The city of Pasadena, California, has 38.300 automobiles or one tor every two persons Just what Is the point of saturation? It the parents of the boys who persist in shooting lire crackers near the hospital, much to the injury of patients, are not sufficiently interested to control the children, I it seems to be up to the authorities. The city police are really working at the traffic job as is shown by the fact that fourteen were arrested over the week end for parking overtime and for speeding. I That s their duty and the way to I avoid it is to obey the laws and 1 regulations ———. A Dr. E. C. Haynes la sending ' out the information that .Mr. Wil-j lis ran 9.0 W behind his ticket in ' the fourth district in the last elec tion. 8.000 behind in the second, and 4.00 V behind in the fifth, try ; ing to show evidently that something was wrong. The Fourth of July will be duly ‘ celebrated in Decatur by the boys of Adams post No. 43. American Legion, who again will give a' wonderful display of firework* The event will occur in the eve ; ning in the big field at the HaansNuttman park and will be worth 1 watching. Plan to l»c there. Boys who must shoot fire crack era should be careful. It's so easy , to get badly burned or oiherwta* . injured when handling explosive* I in any form. For that reason the | legislators have enacted a law , making this the last year tor th* | sale of fireworks, except to com-1 mil tees in charge of general celebrations. Baseball, prise fights, summer resorts. all sorts ot amusements and entertaining events are doing a big business, the best proof we know of that people have money with which to do those things they wish to do that are actually not necessary to keep soul and body together, in other words times are pretty good. The mayor of Willshire says Decatur Is the best town within a radius of 100 miles under 16,000 population. That's a broad statement but Mr. Alspaugh who has resided In our neighboring town for more than a quarter century bslteves It and unsolicited, wrote it out and signed his name to It. We appreciate his commendation and hope we can continue to merit It. There are always youngsters who get pleasure from annoying veopie and the more attention paid to them, the greater their glee. That's expected under ordinary circumstances and many adults smile with the youngsters, but when this Is the creation of noise near homes or a hospital where there ire seriously sick people, surely there is

a means of making them realise how serious their fun making is. If you miss the festivities at In- * tilana|H>lls Friday you will be pass ing up the greatest political event i ever held tn the state. Friends ot, Commission* r Paul V. McNutt are 1 out to make him president of the I l United States, are very much in i earnest and realise they haw thu , outstanding candidate tn the coun-l I try. Paul will be given such a' ' welcome as will make him proud 1 ’ to be a Hoosier. This county will * send a large delegation, I Sheriff E*l Miller has begun a drive to curtail speeding through | the small towns of the county and in this should have the support of 1 every good citlxcn. Several accl-1 dents have resulted the past few weeks beam of drivers uot paying proper atleuliuu to speed signs and regulations. Violators should not tom plain if they are picked up for it seems there is no other way to stop this dangerous practice. MkfiMMMMMHHWBHIEHb The resignation of Rev. James A. Weber of the First United Brethren church of this city is sin< erely regretted by his parishI loner* and by many others who I recognise him as an earnest and capable religious worker. HowJ ever every one is happy that he I has been chosen as a member of th*- fatuity at the Indiana Central College, Indianapolis. where he will have charge of Bible and rejjgious education. He will make, good and wc offer our cougratula- j tiuns. A scandal tn the Louisiana State 1 I University, where it is claimed a I I shortage of more than 8100.000 has ' I been discovered, has resulted inf j thv rt‘Si&nAtion us Governor Lx*dit* I and succession by Earl Long, lieuI tenant governor and brother of the 1 late kingfish, Huey Long, who for j several years had his state and nation wondering what would happen next. Earl is said to be al- * most an opposite type from bls * brother and it is predicted by many will straighten affairs out in a hurry. You can spend an interesting 1 I few minutes thia evening by listenjmg to the report of the LouisI Tony Gaiento fight. It may not last more than a few seconds or they may decide to give the suck-1 i * rs who paid 827 50 for a scat a chance to tie a shoe string and still see a couple of blows. Few I think the two-tou bar tender, who j a year ago was very ill with j pneumonia and who was never | considered a contender for the I < hamplonshlp. has a chance, but ho might land one that would change opinions. The Bente Witness has acquired the ownership of the Berne Review, the two papers merging Into the* one. The Review will be dis- 1 continued and the Witness will' have the entire field in the newspaper business. Mr. Musselman, founder of the Review and editor during the nearly fourteen years it has operated will continue his Job business and will edit a special column tn the Witness. The tonsumatlon of the deal which has born pending the past two years is the natural result where two liapors operate. Similar < onsolidalions or mergers are being made I over the country and In many cities | even up to those of 30,88* popu-I lation. only one newspaper la opor-1 ating. The Review has been a live 1 and interesting eeani-weekly, has enjoyed a good patronage and hud a large subscription list but never- > theleas >ould not be opentod at a ( profit. The Witness will take over | the Review Hat and see that all contracts on subscription are carried out. We wish continued success to both organisations. , „„„ Q | ■■■ , , Any fi or R exposure roll Developed and Printed for 25c. Edwards Studio, 202 South Second Street.

Long piled flowers on the grave ot his assassinated brother, the late Huey P. Long, on the lawn In front of the skyscraper statehouse and set out t**dny to help a grand jury clean up one of the worst political scandals in Louisiana's troubled history—- the case of Dr James Monroe Hmlth. fugitive former president ot the state university.

The banks think the state will have to stand good for; the notes and the state, tn the; person of attorney general David l M Ellison, says that it will not. that if It should do so, the slate Itself would commit a felony. It was also learned that 8800,000 worth ot Louisiana state unlver- ! slty bonds, which Smith offered to i his broker for margin when the wheat market was falling, and which the broker refused to take I Itecauae there was some question a (tout their legality, had not been seen since. Finally, a third blow fell today I when it was reported that Invest! I gators could not find an additional I 8120.000 worth of negotiable L.B.U. bonds. In the face of these develop- > menta. Gov.
