The Russian flyers might book, trips over the North Pole during the hot weather season, but at that we prefer the warmth of old Indiana. In 1900 we were not bothered with a traffic problem. There was ; only one automobile in the county! and we had practically as many roads and streets as we have today, over which pass thousands of cars every day. President Roosevelt complimented Governor Townsend on the wayi he handled the strike situation in ' Indiana. “You have patience and I that's what the settlement of big problems requires," the President; told him. Townsend doesn't have 1 his rural background and sturdy | Hoosier way for nothing. The city budget will be higher than a year ago. the need for pay increases to firemen and policemen, upkeep of streets and maintainance of parks, being among those items which demand more, money. It is not known what the | tentative rate will figure, final figures not being available. The murderer of Arlie Foster, Fort Wayne restaurant proprietor, has been apprehended in Los Angeles, ending a two year search for the killer.

i — i promises to be not only a delightj ful vacation period for the memI bers. but it will be interesting as i well. Polities will warm up about that time and names of prospec- ' live candidates for state offices and the probability of a candidate for United States senator will be among the questions which the men and women will discuss. A priest returning from Eskimo ' land advises that missionaries should not mention hell to the I Eskimos, for the natives have the idea that is the place they want to go because they’ve been told it's “warmer” there. The Eskimos I are tired of the extreme cold and 1 hauling wood and are apparently willing to go anyplace where the climate is warmer, even hot —as the dickens. Senator Barkley of Kentucky is slated to succeed Senator Robinson as majority leader in the senate. He has been in Congress for 22 years, ten years of which have ; been served in the Senate. He 1 has fought for the President's program and although he doesn't have ' the driving power of the man whom he succeeds, is well trained for the important post and will! serve to the credit of the party. The Lions club of this city played host to delegates from 21 northern Indiana clubs at a district j meeting here the other evening.| Herbert C.

The city enjoys having visit- ■ ors and always has the latchstring hanging out to those who wish to i avail themselves of its hospitality.' Even though we all sympathize j with King George VI over his im-j pediment in speech, his royal high-1 ness might consider it a blessing. He has decided not to make public speeches because of his stammering and has taken to writing his messages. In this country we can't imagine a high public official! doing that, when called on for a i reply to a reception or in extend- ■ ing words of greetings, but in Eng- j land the king doesn't have much j to say anyway. His impediment'; may keep him from getting into a i lot of trouble. His brother talked a himself otf the throne. I

t BELOVED JOE ROBINSON: I Editorial writers will find it dis- ; ficult to pay a more glowing trib--1 ute to the life and virtues of Senr ator Joe Robinson than that voic- , ed in behalf of the Nation by i President Roosevelt. To quote the President, “A pillar of strength is . gone. A soldier has fallen with i' face to the battle. In his going, Joe Robinson has left a record in high achievement as it was faithful in performance. He never I temporized with principle nor bargained where the public interest j was the issue.” Senator Robinson was a patriot and a statesman. His devotion to party and chief was as sincere as ’ a mother's to her child. He loomI ed big on the political stage and had a following as great as any man in public life, excepting the president. He was loved and ad- - mired. He was a great American, j sturdy, honest and loyal. He was . a rugged individual, Christian in I outlook, sublime in performance. The Nation loses one of its I ablest and most sincere leaders . and his death leaves vacant a place which no one will fill as well and courageously as he did. His death was all too sudden, i but he died as he would have liked, |in the service of his country. He j leaves a great record for coming l generations to look back to when they wish to follow in the footsteps of noble men. o—- * TWENTY YEARS * AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File July 16, 1917. — The people of ■ Germany are sick of war and are . demanding peace negotiations.
