The only thing which has shown an increase in the last few months of the Eisenhower administration is unemployment, and still they dilly-dally around like it’s just a .matter of course. o o There will be three good basketball games in the Fort Wayne super-regional and after these games, we’ll still have the state finals in another week. Then will come baseball. o—o It’s easy tor professional people and those with a good salary to hush-hush the depression by saying we’ll work out of it alright. But those who are suffering from lack of food and warmth, of which there are millions won’t agree. o o Another touch of winter has visited us this week and while -.we hope that spring will be here soon, there are still several weeks which could be pretty rugged. Some few people have planted grass seed and even have started their spring diggin, but it Is plenty early and lots of it may have to be redone. o o Vice President Nixon has come forward with the Democratic policy of six weeks or more ago, to reduce taxes, as a first effort to curtail the depression. No one knows whether the plan would work, but most anything is worth a try. If tax cutting doesn’t wdrk, then we should try something else. —_o o _ We are going to make an unbiased effort to get all the iniorr mation possible on the worth of the Decatur light plant. Os course figures will vary on whether you are a buyer or seller, but some where along the line we should fait a happy medium. Personally we think right now that the price offered is not nearly enough. It may be though and our only interest is to get the people what the true value is and when they decide that selling out is the thing to do. Remember, it is our plant and the final decision is up to us.

Watch the Daily Democrat advertisements in the next few days for Decatur’s annual spring opening. The usual circulation of the entire county will be mailed out and hundreds of shoppers will be on hand to get their spring needs. Compare prices and you’ll make Decatur your permanent shopping center. o o Vandals who did thousands of dollars damage to Marion county’s newest and most modern school are still at large and no one yet knows why this particular school was singled out for the costly destruction. More than 150 parents and police were chased out of the school when an anonymous phone call said a bomb was to be released. The threat failed to materialize and the investigation will continue. Vandalism in the middle west among children of high school age continues to flourish and teachers get little ’ a , help from many of the parents. o—o It’s a good bit of a task, but Dale Morrissey and Dr. Ralph Allison are doing a good job in lining up the retailers in the Chamber of Commerce and indications are that a big majority of the Decatur merchants have unbounded faith in Decatur and its growth. Several other northern Indiana Chambers have sent representatives to Decatur to ascertain our membership system and also to discover just what brings Decatur so much of the retail business of thisarea. Answer always is the same. We have fewer dissenters than merchants in similar sized cities and while we have some differences we get them ironed out quickly so the regular process of serving the public is not injured. We are fortunate to - have the type of merchants here and the shoppers of the area appreciate this fact. They know that the merchandise will be as advertised and they know they will get just what they bargain for. Trade in Decatur and watch your shopping dollars go farther.

Price Supports Set On 1958 Grain Crops , Reflect 70 Per Cent I Os February Parity Price supports for the 1958 crop of oats, barley, rye and grain sor- j ghums have been set at levels reflecting 70 per cent of February parity prices, according to Burl Johnson, chairman, Adams county agricultural stabilization and conservation committee. Supports fpr the 1957 crops of the four grains were also at 70 per cent of parity. The national average dollars-and-cents supports for 1958 are: oats, 61c per bushel for grade No. 3; barley, 93c per bushel for grade No. 3; rye, sl.lO per bushel for grade No. 2 or better, or No. 3 on test weight only; grain sorghums, 1 $1.83 per hundredweight for grade No. 2 or better (except mixed ; grain sorghums.) Local county rates will be announced later. For 1957 crops of the four grains, the national average support prices were 95c per bushel for barley, $1.86 per hundredweight for grain sorghums, 61c per bushel for oats, and sl.lß per bushel for rye. Chairman Johnson explained that price-support eligibility requirements and operating provisions will be substantially the same for these four 1958 grain crops as they were for the same crops in 1957. Support will be carried out through commodity credit corporation loans on farm-and-warehouse-stores grains and by purchase agreements. These will be available through the county ASC office from harvest time through January 31, 1959 The Hands Grease and dirt will be much easier to remove from the hands if a little sugar is added to the soap lather, and the hands will be soft and white. Keep sugar for this purpose in a convenient place in a tin can with perforated top. — Trade in a goocr town — Decatur'

Half-Day Sessions To Van Wert Pupils Van Wert, 0., school authorities announced Tuesday that 257 first grade 1 pupils in four elementary schools in that city will attend halfday sessions next year. School authorities figure that it would take 10 rented rooms to house the surplus kindergarten and first grade pupils in their schools system. Secretary Os Labor Favors Tax Slash Best Solution For Current Recession CHICAGO (UP) — Labor Secretary James P. Mitchell said Tuesday night a tax cut rather than an expanded public works program is the best solution to the nation’s current recession. He said the Eisenhower administration is prepared to recommend a tax reduction “when and if it is necessary to do so." Mitchell refused to speculate on the size or form of such a tax cut. “A tax cut would certainly be the stimulant needed,” if business and employment fail to recover after mid-March, he said. At a news conference, Mitchell opposed an increased public .works program, as proposed by leaders in the Democratic and Republican parties, because it could not put men to work at once to meet the immediae economic crisis. “We need a program that would put money back in the hands of the consumer,” Mitchell said. In a speech later before the National Wholesale Grocers Assn., convention, Mitchell urged an extension of the reciprocal trade agreements act to help fight communism. “The future of free world trade is at stake in Congress at this moment,” he said. "The five-year extension of the reciprocal trade program is absolutely essential to the continuation of the movement for trade liberalization in the free world.”

Household Scrapbook BY ROIKRTA Lll O — Spinach Spinach will be cleaned more readily by using hot water instead of cold. Wash the spinach first in hot water, then rinse it with cold. Health In the home where gas stove or oil stoves are used, a pan of water should be kept filled on top or very close to each stove, to purify the air.
