Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies. Would William Randolph Hearst be secretary of state or secretary of the treasury in the event of the election of Landon? The nation will listen to its President Saturday night when President Roosevelt delivers his acceptance speech from Franklin Field. Philadelphia. The radio will bring his voice to you and if you are wondering on what grounds the campaign will be waged, time in and hear h in. it seems that the Republican writers and members of the Hoover party are more interested in John Hamilton, young chairman, than they are Alf Landon, standard bearer. Hamilton is making the wise-cracks, predictions and speeches. He brings a laugh with the prediction that Landon will carry 42 states. He's new at the job. The cast of six hundred persons for the historical pageant to be given during Centennial week has been selected and rehearsals will begin next month. The committee advises that those who wish to take part in the performance to get in touch with Mrs. Chalmer Porter, chairman, and a place will be given them in the production. No one is barred and those desiring parts are invited to participate. Indiana is proud of the recognition given Wayne Coy of Indianapolis, federal relief director for the state, Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia. President Roosevelt selected . Coy to write the welfare and relief planks in the platform. His experience and sincerity equips him for the important post. Coy has made an enviable administrator of the work relief agencies under his supervision and knows first hand what is practical and beneficial. Tin- federal government has allotted funds for the purchase of a site and construction or a new postoffice building in Berne. The original petition was for 367,000, which sum will no doubt be sufficient to construct a beautiful and useful building. Congressman James I. Farley was instrumental in seeing that the petition was given earnest consideration by the treasury and postoffice departments, with the result that Borne will soon be able to point to its CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers are requested to give old and new address when ordering paper changed from one address to another.

' new federal building. It will serve p thia progressive community well and will be appreciated by the citizenry. *• About 50 employes of the Decat tur Works Joined the Fort Wayne delegation from the General Elect trie company on an excursion trip . to Washington today. A special t train, including Pullmans and dining cars was chartered and the > several hundred girls left in high > spirits in anticipation of the happy ! vacation. To all we wish the most ) joyous vacation they ever had. > Washington, most important of any ( world capitol, is a great place to visit and the General Electric employes will make the most of their three-day visit. They will be guests of Mrs. Roosevelt at the White House, a treat which comes only once in a lifetime. Decatur is always delighted with the “drop in” visits from Gerard Swope, keen and observing executive and genial head of the General Electric company. Mr. Swope's enthusiasm is unbounded. ■ He bristles with life and the daily adventure which life affords. With him two minutes, and you are ini- > pressed with his sincerity, his var i led interests, the zest he puts into > his job. Like all great men with . multipile duties, he is as common as any Hoosier. Each time he comes to Decatur he makes a visit i to the Homestead project. Prob-| ably next to the great industrial organization which he heads, the creating of better home life is one of his chief'purposes. He is much interested in the local development and Decatur, "or which we are all l grateful. We had the privilege yesterday to accompany Mr. Gerard Swope, president of the General Electric company and other officials of this great industry, on a trip through the Decatur works of the company. One's enthusiasm was keyed to high pitch as he saw this modern plant in operation. More than 3001 people were employed and in the short space of time to walk' through the factory a person saw' the first operations on a motor and the finished product boxed, sent to the shipping room and loaded in freight cars. The plant seethed with activity. Every person nad his or her job to perform and there was not a hitch any place. The conveyor system ran as smooth as ribbon. One s imagination was stirred with the sight and one's heart was filled with appreciation for the great contribution indus-' try makes to communities. And tribute is due to the meu and women who keep the wheels of this modern factory running, the product which is produced by their labor being proof of the deftness of their hand, their energy and best effort. It's a marvelous sight to see —a great daylight saving type factory, modern machinery I running full tilt and hundreds of' people gainfully employed. o— ——— Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed | on Page Two 1.
