Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dallies. What do you know about the’ Hoover boom? ' ’ Win with Roosevelt and push America forward. Over here it's Roosevelt or Landon. In England it's only one — ! Mrs. Simpson against the world. — Lest we forget, men were looking for work in 1932, where in 1936. industry is looking for men to work. _______ Davey Hogg makes a feeble plea why he wants to go to congress. The truth is the voters feel the same way about it. If anyone kicks ou federal pay roll taxes, mark it down that he is no friend of social security, job insurance and pensions for aged workers. The Daily Democrat will gather the election results and furnish the vote to those who call on the county races. You are invited to PHONE ONE THOUSAND. Reinefiiber that if you earn less than ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS a year, you do not pay a gross income tax. Under a sales tax they would nick you for about S3O. Former Governor Harry Leslie, might not be ashamed of his own . record, but he didn't spend much time praising the administrations of other Republican governors— McCray and Jackson. Senator James Couzens st Mich- ■ igan, critically ill, has the country pulling for him. One of the most able men in the nation, it would be a great loss to have him removed from active life. Can you imagine Governor Landau dealing with the monetary problem, the jteace cause and the 1 furthering of social legislation • which held this country together i in 1933, like President Roosevelt i did and will continue to do? Ohio has a sales tax and many I residents from that state come I here to shop in order to "beat” it. Decatur merchants profit by this increased business and the extra volutnne goes a long way to pay their entire gross income tax. Four years ago industry and municipalities were handing out > scrip. No money to pay employes, 1 no money in the bank, and America had to resort to printing press i paper, a rake-off being made on I every SIOO worth sold. Wbat a' difference now. If candidate Springer’s management of his defunct insurance' company is an example of his business ability, the voters of Indiana can chalk up a - other reason why they don't want him as governor. That's a job where yon have to be on the trigger. Tax paying time does not hold the nightmare it did a few years ago. More people have the money,

!to pay their tax bill and the i amounts are lower, due to reducod rates in the townships and other taxing unite. In this county the delinquencies will be small. h Cliff Townsend knows what state | government is and has not made ( any foolish promises to the people. He is sincere and knowing the t facts refuses to make vain promises which he knows full well no I 1 administration could carry out and • at the same time keep the schools I and government running. II i' Jeff Liechty, county treasurer; J; Dallas Brown, county sheriff; Walt I Gilliom. county surveyor; Moses ‘ Augsburger, county commissioner, ' and Bob Zwick, county coroner, I are candidates for re-election. They have rendered good and honest ‘ service the past two years and the voters will return them to office. President Roosevelt will return | to Washington from his New Eng- | land trip and will not be able to stop in Fort Wayne, as first anI uounced. The President is no doubt the busiest man in the couuI try and pressing business calls | him back to the White House, the people admiring his adherence to duty although regretting that he can't visit Indiana. i It sounds so foolish. Candidate Landon and the Republican broadcasters bemoan the fact that America is in debt, that we are headed for bankruptcy, that our grandchildren will have to pay.! and still they want the job of administering governmental affairs , If they think that things are in! I such bad shape, why not let Mr. ! I Roosevelt carry on? He is not j afraid and can handle the job. j ==- Before the social security act was passed, many of America's i leading industries had their own ! job insurance and pension plans for workers. Here in Decatur we | saw the benefits of these plans when employes were paid an average of sls weekly while industry was down in 1931 and 1932.1 The employes help support such a ' program. Now under the federal, act job insurance benefits will be | extended to every employe. Right after the election, let’s get busy with plans for Christmas. i The big holiday season is less than two months away and it is time to | plan for it. Shopping should be greater this year than any time ‘ since 1929 and many towns are planning city-wide events, such as' ; Christmas shopping weeks and , opening of gift and toyland depart- 1 meats. We assure the merchants and Chamber of Commerce that the Daily Democrat will be glad to join in such plans and help pub-! licize any community event sponsored by the local organizations. o — Answers To Test Questions Below are th* answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two A 4 1.

