Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everyth ere, at any and all times. John wrote his name in , local history yesterday when he■ piloted his plane to Fort Wayne, carrying the first government mail ever sent out of this county by ' plane. Now that you have used air mail it may be well to remember that ' it's a line service that should be | supported and a mighty convenient one when you wish to get your i messages through in a hurry. It's summer according to the ■ thermometer ami many are gelt- ‘ ing their summer wardrobes ready ; for use. You can find just what you need in the Decatur stores and I you can save plenty of money by ■ patronizing them. More letters were sent by air mail yesterday than usually is | thus forwarded in months. And I more people are now air mail j minded than before National Air Mail week was observed. It has been a big success. All the city parks, prepared and improved, will be opened for the season this week, providing places j for the people to enjoy themselves I during -the summer months. Decatur is justly proud of her beau-tiful-parks. which compare favorably with those in cities several , times our size. I The -city council, cooperating | with the WPA will improve a num-1 ber of Decatur streets, a very i splendid way to spend the money j granted, by the federal govern-j incut. Eight resident streets are ■ included in the program, thus adding to employment and providing | permanent improvements for the 1 city. —- Indiana has lost one of its most. highly respected veteran publishers in the death of John A. Kautz, for more than fifty years the own-i er of the Kokomo Tribune, an out-1 standing journal in the centrall part of the state. An ardent Re-I publican, he was always fair and j his newspaper was considered reliable and conservative always. The Kirkland township contest over the recent primary results for trustee will be disposed of Monday by three recount commisniissioners appointed by Judge DeVoss. The men named are Wilft W ri 1 mF—national Safely Council
Hum Griffith and Fred Adler, Demoi rars and .Milt Girod, Republican, excellent citizens, who will decide the questions upon their merits I ami whose decisions will be gen orally accepted. Interest Is growing in the out | come of the spectacular 500-mlle' automobile races to be staged at Indianapolis speedway May 30th. ! It is a sporting event which draws . from all over the world and the ■ ! colorful scene Is of itself a great 1 I thrill. When the thirty or more ears start down the stretch for the ' ! get-away,, you will feel more than , repaid for the effort and expense ' I of attending the greatest race of l its kind staged any where. G. (). P. leaders have worked themselves into a frenzy over the outlook in Pennsylvania for the November election. However they perhaps realize and if they don t, they will, that the campaign hasn't 1 even started and that the results are considerably in doubt. Os course it's Republican by about a., million normally and any reduc-, I tion from that is a Democratic vici lory, so what's so wonderful about | it? From 1921 to 1929 an average of | i about SOU banks closed each year. in 1930 1.352 failed, in 1931 there | were 2,294. in 1932 the number was i 1,45(1 and in 1933 the total was 14.004. Last year only 71 banks failed and in each case every de- ! . positor got his money in full up I to $5,000. That's the difference , ■between a depression under the old i laws and the Hew. If a year ago when bus Hess began to slow up, 1 we would have to contend with the | added worries and losses of the , ! old days as a result of bank fail- • ures, we would now be really up against something. Voder the new laws the average depositor cannot . 1 lose and consequently there is confidence. Adams county banks aie in excellent condition in every I ! way and there is nothing to worry about. Thai’S soinelhiug. The Young Democrats of Indi-. ana today began a state-wide edu- ! rational "Co-operate With Roosevelt” campaign designed to give; the people of Indiana a “truthful understanding of the President s new recovery program.” Author-: j ity for conducting the educational campaign was granted by the jDemocratic State Central Commit-. I tee after the executive committee I of the Young Democrats of Indiana passed a vigorous resolution on-1 'dorsing the • President's program.! 'The Young Democrats of Indiana , have the utmost confidence in the ' President of the United States. ' Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and in i his program of economic freedom i ■ and social security for the encouragement of peace,” the resolu-' tion stated. The resolution pointi i d out that recent attacks against i President Roosevelt were motivated by insincerity and selfishness, j “We recognize that certain vested I interests in this nation are selftsjj-, | ly resisting to the utmost of their' I power the rightful demand of the ! common man for a just share of ' the economic goods created through his labor." If you worry too much about j your own troubles, they can get you down. But if a man hobbles by on crutches, or you see a blind man tapping with a. white cane to 1 find his way in a lifetime of dark- ' ness, you may suddenly realize how rich you are. In America today a lot of people have let their mouths : sag at the corners, have devoted , a lot of time worrying how bad I conditions are, have been looking I for buzzards instead of bluebirds. ; While we have no patience with I people who go around with trump-1 ed-up grins and a perpetual “keep | smiling” philosophy, we do see a great deal that is beautiful and fortunate in our American scene. IWe would all be better off, and j the economics of the country would be helpful, if folks would gut out of this down-at-the-heel complex. • look at the good things a little 1
