A ‘Colorful’ Election; Just Pick Your Favorite Party Platform Hues Range From Conservative of G. 0. P. to Red Communists.
r l''HE fastidious Marion oounty voter who may be a stickler for color J-has a wide variety of pa;ty hues from which to choose his ballot in the fall elections. The colors, range from the somber conservative hues of the Republicans to the bright red of the Communists. The parties, from right to left, are Republican, Democrat, People’s Fusion. National, Socialist and Communist, with the Prohibition party, lonely because its "child” was killed by repeal. An analysis of each platform reveals a vast and noisy confusion.
The Republican battle cry of "Down with the administration, state and national,” bears a certain sly resemblance to the Communist bleating, "Down with everything as it is.” Even with such diverse platforms in the field, there apparently is a great deal of indiscriminate grabbing of issues belonging to other parties if they seem to make political capital. The Republicans (at certain meetings) have felt called upon to outshout the Democrats on promising relief. a a a THE G. O. P. old guard continues to believe in the glories of rugged individualism preached by Herbert Hoover and in the inherent ability of the business man to control liis own destinies. The other parties, with- the exception of the Prohibition group, greet this policy with a unanimous "Boo!” Most middle-of-the-road is the Democratic policy of a little "benevolent guiding” of a capitalism which still may spur individual initiative. The Prohibition party isn’t interested in who is on top just so the demon rum is eradicated and the nation’s morals untangled. The Democratic party, enjoying a successful blood transfusion by Dr. Roosevelt, is crying lustily for absolute support of the national administration. In Marion county a major isoue is the smashing of the battle-scarred Coffin machine. The Republicans, for their part, have been looking with a bloodthirsty eye at Governor Paul V. McNutt. a a a THE Peoples’ Fusion party, in keeping with a growing national feeling, desires municipal ownership of utilities and the weeding out of unnecessary public offices. In the days when the utilities were riding on a triumphant crest of power, such talk would have been heresy, but now is an outspoken sentiment voiced bv many voters. ‘The Nationalist party drops to the left with a platform the main difference from socialism of which Is its blunt statement; "We detest socialist dictatorship and believe that every one should be given the right to his home free from government intrusion.” Some of the National party’s

By Time* Special BOONVILLE, Oct. 13 —Only woman seeking office in Warrick county in the November election is Mrs. Josephine Owens Taylor. She is the Democratic nominee for city clerk-treasurer of Boonville. Mrs. Taylor is private secretary to Philip Lutz Jr., attorney-general of Indiana, serving in his Boonville office.

most unusual planks are: No rent of more than $1 a day to be charged for any home, no Interest to be charged on money, no taxes on personal property, free hospitals for all, government control of all transportation, and no profit-taking in the sale of intoxicating liquor. The Socialist program long has remained the same. Based on the economic philosophy of Karl Marx, the Socialist party in America has as Its hue, at least in the public's opinion, a pleasant pink. Locally the party is pledged to legislate new state laws making possible the inauguration of citycontrolled industries for the relief of the unemployed. Since the advent of the New Deal, the Socialists have found some of their issues stolen baldly and skillfully from under their very r jses. The government now operates two meat packing plants and a mattress factory here for the benefit of the unemployed. a a a THE Socialist and People’s Fusion parties seem somewhat similar on several points—reassessment of property to restore to the tax duplicates many tax-free institutions, municipal control of utilities, civil service standards for public employes and simplification of city government. The Socialists have taken up the political battle for union labor by advocating the abolition of the anti-picketing ordinance, the prevention of police from actively suppressing strikes, and for the use of union labor on a thirtyhour week on public works projects. The Communist party has been soft-pedaling the world-wide revolution idea and substituting what seems to its members to be more fruitful and constructive —a vigorously active support of labor and the unemployed. In the Communist party platform there is much talk of "rights.” Social workers who have had verbal combats with the Communist unemployed councils and police who have met the International Labor Defense here will attest to the ability of the Communists to mix in any case where those "rights” seem to be involved.

SMALL LOANS FIT NEEDS OF MOSTPERSONS Only Small Per Cent of Population Can Be Served by Banks. "Credit is a universal necessity,” C. C. Lloyd, manager of the Capital Loan Company, Inc., 207 Kresge building, 41 East Washington street, observes. "It Is as vital to the workingman, clerk, artisan or laborer on small salary or wages as to the great corporations or to governments, to whom it is indispensible. ‘‘The commercial banks do not and can not directly serve the credit needs of the great majority,” he concluded. It is estimated that only about 8, or at most 10, per cent o t the adult population has checking accounts, and of this number less than 5 per cent can borrow at banks. This is to say that 90 per cent of the adult population does not possess collateral which would be accepted by banks as security for loans. Accordingly, this large majority, in any emergency such as sickness, death in the family, unemployment or other unforeseen or immediate occasion for ready money, must seek elsewhere for credit accommodations. They have two available resources, charity or a loan. The first recourse is unthinkable to the great majority of such borrowers. The loan, then, is the solution. The Capital Loan Company, Inc., is a friend indeed to those who are temporarily "up against it.” Any worthy person requiring financial help may obtain a loan in amounts up to S3OO within twen-ty-four hours and virtually choose the length of time for repayment. "We require no indorsers or comakers of notes and make no inquired of employers or trades persons,” Mr. Lloyd explains.

DEVICE SHOWS WHEEUJEFECT C. Off Company Makes Use of Aligner in Auto Repair Work. Recently installed at the C. Off Company, 107 North East street, automobile repair firm, is a wheel aligner which accurately shows the slide-slip to the right or left of an automobile in feet per mile. This is a boon to the motorist if his car is defective in this respect, and once adjusted, the saving in tire wear compensates for the cost of inspection and adjustment. Adhering to its slogan of “We take the dents out of accidents,” the company does body and fender repair work and maintains a special woodworking department needed in the body repair of older model automobiles. With freezing weather on the way, it is suggested that the car owner have the radiator and motor block cleaned out, and a suitable antifreeze solution injected for winter driving. PAINT HALTS DISEASE Physician Tells of Fever Decrease After Coating Hospital Walls. Dr. Max Starkloff, more than thirty years health commissioner of St. Louis, cites an incident where more than 100 lives probably were saved because the application of paint to walls left no place for disease to prooagate. "In a hospital of which I had knowledge,” says Dr. Starkloff, "there were, in a given period, more than 100 cases of puerperal fever, with a high death rate. After the walls were painted, it was noted that in a similar length of time, cases of puerperal fever almost were unknown. Undoubtedly paint was largely responsible for this saving of many lives.”

Increase in Refrigerator Business Requires More Room. Keeping step with the bustling south side of Indianapolis, the Polar Ice and Fuel Company is building anew office building and showrooms at its coal yard and ice plant at 1902 South East street. Increasing use of Polar modern ice refrigerators has made it advisable for the company to build sales and display rooms in various parts of the city.
