If it takes Friday the 13th to bring showers let’s have more of the so-called hoodoo days. Brown stone fronts might be applied to the homes in Decatur in view of the burned out lawns. Lupe Valez said a mouthful in giving her reasons for a divorce, ' So why not Lupe”? We complain altout the weather, bat yet a lot of folks spend gobs oF-money trying to find this kind in the winter. We cry because we haven’t leadership and then when we get in we immediately start knocking down the ears of those in front so someone else can have a job. '■Drive carefully so you are not included in the list of victims over the week-end. Don't try to pass cars going up hill and consider theMitlier fellow may be doing tiff- reckless driving. Jim Farley told Indiana what tipi administration thinks of Senator Robinson, and why, and accepted in clear Terms the challenge to'battle, the campaign out on the New Deal line. No fair—street or county—seems to be in sight here this year but wP could easily have a fall festival, corn show and holiday that would be appreciated by the people of Hie comftiunity. General Hugh Johnson may be any thing you want to call him except a coward. Hi- has the courage of a Soldier and he believes he is right. He is telling his story to the nation and those who are wise will listen. The attorneys suggest four or five law improvements which they believe may help control crime in Indiana but the law violators already have away to beat it prob ably. What we need is a speeding up. of court proceedure to permit quick and sufficient punishment, rather than statutes which give mure opportunity for delays. The best thing about present conditions is that times look better to* the farmer and when he gets bagk on his feet the depression will be over. Prices are better than for several years and there is a genuine effort to make the New Deal include a profit for the agriculturists. Now we are to be bothered with the Jackson boys again.

I the way whatever became of former Governor Ed Jackson” His brother, James, is to head the Ku Klux Klan organization In this state and will attempt to revive the campaign of hate and dissension, prevalent a few years ago. Hoosierdom should duck in shame. Several merchants are boosting for a trade day similar to the one held Thursday to be held each month and that's of course a wise thing to do. The more effort and energy we put into business, the more we may expect in return. Tho more honest and fair competition, the better for the public. This is a splendid time to step on it. Hitler in defending his ruthless drive against his enemies, declared his action was a warning to others. Bloody rule of this kind will not survive. Even in Germany the people will not stand for their comrades and friends to be taken out and shot and although conditions may seem to quiet down over there, trouble will break out again and Hitler may not be in the command position. We should be thinking about •next winter and the unemployment problem. The federal government will more than likely make funds available and the thing to do is to map out a program of constructive and needed work. Under the CWA some excellent work was done. The trouble is we wait until the last minute and then in order to give employment think up haphazard stuff and in the long run don't benefit from the efforts. Two thousand enthusiastic Democrats cheered National Chairman Farley as he addressed them last night at the Claypool hotel banquet and there is no doubt that the workers are ready for the word "go'' in opening the campaign about September Ist. They are proud of their record and will not be headed off by those who would direct attention to trivial matters, hoping that the real issues may be lost sight of. Mr. Farley is forceful and a live-wire leader and with the great organization already established iu Indiana, the leaders expect to march steadily on to a victory and the election of “Shay" Minton. This community lost one of its stalwart and able citizens in the death of Leander Dunbar, for S 3 years a resident of French and Hartford townships. Mr. Dunbar was one of those unselfish pioneers, who by honest effort, energy and enthusiasm helped build his community. Reared in an atmosphere of honesty and with training to be ts service he was the type citizen the community respects and admides. Through his enthusiasm he started the furniture manufacturing business in Linn Grove and Berne, living to see his efforts pay great dividends in employment and healthy business conditions for those connected with the concern. As a young man he served his county as commissioner and stood for those things which benefit the public. He will always be remembered as a splendid citizen. 0 .

this bill primarily is to stimulate private enterprise with the federal government acting as an insurer for mortgage loans up to 80 per cent in value for new construction.
