Yesterday might have seemed like a day in May, but still it's too early to look for fishworms. The impounded $200,000 000 of AAA processing taxes, which the courts have ruled must he paid back to the processors, will not come from the U. S. treasury. The money was never paid to the government and now ft is just a ques tion of disbursing it to those who have a share in the fund. TT 1Advertising is figured as part of sales cost and is a small percentage of the total overhead of any business. Through its use, volumne; is increased and costs are reduced, which fact eliminates a direct ebst, I either to the advertiser or purchas- 1 er. Buy advertised goods and | you'll receive the best for less money. The Commodores have made a great showing and should not feel the least bit discouraged because they dropped a game to Hammond. No business will bring victories every day and no one can go through life without taking a few set-backs. It's better that reverses do come along, for it makes us, light harder the next time and I teaches us to give and take. It's the same old story. A woman poured kerosene on a cook stove fire in order to hurry it along and an explosion followed. Two children were burned to death and the house destroyed by the flames. There should be some other meth od in kindling a lire. Why not dip the kindling, paper or torch in the coal oil and then light a matcu to it. Dashing kerosene on a deeded tire is dangerous business. The trustee of Perry township, where the Southport high school is located is in for more trouble. Dissatisfied residents wanted to use the school house for holding an Indignation meeting and the janitor, a friend of the trustee, would not permit its use. They are planning to impeqeh the official, but probably will have to i n gage some other room for their meeting. Such scraps do not help a community. The practice of frisking attor neya for guns may be evoked, following the fatal shooting of an attorney in Chicago by an oppos ing member of the bar. The attorney followed the criminal type of person of killing in anger. An Irate, mad person will do most anything and the instance in Chicago is proof that even attorneys loose thsir heads They better stiirt the practice of checking the guns outside the court room and suve lives. A monthly payment plan will probably be devised and inaugurated for those who wish to con tribute towards the expense of

staging the Centennial celebration next summer. An event like the one planned here muat originate and he carried through ou sentiment and to plan a proper observance, funds will be needed. The i Chamber of Commerce committee is giving the matter careful thought and a convenient and easy method of contributing to the 1 cause will be worked out. , The railroads in this city appreI date the heavy increase in bus--1 iness the past year, largely occas- ’ stoned by shipments to and from , \ the beet sugar and soya bean I plants. Decatur is now recognized as one of the leading freight points in this section of the country. The number of cars moving in and out of the city is heavier than auy time in history and evidence that local industry is going I right ahead. Local railroad agents, appreciative of the business, are rendering service with a smile and proud of the distinction gained by Decatur in the railroad world. Back in 1933 banking conditions in Fort Wayne were anything but I rosy. Several of the larger banks II closed and it appeared depositors , would suffer unusual heavy losses. 1 With the recent announcement I that a 25 per cent distribution will 1 be made by the Old-First National . Bank, depositors will have receivi ed 65 per cent of their claims and assurance has been given that as liquidation progresses, more money will be forthcoming. It's a good indication of recovery. It also , proves that former values arc being restored and that fears of losing everything were largely excess 1 worries carried by a majority. 0 * TWENTY AGO TODAY i j From the Daily Democrat File | Jan. 15 — Americans fiee from Mexico as bandits threaten them.
