Representative SCHEERER di CO. 15 Lexington Avenue, New York 35 East Wacker Drive, Chicago Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies The day of Thanksgiving is history. Hope you had a tine time and plenty of turkey and cran- [ berry sauce. — Candidates in the recent election are again reminded they must tile their expense report by December Sth. Many have so fair failed to do so. If they don't quit bouncing the decision on the proposed hospital addition around we will begin to think we are getting election re-1 turns again. Onty thirty days until Christmas and many are already planning for that always great event. Start looking around and selecting your gifts so the rush will be easier. According to the Indiana Business -Review, business increased two per cent in October, the fifth consecutive month for improved conditions in the state and the best evidence of steady climb from the recession. GOP leaders are claiming that every good thing done by President Roosevelt was proposed by Mr. Hoover. That s something We are sure Mr. Roosevelt will enjoy hearing that he has done something so good his enemies want the credit. It s just a month until Christmas and it's time to do your shopping qgrly. Look over the special stocks for the season in the local stores. You will find just what you want, tor less price, better quality and more guarantee than any where else you can trade. “ ~ In these days when there is much conversation about old age pensions it will be wel It'or the young men not to depend too much on such an income, at least for any large amount in twenty years from new. according to the guess of numerous expert economists. — “’Only the “truly needy” will be kept on relief rolls by the WPA it Has been announced from Washington. The reason given is that, the billion and a half dollar fund is running low and must last until March Ist, so it will be necessary to drop a number from the lists. Poor Mr. Rockefeller left an estate of only $2(1,000,000. While that sounds like a considerable amount to the average citizen of Adams county, it was only pocket change for the late financier who was the first citizen of the world to accumulate an estimated billion dollars. He spent years giving it away. Thanksgiving dinners average $6-55 for a family of eight in Indiana if you had turkey, oysters, cranberries, sweet potatoes and all the other things tliat go to make such an affair complete. That’s about ten per cent less than the same dinner cost last year, according to the estimates of experts.
Republicans of the fourth dis-
Republicans of the fourth district, some 1,500 selected ones, held a victory dinner at Fort Wayne the other night. None of those Demoi. crats who helped them win were present and none of them will be t in on any division of the fruits of a political victory, which may t come to the GOP. Those will be ’ saved tor the faithful. It looks to the average rural j citizen that there should be > some way to keep the Chicago > stock market open, while the con- * troversy concerning the demands I of the employes are pending. The 1 nation can’t go forward very rapidI ly if we are to be continually interferred with by strikes and disputes between labor organizations. I The bandits who held up the Steuben County Bank at Angola I and waited forty minutes for the time lock to work, then fixed clothing for pillows under the heads of the employes and customers, before leisurely leaving with SIO,OOO, 1 were evidently not pressed for time. They are the cool and calcu-1 lating kind who plan their jobs and ’ carry them through, regardless of what they have to do. If those who want to recount the ballots of the recent election in seven counties, know of any violations of laws, they have the right to presecute and in that they will have the support of all good citi- i zens. What they want is to cast suspicion on their opponents, so, they can have something to whine , 1 about in the next campaign, In- : stead they are convincing the pubi lie they are a lot of hard losing , ! sports. Mr. McNutt will not resign as commissioner of the Philippine Is- ’ lands. Please remember that he ! has an SIB,OOO job with a good living and much power, the finest and best paid job of the V. S. A. except the presidency or supreme court judgeship. He would be very foolish to resign now regardless i ,of what his plans are for the future. In due time he will probably state his position in words I clear enough for most anybody to understand. Some movie star has a chance to make herself a heroine in real life. All she has to do is to launch j a successful movement away from | the ugly, gory-lookiug fingernails and lips of today's otherwise-fair ' ladies. A graceful touch of lipcolored Cupid s bow may be, often is, attractive. But what is it that makes a woman imagine that there is anything beautiful about a bloody 1 gash in the face? And how about those sanguinary talons reminis- I cent of the harpies of classic myth--1 ology, whose faces were fair but whose claws were forever stained with gore - ? It is, you say, the j ; "style”? What of it? Why continue a mode that is nothing short of disfiguring? Thus do we throw discretion to the winds and stick our editorial neck out to risk fresh staining of the new Lady Macbeths' , I fingernails. -a Port Wayne News1 Sentinel. The Port Wayne News-Sentinel, which widely proclaims its independence, has bragged so much ' over Republican victories and ■ howled so vigorously over defeats in the recent election, that we are almost convinced (?) that if Mr. ■ Willis had won he would have declined the office until Senator Van ■ Nuys had coaxed him to take it. > The election was close but the ■ efforts now being made by the > partisan Republican press — and - don’t let them "kid” you, the News- . Sentinel is a part of it —are ridiculous. If there was any thing wrong they have the opportunity to file j affidavits or take other legal pro- - ceedurc. Instead of t hat they pro- , ceed a course courary to law and 1■ the supreme court of Indiana has : properly ruled against them. The i state will be represented in the ; U. S. senate by Frederick Van • Nuys. able, experienced and cap- ,. I able.

SHERIFF MAKES GOOD COLLECTOR Dallas Brown Complimented By Clarence A. Jackson Today Indianapolis, Nov. 25.—A survey of the delinquent collections records of the state gross Income tax division indicates that Sheriff Dallas Brown has done an excellent job as an assistant in the administration of the gross income tax in Adams county, Clarence A. Jacksou, director of the tax division, pointed out today. "The Indiana gross income tax act is unique in making the sheriffs of the counties a part of the administrative force for the collection of the tax and in imposing certain definite duties upon them,” Mr. Jackson said. “Sheriff Brown has established an enviable record for himself by consistent and diligent performances of his duties (often when it would have been politically expedient for him to 'used the soft pedal’) and by general efficiency in the handling of the warrants for collection issui u to him by the state department of Mt. Tabor M. E. Lloyd W. Bower, pastor Sunday School, 9:15 a. m. Edward Koos, superintendent. Worship service, 10:15 a. m.

treasury.” "The collection of gross income tax by a warrant to the sheriff re . questing him to levy upon and sell any real or personal property of the taxpayer tor the purpose of satisfying the amount of the warrant, is unpleasant for everybody concerned, as well as extremely costly to the taxpayer,” Mr. Jackson continued. “A warrant Is used for the collection of tax only when all other means for the collection of the tax have been exhausted. The taxpay. ers are given every opportunity to pay their tax with the smallest possible amount of cost and inconvenience. "We hope that during the current enforcement drive that it will be unnecessary to resort to such drastic measures as warrants to the sheriff, but if that is necessary. it will be done, and done with tuU confidence born of experience that Sheriff Brown will give the Hate the same kind of splendid cooperation that he has given in the past.”
