Your state gross income tax report for the third quarter is due and must be in the mails by the 15th. Better get it over with and rest easy. Gross income taxes in Indiana for the second quarter of the year showed a gain of 19% over the same period last year. That’s a good sign. The Democrats show a five per cent gain in registrations over last year. Indicating that in that rookribbed Republican sector, the NewDeal is still quite popular. Start planning and saving for the next world fair. It will be held in New York City in 1939 atfll according to the early news stories, will be the greatest ever held any where any time. Justice Black eviderflly realizes that a twenty-thousand-dollar a year job for life is something worth holding on to and he doesn’t propose to be •’hoodwinked” out of it it he can help it. Hunting season is here and it may be well to call attention of those who enjoy this sport of the need to be careful. Handling firearms is always dangerous and usually those who become careless about it, meet with serious accidents. The cooking school is attracting large crowds and you should be there tomorrow if you have overlooked it up to now. The ladles declare it a real treat and it's just a little token of good will to the ladies of the community from the Daily Democrat. Lowden, Landon and Hoover held a secret conference in Oregon, Illinois. Sunday and agreed to whatever they were discussing. So far, they haven’t taken the public into confidence yet and strange as it may seem the public doesn’t care a so-and-so whether they do or not. This is the season when the marchant who advertises derives quickest and best returns. There are so many articles needed for fall and winter, to prepare the family and the home and to keep it going. Don't see how little space you can use but try letting out a little on your appropriation. It will pay. President Roosevelt continues his fight to balance the human budget, more important in the life of a democracy than any thing else and he will win for right always eventually comes through. We may not realize it but this nation is going through a test that will either make a genuine and great nation or just another monarchy. We have faith in the president. A lot of upsets in football came I Saturday. Ohio took Purdue and : Nebraska defeated the famous i Minnesota eleven, Cornell gave Col- i gate a 40 to 7 trimming and Notre ’ Dame walloped the much touted i Drake team, considered second best 1 in the United States last year. The , i
I season is on and each Saturday from now until Thanksgiving will bring exciting and colorful gridi iron battles. The duke and duchess of Windsor are coming to America for a visit. Hope they like it and believe they will for they remind us more 'of Americans than English. They will study condition among the working classes, perhaps with the idea in mind that if they get the opportunity they would like to Im prove conditions in old England and want to know what they are talking about. The supreme court made short work of any public ceremony in connection with the seating of Justice Black, in fact they apparently , didn't notice any thing going on. Behind closed doors they did whatever consulting they felt was necessary and then they walked out, Mr. Black with the rest, and took their seats. That's all, evidently, so far as they are concerned. Grease up the radio and get ready to sit in tomorrow on the first of the world series games. The Yanks and the Giants will again go to bat, with the odds favoring the American league boys. However, the Giants have been going strong the last month and what the fans call "hot.” That means they will fight hard and many figure they have a very good chance to take their old opponents. You will enjoy it and it's fine relax- > ation, so get in and play the game j 1 with these experts. -- - — Long before two o’clock yesterday afternoon, it was apparent that the Daily Democrat’s cooking school was a success if judged by the interest of the ladies. It was a full house and it is hoped that each of the three sessions will be likewise. Comments we heard were favorable and we are sure the effort to entertain the ladies I in a manner profitable and helpful to them was appreciated. That’s all we are asking for and we promise to repeat the school frequently in the future if that's the general verdict. Early signs point to some hot election contests in Indiana next year. Besides the selection of candidates for United States senator ' and a number of state offices, the ( municipal contests will attract • much attention. In Huntington the 1 fight has started already with . ' Clarence F. Juillerat, who was ( mayor from 1922 to 1926, a candidate for that office as a Democrat apd Foster Cutshall who was defeated for the nomination by C. W. H. Bangs in 1934, has tossed his hat in the ring as a Republican. It ought to be good and a year from now may be detracting somewhat from the world series. While adult farmers are struggling with the problems of production and marketing, a splendid new "crop” of farmers of the future is growing up. More than a million farm boys and girls are now enrolled in the 4-H clubs. Here they are learning practical lessons in successful agriculture. On a not distant tomorrow, they' will be operating the nation’s farms, organizing and running the nation’s farm marketing cooperatives and working out the problems of the day. The fact that organization of farm youth has now reached its highest point in histoy, augers well for the agricultural future. The training and information these young farmers receive in their 4-H club and elsewhere will prove invaluable.

The Lanier Menvvfal, located at ' Madison on the Ohio River, has become known as "a permanent example of a notable Indiana home,” among the thousands who visit it in increasing numbers year after year. Outside of being a classic example of pre-Civil war architecture, the Lanier Mansion has a particular interest to Hoosiers, ibecause it was the home of a man whc. played an I outstanding role in the history of I the state—James F. D. Lanier. Lanier, a lawyer and financier, twice ' placed his personal fortune at the disposal of the state in times of I stress.

UNIFORM CHIME FIGHT SOUGHT “Uniform’* Crime Program Is Sought By 37 States Os Union Indianapolis. tX-t. 6. — (U.R) - j ganiza'.ion of an Indiana division j of criminal statlatics to co-operate ( j with proposed divisions in 36 other states in a "uniform" crime pm-, gram, will be proposed at the next session of the Indiana general assembly. Omer Stokes Jackson, atJ torney general, announced today. The measure, and at least two ■other "uniform acts” to be placed, before the 1939 general assembly, were drawn up by the national conference of commissioners on ' uuiform alate laws, meeting last; i week in Kansas City. Mo. The criminal statistics division would operate as part of the state < police department and would expand the department's present bureau of criminal identification and investigation. The work would be made to conform with activities; of similar proposed bureaus in at least 36 other states. Under the proposed law the di- 1 rector of the division would be given wide power "for the purpose iof obtaining information which j may lead to the identification of criminals.” The director or his deputies would be authorized to photograph and fingerprint anyl person held In jail or state penal institution. The law would require the director to publish regular reports "reflecting the crime situation in the state, the operation of public agenj cies engaged in she administration !■ : ■ ,M A ONE rCkZsOAP WOMAN WjFsiNCE I LEARNED LIFEBUOY FOR BATH ANO COMPLEXION AT THAT FREE MOTION PICTURE COOKIuG SCHOOL < Don't tniss the tnovie The Bride Wakes Up” You'll learn a lot at that swell Motion Picture Cooking School...

of criminal justice, and in the con duct of the punishment or treatment of criminals." Two other “uniform" acts drawn at the national conference to be presented to the 1939 legislature I include a measure fixing methods ' of using expert witnesses In court ' trials and a bill setting up uniform laws to govern activities of trits--1 tecs of estates held in trust for beneficiaries. Under the proposed measure concerning expert witnesses, the trial judge would appoint the expertsnot more than three on any one issue —at the request of the defense or prosecution. The experts' salary would be fixed by the judge.; Under present Indiana court practice an expert witness is provided by either side in a trial just as any other witness. Purpose of the uniform trustees law is to simplify the directing of estates which include property in more than one state. Indiana delegates attending the uational conference included A.
