Indiana University, by virtue of its winning the conference title, will represent the Big Ten in the NCAA play-offs. We are sure that Branch McCracken’s men will give a good accounting of themselves. ■ "O o Several major league baseball games already have been broadcast, and about every afternoon now you’ll hear the old familiar “play ball” and in a few weeks the regular season will start again. o o We’re pretty proud of Adams county’s Berne-French basketball team. The Bears got to the finals of the Regional and fell to the bombardment of the strong South Side team regarded by some as one of the half dozen best in Indiana. They put up a good scrap and succumbed only after giving the Archers a scare. ——o o— Eight or ten G.O.P. Senators have joined their Democratic colleagues in urging the administration to get busy in correcting the depression or at least making an honest effort to do so. We have dilly-dallied along now for several months and all we get is words and promises from the President. Encouragement is wonderful, but with more than five million workers unemployed these people can not live on promises. They and their families want action and immediately. o o We can t remember when the berms along the highways were ever dirtier. This includes both county and state highways. Almost every road is littered with beer cans, bottles and even sacks of garbage. Remember a few years ago when a new statute was passed to make it illegal to throw rubbish along the highways. The law was enforced for a few weeks and then suddenly, the same thing happened which happens to many of our good laws, enforcement fell off to nothing. As a result, you can drive along almost any. roadway now and see hundreds of cans and bottles strewn along. | It is not only unsightly but most unhealthy. Can’t we get some action?

Next week end's semi-final basketball tourney at Fort Wayne should be a good one. o. -o Let’s hope that the week will bring us a decision by the administration to start some things rolling to stop the depression. If we don’t get some quick action, ty may be too late and we’ll be in another Hoover panic before we can stop and right now that would be near fatal. ——<o o— — Solutions to some problems can be delayed for long periods of time without any great harm being done. But other problems are of an urgent, nature, and demand immediate action if the public interest is to be served. That is the case in the railroad problem—which is characterized by declining traffic and grossly inadequate earnings. Senator Smathers of Florida is chairman of the Senate Surface Transportation Subcommittee, which has held thorough hearings on the 'ferim railroad situation. And the Senator, according to an International News Service writer, has "flatly predicted that railroads will vanish from the American scene within three years, unless Congress takes drastic action at this session." Senator Smathers may or may not be in error as to the exact time factor. But there can be no dought that, in principle, he is 100 per Cent correct. And the main trouble, according to the top experts, lies in excessive, onerous and obsolete government laws and regulations which .prevent the rails from making the most of their inherent advantages in competing for business, and which, jimong other things, force them to operate passenger trains almost no one rides, and which, pile up staggering deficits. On top of that, the othef domestic carriers, on land, air and inland waterways, are all subsidized by government in one way Or another, while the railroads must pay their own way in every particular. Senator Smathers' warning should stir Congress to swift action. We simply cannot do without railroads.

More Snowfall In Midwest, Plains Some Rural Schools Are Forced To Close By UNITED PRESS The lower Midwest and the Plains states got another dose of March snows, boosting accumulations of old and new snow in parts of western Kansas to more than a foot today. The storm also dropped an additional two inches of snow in the St. Louis, Mo., area Monday night to bring the total snow depth there to seven inches. A one to two-inch snow cover spread into west central Illinois during the night, and weathermen said snow flurries were' expected today along the Ohio Valley and the central Mississippi Valley. A high pressure center in the Great Lakes region prevented the snow from pushing northward into its usual haunts, although a few flurries occurred in the Lower Lakes region Monday night. Monday s heavy snow fell from the western Dakotas and western Nebraska through Kansas and into Missouri. Some rural schools in the snow band were closed, but mild temperatures prevented highways from becoming snow-packed. Light snow and snow flurries continued during the night from Montana south through Colorado and east through the middle Mississippi Valley. A weak disturbance moved intb southern California Monday night, bringing an unusual outbreak of showers and thunderstorms to the desert section. Forecasters predicted the showers, and thunderstorms will continue today from the desert of southern California

through Arizona and New Mexico Elsewhere, skies were generally partly cloudy and little change in temperature) was noted. Overnight readings ranged from the 20s in the northern Plains to the 50s along the Gulf Coast. Wig Tax CHICAGO — an — Wigs and toupees are considered coametics for Pennsylvania sales tax pur-
