Five words or less can be whipped into a catchy slogan for the Centennial. Give it a try. You may win the prize. Americans spend more than 11 billion dollars for food, which may not be surprising to the fellow who has been trying to appease hungry appetites. Whether one agrees with all of President Roosevelt's policies is beside the point. He has piloted the ship of state through choppy waters and has earned the right to stick to the helm. —Seattle Herald. Guard posts arc being placed at the east end of the city parking lot on First street, removing a hazard and making the place more adaptable to parking. You can park your car free on this lot and those who can't find space on the street are urged to avail themself of tha up-town parking lot. Plans are going forward for the electric cooking school tc be held at the K. of P. home April 15 and 16. Cooking with electricity will be demonstrated by a capable instructor, local dealers cooperating in the school. Sessions will be held afternoon and evening and the women of th-? community are invited to attend. The. storm in the south increases with latest reports, the death toll being nearly 400. From the flood stricken area in the east, the Red Cross was called to the storm ridden states to administer help to the needy and suffering. Contributions to the relief fund are still being received and those who wish to contribute may do so. John Del oss. well known young man and a member of the Adam county bar. has been named city attorney. He joined the official city family yesterday, succeeding the late Herman H. Myers. He has a tine sense of public duty, pleasing persotfaliiy and youthful enthusiasm which should help him in performing the duties of the important post. The reflectors which the state highway commission has placed at ends of bridges and culberts on state roads serve greatly in the public interest. This is true especially in the case where narrow bridges arc located. The reflectors give warning to the auto driver and no doubt thousands of accidents have been averted through their location on narrow driveways. Tlie New Jersey legislature will not investigate the Bruno Hauptmann case and all the angles of it. file members arc wise. The jury and court decided the case and

j what could a legislature do about p it now. An investigation would take a political turn and not accomplish anything. Even detectives and "G-Men' 1 were unable to *' uncover more of the terrible crime, t One of the big features of Centennial week will be the home- . coming. Mrs. R. D. Myers is chairt man of this division and in the ' very near future the campaign will 2 be on to obtain the names and adJ dresses of former residents of this ll city so iuvitations can be mailed to I j them. A coupon will be printed in > this paper and you are asked to ’ seud in the names of those who call Decatur home. ■ » • What are the Wall street boys howling about? Although federal expenditures have increased great- . ly and the national debt has run up 10 billions, value of stocks on . the New York Exchange has gone up 32 billion dollars since 1933. i Wealth has been restored to the American people and the governj meat's debt is small compared to the higher values resulting from : the policies of the administration . 1 in restoring the nation to a safe footing. WPA workers are doing excellent work in repair and construc- , tion program in the city and coun- ( ty. The interior of the jail has j been painted, new floors laid, and ! other repairs made.
