Single copies, 9 cents. a Watch Out Most parents have read with alarm and terror the stories of youngsters suffocated recently when the popular plastic bags used nowadays in place of the paper bag have become death traps. Little children see the transparent bags, and place them over their heads “to see out of.” But the bags gather static electricity, and stick fast to the little shaver’s head. The plastic allows no air to enter; this is fine for preserving foods or keeping clean-, ing dust free, but it is exceptionally bad for children. , When the plastic begins to stick, and air leaves the bag, the children panic, and soon expire. The only answer to the problem can come from the parents. The bags must be collected and destroyed, or kept out of the reach of children, like poison, matches, and dynamite. If we are alert, we can prevent a useless tragedy in Decatur.

' On Mr. Dawaid A great deal of speculation concerning the state board of accounts report on Earl Dawaid, Geneva newspaperman, Monmouth teacher, and former independent Republican candidate for circuit court judge, has been heard. One thing should be made very clear. Dawaid was accused of not reporting any justice of the peace funds during a four-year period. He was not accused of mismanaging the money. It was all safe in the Berne bank, including most of that which was owed to him. It merely charged that hie accounting methods were not approved by the state board. Yes, he made a mistake, but there was nothing dishonest about it. Undoubtedly a great number of Mr. Dawalcl’s personal enemies have had a field day, and many will attempt to magnify the act out of all proportion. This is quite common. In the decade that Mr. Dawaid has made Adams county his home, he has managed to antagonize nearly every group, largely through his mimeographed weekly, The Geneva Progress. Like most editors, some of what he has stood for has been very good, some has noth While we have often disagreed with what he said, we have never disagreed with his right to say it, within propriety. Some of his neighbors believe that in some instances he has passed propriety; no doubt he has approached it upon occasion. But everyone who knows Mr. Dawaid knows that he is essentially honest and upright. He has been a fine teacher at Monmouth school. While it is possible that the grand jury next fall may take some action against him, it is quite unlikely to be more than a reprimand. No doubt the notoriety of the press report has been more than just punishment for the fiery editor. While many of us do not always agree with him, let’s respect him as an individual, and withhold any* damaging decisions until the full facts are known. Let’s remember that every individual in this Democracy, whether he be Amish, or Lutheran, a farmer or an editor, has the same rights—rights of belief, rights to real American fairness. It would be no more right to slander Mr. Dawaid by repeating something untrue and unproved against him, than it would be right to slander any other person or group. While some might call this crying for justice from the court house steps, it is a basic American premise.

CHAPTER 22 "’’T'HERE ISb T any evidence 1 that Arnold is guilty, unless George Wykoff made it up!” Ruth Vineent said. •‘Wykoffa got his records locked up in the house there,” Murray Kirk said. "And he’s got a record in black and white of the pay-off Ira Miller made to Arnold on May third." “In what form?" Ralph Harlingen said witheringly. "A signed receipt ?” "You know darn well there’s no signed receipt,” Murray said, “but that doesn’t mean anything. Wykoff ran his racket like a business. He’s that kind of man: you’d have to meet him to appreciate it. Hee the kind of man who brings you out to see him at the point of a gun, and then has his lawyer on ths spot so everything’ll be handled the right way. And he does have a record of Arnold’s graft It mejns that Miller and Schrade are telling the truth. Maybe you don't know it Ralph, but the toughest man to handle on the witness stand is a crook who finds himself telling the truth for the first time in hjs life and is glad to make the most of it. That’s what you’re up against here, so you can see how much of a case you’ve got” Harlingen said: "It seems to me we’ve run through a routine like this before. You didn't get me here at this hour just to repeat it to me, did you ?” "No, I wanted you here to listen to some advice. First thing tomorrow you get Arnold Into town and explain all this to him. Then see if he won’t appear before the grand Jury again and recant his testimony. If he won’t, see if you can’t get him to plead guilty to a lesser count of the indictment Perjury in the second, let’s say. I don’t know if LoScalzo would be interested in making a deal, but he might be talked to on that basis. The only trouble is that he’s holding the winning hand and knows it” "Is that the only trouble?” Harlingen said. “What kind of hand are you holding, Murray? I wonder about that" "What does that mean?" Murray asked. Ruth came to her feet and confronted him. "You know what it means,** she told him scathingly. "How much did Wykoff pay you to say this, that's what it means. Well, how much was it? More than Arnold could pay?" It left Murray with the feeling he had after Billy Caxton had hit him. Worse than that He had been hurt by Caxton, but be had not been afraid. He was afraid now. "Ruth,” he said, "I swear that I never took a penny from Wykoff. He didn’t offer me anything." "You mean, all he did was tel

