June may be remembered because of heavy rains, but it also brought many pleasant days and we enjoyed them more than the hot stuff a year ago. Don't throw firecrackers across the street or at another person. It's dangerous to do and you might cause serious injury to some one. Be sane and sensible about using firecrackers and you'll have a happy Fourth. President Roosevelt just laughed when querried about a third term. It s almost a safe bet that Mr. Roosevelt will not seek a third term and that, he'll look forward to the day when a rest from the cares of the office conies in 1940. Repairs are being made to all the streets in town, property owners are remodeling and redecorating their houses, the lawns are in fine shape, which just leaves one more duty to do in the good housekeeping program — cut the' • weeds.

We still have time to whoop it up for the big week and with a little enthusiasm a great program can be built. “Hub'’ Schmitt vouches that the livestock show will be one of the greatest ever and if all the committees work together. Decatur's fair will be another successful community ven- I ture. Let's do it in Decatur style. California has another fiendish murder, three little girls being assaulted and murdered by a degenerate. if we recall it was In that state where a mob broke into . jail and took a prisoner charged with a Yt'sser degree of murder and it would not be surprising if such a fate awaits the demon who killed the little girls. That isn't the ' way to deal out justice, but the job would be to reason with a crowd bent on avenging the murders. Governor Townsend is determined not to make conditions in the Calumet district more alarming by sending troops to East Chicago. He has worked out a plan of peace and partial agreement has already been given by the mill operators. Approval from the Lewis organ- , ization is awaited and if both sides i come to an agreement the trouble will be settled without bloodshed. The country cannot afford a revolution and that's what some of these controversies amount to in other parts of the country. We must settle our troubles and get to work. The state government enters the fiscal year today with a bal anced budget and a surplus in the treasury, Governor Townsend has announced. Early reports from counties indicates that tax collections are improved over last year. The balanced budget has been made possible without any addi--1 tional taxes, due to the planned I fiscal program of the state admin-1 istration. While many other states J had to levy additional taxes to 'i pay for social security appropri : ! ations. this was not necessary in i Indiana. 0 Answers To Test Questions | Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two ♦ -- * I 1.

i PLAN PENSIONS FOR POLICEMEN Department Indianapolis, July t (U-R) l ’ 1 ’' 1 M. Clifford Townsend toay nouneed creation of a flexiblt I ' sion program for the state ■ pol>< ■ department covering ” ■ death, disability and depend, u benefits. , ~., Full security protection for police officers, whose work fe often very hazardous, is piovhl under the pension plan. 'I owns, said. . r,. Under the program the hrn_ are financed jointly by , wage deductions of apprextmao .' 6 percent and additional state e ( proprtations, the governor repoit , ed. Retirement benefits, totaling about half the average month.) . I salary, are payable at the age " < ;55 or after 20 years service. j an officer Is disabled in line of , | duty, his benefit begins at the tini' !of disability. If an officer suffers , 'a disabling accident while not ! duty, the benefit is limited to Hr j time he has been employed by th ' department. The flexible program permits re tireinent earlier or later than th normal retirement age, according to Townsend. By taking a reduced retirement income, the menib ers of the state police department mmay receive benefits during bis lifetime or that of his wife. Most civilians, military units and municipal police and fire departments are protected under the social security program but heretofore no such service has been available to state police officers, the governor said. Pension payments will be made to the dependent widow, children or parents of a state policeman who dies in line of duty in addition to the proceeds of his group insurance, which are payable in event of death from any cause. The mortality hazard is reinsured through a group insurance con tract with an old line legal reserv. life insurance company. Disability and dependent benefits are paid from the police benefit fund which . maintain a contingency reserve j and au adequate margin of surplus j by appropriations.
