Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. Don't get excited over the reports from Washington about the McNutt reception. It was a great event, designed only as an honor to a great Hoosier, who may be a candidate for President in 1940. if his friends prevail. Absent voter's application blanks for the May primary may now be obtained at the county clerk's office and it will be well not to wait too long as the 'applicant must have two free holders sign up from his precinct and the transactions require a little time. Candidates are getting busy and so far it i has been a very pleasant, quiet and interesting contest, but as it grows nearer to primary day, | this interest may increase. Keep cool, smile and be a good winner or loser as the case may be. That's best for you and the party and every one else. The excavation work for the new school building has started and iq a couple of weeks the construction will begin. The contractors and sub contractors will hurry the work along as rapidly as possible and every effort will be made to have the handsome new high school building ready for occupancy next fall. Receipts for your spring taxes will Im? ready at the county treas-1 urer's office next week, it has been announced by Jeff Liechty, county treasurer and it will be wise to get in early. That makes it much easier than waiting for the final rush when you have to stand in line and wait until your turn comes. The 3250.000,000 relief measure passed the United Stater senate by a vote of 67 to 1. indicating almost unanimous agreement on this action, which may be good to remember when the spell-bfnders ini the campaign start to telling you that it’s the Democrats alone who spend the money. These problems must be met and even if it costs something, we must 'carry on., Democrat or Republican. The one senator to vote against the bill was Bailey of North Carolina. Paul V. McNutt is not seeking any office, he declares. He is anxious to give a good account of the important job he now holds as high commissioner to the Philippine Islands, The reception for him in Washington was a splendid demonstration of the high regard in which he is held, not only by Hoosiers but by others. When the time comes his Indiana admirers will no doubt present his candidacy and will get behind him strong that he may be honored as the candidate of his party. Prank G. Thompson, well known Bluffton newspaper man, representative from Adams and Wells county in the legislature, Democratic leader of the majority lit the last session and well known through-

lout the state, ha* announced as a ' ■ candidate for auditor of state. The announcement is pleasing to his friends and to the citiiena of the , state in general for he is u spleni did official always. As mayor of , Bluffton and us a member of the j General Assembly he made good 1 1 records. He is of excellent char- » j actor, is able, industrious, has 1 personality and a host of friends , who will be glad to support him t jland happy to have him in charge ) I of such an Important office. I We are sorry that Senator Van- ) Nuys is disappointed, that he was ! ) not praised or commended by the I resolutions committee of the Edi-. torial Association and that he felt he was "snubbed and insulted.", The fact that only two days before , he had sent out his "Independent committee of 100,000" letters and cards asking support, not in thF convention or primaries but in the November election made it impossible to commend him. The resolutions were adopted by a 1 I unanimous vote, one editor only, refusing to vote. There was no in-i tention to snub or insult any one and while the senior senator has many warm friends in Indiana, they do not agree with his policy | to run as an independent candidate or to continually quarrel with ! three successive organizations in the state. Few persons have a clear knowledge of how their tax dollar is 1 spent. Os every 3100 spent by Che | national government 317.82 is spent . | for work relief, $12.91 for national defense, $12.51 for interest on public debt and $8.89 for social security. These four items account for more than half the total expenditures of the federal government. The other half is divided up in a wide variety of activities, includ- | ing $7.73 for veterans' pensions. 1 ' $5.97 for AAA.. $4.18 for CCC.. I $3.78 for public highways. $2.55 for grants to public bodies. $2.12 for treasury department, $2.03 for Independent offices, $2.02 for agricultural department. $1.71 for direct relief. $1.65 for department of interior. $1.09 for rivers and harbors, and $1 for public buildings These are figures every citizen should know. Harry Miesse, executive secre-, tary of the Indiana Taxpayers' As sociation. urges taxpayers to be- . come familiar with th.Mr rights and make some effort to protect j their interests by asserting themselves against unauthorized expenditure of their money by public officials. The Miesse appeal is made in connection with an explanation of the tax limitation law. which, aniang other things, holds expenditures to the items proposed in the budget as finally adopt- 1 , I ed. In Indiana it is illegal to < spend money without first appropriating it. and it is equally illegal ' to exceed budgets. Among other said: “I was surprised to hear that <;ae Indiana prose-‘ | cuting attorney said he would not attempt to enforce the budget law because it would make him un-' popular. It is my conviction that any official who tries to protect the interests of the people generally ' will grow in popularity. But that, 1 is beside the question. -Enforce-1 i incut of the budget law does not depend wholly upon the prosecut ing attorney. What I have tried 1 to point out is that the budget law ' has teeth in it and provides 'the means for the taxpayer to use it. The continued flouting of this law. the continued force of declaring an extraordinary emergency when , none exists, can be stopped 11 throughout Indiana if the taxpay-: erg, whose money is involved, will I use the power the legislature gave 1 them." Newcastle Courier-Times. I o California Gift to Texas Berkeley, Cal. (U.R) As the re-j suit of many courtesies that have i been extended to the University of . California by the University of i Texas the former lias presented to the lai ter a perfect skeleton of the ; saber-tooth tiger, credited with being the fiercest of all animals ; The specimen was found in the tar ' pits of Southern California.
