It’s good to learn that the independent Indianapolis Times has included Severin Schurger in its list of recommendations of candidates of both parties for the appellate court. Adams county can be proud of Severin, who represents us on the state Democratic ticket ■ ■■ The professional pollsters, who elected Tom Dewey president the year the people elected Harry Truman, have this year chosen Republican Dwight Eisenhower, while the people in states from Maine to the territory of Alaska, have chosen Democrats. We would rather have the people on our team than the professionals who are inclined to give the close ones to their friends. o— —o County Democratic candidates deserve your fullest support They have campaigned diligently. Their platform is not ope of promises, but one based on the record of Democrats in county office before. The only promise being circulated is that the Democratic candidates will maintain the high degree of service and at lowered tax rates. Adams county and the Democratic city administration are rarities in these times, having effected tower tax rates this year. ■ ■ Or.— uO <»<.■■■. Dean Bechtol, Democratic candidate for congressman for the fourth district, deserves your support, because he has urged a reexamination of the policies of the last four years, which have brought the country to the brink of war four times, reduced the income of farmers and given federal tax relief only to the large corporations. He has called for actum on Adlai Stevenson’s demand for the end of H-bomb testing and a method of improving working conditions for American military personnel toward the end that re-enlistments could make a peace time draft unnecessary. o——o Election campaigns today ''are efficient, short and to the point with the widest use made of ra-

dio and television. More people probably get to see or hear the candidates and perhaps vote with more consideration and less emotion. But still some of us miss the old days of the flowery campaign oratory and torch light parades. We wonder what happened to the old rooster which used to head all of the Democratic parades in Decatur. For that matter what happened to the old timers who used to carry the rooster on their shoulders in the parades? O——O—— Priests, ministers, and a former governor, all of whom have worked with him, have recommended Ralph Tucker, mayor of Terre Haute, and Democratic candidate for governor, Said the Rt. Rev. Msgr. Winterhalter, Dean of the Terre Haute deanery: “I have known Mayor Tucker for 10 years. Aad those who do know him, respect him and love him as an administrator.'* Said the Rev. M. E. Hord, pastor of the Second Baptist church in Texre Haute: “I have known Mayor Tucker about four years that I have been here. He is very conscientious. The fact that he has been elected many times bears evidence that he is a good mayor and sound administrator.” The Rev. Ted Groeb, pastor of the Calvary Methodist church and director of Good Will Industries said: *T have lived in Terre Haute for the last 33 years. The West End was a rather difficult part of the city. I felt sorry for the little children and many times I complained to the officials of the city. But what a difference there is today. The last seven or eight years the West End has absolutely changed. We have had wonderful cooperation from the city officials and from the mayor. And if anybody knows, 1 should.” Former Governor Henry F. Schricker said: •*I am proud of the record Mayor Tucker has made in Terre Haute.” Conservation leaders have endorsed Mayor Tucker because of his promise to restore to free circulation the nature magazine “Outdoor Indiana,” clean up the conservation-depart-ment by a policy of encouraging its educational program, rather than turning it into a political school.

O i Household Scrapbook | BY ROBERTA LEE O —O Electric Lights The electirc light bill will be far less if the lights are turned off when leaving a room. Also try using different sizes of bulbs. Use a larger size for the reading light and a smaller one if the light is just for effect. Walls and Woodwork Walls and delcicate woodwork may be washed with water, white soap, and a lettle ammonia added to the water. Be sure to change the water as soon as it becomes dirty.

After Campaigning Eisenhower Tired Georgia Vacation Held In Abeyance WASHINGTON (UP) — Backstairs at the White House: Although the White House says' Mr. Eisenhower won’t rush off on a post-election vacation as soon: as the votes are counted, the fact still remains that the President, as would be expected, is tired after his campaign and long hours on the Middle East and Central Europe crises. He had planned-before the blow up over Suez —to leave Washington a day or two after the election for his favorite resort, the Augusta (Ga.) National Golf Club. The Augusta trip is now in abeyance, but not for too tong if the international situation grows no worse. The President will not spend a long time in Augusta and intends to be at the White House or Gettysburg for Thanksgiving. The long distance operator's voice had a silky southern drawl as she said to the man on the Washington end of the call, “Please say something to this man I have on here. He’s been trying to talk to President Eisenhower all evening and Iwant to get rid of him.” Somewhat bewildered, the map in Washington agreed. From down South came the voice of a man who sounded like a testimonial for double juleps. “Shee here, I wanna talk to President Eisenhower,” he said. "Well, sir, it is rather late,” said the man .in Washington. “The President has been working 18 to 20 hours a day and he’s gone to bed. I don’t believe we’d better disturb him.” ““Gimme Jim Hagerty then. Dammit, I’m a Democrat and I got somethin’ to say.” ' “Hagerty’s been working even longer hours and he’s gone to bed, too.” The southern caller trailed off unintelligibly and the honey-voiced operator cut back on die line to Washington. i "I do appreciate that, suh, ” she said. “Good night.” The man in Washington hung up puzzled, but with a certain sense of pride because rarely, if ever, does he have the opportunity to guard the sleep of a President. All of which is to be expected because the man in Washington was a late night editor of the United Press who was otherwise thoroughly busy with war bulletins from Suez.
