The Indiana delegation to the inauguration ceremonies at Washington, had a great time, saw something worth while and got many thrills. The January, February, March and April showers ought to give us a crop of May flowers that would surpass any thing in history, but it may take a diver's suit to get to them. "Joe saw the train, but couldn't stop; so they dragged his flivver to a shop. It took only a week or two, to make his Lizzie good as new. But, though they hunted high and low, they found no extra parts for Joe." —Gulf Coast Lumberman. Most people really haven’t made up their minds as to the proposed Bix-year term for President of the United States. Under the present system, if he makes good he is hard to beat while on the other , hand, if he isn't filling the bill. . six years would be a long time. We have tried to understand just what the "sit-down" striker gains by thus punishing himself, but haven't been able to get it. If he isn't satisfied he could be at home resting and comfortable until the matter is adjusted. It looks asj though he really liked his job and doesn't want any one else to have it. The local Red Cross chapter has ■ received notice that the Honor I Certificate for Distinguished Roll ■ Call has been awarded them, along ■ with congratulations from Dr. Cary ■ T. Grayson, national chairman, I who adds that the gain this year I is the largest since 1920. It's a ■ fine record and congratulates the ■ officials and their assistants who ■ did such a fine job. ■ Senator Gottschalk is not in tav-,« or of increasing the gross income ■ tax exemption to two or three ■ thousand dollars, because he thinks ■ that isn't worth all the effort. He ■ does favor an exemption of SIO,OOO, I which could be done and which I would really help the small Ims- I iness man, who undoubtedly bears I too heavy a portion of this tax. I The senator is right as usual and I should win his point.

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. 1

i geles, with which J. 0. Sellemeyerj of this city, is connected, it's u drive for safer driving that the list of casualties may be reduced to j I a minimum. They are urging their own salesmen and others connect,?d with the company t<> not gsinhle 1 with fate and to start the new year by trying to make safe driving a fad. Such efforts will bring results and should be generally followed. Detroit is campaigning against tuberculosis in a modern way. That city, where it is estimated the actual cost of treating advanced eases is $1,400,000 and including losses of salaries and extra care is $4,200,000, has organized and by use of X-ray, will locate i each case of infection and cure by the "lung-rest'' treatment, which is 100% perfect. Many people have tuberculosis in a mild form and do not know it and from these the disease is spread to others. The city of Detroit expects to lead the way in this drive and hopes that other communities will follow. President Roosevelt will continue i his great fight for the under privileged, the forgotten man, his cam-| paign to pass prosperity around and his statement that the nation will go up or down together is correct. That goes likewise for a community. To really improve our conditions, we must stand shoulder to shoulder for those i things that are worth while. Unit- ; ed we can do fine and wonderful i things. Divided we become just a ' place in which to exist. There was much in the President's inaugural address that should make us think and act. His is the broad and noble position that we should, all emulate. A bill in the legislature would make it a misdemeanor for a service station operator to sell gasoline or other motor fuel to an in-, toxicated person, which is just another law to clutter up the statute | books.

that law? Who would be wise 'enough to sift out the intoxicated? That's not the way to prevent accidents or to rid the highways of drunken drivers. They are the ones to be spanked, not the service I men and certainly tills responsl-l bility should not be imposed. It's I a tough job usually even in court or with an acobol detector to prove intoxication. Those who listened to the wonderful address of President Roose- 1 velt, were, we are sure, impressed 1 with the thought, that he Is far ahead of the average statesman,, politician, official or other citizen,, in his plans and hopes and ideals.' If he is permitted to do so, he will, not only lead us out of the depths of depression, but he will provide ( for every one a better living condition in which every one who makes an effort, can be well nourished and happy. As this greatest of all leaders said, “We will carry on" and he will do his utmost to lead our feet in the right direc-, tion. His progress in four years l has been remarkable but the next !four will be even more important ' for they mark the beginning of a I new and better era with the government doing whatever is necessary to bring that about. The nation was fortunate indeed when they selected Franklin Delano, Roosevelt to be president and sol far there have been no real regrets.. We don't believe there will ever! be for he is too capable, too honest I and too thoroughly sincere to do other than the right thing for all the people. • « Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two 1.

- —— 8. 90 degrees North. 9 American inventor. 10. Donizetti. 1 Complete Ruling Os Supreme Court in Dredge Case | I Following is' th. ■ complete ruling |o£ the Indiana supreme court. In the Wabash river dredge case. The story of the decision was pub-, lished in Monday's edition of the ■ Daily Democrat: 26321. Board of commissioners et al vs. Fennig et al. Adams C. C. I Affirmed, h'ansler. J. (1) This was , a proceeding under acts 1913, p. 884. for the establishing of the Wa-; . bash river as a dredge ditch for a ' distance extending into the slates • of Indiana and Ohio, that is under • the 1913 interstate ditch law. It ' is shown that the regular judge was disqualified, that another was I selected, who did not qualify, that the term of that regular judge expired and a new regular judge assumed office, and after the new regular judge asstlmed office, the Governor issued a commission to a lawyer as special judge of the case and the appellants filed objections setting up the fact that the regular judge was not disquallified and the one appointed by the Governor was without authority, i which objections were overruled , by such appointee of the Governor,; and a trial had and decision against appellants. The appellants on appeal have assigned error in conclusion of law and attack the | appointee of the Governor as having any judicial power under the showing of the record, and havq .not brought the question up i through a motion for a new trial. "The statute authorizes the Gover- ! nor to appoint special judges in certain cases. The special judge I assumed to act under an appoint ! ment by the Governor under the I statute, and it can not be said that ihe was acting without color of ‘ authority." Appellants contend that there was a special repeal of the 1913 act by the 1933 act for drainage ditches, but it is held that the general savings clause opeiated against the special repeal to perpetuate the 1933 act for the eon struction of the ditch. The fact that the title of the 1913 act provided for distribution of costs between the counties of the two I stktes, and the body of the act provided for payment by assessment of benefits, did not make such provisions for payment by assessments invalid, as the provision in l he body of the act for assessments is a mere further limitation of the method of distribution of costs. The fact that the Ohio law found in the special findings, and the

,rovlHlous of the Indiana stat it , are each for the assessment of th , benefits by the local boards and not by the joint interstate board and that the assessments in this case were spread by the joint board and so approved by trial judge, does not show error. r° —: — ...
