If you see what you want, liave it laid away. The Kentucky election should cause those who favor a sales tax : in Indiana, to seriously consider. We are sure the great majority of Hoosiers would resent such action, j even more decidedly than did our i neighbor to the south. A poll, or at least a supposed i survey, recently taken on the prohibition question shows that 36% think conditions are better now j than in the “dry” days. 33% insist there is no difference, so you can figure it out to your own desires and tastes. Northwestern University finally won from Notre Dame after thirtyfour years of game effort on the gridiron. Usually they have lost by a close score but this time they came through with a 14 to 7 victory that upset the dope and surprised the fans every where. Jim Farley and Homer Cummings finally got tired of sitting idly by and permitting Fletcher and other Republicans say anything they pleased. At a maeting in New Haven, Connecticut, they told what they think of their views and from now on you can expect plenty of polities everywhere. Steel shipments for October — and you know this is supposed to be the barometer of business — was 686,741 tons as compared to 316.007 in 1932, a gain of more than a hundred per cent. Let those who find fault with the administration explain that in their' efforts to win next year's election. Reports are that Bruno Hauptmann is getting nervous, which is not surprising. Five men have walked past his cell to the electric chair and another is scheduled to

| make the trip this week. Even u man with the iron nerve of the kidnaper might be expected to weaken finally under such an envirotnent. Bank statements, here and elsei where as of November Ist, show [ a continued increase, due to better times, the insurance of deposits aud the fact that the banking situation has cleared, due to the prompt aud efficient acts of President Roosevelt. We are on the way to that era of prosperity, unequalled in history. The biggest problem to solve the next year is the regulation of driving in order that the death rate from accidents may be reduced or completely wiped out. Figures for this year will show a gain and unless something is done, the results in another tew years will be even more terrible. Every community and every state should get busy. Governor McNutt would like to call a special session of the legislature for next month, to continue five days, and to enact such measures as are necessary to comply with the federal program. Os course thats what ought to be done, provided the members of the Assembly will comply and not try , to put over a lot of pet measures and continue the session the limit lof forty days. — The News-Sentinel is boosting I the cause of Herbert Hoover again ’ and more power to them. The | Democrats no doubt would welcome a campaign in which the exPresident was again a candidate. . He would find it tough going for ! less people now- have faith iu his : imlicies than ever beforq aud the I sad part is that none of the others ! proposed are much improvement. I Its a sad plight. i- - — Business is improving right along for those who use judgment in going after it. No one will get far in the game of selling unless he 'uses"a3vertising and of course there is only one sensible way to do that and that is through the newspapers. This has been tried out by millions during the past decade or two, with the results always tlte same—newspaper adveri tising pays the largest returns. In a statement issued immediately after the recent election returns began to come in aud probably prepared long before. Nationt al G. 0. P. Chairman Fletcher said “The boondoggles are on their way out.” Well, if he figures it on the results of last week's election, they will have a long time to complete the walk. Sounds like some cheap campaign stuff in which he was trying to be cute. o . ■ — —— CHURCH REVIVALS First M. E. A large crowd wae present last night at the evangelistic service which is being held in the local Methodist Episcopal church. The Mason Bell Ringers lived up to the advance recommendations in regard to their program and presented a I very fine array of novelty instrumental numbers, with pictures and vocal selections. Rev. 11 R. Carson spoke on “If I Were The Devil” and outlined various methods of deceiving and betraying the people ol Decatur. He said the subject was sugI geslcd to him by Dr. Belgiu. an | evangelist who was in Decatur a few years ago. I Tonight th< Morfords will be pre- | sent to begin the leading of the musical part of the service. The girls chorus will furnish special music and the pastor wil bring another evangelistic message. The service begins each evening at 7:30 land an afternoon prayer meeting I is held at the church at 2:0fl p. m.

VICKS REPORTS HIGHER PAYROLL Employment At New High Peak; 161 Per Cent Payroll Increase Greensboro, N. C., Nov. IX- For the five months i>eriod ending October 31. employment here at the laboratories of Vick Chemical Company—makers of Vicks Vapoßub and other aids to better control of I colds —reached an all-time peak, and payrolls increased 164% over the corresponding period of 1934. This record is all the more im pressive in view of the fact that Vicks employment showed progressive upward steps throughout the depression. The company gained national recognition in 1932-33 —at the lowest point of depression —iu showing an employment iu-, crease of more than 100% over ’ the best normal records of pre-de- j pressiou years. At the same time the rather startling announcement that no Vicks salary had ever been cut because of “bard times.” This record Vicks has consist- > ently maintained — outstandingly doing its share to speed recovery in employment and wages during the past five difficult years. lu, fact, Vicks' expansion policies were already carrying out what the Federal government sought with its NRA in the summer of 1933 to increase employment — and it is noteworthy that Vicks still ad he res, in all its laboratories aud offices, to the five-day. 40-hour week prescribed by a code no longer binding. While exact figures are not available except for laboratory forces, the offices employees, technical staffs and management groups employed by Vicks have also shown marked increases iu payrolls and personnel through the years since 1928-29. LOCALS Mr. and Mrs. Fred Collier returned Sunday from Wateeka, Illinois, where they attended the funeral services for Mr. Collier’s uncle, Mrs. Walter S. Braden, held Sunday afternoon.
