! han granted the Kroger company 'a 30-day Injunction against execution of the state milk control board order prohibiting the onecent differential. » Constitutionality of the state j milk control law was upheld by I the state supreme court in a. de- 1 ■ vision rendered during the November term in 1935 on an appeal by ' i Frank Albert, a St. Joseph county t I milk dealer who refused to pur- ■ chase a license. 8 i Citing casm in which the t'nit- “ ed States Supreme court upheld constitutionality of the state nulk , coMrol laws of New York and I New Jersey—said to be similar to the Indiana legislation—the high r state court upheld the decision of the St. Joseph superior court. . , "xxx the power of the legis-, _ lature to regulate and control the I production, transportation, processing. storage, distribution and I sale of milk for human consump- . tion,” was upheld by the court. t The state milk control la.w was ' emergency legislation to eounteract "demoralizing trade practices J x x x which constitute a constant 1 menace to the health and public ' welfare of the inhabitants of this ( state and threaten the economic* . s integrity of the milk industry.” j The act automatically will become inoperative July I, 1937 tinI less it is extended by the 1937 ; ■ session of the legislature. o GIVE PROGRAM I j - Knox.

Savings in manufacturing costs will also be made with the operation of the new 2.000 KWH , turbine, now being installed. It is the intention of the council and board of works to put the new rates into effect with the November meter readings, which will be on or about November 20. The November bills, payable on or be(fore December 20, will be figured at the lower rates if the public service commission approves the schedule. All Under One Rate The new schedule sets up only one bracket of rates for residence lighting and combination light ' and power in residences. The reduced rates will apply on all residence lighting and a reduction i W’ill be given those formerly on the combination rate in the stepdown on kilowatts used. After the first 50 KWH which will he five cents per kilowatt per month, j the rate drops to fonr cents for ' the next 50, three cents for the next 25 and all over 125 KWH per month. 2'j cents per KWH. This reduced schedule will benefit the large user and make unnecessary the carrying of two schedules. In most cases where the consumer used more than 50 KWH per month, his meter was placed on vi combination rate. The minimum charge of $1.50 per month ie dropped to 50 cents, putting noth classes on an equal basts. The dropping to a five cent basic ra.te will benefit the smallest customer. If a residence has been using only 20 KWH per month, the saving to the customer will be 20 cents. For 50 KWH the saving is 50 cents per month. The present administration has

been figuring on the lower rates for some time, it was the desire of city officials to bring about a five cent light rate when the change was made so that every customer would benefit. The installation of the new 2,000 KWH turbine at the city plant will reduce operating costs and it Is the Intention of the council and city officials to continue the lower rate policy during the next couple years. Reductions will be made as rapidly as earnings permit, officials declare. Last January the industrial power rates were reduced. The increased use of more power by local industries haw more than made up the difference in volume ajid profits are ahead of a year ago. A low cooking rate was also established. It is believed that 1936 will be the banner year in the history of the local plant. Kilowatt production up to October 1, 1936, is 6.261.C00, which exceeds the total for the whole of 1935 and is within 700,000 of the peak year in 1929. It te expected that pro-

ROOSEVELT SON tleup.” Nye said that "absolutely no pressure" had been brought to bear from anv sources to prevent the development "of any part of this story.” “The committee had no knowledge of a very large part of the story being published in the Aero Digest which was obviously an article largely of Insinuation and innuendo.” Nye eaid. Nye said that the affidavit was released without discussion with other members of the committee but that he believed that the other members would feel that “out of sense of fairness to all parties concerned it should be given out." Fokker said Roosevelt was paid $5,000 in cash to sign the contract, but that the price eought for the planes by Roosevelt and an associate was “so high that the Russians would have nothing to do

' with the whole business and had ( ■ not bought any of the plajiea." The committee made public the deposition on orders of Sen. Gerald P Nye, H., N. D.. chairman, following published charges that It was withholding information. , Committee officials said the dei position was taken by Stephen Raushenhush and Joel Earnest, | committee tnvewtigajors. , At his home in Fort Worth, , Tex., young Roosevelt said the] I charges he was "connected with I t any group to sell war planes in j , | Europe” were untrue. i ( "Three years ago when Fokker' > ; came out with a new DC-2 type of ■ ■ transport," Roosevelt said. “I was l given a contract to sell planes In i I' Europe. By no stretch of the i - imagination could those planes be ' construed as war planes. I He said that after signing the , contract he c’eclded that the job j ! i of selling planes would mean deal- ■ ' ing with European governments, ■ | “which I thought I had better not >ido,” and that he asked to be re-

The charges, he said, "look like an effort to embarrass my father." - Trade In a Good Town — Decatur WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILEWithout Calomel—Ami lea'll Jump Out of Bed in ' the Morninz Karin’ to Go * Th» liver ohould pour out two pounds of IfcluM bile into your bowel; dntly.
