ing us, we complain and the government hits him over the head, and if the consumer complains the government hits us all over the head. This can only lead to one end the government taking ovc all property so as to provide gifts for the Christmas tree. Never before in the history of the country has the government played Santa Claus on such a large scale, and never before have they bought the votes with the people's money. "In July of 1932 we reached the bottom of the depression, and in August and September of 19.32 we were on our way to recovery. In looking over the months since then, we find that the new deal has done nothing for us. I venture to say that not. one percent ol the people who voted for the new deal had the slightest idea that they were voting for a revolution. We were made to believe if we had troubles of any kind, all we had to do was to vote for the new deal, and the sun would shine down on us once again, and we would all be wearing smiles on our faces. If the worst year of our depression had not coincided with Die year of the national election, today we might be occupying places better than that of France, Great Britain or Sweden. "The party that has always advocated that the least government is the best is the parly that has multiplied the functions a the government to almost an incredible degree. "The eyes of the nation are on Indiana and the Republican party is confident that victory for us means service to them and America. "At the end of (he first fiscal year of the McNutt administration total disbursements for the state of Indiana were 14 per cent greater than that of any previous administration. Likewise the money lifted f*om the pockets of the tax payers was greatei than that of any previous administration. The administration also finished their first year with a deficit of more than a half million dollars At the end of 1934 fiscal year, expenditures reached the $60,000,000 mark for the first time in the history of the state. Previous to the present administration, the high was $52,982,245, set in 19.30 under a Republican regime. Even though the governor and his clique claim that the budget is balanced, the auditor's Looks show otherwise. "The Republican platform states "We favor the laws known as the dollar and the dollar and one-half tax law, and pledge ourselves to strike from them what is known as the emergency clause.’ The cost of living is going up at the rate of one percent each week, according to the U. S. labor department Food has increased more than .30 per rent within the last year. Farmers are now getting a little more for their products, but everything that he buys is higher, so he is no better off than before. The
A. A. I . \V. Meeting
The October meeting of tire Oreeneastle branch of the A. A. IT. W. was adressed on Tuesday evening hy Miss Marion Willoughby, who is assistant professor of costume design in Purdue university. Miss Willoughy brought with her several costumes representing the native dress of foreign peoples, and she spoke informally on the symbolism shown in costume design throughout its history. She showed how the various peoples use symbols to bring good luck, happiness, longevity, wealth, power, learning, and other blessings. There were shown models of Navajo art, good luck necklaces and beads from Moslem peoples, and embroidered caps, and aprons bearing the
various symbols.
Miss Willoughby brought costumes from the valuable collection belonging to Mrs. Charles Stuart of Lafayette, modeling them on members of the branch. The Norwegian costume, worn by Miss Veneta Hunter, had been brought from the Hardanger district of Norway, and showed the use of the swastika and of floral designs in the embroidered apron. Miss Iris Davis modelled an Italian costume, with a heavy woven apron, elaborately embroidered, black bodice, and white blouse, and showed types of headdress. The Swiss costume was purchased by Mr. Stuart in the last century. Us chief interest was in the graceful lace cap, such as would bo worn hy an unmarried girl. The bodice was decorated by heavy silver ornamentation. From Japan, Miss WiMoughby showed a heavy solid gold obi, of considerable value. She spoke of the significance of tnc rtirynsuttmTHirir-in~.4upfmesi>-design. and of the use of fans and
umbrellas.
There were shown four Chinese costumes of rare value, two women’s dresses and two of the rich embroidered costumes of the high officials. She chararterized the Chinese embroideries as the most artistic the world has ever known, and after touching upon the two chief religions of China Taoism and Buddhism - •"■he pointed out the various symbols which might be discovered in the costumes which she displayed. Among these were the fungus, or clouds, the jars of flowers, the box of hooks, the bat. the seepter, the scroll, and the pomegranate. Many ->f the costumes which were shown from the Stuart collection are quite comparable to those which would be found in the large public museums of the country, and it was an unusual exhibit for the members of the branch to examine and enjoy. 4- 4- 4* 4* 4* 4- 4* Daisy Siiiitli Brule of Hollis Berry Miss Daisy Smith, daughter of Mr. ami Mrs. William Smith, and Hollis Perry, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Perry, Greencastle R. 4. were married here Tuesday by Elder Lawrence II.

McNutt turning] the first shovelful of dirt, construction work on the central units of the | state police radio system was started today at the state fairgrounds. The ground-breaking ceremonies were held in tile presence of A! G. Feeney, superintendent of state police, who is responsible for the plan; A. M. Glossbrenner. Indianapolis, treasurer of the state police radio committee, and other state and police
officials.
(Construction of the central unit will make the second step in the fulfillment of a plan inaugurated by Keeney more than a year ago. The first step was taken last week when the Culver Military Academy radio station was acquired by the state police department. The state-wide radio system, which eventually will include five broadcasting stations located in widely separated sections of the state, was made possible largely through the efforts of the Indiana Bankers Asso-
ciation.
The bankers canvassed the state for funds, and with a $20,000 donation from the governors eqjitingent J fund, raised approximately $50,000. This amount is to be used for construction and equipping the five units. Funds for operation of the system will be appropriated at the next session of the legislature. The stations will be built like forts to protect them from criminals. Port holes, instead of windows; bullet proof glass; iron doors and floodlights will feature the broadcasting
stations.
Work on the units will be done with men on federal relief rolls and paid for with FERA funds. A large portion of the materials used will be supplied from the state penal institutions. Paul Andres, Indianapolis engineer, who designed the stations is in charge of the installation of broadcasting equipment. The station at Culver was donated to the state police department and will be used as the northwest unit of the system. New' equipment is being installed and is expected to be ready for use by the time the central unit is completed here. HR. • ARSONJSPEAMWR \ I H. S. CONVOCATION Dr. \V. W.