| you what to do, and you’re doing i it,’’ she said sweetly. Too sweetly, i "He threatened you.” "No,” Murray said, "he threatened you. He had us followed i Saturday night, and he’s got you marked. It doesn’t mean anything as long as I don’t step on 1 his toes, but even so, starting toi morrow I’m assigning a man to keep an eye on you until all this blows over. You won’t have anyl thing to worry about.” “I won’t have anything to worry 1 about? Oh, please, please, let’s > not drag this down to the level of melodrama. You don’t really think that makes it any more convincing, do you ?’’ He wanted to hit her then. He ’ could feel all through him the release he’d get from the impact of his hand against her face. She ‘ must have sensed that, too. She ' took an Involuntary step back as i he stood up, and that rather pleased him. “What’re you afraid of?” he asked her. “A little melodrama? ’ You know I’m only hamming it up. The whole thing's a big Joke.” He looked at Harlingen. “Same as what happened to that little guy who ran the lunch stand we were at Remember him, Ralph? A genuine Tn nocent bystander, wasn’t he? That is, until Wykoff got the idea he knew more than he was telling, and had a couple of the boys send him to the hospital for repairs.” "You don’t mean that,” Harlingen said. “You want to call up the Montefiore right now, and ask how the patient is doing? The name is Garcia. Oh, he’s probably listed as an accident case, but 1 wouldn't let that fool me, if 1 were you. I know how sensitive you are about anybody fooling you." “That’s not very funny,’’ Harlingen said. “No? Well, Pm only laughing to keep from crying. How would you feel in my place? Or you?” he asked Ruth. "Do I sound more convincing now?” She shook her head furiously. “No!” she said with hard emphasis. "Ruth.Wlon’t you know me well enough by now to trust me?" he pleaded. She said: "I thought I did! I thought—oh, what’s the sense of going through all that? I was wrong, that’s all. And Arnold was right” “Abdhtwhat?” “About you. The last time I talked to him about you he said I was being stupid. He said anyone who trusted private* detectives was stupid.” When you were sufficiently enraged, Murray found, you really saw red. Ruth — Harlingen — the whole room around him wavered
Retired Captain Os State Police Dies MARION, Ind. (UPD— Don L. Kooken, 68, who helped break up the Al Capone mob, died at the Veterans Hospital here Wednesday. Kooken, a native of Dekalb county, had been a patient at the hospital since March 12. One of the nation’s top criminologists, Kooken was with the U. S. Treasury Dept, when he was selected as one of a group of T-men loaned to Chicago police to gather evidence against the Capone gang. For the past 13 years, Kooken was a professor and chairman ot the Department of Police Administration at Indiana University. He organized that department and a training department for Indiana State Police as well. Kooken, a retired captain of Indiana State Police, was the author of a textbook entitled, ‘‘Police Ethics.” He was survived by his wife, Thelma; a son, Col. John D. Kooken, Fort Houston, Va.; a daughter, Mrs. Rex Lawrence, Hammond; a sister, and four grandchildren.
Modern Etiquette I By ROBERTA LEE I o — o Q. Is the term “Esq” properly used when addressing a letter to a man? . • ’ A. Esquire is an English title meaning a gentleman, a man of education. It is not much used in America today, except among a few consevative, older people. If you do use it, however, remember that it is used WITHOUT the “Mr.” A man may be John Jones Esq., or Mr. John Jones, but never Mr. John Jones, Esq. Q. Is it correct to use the knife for cutting fish at the dinner table? A. No; the fork should be used for this — although it may be necessary at times to use the knife to slip back a piece of refractory skin. Q. Which ring is presented first in a double-ring wedding ceremony? A. The bridegroom places his ring on the bride’s, finger first. if you have something to sell or rooms ior rent, try a Democrat Want Ad — They bring results.
’ in a reddish haze. He said hoarsely, “Sure, Arnold is the judge, Jury, and executioner in this case, isn’t he? He’s a mighty smart cop who knows all the answers And every day he's on trial Til be the first one in court and the last one out. It’ll be a pleasure to watch them break him wide , open!” “I believe that,” Ruth whispered. “Oh, how I believe that now. But whatever happens, Murray, take my advice. Don’t order theater tickets or make restaurant reservations for a celebration, if you’re expecting me to celebrate with you. Don’t plan any post-mortems where suddenly we’ll be holding hands in the mooplight. Up to now you’ve been making good time, I’m ashamed to say. You've been taking me for a lovely ride. But here’s where 1 get off. “Arnold and I have never been much oil concealing things from each other,” Ruth continued. : “We’ve never gotten the fun out of being devious and dishonest , that you do. You heed practice to enjoy that, don’t you?” i "1 suppose so,” Murray said, and then pushed conscience aside, i ’’Why don't you ask Arnold about that?” “What do you mean?” Ruth asked Murray. “What are you getting at?” The image of Lundeen lay tn his hand, his own wax doll whose time had come. He slowly crushed it in his fist “Ruth,” he said, "Arnold’s been playing you for a fool right along. JSe’s got another girl op the string who thinks he's going to marry her. He’ll have a hard time getting out of it when she sets the date.” Ruth looked at him openmouthed, and her expression was one of sheer Incredulity. “Gracious," she said, “what a mind! It’s absolutely fascinating." "It’s not that fascinating,” Murray said, and looked at Harlingen. "Go on, teß her, why don’t you?” “Tell her what?” Harlingen said angrily. “Hearsay doesn’t mean anything." "Which applies to Wykoff, too," Ruth pointed out. “And Miller. And anyone else ypu’d care U name, doesn’t it?" She was triumphant now, Murray saw. She had Harlingen or her side, and truth and Justice ans righteousness. It was almost I shame to knock all the fine sentiment out of her. “Murray ran through the hall calling her name, dimly aware •f spectators tn nightclothes who hung over the banister of the staircase above him. follow- , tng him with avid eyes . . .* The story continues tomorrow.
