Dairy Day to be held here August bth, the climax of the big street -fair, and it goes without saying that this will be a. real occasion. The Cloverleaf Creameries never do things by halves and they plan to make this year s Dairy Day the best ever. Why all the sobbing about the two boys who kidnaped the sheriff of Dubois county, wrecked two stolen automobiles and displayed a dangerous familiarity with revolvers? They are the kind that make Dillingers and certainly ought* to | be punished. Harmon Waley, 25 years old, has started his sentence of forty-live yeajs in prison for hi* part in kidnaping the Weyerhaeuser boy.

Against Consolidation Decatur Democrat: A few short weeks ago a storm of discussion broke out over a. supposed proposal to enlarge our present ’.ownships and do away with the trustees. Then came an emphatic rebuttal that there was no such proposal alive, dormant or dead. Lately the papers have eased gently into the public confldeffce inch by inch in order to avoid wholesale heart attacks or apoplexy by the very confiding and docile public that they were right in the first place and the plan actually outlines how Adams county would be butchered into new, efficient and profitable (for a few of the chosen) tbwnships. Don't us taxpayers feel proud when we go to pay our ta,x and the treasurer asks us where we are from and one will say “he is from Thurman township, another is fromThompson township and another is from McNutt township and someone else admits he is from Hitler township ” and don’t anyone kid thehselves that expenses would reduce. Every newly created township would have to have a state equipped and state approved 10acre campus, mountainous buildings a.nd a dictator like old fuedal times to make the farmers dig up more tax. Here is a tip hot from a source that should know what he is talking about, yet could be mistaken. It is—soon as the farmers are busyin harvest there will be a special session of the state legislature called a: d before you can say “Jack Robinson” we will have a new law entitled. “Be it enacted by the state assembly, that the counties and townships be reorganized.” There is a hill before our national congress called the Wagner bill, already passed by the senate and will probably be by the house, thaJ sure will eateh folks napping. It gives union labor or A. F. of L., power to regulate its wages in factories or corporations. That sounds innocent enough on the surface. But how has A. F. of L. been doing in the past? They have been stirring up strikes continually for higher wages and picketing the place to prevent any one else from working. That doesn’t sound nice during this depression and al! through it they have hindered reco very.. Os course there are two sides to this but manufactured products are high enough now. Farmers can not buy any new machinery now on his farm income. Higher wa.ges would make higher prices

ou the finished product. Another provision that looks fishy is giving a guaranteed per cent of the gross income of a factory to A. F. of U if the factory breaks even on expenses or suffers a loss, labor assumes none of the expenses. A good place for such a bill is the stove for while the. country U struggling for recovery it is a. poor time to put industry in hot water. Chances are that many employers would rather close up than let radical union labor tell them what to pay. how to run their business and so on after the employer has speut years and iierhaps decades of planning and nursing his business. It looks decidedly unfair that union labor would take such a stand. If they want to baas factories why do they not start and ruu their own Here is the rub. They would rather spend their money and be free. They don't want any responsibility. They are like that Huey Long —spend their own money and tell how the other fellow is to spend his. Suppose that law goes into effect ajid the workers in small factories around here organize and tell the owner they want double wages? He cannot discharge them, the only recourse is pay or shut down.
