STILL TIME TO CLOTHE A CHILD OTILL time to clothe a child, but not much. If Times readers could see the little applicants and their parents as they visit Clothe-a-Child headquarters their hearts would be touched. And if they could see them as they leave the stores, newly clad, the readers would understand their money was well spent. Everybody will have to work fast if enough good is to be done before Christmas. It is futile to hope that all the needy will be reached. But we can hope that in the next few days many more of the neediest children will be helped. That is why we are making this appeal. Send a check, come in person, or telephone Cloth-a-Child, Riley 5551. MR. ZOERCHER’S WISE WORDS T EGISLATORS of Indiana should get their inA-' structions from the taxpayers and not from organized township officers. So said Philip Zoercher, chairman of the State Tax Board, and a man who probably knows as much about taxation in this state as any other. Mr. Zoercher was speaking for the proposed reduction in the number of Indiana townships. The committee on governmental economy thinks about 475 would be enough. Said Mr. Zoercher to the county assessors of the state at their annual conference: The question resolves itself into one of whether the taxpayers of the state of Indiana, the voters interested in the public welfare, should take orders from an organization of public officials, whose aim seems to be to prevent any changes, or whether the general welfare should be uppermost in the coming conflict. If there ever was a time when we should get the most good for the general public for every dollar that is spent, that time is now. We should eliminate waste. Much can be done by reducing the units of government. With our improved roads and means of transportation, many of the smaller units are no longer necessary. If our government was organized with the purpose of bringing about “a more perfect union,” we should be willing to make that union conform to the spirit of the times and see that changes are made in harmony with the progress of the present age. That sounds like common sense. If Nebraska can do away with the two-chamber Legislature, certainly Indiana can dispense with some notably weak townships, sparsely populated and without a tax yield justifying a set of officers. By combining townships and adopting the county unit for schools there would be some relief—not enough, of course—for owners of homes, farms and businesses. CONSIDER THE SOURCE, TOKYO yT might not be so bad if the Japanese people understood that Senator Key Pittman was just another silver Senator. I It might, not be so bad if the Japanese people realized, that Senator Pittman happens to be the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee by accident of seniority, and not by any process of selection which took into account his knowledge or judgment in regard to international affairs. It might not be so bad even if the Japanese people only knew that Las Vegas is just an oasis in an inland desert known as Nevada, whose most bounteous crop, outside of divorces, is a type of cac*us good only for the distillation of an especially virulent and distasteful kind of liquor. But the Japanese people don’t know these things In respect to Senator Pittman they know only what they read in the Japanese newspapers, and there they see that Mr. Pittman, the chairman of the Senate committee which controls the foreign affims of the United States, delivered a speech before something called the Las Vegas Rotary Club. And that he charged Japan, in that speech, with maUcious designs to invade and conquer the United Spates, and called upon the United States and Great Britain to Join in a bristling naval maneuver at the gates of the Orient. Such a speech can have no other effect than so instill unwarranted fears and hatreds in the Japanese people and give to the Japanese militarist clique the political ammunition it needs to promote its schemes of armaments and conquest. The blusters of Jingoist Pittman will be echoed by the Jingoists in Japan, thereby widening the chasm of susp cion between the peoples of Japan and the United States who have every sane reason in the world to look upon each other as friends. President Roosevelt, we believe, should speedily disavow this tall and tactless talk. LIGHT ON MINNEAPOLIS DAVIS, in his descriptions of MinneapOlis as a crime center, must be giving respectable residents of that city some uncomfortable moments. Following the trail of the Liggett murder, he lists the notoricais gangsters known to have made Minneapolis their headquarters because it was safer than other hideouts. The list is astonishing, both for its length and the prominence of the criminals. The sinister Milne kidnaping in the East, with its use of narcotics as a means of keeping the captive quiet, shows why municipal cleanups are imperative. The government, men have done and are doing valiant work in tracking down criminals who come under the Federal law. But as long as cities continue to harbor felons, as Minneapolis evidently was doing through its complacent attitude, atrocities will recur. What Mr. Davis is writing about the Twin Cities is almost incredible, but his reputation as an accurate reporter means that he must be believed. Perhaps his articles will create a public opinion there among decent citizns demanding anew deal. HAM AND EGGS \ NDREW JACKSON was a plain man. Once, when he was President, he passed through a small Pennsylvania town on Sunday. He went to the Presbyterian church that morning and while the dominie was preaching the hotel keeper tiptoed In to the President's pew and in a whisper asked him what he would like for To th^

