Hear Clarence (Pat) Manion at the court room tomorrow evening. I The factory fund campaign must. be concluded this week. Let's ail get busy. Push the red up on that ther- i mometor which shows the stand-1 ing of the factory fund. The Democratic Woman's Club, and the Young Voters will have charge ot the rally here tomorrow evening and it's an important rally for the Democrats The Cube didn't win the world, series or any part of it but they put up four tine games, played until the very last minute as hard as they could and displayed a splenid brand of sportsmanship. A group of young business men are interested in the campaign to raise the funds necessary to aid in rebuilding the Krick Tynda!', plant. That's fine and they must succeed for the future good of the , community. An old time Democrat suggests | that in reply to those G. O. P. newspapers and politicians whoi are trying to pin something on Fred VanNuys we tell them he has had nothing pinned on him since he was a baby. His record i it ' -n and an open book. W *’ Four weeks from today is election. In the meantime the campaign will increase in interest from day to day. You owe it to yourself and to your community to take an interest in this important event. Study the issues, listen to the discussion and vote for those you feel are best trying to solve the important problems. Baseball is over and the fans are turning their attention to football.

' months we will have the whistle lof the referee on the basketball court. That’s where this country excels others. We let off our steam rooting tor our favorite j team, while others play at war, a much more reckless and foolish I game in which no one wins. Two local women who work and work hard for their sustenance have donated to the factory fund, each remarking they know what it is to need employment. What they give is not so much as the spirit back of it and we insist there are no better citizens than ihose who honestly and patrioticali ly thus join in the spirit of those movements for the general good of every one in the community. ■■■ — The Hon. Clarence Manion will tell you about the issues of the 1938 campaign at the court room tomorrow night and tell you in language you will understand. He is one of the greatest orators of ! his day. Get there early and get ' yourself a good seat. You will en- ' joy it and also the talks by Judge DeVoss, Frank Thompson, J. Fred I Fruchte, Mrs. Grady and the others. It's going to be a great politI icai meeting. We have heard several remarks , about the fact that state police patrol the streets of the city. That ' is their duty under the law and is done in every city in the state, I through which state highways i operate. They are charged with , seeing that traffic laws are obeyed and they work in conjunction with I local officials. That this adds to the program of improving traffic conditions goes without saying and ,is we believe a splendid step in i progress. - “The Chicago Tribune," which desperately desires the ejection of the New Deal from office says I elections are not won by platforms ' and speeches. "They are worn" j it says, "by organizations and doori bell pushing." If the Republicans ■in 1940 repeat their .'936 error of 1 ; presenting nothing more than their ideas of how the New Deal ought i to be run, they could push all of the doorbells from Hoboken to San , Diego without results. They would be told again that a salesman handling the same line was al-: ready in the house." —Kansas City | joitrnai-Posl (,lnu. > ~ The thermometer at the corner | of Madison and Second streets in-1 dicates the progress being made in the campaign to raise a total of SIO,OOO for the rebuilding of j the Krick-Tyndall plant. It will be watched with interest daily and I we hope (he red bubbles over the , top by the end of the week. It's i important. It means we are still alive. It means we are for our. industries that employs labor. It 1 means we believe it best to put a : hundred men back to work. Il ; means every thing to those men and their families. It means that every one has faith in the other ’ fellow and that we can go on to more and happy victories. PROSPERITY ARRIVES: Business In the United States is 10 per cent higher than the levels ot' June. Thus, reports Roger Babson, who predicts that it will continue to rise and top the year age level between now and Christmas. The spending-lending plan is no longer an experiment. It works. Tile, answer to unemployment is a job. These jobs have been turni ished in every Indiana city. Work- : ers arc busy now, constructing ' needed sewers and schools — and spending their wages. Labor will never be viewed as a | commodity again, to be bought ' and sold in the open market. ! There are standards of living beyond which this country will never . sink. For it has become the busi iness of government to provide ' work for the workless. When pri- . vate industry fails, the government, i is there w-ith Its needed projects

■ to give them work. Business depends upon the buyi ing power of workers and farmers. It can exist only when people ' are able to buy. That goes for j every store, from the smallest peaj uut stand to the biggest department store. In Indiana, the employment scri v s.. P reports that a gain of 6.1 per cent was made in the 2,312 establishments reporting. But the total ! wage paid grew 6.3 per cent which means that there was more money available for spending, that more shoes and clothes and food were bought. It means that the great factories I which manufacture tools for farm- . ers are again calling back their [ workers. o Scrapbook | By Roberta Lee ♦ —— 4 Baby's Toys Tie the baby's toys and playthings by a string to the arms of the high chair.
