Annual dues are but one dollar per year, contributing membership five dollars. sustaining membership ten dollars and supporting $25. Perhaps those gangsters who have been annoying the movie stars at Hollywood think they can get in pictures if they can pull off better stunts than the actors do. The unemployment census cards are coming in rapidly over the country, showing a genuine inter-; est in this effort to find out just how many are out of jobs and what kind of work they can do best. If unemployed or employed but part time, be sure to fill out the postal card questionnaire left at your house this week. This should be done before the 20th, according to the instructions and the request of President Roosevelt. Mrs. Roosevelt is a wonderful woman and those who heard her at the Shrine last evening recog nize in her a leadership that is inspiring and helpful. She has ability and is doing a tine work for charity as well as rendering assistance for many deserving causes. While the birth of the Red Cross dates back to 1863. the present j wonderful organization was made in 1905. Since that time it has grown and has become the most useful body of personal workers in the world. It has saved thousands of lives and relieved suffering in every country and under every condition. It deserves your wholehearted support. There is a lot of war talk these days but when you ask those who discuss it with whom we will tight and what about, they hedge by saying that something is sure to bring it about — just any thing. Most of our troubles never occur and we don’t believe there will be war in this country or with this country in a long time. The less it is discussed, the better. Messages and letters are coming in from hundreds who attended the McMillen Day celebration, declaring it the best tonic they have had in a long time and congratulating those who sponsored and worked to make It such a success. This city is receiving much favorable comment and the occasion was without doubt one of the finest ever held in this territory. The Christmas season is on your door step — that happy occasion with it’s cheer, it's good will and tts gracious giving. It's your opportunity, Mr. Merchant, to complete the year with a better business than you have ever done. Wall street may be crying and bemoaning the flurries there, but it has nothing to do with the general run of customers who come to your store or will come if you invite | them. ... .—J i Governor Townsend is not a candidate for further political honors but hopes with Mrs. Townsend to!

retire to his Grant county farm after he has concluded his term as governor. That's why he can be so fearless and honest in administering the affairs of his high position and that’s why he will makel : one of the best governors the state has had. Also that may be the . very reason that will make the people call on his services in the; future. 1 Work of tearing down the old, Central School building will start, in a short time, the latest step in that direction and looking towards the new $250,000 high school, having been taken by the letting of the contract and sale of the material to Yost Brothers. Construction work on the new structure will start in a month or six weeks it is expected or as soon as is possible after details have been taken care of. In the meantime, plans are being made to keep the children from Central in school. They will probably be housed in the high school building, either by doing a little crowding, or by a change of the hours. The school board and others interested are working rapidly and with the greatest care to do the best for the children and to assure the newbuilding during the next year. I’ will be one of the finest improvements made in Decatur in years and will be appreciated by the students and the public. BUSINESS EXPANDS: The effort to produce a “Roose-, velt depression'' by his enemies in Wall street was short lived. For honest business knows that the New Deal is not an enemy to bus-i iness. but its savior. Even M the zloomy tab s Os the t stock market tried to spread its 1 fear, and its dismay, great Indus- , tries were building and planning for more factories to produce the goods which the nation needs Ex- ’ pansion of a factory is not a matter , of rapid decision. The plans must : be made for months. The needs must be carefully examined. The right place and the right size are, important. 1 Within the past month, Indiana has received word that more new , industries are coming to this state. They are coming because they < have faith in the sound government , of the state. They are coming be- i cause of the purchasing power of, 1 its citizens as a whole. It was no accident that within the week. Indianapolis received a j | new factory which will give em- ’ ployment to 2,000 more of its peo- ( pie. It was not chance that led t that firm to select Indiana. It was not speculation, but investment. < which prompted their decision. Other cities of the state, in pro- I portion to their natural advantages ( and facilities, have also prospered. Great industries do not expand in the face of national disaster. They do not invest new money when depression is in the offing. They do not build in a state which does not offer a fair taxing system, a stable government, a friendly relationship between the employer and the worker. The state has much to thank Governor Towpsend for, if but for nothing more than the response which industry is giving to his labor department, the law which was based upon the belief that it is better to settle disputes before they arise and stop quarrels before they become bitter. Indiana measures to profits in new factories, new industries, more work for the unemployed. ♦ ♦ I Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two 1.

speakers to carry on the anti-lynch-ing bill filibuster until the farm ' bill is ready for debate. The farm measure will take precedence. Borah Interreupted Bailey's discussion of the constitutional asI>ects of the anti-lynching bill to ask. ‘ If we were to repeal the undivided profits tax and put the burden on > the people who have no profits (through a sales tax would the Senator still favor repeal as he advoi rated yesterday.” Borah explained that he was referring to a statement by Harrison that he knew of only two ways to provide substitute revenue—Broaden the income tax base or a manufacturers sales tax. ■ I favor repeal or drastic change 1 under any circumstances," Hailey ' replied. "Even if I were sure that I had to accept one or the other, I would accept it rather than continue the present system of penalizing corporations for paying their debts. Broadening of the tax base is the most logica' method. A sales tax is i the last resort of a bankrupt coun- , try.’’ o E’mer Koenemann of Fort Wayne I visited in Decatur Wednesday evening.

SCHOOL STRIKE IS DEADLOCKED Rising Sun High School Students Continue On Strike — Rising Sun. Ind., Nov. 18 (U.RF Petitions demanding the removal of two school board members and several teachers were circulated today by the 71 striking students of Rising Sun high school. The strike, which started Tuesday and reached a climax yesterday when a deputy sheriff fired at a carload of students, apparenti ly was at an impasse today School officials refused to permit any of the strikers to return to classes unless they were accompanied by their parents.
