(Conlinued I-'rom I*iiko One) legislature to highway survey commission report asserting hat highway improvement is not keeping pace with increases in motor transportation and urges enactment of provisions of report into law. The report assailed diversion of motor vehicle taxes to other purposes.
8. Safety. Recommends favorable consideration of report made by governor’s committee on public safety, which would increase the state police patrol force and establish greater “driver responsibility.” This is also favored by Governor-elect Townsend. 9. Conservation. Continuance of close co-opcration with the federal government to save natural resources. 10. Labor. Remove “physical hazards. ... It is just as important to prevent injury as to provide compensation”: enlargement of an inquiry into working conditions in mines employing less than 10 men and a “careful investigation’ ’to determine steps to assist the coal mining industrv. 11. Administration of justice. Passage of certain acts on evidence, extradition an 1 civil actions to make Indiana statutes uniform with those of other states to expedite legal procedure. Alio reconsideration of the popular nomination and election of local judges which McNutt termed “Americe’s most colossal blunder in statecraft.” McNutt repeatedly referred to Indiana as having been in the vanguard of states which followed the lead of the federal government in corecting governmental evils which he asserted had existed for decades in some instances. “The credit of the state is better than at any time in its history,” he said. He assumed a Rooseveitian tone when he asserte i: ‘ Public utilities had their hands on the throats of conrumers. . . . small investors were at the merry of finance companies.” At times McNutt turned philosophical. once with the scornful statement: “The nation and state met the emergency and evolved from that experience a permanent program of social seeuritv based on the philosophy that the right to live implies the right to have the means to sustain life, without which liberty is a mockery and happiness a sham.” The state’s forme- methods of handling seciai seeuritv were “fifteen years behind the times,” McNutt said, observing that within the year “43.000 depedent aged persons, 1,000 needy blind persons, and 20.000 dependent child-en will be assisted through the public welfare act.” Relative to “false economy” the governor remarked: “In our zeal and anxiety to balance the budget we
have come dangerously close to forgetting some of the human values and social responsibilities which lie behind the budget and for which, indeed, the budget exists. Unless the interests which have to do with the bodies, minds and spirits of men, women and children are safeguarded, economic recovery will prove a barren achievement. It is quite as important to prevent social deficits for the future as it is to prevent financial deficits for the present.” “There is no public welfare problem in the state today so acute as that relating to the care of the feeble minded,” McNutt said, adding that institutions were crowded and have
waiting lists.
Concerning the state's taxation problem, McNutt’s most significant assertion was: "Fortunately the unencumbered balance in the general fund, together with anticipated revenues, is ample to take care of all these (public) matters, fulfill all the state’s obligations during the biennium, met the state’s proper share of the cost of social security, repay the highway commisison the $2,000 000 illegally transferred to balance the budget in 1932 and in addition provide a sufficient working balance without levying of new taxes. The state of Indiana does not need new taxes and I am unalterably opposed to any proposal to levy them. “Our object should be to reduce the load on present sources of revenue rather than seek new sources. An efective step in reducing the cost of government and in turn the load on sources of revenue would be to require by law an effective pre-audit of public expenditures. I would recommend such action at this action.” McNutt concluded with a ringing tribute to the fellow officials and citizens of Indiana with whom “he had the high privilege of co-operat-ing,” and expressed himself as “profoundly grateful for their sympathetic counsel, friendship, the manifestation of their confidence and their loyal support.” After McNutt’'s address the legislature was to adjourn until Monday morning when the inauguration of Townsend In the rotunda of the state capitol building will occur. Townsend will address the assembly either Tuesday or Wednesday after which the session will have completed its formalities and can plunge into the welter of personal bills expected to
be introduced.

DOGS TRAINED FOR WAR
BERLIN, (UP) — Dogs of many breeds arc being trained for use with the army in a school near Berlin. Whippets are trained to carry messages from behind the lines to tanks in “no man’s land.” They are able to find any particular tank and safely deliver a message, it is said.

