Plan right now to attend some Church tomorrow. Decatur Churches offer all of us a Sunday morning hour of worship which is an excellent way to start our week’s work. 0 o County taxpayers have today and Monday to pay their spring installment, without penalty. Treasurer Waldo Neal said that his office would remain open this afternoon for late comers. 0 0 Chicago Federal Reserve Bank reports that while the nation is still in the midst of record prosperity, more than seventy labor centers of the United States report heavy unemployment. Most of the unemployment is due to the automotive and related industry cut-backs of recent weeks. 0 0John H. Heller, long time Publisher of the Daily Democrat, who has been confined to his home with illness since last December 23 celebrated his eighty-third birthday Friday by taking an automobile ride to the office of county clerk Richard Lewton to cast his vote. Publisher Heller has never missed casting his vote since he was of legal age. To say that we miss him here at the Democrat office, would be putting it mildly. q 0 - Election inspectors today picked up their supplies for next Tuesday’s primary elections. If you are interested in the county results next Tuesday, call tele--4 phone number 3-2171. This telephone, operated by Citlsens Telephone Co. and the Daily Democrat will give the latest results of the contests all night long.

There will be lots or automobiles on the highways over this week-end. Don’t be in such a hurry, if youplan to drive, that you forget there are millions of others sharing the roads. Slow down just a little bit and live a lot longer. 0 0 Numerous state groups already are flooding the mail endorsing an increase in state gasoline tax. Action would be necessary by the 1957 Indlafia General Assembly. Letters point out that there is one state which has a three cent tax and Indiana is one of four states with a four cent tax. All other state taxes are higher. If the money is actually needed and would actually go to county and state roads and city streets, it might be proper to increase the tax. However, shouldn’t we first insist that the money now derived from the present tax, be spent entirely on road construction and repair? A goodly part of it now goes to salaries. 0 0 The first quarter reports of Decatur’s two utilities, the power and light department and the water department are gratifying to officials of the Cole administration and also to the public in general because they both show ■ w healthy profit and a percentage gain when compared with the same quarter of 1955. A big gain in profit was made in personnel reduction. While wages in both utilities Were adjusted upward, a cut-back in unnecessary personnel made a big difference. Supervision and engineering cost at the diesel plant was reduced over percent and many other sensible economies were put in operation. If the present Administration i continues such a program it will establish a great and enviable record. »
