Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies. Heed the policeman’s whistle. Huey Long has his brass. He wants to investigate the office of Postmaster-general Farley. New York City has a property valuation of $16,649,771,199, which is -a pile of money. Indiana's entire assessable valuation is only four billion, or less than one fourth of the total of New York’s. It would be foolish to repeal the gross income tax and not pass an income, sales or similar tax measure to make up the difference. The state property tax levy lias been cut to 15 cents on the hundred dollars and everybody knows the cost of government cannot be paid with this. Probably no tax method will ever please everyone. It may not be a serious infraction of the law to run a red light at night, but maybe the other fellow is figuring on doing the same thing. Result, a crash and some .one is hurt. Police are keeping a look-out for violators and hope to have the cooperation of the public in complying with the regulations. It’s easy to do, if you want to. Cities and counties now receive approximately two million dollars | from the division of the auto license fees. To divert part of this money for other purposes would seriously handicap the local taxing unit this year, the receipt of the funds being figured in current budgets. If changes are to be made, they should not become' (effective until next year. President Roosevelt has completed iialf of his term, although he has not served two years. He is the first President to serve under the new constitutional amendment, fixing tlie date of inauguration January 20, instead of March 4 Although lie will have a full term, It will lack six weeks of being four years. The half-way mark was reached at noon on February 12. The Navy may have reason tor building dirigibles, but out here in the flat country, we don't see where the big iighter-than-air ships are much good- Every venture, except the Graff Zeppelin has proved unsafe and the near destruction of the Macon off the coast of California. discounts the claim that the dirigibles cannot defy the elements. They have a majestic look, are great things to float through the air, but would be easy marks lor the enemy in time of war. . i Tim controversial sheriff's "feed bill" is believed to have been settled to the satisfaction of all concerned. A new bill introduced by Senator Weiss, sets up the same fees as in the first bill, but breaks the fees up into 13>® cents per meal in Marion and Lake counties and 20 cents in the other counties. It provides that the state board of accounts shall, once each year, fix

I the definite amount within the i limits set in the bill- The bill passed to engrossment after several attempts to amend had been de--1 tested. T j One contribution the Flemington ■t jury has already made: not in the field of law but medicine. It is of Interest that a group of eight men , l and four women can look back to t nearly six weeks of a bad Winter without any ailment of conse- , quence. One woman juror has bad p a slight cold. Offhand this is n 11 . much better showing than for the 'j general public, in Hunterdon Coun--5 ty, N. J.., or in more thickly popuD luted places. Members of the J Hauptmann jury had the advantage of not traveling on public conveyances, or exposing themselves to inclement weather- On the other hand, air and temperature conditions in the Flemington eouit room by all reports could have £ held their own against a rush-hour lin our own subway. Doctors —and their patients—can now debate the question of stuffy rooms versus • wet feet in relation to colds. — New York Times. 0 w cMMEr ** CMAftLgY offAMT i j .
