He considers that I one of his rights. The government I can not throw him into prison or a concentration camp for express-! ing himself freely and openly. A i constitutional provision protects him in the exercise of that right. Consider the situation in Germany. if a German citizen doubts 1 the wisdom of propriety of the I Nazi theory, he is hustled off to a; concentration camp to ponder over | the iniquity of having political i ideas differing from those of hist superiors. Early in the Nazi ! regime thousands of independent Germans were sent to prison for their opposition to Hitler: today more than 2,B<W political prisoners are still in the concentration camps. Political objectors to the Nazi movement and others who are suspected of being dangerous to the Hitler theory will be put to work on the governmentreclamation project in Hanover, where they will drain moor and marsh lands near the Dutch frontier. The plight of the political pii oners of Getynany demonstrate, what h i pens when a people let a die ! tator abofish the right of free | speech. They become his serfsj and are compelled to expiat'- their I opposition by working like felons ; in swani|» and marshes. An American learus to appreciate his constitutional. rights when he sees what is happening to people_.il! European countries where dictators and bureaucrats oppre ;s the citizen.— Richmond Palladium. Plans are going forward for a citywide observance of youth week. April 27 to May 5. Programs a e being pn pared for the several events and the interest of boys and girls will be focused on the different activities arranged. It's a worthy movement, national ’in • cope and everyone should lend a helping hand. The Adams County Democratic I Woman's club will give the candidates an opportunity to present themselves at the meeting this evening at the court house. Joe McNamara. orator and assistant to Attorney-General Philip Lutz will be the principal speaker and the URIC ACID POISONING More Than 90% of All Cases of Rheumstitm Are Caused or Aggravated by Excess Uric Acid Killing the pain of neuritis, sciatica and rheumatism with dope doe.n’t end your agony — you've got to gi t the excess uric acid out ct your joints and muscles.

Clean-up week In Decatur will open May 1 and the city street de partment will cooperate with property owners in cleaning the alleys and streets. Citizens are asked to gather up the tin cans, place them in containers and the city force will haul them away. Let's do a good job. Indiana fat mers have been extended loans of more than one million dollars on their crlh corn. The report forth- state shows that two and a quarter million bnshels have been s-aled and the farmer has drawn his money and wiM have w hatever advantage may come later in increased prices. Decatur can step ahead in the next few years. Our industries are remodeling and installing new machinery which will increase plant efficiency and give more employment and the picture for the future is good. Let's keep working aud go forward. — It is claimed that bandit Dilling I er attended a family reunion at his I old home the other day. Nothing . like getting back among the boys 1 and girls and telling them what a ( great guy you are. When another candidate tries tn I tell you what his opponent stands ■ for and what he'll do if elected, you ' have a right to think that it's I bunk. Generally the candidate can > speak for himself. Life holds new interest for ! thousands of fans with the opening j of the baseball season. It's a great :port to follow ana young and old like to follow the dope. Plans for new lines of business and improvements with others is nice sign that there is life in the old town.

The Journeyman Barbers Union of Delator urged on to unjust tactics hy a member who lives just across the street from his fellow man and who has tried every thing imaginable to put this barber out oj business except to ask him to stand on his head which he readily can and will do if asked to do so. He exI>ects to try to show them and the public in general that he is trying .0 be a good fellow. One member, a young man who should at least have manhood sufficient to refrain from cussing an old man stooped to such low depths as to call this man in question a (g— d—) chisler and when asked what he meant reilied. “why cutting hair for 15c." but who was promptly informed that he too had been guilty of cutting for the measley little 15c and f nthermore had pulled their Blue Eagle out of the window and cut prices to every one to 25c. We wish to know just who is the chisler? We simply accepted their price and still maintain it. This man in ques-

They accepted the fee of $lO. hut upon receiv- ( ing complaints from the barber I across the street that oar physical I condition was not gilt edged the I . s board asked that we submit to anj other medical examination. We . had just taken this examination six weeks before and that too by an authorized doctor —Dr. A. M. Vizard —which at that tftne was accepted by the- board and a permit was issued at once. Complaint after complaint were sent in to In dianapolis but proved not to be : true, hence the board was invited jto call at our place and see for I themselves, which they did, and pronounced every thing o. k. Then fourteen barbers of Decatur signed ! a statement that I had never been ■a barber prior to July of 1933, 1 , which if proven true would have automatically stopped me from do- - ing barber work in this supposed - ' freg Indiana. This we countered : with a statement signed by 54 bonafide customers who stated that they had had barber work done or 1 I had known us to have been a barI ber for at least from one to forty > j years. This was sent to the board ■ ' who then changed their previous charges and requested that we return the siu which they had returnI ’ cd to us and said a barbers permit would be granted.

' We objected to this and informed the reporter that this was an unjust case and ask*# him to refrain from printing same at least just at present. The reporter very politely informed us that this was ‘news" . and we admit it must be for he gave us a prominent space on the front page instead of placing the item in the court proceedings as usual. We had decided not to take i the pai>er if the reporter allowed it . to appear and so informed him. also asking him to cancel onr subscriie tion. But since he gave us such a prominent place and realizing the beautiful ad we surely will receive from our many friends we have decided to continue a reader of the Democrat which we have been every since it was published.
