The whole landscape was refreshed and nature continues to work its miracles and unfold its beauties. Although! the Dionne quintuplets still remain the show of the j world, the country extends con-1 gralulations to the New Jersey parents, blessed with quadruplets, or numerically speaking just one short of the record. May they all, enjoy health, happiness and an * abundance of prosperity. Memorial Day falls on Saturday this year and sentiment among the j merchants is in favor of closing j their stores. People are more or less in a holiday mood and even if the stores were open, trade would not be normal. Most of the shopping can be done before, but the point is to remember that you do I it before Saturday. Patrons of the City Light and Power department are pleased: with the new system of mailing monthly bills. Time is saved at j the cashier's window and each per-| sou knows the amount of their j account before the final payment date. Those in charge of the collection department urge you not to forget to bring the bills with you when making payment. Young Robert Taft, son of the former president finds himself pitted against Senator Borah in the Ohio presidential preference primaries. The Ohio favorite-sou should win and no doubt will. The Republicans of the state are no doubt grooming him for larger political honors and by runuiug him in the presidential primary accomplish au aim of gettiug his name before the public. Victory will also give him strength. The petunias are bloomiug and within a couple of weeks there will be thousands of the beautiful flowers throughout the city. As part of the Centennial decorative scheme, the Civic Section of the Woman's club is sponsoring the planting of these bright and cheery looking flowers at the entrances to the city and in front of the public buildings. Cooperate with them by putting out a bed of petunias in the yard. The national board of kidnapers was cleaned yesterday with the arrest of Thomas Robinson by the "G" men. Robinson was wanted for the abduction of rich Mrs. Stoll of Louisville and bis freedom was a little longer than the usual run allbtted kidnapers. J. Edgar Hoover and iris force of officers have proved' that criminals cannot escape his net. no matter how much they try or where they go. Robinson was living under au assumed name in Glendale.

DANGEROUS LOOPHOLE; A dispatch from Chicago deJ scribes the efforts of attorneys to | find a legal loophole through which Al Capone may escape from the term he is now serving on Alcatraz island. The chance that this former baron of the underworld might defy the law and society is based on a recent interpretation of a ■ Federal statute. The difference between “a” and > j"the” in the statute was used to' effect dismissal of fraud indict-j | ments against six executives of] the Trustee System Service Cor-j potation, a small loan organization. 1 Capone's attorneys, it is reported. I will attempt to free their notorious, client by taking advantage of the I legal grammar. Applictaiun for a writ of habeas corpus is said to be the first step. Some United States attorneys j admit there might be basis for the | plea. Others contend that the argument will not be sustained, since it was neglected at the time of Capone’s trial. Any effort to free Capone on' what, to the lay mind, would bej but a flimsy technicality would 1 arouse resentment. Indignation has been mounting in recent years over the readiness of courts to recognize legal quibbling which makes a mockery of justice. The nation also is still smarting over the inability of the law to convict Capone for a iong list of alleged gangland murders. Eventually the govertuuent imposed sentence for the comparatively mild offense of income tax evasion.— Indianapolis Star. 0 — * STATE * I‘ER,SON ALITIES Elective And Appointive Officers of Indiana. - • 4 . 1.

G.O.P.HEADS PLAN PLATFORM Republicans Planning Work-Relief Platform Plank Washington, May 13.- <UPJ —The workrelief platform u|>on which the 1936 presidential candidate will stand began today to take recognizable form.. Republicans meeting In national convention June 9 probably will be influenced iu drafting their rehef plan by the program offered In the senate by Sen. Arthur Vandenbrg, R.. Mich . and the similar Republican suggestions voted down by an overwhelmingly Democratic house of representatives. The house this week adopted a deficiewy MU carrying <1.425.01*0.000 for works progress administration made-work relief projects. It ,was a strictly new deal measure. The VuudcUberg alternative would provide <1,500.000.000 plus unexpended relief balances. Both Vandenberg and the house Republicans hit at the fundamentals of new deal relief administration. They stood out for home rule in relief matters. Vandenberg's program: 1. Relief administration by state boards with responsibility to use either dole or made-work. 2. Allocation of relief funds to state boards on pro rata basis, considering population, unemployment, living costs, and tax resources. 3. Provision of 25 per cent of

relief funds by the slate*. This coincided almost exactly with the first point of a program offered in the house by Rep. John Taber, R„ N. Y., senior GOP mem her of Ule house appropriations committee. Taber's amendments: 1. To substitute the dole for work relief, shift adminUtrutive responsibiUty for relit from the federal to state governments and require states to contribute 25 per cent of the gloss relief load.. 2. Reduce the Teuuesaee valley authority appropriation iu the deficiency bill from approximately <40,000,000 to <35,000,000, 8. Forbid expenditure of any of the, <1.425,000,000 relief fund for Dr.. Rexford G. Tugwell's resettlement administration. These amendments were ddfeated in the house, but they outline objectives Republicans are likely to emphasise when they draft their 11*36 platform at Cleveland. o Trade In a Good Town — Decatur
