8 many for me.”

Following Mr, Schricker’s address, I H. Hull, general manager of the Indiana Farm Bureau| Co-operative Association, warned | against the danger of “leaning too much on thé Government.” = - | Mr. Hull declared that through a more unified Farm Bureau the organization eventually should be able to take over much of | the program now conducted by the Government. | The bureau’s business now runs into millions of dollars yearly and it is, according to Mr. Hull, the largest single distributor of fertilizer and seed in Indiana. Credit unions have been established |in 47 of the state’s counties, Mr. Hull reported, and the bureau recently took over the Ctizens’ State Bank of Beech Grove as a loan agency to its memrs. Although he voiced | approval in general of the Administration’s farm aids, such as the Farm Security Administration and the AAA, he declared these aids should not be permanent.

Fears ‘National Socialism’ Such action, he fears, would “lead

_ to national socialism.” Most farmers today, he said, believe that advancement in their field will come almost wholly through ‘group action” and he jurged them to increase their support of the buSean and the co-operative associaion. The first talk of today's session was made by Mrs. Inez M. Scholl, State probation director, who cited Government figures showing that the fight against crime costs taxpayers $28,000 a $ninute. The responsibility for this, she said, rests with “us adults. We passed the laws” and if a youth disobeys them, it is “our fault.”

Awards Presented

Preceding Mrs. Scholl's address, Mrs. Lilly D. Scott, chairman of the bureau’s social and education department, presented awards to the following township organizations based on attendance and general efficiency of their programs: Dearborn County—Caesar Creek; Fountain County—Troy and [Cain; Jackson County—Owen, Jackson, Hamilton, Washington and| Driftwood; Madison County—Duck Creek; Montgomery County—Scott, Wainut, South Union, Madison, Ripley, Coal Creek, Wayne and South Union; Bartholomew County — German, Wayne, Sand Creek, Clay, Clifty, Columbus and Rock Creek; Clinton County—Johnson and, Madison; Clark County—Bethlehem, Silver Creek and Utica; Clinton County— Union; Hancock County—Buck Creek and Brandywine; Parke

people voted against me as

County—Greene, Jackson, Adams, Florida, Sugar Creek and Raccoon; Vigo County—Honey Creek. Mrs. Scott said that judges for the awards were county agents, county farm bureau presidents and county social and welfare. directors. Gordon Sowers of Montgomery County received the county agents’ trophy for the second consecutive year. If Mr. Sowers wins next year, the trophy will be his permanently. The award is given for the county agent having the most outstanding program in the state. This afternoon’s principal address was to be delivered by Clifford Hope, Kansas Congressman, and he was to discuss “National Agricultural Legislation.” Larry Brandon, bureau secretary, and Sam Cleland, Ft. Wayne, Ind. attorney, also were to speak. Hear Evangelist The Indiana Rural Youth yesterday elected Paul Foster, of Fountain County, to succeeed George Doup of Columbus, Ind. as president. Other new officers are: James Armstrong, Gibson County, first vice president; Larry Thie, Shelby County, second vice president; Evelyn Ricker, Rush nty, secretary, and Helen Stockheuter, Decatur County, treasurer. : The organization has 10,000 members. Addressing the convention last night, Dr. E. Stanley Jones, here for the Greater Indianapolis National Christian Mission, declared that this “country is going Communist, Fascist or Christian.” He contended that “our democracy is rooted in religion. The founding fathers did not come to America to found a democracy — they came to enjoy the free right of worship. They had no idea of democracy, and many detested it. That form came to us later out of the religious impulse.” Dr. Jones asserted that farmers are the bulwark of American democracy because they maintain a fuller home and religious life. Bartholomew Wins

With a roll of 1026, the Bartholomew County bureau, of which Clarence A. Thompson, Columbus, Ind., is president, won the membership award and also the award for the bureau with the greatest percentage of farmers represented. The Sullivan County bureau won the citation for the greatest percentage of membership gain. Zelba Drake, Farmersburg, Ind., is president of that bureau. The Edmond C. Foust trophy for outstanding work in pet and hobby clubs went to Miss Catherine Boaz of Johnson County. The awards were presented Mr. Brandon. Eight counties besides Bartholomew reported memberships exceeding 600. They were: Montgomery, 967; Jackson, 660; Clinton, 658; Rush, 634; Ripley, 617; Parke, 603;

Tippecanoe, 601, and Madison, 601.

These American Airlines stewardesses have learned their lessons in the sub-zero temperature of the clouds, and know the importance of a proper winter gasoline.