astonishment of the boniface and the congregation, Jackson shouted “Ham and eggs." Now comes Jim Farley with a suggestion that Hoosier Democrats, when they gather to honor Jackson at dinner next month, charge $lO a person. Six dollars would go to the National Committee, $2.50 to the state organization, and $1.50 would go for the meal. It seems to us that Mr. Farley is getting too far away from Jacksonian democracy. You can get ham and eggs for 30 cents. That would leave $9 70 a person for the state and national war chest. BORAH ENTERS THE FRAY XJO more wholesome thing could have happened -*-N f or Republican Party, we believe, than Senator Borah’s aggressi\-e entry into the presidential race. A few days ago it looked as if, through default of the liberal element, the Grand Old Party was to remain in the grasp of the Old Guard. It locked as if some of the leading candidates now in the field would kill each other off in a repetition of the Wood-Lowden deadlock of 1920, and land the party in another “smoke-filled hotel room" where the bosses would handpick a Tweedledum or a Tweedledee to head the ticket. But the entry of the eloquent Idaho progressive changes the picture. If he takes earnestly to the hustings, and Borah delegates are placed on the tickets in those states which have presidential primaries, the issues between liberalism and reaction in party policies should be effectively dramatized, and rank and file Republican voters may be able to make their wishes heard and heeded at the Cleveland convention. We hope Senator Borah goes into every state which holds a preferential primary, and we believe his chances of winning are good in all that he enters. Yet we know the cards are stacked against him. In too many states delegates to the national convention are chosen at state conventions packed and controlled by Old Guard bosses, and in others preference primaries are held under rules so complex as to deny the voter a clear-cut choice. Moreover, this year the Old Guard bpsses will have plenty of money to spend. Big business interests which desire a subservient national Administration' know it is impossible to block the renomination of President Roosevelt by the Democrats. So they are expected to loosen their purse strings to the Republicans in return for promises of a reactionary platiorm, a reactionary candidate, and a return to the dog-eat-dog economics upon which they built the false prosperity of the twenties and left a sacked people to fend for themselves in the early thirties. That political coup Senator Borah has undertaken to thwart, believing a campaign based on a return to the old order would bring a disastrous defeat to the Republican Party, whose leadership he has long criticised, but whose banner he has never deserted. A majority of rank and file Republicans, we believe, join us in wishing Senator Borah godspeed. He has his faults. But no other Republican is ; so well equipped to succeed in the mission he is undertaking. None other so completely enjoys the trust of the common man. None other has his experience and talent. None ether his long record of honesty and humanity. PERTINENT TN reading the second sharply worded note to President Roosevelt from Supreme Knight Martin H. Cannody of the Knights of Columbus regarding the Mexican church-state controversy, it is well to recall two things. One is that when George Cardinal Mundelein, one of four princes of the church in the United States, presented the President for an honorary degree at Notre Dame University he said: “No individual Catholic, bishop or priest, no organization of laymen or Catholic newspaper has the right to speak for 20 million Catholics.” .The other is that in the 1935 “Who’s Who,” Supreme Knight Carmody gives his politics as “Republican.” WHO WAS EMBARRASSED? A TTORNEYS for the Duke Power Cos. discovered 1 that their enemy had written a book. So they got Interior Secretary Harold Ickes on the witness stand in the Federal Court at Spartanburg, S. C., and confronted him with passages from “Back to Work,” Mr. Ickes’ history of PWA. The power company counsel quoted paragraphs which said that the Duke electric rates were too high, that the company had been seeking “two days in court,” and had been “exacting unconscionable tribute for many years.” "It’s an interesting book,” the company counsel said sarcastically. “Yes, and an instructive one,” the author added. FEARS AND FEARS /CONCERNING Herbert Hoover's wheeze that the bank panic was caused by scared depositors who were "frightened at the incoming New Deal,” we seem to recall that the paramount fear in those dark days was that March 4, 1933, might never come. A WOMAN’S VIEWPOINT By Mrs. Walter Ferguson TF the Lady, as we used to know her, is to be the vogue once more—and society commentators say so—is it too much to hope that the Gentleman will also stage a comeback? In a good many hearts there is nostalgia for the type of young man who thought it such bad taste to “crash" a party that he never did so. At all social functions he practiced kindness and consideration for others—by giving a part of his attention to many girls instead of monopolizing one for the enitre evening. Invited to a private home, it was a point of honor with him to co-cperate with his hostess in the entertainment of her guests. He did .aot barge in merely to drink up all the liquor in the house, nor to hide out with his gang in the elubroem while the women present waited in vain for dancing partners. u a T'VRUNKENNESS. in his cpinion, was not a social grace. In fact he advocated the horse wh'p for one who so far forgot himself as to appear before women in a maudlin state. Passing out at a party was to him the equivalent of passing out of the social picture altogether. His ideas about forcing unwanted attentions upon decent women were peculiar, too. In his code of ethics the person who did so was not fit for good society. So dull indeed was his sense of humor that he was unable to see anything funny in a girl’s walking home from a ride. In short, he was a mossback. Polite to chaperons and old people, he had also a very high regard for a good girl's reputation. According to present standards he would be a cross between a Fat Head and a Flat Tire—and the wits of our era would regard him as a fusty motheaten relic. Nevertheless, I hope some day the world may look upon his like again, ft

