Congressmen and senators are going to miss a lot of the seashore! fun this year lint they have completed a big job. I won't be a real world scries if they don't hunt old Babe Ruth and have him sticking around some where so the fans can cheer him. This time next year a warm campaign will be getting under way. In the meantime the boys who work at the great national game of po'itics are getting in training. It's encouraging to watch the market pages of the newspapers these days for every indication, points to an improvement along every line. Next year will be a record breaker for business. Get ready to go forward with the rest of the hustlers. Strange as it may seem after all the cheap yelping about the constitution. we are still doing busbj ness under the one written a cen-j tury and a half ago. and there is j not a red blooded American from j the President down, who would have it otherwise. Nearly eleven thousand hills were presented during the session of congress and of that number about one out of eleven got through, which is enough when we consider that several of the new measures will effect millions of Americans the next several years. Take a few days off and go to the state fair this year. You will be. well entertained and should see and learn some things that will be beneficial to you in the next year.' Indiana has a state fair that carries its own way and is one of •the few in the country that does. The Legionnaires have had another big time. There is nothing quite like these reunions when the boys get together and tell each other how they did it. They're a bunch of real fellows as was evidenced when the old war ended quickly after they got to going “over there.” The new social security act will become effective in 1937 and in the meantime each employer can be getting ready for it. After once established, we will wonder why it wasn't put on the books long ago. It will save many worries and make for a better feeling as between employer and employee. A bunch of hoboes, some of them •tough looking, hung around Decatur over the week-end. The more speed the officers put on these stragglers, the better it will be. Times axe getting better and they should be sent to their own homes ■where they can receive proper relief and jobs when they come under the big program now under way. Cordell Hull, secretary of state, appears to be a mild minaered man and ij until he is starred up.
Then he goes after things in a , two fisted way that shows why he has succeeded in public and private life. Just now he is telling Russia that a promise made to his '■ department is expected to be kept t and that we will stand for no “monkey business'' when It per- ( tains to "red” propaganda. t Indiana has lost one of her able citizens In the death of Lawrence Orr, who for many years has served witli credit as a member of > the state board of accounts. A Re- ' publican, he had the personality i which permitted him to give every i one who had business with him, a 1 square deal and friendly and helpful advice, and he numbered among his close friends and admirers many Democrats over Indiana. President Roosevelt, in his address to the Young Democrats Saturday evening advised them “not to stand still" with the conservatives hut to go forward with the progressives. His ideals and his I practical method of putting these !ideals into action, attract the young men and women of the country iand they will be a gre<U support to him in the campaign next year. Older folks may doubt some of the steps to advance, but the youngsters are not afraid. Next year will he an important one in Decatur for we are to observe the 100th anniversary of the founding of this city. There will he interesting and entertaining and instructive programs and everyone wiP enjoy this we know. We should likewise inaugurate a prograjn of advancement industrially and otherwise and carry it through!' I the first decade of the new century. that we may gather momentum and continue to progress. No community can stand still and we want to go on. not hackward. Congressman James I. Farley has accounted well for his votes in the session of congress which i has completed one of the busiest ' sessions of the history of the connI try. passing a number of far reach- | ing measures. As these came up. Mr. Farley counselled with his constituents and did his best to comply with their wishes. Frequently he voted against the administration because he felt the interests of the fourth district were thus best served. Mr. Farley has become an important member of congress and he can return to . his district with the feeling that he has nothing to apologize for. o * S T A R S IG N A L S * by Octavine For persons who believe that human destiny is guided by the planets the daily horoscope is outlined by a noted astrologer.
