The Democrats of Indiana won a stunning victory, carrying the state for U. S. senator by more than 200,000 votes, sweeping out many incumbent Republican congressmen, winning the state house of representatives for the first time since 1948, and riicking the GOP margin in the state senate. ——o o What can be expected from the newly elected U. S. Senator. R. Vance Hartke? An intelligent man, active and ever ready to serve his fellow man, Hartke can be expected to side with the northern Democrat >nd propose measures o’ ' assist American u. iu .. o useful lives. —o o Our congratulations to Judge G. Remy Bierly, who will take office as appellate court judge early next year. Judge Bierly is well known in Adams county although not a native here, and served as state representative,county clerk, and prosecuting attorney. He campaigned hard and long this summer and fall, and has earned his victory. o o - The friends bf W. Robert Fleming were sick to see the small majority which he ran up in this county, having hoped that he would register at least a 1,000 majority. From South Monroe on towards Jay county Fleming did not do well, although he carried the Decatur area very strongly. o o Now the election is finally over, a happy time for many, a sad time for a few. The trust of the American people has plainly but pla red on the shoulders of the Democratic party. The party must now strive to warrant this trust. The next few years must be j’ears of hard work to help make America better. o o John Raber, head of the Indiana Farmers Union, has asked that Earl Butz resign as dean of

agriculture of Purdue university. Raber requested this on behalf of the farmers of the state who' daily receive many warnings from Purdue university. It was recently learned that, Butz has accepted a directorship with Ralston Purina Co., of St. Louis, Mo., for $6,000 a year. In view of the vertical activities of the St. Louis feed firpi, Butz now has a conflict of interests totally unacceptable to the Indiana farmers, Rat.. s:ys. — o A report covering the net income tax has just been published by the Indiana commission on state tax and financing policy. This report states that a net income tax would impair the stability of local and state revenue since tax collections would be lower when more money was actually needed, during titnes of liepression; Indiana would have to adopt the highest net income rates in the United States to raise the same amount of money by this tax as by present means; the high progressive rates necessary to derive adequate revenue would deter business from entering the state; the shift of tax-raising from local to state governments would decrease local autonomy; the formula for distribution would be subject to the biennial whims of the legislature; there arc questions of whether greater equity would be established or not. These are the reasons that the commission advised the next legislature against the net income tax. Some of th? reasons appear to be valid, and some, at least on the surface, do not. Certainly a more liberal committee might have done a little better job of looking at both sides of the coin of property and income taxation. Our present system of taxation is not suitable for a country which is largely made up of corporate structures, and where most wealth is concentrated in corporate activity.