This gasoline is balanced to match its instant starting with characteristics that quickly warm

TWO HOOSIER WOMEN KILLED ON GROSSING

NEW CASTLE, Ind. Nov. 14 (U. P.).—Mrs. Flora Ward, 62, and Mrs. Jessie Kimbrough Bouslog, 49, both of near Straughn, were killed yesterday when Mrs. Bouslog drove her car into the path of a freight train at a crossing near their homes. Mrs. Bouslog drove onto the railroad tracks after an eastbound train had passed and her car was struck by an oncoming westbaund freight.

MONKS PAINT WALLS OF CATHEDRAL BLACK

ATHENS, Nov. 14 (U.P.).—The historic Cathedral of St. George, atop Mount Lycabetus overlooking Athens, was entirely black today. Bearded monks had painted its white-washed walls so that the reflection of Mediterranean moonlight would not act as a beacon for Italian bombing planes. The Cathedral thrusts its spires high from the 1112-foot high mountain and vies with the Acropolis as one of this ancient city’s landmarks. Authorities said that only by blacking the walls could they be sure Italian pilots would not use the church as a guide.

HOPSON DEALS TOO INVOLVED FOR JUDGE

NEW YORK, Nov. 14 (U. P.)— Details of how Howard C. Hopson allegedly cheated the now bankrupt Associated Gas & Electric Co. of $20,000,000 became so involved today that Judge Alfred C. Coxe said he was not sure whether he and a Federal Court jury would understand them. A maze of intertwining million dollar figures and stock juggling was ‘being unraveled by Henry A.

CONTEST LOOMS ON SPEAKERSHIP

attitude toward Republican control in the Legislature and offer resistance “when the policies of good government are impaired.” Mr. Bobbitt, in his opening speech to the legislators, referred to the “opposition in the Governor's office.” “The need for capable leadership in the Legislature is especially true because we shall lack that co-oper-ation in the highest office in the state which ordinarily is present at the beginning of the legislative session,” he said. “Other leadership must overcome this obstacle in the path of constructive legislation.” Republican members of the State Senate will hold their caucus at the Claypool Hotel tomorrow. William E. Jenner of Shoals, who was Senate minority leader during the 1937 and 1939 sessions, is said to have the inside track for nomina-

OPENS MEMBER DRIVE TUESDAY

War Generates Enthusiasm, Brandon Says; Hopes to Sign 50,000.

By FREMONT POWER

On next Tuesday between the hours of 8 a. m. and 5 p. m,, Indiana Farm Bureau representatives expect to visit every non-member farm in Indiana as part of a new membership drive. Larry Brandon, director of bureau organization, speaks of the campaign in terms of “great” and “sweeping” and “great drive.”| He says that with the present enthusiasm now being shown by farmers, the campaign very possibly Kmay overshoot its goal of 50,000 new members. When a man signs up the Farm Bureau, his family automatically becomes members, too. Assuming that the average family has | four members, Mr. Brandon estimates the present membership at 100,000. “The war is responsible for much ‘of the enthusiasm now being shown,” Mr. Brandon declared.

| Dust Bowl Followed

Farmers, he said, remember fine reaction that followed World War I and theyre determined that it won’t happen again. At that [time, much land which before then had been uncultivated was put into production to feed the war. Much of that soil never should. have | been plowed up, the evidence of this being America’s Great Dust Bowl. A precise, plain-talking | man from Auburn, Ind., Mr. Brandon says his philosophy for the American farmer is “equality.” When national economics is dsicussed, he says, the talk usually revolves around “capital and labor.” He believes it should be three-sided to include “agriculture.”

Impartial in Politics

“We don’t take side in politics,” he said, “and we don’t have a|program of opposition against either labor or capital.” That's what the Farm Bureau workers will preach when they go out next Tuesday. They have been divided into township teams |with two on a team and they're ready

to go. Mr. Brandon believes convention

Son Coming Home After 21 Years

NEW CASTLE, Ind., Nov. 14 (U. P.).—Oscar ‘Sampley of New Castle today planned a reunion with his son, Alton, for Sunday. The son and father have not met for 21 years. Alton served in the World War and returned to his home in Echols, Ky., for a short time before returning to Europe. Tuesday he telephoned his father from Los Angeles and announced he would arrive at New Castle Sunday.

their huddle, some of the G. O. P. leaders wagged warning fingers and let it be known that the Schricker move wouldn’t help the Democrats

any, or at least not much.

The ball might be stolen, they muttered, but the goal posts are going to be taken down, regardless. By that, they meant their boys in the Legislature will go right ahead next January and re-amend the Corrupt Practices Act to outlaw the Two Per Cent and all other “per cent” clubs. That way, they explained, the Democrats can't revive the club “when and if” they ever regain control of the State House. “Anyway,” one of the huddlers added, “beating us to the draw didn’t mean any noble sacrifice on their part. . “By the time our Legislature gets
