There were thirty-three fewei deaths iu Indiana the first ab months of this year than in th« same period last year, according t: Colonel Willlan, state police super intendent. A total of 357 person 1 were killed in street and highway accidents the first half of 1945. a« compared with a toll for a similai period last year, the provisional report showed. Urban fatalities declined 20 percent, while the ru ral rate was up about one percent, O—O No official under Franklin D. Roosevelt was more reviled and slandered than Harry Hopkinfl, the frail relief administrator who finally became liaison man between the President and the armed forces and one of the most brilliant diplomats in our history. Now that Hopkins has left public life, having fruitful journey to Moscow, even climaxed hie service in his last his detractors are realizing bow ridiculous was their earlier clamor against him.— Chicago Sun. —o—o Japan’s eea and air power is diminishing so rapidly now that it will soon be regarded a total loss. In the meantime our forces are ranging at will over land and sea in the campaign to so soften the army that invasion will be easier. That doesn’t mean that the land forces will not have plenty of opposition for all kinds of suicide methods of destruction are being worked out in that country and will be used to stop us. It, however, cannot get far without supplies, and these are being cut off daily as plants are destroyed and sa lanes stopped by the Navy and Marine forces. -0 Your Help Is Needed: Indiana OPA officials today urged Hoosier consumers and business people to ‘‘gird themselves for what appears to be the most formidable test of the price control and rationing program.” The executive staff of the Indiana OPA district, headed by James D. Strickland, issued a statement expressing the hope that every citizen will ‘‘think twice and examine the facts before accepting criticisms of the agency ae an excuse for failure to cooperate with regulations designed to save the nation from inflation.” "It is the privilege of all Americans, and may we never lose that privilege, to criticize their government’s policies,” the statement said. "However, in a program aa vast as that of price control and rationing and with the absolute essentiality or voluntary support and cooperation, lose and vitriolic criticism contributes to a general breakdown. “It i« impossible for OPA to reach every citizen with a full and clear explanation of all the why’s and wherefore’s of its policies. In the face of this handicap we know that the months ahead will be more difficult than any we have experienced. The food situation particularly will bring a test of our ability to retain our perspective, because food shortages strike painfully at every law-abiding home and increase the temptation to condone black markets. “OPA can not succeed unless it is supported by the general public. We urge every citizen to make a full and complete study of OPA’? actions, especially those which have been referred to as ‘broken promises.’ It has been demonstrated many times that the most severe critics become the most ardent cunporters when they fully understand the reasons behind the many things that are done. “It goes without saying that OVA is not, never has been, and never will be a perfect performance. The job is too utterly tremendous to hope for perfection. But it can accomplish its over-all purpose if the publje as well as the agency stays with the job until it no longer in necessary.” ■■ o First state university is that of North Carolina, celebrating Its 150tb anuiveiwary thM year.

THIS PICTURE of the total eclipse of the sun was taken at 6:14 a, m., July 9, from rugged mountain country known as Beef Trail near Butte, Mont. Totality lasted 25 seconds. Members of the Hayden planetarium made observations from this point. It was the first total eclipse since 1932 that could be seen in the United States and not until 1954 will there be another.

August. Relief foods still will be supplied by the U. S. in its contributions through NUR.RA. American food also will be distributed in Italy by the foreign enocomic administration. Officials said the liberated countries were expected to "shop around" for the cheapest sources of food once the army steps out of the picture. Ae a result, the army’s action is not expected to affect the American food situation. The Allies still are determined not to supply food to Germany, any relief there will be on an absolute minimum scale,” it was said, and under no eircumstanc.es will Germans eat better than in any liberated area.

Assails High Court Railroad Decision Declares Ruling Is Blow To Labor ’Washington, July 12 — (UP) — President A. F. Whitney of the ■Brotherhood of Railroad trainmen said today the recent supreme court decteion in the Elgin. Joliet and Eastern railroad case was "a blow at labor” and threatened all labor-management relationships. The court held 5 to 4 that a certified bargaining representative does not have the exclusive right to represent workers on grievance* or enter into settlements unless specifically authorized by each employe involved. Whitney said in an interview that if the court’s decision holds it will result in endless delays in processing rail workers’ grievances and will cause widespread unrest. iHe said problems raised by the decision will be discussed by railroad president* and labor union chiefs at a meeting next Tuesday in New York City. The Unions have already petitioned the court to rehear the case. Labor, publication for 21 railroad labor organizations, reported that carriers’ representatives on the national railroad adjustment board iiave already informed union members that they will not participate in consideration of grievance cases unless the written authority prescribed by the supreme court i* presented. This board now has 5.500 cases—almost five years’ work —pending and a special presidential aeent attemnting to
