HOWDY FOLKS AND WELCOME: Decatur and Adams County extends to Governor M. Clifford Townsend and the other distinguished visitors, a welcome that comes from the heart. We like your style and we want you to know that we are , for you. There is no politics in today s meetings, no axes to grind, nothing but an effort to build good will and a continued community spirit that we feel is unexcelled any where. We like you and we love this community. We hope you get better acquainted with each other and that our interests will continue to be mutually satisfactory. You will find no better farms or farmers any where in Indiana, you will find no ; better citizens than those in this city and county. We feel that we i are on the threshold of a growth that will attract attention far and ' wide, a growth built upon years of living uuder the Golden Rule. We will try to explain that to our guests today and this evening. The event is the annual dinner to the Decatur Chamber of Commerce, with similar organizations from Geneva, Berne and other parts of the county joining. These forward looking associations are compos I ed of men and women who have faith in the future, are willing to sacrifice of their time and energy for the common good of all the people and who are grateful to all of those who are here today to join in extending the welcome to the Chief Executive, to Mr. Peters of the FHA, to Mr. McMurray, to Mr. Crawford, to Max Townsend, Dick Heller and the other guests. We will of course try to show you why we feel this county and city is entitled to full recognition as au important part of Indiana and we sincerely hope you like us. State officials we are sure, forgot the worries of their offices as I they mingled with our people in an old-fashioned community meeting. We realize how difficult it is for them to leave their desks and every one here appreciates the effort it has been. If we can convince you of our earnest support in all things that are right and for the general good, we will feel the day has been more than worth while. There may be ten million men out of work as it is claimed but we are proud of the fact that very few of that number are in Adams county. Business will cease in Decatur from 12 o’clock, noon, to three, on ' the afternoon of the 26th, the occasion being Good Friday. Divine services will be held in the various churches and people in general will i observe the day which commemorates the passion and death of Christ. It is a custom now universally accepted by the civilized world. Governor Townsend has reappointed Adjutant-General Straub, Frank Finney as automobile commissioner, and Edward Brennan as director of the budget. All three have made excellent records and will continue to operate these important places in the manner which will provide the best service for the people of Indiana. Rear Admiral Richard P. Hobson, famous for his courage in volun- ' teering to sink the collier Merrimac in the entrance to Santiago harbor in the Spanish-American war, died suddenly as he was leaving his New York apartment. His career has been colorful and he has been for nearly forty years one of America s heroes. Floyd I. McMurray, state superintendent of public instructions, who 1 is our guest today, is one of the outstanding men of the state. Educated, a traveler and a writer of distinction, he is weil And favorably known. As the head of the schools in Indiana the past three years, he has made an excellent record and he stands high in educational circles. < He began his new term last Monday and we are very glad to have this j opportunity to congratulate him and to wish continued success. i t Hon. Earl Crawford, state highway commission chairman, is in- 1 creasing his acquaintance here today and receiving a sincere welcome as he always has in Adams County. He knows the highway situation in the state for he has been interested in it ever since we had a state ' commission and we know he will treat Adams County fairly in all matters pertaining to his important office. He has been one of our busiest visitors and we hope he returns often for we like his cordial handshake and his devotion to all things which tend to better conditions. Among Decatur's honored visitors today is R. Earl Peters, former • resident here and w hose early experience was gained as a reporter for I this paper. He is self made, working his way through college, studying law as he continued as a newspaper man and secretary to Congress- 1 man Cline. Opening a law office in Fort Wayne he succeeded from the start, built up a splendid praictise, became interested in politics and served four years as Democratic state chairman. To his efforts was due largely the rehabilitation of the party so that it was ready for victories since won under him and his successors. He is now the ' director of the FHA for Indiana and under his supervision that department has made a record unexcelled in the nation. Decatur is proud to l extend a sincere wlcome to so disinguished a son. Amelia Earhart, God bless her and keep her safe, is out over the Pacific Ocean on her trip around the world, first effort of the kind ever ! attempted by a woman. She is a fearless, splendid and capable aviatrix and the world is pulling for her to establish a record that will help show the way. The cloudy skies did not effect the stout hearts of the leaders of the ! Decatur Chamber of Commerce who are proud of today's opportunity to show this community to the various department heads of Indiana i and to our distinguished governor. The banquet at 6:30 o’clock this ( evening should be the culmination of a happy day which will be long remembered by those participating. The first election on the proposed Supreme Court changes was held I in Randolph County, Georgia, and resulted five to one in favor of the changes as suggested by President Roosevelt. Perhaps .those who clamor so’ loudly for an amendment or for any thing else that will embarrass the administration will be surprised at such a result. The results should by the same token encourage those who have faith in the program of going forward the next few years. f Your especial attention is called today to the display announcements of numerous industries and merchants. They are an important | part of the community and it is line that they enter into today's event with the enthusiasm that promises continued growth and prosperity. Read their messages carefully. They are worth while.

At 11 «• m.. by arrangement, bus. subway and taxicab workers went back to their jolts so that they 1 could get all strikers to places of employment by noon, the official hour for the end of the demonstration. t The only complication was that just at noon case waiters walked ■ out. Th' ir strike was one of two ■ hours, covering most of the luncheon period, and as the result the big cases like most shops closed in precaution during the morning—could not open. Proprietors of | small cases tried to serve patrons themselves. Union and government officials ; reported the strike 100 per cent effective. Directly Involved were taxicab men. subway and bus crews, metal workers and employes at the exposition grounds. The postal services and essential services such as gas. water, and electricity were maintained. Because of the smoothness with which the strike was conducted,
