Not a death was reported in Adams county during a three weeks period, indicating this a healthy climate ami community. It's well to remember that fireworks, including firecrackers, large or small, cannot be sold or used lawfully in Indiana until after June 20th. The thousands who will trade in Decatur Saturday are urged to read carefully the advertisements in the Daily Democrat. These are messages from the merchants to you. They will save you lime and money. A fine convenience and a splendid improvement is the marking of the streets at each intersection in Decatur. Frequently we have had difficulty in directing strangers to locations, because of no markings that could be definitely pointed out. It may be taken as a matter of course by many but by those who really use them, it will prove a One betterment. The Fairmount Construction Company is the low bidder for the improvement of highway 27 between this city and Monroe, $75,619.40 for the three and a half miles, which should assure a tine thoroughfare. It is by the way, one of the most important which enters the city. Wcrk will begin soon and the new road should be ready by late summer. The forty-eight violators of traffic laws who were handed tickets by the state police Friday evening, have cheerfully paid the one dollar reminder, thus showing a desire to cooperate. Any one is liable to violate the laws or ordinances and the good citizen pays with a smile and a resolve to be more careful. It is wise to inform cue's self as to just what the regulations are for of course ‘'ignorance is no excuse in law.” It’s very important that you register for unless you are so qualified you cannot vote next November. If you don't use your right of suffrage, you should certainly not complain about your government. The selection of officers is important and we are prone, especially during the year when we do not vote for president, NATIONAL SAFETY COUNCII

not to become interested. After all it's the other officials, close at home, that attend to the duties most affecting us. i. Congress has passed a wage t hour measure, providing for fortyfour hours a week and minimum t pay of twenty-five cents per Hour 1 the first year, increasing In two years to forty hours a week and ! forty cents an hour. It will probk J | ably have a tough battle in the i' senate but indications are that • sooner or later such a measure * I will lie adopted. The greatest ObI Jeetions to the bill come from the south where the wages mentioned in the bill mean a considerable increase In present scales. People generally favor the expenditure of money, since work must be furnished, for permanent j improvements. Every highway added means savings of life and. better transportation facilities. I Every school building erected by i aid of the government is an added , I asset to the nation. There is an, .... on «n.

' l immediate profit for such an in- ' vestment. Building of sea walls lor flood basins certainly saves ’ I money and it's wise to thus spend i our money. It is these kinds of . I improvements that are appreciat-1 • ed and when money is thus spent, ■ I no one will seriously object. I High school commencement oe-1 i curs tonight and sixty boys and ■ girls will receive sheepskins, show-1 ' ing they have made the proper , I credits ami which graduate them into the business of life. Whether .■they decide to go on with their j ,I studies or to enter immediately | i into the battle of earning a living., j they will find the years they have ■ spent at their studies were even I more important than they realized. There have been better periods II for those seeking work but if they I I are persistent, if they do each job > ‘ well that is given them, if they s train themselves to be expert in . any particular line, they will find : there is ample opportunity. BusII iness and the world is waiting to 1 honor and respect those who can I make them take notice. THE GOVERNOR ACTS: Again Indiana has kept its word, i It promised to support and assist | in every plan proposed to bring prosperity or restore prosperity. ; It pledged itself not to be laggard I but eager in this support. Governor M. Clifford Townsend, who made that promise, again is alert in redeeming it. The president declares that in order to obtain prosperity, the government must spend and lend. It will lend to states. It will give to the unemployed. It may lend ' to merchants and those in business. But there must be no star vation. no suffering. The answer is to bO found in tlie spending of more money and giving the people more jobs. There is still much to be done. There are public buildings to be erected. That is the plan of the president in his new recovery plan. He will lend to the states or give to the states, money which they need for permanent improvements. In this state the governor has found needs for $8,000,000 which can he spent, not for useless things but for projects which will add to the permanent wealth of the state, j He has prepared plans for new hospitals, for additions to asylums, to the boys' school. The need for each of these grows with poverty. They will be needed in the years that must come while society pays the price for the Hoover days of depression. To them will go, in all probability, an increasing number of those who are driven mad by their experiences, who sped? a generation under the conditions i of unemployment. With the adoption of the measure to provide‘funds for the new spending-lending plan, Indiana's plans wjll be prepared. There will be no delay in putting back to work the men who will be needed to build them. The state will again be ready to offer work. The fine
