Winter weather of the severe type is slowly vanishing from the scene and, while our conununity might experience some more cold, accompanied by snow and sleet, spring actually is on the way. Easty bird gardeners are working in their lawns and soon we will see a bud or two on trees. o — You're missing bargains every day if you don't read the Daily Democrat advertisements. Take advantage of these fine offerings of first grade merchandise. Comto pare values with any other store in northern Indiana and you will become a satisfied Decatur shopper. —o Let’s go out now and get an industry for Decatur which will fit into our orderly process of healthy growth. In short order we will have the available power and water and with utilities to offer, what else do we need except the desire to bring to Decatur a manufacturing plant worthy of the offer. o— —o—— This past session of the Indiana General Assembly was strictly a Republican affair. Good measures and bad ones will have to be accepted by the G.0.P., as their babies. There can be no hedging. If the farmer, laborer, school teacher and just ordinary citizen have any complaints, they will have to be singled out against Gov. Handley and his group. People of Indiana by a mammoth majority selected the present administration. . 6 o Hoosier basketball fans are getting closer and closer to that time when a 1957 basketball champion will be named.

The Fort Wayne semi-final should be the best, with four good teams remaining.

Candidate Handley was promising a shaved budget and fair treatment for labor, the farmer, the teacher and in fact, for everybody. About the only one of these groups who can say thanks, it appears, is the state chamber of commerce. • o—o—— Friends and supporters of a new Indiana law wtfich prohibits being a member or non-member of a Union, as being a requisite to securing or holding a job in any Indiana factory, are making a bold effort to have the law be known as “The right to work law.” It is and always will be actually and in practice an “antiunion labor statute” because it is aimed directly at Unions and specifically deals with Unions. The new law, which most organized labor adherents claim will virtually destroy Unions, bans the requirement of either being a member or non-member. It doesn’t ban a workman from being a Communist, or a member of the state chamber of commerce or an Eagle or an Elk—lt just bans membership in a Union as a requisite to getting or holding a job. Now wouldn’t you call that an anti-Union statute? ——o o•— The sudden death of Robert Macklin, prominent Decatur business man, associated with his brothers Wendell and Richard Macklin in the operation of the PhiJ Macklin Company, ChryslerPlymouth and Willys Dealers, has brought sadness to our community. The young Decatur man, at the yery midst of a life divided between his business, his home, his church, his civic and lodge activities died at his home on Winchester street following a heart attack. He suffered a first attack several months ago and after a period of recuperation at home, he returned to his duties at the Macklin garage. Mr. Macklin was active in the Masonic lodge here and the Scottish Rite and Shrine at Fort Wayne. He held numerous offices in the First Presbyterian church, where he also was a member of the choir of that church. • Mr. Macklin’s death will leave an emptiness in our community which will not be easy to fill. We want to extend our sympathy to Mrs. Macklin and all of the Macklin family, knowing that the life he led will be a long time example for others to follow who are seeking the good things in life.

Time Bill Is Signed By Governor Handley Measure Designed For Uniform Time INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Governor Handley signed into Indiana law Monday night a bill designed to restore uniform time next month to a state plagued by a patchwork of confusing clock schedules the last few years. Handley’s signature on the bill meant that, beginning April 28, all clocks in Hoosierland will be placed on a uniform daylight saving time schedule and stay that way until the last Sunday in September. When the September date arrives, all clocks will be turned back to Central Standard Time and stay that way until the following April. Handley signed a bill passed by the Legislature calling for 7 months of “slow” and five months of “fast” time as a compromise to a long fight over the time issue. At present, a zigzag line running roughly down the center of the state divides Indiana into a CST zone to the west arid a DST zone to the east. It was the first time bill enacted by the Legislature since 1949, when lawmakers decreed a Central Standard Time schedule the year around but provided no penalties for violators. The law was promptly and widely circumvented. The new time law, however, has sharp teeth. Officials of local governmental units which ignore the can be fined and sentenced to jail. Furthermore, the state can deprive violating communities of state fund distribution checks. Laurent Speaks On Job Opportunities 9 The members of the senior class at Detatur high school heard a talk on “Job Opportunities” presented Monday afternoon by George F. Laurent, personnel manager of the local General Electric plant. His talk is one of a series by local personnel men planned as a part of the guidance program for high school seniors. Laurent also appeared before the seniors at Decatur Catholic hjgh school this afternoon, speaking on the same subject. ,

Democrats Seek To Query Ike On Budget Cut G.O.P. Denounces Democrat Move As Partisan Measure WASHINGTON «P> — Democrats hoped to ram through the Housetoday an unprecedented resolution asking President Eisenhower where and how much his budget can be cut. The outnumbered Republicans fought to defeat the resolution. They denounced it as a partisan maneuver. But the Democrats said the President should be glad to tell Congress of any cuts that might' be made in the record $71.8 billion peacetime budget. Moreover, they felt the resolution would dramatize that the President — not Congress — drew up the big spending program. The resolution appealed for “substantialcuts.” At least one Democrat — Rules Committee Chairman Howard W. Smith (Va.i — indicated misgivings* about the resolution. Smith, a strong economy advocate, said he didn’t favor anything that "would take the monkey off Congress' back.” Other Congressional news: Schools: Secretary of Education Marion B. Folsom prepared to present to Congress, his case for the administration’s $1.3 billion school construction program. A House Education subcommittee summoned Folsom as its last witness in hearings on the proposed legislation. Civil Rights: The House Judiciary Committee called a closeddoor meeting to discuss the administration’s amended c'ivil rights program. A new dispute over investigating religious discrimination threatened to delay a committee vote. However, program backers felt confident of winning approval for the program by the end of the week. Information: The House Information subcommittee sought more details- of a Pentagon proposal" to create a “czar” to remove secrecy labels from confidential military documents. The "czar” was proposed by the Pentagon’s Coolidge Cbmmittee after studying Defense Department information policies. Girl Scout News Troop 10 met at the Northwest school Monday.
