the president’s budget for fiscal 1949 a surplus of $4,800,000,000 would be available for reduction of the national debt. This debt must be reduced in the good years. Snyder said, because there may be leap years w’hen no payments can be made. Snyder's statement pressed at these points: 1. The house bill would result in a deficit of $2.2 billion in fiscal 1949 instead of a surplus of $4.8 billion.

2. The bill would not encourage business to expand and spur production as argued. Tax reduction is certain to raise prices, he said, by increasing competition for limited supplies. 3. The bill doesn’t give adequate relief to lower income groups. The president’s program, he said, would free 10.3 million persons and the house bill only 6.3 million. 4. Income taxes are equalized with community property states at the “cost of substantial revenue.” It does not equalize estate and gift taxes. o Portland Man Found Guilty Os Murder Portland, Ind.. March 1 —(UP)—t Judge Joseph Davis of Delaware circuit court said today he would delay sentencing of William Henry Lykins, found guilty of murder Saturday, for 30 days pending a motion for a new trial by the defense.

Schurger in Adams circuit court Saturday, upon motion of the plaintiff. A suit on account has been filed by Himelstein Bros, against Cyril E. Dunlap. The demand is $275. S. K.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

March Greeted By Clear, Crisp Dawn Decaturites Turn To The Old Axiom “Like a lamb —” Everyone is agreed that’s the way "March came in,’’ so if there’s any truth to the old axiom the month will “go out like a lion.’’ A sunny and clear, crisp dawn greeted Decaturites today and there was little question but that the advent of the new month occurred in quiet manner, insofar as the weather was concerned. Temperatures were quite a bit lower than those prevalent the past several days with mercury in local thermometers below the freezing mark. The Daily Democrat thermometer registered 26 degrees above at 8 a..m. High velocity winds during the end of last week had led local residents to expect a stormy entrance of the new month, but the winds subsided and cooler - temperatures took their place. No great change in temperature was seen by the weatherman in his early morning fordcast. OSOUTHERN REVOLT (Continued from Paire 11 this year. Things were not rosy, but they weren’t black. Four weeks ago today Mr. Truman sent his civil rights program to congress. He asked the lawmakers to outlaw the poll tax and lynching, to abolish discrimination in employment and forbid segregation in interstate transportation. The south exploded in protest. A fortnight later Wallace’s third party won a congressional by-elec-tion in a New York Democratic stronghold. Mr. Truman's civil rights message to congress could not have been more perfectly »timed for trouble. Shortly after it was delivered a long scheduled conference of southern governors met in Florida and became the center of protest against the President. The southern governors will meet again on March 13. They sent a protest committee last week to chairman J. Howard McGrath of the Democratic national committee. He rejected their appeal that the civil rights program be withdrawn. The March 13 meeting here will be to permit the committee Jtg report to the conference. The governors presumably will see Mr./Triipnan and, if so, he will hear soiqe hard words.

( 80-Year-Old Lady’s Rheumatic Pains Go! She Praises Tru-Aid Recently an 80-year-old lady living near here stated that she almost suffered death with rheumatic pains in her whole right side. When she tried to walk she would simply flinch with agony and says she had become just a “bundle ot nerves” due to her long period of suffering. She bought all kinds of medicines but nothing seemed to work on her until she got TRU-ATD. She states she was amazed at the results when she got this medicine. Now r the rheumatic pains have gone from her entire right side. She can walk without suffering for the first time in years and says her nerves are “strong as steel.” She feels like a new woman. TRU-AID is the new liquid formula containing three valuable medical ingredients. These Three Great Medicines, all blended into one go right to the very cause of rheumatic and neuritis aches and pains. Miserable people soon feel different all over. So don t go on | suffering Get.

that the company might be able to raise wages “a few cents” an hbur without pushing up prices. At that time he pleaded for wage stability to stabilize prices. o SAYS POLITICS (Continued from Page 1) to carry on its elections, provided they are fair and give everybody the right to express his opinion at the polls. The president added that he thought Tucks's suggestion seemed like an effort to return to the pUn of pre-1836 when membens of the electoral college were uninstructed. The president said that in 1836 the system was changed so that electors were instructed by voters. Mr. Truman remarked that maybe Virginia was trying to get back to the old constitutional system, which as the president remembered from history did not work very well. Most of the press conference talk involved domestic politics despite Mr. Truman’s insistence that he had

been too busy with the government's business to give much thought of his own 1948 plans.
