Give a dollar or two to the Red Cross. Money is needed for the flood areas along the Atlantic coast. Give to the factory fund and help return the men to work that they may take care ot their families aud help the community. Democratic headquarters are open and the organization is busy with plans to see that every one is registered, that they vote and that they vote right. The city and county local Democratic tickets are composed of excellent citizens, capable of doing the jobs they seek and deserving of your entire support. Don’t upset things now by voting wiuug. This nation Is rapidly getting back on its feet and the administration deserves your expression of support by voting for those who favor them. Are you properly registered? Don't wait for some one to call for you but go to the county clerk's office and see that your registration card is in proper form. Remember if you have moved, changed your name or have never registered, you must do so to qualify to ' vote in November. We have read with interest a ten-point platform issued by Mr. Gillie, Republican candidate for congress and we wonder what in the world he is doing on the G. O. I’, ticket. About the only thing in it that is opposed to the Democratic position is that he is against Mr. Earley because he wants in. , Plans are almost completed for the campaign to raise eight thous-1 and dollars to assure the rebuilding of the Krick-Tyndall plant and the drive will be made Monday. I it is important because upon the result of this effort depends the livelihood of a hundred splendid men who wiil be returned to employment. The men who have worked for years at the Krick-Tyndall plant want to return to their duties and they want that worse than they ever wanted any thing. You can help them by subscribing liberally to the fund next week. If they can afford to give one day's wages for ten pays, we should match them and more. The world is war minded just now and though wc are thousands of miles from the scenes of action we feel a part of it as the news 1 is constantly and instantly brought to us. It is difficult to understand why war should come when every one seems agreed on the general subject and when the demands of Dictator Hitler can be obtained ( without bloodshed, it is to be hop- ;

ed that "black Saturday" will turn out to be a happy, sunny day instead. Judge DeVoss in a self made man who has risen to the highest t position In the county by his own I efforts. He is u candidate for 1 judge ot the appellate court, a ’ position he can 1111 with great credit. He should have the largest vote ever given to any one in this ’ county aud he will have if you i help get the vote out and suggest ' to your neighbor that he vote the , Democratic ticket. I 1 The local Red Cross is asking | contributions to aid those in the stricken flood areas of the NewEngland states. Thousands of families are in distress in those i sections along the Atlantic aud I the quick relief given by the Red Cross saved many lives. The usual epidemic of disease is prevailing and there is much work to 1 be done. We have always done our share when these terrible disasters have occurred aud we will not I fail this time. The Continental Credit Corporation of Winchester which for two ' 1 or three years did a large volumn of business through the middle west and which finally blew up to the tune of a million dollars, wreck- ■ ing several banks, including the ; Commercial Bank of Vnion City. ! seems to have violated federal laws as well as the state statutes. , Several former officials have been i indicted by the federal grand jury I i and the outlook is bad for those who caddied the scheme. It fre-. quently doesn't pay to try to get something for nothing. The city will install a cooling I j tower at the city pond, thus cor- I reding the spreading of the mist in that neighborhood It will also be much better because the water can be cooled to fifty degrees temp- ■ erature instead of seventy as un- . dor the present system. It will add greatly to the efficiency and vaiue of the local power and light plant and will be appreciated by the citizens of Decatur. The in-! stallation depends of course on the approval of the application for a federal grant but it is the belief of all interested that this will come I through in due time. Mr. Gillie favors a decent wage j for WPA workers but when his party was in control of affairs in | this country, they did nothing to I aid the man who labors with his ' hands, depending upon the tariff laws to take care of him along with every one else. They will do nothing now if so lucky as to [ get the power which they of course cannot do. The senate is sure to [ be Democratic, the executive j branch of government will be so • for at least two years and the lower house of congress will be two j j to one Democratic or about so. ’ - This district should be in accord I with the national administration if | we expect to keep pace with the , other growing and going sections i of America. The speech of Mr. Chamberlain ■ touched the hearts and souls of millions. He believes in peace and j pleaded for it and whether we be- i lieve the Hiller position right or wrong we most certainly all agree with the great English statesman ; tli.it peace is at all times prefer- j able to war. In this particular instance when the heads of all the | great nations of Europe agree that - i Germany should and can have the , Sudeten territory without bloodshed and under orderly arrange- ] t ments, whoever hurls the world into another bloody conflict will go down in history carrying a grave responsibility for which be will never be forgiven by those ( | who must suffer. The prayers of i millions of people are that the conflict be averted and that the peace asked by the premier coni tinues forever. 500 Sheets 16-lb, White Paragon Bond typewriting paper 55c.

GOV. TOWNSEND AT CONFERENCE Indiana Governor Praises Federal, State Cooperation — Tulsa. Okla, Sept. 28 —- (UP) — Gov M. Clifford Townsend of Indiana today told a governors’ conference that cooperation between state and federal governments, and ainoug states. Is a constructive way to meet modern social and economic conditions. The governor »poke on Federal Standards for state programs. "As our problem* have become state-wide and nation-wide, instead of local, greater responsibilities' have been thrust on federal and I state government." Townsend said. “A natural consequence has been the setting of standards by state and federal governments to be followed 'by lesser units of government. wherever federal or state funds are used.” •‘Our attitude in Indiana on the question of federal standards is that the federal government I through its experience in other slates will be able to give us vai- ! uable advice. “I do not believe that federal' standards will injure the workabil-? ity of a state program, if the federal' attitude is one ot cooperative consultation. “I believe that the states should 1 | retain a reasonable responsibility I for the administration of federal- : state programs, and 1 also believe ■ that we must prove by our admin- ' istration that we are capable of I meeting our responsibility. "We can accomplish this by tryj ing to understand the administrative problems of the Federal gov-1 I eminent and by cooperation to the ■ ' fullest extent with the federal au- 1 I thorities.” i o OF A ADAMS COUNTY |4-II CLUBS| TO STATE FAIR (By Hazel Yake) On Friday. August 28, Mr. Archbold drove Avonelle Beihold and myself to the State Fair girls’ • school at Indianapolis. On arriving we registered and were shown our new home for the next two weeks. There were two dormitories for ; the girls and also two rooms for our suit cases aud clothing. The , dormitory was a beautiful sight. On entering the door one could see ( long lines of white beds which were ' always neatly made up. There were representatives at . the school from all the counties in the state with the exception of one. , Ou the first evening we were divid- ' e<l into groups, in which we re- , mained through our stay there. Each girl was given an identificai tion card on which was written her i county and name. From inis card ■ bung a ribbon. These ribbons were ■to identify us as groups, as each '' group had a different color. There ! | were six groups of approximately ' thirty girls in tach group. All of the work of the state fair I school was done 'by us girls. Each ■ group took turns in doing the 'duties. The main duties were as follows: baking, preparing the ( meals, serving, washing dishes, . laundry work and dormitory work.
