Another week of the Hauptman trial and then the country will go to something else.. January weather is so changeable that before our comment on it comes out in print a different brand has arrived. Huey Long's paper rattles on about share your wealth, but the loud mouth Senator, up-to-date, has not shared his wealth with anyone. With memories still fresh from the experience of last year’s sleet storm everyone hopes there will not be a repetition of the elements this year. Speaking of Second street parking problems, what do you think' of an hour and a half parking regu- ' lation* or designation of certain' spaces along the street for loading i and delivery purposes? Who can work it out? The fellow who grabs young women as they pass might receive a knock-out blow from a plain clothes officer dressed as a girl. It will please all if he is given a good sock between the eyes or made to swallow his upper teeth. Clyde Beatty escaped being a juicy steak for an enraged lion knocked him over and started to claw the trainer. IHis job is one that most people would not crave and probably is the reason why so many pay to see him work in the; arena. Louisiana is up in arms again, tliis time to call the legislature to impeach the Long stool-pigeon governor and rid the state of the dictator type of laws passed by the special session.. From utterances made there will be some blood shed. Some day Long and his crowd will be overthrown and their fall will mean their last. We believe there are enough true-spirited American citizens down there to do the job right. The council committees are discussing plans for a more servicable system and effective manner of billing and collecting light and power bills each mouths. It goes without saying that a municipal plant belongs to the people and the public, through its general interest, must cooperate in the plan or method determined upon, assuming of course that all angles have been viewed. A municipal plant is a great advantage in every community and we should all help to make it butter and thus continue to enjoy its benefits. The real cost of the depression is not the money which President Franklin D. Roosevelt is spending to keep the wolf from the doors of millions. The real cost lies in the shrinkage of the national income. It was some $80,000,000,000 before the depression began and it sank

to something like $40,000,000,000 oi less when the depression reached its lowest dip.. If the national in come can be raised to normal th* T United States can afford to liqui date the depression debts,.. And it may be well to remember that a 11 large part of the money which the national administration is accused it of spending has been not gifts but r - loans to finance self-liquidating projects.—Journal-Gazette. 2 PENSION POLICY: ® While proponents of the soldiers’ 5 bonus prepare to force a vote on 0 that question, the American Vet- ® eran Association calls attention to what is potentially an even greater danger — namely, "a repetition of : the pension rackets of the past." a process of gradually "liberalizing'’ the law led in the case of the Civil War to the granting of benefits to all veterans and all war "widows." This policy cost the t country more than $7,500,000,000. ’ and so burdened it with continuing commitments that it is still paying nearly $100,000,000 annually in pensions—seventy years after the last shot was fired in the Civil War. Practically the same thing happened in the case of the Spanish-Ant-1 erican War, with a total cost of , more than $800,000,000 and a current annual outlay of more than $110,000,000.. In the case of the - World War the process of "liberalization" has already made great strides toward the promised laud of a pension for every man mustered into the service, regardless of 1 whether or not he suffered the slightest disability. Already more 1 titan 1,000,000 “claims” have been ■ filed—though the total number of those killed and wounded in war service amounts to less than one ‘ fifth that figure. The American Veterans Association declares itself whole-heart-edly iu favor of pensions for “the truly war disabled and the dependents of the war dead." But it believes in drawing the line precisely at that point and in organizing to i resist the demoralizing exploitsI tion which has invariably followed earlier wars. On that question it is undertaking a poll of public opinion. Its platform corresponds precisely to the “statement of principles" made by President Roosevelt in his address before the American Legion in 1933. — New i York Times. *STARSIGNA By OCTAVINE ♦ ♦ For persons who believe that human destiny is guided by the planets tile daily horoscope is outlined by a i noted astrologer.
