Its encouraging to see the old concrete and brick on the city pavements again after being snowbound for five or six weeks. The substitute farm measure seems to be as complete as the ■ I old one which was held unconstitutional and guided by the supreme ' court edict, should pass final test. I I — We approach the season for' basketball tournaments and the next month will have every fan up on his toes as he follows or reads returns of the big sports events. Artie Robinson of Indiana has decided not to run for the presidency. which is probably a wise decision, brought to a focus because of a lack of support either at home or any where else. If the Dallas, Texas, officials decide to come to Decatur they will' receive a welcome that will make them feel that Hoosier hospitality is of the same brand as that for which their own city is famous. The “outs” want in and thats why the G. O. P. press and platform is now ringing with propaganda to destroy the present ad ministration. They don't know why or care but they do know they want in. Reports show that fewer people were employed the last month than before, due no doubt to the fact that the extreme cold weather has held up business generally. With the break of spring however it is expected that a spurt that has not been equalled in years, will be general. For some reason or another, and we haven’t figured the why out yet. there seems to be a lack of political candidates this year. In this county it might be explained by the fact that so few offices are to be filled, but even in Allen and Marion and other large counties, the candidates seem to have found other jobs which are proving satisfactory. The fellow who thinks the mail carriers have a picnic or a soft Job would change their minds if they bad been with the men on those important jobs the past six weeks. In the ciues the streets and walks were dangerously icy and in the country the roads at times were almost impassable, but the boys plodded on and did the job in an maimer to merit the appreciation of every patron. Our sincere congratulations io Mr. and Mrs. William Bullemeier of Friedheim. who yesterday observed their 60th weddiug anniversary. To such wonderful pioneer citizens ss these wo nwn much lor they founded well and tile es-

ample of righteous aud clean living set by them, should be of value to all. Their hundreds of friends join us in wishing for them many happy returns of the day. If those who are broadcasting that Mr. Roosevelt Is so unsafe will turn to the financial pages, they will surely be convinced they are wrong. Os course they are aud know it but they have hopes of fooling enough people to win the election. And then what? They will not dare to change the program of the great president who in three years has brought this nation from distress to prosperity. Ira Wagoner is ouly one of a large number who hav’e taken the Democrat more than fifty years, proving this to be an institution of some age. We hope the others will all renew again that the old family may continue to be happy. We propose to do our best to make this the best year ever and every old timer as well as every younger person in the county will w-ant to i know all about the big Centennial . and the plans therefore. The Daily Democrat by the way is thirty-three years old and was established as a weekly 79 years | ago. Its almost ridiculous how careful Governor Hoffman is being to see that no harm comes to Hauptmann. Those who have invest!I gated the crime, questioned the condemned man or had any thing j to do with the case, pretty gener- ! ally agree he is guilty. He is an I alien, has never satisfactorily explained how or when or where he | i got the marked ransom bills, has been convicted in court and his case affirmed by the supreme courts of New Jersey and the United States and yet there are those who would give him further opportunities. Its even losing interest. Q Answers To Test Questions | Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two ♦ ♦ 1. Alexander Hamilton. 2. Ichnology. 3. John Tyler. 4.

REPORTITALY PLANS DRIVE New Offensive Thrust By Italian Army Thought Likely By Reynolds Packard. (UP. Stat! Correspondent) (Copyright 1936 by UP.) Asmara, Eritrea, Feb. 24- (UR) —Marshal Pietro Hadoglio. comI mander-in-chief of the East Afrilean armies. Is planning u new mystery offensive ill 10-.iopia, it was believed today. After a month spent camping 1 along the Italian northern front, | during which I saw the capture of I Amba Aradam. I am convinced '(hat that Italian army machine is I moving at last, and is most likely ! to make unexpected advances beI fore the heaVy rains set in in June. Marsliag Badolgio is one oT the most cautious and careful of modern military men. and certainly will not take any chances. But there is every sign that he is not going to be content with the expected capture of Amba Alagi. the 11,000-foot peak south of Amba ! Aradam. I have reason to beiieve that the ■ Italian high command realizes that the present time is propitious for action. An army regarded as the strongest Ethiopia ever put into j the field has been routed, in the j Italian opinion, though it was enI trenched upon the great natural fortress of Mt. Aradam. eight miles wide, three miles thick, 10,000 feet high, honeycombed with caves and wrinkled with ridges. After Mt. Alagi. there arc no other great natural obstacles as formidable in the path of the Italian advance, according to opinion here, nor is it considered likely that Ethiopia can raise another army as that which faced the Italians at Amba Aradam. It is indicated that not even the “Tittle” rains scheduled to begin before the end of March should imede the Italian advance, if one is decided upon. During the six days of the fighting at Mt. Aradam, rain poured down each day, and some of the downpours were phenomenal. Yet the Italian advance continued on schedule. There are many who believe that Italy's heavy and complicatMan’s Heart Skips Beats—Due To Gas W. Ia Adams was bloated so with gas that his heart often missed beats after eating.

cd military machine has attained thc proper momentum, and will gai nenough speed before the big i rains to force diplomats to seek a i pacific settlement of the war. , ARRIVALS .