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Squaring The Circle With McCREADY HUSTON

THE Christmas cards have begun to arrive. The congressmen's come first. A Representative's secretary must be exhausted by the time he gets his chief's Christmas cards in the mail. Sometime I intend to find out whether the secretary imitates the great man’s signature or whether the Christmas cards are actually signed by the statesman. I believe Rep. Samuel B. Pettengill of Indiana signs his own. Nobody could imitate his script and make it look authentic. a a a There is a card from Herman Schilling, showing the five members of his family in reverse with patches predominant where patches usually appear. What I can’t understand about this card is that the picture shows the family cat inside the canary cage. That must be symbolic of something touching the present state of affairs but I can not make out the meaning. a tt a '“Y'-'HE Christmas 'greeting card trade this year has been the heaviest in years. Not only have more cards been sold, but, a dealer tells me, people have gone in for the more expensive kinds. That is a comment on the end of depression which is significant. People are withdrawing from their shells and beginning to get in touch with their friends again. But there is one greeting card problem which remains to be solved. Perhaps Jim Farley will issue an order solving it before he leaves office. What to do about people who fool you by sending cards when you haven’t sent them any? They arrive, say, the day before Christmas and you are in a dither. If the Postoffice Department would agree, for a small extra fee, to turn the dating machines back to, say, December 20, for people thus caught off guard, a real public service would be rendered. o u tt Nothing can upset a household at Christmas as much as receiving a greeting card from somebody it had crossed off the list. The kind of a card which causes the master to grunt "Humph!” tt a tt I see by the papers that 110 unemployed writers are to get to work under Ross F. Lockridge, the Indiana historian, on a sort of history of the state. This must be good news to the wives of the writers. There is nothing worse around the house than a writer with nothing to do. I know whereof I speak. I have been an unemployed writer myself and I know I was obnoxious to the family till I got back into the swing. u tt a A/COST American writing is done on salary and most of the short stories and novels are byproducts, written on the side, in spare time. When the author’s salaried job is taken away he is likely to become jittery, unable to produce his other work. What makes his situation more difficult is that writers are usually temperamentally hard to handle. They are sensitive, sometimes suspicious, and apt to feel the world is against them. Few can discipline themselves to days of toil with no master but themselves. The out- j standing example of one who quit I daily newspaper work and made | himself do a union day in the study j is Irvin S. Cobb. a a a Ray Miilholland, Indianapolis boy, crashes through with a marine story in Collier’s. That is a hard fiction j market to make. Kenneth Littauer, I the fiction editor, is not easy to please. So, congratulations to Mr. Miilholland. OTHER OPINION Hoover Aroused [Anderson Bulletin] The average man in the street is gratified to read of Herbert Hoover's widely-heralded anger with the present condition of affairs in the United States. The public hears with interest his vigorous pronouncements to the St. Louis Republican Club that the nation may be saved only through adoption of his plan for making everybody self-sustaining —and, thereby, happy. He apparently has taken a page from the late Thomas M. Marshall and his 5-cent cigar wisecrack, and says in effect that what this country needs is a good decentralized relief (presumably administered most efficiently by Herbert C. Hoover). Too Many Lawsuits I Robert H. Jackson. Assistant General Counsel of the United States Treasuryl The American bar could render a constructive and statesmanlike service to our judicial system if it would lead the way to organizing the process of testing constitutionality, and save it from being discredited by the present conflicts and confusion. This multiplicity of lawsuits, deluge of lower court opinions, defiance of the laws passed by Congress, and long delay in getting the case to the only court that can determine it, are not looked upon by any one, except the lawyers engaged, as 'ery becoming to a democratic institution.

