The campaign is swinging into full sway and from now on Caere j will be plenty doing. Watch the calendar and attend the various meetings. The outlook for the autumn and . for next year is wonderful.

Get in touch with your district j committeeman or call at the coun- ■ ty clerk's office at once. The powers of Europe have proven that war can be averted. The : passing of the grave crisis is the , most wonderful oecurence in 7eceiit history and we are proud of the fact that President Roosevelt without involving this country, was : able to aid in stopping the march 1 of soldiers. The .Callithumpian parade on Hallow’een will be the best ever I I and you tan mark that evening down right now as the occasion I for a lot of fun Get in the line of ; march or along the side lines as , you prefer. For years it has beeni a play night and we always have ' a good time here. Returning a hundred men to; steady work means a hundred fam-, ilies self supporting and able lo patronize your place of business.’ It's a fine investment to give to j this cause. The guarantee is a big pay roll, the building of a new j modern plant and a long run for the biggest drain tile mill in this , part of the country. It’s more important that we save I the industries we have and that we prove our loyalty to them than it is to get new ones. The KrickTyndall Company through many! decades have proven a great asset ; lo Decatur. Rebuilt the plant will be larger and better than ever and will coutfane to be a big part of the community. We owe them our support. Bob Fellers, the sensational youth who has pitched for the ■

! Cleveland Indians the past two ; season,s dosed this years program I by making a world record. He ! struck out eighteen men in a game against the Detroit Tigers, I which his team nevertheless lost by a score of four to one. That's i the way of the world. Sometimes we lose when we win. The terrible automobile accidents in this territory the past ■ several weeks should certainly make every one take a greater in- , terest in those movements design- ' ed to provide greater protection ' for every one. Automobile traffic will continue to increase and that j means the hazard will be greater. It wilbrequire a long and earnest 1 . campaign to combat the dangers, j — WPA workers are as scarce as ■ hen's teeth in Brown county, Ind- ; I iana! Yes, Mr. Ripley, at the end I ,of this month, (October 1938) i Biown county will mark its second I straight year as the only county in Indiana and one of the few in , the United States that does not have a WPA worker or project. Ac- , cording to John K. Jennings, state administrator, the last WPA work- ' , er in the county entered private ■ ' employment in October 1936. and since that time no organization has ; existed. Judge DeVoss, a candidate for i ■ judge of the appelate court, has • been well over the state and is enthusiastic about the outlook for another great victory for the Democratic party. He attended a meeti ing of the state candidates at Indianapolis yesterday and the reports ■ from every section were encourag- ‘ ' ing. This county should give the [ judge a vote that will convince the I of Indiana that we are for him and believe in his ability to • serve the people of the state as he has this city and county in the past. The world series is the next at-' traction and for a week the tans of the nation will be interested, in the battle between the New York * Yankees and the Chicago Cubs, j The Windy City boys put on a I sensational finish, winning ninety per cent of their games the last ! mouth to take the national league . championship away from the Pirates. They enter the world series with the odds against them but inspired as they are. they might re-■ peat the performance of the Bosi ton team which years ago took Philadelphia four straight to sur- i prise the world and upset all the i bookies. The Democrats of Adams coun- ( ty present a ticket composed of . excellent citizens, each well qualified for the position he seeks. They deserve your support.

Farley of the Democratic National Committee in an address at Canton. Ohio, Mon- | day night. "The Roosevelt admin-1 istratiqn has endeavored to meet I every problem laid on the doorstop of the Federal Government lin straightforward, resolute fash- ' ion. with no ducking and no dodging. We. go before the country on a record of accomplishment unrivaled in 'recent history and it would be Hie simplest thing imniaghialile for Hie Republican party lo decide ' just w'hat it proposes to repeal and just what remedies it intends ■ to substitute for those in ettect."

He was an inventor, too, but his inventions j never had ought him recognition. ' He decided yesterday to try again. He constructed a new device. He took a three foot length of iron pipe, inserted a .38 calibre pistol cartridge and fashioned a breech | lock with a small bit of cylindrical iron — almost a finished shot gun. It lacked only a firing mechanism so he kindled a fire in his backyard and thrust the breech of the weapon into the flames. A small boy watched curiously over a back fence as Horbiak seated ! himself before the fire, the weap- ! on's muzzle pointed at hfs chest. The boy asked him what he was doing. "Testing Invention,” he mumbled. He sat immobile. The heat increased. Finally there was a roar and he tumbled from his seat, the bullet from his homemade gun imbedded in his heart. 500 Sheets S'/ixll Yellow 1 Second Sheets, 35c. Decatur Democrat Company. ts

LAW CHANGES STATE ISSUE Demand For New Laws Add To Interest In Fall Election By Paul T. Smith ' United Press Staff Correspondent j (Copyright, 1938, by United Press) Indianapolis. Ind . Oct. i — (U.P> — Widespread demand for new laws on several important sub jects which have been incubating I during the past year has created ; I unusual interest hi the election of members of the state legislature next month, a United Press sur-' I vey revealed today. Not only will the selection of ! the general assembly determine ■ whether the Democratic party will ' I retain its dominance or whether . there will be a closer balance bei tween the Democrats and Republicans. but many of the state issues in the all-important 1940 election will be delineated also, and both parties will go to the polls two years hence on the legislative rec--1 01 d. I Several issues are apparent now , i which may wreck party lines when i the 1939 legislative showdown I comes. These are: 1. Revision of the election laws I to provide for the direct primary ’ for nominating state tickets. 2. Revision of the state liquor laws — which threatened to bei come an issue in the special session last August, and which Gov. M. Clifford Townsend yesteixlay brought into the often «<th the an- ! nouncement that a study of existi ing law will be made with an eye | toward revision. 3. Complete overhauling of Ind- ‘ iana s marriage laws. A commission composed of about 55 prominent Hoosiers already as work pre- i , paring recommendations on this highly controversial subject. 4. A Welter of tax revision proposals from special groups, climaxed by the report of the governor's tax study commission as a ‘ j basis for equalizing the tax strucj ture. There is no doubt but that a bill . to return to the direct primary will be introduced in the 1939 session and will have support from , elements of both parties — possibly from Governor Townsend himself. Agitation for the primary system reached " climax with the Duiuocratie and Republican state contentions last summer and has . been smoldering ever since, cer- ' tain to break out again. The Democrats wavered all over the Tot before finally renominating Senator Frederick Van Nuys. First he was going to be purged i to setfTe several oM scores against him by the regular organization as well as for his two insurgencies against the new deal. Sam Jackson of Fort Wayne originally was picked to succeed him; then Lieut. Gov. Henry Schricker and finally the statehouse machine took Van Nuys back. All this produced a confusion in the minds of the rank and file organization workers and revived

\ cries of "boss-ridden" state conventions In which the actual elect- | orate Had no voice. Townsend has not spoken out yet on this issue, but the theme of his 1938 campaign speeches is that the Democratic party tries to obey the will of the people. Carried to the logical conclusion, Townsend should approve the j “Democratic process” of a primary election and several persons close ito the governor believe he will. 1 The only prime question is whether the Democratic leadership will attempt one more state convention to Hold Iniflkna democracy solidly behind the presidential aspirations , of former Gov. Paul V. McNutt. Republicans, among whom direct primary sentiment appeared strongest, were tn much the same situation as the Democrats last June. Five candidates sought the nominattbn for U. S. senator with the side issue raised by some Republican leaders as to whether the G. O. P. should nominate Van Nuys. There was a strong current of opinion among Republicans then, and there is now, to let the people
