WHAT IS TRUTH? Most of us today can sympathize with the

old pagan, Pilate, who asked, "What is truth?"

Perhaps there were no professional propa

gandists in Pilate's time, as there are today, but

he had heard many conflicting statements as tr a matter that interested him and he was

General Charles G. Dawes, the whirlwind i sorely perplexed

audget director at Washington, promises to give the critics of the Harding administration a solar-plexus knockout in the near future. He will demonstrate to the "knockers" that tremendous economics have been instituted and that results far beyond the most sanguine expectations of the Washington officials have been achieved during the past year. So Ipng a5 the partisan opponents of Presi

dent Harding could run wild on generalities they have been able to impress upon thoughtless people some doubt of the efficiency of the budgetary work of General Dawes and his force, but the soldier-director is not the sort of a man to sidestep an attack. He rather invites the as

sault and the counter offensive is likely to be

most uncomfortabel for his assailants.

Professional propagandists in recent years

have befuddled the public as to a good many things of more or less vital concern. Every

newspaper office is flooded with literature, both

pro and con, on a variety of subjects.

Conflicting interests,, contending forces, are

at work in all countries, and each side gives out its own version of affairs. The average man

does not know which is true, and perhaps he

has not been given the truth at all.

Is it any wonder that as he finishes read

inp the mornine or evening paper he asks, like

Pilate, "What is truth?"

A LOT OF things that were sold as securities are turning out to be less secure than they were' reputed to be.

City to Grow Number 3 in a series of statements by the Illinois Bell Telephone Company Telephone service helps a community to grow to spread out and occupy the surrounding undeveloped territory. Almost literally, telephone wires. bring outlying properties right downtown. Telephone service is the city's "partner." It is a tremendous factor in the development of outlying territory, for even though the new territory be somewhat removed, communication with any home or place of business in Hammond is instant I

No matter where you choose to live, you EXPECT to be able to obtain telephone service. And you are rarely disappointed. Had you ever realized that? V. This is true because the 1111noisBellTelephoneCompany's officials are working hard at their job of partnership with the people of Hammond. We aim to meet not only the present needs of the well-populated areas, but arc constantly looking years ahead making a business of knowing what areas will develop next and

moving in with equipment AHEAD of the people, so that we may be ready to give service when THEY come. Here is an unusual responsi- ' bility and one which we are endeavoring to meet in an adequate way. Telephone service promotes both community growth and solidarity. It transmits hundreds of thousands of messages daily messages involving every detail of human activity and endeavor, many times burdened with the gravest matters of life and countless case3 wholly dependent up6n the prompt communication afforded only by the telephone.

jThe telephone "Brings'people together" without their going! It is more than a convenience. It is a necessity. It is a part of the life 'of any community. Without it any community would not only cease growing, but would travel backward 20 years! Habits of living would change. The business and social structure would change. The Telephone Company has today in Hammond property valued at nearly a million and a half dollars to so equip itself as to meet its duty to the people of this community. Have you ever figured what telephone service is actually worth to you or have you ever wondered how such a service could possibly be furnished at the price you are paying?

Wkt The Highways Are BY GEORGE M. GRAHAM Vice President The Chandler Motor Car Co.

Think of the highways for what they are, and not elmpiy as winding rilbons between farm lands, or as merely graded surfaces of clay, grajvel, asphalt, macadam and concrete. I.jet your Imagination carry you farther and see the highway In relation to tho task It performs. The highway Is not simply a road. It is not simply a surface. , It is assurance of the civilizing influence of better communications
