The present campaign has been void of personal attacks and it is j right that it should be. The campaign has arrived at j that stage when party workers and ■ candidates are concerned about| getting out the vote. Enthusiasm for the work, an eagerness to serve and to promote community welfare through a spirit of cooperation is what the Democratic city candidates wish to carry on the next four yearsIf you have spare time ami would like to get paid for it. join the Daily Democrat's Christmas club. You'll get paid on the subscriptions turned in and have a chance to win one of the large cash awardsSeveral well known people have joined the Daily Democrat's Christmas club' fund It's a good plan to get paid for your spare time and you also have the opportunity to win out of the cash awards, up to SSOO. If you do not win one of the prizes, a commission is paid on the ■ subscriptions turned in. Get your costume and mask ready for the big Callithumpian parade Wednesday night. It will be a lot of fun. There will be a half dozen bands to entertain you and you'll enjoy seeing the crowd of merrymakers. The whole community is invited and the committee will be disappointed if you don't join the crowd. Halloween should not be a time to commit depredations or destroy projrerty. Children will be children, but that doesn't give them the excuse to pillage property, puncture auto tires or ruin windows by rubbing tallow on them. Several complaints have been made to local police and arrests will be made if the destruction continues. The American Bankers’ Association lias pledged its cooperation to President Roosevelt. President Hec ht of the the association said, “the banker will play his part on the all-American team, pledging the boat efforts of heart and mind." The old country is coming through, people are uniting in the drive to restore normal conditions and the AmeridWl spirit will eventually win. We don't know what the sport writers and dopesters will say about the game, but we look at the Yellow Jacket's victory over Bluffton as a contest where the local boys fought tor the love of Martin Worthman and to keep faith with him. They wanted to win that game to demonstrate they could carry

on and was possessed of that spirit of which their beloved superintendent was justly proud. Well done, Yellow Jackets. r Sherman Minton. Democratic candidate for United States senatt or is one of the state's ablest orators. He makes a great speech, is : not afraid to say what he thinks ■ and is willing to help President Roosevelt carry through his program. If you want to hear one of [ the high lights of the campaign, be I at the court house Monday after, i noon. i - Jimmy Adams, Indiana highway i director, has assured the local committee that he will be here for the official opening of state road 527 on November 9. The program is being arranged and appropriate recognition of this worthy improvewill be taken when the communities of Decatur and Willshire meet at the state line to cut the ribbon, formally opening the road and linking the two states. To prove that Democratic administrations have been working with the idea in mind of reducing the civil city's tax levy to a nominal amount or eliminating it entirely, one needs to look only at the budgets for the past five years, in 1931 the budget totaled I $48,000. The levy for next year will produce a little more than $17,000. a 60 per cent reduction in five years In the meantime streets. : lights, fire and police protection I have been maintained and Decatur has progressed more than any town of its size in the state. Ogden Mills, millionaire secretary of the treast ry under President Hoover, charges that the U. S. is headed for ruin under the present administration. It sounds silly. Mills probably has all his rich farm lands and town houses’ and his vaults filled with V. S. bonds and other valuable securities If he spoke the truth he Would have tc admit that he was worth more today than his inventory showed back in 1933. He has not suffered a penny's worth and why should he growl because the needy and unemployed are fed. Born in the hills of southern Indiana. Sherman Minton, grew iana. Sherman Minton, who grew th prominence because of his burning desire to educate and equip himself with requisites necessary to become a leader in public life. As a public speaker he is known as ap oratorical firebrand. He is a veteran of the world war, was commissioned and has an enviable record, both in the service of his country and as public counselor in this state. He is the type man Indiana would be proud to have in the senate. The beet sugar growers have been given the assurance that their cause of having beet acreage increased in lhe Decatur area will be given every consideration and in all probability an upward adjustment will be made. An attitude of cooperation was shown at the Bowling Green meeting and officers of the Central Beet Growers association and o f the local sugar factory are confident that a satisfactory adjustment will be reached. It is one crop that is not grown to excess in this country and in view of the capacity of the local mill a quota large enough to warrant the operation of the mill should be alloted here.

This is a call to the liberal progressive forces of Indiana, no matter what the previous political affiliation, to rally to the standard of the greatest leader and liberal forces America ever produced.
