It’s not surprising that Haupt-' maim denied any part of the Lindbergh kidnaping. Now the legislature is going to hand it back to city and town councils to regulate the liquor traffic. Here’s the record —73 degrees be-i low zero in Irokuois Falls. Out. I Figure that out in shovel’s full of coal and you’ll get warm under the ' dollar. Former King Alfonso is attending the marriages of his daughters and sous and at the same time planning a separation from his own i wife. He probably omits fatherly advice. Jimmy Walker and his wife are getting their pictures in the paper again with the announcement that they intend coming back to Newi York. The once former sporty may-1 or of the country's largest city will not find things as he left them. - There's a reason for cold waves.' A man walked out on his wife, and told her "it would be a mighty' cold day in January before he tookj her back.” Came the day. They appeared in court Thursday when I the thermometer registered zero and made up. Old January will soon be history, in point of business, the barometer indicates that it was an improvement over a year ago. Individuals j are talking better times, feel happier, earning and spending money and with the opening of spring. I Hew activity should be noted. Lend that shoulder in pushing forward. Ship disasters have been frequent recently, the latest being the sinking of the Mohawk off the New Jersey coast. Rammed by a freighter. the pleasure liner soon sank! and casualities are listed at about 40. In the air, on the highways or out ou the ocean, it seems that tragedies cannot be prevented, regardless of the safeguards taken. The nation has confidence in President Roosevelt s ability to disperse the $4,800,000,000 relief fund and everyone knows that he will render a splendid accounting of IL Why argue about who shall do the job, as long as sincerity of purpose' prompts those charged with the responsibility? The point is, Mr. Roosevelt wants to put men to work. Koehler, the wood expert in the Hauptman trial, pinned some very damaging evidence on the alleged kidnaper and earned for himself the title of saw dust tester. The government, expert had an uncanny way of making his point and if the jury was convinced, his testimony might go far in getting a conviction. (He might have lieen the inventor of the cross-word puzzle. Mrs. Charles Lose, well known woman of this city will act as chair, man of the bridge party- to be given in connection with the birthday

I ball for the President. It is the ! purpose of her committee to ar- ! range entertainment for those who do not dance and to help make the , ■ evening enjoyable for all. Tickets purchased for the social gathering will aid crippled children and that ’ is one cause all of us can support. Fort Wayne will always feel that the theater business Is not the same without Clyde Quimby, veteran operator and a pioneer in the ! development of the modern moving I picture theater. Mr. Quimby, who was only 54. died following a short j streptococcic infection. He was a i civic leader, a prime mover in the ! community and gave to his city I several of its leading playhouses. His memory will live as the "show goes on." Phil L. Macklin will make an efficient and accomodating postmaster. Congressman Farley has decided on his selection and tena- : tive plans call for Mr. Macklin to I assume the Decatur office about | February 6, succeeding L. A. Gra- ; ham. postmaster for the last eight I years. Mr. Macklin has had much mercantile and office experience, is gracious in manner, competent and well qualified for the importI ant post. Long a party worker and an ardent Democrat, also has earn- ; cd his feathers in political battles. I The many friends of the popular | designated-appointee are happy that Mr. Farley selected him for | the office. King Zog of Albania is looking ; for a wife and is said to be not at all averse to an American girl. Among other qualifications she must have an income of 11,000,#00 ; a year. If the income is all right, it is presumed that there will be no difficulty about the other requirements. The young woman will automatically develop charm, wit. edu-1 cation, a queenly bearing and the domestic virtues. A million dollars i a year is not to be picked up in I the streets. Still, it should not be ' impossible. For the year 1933 the ' Internal Revenue had 46 incomes ! of a million dollars and over, and ' it is not uulikely that a marriage-1; I able young woman might be found . among them. The agent for King ! Zog, however, seems to have been I unlucky, and the monarch is look- ; ' ing elsewhere. Have they tried . Hollywood? Young women earning ' approximately a million dollars a year are not unknown there, if you can believe the publicity re- ( leases. Or if a Hollywood star does ' not rate quite that high, she would automatically become worth a mill- . ion dollars a year as a prospective I queen. Mere princes command good prices as Hollywood husbands.— New York Times. o * STAR SIGNALS 1 ByOCTA V I N E ♦ ♦ For persons who believe that human destiny is guided bv the planets the daily horoscope is outlined bv a noted astrologer.

Many a chap has a rusty mind and a shiney seat. Many a gal hugs delusions who never gits embraced. Many a gal has a light head who ain't any too bright. Stayin' on th’ level is a dein good way t* climb. Ain’t it funny how some folks who live together kin drift apart? Yep. folks have t’ live harmoniously t' keep in tune with life.

This survey also looks to setting up perm- ' anent state organizations. The Foundation has also financed with Birthday Ball funds the work Dr. Leroy W- Hubbard of the Foundation medical staff, in traveling throughout the country, talking on infantile paralysis as a national p: c 'em and advising local hospitals on their problems in connection with the disease.

EFFECTIVE control of corn acre- | age in 1935 is held to be essential | became of the decline in corn requirements for livestock feeding since the 1924-29 period, and particularly since a year ago. As indicated in the above chart, the total number of hogs slaughtered in 193435 probably will not exceed 50 million head, as compared with an average of 70 million head in recent years. Because hogs eat approximately one-half of the annual corn crop In the United States, hog adjustment this past year alone has lowered corn requirements between 325 and 350 million bushels under the requirement level of former seasons. The reduction of 10 to 15 per cent effectuated in cattle numbers by the drought liquidation under the Government drought purchase program has further reduced corn requirements for livestock feeding. A mod-

The remaining 70 cents of each dollar will go toward; ‘aiding infantile paralysis victims in the community which has raised the money. This phase of the work was decided ou because infantile paralysis one of the most expensive as well as one of the most difficult of all diseases to treat. » In serious cases it requires the almost undivided attention of one nurses. Even mild cases require braces, exercise, and special treatments for a long time. Such necessary treatment Is beyond the means of the large majority of the afflicted. So by far the largest part of the proceeds of the benefit parties this year will go to the direct aid of local victims, while national re- > search will also benefit in lesser ’ degree. Toll is Decreasing There is reason to believe that the number of infantile paralysis : cases in the country is gradually
