In view of all the court decisions, it might be asked if the Constitution is constitutional. Boy Scouts, how about it? In finding away to do your good turn daily, why not include an hour or two of police patrol duty at the parking lots. Mussolini is figuring on making a trip to Africa. After looking over the grounds he may come to the realization that the whole country isn't worth fighting for. Pictures of D. C. Stephenson do not show him any the worse for 10 year's confinement behind the prison walls. He appears to still have a double chin and life in the pen evidently has not been so bad. President Roosevelt is in excellent health, has more vigor than a

dozen of the best football p'ayers and a mind as keen and alert as the best. Rumors and stories to the contrary are untrue aud unAmerican. Wheat is averaging more than 30 bushels to the acre and is bringing nearly 70 cents per bushel. Farmers are working hard in the harvest and the whole countryside is abuzz. Their labor is bringing new wealth from tliej ground and we hope their reward will be great. Between now and the time when a new contract is let the council will adopt specifications and regulations for the gathering aud disposal of garbage. The job is ajj important one and the idea shou'd be to obtain the kind of service the community demands. That viewpoint should be taken by the contractor and the public should be

I willing to pay for the service. Friends in this city and county are pleased to learn of the promotion given Clyde Hendricks, farmer Monroe school teacher, in the Fort Wayne high school system. Mr. Hendricks has been named principal of the Adams school, one of the large institutions of learning in Fort Wayne.. He is excellently qualified for the post hy education and training and will continue to be of the able instructors in the city he has adopted as his home. Here's a new one. H's adoption i

might, solve all parking problems and eliminate the double parking nuisance. Oklahoma City has installed parking meters at intervals of 20 feet along certain streets. To use the space the au o owner must drop a nickel or a dime in the slot, avowing the motorist to park for the time specified on the meter. A red indicator drops back Into position when the time expires. That, may be one way for cities to raise revenue and at the same time eonttol parking space in the shopping district, unless someone is willing to pay the stlp end for each hour.

More free parking lots axe 'to be provided iu Decatur. Chris Boknecht, owner of a lot back of the buildings on the west side of Second street, has offered the place ‘ for free parking. The Decatur t School Board is willing to turn over Its lot, corner of First and Jackson streets, for parking purposes. The city will be glad to 1 accept these offers and put the grounds iu shape. They will ac- > commodate a number of cars and i relieve traffic congestion in the ' shopping district.'The school board i lot is less than two blocks distance i from the retail district. It would 1 bb a tine move if the Boy Scout organization volunteered 'to help police the parking lots on Saturday night. Making visitors feel at home in your town is a community obligation and by all working together, results axe accomplished. The decision of the Boston Court of Appeals that the AAA is unconstitutional will be appealed immediately to the United States Supreme Court. Until the verdict is rendered by that high tribunal, there will not be any change in the present system of charging the processing. If the supreme court overrules the decision of the Boston court, the law will stand. The processing tax is on certain farm crops and hogs. It becomes a part of the market price and is paid by the consumer. The argument has always been and facts largely substantiated the claims of government experts, that farm prices would be raised through the processing tax. The effort has been to place farm crops on a parity with other commodities. I't accomplished much good last year and probably was the reason for the spurt in prices. Farmers have received about $900,000,000 from the processing levies. An employment survey covering the members of last month's graduating class at Purdue University reveals a gratifying upturn in the number absorbed in the business and industrial field. The inquiry showed that almost half the seniors had obtained steady employment, largely in professions for which they had been trained, before they completed the university course. Others reported they either had temporary jobs or definite prospects. The university plans another check of the 1935 class ■he last of this month which, it is believed, will show most graduates gainfully employed. The tragedy

of the depression years has been presented in the large number of university alumni, prepared for definite careers and eagerly awaiting the opportunity to apply their training, denied the opportunity to work. The enthusiasm with which they sought to plunge into chosen activities gradually waned in many instances and bitter disillusionment followed.— Indianapolis Star.
