, and wool I lacking in elasticity. Motor Choice The important choice of motors will probably be made soon. The . selection of this vital equipment I has been delayed to give the con-1 structors an opportunity to await I tests of the latest Diesel types. The LZ 129 will be the first airship equipped for crude oil locomotion. New types of Diesel motors recently have been perfected by each of the three factories mentioned above. < Whichever type is selected, the new airship will be equipped with four motors against the five of the Graf. They will be much more pewerfnl. however, than any used