VETERANS ENDORSE CLIFF TOWNSEND —— Cliff Townsend. Democratic candidate for Governor, has received ■the endorsement of Marion. Indiana Post No. 2, of the United Veter- • ans. it became known today. The Marion Post is composed of over 400 member*, both RepubI Beaus and Democrats and when the resolution was presented at a meeting recently, only four votes were cast against it. s I The resolution, as adopted, bore the signatures of Ernest M. Zook, adjutant and John R. James, commander. It scored tne tax plan Os ', Raymond Springer, Republican gubernatorial candidate. ■ The text of the resolution follows: , i "WHEREAS. The disabled veterans, their widows and orphans j have always been exempt from taxation In the State of Indiana on ' j their pensions from the Government of the United States, and > "WHEREAS, The issue in the present political campaign in the j State of Indiana is whether we shall have and continue the law known as the Gross Income Tax Law of 1933, or whether this law shouTlt be ’ repealed and a Sales Tax Law passed and the burden of taxation placed on the small salaried workers and the pensions of the disabled veterans, their widows and orphans, and "WHEREAS. The nominee tor Governor on the Democratic ticket. Clifford Townsend, is against the imposition of a Sales Tax upon the I ' pensions of disabled veterans, their widows and orphans, and Raymond } Springer, the candidate for Governor on the Republican ticket is for a Sales Tax as demonstrated by the fact that he refused to deny this • fact when sent a telegram by a Commander of a veterans organization .' when speaking in Marion. Indiana, on the night of October 14th. 1936, asking him specifically to deny the fact that if elected lie would impose a Sales Tax, and "WHEREAS, Raymond Springer, the Republican nominee for Governor has retieatedly said that if elected he was in favor of spending j the $10,000,000 surplus built up in the State Treasury by a Democratic Governor and then, if necessary, pass such taxes as he saw fit. know- . ing this would create a further chaotic condition in the State as in ,I 1932 and ’33. and "WHEREAS. The veterans of Indiana have received more recog nition in the appointments to positions in the State of Indiana under i a Democratic Administration now in force than under any Republican Administration in the past twenty-five years, and “W HEREAS, The Democratic nominee for Governor has promised 1 to contintAt this policy of recognition. THEREFORE BE IT RESOLX ED. That Marion Post No. 2, United Veterans, in i meeting assembled this 16th day of October, 1936, do heartily endorse the election of M. Clifford Townsend, Democratic nominee for Goveri nor of the State of Indiana at the election November 3rd. 1936. and BE IT E i RTHER RESOLVED. That a copy of this Resolution lie spread upon the minutes of this Post, a copy be sent to the candidate for Governor and a copy be given to the local press for publication."

INTENT TO WED KING IS DENIED ■ . Friends Os Mrs- Simpson 1 Deny She Will Marry King Edward (Copyright 1936 by UP.> London. Oct. 22. - (U.R> — Mrs. . Wallis Simpson, expecting a dl- , vorce from Ernest A. Simpson with- , in a few days. Is firmly opposed to , the idea of a marriage with Klug I Edward, close friends said today. I It was insisted that Mrs. Simpson opposed the Idea of a mar-1 . riage under existing conditions ! both from her own viewpoint and . that of the king. i From her own standpoint, friends , said. Mrs Simpson would be too proud to accept any other postlion, us a kings wife, than that ,of queen with full recognition—which, on the basis of present talk. Jit might be impossible or imprac- ! livable to accord her. From the king's position, the , friends added, and as a real friend of King Edward. Mrs. Simpson is i proud of his position and of the I admiration and liking with which ’ , he is regarded not only in Great j Britain and the empire but in much I of the rest of the world. Hence,! they insisted, she would be the. last person to consent to anything | , i that might cause embarrassment ■ to his position as king. Mrs. Simpson ha* dismissed as I ,! "foolish" any mention of tne possibility that she might marry the king. Friends explained that Mrs., Simpson, liesides being an attrac-, tive, witty, clever woman who has j made marty friends in England is i extremely practical and proud. On her practical side, it is said, she i can see clearly difficulties which now appear to constitute a bar to any marriage between King Ed-' ward and a commoner which would j make the wife a queen. It is pointed out also that Mrs. I 1 Simpson's present position, as a, 1 close friend of the king, is per-I , haps socially superior to that ' which a woman might have as the i morganatic wife of a sovereign. I Not only Mrs. Simpson's friends.' but people in court circle and 1 'friends of Ernest Simpson ' who | know her well, agree that there is i

almost no chance that she would marry King Edward even If he expresod a desire for marriage. Dr. Justice Hawke Is to open the Ipswich assize* in medieval . ceremonial manner tomorrow Though he may regulate the course lof court business himself, it was believed likely that he would pursue the normal course and hear criminal cases first. The case of "Simpson W. vs. Simpson E. A." will take but 10 or 15 minutes to hear, however, and might be slipped in at uny time before the assizes end next Wednesday. Tuesday is still regarded as the most likely day. i Then, assuming that the decree 'is granted. Mrs. Simpson will be I free. She will have only a decree 'nisi, however. The divorce must be made absolute — so that she could remarry—on her application. Ordinarily the request for the degree absolute is made after an in- | terval of six months. In special cases, this interval might be shortened by a court's consent. But as soon aa the decree nisi is granted, there will be no more “Simpson E. A.” In Mrs. Simpson's life and she will be free to continue her friendship with the king as a free woman. The period of | court mourning for the late King I George has ended. The king will ! be free to appear more in public places, and Mrs. Simpson will be i able to appear with him as a ' friend. That the king intends to i be seen with her seeuis certain.
