“This sum was not available dur ing the 1930 building season, John J. Brown, director, said. “On September 1, there was made available for allocation $3,172,252. And it "ill he available for disbursement until July 1, 1931, hut already the commission i.- filing specifications with federal engineers asking for the allocation of several thousand dollars each week. "The federal fund will be absorbed” ' Brown said, "as fast as highways de- ' partment engineers complete and sub j mit surveys for federal government approval on bridge and paving projects.” The report ■•jid there was $5,299,-1 881.78 of federal unobligated on October 1.

The Johnson Reality vs. The (jillen Myth The Terre Haute Post of Oet. 29 and Oct. 31 ^ Says:

Article I—The Gillen Myth. •SCENTING a 'hamce for victory for the first time in many .years, the Democrats of ihe Fifth District are centering their energies in a drive to “bout Noble Johnson for Congress.” Headed by the Werneke machin» in Vigo County and working in harmony with it us never before, the Democratic organizations In the various counties are militant and hopeful this time, whereas in the oast few congn donal campaigns their activities have been perfunctory and without qiirit. Lacking an outstanding candidate when McFadden of Rockville declined to make the race, despite urgent implorings from the. “be-t minds” of the party in the district, the Democrats have done the next best thing and have attempted to build up a “strong man” myth about the candidate that they do have—-Mr. Courttaiid C. Gillen of Greencastle. Recognizing that Mr. Gillen \v:. • unknown outside his home community, with no record of servic< in public office and no record of achievement in any other line to make him outstanding even in hi- own county, they have been forced to resort to subterfuge to “sell” their candidate to the electorate. Regarding Mr Gillen we are told that he is an "expert” on the farm problem; that he is a “deep student of governmental affairs,” and also that he is an "expert" on labor problems. Mr. Gillen is a lawyer in Greencastle, no more successful or notable than hundreds of others in Indiana. He was reared on a farm, but left the soil when he went to school, like mamy another farm boy who hula* come a lawyer, and he ha* not been engaged in farming since. In Just what manner he qualifies as a farm problem "expert ’ is not explained. 1 'l The Democratic candidate may be a “deep student of governmental affairs," but his particular aptitude in that line is not demonstrated in any concrete fashion. He has written mo books, delivered no lectures, taught no classes on governmental problems, one of which we might expect from any reputed “deep student” of such problems; and Jn* has never dealt with governmental problems first hand. The myth is equally intriguing in regard to Mr. Gillen’s alleged expeitness in labor problems. Again, the record is bare. He has never been engaged in solving labor problems, has -never been confronted with a labor problem, and has scarcely seen a labor problem in practical operation, for his home city is a college town, rural in atmosphere and with no industries out of which a labor problem might grow. The Democratic candidate has been making an active campaign ever ♦ he district, talking on both state and national problems, and soliciting votes on the usual Democratic offer of faith. He has offered nothing original as an issue in the campaign. On the liquor question, over whieh the Democrats are making much this Fall in some sections of tho county, he is silent, but he is known to lie a dry, which is quite natural as he hails from a dry county, but his Vigo County followers are passing out the word, for the benefit of the liberals in the party in Terre Haute, theAhe really D wet and is only pretending to be dry out of defence to opinion among the faithful at home. His previous experience in politics has not been particularly happy. I-ast year he ran for councilman in Greencastle. The Democrats elected the mayor and the rest of their ticket, but Mr. Gillen was defeated. His supporters explain that his own ward was a Republican ward, but they do not explain how it happened that the DemooatlC.candidate for mayor carried it nevertheless. Mr Gillen is a respectable citizen in a respectable community. He i a church member and a l.’otarian, having been more or less active in the affair.- of the Rotarv organization. Th"re never has been any urg ent call for his services fiom his party or his city, and he is in this par ticular congressional campaign because the fortunes of politics prevented the Democrats of the Fifth District from running the man the;, really wainted to run. Stripped of tho “strong man" myth that his followers have tried to raise about him we find only a small city lawyer who naturally would like to sit in Congress. We do not find a prodigy of any sort whose light has been hidden uinder a bushel. —Paid Political Advertisement.

Article II—The Johnson Reality. IN SEEKING re-election to Congress from the Fifth Indiana DV; trie Noble J. Johnson i running on a reputation already established and not on one in prospect He is now serving his third term in I :igress, having been elected the first time in 1924. He succeeded Everett Sanders, who had voluntarily retired to become private secretary to President Coolidge, and his nomination, that year was without opposition. .Mr. Sanders had been an outstanding congressman, giving the Fifth District a great deal of prestige, and a rather large burden was thus thrown on his successor. How well Noble Johnson measured up to the task is well told, in Mr. Sanders’ own words. Speaking at Clinton the other night Mr. Sanders said that on account of Johnson being his immediate successor ho had naturally watched his career closely and with much interest, and ho added that lie had never seem a man “who ascended to prominence in the House with the rapidity and sureness of Johnson.” Mr. Johnson was “lected by a record vote in 1924, and in 1920 he made a clean sweep of the district, cam ing Putnam County, which iie had lost by a few votes two years before, by a majority of 409. This majority in Putnam, regarded as a Democratic county, was raised to 745 in 1928, when Mr. Johnson again won a sweeping victory. Noble Johnson was widely known in his own county and cl-< where 1 before he entered Congress by reason of a splendid record In tho proscutor’s office. In 1922 he wa* re-elected to that office when all the other Vigo County Republicans met defeat, a fact that was a tribute to his own personal popularity which has always extended beyond party lines. This personal popularity has been only increasoil b> Mr. Johnson’s record in Congress. He has served his district efficiently aod 1 lively and without marrow nolitical bias. The welfare of his district habeen his first consideration. The Democrats of the district as well as the Republicans have known that their home* communities have a friends at the capital so long as Mr. Johnson is there. Ho has performed personal services for thousands of his constituents since going to Washington. There is an old saying among politicians that the longer a man is in office the more enmities he incurs, but this has not lieen the cast* with the Fifth District congressman. His friendships have increased as the years have gone by, and if he has any personal enemies they have failed to attract any public notice. As a congressman Mr. Johnson has supported tho farm relief measures that have come before th<* House, he has inaugurated legislation looking to Mood control and improvement of the Wabash River, and he has proved himself a friend of labor. He has the official indorsement of the American Federation of latbor, given on his record in Congress and not on any mere promise of friendship. He is «n advocate of the five-day week and the sixhour day for the workers of the country as a means of relieving unemployment aud he is an advocate of old-age pensions. With Mr. Johnston in Washington this .district has been well represented by a man experienced n national affairs; a man outstanding in his own party and his community f or many years; a man whose qualities are known. The voters of the district know for whom they the voting in supporting Noble Johnson, and they know also that practical experience and not readiness to promise great things are impossible of fullfillment is what is needed at the present time. Mr. Johnson’s followers make no claim that their can^Jate is a supermoin of any soil. He knows national problems and how they can he handled through his own direct contact with them. He knows the “ropes" at Washington, as the saying is, and it oftentimes tak. a new * congressman a long time to find his way about in the national capital, his district thus being virtually without a represenative until he gains the experience necessary to be of some service. Mr. Johnson has proved himself trustworthy undef the great responsibility of representing the Fifth District. Because of his known qualities and his experience in public office, and because of his natural leadership which has caused his party to seek his services, hi.* supporters do not find it necessary, as in the caof his Democratic opponent, to build up any myth about him. There is no Noble Johnson myth, but there i- a Noble Johnson reali'y, and it is on this reality that his supporters are basing their confident prediction that he will be re-elected to Congress next Tuesday.
