On Nov. 3 Decatur will choose its mayor, city council, clerk-treasurer, and city judge for the coming four years. Why should anyone vote in the election ? It should not be necessary "to relate the history of ( the United States, but perhaps a brief discussion is in order. In the 1770’s we petitioned the king of England concerning our problem: taxation without representation. He failed to listen or heed the petition. So our only recourse was the war of independence. This war, in which thousands died, won us the right to vote, to petition for grievances to an executive we can remove if he does not listen; it won us many rights. But those rights are all worthless unless they are used. What good is the right to vote if you do not exercise it intelligently? It is no good at all. So every one of the more than 4,000 voters should study the issues of this city election. They should then consider which candidates are most likely, from their past records, to favor what they say they favor, and have the time and energy to expend doing it. Remember, an election should not be a popularity contest. It makes little difference if you like the man you vote for; it makes a world of difference whether or not he is capable, and willing, and anxious, to do a good job. Is he, or she, qualified for the job sought? Every side of every question in this election has been fully explained and published. To do so again would only lead to pages and pages of written matter, little of which would be read. Anyone with any specific questions should immediately call either John Doan or Bernard Clark for the answer of their respective party: they will gladly find out for you. • • • • DEMOCRATIC CITY CANDIDATES For Mayor Robert D.

Legion Plans Open House After Parade The American Legion will hold an open house after the Callithumpiah parade Saturday night, everyone welcome, dancing, entertainment, and free refreshments for everyone. Dr. Richard Parrish, chairman for the event, said today. This is one of several open houses held annually by the Legion so that the public may become better acquainted with its vete." ans, he pointed out. Those who have been down town to watch the parade are invited to come over to the Legion afterward, and get acquainted. Post 43 has 800 members in Decatur and surrounding areas, all of whom were veterans of the First and Second World Wars and the Korean war. Anyone who served during time of war is eligible to join, both men and women. The American Legion has an active program of community service, sponsoring speech contests on the constitution, sponsoring Boys State, providing wheel chairs for crippled patients, and hundreds of other every-day services. The open house is a good time for everyone to become acquainted with the Legion members, and get to know their veteran neighbors better.

Demonstration Here On Safety Driving Driver training pupils from Decatur, Decatur Catholic, and Pleasant Mills high school received a vivid demonstration on “How Large is a Dime,’’ Tuesday morning as the Nationwide Insurance Co. sponsored a theory-practical driving session. Wenzel Morris, driving training supervisor for the firm from Columbus. 0., conducted the safedriving program, illustrating by film and actual driving methods just how small a dime is “when you try to stop on one.’’ Film Shows Penalties In the film, “Teenage Violator,” the reaction time of a specific youthful driver was highlighted. The driver, while being chased by police for speeding, ended in a sorrowful wreck in which four of the occupants were killed, the driver alone escaping. ( At the demonstration on Adams street, a series of markers graphically illustrated just how much pavement is consumed in stopping a car at various speeds. Jerry Rambo and Marceda Whetstone operated the car at 20 miles an hour, while Steve Everhart and Robert Davis, driving training instructors at Decatur and Pieasant Mills, respectively, drove at 30 miles an hour. The 40-mile test, with a police officer at the wheel, was cancelled because of slick pavement. An Eye-Opener The demonstration, however, even at these relatively low rates of “safe” speeds certainly opened a few youthful eyes. The sophomore drivers learned that reaction time in seeing when to stop and when the driver can actually stop is often times at great variance with one another. Assisting Morris with the tests were John Cowan as scorekeeper, Mike Affolder, Tom Cravens, Bob Landrum. Rudy and Ron Kleinknight. Ray Eichenauer, local Nationwide agent, and Roy Overmeyer, district manager of the insurance firm from the Wabash office, also aided in the demonstration.