SCHOOL OF EXPERIENCE CLOSED TO GRADUATES BREKELEY. Cal., (UP) — The “lost generation” is at last coming into its own, provided it has equipped itself educationally, according to job-placing officials of the University of California. They report that it is no longer possible to fill the ranks in various professional fields caused by the thinning out of the older men and the demand for properly equipped young men to take their place. Depression unemployment, officials say, closed the “school of experience” for many young men and women ready to enter business. Employers have been unable to hire sufficient new help to insure adequate and continuous supply of experienced men and women needed to step into the gaps left vacant by retiring veterans. Under the circumstances, they say. both employers and employes are turning to formal training of a sort that could reproduce in the classroom the experience of the office. Occupational courses are in great demand at the university, it is said. As evidence that employers already feel the shortage of trained help, Miss Bernice Hubbard, class secretary of the University of California extension division and who is in charge of finding positions for students, cites the instance of the National Institute of Credit, which during the past few years has not been able to fill the thinning ranks of older men and women. As a consequence officers of the institute requested extension courses in credit management to serve us apprenticeship for prospective emnloyes. The institute is a division of the National Association of Credit Men. Other similar types of training have become exceedingly popular at the university. Among these arc air conditioning, radio communication, reinforced concrete design, practical speech making, business letter writing and distillation equipment.

Sijjiis Of The Time By RAY E. SMITH
EVERETT MITCHELL
What kind of a man is M. Clifford "ownsend? As he will become gov■mor of Indiana on January 11, this s a question in the minds of many dtizens who have not had the privi’ege to know him personally. | "hrough personal contacts with him vnd his neighbors and associates in the recent campaign, your corres- ! pondent became well acquainted with | the governor-elect. Some of the out- j standing qualities of Mr. Townsend will, therefore be recounted here.
Mr. Townsend is a true son of the soil. His father was a tenant farmer and his education was interrupted during his boyhood he had to help with the farm work. After graduating from high school, he taught in the rural schools in the winter time and attended the Marion Normal college in the summer. Being a poor boy, his struggle for an education was marked by privation. The greatest lesson he learned then—the value of a dollar—has never been forgotten. He is still thrifty, and while not being parsimonious, he does not waste money.
At the age of 25, Mr. Townsend v/as unanimously elected superintendent of the Blackford county schools. He resigned after ten years to take up farming. At present he owns and directs the operation of a farm southwest of Marion, in Grant county. His first elective office was in 1923 when elected as joint representative from Grant and Blackford counties. His greatest activity in the general assembly was for tax justice. He became a student of taxation.
Mr. Townsend became a leader in farm bureau affairs and for three years was an organizer for the Indiana Farm Bureau Federation. Traveling about the state he made many friends and his popularity was ever increasing. It resulted in his nomination and election as lieutenant governor in 19.32. His fine record, particularly in bringing the state fair out of the red, and his growing popularity elevated him to the governorship.
The governor-elect is a real farmer. Even during the busy days of the campaign he found time to visit his farm. The writer has even heard him say, “I’m the happiest when I’m with my hogs and cows.” This statement, of course, is accompanied by his broad and winning smile. Mr. Townsend likes people. He is happy when meeting them. He has a keen sense of humor and always has a story at his tongue’s tip. People like him because he is good company.
Another quality enters into Mr. Townsend’s popularity. He is just one of the folks. His neighbors take pride in telling his success and how Cliff comes back to the neighborhood -the same Cliff who worked with them in the threshing ring, the same Cliff they knew at farm bureau meetings, and at butcherings, and at public sales, etc. Being lieutenant governor and elected governor hasn't gone to his head, his neighbors and friends say. They love him for this quality of humbleness.
Honesty, too, Is one of Mr. Townsend’s virtues. And being honest he is fair in all things. He is always ready to give as much, or more, than he received. In the threshing ring back in his farming days, he was the first to pay his account. He is a firm believer that righteousness will orevail and would not consider any thing of a shady nature “just because *t isn’t right.” He is a man of high character who loves him family dearV. and who would not trade the respect of his fellow men for all the gold in the nation.
Just as he has been well thought of, respected and admired by his neighbors, friends and associates, vour correspondent predicts that luring bis administration he will become endeared to the citizens of Indiana. He will be a second Samuel M. Ralston, being endowed with all those attributes of fairness, honesty and thriftlnec.a. IPs administration will be an economical one. It will be marked by a minimum of political upheaval, for he prefers calmness. The Townsend administration will be an era of good feeling in which the “good neighbor” policy will predominate.