If it would not be asking too much, I would like to say just a few words in regard to this plan. Personally, I will not be eligible to benefit if this plan is passed, for some 20 years. But I think from my OYvn study of it that it would be the greatest thing that ever happened to this country. And, too, although I have been a Republican ever since I could vote and get around to the polls to help, I was one among the other thousands who voted for our dear friend Franklin D. Roosevelt, because I, like the rest, hoped for the best and thought it would come by a change. So far I believe that things do look a little brighter, and I think that they will be more so if (and that little word means a whole, lot) Mr. RooseY’elt will do one thing: see to it that this thing is passed and given a fair trial. I admire Mr. Roosevelt for the many things that he has done so far and I believe that we should give him a longer time to do more. But he should see to it that this is passed. And then he will not only be President of the greatest country in the Yvorld, but will be one of the greatest men this country has ever known. n a tt SEES NO CAUSE FOR ALL THE ALARM By Perry Rule, Bringhurst Having served 14 years as township trustee, and rendering service for the State Trustee Association in various capacities, I found trustees with few exceptions diligent, eager and competent. The mandatory acts governing expenditures leaves the trustee few optional privileges. I found the trustees would be the first to help and the last to object to any legislative move to increase efficiency and reduce the taxpayers’ burden. A saving has been effected by abolishing the office of township road supervisor and, in many cases, that of township assessors. Placing the tOYvnship roads in county road systems was also an economical move and it may be determined that services now rendered by other officials could be performed more economically and advantageously by the township trustees or vice-versa. Those are matters for the general assembly to determine. It is the consensus of opinion that

A—A republic is a state in which the sovereignty resides in the people and the administration is lodged in officers elected by and representing the people. It is a representative democracy. A democracy is the political system in which government is directly exercised or controlled by the people collectively; government by the people as distinguished from aristocracy. Q—Where were the Army-Navy football games held in 1933 and 1934? What was the attendance? A—Both games were played in Franklin Field. Philadelphia.

there is much overlapping in government administrations, and that improvement is possible and would increase efficiency and reduce expenditures. I knoYV township trustees are fully in accord with any movement that promotes such a program, but they do object; to limiting home rule. They desire that the electorate continue to have full representation in choosing officials that serve them. No effort is noYV on foot to curb or destroy home rule. In an interview with our Governor it was learned that he is unalterably opposed to limiting or curbing home rule and I see no need of viewing Yvith alarm or being unduly frightened about the abolishment or combining of local units. My experience as an association official has been that chose prearranged and scheduled scares are broadcast at the psychological time to increase membership and contributions to the various county and township state associations. Most county and township officials and citizens are wise to this and only shrug their shoulders at this tempest in the teapot and viewing with alarm. tt t* TOWNSEND PLAN HERALDED AS GREAT DOCUMENT By R. L. Morgan, Bloomington Throughout all ages the contest between the forces of evil and the forces of righteousness has gone on unceasingly and with fury. The forces of might or power have alYvays sought to rule, oppress, exploit and, if necessary, crush the weak. Only by adoption and enforcement of fair and just laws, or by use of the sword, have these evil forces of greed and aggrandizement been held in check and obeisance. To oppose them has been costly in reputation, life, blood and treasure. But thanks to the Almighty, while we have suffered temporary setbacks, the forces of righteousness. Yvith an enraged and aroused conscience under capable leadership, have never failed to advance their posts of light, wisdom, mercy and justice all along the lines of attack of the world’s omvard march of progress and civilization. Many of our leaders and statesmen, together Yvith teeming millions of their host, have fallen upon the field of battle; others have been assassinated, but we have never and never will cease firing at the enemy. Step by step we have gone forward against stubborn resistance and the storm of abuse and slander, but Yve never have failed to raise the banner of truth and righteousness on every hilltop we sought to gain. The sacrifice has been great, but the reward overshadotvs all of the suffering and loss. Back behind the ranks of the fighting force stand the monuments of achievements. Since the dawn of creation and the first declaration or war against the devil or Satan in the Garden of Eden, there have been penned by the hand of man and defended by the sword three great outstanding documents in the

