Sinclair Lewis may be the next author to run for office. The next governor of Texas is not a Red, although his name is Allred. Let's strike into the fall stride next week and keep it going until after the first of the year. Austria's official hangman is ill anil we don't doubt that he is sick to liis feet. He's had a busy time lately. Senator Hiram Johnson is the master statesman and politician. He was nominated on four tickets In the California primary, and his election next November is assured. After traveling through the west, Wilson Beery, popular rural mail carrier-of this city, says there is no place as good as old Adams county and we believe him. If Upton Sinclair lives up to his campaign pledge to abolish poverty in the California primary and his tisement that will be for the Golden State. Would yon like to remodel or repair your house this fall? Why not take it up with local contractors and material supply houses and work out a plan, in cooperation with the federal housing act. Out of town peddlers don t help build a town and local (people don't owe them a thing. If an ordinance can be drafted which will prevent them from doing business here let's pass it and then enforce it. What's the system of defining “lefts" anti “rights?” After all don't the people decide things for themselves and vote as they -please, giving little attention to the fancy classifications that are pinned on their thoughts. Treasury Secretary Morgenthau has figured that the actual cost of the New Deal relief program is about a half billion dollars. That's not so bad and those who have been claiming that the country was headed for bankruptcy will have to pull in. Whatever the cost, people are not going to starve this winter, take it from the President. Labor Day belongs to labor and to the man who keeps the wheels of industry and commerce going. It will be observed next Monday. As has been the custom for many years the Daily Democrat will not be published, giving all the employes an opportunity to enjoy, what is commonly called the last day of the vacation season. “If there were any doubt of the substantial virtue of the Roosevelt program, it would be dispelled by the admissions of the apposition,” said Senator Joseph O'.Mahoney. of Wyoming, in an address in Chicago. "There is no important critic

of the New Deal who does not begin his attack with qualifying words intended as assurance that ho doe* not propose to undo what hue actually been accomplished.'' Mrs. Henry T. Rainey, widow of tho late speaker will not be a candidate to succeed her famous husband in Congress. With the years of experience gained while living in Washington and serving as her husband's secretary; she could fill the place probably bet. ter than most men, but as she states she would rather retire to her home in Illinois. She is a sensible and brave woman. Things seem to bo all aflutter In England with the announcement that Prince George is going to marry Princess Marina of Greece. The girls on the British Isle wonder why he had to go so far to pick a wife and those close to the throne vouch that It is a real love match. The Prince of Wales at the age of 40 is still single and maybe the English girls will be j lucky in his choice. A good many citizens in towns the Rize of Decatur. Bluffton and Portland, when comparing civic and public improvements, use Fort Wayne as an example. In the first •place it isn't a fair comparison. Fort Wayne lias 20 to 25 times the population and several times the assessed wealth of these towns. In 193.7, Fort Wayne raised $43,692.93 in taxes for the public parks. The entire appropriation for J)urks in Decatur next year is only $1,230. That’s about the best reason why smaller cities can’t spend as much. Are we to have a sugar beet week this year? Last year’s event was a great success and of course every merchant and citizen would be gald to cooperate in a program boosting the use and sale of Decatur made sugar. As affairs of this kind go, each year should bring a more interesting program and if we are lo observe the week in Decatur this fall, it s time plans are started. Why not combine the week's festivities with an observance of the building of the houses on the homestead site? Another evidence of its stability is the announcement of the First State Bank of this city that it has j qualified tor membership in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corpor-! ation, which automatically insures J all deposits in the bank up to i $5,000. In the local case (practically : every deposit will be protected by the federal insurance. The last session of congress extended the limit on insured deposits from $2,500 to $5,000 and those who have money to deposit can avail i themselves of the facilities and accommodations of the bank with absolute safety. The officers and directors of the First State Bank are to be congrateulated on their FDIC membership, which also re-, fleets a splendid financial condition I for the institution. o # TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File ► ■ ♦ Aug. 31 —Germans capture 31,000 Russians in east Prussia.
