New fall merchandise is on display and you can fill your wants in any line or article needed. They're after Al Brady and his gang and no doubt the criminals ( will be run down by state and fed-j eral officers. The quicker they are disposed of the better the country will like it. Several more new houses are being planned for Decatur and construction of them is expected to get underway in the near future. We can use more houses for more people wish to make this city their home. Watch for the 20 and 30 SPEED LIMIT signs in the residential and business districts.

Decatur’s total rate for next year will not exceed $2.50 on the SIOO. Os this total only 40 cents is levied by the civil city. The rate is one of the lowest enjoyei here in many years and proof that public affsir" have been well administered. Improvements at the Adams County Memorial Hospital are planned for next year, appropriations being made for building and equipment. A good and efficient hospital is a wonderful asset in any community and the people of Adams county are proud of the local institution.

Few towns in the state have | a lower electric rate than five cents ' a kilowatt, that being the top ! schedule in the city's rate struc-, ture. The industrial rate is one of I the lowest in the state and there ! is evidence in the local plants that they appreciate it and are willing I to expand in those cities that offer ' low electric rates. SOYBEAN'S IMPORTANCE: The increased planting of soybeans and the growing commercial uses to which the product has been put have raised it to a position of national importance. Farmers are devoting additional acreage to the crop, while scientists have found many profitable outlets for the soybean oil, which figures prominently . in numerous industrial enterprises. Keller E. Beeson of Purdue Uni I versity is an officer of the American I Soybean Association, which has an exhibit at the state fair. Housed in a special railway coach, the exhibit is sponsored by the national organization In co-operation with the United States Department of Agriculture and state agricultural j colleges. The soybean has a remarkable background in addition to the peculiar status of novel use both to farm and industry. It was grown for centuries in the Orient under primitive methods. The bean now is raised in most sections of the * United States. Besides the acre- i , age harvested for hay, the national . production has reached 45.000,000 bushels of the beans. Commercial processes absorb 85 per cent of the i yield. I Feed manufacturers, food pro- ■ cessors, paint producers and foundries use the bulk of the crop. The automobile industry accounts for a~ considerable part of the soybean ; supply in the manufacture of accessories. Soybean oil is used in core sand at foundries. Paint and varnish makers purchase a major > portion of the beans. Few vegetable products can equal the variety of uses for which the soybean is adaptable.—lndianapolis Star. ——' o — ♦ * Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE + — 9 Q.

Third term opponents, however, held that the tradition should not be violated no matter what their feeling toward the chief executive and the new deal. Governor Murphy declared that the “general welfare of the people may demand President Roosevelt , for re-election in 1940.” "We are going through a critical period.” Murphy declared, ‘‘and, government, as it is today in the

"The third term tradition must be subordinated to the need of the nation. The situation is such that ( it is not a question of party. Government in this country must not, go backward." In regard to his own possible candidacy, Murphy stated that “it is too early to predict or suggest who might lead a new party movement. I have said before that there is no reason why I should be 1 a candidate.” Earle has been on record for a 1 Roosevelt third term for several months. His most recent expression, made while visiting abroad, was that "President Roosevelt is! undoubtedly the greatest American today. There is no one in the.

MANY FAIL TO | FILE RETURNS Internal Revenue (olleftor Reports Employers Liable ludiauapolia, Sept. 10 -Collector lof internal revenue Will H Smi i today revealed that a check-up 11 Adams county indicated that man) | employers liable for the taxes tin ' posed under Title VHI of the so dal security act are not filing re ’ | turns and paying the tax. "Apparently many feel that unless they employ eight or more they are not liable.' Mr. Smith said "This is not true. The Title VHI tax is due from every taxable employer and from his employee. It is due and payable monthly. The employer deducts one per cent of the employee's wages and adds another one per cent as his own share of the tax.’’ Title VHI of the social security act. approved August 14. 1935. imposes an excise tax upon all employers (irrespective of the number of individuals they employ) and an income tax upon their employee* measured by the amount of wages paid on and after January 1, 1937, with respect to employment an and after that date The rate of each tax for the year 193,. 1938 and 1939 is one per cent of • the wages paid. The law provides that the employer shall collect the j employee's tax by deducting the amount of such tax from the wages !as and when paid. Every employ- ! er who. during any calendar month I beginning after December 31. 1936. employs one or more individuals in a business not specifically exempt from the tax. is required to make a return on form SS-1. The basis of pay and period of time worked are immaterial. Therefore, temporary or occasional employes are liable for tax just the same as permanently employed individuals. I This tax must be reported monthly I and the returns for one month must i be filed not later than the end of , the following month. Collector Smith further stated that drastic penalties, ranging from 5 per cent to 25 per cent of the tax due, are to be assessed against employers who willfully neglect to i to pay this tax monthly, and pointed out that when an employer I makes a deduction from the employee's taxable wages under the provisions of title VIII. he becomes Linked With Gable r Mb * . . . jEBx ’ ■ Della Carroll Although previously denied, rumors of a romance between Clark Gable and Della Carroll, exotic dancer, were revived when the stunning brunet arnved in London for a European engagement. lEQUITY BACK TO SCHOOL SPECIAL • MILK SHAKE and CHEESE SANDWICH 15c —
