Mr. Ziner has made an outstanding district head and indications are that he can go far in the Rotary organization if he cares to.

If you’re taking a trip this week-end be sure your car is in good condition for possible changes in the weather. —o—o Coldest weather of the winter is starting to moderate and warmer temperatures are predicted for the next several days. This is the earliest in several years that we have had near zero weather this early in the winter. —-o o The civic record of Louis Jacobs is such over a period of years that it is ample proof that he will make an excellent president of the Chamber of Commerce. A leader in church, civic and business affairs for many years, the prominent and popular Decatur druggist should have a great year as head of the Chamber. He is able and a hard worker and his officers are all experienced business tnen and industrial lists. Decatur should and no doubt will get things done this next year. —-o o M. J. Pryor, manager of Northern Indiana Public Service Co. in Decatur and chairman of the annual Community fund drive here did a great job. The fund is over its quota and still money is coming in. Pryor and his entire committee worked tirelessly and got the job done. Most of the solicitors and most of those solicited believe that all worthy organizations should come under the fund and it would cut out lots of duplicated work. Let's give it a try apd insist that all groups which depend on solicitations come under the one fund.

A & P Employes To Share Distribution Employes of the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea company throughout the country will share more than $2,500,000 in pre-holiday compensation this year, it was announced today by Ralph w. Burger, president of tne food chain. Every employe with as much as six months* service will receive a part of the annual fund voted by the company’s board of directors. Distribution was scheduled for today. BROWN D vatlnued from Page Ona) a fair wage for his labor. Prices, farm or otherwise, are largely determined by government action of one type or another, he pointed out. “Fair returns” are guaranteed electric, gas. telephone companies through public service commissions of one type or another; freight rates are set by the Interstate commerce commission to guarantee a profit to railroads; gas and oil are strictly regulated by government-organized controls to keep prices up and’production down; wages are kept up for workers by minimum wage acts; prices are set for almost all retail goods by so-called “fair trade laws," even banks are protected by the FDIC. “All these have worked out very well for the industries concerned and for the American people. Why won’t the same thing work for farmers?” Raber asked. He explained that farmers ask for Slothing more than that which is already guaranteed to practieally every other segment of American life. “What has Farmer’s Union done in Indiana, specifically, to help farmers?” he then asked. He explained how he alone, of all groups in the state, had appeared before the PSC to oppose a raise in electric rates by the Public Service company a few years ago. The PSC refused the raise which was expected to go through without a hitch, because.Raber pointed out that the year before it had made the largest profit in its history, returned the largest dividends, had the largest reserve fund, and yet was asking for a substantial increase. The company then took the matter to a circuit court, where Raber could not appear because he is not a lawyer, and put the increase through, but Raber appeared on behalf of farmers, when the commission had to decide who would get the increase, and the farmers were assessed for no increase whatsoever, rather than the 35 cents per month planned. The Farmer’s Union now has before the Indiana supreme court a .case, to testthe constitutionality of assessing and taxing a farmer’s

grain which he has stored under the CCC program,, The Farmer’s union, he continued, stands for the family farm, and feels that those who say they represent farmers, but are not defending the farmer in his present struggle, are betraying the farmer’s true interest. He pointed out that because the Farmer’s Union could not survive oh just its SS a year membership and still wage a fight for the farmer, that the organization had organized an insurance company for casualty and life, which matched that offered to farmers by any organization. He then pointed out some of the duties of the local organization, and how it should organize. Raber explained that he is a member of the 11-man board that plans the farm census of 1960, and that he is the only farmer on the board. He stated that through his efforts a survey of net farm income, rather than gross income, will be attempted for the first time. A study of net income to farmers shows that they receive very little compared with other groups. Two elections were actually held during the meeting for president. Burl Johnson was elected over Martin Moeschberger on one ballot. It was then learned that Johnson, who is chairman of the county