Knowland Defeated In California Vote Pat Brown Winner In Governor Race SAN FRANCISCO <Ut¥j— California hailed Democrat Edmund G. (Pat) Brown, a genial 53-year-old Irish Catholic, as its governorelect today after dealing a death blow to)the political career of Republican Sen. William Fife Enowland. Both Knowland, the GOP leader in the Senate, and the issue he 1 fought so hard for—right-to-work—-went down to defeat in Tuesday’s election. The right - to - work proposal, which would have outlawed the union shop, lost by a ratio of about, 5 to 2. Knowland fell by a margin which may approach one million votes when final returns from the state's 26,896 precincts are in. Another Republican stalwart wertt down to defeat when Republican Gov. Goodwin J. Knight, 61, lost to Democratic Congressman Clair Engle, 46, in their battle for! a six-year term in the U.S. Senate. Returns from 11,730 precincts: gave for governor: Brown 761,504, Knowland 466,204, for senator, 11,662 precincts: Engle 643,134, Knight 488,837; right to work. 11,124 precincts: Yes 344,092, no 579,192. For Knowland. 50, defeat meant the end of a 25 year career in public office. The senator said he intended to return to Oakland to. take up his duties as assistant publisher of the Oakland Tribune and said he did not expect again to seek elective office. Asked if he had been offered a federal post by President Eisenhower, Knowland told reporters, “Absolutely not. I am looking forward to returning to my family business and my family. Republican Congressman Patrick J. Hillings, close personal friend and political ally of Vice President Richard M. Nixon, lost his bid to become the state’s attorney general when he was defeated by Superior Judge Stanley Mosk of Los Angeles. Brown’s victory meant a return to the statehouse for the Democratic Party for the first time in 16 years and it shoved 1 Brown into the natyxial spotlight as a potential contender for a place on the national ticket in 1960 or 1964 although he pledged before the electio he intended to I serve a full four-year term as 1 governor. I In addition to the right-to-work ■ measure, two other controversial I issues went down to defeat in an election which attracted the greatest turnout for a non-presidential vear in the state’s history. A measure to repeal the property tax, exemption for parochial and private schools was soundly beaten as was a labor-backed to cut the state sales tax but boost high-bracket income taxe. entire county (Conjtinuyh trom_Tagg_££2> 4.889 to 3,847, The Democrats will have the coveted left place on the ballot for the city election next year, and for the presidential election of 1960, because Democrat John R Walsh, of Anderson, won the office of secretary of state. Walsh also carried Adams county, so that the Democratic precinct committeemen will appoint the inspectors in the city and presidential elections of 1959 and 1960. R Vance Hartke and G. Remy Bierly dueled for the biggest plurality on the state ticket over their opponents, and Bierly finally won. by 2,357 over incumbent judge John W. Pfaff, of South Bend. 5,567 to 3.210. Hartke carried Adams county by 2.353 votes, 5.639 to 3.286. Other state margins were: secretary of state, Democrat John R. Walsh 5,156 over Republican incumbent Frank A. Leaning 3,430: Albert A. Steinwedel over Republican incumbent auditor Roy T. Combs; Jack A. Haymaker, 5,117 over Adolph L. Fossler, 3,372 for treasurer of state; William E. Wilson, Democrat, over Wilbur Young, intendent of public instruction; Republican incumbent, for superAlice C Cacanaugh. Democrat, iver Mabel E. Lyons, Republican incumbent clerk of the supreme and appellate courts. John R. Ax and Walter Myers. Jr., won as judges of the appellate court, first district, over Republicans James A. Emmert and Donald E- Bowen, long-time incumbents, by polls of 5,090 and 1,963 over 3.387 and 3,474; Bierly and John S. Gonas won over John W. Pfaff and Robert S. Webb, the latter by a vote of 4,942, to 3.483. Prohibitionists polled 218 votes for John R. Stellc as secretary of state, and lesser totals for other state offices. The race between Yager and Johnson apparently held the most interest for voters, since 9.046 cast ballots in the race. Approximately 9,200 persons voted in the election. i~ ~ — Trade in a good town — Decatur.

Both served potice that the Republican campaign (for 1960 would start at once. Few GOP Victories AU was not lost for the GOP. Republicans found a few bright spots, particularly- in New York, where Nelson A. Rockefeller upended Democratic Gov. Averell Harriman and killed him off as a potential presidential contender. RockefeUer carried Rep. Kenneth B. Keating into a Senate seat over Democrat Frank S. Hogan. Democratic governors also were displaced by Republicans in Arizona and Rhode Island. The 7 a.m. c.s.t. rundown on the standings shown by the United Press International count (including results from the Maine election Sept. 8) showed: Democrats re-elected all 13 of their’ incumbent senators whose seats were at stake this year, won 12 and led in a tight race in Wyoming for seats now held by Republicans. With 36 holdovers, their indicated Senate membership was 62, compared with 59 necessary for control. Besides the Senate gains in Connecticut and Ohio, the Democrats wrested two GOP seats in West Virginia and one each in' California, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, NCw Jersey, ad Utah. They took one in Maine in September. Republicans elected 8 senators for an indicated membership of 34, counting their 26 holdovers. In the House. Democrats had elected 272 members and led in 6 other contests for an indicated total of 278. compared with 219 needed to control. Republicans had elected 132 and led in 24 other races for an indicated total of 156.

The present lineup of governors is 29 Democrats and 19 Republicans. Along with their grand slam in Connecticut, Democrats unseated five Republican House members in Indiana. They gained three each in Maryland and Pennsylvania, including President Eisenhower’s home district. Nebraska, where Democrats have had a hard time for 20 years, elected two Democrats in its four-member House delegation. Rep. A.L. Miller, eight-term veteran and ranking Republican on the House Interior Committee was defeated. Thye Loses Seat Rep. Paul Cunningham, a nineterm member, was a GOP casualty in lowa, where the Democrats re-elected their one incumbent House member and added two more. In Minnesota, Republican Sen. Edward J.
