Treasury Department Endorses New Post Office Building BY LOUIS LUDLOW WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 23. (Special) The South Bend postoffice building project is. given an ofiicial boost by the treasury department which has just prepared a list of cities and towns in various sections where the federal buildings are inadequate to house the federal activities. The Indiana cities included in this list are Fort Wayne, South Bend, Bloomington, Hammond, Indianapolis, Kokomo, Logansport, Mtancie. Vincennes and Terre Haute. In view of the fact an omnibus building bill will be presented at the December session of congress. The treasury department's recommendations are interesting and no doubt will have weight with congress.

1 Telling Thrusts reduce the income tax on millionaires. " In South Bend my opponent said he was standing on his record. I would siigger-t that imminent peril to life and limb might result from standing on anything so exceedingly shaky as his voting record in Congress. I guess the opposition never heard of the old French proverb, "Those who excuse themselves accuse themselves." If the voice of the people is the voice of God, then the demands ot special privilege made at the expense of the poor must be an echo from the lo.ver regions.
