Tl»e fellow who fears that freedom of speech will be a thing of the past generally says all he has to say and no one stops him. it must be easy to run the country after receiving solutions to all the important problems from the political orator and letter writer. “ * A foursome of golfers were held up on the French Lick course and robbed of $270. The moral of the story, is not to carry more than caddy change in your pocket. Much has been said already about Indiana adopting laws conforming with NRA regulations. Fourteen states have passed such legislation and no one seems to have been hurt. Relieved of the treasury secretaryship Ogden Mills is enjoying himself at the Saratoga track, betting on his string of horses, sailing up the Hudson and going to parties. The funny part of it he still clings to the idea that the way to enjoy life is to become president. If Decaturs total tax rate is $2.75 or under, it will be one of the lowest and most reasonable in the state. Based on the current low property valuations the tax hill would be one of the smallest ]?aid in the past 15 years. Local officials are making a sincere effort to eliminate appropriations not necessary and to keep the levies down. Brooklyn was treated to a new kind of holdup the other day. Ban-

dits held up an armored truck took $427.tw0 and escaped In motor boats. The whole thing was timed to a split second and daring in its execution. Dillinger Is dead so some other muster mind will have to be charged with the stick-up and ; police officials are of the opinion that someone tpore canny than any outlaw ever dealt with engineered the job. Idel's get started on that house ' and building repair program. A local organization should be formed and a city wide canvas made to I ' ascertain how many property owners would repair and remodel their houses if finances could be arranged. Tradesmen here could do the work and also provide employment for others. It is the intention of the government to relieve much of the unemployment through the house repair 'program by extending to communities the advantages of the National Housing Act. Employment is on the increase at the General Electric plant and production of the new motor continues to climb daily. One is impressed with the enthusiasm displayed by those' engaged in the manufacture of the small motor units and the happiness reflected by them through steady employment. In another six weeks the sugar factory will be operating and several hundred meu will be given jobs during the processsing campaign. Generally speaking conditions are good here and there is no reason for you to feel discouraged. BE SLOW TO WRATH: The plight of that HidianatpoMs young man held on a murder charge as a result of a street fight should be pondered by those inclined to use their fists on slight provocation. He and the dead man seem to have had an argument over a larking incident. The details are not important. It was one of the usual rows that start without premeditation on the part of any one and wind up in a fight. The result in such cases, when there is any result, usually is that both land in I police court, charged with disorderly conduct. In this case one of the combatants was knocked down and apparently struck his head on the curb. He did not seem to be seriously injured at the time, hut was taken to the hospital, where he died from a I fracture of the skull. Such incidents are not uncommon. It is a surprisingly easy thing to fracture the skull in a fall to the curb or | pavement. Nobody who strikes an- i other can be sure of what will Tiaip pen. Men are even killed in the prize ring, where they are supposed to be prepared to stand any degree of punishment. The urge to punch some one’s nose may be elemental, but is entirely out of place in modern society. Nothing is determined by physical encounter, even when one is apparent victor. Those who are disposed to settle a score on the spot would do well to count ten, and then do nothing. It is very easy to get into trouble that may mean a lifetime of regrets. The hot-headed, of course, can not be expected to listen to reason. But those who pride themselves that they have some judgment should be impressed with the wisdom of using it to keep them out of difficulties.- Indianapolis Star.

Walmsley stole 30,090 votes in the last election. We struck off 30,000 of their names and they said all but 1.000 should have been off. Yet they voted every one of them last I January."

SMITH, DAVIS HEAD LIBERTY LEAGUE GROUP (CONTINUED FROM I’AhE ONE) Smith bombarded salty sarcasm in the pages of the "New Outlook.'; His term tor President Roosevelt's managed currency was "baloney dollar.” Senator Elmer Thoms, D., Okla.. | leader of the inflation bloc, characterized the league as "a strictly . anti-Roosevelt organization of ’ Democratic and Republican diehards whose chief aim will be to undermine the new deal." There were indications, how- < ever, that the new deal and the ■ Liberty League would be moder- ■ ately friendly at the outset.

Shouse is to be its president. His announcement invited White' House endorsement in a pledge that the league would become a I real factor in recovery and that: ' “It will co-operate with the President and congress in securing such legislation as will accomplish constructive results." o Mrs. Jennie Fuhrman of Marion, Ohi , ie visiting friends in this city
CHINCH BUGS ■I REPORT GIVEN -- Purdue Expert Lists PreI cautions To Take Against Insects , J. J. Davis, entomologist from ■ Purdue University, predicts that If [’heavy ruins are followed by hot weather, producing a high humid-' I ity in the next three weeks, the | chinch bugs will he destroyed in i great numbers. Driving rains will produce the same results. . This weather. Davis says, stimulates the white mbld fungus which I attacks chinch bugs and is sometimes called chinch bug cholera. Without these weather conditions it is probable that a large number of these bugs will go into hibernation with the likelihood of a severe outbreak in 1935. , At the ipresent time, adult chinch bugs are abundant in corn fields, at least in the northern half of Indiana. They are laying eggs and the first young hatched some days ' ago. Eggs were laid during most iof July and the first adults of the i second generation will appear the ' latter part of August. The elimination of wheat, rye and barley in the infested area will cause a reduction in abundance of 1 chinch bugs in 1935 to a small ex--1 tent. If the above small grains are I eliminated and oats planted, the ; bugs will go to the oats in the 1 spring and from there migrate to corn. i This fall the most important precaution for 1935 will be to avoid barley and spring wheat and to j plant winter wheat and rye only ‘ on strong ground with fertilizer if necessary, good seed and a good I seed bed for the wheat. Small grain fields should be located as : tar away from 1935 corn fields as I I possible. Wide strips of soy beans i between small grain field and corn i fields should be planted. Sprays and dusts will destroy