interest of the oppressed and weak, namely ,the Ten Commandments, the American Declaration of Independence and the Emancipation Proclamation. And I am convinced that when it is adopted by our Congress and is fairly and honestly tried that the Old-Age Revolving Pension Plan, conceived and Concisely written by Dr. ToYvnsend, will take its rightful place alongside of these three great historic instruments. And further, I believe that Yvhen the relentless hand of time shall have erased from the earth all eyes that now see and tongues that now speak, future generations will look back upon the pages of history and recognize and readily concede that the respective authors of these great liberal and classic documents Yvere the world’s greatest and foremost humanitarian statesmen. By his inspired Ten Commandments Moses created for the world the scales of conscience on which man can accurately weigh all matters and determine right from Yvrong and justice from injustice. Jefferson, by his Declaration of Independence, defined, and Washington with his sword defended and guaranteed to us our inherent right to civil and religious liberty. By the force of his Emancipation Proclamation Lincoln broke the chains and shackles which physically bound four million black slaves to their masters. And Dr. Townsend now proposes by his plan to free 90 million economic white slaves.

Washington Merry-Go-Round

BY DREW PEARSON and ROBERT S. ALLEN. WASHINGTON, Dec. 21. Among both Rpublican and Democratic leaders the Townsendite threat of a third party is considered bluff. The declaration is viewed as a strategical maneuver to frighten the two old parties to come to terms on the age-old pension movement. . . . The big guessing game now current in official Washington is how much money the President will for next year's relief in his forthcoming budget. Speculation ranges from zero to a high of $2,000,000,000. . . . Justice Louis D. Brandeis is a good advertisement for the profession. Although 79 years old he still has most of his own teeth. He has them examined and cleaned each month. . . . A. B. MacGregor, in charge of a Rural Resettlement nursery, was once a gardener for the King of England and J. P. Morgan. MacGregor was on the transient relief rolls when he obtained his government job. . . . William Bray, youthful secretary to Postmaster General Jim Farley, is the only secretary to a high official in the capital who knows by sight every member of Congress. Bray’s knowledge is a great service to his boss as it insures the latter of never being caught at a loss for the name of a congressional caller. . . , Signs of the times: Shoe production this year is up 3.5 per cent over last. The output of low-priced partleather and part-fabric shoes has more than doubled. a a a CHRISTMAS at the White House means an increased flow of gifts. From the time of George Washington, Presidents have been the year-round recipients of every conceivable variety of gift. When President Harding died he left a whole storeroom of personal gifts. Several trucks were needed to carry away the gifts given Coolidge and Hoover during their incumbency. Massachusetts congressmen have brought word that ex-Gov. Alvin T. Fuller, of Sacco-Vanzetti fame, is planning to seek another term on the Republican ticket next year. . . . According to figures just compiled by the Labor Department, , workers have filed suits aggregating $500,000,000 for ailments due to industrial diseases since the introduction of workers’ compensation laws in the United States. Reason for the American Liberty League’s sudden announcement that it would file with Congress quarterly statements of income and expenditures was the tip that New Dealers were planning a congressional probe of the organization’s finances League master minds hope they can forestall an investigation. a a THE personnel office of Tugwen s Resettlement Administration still is checking the credentials of “applicants” who have been holding down their jobs for months. Meantime, new workers await six and eight weeks after the job begins before getting their first pay check. ... . Uncle Dan Roper is purring with pride over the first fruits of his new trade plans with Latin America. Chile’s undersecretary of aviation will drop down from the skies next week from Santiago to buy tYvo new United States made amphibian planes for Chilean air lines. .. . Holger Cahill, big boss of Hopkins’ art projects, was born in Icelano’v Life’s biggest thrills for Cahill lie * in uncovering old American art objects. . . . Pet hobby of Nels Anderson, big boss of Hopkins’ Labor Relations, is compiling a history of Mormon settlements in Utah. As n youthful hobo, Anderson was given a job by a Mormon and later joined the Mormon church. Charley Curtis, Hoover’s Vice President, who has been taken back into the party councils, forecasts that Alf Landon will come to the convention with the largest number of pledged delegates. TVA’s Director Dave Lilienthal reports a neYV trick played by private utilities fighting extension of TVA lines. They establish a “holding station” by the simple device of unloading a Diesel generator in an area they want to preempt, a a a SOME of the President’s shrewdest political advisers want him to ease up in attacks on bankers; instead concentrate his fire on utility interests.
