Although Mayor Bangs remains in jail, he still holds onto his offi cial job. The council failed to pass the ouster ordinance over his veto and he continues to do business from the county bastile. It we were he we’d get out and go to the lake. in three and one halt years ut Roosevelt only eight banks have closed their doors and no depositor has lost a penny.

In compiling the Centennial edition, we learned there are 17 towns in the country named Decatur. Can you name them? An interesting story is printed in the anniversary edition and you'll enjoy reading it. Qur city is the third largest Decatur in the list. Adams street, west of Second street, which is being resurfaced, will be opened for Centennial, per- i mining traffic east and west through 1 the town. The street is being repaired under a WPA project and I the city, the work doing much to improve the appearance and general utility of this important thoroughfare. The Spanish revolt continues in intensity. Due to censorship, the count of what is really happening in the old empire. If the present government is overthrown we don't } see where the people would help themselves by restoring the weak ling King Alfonso to the throne. 1 He d have a soft job and the eoun try would still have trouble, uu employment and revolt. When a man asks for a job, the first thing the employer usually} inquires about is his experience. If voters are as careful in employing their public officials they should not have any trouble in deciding to elevate Cliff Townsend from the lieutenant-governor’s job to the governorship. Townsend Is not only qualified by experience, but iiossesses the leadership to give Indiana good government.

At nominal cost, the decorating company which will furnish the street and light post decorations will adorn the store fronts and in that way accomplish a uniform and attractive decorative scheme. Those who wish to do the work themselves, are of course invited to do so, conforming to some extent to the general plan in vogue. Deputy Sheriff Leo Gillig makes , a few suggestions, helpful to the public and if followed, will to some extent lessen the possibility of theft and loss to property owners. The deputy suggested that citizens leaving their homes should see tlft.it the doors were locked. On the farm. Deputy Gillig suggested that it would be wise to have one member of the family remain i on the place, especially during the time when strangers or people of unknown reputation were in the! community. He also cautioned per sons not to carry an excessive amount of money wTtli them, as suming of course they had the money.

COUNCIL WILL (CONTINUED FROM rxOE ONE) The matter was referred to the board of public works and safety. Chris Boknecht appeared before the council to formally rescind his offer of free paiking on the back end of his lots south of the city hall.

SPREADDRIVE TO UNIONIZE Union Drive Is Extended To Include -DO,OOO More Workers Washington. July 22-(I’Pl-ThJ, insurgent John L. Lewis fwiion of the federation of labor, nearing a probable direct break with its parent organization- spread its dr re for industrial unionization of the steel industry today to embrace 4a1).000 additional workers in steel processing and fabricating plant ß Announcement that the uniondrive would include fabricating planta came from Philip Murray vice president of the United Mine workers of America, chieftain of the steel organization campaign. Extension of the drive nit-ans that the committee for industrial organization, led by Lewis, is seek- i ing to draw into union ranks from the steel and related industries approximately 1,000.000 workers. In the steel mills along 500.000 workers are employed. At the same time leaders of the C. 4. O- who broke with the federation yeaterday by stoutly refusing to read a federation counci: trial summons on ‘’insurrection charges, indicated that they were prepared to stand pat. Any compromise proposal designed to heal the most serious organization breach in the federations history must come from president William Green and his jraft union . lieutenants, it was said. Murray, who speaks with a daitinct Scotch burr said that demands < from w orkers in fabricating plants had been such that they could not be refused charters in the Amalgamated Association of Iron Steel and Tin workers, a federation union which had strength of only S.6ot> until the C. I. O. started its drive. Murray charged that tne Carne-gie-Illinois company .which he termed a subsidiary of United States steel, was “paying directly for" 40 special deputy sheriffs in Allegheny county, Pennsylvania, in an effort to cope with the industrial offensive of the C. 1. O. Employment ot the special deputies, he asserted, was made possible through utilization of a "loophole” in the Pennsylvania state law banning the company private police system. o Trade in a Good Town — Decatur
