The spring of the year brings i about as many airplane tragedies as the automobit'. —— Mussolini started the war and now wants to have the final say in ! making peace terms. The average American home is now more or less concerned about window washing, dusting rugs and ' hanging paper and everybody wish-I ing -the job was done. r=-_===--The world watches the attempts 1 to rescue the entombed miners. : Two of the three men are still | living, according to latest reportsl and superhuman efforts are being ■ made to get them to the top. We | hope they succeed. Employment in this city is heavier than a few mouths ago. The ; farn~hus called back scores and i private industry is adding men to the payroll. It s a thrill to see men busily and happily at work and every eight hours something, has been contributed to the progress and welfare of the community. The county welfare board, which will handle, all the pension and re- . lief cases in the county, will be provided with offices in the court house. Space will be allotttcd to the department so the proper service can be rendered the public and improvements to the court house building will be made to provide the quarter*. Rev. H. It. Carson has been returned as pastor of the First Methodist church in this city, which fact pleases his congregation and the large circle of outside friends. The Carsons have made their home here for two years and Decatur, has enjoyed having them as citizens. Rev. Carson’s assignment was made at the Kokomo conference, which concluded its annual session yesterday. An astute politician and one of the dearest friends President Roosevelt had. passed with the death of Louis McHenry Howe He became a secretary to Roosevelt a quarter of a century ago when Mr. Roosevelt started on his political carter by election to the state legislature. Mr. Howe was loyal, a wise and keen adviser and his death causes sorrow in the White House and among those who Knew him best. Do you know where former residents of Decatur are living? A coupon is printed in this paper for the purpose of name and address of former Decafurites and you are asked to fill in the names of rela lives of friends who have moved from I his city so that invitations i I can be sent them for the home-, coming during Centennial week. The blanks are to be sent to Mrs. |

R. D. Myers and iu due course in- « vitutiona will be mailed. A campaign is underway, furthered by Republicans and autl--.Roosevelt meu, to kill the WPA t ' Enemies of the work relief agency like to refer-to it us boondoggling and extravagant. What doos the man who receives a minimum of -1 pay each month think of it? The s4t per month enables him to feed ; his family and he certainly does 1 not ligure that it is an extrava--1 gance. If the WPA were knocked . out, three and one-half inillon men would be added to the unemployment list. Many worthy projects have been completed by the WPA workmen and communities have received value beyond the cost of their own expenditures and further than that, children have been able to eat because their dad bad a job. What selfish interests are paying for all the anti-Roosovell prupa- • ganda? Expensively printed liter- ' ature is being circulated throughout the country attacking the president and his policies and idem ! tity of those who are putting up I the money is unknown. Generally ; speaking if organizations or indi- ' viduals put up huge sums of money ' to defeat candidates, they expect | something in return. President 1 Roosevelt gives the country strict ’ accounting of the money spent by I government to finance the various I departments and carry on public projects and makes a clean breast of things. The so-called Liberty i leaguers and other groups opposI ed to the President are making a ■ bitter tight to keep the Senate | lobby investigating committee from | revealing who's paying the anti--1 Roosevelt printing bills.

Leave For Home I (Copyright 1936 by United Press) Geneva. Apr. 21—(U.R) —A committee of financial and economic experts met today to oppose, with their ledgers and adding machines the Italian tanks, armored cars , and ajiplanea converging on Addis Aiiaba and Harar. Members of the league of naI tions council, all but abandoning { Ethiopia to its fate because the i system of collective security under the covenant had failed in its | great test, prepared to leave for ! home. Many of them wondered wbeth- ; er, when they met again on May ill, there would be an Ethiopian delegate at their table; whether ; there would be, so fur as government went, any Ethiopia. From the standpoint of direct ! action, the league had failed dismally in one of the saddest meetings it over held. It was admitted that there was no applicable means to prevent Italy from completing the conquest of its fellow league member.
