1 Oh, well. It wouldn’t be an Indiana winter without frequent cold wave's and we must admit we have ■ had less of them this year than ( usual. Aepublicans in the state legislature have announced they will fight the proposed state NR A bill, not by offering any thing better but' just so they won't be overlooking! any chance that it might prove unpopular and then they could say “we told you so.” The state is nearing the closing of offering evidence in the Haupt-' mann case and the defense will, probably not require more than a i few days. There will be rebuttal, but it is likely the case which is | attracting world wide interest will go to the jury some time week. i Os course the Townsend plan to provide a SIIOOO pension monthlyj for every man and woman sixty. years old can't work. It just can t: be financed, but perhaps the way to convince people that they can’t get something for nothing, would | be to try something impossible. We must keep our feet on the ground individually and nationally. Two big floor shows jvill add toi the entertainment of those who at-j tend the local ball for the Presi- j dent, the night of the 3oth. its to j •be an event worth the money and• proceeds as you know go for a; great cause, that of aiding those stricken with infantile paralysis and seventy-five per cent of it re-, mains here. Buy a ticket or two. They know down at Washington, any way that Decatur lias a sugar factory and that it is being managed by men 'Of experience and of wisdom. Messrs. Busche and Calland have made friends among those in control there and will we are sure get for tile local plant and tile farmers who support it by raising beets, every tiling possible. We hope Babe Ruth declines that $75,000 offer to ride an elephant in a circus parade the coming season. That's a lot of money but the Babe can get a good salary in his own line, which will be much more permanent and somehow or other wouldn't be letting down all the millions of fanss, who have pointed to him with pride so many years. The 11135 Indiana legislature Iras a good start and If they keep up the record so far made and which seems they will make during the next few days, they will establish a record never made here and perhaps never equalled in any stale.

fora the sfityone days arq up >r« I also announced but we can scarcejly hope lhat they will prove that i efficient. : ---l No business will long live or well succeed that doesn't advertise in t the home newspaper. It has been I tried again and again but never 1 1 yet proven wise. We Invite you to . • use this paper. We have a clrcut lation that covers tills trading territory like a blanket, our rates > are low and there can be no good > reason why any one who wishes to I sell his merchandise, should not II )I use It.. i1 We have read with interest the 11 suggestions published Saturday by 1 "A citizen” and believe there is merit to the plan. It Is impossible to get up to the curb in front of a business house on almost any day and particularly ou Saturday. Cars are parked there for hours which Is not fair to those who have to jgo to the stores. By the plan sug- , gested, every one could lie taken, care of and trading would be made I easier. We will be glad to have other suggestions or a discussion j of this one. The people of the United States now know that Franklin D. Roosevelt was not engaged in idle campaign talk when he spoke of the forgotten man in 1932. He meant exactly what he said and when he I came to power he did not forget. ; His social security plan Is a great step forward toward making life secure for all American citizens. It embraces measures which had to come, under a social system as complex as our own has grown to 1 be. In fact they should have come 1 sooner. Several other nations are I more advanced than we are in this j respect. The President has given I congress assurance that the proI gram will not jeopardize the nat- | ional credit ami we have no reason Ito feel that it will. To provide 1 reasonable pensions for those who 1 ard no longer able to keep themi selves, to insure strong men against ' unemployment, and to care for mothers and children who need j the help of those more fortunate financially than themselves — that I is a program which springs from I the noblest teachings of the human | race. We can afford it and we will ; and life will be happier for millions. There is nothing fantastic I about the program of President | Roosevelt. It is practical and work- ' able. It is a step—long step—to- | ward that human brotherhood of ; which we hear in lodge halls and churches. Once more the American people are to be congratulated upon the wise and courageous leadership of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. — Fort Wayne JournalGazette.
