CAUTIONS AGAINST FENCE ROW FIRES

The practice of burning fence rows to destroy plant growths that may harbor crop-destroying insects is costing Hoosier farmers more than $300,000 a year in damage to fence posts and telephone poles, the State Conservation Department estimated today. In addition, the burning of fence rows is destroying nests of insectfeeding birds and rabbits, the department said. While many farmers feel it necessary to fire the rows to kill insect pests, the department observed, in the days when the rows

were not burned, orchards produced [Re

wormless apples without spraying.

powerful campaign appeal in the early days of depression a new na-

nishes some evidence that this type of appeal has lost much of its potency—that to advocate cuts in Federal spending is not as politically dangerous as many people have thought. Heretofore, many politicians took the view that while the public might be against spending in the abstract, the voters were always glad to approve spending programs in their own® localities. |

Economy in Favor

There is no conclusive proof that this attitude of voters is not still present, for much depends on the nature of the spending and the type of locality. But the survey does indicate a reasonable doubt that this feeling continues to exist. In fact, a majority of voters say that, other things being equal, they would prefer a candidate who promised to cut Federal spending rather than a candidate who promised to bring more Federal money into their state. The survey was taken by the Institute for the purpose of discovering just what voters would say if confronted with two candidates, one promising more money for the state, and the other advocating economy. The issue was stated specifically as follows: “Suppose there were two candidates for United States Senator in your state. One candidate promises to vote to reduce all Federal Government spending. = The other promises to vote to spend more Federal Government money in your Other things being equal, which eandidate would you vote for?” One in Eight Silent

Emmert Charges State : Institutions Mismanaged

‘Times Special " CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., March 7.—States penal and correctional institutions are mismanaged, Judge James E. Emmert, Shelbyville, Republican candidate for Governor, charged in an address here. Judge Emmert spoke at City Hall last night ‘under. auspices of the Sixth District Emmert-for-Governor Club. “Wholesale and living costs have declined approxithately. 16 per cent since 1929,” he said, “but because of inefficiency and mismanagement, Indiana taxpayers are not gelding the benefit of it. “With the Indiana Gang in power, we have n ‘per capita maintenance costs increased from 8 per cent at the State Reformatory at Pendleton to 40 per cent at the State Farm at Putnamville and during a time when economic conditions warranted a decrease. Perhaps the recent trouble at the Reformatory over narcotics. gives some indication why costs have gone up. while quality of personnel” has gone down.” Judge Emmert said that State Welfare Department statistics showed that the five penal and correctional institutions in the State cost the taxpayers $271,410 more now than in 1929. de said there should have been a 16 per cent decrease, based on the deerease in living costs.
