These peoples hear* B were full of sorrow over the loss of their little bqy. How do you think they felt when they saw what had happened? My grief was as bad as theirs. On Sunday morning I Went to Decatur cemetery to put flowers on my soldier boy’s grave. He was a soldier in World War 1. What did I find? A road had been made across his burial Jot; grass was nearly all gone; what a sorry sight it was. 1 never shed any more tears at his funeral than I shed out there.; God pity anyone that has such little | respect for the dead and our boys being killed by the thousands to make a safe place for you <and I to live in. Think this over. ’ As I went a few stepsi further I saw where someone had broken the glass on two of the markers at two of my oldtime friends graves. Who could have been hardhearted enough tp do» this thing? This practice of making a driveway over our boys lots has hot to be stopped. , > . Mrs. Louise Harvej ■ f ’ Decatur, Ind. 'S''''' The Fipht Against Crime " All of you no doubt learned through the radio and television pf .the activities of the Kefauver Committee ip its investigation into cr.me. While these proceedings ha,ve brought to light just p brief glimpse into the organized criminal activity beiijg condijhted -in this country, that glimpse has been shocking and scandalous to the people of America. ■,' 9 -f, You seen people parade before this committee, many of wboni undoubtedly are responsilile-’for the disgraceful conditions that exist today. Now that we have first band knowledge of jus|t how fhr ! j this lawlessness has gone, the people of this country are crying ’put for leadership that will quickly correct many of these evils. We are fortunate indeed (to still have some legislative representatives who have a patriotic dnd sincere desire to ke|ep this - country clean. Although many of us have been apathetic selfish and disinterested in \ what goes on behinn the scenes? we now have the facts before us and should take steps to acquaint .these representatives with our feelings. \ Put don’t stop there. You and the members of your family should take action in your own hornd town by starting a cleanup campaign of deplorable Vrindition through local sources. This can be done in several ways, such as asking the leader of your church, civic organization, political association, school principal, mayor, local insurance association and. political representatives, state and national, to report to the people in your community exactly what (they are doing about cleaning pp the evils that have brought to light. Your local newspaper can be au effective wea-
