Plans to run railway trains 250 miles an hour. Boy, if one of those 1 hits us we will land in the Hudson river or Salt Creek Join the Red Cross. Time will be up a week from Thursday and it is hoped that before that time this county will have more than a thousand members. A son of President Roosevelt will marry a daughter of the Du-! Pouts, which may sound funny to those who know of the political sued between these two factions,! but love always did manage to; work through queer tangles. The Red Cross campaign is coming along. Do your part. The main thing is to join and get your card in the window so your neighbors will see it and be inspired to also become members of this great organization, the purpose of which is to relieve suffering in days of distress. Pressure being brought on the i Government for investigation of Federal Housing Administration' activities in the mortgage field will be disregarded, insiders say. on the theory that the demand for investigation is merely part of a campaign by private interests to stop long-term, Government-insur-ed loans, regarded as detrimental to their business. Cliff Townsend thinks and claims that Indiana is the best state in I the Union. Bet all you have that he will do his best every minute he acts as governor to keep it that | way. He knows business, farming teaching and laboring and is splendidly fitted to take care of the; needs of the people in a fair and impartial manner. And that's our opinion of him after the campaign i is over. The Liberty League has dwiudl-. ed dow-n to one man — Jouett Shouse—who will continue alone. Shouse is a stickler and can cause plenty of trouble. As chairman of the Democratic party a few yeaas ago he planned wisely, but he has a tough one now and can't succeed. The organization would have, folded up several weeks ago if it had not been for the campaign and the fear of the gesture indicating surrender. CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers are requested to give old and new address when ordering paper changed from one address to another. For example: If you change your address from Decatur R. R. 1 to Decatur R. R. 2, instruct us to change the paper from route one to route two. When changing address to another town, always give present address and new address.
David Lawrence favor* permltt- * mg the negroes to vote. Os conrae they have that right now with whatever regulations are provided in the various slates a* to education and tax paying. Perhaps the l i renowned Mr. Lawrence is trying to dig up an issue that will worry . the President, but he has had others more serious and seems to I have solved them fairly well. He, probably will take care of this one I if it comes to him. A lot of folks are nervous about what will happen to the gross income sales tax. once they get to fooling with it In efforts to correct some of its faults. And there are some things to worry about.
