Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dallies. The high peak of the campaign In Adams county will be the ad 1 dress of Governor McNutt here Friday afternoon. Hear him. Get out the vote and we will wager that the majorities will be I more than satisfactory to the Democrats of Adams county. VOTE FOR TOWNSEND. HE IS YOUR FRIEND AND WILL HELP SOLVE THE PROBLEMS YOU CAN SAFELY ADVISE WITH HIM Next Friday should be a red letter day in Decatur, with Governor McNutt here in the afternoon and the big Halloween celebration in ! the evening. The sooner this nation goes hack to church, believes in it. works for it and gives it the time and effort desired, the sooner will we become normal, happy and prosperous. Get the vote out, thats the important part about an election When all the people speak, the majority should and will win and no one can complain of the results but the stay-at-homes frequently permit a minority to control. "I Actual tax money speat in Indiana this year was more than fortythree million dollars less than in 1132. Isn’t that after all the best proof of a good administration. Remember the opposition is trying to cloud the real issues. The national budget will be balanted and the debt reduced without you feeling it if you permit President Roosevelt to proceed with the plans he made several , years ago and has been courageously and faithfully carrying out. The fear propaganda now being put out by the Republicans is about as good as the statement i four years ago by Mr. Hoover that if Roosevelt was elected, grass would grow on the main streets of every town and city in America. When Heart donates to a political campaign, he thinks he can get it back and he wants it even if it takes action which the president does not approve of and he is now the heaviest contributor to the Republican national committoe. Chalmcr Sell lustier ol' Indianapolis will speak at Geneva Wednesday night at a Democratic meeting that should attract a large crowd. Mr. Schlusser is one of the ablest orators in Indiana and will bring a message that will help you regarding the important issues of the day. Governor London is nursing a sore throat which is not unusual for those tkho speak daily for weeks and often out of doors. Governor McNutt who Jurs been campaigning for six weeks and who as he puts it has "been having trouble with his speaking pipes'

says that forcing the voice after it' i gives out is about like standing on a sprained ankle. Off for the lust work of the cam- ■ patgn. Every citizen who believes . In good government, who desires the improvement to continue, who; favors the people against selfish Interests, can help by persuading 11 neighbors or friends to vote for 1 Roosevelt, Townsend, Farley and I \ the local ticket. Get busy today i amt keep it up until the close ofl I the polls one wobk from tomorrow. II j Don't overlook the fact that re--1 gardless of who is elected preslI dent this year, the United States senate will be Democratic. The same thing is probably true In this state where it is necessary only to elect nine to control and that ap- j pears certain. To not elect the Democratic candidates is to just j mark time for two years and the ; good Lord knows we can't afford j to do that now. Don't be foolish in this election., i You know of the progress that is. | being made and you know it required wonderful leadership in the j state and nation to make the show- 1 ing that has been made in the past three years. Farmers, laboring; | men, merchants and every oiie else j | are getting back to normalcy and the future looks the brightest for many years. Vote the Democratic ticket and keep the good work go ing. Don't change horses at this time, fts dangerous. Business men over the country I dined Friday evening and speeches were heard in many cities advo- j eating the reelection of President: i Roosevelt. Among the speakers in ' | New York City was Henry Morgi enthau, secretary of the treasury, and one of the greatest financiers in the world: “The best proof of safety for our government, is the fact that investment bankers are I buying U. S. bonds, due in twentyfive and thirty-five years and bear ing interest or less. Future - America is safe and no one will be . fooled enough to sell short.'' Just as a matter of curiosity we J counted the Ohio cars along Sec . oud street Saturday evening and i quit when we reached fifty, though i we know there were many more. I Ohio people like to trade here because they like Decatur merchants and because they don't like thei Ohio tax law. If you don't believe that, ask those who trade with you. Why any merchant should be shortsighted enough to want to disre- j gard this extra business, we can t j imagine and we don't believe those who give it serious thought, will do so. Vote for Townsend. , Cliff Townsend is the best train-, ed man in Indiana for the governorship. As lieutenaut governor I | he has made good in a big way and he knows exactly the duties of the chief executive. He is honest aud ! capable and deserving. To vote i against him is to vote against your 1 own best interest aud you will soon realize it. The repeal of the gross income tax law will mean a big increase in your local taxes or a sales tax, neither of which is desired. 1 Don't let them fool you just so 1 they can get an office. Mr. Townsend will he glad to recommead such changes in the law as are ’ Tair and will not Invalidate the ilaw. Nothing could he fairer and ! nolhing you can do will he better generally. One of the most effective speech . es of the campaign was that made by Hon. Jesse Jones, chairman of .'the RFC, at Detroit. He gave I some facts that no doubt surprisi, ed all who heard him, including [I the statement that fifteen billion dollars has been loaned by the i RFC, Home Owners Loan, Federal i Farm. FHA and Relief board and I that there will be absolutely no 1 loss and most of this has already j ■been re turned to the government. • Mr. Jones, who is one of America's i great business men says he favors . ’ retiring these agencies as rapidly jas the need diminishes. He do- 1 )

dared the budget will be balanced soon by the increased income due to improved business and closed by saying "For what he has done , for all of us. I regard the re-elec-tion ot Mr. Roosevelt, to be for the best interests of the country."

The human element must be edu- | cated. The driver of a car must reali ize his responsibility. Schools, clubs, j safety organizations, societies, and many other groups of people are ttyiug desperately to instill into the mind of hvery automobile driver that proper training in the handling of an automobi'e is necessary. It is 'easy to train the higher types of | apes, doge, cats, and even lower olintals to operate a car in a circus ring to the satisfaction of an audi- | elite, but it is som .’imes humanly impossible to instill into the minds of so:rt- drivers the absolute necessity tor safe driving Win n the day comes that auto-
