Just what good they do any body excepting those who profit from the manufacture or operation of them, we can't imagine, but now Is the'Ume to explain the benefits. Eddie Watson of Milwaukee is dead. That probably doesn’t mean a thing to you but Eddie was the J>oy who seventy years ago played 30 many pranks on his Parents and friends that George Peck, later governor of Wisconsin, wrote the book, “Per k's Bad Boy," using young Watson as his example. The book was popular for years and was a hit on the stage. Officers of the Krick-Tyndall company are working as rapidly as they can to conclude all the details necessary to start construction of the new building and will announce plans just as soon as Ahoy can be determined.

Paddock, active and successful in his rpo- ' session and a man who for many ; years took an active part in poll- | tics. He served eight years as mayor ot Portland and in 1920 was the Democratic nominee for con- : 1 gress from the eighth district. A I man of pleasing personality and much ability, he was popular and was widely known. Dr. Paddock was well and favorably known in j this city and county and his many friends are grieved to learn of his i death. He was 65 years old. was i born in Randolph county and had resided in Portland since 1901. A lot of congressmen who talked so loudly during the campaign i that WPA workers were being un- j derpaid and that old folks should , have larger pensions are going to i have a lot of explaining to do when they get home. The administration program has been to do every thing possible for the unfortunate and have been accused of going I too far. The president asked an

appropriation of $875,000,000 to operate WPA until June but congress with almost a solid Republican vote, turned it down to the tune of $150,000,000, which means throwing out of work about a million men. What do you suppose I those poor fellow’s will think about , the shattered promises of the campaign? Some idea of the feeling of Republican members of the legistsi ture and the spirit that motivates them is disclosed in the report of Maurice Early, political writer for ■ the Indianapolis Star, in his story ■ of a bill to appropriate SIO,OOO to aid Indiana shippers in their fight I against the governors of southern states who are demanding that their manufactures be given discrinatory and preferential freight rates into Indiana. It was reported favorably from the committee I after much hesitation and Mr. I Early has this to say that indicates ’ the narrow view being taken: "The G. O. P. committee members are not opposed to Indiana government giving financial aid in the light, but they disliked approving a request of Governor Townsend." In other words, whether Governor Townend is right or wrong, they are "agin" any thing he proposes. I is that your idea of good legisla- | tion? Floyd I. McMurray, state super- ' intendent, answered air questions asked him by members of the senate committee as regards the selection of school books in Indiana and convinced his questioners that se far as he knew, and he does know, no effort has ever been made by ex-Governor McNutt or Govern >r Townsend to influence his selection and more than that he had never been approached by any book man with any proposition io do any thing but his plain duly. It's a shame and a disgrace that members of the legislature make veiled insinuations against officers who have tried their best to render service to the people. Mr. McMurray is a fine citizen, an honest and efficient officer and that fact is known to every one who has contacted his office during his administration. The same things can he said of every member of the state board of education, we arc sure. II o — I * Modern Etiquette I* By ROBERTA LEE Q.

ASSERTS FEES NOT COLLECTED Tucker Indicates OutState Finance Companies Not Paying Indianapolis, Jan. 19.- (U.PJ Serretary of State James M. Tucker said todav that he has asked State Auditor Frack Thompson tor a report on whether out-of-state finance companies have been paying fees totalling an estimated $350,000 as required by Indiana law. The possibility exists that the state may revoke the licenses of these finance companies if They have not paid their fees of 50 cents on each SIOO of annual business imposed under a 1929 statute. Affected would be all companies which finance automobiles, radios and other items of personal property. Tucker indicated that the fees have never been collected. The attorney-general's office has taken the view that the 1929 law is unconstitutional because it discriminates against out-of-state finance companies. The disputed law gives any citizen the right to sue for collection of these fees in behalf ot the state if the attorney-general does not act. Two Indianapolis lawyers. Remster Bingham and Oscar Hagemier, have filed suit against 11 "foreign" finance companies under this provision in federal and Mar ion county courts.
