The group of solicitors, all local business and professional men and women, give both their time and money for a most worthy cause. Let's join their efforts and pat the 313,300 drive over the top in a hurry! " .—o o A “Greater Decatur" must start In the mind of each of urn After we are thoroughly convinced that with a little effort, we can continue to show a healthy growth by securing new industry, then we must an buckle down to the task ot making our plans become a reality. The official city of Decatur has taken a stop toward a "Greater Decatur" by setting up the machinery to provide an unlimited amount of electric current and power. The drive for funds with which to purchase a future factory site is past the quarter post. We must not fail. There always will be a few of the chronic dissenters, and generally they are the most demanding in a community. History reveals that there always have been a group of “knockers against progress," since the Bible days to our present civilization.| Fortunately, Decatur has only a few of the “narrow-gauge” type of citizens. Let’s keep driving ahead and if we all shoulder our share of the task, it will be a simple matter. It isn’t hard to sell Decatur, because We bare so much to offer. Are you doing your part to help make “A Greater Decatur." Words seem pretty hollow when a tragedy strikes a community.* David Wiseman, a Junior at Decatur Catholic high school and a son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul

accidentally shot and killed SatWiseman of near Decatur was urday afterisOon. Young David was popular among his many school chums and was regarded as an outstanding student and Christian youth. Death, which is often unexplainable and unscrupulous in its actions has robbed this community of a fine young citizen and has brought sorrow to the Wiseman family and their host of friends. We can only hope that time will ease the sadnees of sudden death and his friends must live with the memories of the fine young man that he was. This newspaper wishes to join their many many friends in offering what earthly sympathy we can to the Wiseman family, and with a sincere hope that the memories of the sixteen years he lived, will some day erase the present heartaches accompanying hit tragic death. o——o Recent news dispatches reveal that the present state highway commission favora a three or four cent increase in the state gasoline tax. This additional money would be used as a matching fund for federal aid tn road construction. Every citizen of Indiana who thinks about progress at all certainly realizes that Indiana needs more money, both for state and federal highway construction and maintenance and also for county highway work. How that money should be raised is another question. It’s the usual action for a group of men to look around for the easiest way of raising a huge sdnief money. But is the increased gasoline tax the proper method of approach? Mayor Ralph Tucker, Democratic candidate for Governor seems to be on the right track. He is not permitting himself to be hastened into any tax committment, He has said repeatedly that our present systems of taxation should be studied before any new tax is added. Maybe the 1957 legislature could find it proper and expedient to take a part of the present 15 cent state tax of each county as a matching fund for federal highway funds or maybe it would be proper to examine the present spending by the state highway body. At any rate, it seems pretty undemocratic to just come forward with a demand that Indiana’s gasoline tax must be raised 20 or 25 percent. That’s quite a raise!

I CHAPTER 25 “VZOITVE been a long time in I coming,** said Kinney. •Tve been walkin* two days," Eklund explained. "The Indians had moved, so 1 left my buggy and one horse and rode the other to find them and have a look. I didn’t want to blunder into trouble." “There’d have been no trouble for you—not with what you had for them " "If trouble was brewing, I wanted to have a look before I delivered anything,** Eklund retorted bluntly. “So! What happened?" "A grizzly came along while I was gone and my cayuse broke loose. In the storm, I couldn’t find it again. When I got back to the buggy, the other horse was gone.” “What about your load?" "I’d cached the rifles already, when I found what they were. The Indians are getting ready for war, Kinney. Maybe they had you fooled. But I’m not runnin* guns to them—not under these conditions.’* Kinney’s tone was mild. "Well, you’ve been there and had a look, and I haven’t," he conceded. “I'll check up. If I find they're kickin’ over the traces, TH know what to do. And if I find that you’re tryin* to pull a fast one, ft won’t go so good fop you, either." That was an, and somehow it was more ominous than a wilder outburst. But' he’d made his position plain, and, tired as he was, Eklund felt as if a heavy weight had been removed, as he crossed to his own cabin. Kinney sat, not moving, eyes half-closed. He knew what his course was to be, yet, oddly enough, he felt a faint regret, and no hurry to go about it His earlier anger had cooled, and Eklund’s forthrightness had impressed him. Most men who hindered him he crushed without compunction or even a second thought Somehow, in this instance, it was different The doc understood perfectly well that he was putting his neck in jeopardy, yet he went ahead without bluff or whine. If he'd tried a double-cross, now, or been righteous or defiant, ft would have been different Somehow you couldn’t get too mad, at a man like him, Kinney was still sitting there when another caller was announced. This man was ostensibly a trapper and prospector, and he came rarely to town. Only two things ever brought him: the need for supplies, or to report to the man who paid Mm wages foe i fifiMsoc Myw* tte hitis and plains

