Good luck to the Ossian Bear* and on to tbe state tournament. Id the wish of their friends around here. When a young man drinks during working hours it isn't long until he has more time tor drinking and less tor work. With that March wind blowing yesterday we thought of a lot ot things we would rather do than stand out at a public sale. We admit we don't know much about the European situation, but it looks that if Hitler keeps driv-1 in* on eventually he will have to come to a stop A woman member of the Ohio legislature has introduced a bill to tax bachelors from 6100 to 61,• 000 a year. We don't believe the boys will stand tor that, even if they have to move over to Indian*. Fort Wayne has mad< an overture for an airplane tactory in that | city. One of tbe favorable points in the location of an airplane plant in thia part of tbe state is the position taken by las federal government that it desires to let contracts for planes at factories located in protected inland cities Near-, ly all the aircraft industries are either on the west or east coasts and a site mon suitable than northern Indiana could nut be found for such an industrial venture. What's wrong with Decatur? Executives of the General Elec- 1 trie company cite (be gain in bus- ■ in ess enjoyed by the company since t|le Brst of tbe year and also point to the gain in employment of the past few months. This gain Is approximately Sb percent compared with the same period a year ago. Muuy persons have been call ed back to work tn the various G. E plants, that condition existing in the Decal ur works, where more than 30 people have been given employment In the past month. W«- all hope the stride upward continues. The editors anti publishers of the Gary Post-Tribune have hern arrested on a contempt of court charge as a result of an editorial appearing in the paper criticizing a decision made the judge of the city court in Gary Why shouldn't a ncwsfMper criticise a de* istmi if It cares to? The individual can du it while standing on a street corner and after all an editorial 1a tbe personal expression of an Individual Not many rwwMpupwrmen have ever beta cuuvicted of contempt of court decision mid wc ll make a bet that the Gary Judge eventually loses ids case. ' Without looking at tho calendar one would know that April Ist wus not far sway bocuiiuo they are j again talking coal strike.

fever heat and then *cMe off The federal government would not let the country sutler and things coma to a standstill because ot a i, coal strike. It could afford to. We need coal to run trains, tndus- ' trlea, power plants, schools and i hospitals and mine owners and I miners dare not bring about a con ' dlt lon which stop normal functions of life. [ The sudden death of Governor ) Frank Fltsgcrald of Michigan, is I not only a shock to the people of that stale but to the nation as ) well. It is the first time that a * chief executive of Michigan has died In other Governor Fitzgerald 1 was re-elected last November and vrsunii-d office only two months ago, bring defeated In the IMS election. The legislature la In 1 session and with a party majority in both houses he was putting through hie program His sue-1 censor Is the (o-year-oM lieutenant 1 governor, a man of opposite trails | and political thonght. although ot the same party. Governor Filigerald was only 64 years of age. The ardors of the campaign, the j responsibility of the great office I and'his desire to render worthy, public service no doubt impaired | his health and he tell an easy victim to the flu. We extend our * sympathies to Michigan ou the | i death of tbetr Governor. HITLER RATTING OUT OF TURN? The recent developments in I Czechoslovakia were almost cer-' tain to produce vigorous reactions , in Rome it is not apparent yet I just wbat the result will be, but 1 Mussolini evidently is doing some . deep thinking. There were unot ' tidal reports of surprise when ' Hitler took over the Suddeu areas just as there had been some con- i sternation when be occupied Au*-1 tris After the Austrian coup the Italian impression seemed to be | that it was Mussolini s turn to take something. Signor Benito had been permitt I ed to help himself in Ethiopia I After the Austrian grab there was loud talk in Italy about reaching out and grabbing Nice and some other adjacent territory. It was accepted as practically assured I that Mussolini, with the hacking I of Hitler, would add large areas' •o his colonial possessions in I northern Afrit a. and all at the expense of France, ft was supposed to be Beuito's move then, but I the Sudeten plum was ripe fori Picklug and Hltlar went ahead. Then there was more talk about i what France was about to lose at the hands of Mussolini, and with the moral, if not military, support of Hitler Now comes the CsechoSlovakian invasion—and more talk in Rome. The Italian empire builders ha vs bseu looking over Yugoslavia and are about convinced that there arc some Croats there that should be under the benign influencu and protection of 11 Dtice. Unfortunately there does not seem to be anything parallel to a Sudeten problem on which to make n beginning. There are only 3.360 Italians reported to be Mattered throughout the whole neighboring nation. But of course. Croats would do in a pinch if it is felt that they could be "protected" without encountering too much opposition. The prospec t of opposition seems to be the factor th"' is deHying also effort to get Nice and other French arena covered by Mussolini. ludtanapoUa Star. <►— — R Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE Q Should a man remove bls glov-j I' a woman offers to shake Uamis with Mm on the street?
