htThe Northeast Qorner , I (By Bill Spurgeon) In lhe past few weeks we have found that writing a weekly column ias its distinct advantages. If memory senes, we have missed the ptst five weeks. Writing for a daily, we would have missed some thirty or thirty-five issues. Most likely we would have been asked to do our writing elsewhere. Fact is. we only missed five issues in five weeks, and we re back again —to we hope. On the Huntington Road north of town, as you leave this county and enter Elkhart County, there is a terrific bump in the road. You know, the kind that throws the unsuspecting driver right against the roof of his car. Just beyond the biimp our neighbors to the north have erected a sign saying “Welcome To Elkhart County.” Considering the jarring physical impact of entrance into the county. we (might suggest that the sign be moved this w*ay a bit and reworded “Hang On! Welcome To Elkhart County.” ★ > w High water do any" damage at your place? Last Saturday night this writer paused at the Baltimore and Ohio station to watch the noon train to Chicago.

reason, of course, was the high water in the eastern states, especially around Pittsburgh. Said high water is also held accountable for the heavy truck traffic thru this area on Highway 13—the high water being avoided in this case being that in Marshall County around Plymouth and near South ! Bend. ★ ★ ★ - Got to talking to Ed Stephenson Sunday morning about the effect of the high water on piers out in the lake. His and ou#!> both washed away during a higm wind Friday and ours was retrieved from somewhere, near Sargents Hotel. He said that’ efforts to wire it to a posh only resulted in the loss of the post. too. Just can t figure the elements! Speaking of the elements, town officials in charge of the dam and spillway at Crosson Park were really in a dilemma. Ideally, the gates should be opened when the water reaches a certain height in the local lakes. However, in our recent- condition, water was already damaging land along Tur- , key Creek to the west. Opening the | gates too soon or too wide would have resulted in even more destruc- j tion to crops and farmland. Local authorities were f inally i able tp open one gate Saturday to! relieve the pressure of rising lake j water without fear of doing more damage elsewhere. To think that four or five months ago we were worrying about low water! Savings Bond Sales Higher Than Last Year U. S. Savings Bonds sales in: Kosciusko County for August were! $108,862 as compared with $92,290 for the corresponding period last year, according to a report made by the Treasury Department to A. I. Nelson, chairman of the U. S. Savings Bonds County Committee. Sales throughout Indiana for August were $13,143,668’ and $10,830,797 for August of 1953. a gain of 21 per cent. Sixty-four of Indiana’s ninety-two counties accounted for sales increases for the month. Indiana’s Savings Bonds sales quota for 1954 was increased for to $156,400,000 from $134,000,000. for last year, an increase of 16 per cent. Despite the fact that sales throughout • the state are greatly in excess of those for the last, year for the corresponding period, several Indiana counties have been failing to meet their monthly quotas. It is believed these will improve their sales of U. S. Savings Bonds during the remainder of the year. Jack Storms, director of the Indiana U. S. Savings Bonds Division, said that Indiana as a whole con-' tinues to pile up an impressive record for its sifpport of Savings Bonds sales. He expressed the belief that the state's large quota for this year can be attained if a few counties give increased support to the government’s debt-manage-. ment program. ’

Business Is Good; Says NAM Prexy At Conclave Chicago, October 16—The prospects for expansion of the American economy are virtually limitless despite “the best advertised recession in history”.declared Kenneth R. Miller, senior vice president of the National Association of Manufactuers, in an address before the annual fall meeting-of the National Editorial Association here today. In taking issue with “the merchants of fear'*. Mr. Miller renewed the past and present of the nation's economy as indications of what the future may hold. Regarding the past. Mr. Miller said that "American individualism and the free enterprise system have been the driving forces that have distinguished the United ! States from other countries, comI bining to create “powers of pro duction that have surprised no one more than the enemies of free : enterprise.” These same qualities are solving the problems of today, Mr. Miller J pointed out. “Business is good and the country as a whole is prosperous. Construction active rose during all of August . Consumer purchases of goods and services remain high. Inventories are being liquidated and that's always a healthy sign.” Slow Moving Vehicles Con Be Hazardous Day by day public opinion mounts against slow moving vehicles on busy’ highways. Loafing along, looking, at and “buggyriding” is dangerous when mixed with higher speeds. Usually it isn’t the higher speed nor the slow speed that causes the accident but the mixture of the two on the same highway.“A little less speed in the high group and speeding up the slow drivers makes our highways safer for all.” says Indiana Traffic Safety Foundation. One particular hazard from slow vehicles is presented at intersections by vehicles entering the main traffic stream at low speeds. It takes time to get up to highway driving speeds after entering the traveled lane. Let traffic approaching closely at higher speeds pass before entering, then acelerate to normal driving speed as quickly as possible. This problem confronts I the motorist at rural road intersections and driveways ever day. Three of five fatalities involving autos occur after dark, safety experts wwn. The coming winter months bring more hours of darkness, making it necessay to be extra alert.
