The , nia y° r ««I<l h« understood the school city would be out of debt after 1838, the last of the bonds being paid at that time. Under the law a school unit can bond .itself tor two per cent of its assess«d valuation. This would give it ample credit, the mayor estimated. The city of Decatur does not owe a penny of bonded indebtedness. (“Wire is outstanding against the ,t tty light and power plant, $15,0001 lof a $50,000 bond issue.

year from earnings. No tax levy! Is made for the bonds. If a elmliar plan could be continued, the city s share could be paid readily. Cooperation of Citizens Last New Year's day the mayor sought the cooperation of the citi- 1 sens in the staging of a Centennial celebration. The citizens accepted the responsibility with the result that tens of thousands of visitors and former residents came to see Decatur celebrate its 100th birthday. Mayor Holthouse believes Deca-1 I tur must endeavor to make at least I i one such progressive move a year. l 'The proposal for 1937, he believesl , will provide the children with better school facilities and inspire them towards a better way of liv-j | Ing. It will serve as a meeting' i place for the citizens, and permit the more correct use of the words 1 “Decatur, the convention city.” Mayor Holthouse thanked and congratulated the citizens on the successful completion of their 1936 i task. He suggested the combined school-community building for consideration as the 1937 project, confident that should it be acceptable by the citizens, it would obtain the same wholehearted support given the Centennial celebration. —o FARMERS WILL .(CONTINUED FROM PAQB ONB) conservation crops, such as alfalfa. Os the 270 acres normally in soildepleting crops he may remove 15 per cent, or 40.5 acres. If he placed these in soil-conserving crops he would get $9 an acre, or $364.50.1 He would receive an additional $1 an acre on the 40.5 acres plus the 30 normal soil-conserving acres for practice allowance, or improvements such as terracing, liming or seeding in soil building legumes, or $70.50. Hie total payment then would be $435. An lowa corn farmer with 100 acres, which is average there, has 70 acres in soil depleting crops and 30 acres normally in soil conserving crops.

Indi- , I ana retailers specifically have opposed the sectioh of the act which . i assesses a one per cent tax regardless of whether the business . shows a gain or loss during a year's , period. i Property owners were to offer a I suggestion that transactions in , | capital investments be relieved of : the tax. Under this heading, the ; sale of real estate would be exempt from the tax, but rentals from property would be subject to the levy. Townsend has opposed vigorously suggestions of a Shies tax, and has announced he would veto such a measure if it was passed by the legislature. The department of financial institutions has suggested that state banks be exempt from the gross income tax to relieve a competitive situation between the state and federal institutions, the latter being exempt from the state levy. EDWARD VIII 1 .(CONTINCED.FKOM PAGM ONB) the stocky country squire, the very , epitome of conservative England. ’ said: "A message from his majesty the king, sir, signed by his majesty's own hand.’’ The silence was uncanny, painful. The throng which filled the small, gloomy chamber where centuries of history has been made, seemed to have suspended animation. There was not even the sound of loud breathing. Reacts Message ; The speaker read the king's message. The emotions of the assembly I can only be imagined when he I came to the eolemn words :j “I, Edward VIII of Great Britain, Ireland, the British dominions beyond the seas, king emperor of India, do hereby declare my irrevoci able determination to renounce the throne for myself and my descend- ’ ants.” And then: > “I am most anxious that there should be no delay • ♦ • that all 1 necessary steps should be taken immediately to secure that my lawful successor, my brother, his royal highness the Duke of Y’ork, should ascend the throne, (Signed) “Edward R. I. Only once more, in all probability, 1 will he write that signature, Edward, king and emperor. That will be when he signs the act of abdication which will be enacted immediately by the house of commons and the house of lords. I The moment that his pen leaves the paper, while the ink is still wet, he ceases to rule and at that instant, the Duke of York is king. The king signed the fateful [abdication papers this morning at I Fort Belvedere, his country residence, in the presence of his broth- ! ers. At that moment, the flag of the Duchy of Cornwall was dipped over the castle. Then it was raised again to the masthead. Edward, for a few pitiful hours, is still king and Duke ; of Cornwall. It is possible that, with the con-I

sent of the new king and parlla-j meat, he will retain the duchy and i Its revenues. With his other resources, lie thus will go Into exile with an annual income of perhaps , about $500,000. There is little likelihood that the king, once he leaves England, will ever again set foot on British empire soil. After his final farewell to his sorrowing mother, Queen Mary, he may never see her again. Neither is he likely to see his sister Mary, the princess royal, nor his successor. It is possible that his favorite “kid brother,” the Duke of Kent, or the other brother, the Duke of Gloucester, would j visit him in exile and maintain a semblance of family ties. In the house today, Baldwin revealed the historic events of the last month leading up to the decision to abdicate — events which have kept the world in Unprecedented suspense. Baldwin disclosed that the king first announced his detennlntalon to marry Mrs. Simpson in a conversation at Fort Belvedere on November 16. “The king said he wanted to tell me something he had long wanted to tell me,” Baldwin said. '“I am going to marry Mrs. Simp-1 son and lam prepared to go.’ ” ' o NEW PROPOSAL -LQQNTJNUED FROM PAGE ONB) ! duction.” John G. Paine, chairman of the: council’s management group, warned the council that “we must of necessity look to government for [a regulatory program which will ! correct the economic abuses brought into being by . . . techno-1 ! logical developments. Paine urged that new legislation 1 controlling industry “come within the four walls of the constitution” but said if a constitutional amendment becomes “necessary, let us face this contingency fearlessly

ii.it let us always gravely hesl-i | late.” Edward A. Fllene, Boston businessman, backed Paine’s proposal., "I don’t know whether such a course would be constitutional or not,” he said. “It doesn't make any difference; for the people of the United States can amend the' constitution, and they surely will amend it, if it keeps them from doing something which they all want to do. And practically all of us—employers and employees—now want wages to be much higher than they are.” John Dickinson, assistant U. 8. attorney general, warned enforcement of present anti-trust laws was ineffective, “Either the machinery . . . must be expanded, or some other and different machinery for the accomplishment of the purpose of those laws must be devised,” he said. 4 |j o— i Trade In a Good Town — Decatur HELP 15 MILES OF KIDNEY TUBES’ To Flush out Acid, and Other Poisonoua Waite I t Doctors say your kidneys contain 15 Miles of tiny tubes or niters which help to purify the blood and keep you healthy.