with eyes open and ears on the stretch. Obviously the latter was his reason now. . “The Injuns have moved," he ■aid. “You know what that means!" Kinney nodded. “I knew that" His henchman looked disappointed. "Thought you’d want to know,” he grumbled. "I guess you always do know what’s going on, though, mostly before ft happens.” “I aim to," Kinney agreed. “Yeah. And them havin’ new carbines—you would know, all right" Kinney straightened suddenly. "What’s that?” His spy looked surprised. “Why, nothin’,” he protested. “Only they seem to have about • dozen brand-new rifles —carbines. Plains guns, they looked like to me. I reckoned of course they'd got ’em from you." After he had gone, Kinney pondered. So the guns had been delivered, after alt This put a new light on the whole affair. Eklund was a shrewder customer than he’d given him credit for—but the medico was a chump, as was any man who thought to cheat him out of his share. By the same token, Eklund was cut from the same cloth. Those pretensions to principle, his refusal to deliver the rifles on account of scruples—that was a laugh. Well, tuis news made what he had to do a pleasant chore. Stepping out into the saloon, Kinney looked around. Most of the customers had gone home, and a word to the bartender confirmed that Script Nyman had left early. Which wasn’t to be wondered at What puzzled Kinney was that a man who had sworn off liquor should continue to hang around the saloon. But with Nyman there was nowhere else to go, no other life that he knew. Nyman's early departure suited Kinney. He lifted down several flasks of Whiskey, stuffed* them into his pockets, and went out into the night. presently he knocked at Script Nyman's door and let himself in. There was a sleepy stir, the close smell of a room used for cooking, eating and sleeping, and badly in need ot ventilation. Leaving the door open, Kinney scratched a maMh »nd got the wick of a lamp alight. Nyman was a small man, once neat and precise but badly gone to seed. He sat up in bed now, tousled, in need of a shave, but clear-eyed. “Oh, it’s you, Dolfhe said, with the air of a man past fading surprise at the caprices of the - flnafca afrj

YANKEE HURLER panella popped to Martin. Maglie struck out, the 18th straight batter retired by Larsen. Yankees Sixth Carey singled to center. Larsen bunted and was out, Campanella to Gilliam, covering first. Bauer singled to left, Carey scoring. Collins singled to right, sending Bauer to third. Mantle bounced to Hodges, who stepped on first for the putout and Bauer was then trapped between third and home, Hodges to Campanella to Robinson. One run, three hits, no errors, one left. Dodgers Seventh Gilliam lashed to McDougald, f who threw him out. Reese filed to Mantle. Snider flied to Slaughter. Yankees Seventh The attendance was 64,519. Berra fouled to Robinson. Slaughter filed to Amoros. Martin singled to left. McDougald walked. Carey bounced to Reese, who threw

whiskey and placed them on a rickety table as he shut the door. *Tve brought something for you to drink," he said genially. "Take the stuff away,” Nyman whispered, and urgency made a strident quality in his voice. *1 don’t want it, Dolf—you know what it does to me!” “Sure, 1 know,” Kinney admitted. “That’s why I brought it. I want you drunk. Got a job for you. And good pay. You do this tonight and you get all this whiskey, and fifty dollars cash after you’re sober again.” Script Nyman looked from the face of his visitor to the bottles, and back again. He swung a scrawny leg over the edge of the bunk. “You know I get into trouble every time I do that,” he whined. “You won’t this time,” Kinney promised. “Get to turning it down, man. I’m in a hurry.” Nyman hesitated, reached suddenly and extracted the cork with hi i teeth, tipped the bottle and drank as though the fiery liquid was water. Then he reached for his clothes. ’ „ Kinney watched, pleased. Nyman was nicknamed Script for good reason. Sober, he was a reasonably honest man, and a dull plodder whose handwriting was nothing to get excited about. Drunk, he became a different individual. When thoroughly under the influencc of liquor, he fould study a sample of handwriting, dip his pen in ink, and copy with such amazing accuracy that on numerous occasions he had forged signatures and cashed checks in a dozen eastern states. When sober, he could not do even a passable imitation. Now, as he began on the second bottle, Kinney produced paper and a document which he tendered. “There’s nothing crooked about what you have to do here,” he assured Nyman. “But 1 want a good copy. I got this letter a couple months back —and I want it to say the same thing again, only to have it read,' date and all, like I just got it today. So it’ll be convincin’.” “I’ll fix it so the writer couldn’t tell the difference himself,” Script assured him. Liquored, Nyman was competent and sure. The only trouble was that he was then always too certain of his ability to fool everybody, including the law. “Yem have this fixed by morning,” Kinney instructed. “That’s all I want.” Satisfied, he took his departure. Tomorrow he’.d give the revision to Major Blake,' and that way his story would be plausible. Blake would know Eklund for a deserter, and he'd do the rest,

Factory Testimonial To Physically Handicapped

(Editor’s Note: President Elsenhower has designated this national employ the physirally handicapped week. The following is a story of an unusual way in which tha physically handicapped themeelves are meeting the ohallenge.) CHICAGO (UP) — A neat little factory in the euburds stands as a testimonial to the courage of handicapped workers and the opportunity they found in free enterprise. The Paraplegics Manufacturing Co. is no “sheltered workshop” for the physically handicapped. It’s a profit-making concern in a highly competitive field, and 72 of the 80 stockholders are employes. The workers are honorary members of the International Brotherhood of Electrclal Workers and are paid union scale wages. The unique firm was founded five years ago, not without the problems and headaches encountered by most small businesses, plus some of its own. President and co-founder is Dwight Guilfoil, 33, a father of Six. He was stricken with polio and spinal meningitis in the air force and gets around now in a wheel chair. “If we had been real smart we’d never have started thia operation,” Guiltoil said, smiling. "Because most of the experts said it couldn’t be done. Business friends said we were crazy and social workers told us there were too many special problems.” But the company has thrived, making electronic sub-assemblies for a distinguished clientele that includes Admiral Corp., Argonne National Laboratory, Bell and Howell, Bendix Aviation, Hotpoint, Motorola, Sears Roebuck, StewartWarner and Western Electric. “We don’t get any special consideration.” Guilfoil said. “We have to bid low and meet comSeven Are Arrested On Speeding Charges Seven persons were arrested for speeding Sunday afternoon on North 13th street in Decatur as the result of use of the electric speed timer set up by state and city police.

Based on these re- * a quests, the Tuesday night meeting has been called tor the purpose of determining if a majority desire a separate organisation, the principal said. If those attending the meeting vote to form a new organisation, it is believed likely that temporary officers will be named immediately. All Northweet school patrons are invited to the meeting.
