The world today heard President f Roosevelt deliver his message to I congress. Indiana is proud of its two U. S. • senators. Van Nuys and Minton.’ ’ the latter taking his oath of office* with the convening of congress. Bruno can keep his mouth situ* I and attorneys are wondering if; j they can convict the alleged kid- 1 naper and killer of the Lindbergh ' baby. The special election for the purpose of electing a successor to Congressman Fredrick Landis will' | be held in the second district on ' January 29. That leaves less than j three weeks for the campaign so; | it ought to warm up at once. Mayor Bangs of Huntington took . office with a bang, defied the util-: , Ity company that serves his town . with light and power and then j ducked, so officials could not serve i him with a warrant. He probably anticipates a busy term. Departmental heads of the city administration while organizing their departments are at the same time performing the work expected of them. Everyone is anxious to serve the public and will carry on in away helpful to all. The average newspaper office does not expect a dearth of news these days with the opening of Congress, the Hauptmann trial and 1 the convening of the state legis-1 lature, not Buying anything about; the usual run of tragedies and other happenings. Neighboring papers wish the; new management of the Journal-' Gazette all the success In the World. Headed by Will Kunkel of j Bluffton and Fort Wayne, the! paper, again restored to the morning field, will continue to render fine service to the community and state. It will not cost the city a great deal of money to enroll three more J members in the Volunteer fire de-1 partment organization. Fire Chief! Robenold believes the need exists for a larger membership and points out that the service of additional men fs needed in fighting tires. Adequate man power is as necessary at flies as sufficient horsepower. Joseph Byrns of Tennessee has been elected speaker of the nat-j ionai house of representatives. He is a veteran in the halls of congress and one of the most able men in Washington. His election wps almost a foregone conclusion, although It is the first time in a century that a Tennesseean lias been selected for this important past. ~' A meeting of Indiana mayors will be held in Indianapolis next week under the auspices of the i Muiticipal League and matters per- ■ tainfng to the governing of cities will be discussed.

I Under orders from Al Feeney state police have been directed to ! rid the state of slot machines. The ■ drive began today and will be carj ried on in rural communities. It's funny that slot machines can survive. The devices were not made “to beat" and the average person knows that money put in them will never come out. Still there are weaklings that pump hard earned cash into them. The county commissioners have organized, Frank Martin, senior' member of the board being elected chairman. The commissioners are planning their program for the year, road maintenance and imj provements, old age pensions and j operation of the several county ini stitutions all being considered. Their jobs are important and each ! man gives aI A of service. The j board has three able men. namely ' , Mr. Martin, Phil Sauer and Moses . Augsburger. r ; i Some people favor the present gross income tax, others want It | changed and still others favor re-1 pealing it and passing a state sales i tax. If every state in the Union' would puss a sales tax. the rate I being the same everywhere, It I would simplify matters a lot and , j in the long run raise more money, ’ ' The day of the old real estate tax I seems to have paused and everyone is agreed I hat some form of sales or income tax is necessary, i In New York they have a tax on a tax. o
