Few people will make much complaint about this so long as the relief was really needed and was methodically administered. Earl Jacobs. Michigan man wanted in Fort Wayne for murder, should know better than to try to hide in Decatur where bandits are not harbored and where every citizen would assist in apprehending the man who committed such a vicious crime as that with which he is charged. Wiley Post was by no means an ordinary flier or man. He worked his way up from scratch, without money or influence until he became an international hero, with two world flight records and many accomplishments that required skill and courage. The nation has really lost two of her greatest citizens and mourning is universal today. Adams county ha* received $175,247 from the state this year, to be used in local governmental expenditure. If this had not happened, the taxes here woti’d have had to meet this amount, meaning an increased rate and heavier burde,n. , The plans of Governor McNutt are working out and to the great advantage of the general taxpayer on real estate or personal property. Congress will adjourn in a fewdays. It has been a long, hot and tedious session, during which much important legislation has been passed. Being a law- maker is not the easiest task in tire world and we feel that James I. Farley has done well in his record again. He has voted as he believed was most advantageous to his constituents and that of course is his duty. Recognition of Governor Paul V. McNutt as a member of President Roosevelt's Works Progress Advisory Board is appreciated in Indiana where he has for a year past now been recognized as an unusua’ executive and thinker. He is a man of action, who is serving the people far better than most of them realize and he will prove a most valuable member of the works progress board. The city light plant continues to grow and to progress as is evidenced by the new line to the sugar factory and soy bean plant, work on which was begun toda.y. The officials here are glad to accommodate each and every industry and appreciate the added return this will mean to the treasury. Cooperation is the greatest thing in any community and we are sure it is noticeable here. Mayor Bangs of Huntington is evidently tired of grandstanding by continuing to operate from a cell in the jail. After a hundred days there, he is now free on bond. ■Whatever his ideas he should re-

member that the mine run of pooi pie believe that laws ought to be obeyed. If they are bad. change them, hut as long as they are on the statute books, courts will not aid those who believe they are t Just so much paper. j A sewage disposal plant here would prove a wonderful thing and 1 it can probably never be obtained as cheaply as now. The Federal 2 government will pay forty-five per 0 cent of the estimated SIOO,OOO cost ? and the balance can bo financed 5 , 0 through national sources at low 5 interest rates and extended over ® such a time that It will scarcely be felt. Besides the great convenience of such a plant, the project would provide labor for a number of men. Indiana's senators, VanNuys and Minton, have agreed on Charley t James of Austin to be United States marshal in southern Indiana, a selection that will please those who know this splendidly qualified , man. James, president of the In- . diana Association of Township ■ Trustees, has friends in every i county in the state. This is the . first real evidence that any misunderstanding that may have existed, is now in the past and the leaders of the Democratic party are going to step forward in step and with the force that counts. It won't seem just the same to theater lovers, to those who have become accustomed to read and depend on ‘the quaint, wise and humorous sayings of Bill Robers. when the supply of films and manuscript now on hand are exhausted, i He was the favorite character in the United States, had no enemies and millions of boosters. He was , always the same. In good times and bad times, he kept his feet on the ground and his words the past few- years have done more to enl courage those in distress than did i those of all the scientists, financial experts and "brain trust" specialists. His life is a story that will be told in the years to come and we are glad to have known him, as every one did. 0 ( *■ « Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed I on Page Two. * —♦ I 1.

or 20 superlative looked, the chosen ones to be glorified tn "Chute the Chute". A brief survey proves Hollywood's most joked about producer to be no msan picker either. From his choruses came Paulette Goddard, Virginia Bruce. Betty Grable, Toby Wing, Claire Dodd and numerous other beauties to rise to prominence. The Francesca Braggtotti production of the oriental pantomime, "Sumurum", will find Ernst Lubitsch a curious onlooker at the Hollywood Bowl It was in a Reinhardt staging of the same piece that Ernst made his last professional acting appearance. He portrayed the hunchback and Fola Negri was the star. We questioned this one. but Dick Foran swears It's true. The other day. Hollywood's newest western star came in from location abjut dawn. He'd bought a roan stallton in Kernville, and he was stumped to find a stable for the horse at such an hour. So Dick carried the roan up to his apartment house in Hollywood and—well, he won't budge from

"Who's doing all the whinnying down here?" he demanded. "It must be my horse." said Dick. “Your horse,” sputtered the landlord. "Well, get him out of here and, if it ever happens again, you'll leave tool” Fine doings tor an ex-Princeton boy. Yon Asked Me and I'm Telling Yeu I
