The Mayor And His Rights It seems to be the general opinion of everyone who has anything to do with the current strike at the Amolt plant at Pierceton that Warsaw Mayor Mike Hodges was definitely out of place by escorting a bus load of strike-breakers into, the plant Monday morning. The bus originated at Fisher Field in * Warsaw and brought 17 workers into the strike-bound Pierceton plant. That action is all right, but the position of the Warsaw mayor in the incident is not understood. His jurisdiction lies wjthin the city of Warsaw and nowhere else in Kosciusko county.

Federal Spending Can Be Cut

Congress has ample opportunity in the budget requests still to be acted on to reduce federal spending enough to pay for a tax which is being urged in growing volume to pep up the economy. This was brought out in an appraisal of the progress of Congressional actions on money bills by the Council of State a Chambers of Commerce. The report said: “If the Congress feels that taxes must be reduced soon but only if spending is also reduced, there is ample opportunity to do both by cutting the budget requests it has

SEN. HARTKE and TELESTAR — Senator Vance Hartke (D-lnd.) gets a close-up look at an exact replica of the Telestar communications satellite now circling in space, making possible this week’s historic televising of part of President Kennedy’s news conference to Europe. Senator Hartke says he favors private enterprise oper-

been completed as yet. The Purdue Swine Day program will be held August 17 at the livestock experimental farm. The morning program will consist of tours of the swine farm to see various feeding trials. The afternoon program will be held at the Hall of Music. One of the things that will be discussed is the possibility that this serious pig disease called transmissible gastro-enterites, we call it TGE, could be carried by starlings. This hasn’t been proved but there is evidence. Last year I contacted a number of cattle and hog producers to see if they would take part in a survey to try to find out how mnch of a loss is caused by starlings. This survey was completed and almost everyone who was asked for infosmation did give it. This is an evidence of the interest in the problem. They have really descended in hordes upon some of our

ations in space communications, such as this spur-million dollar American Telephone and Telegraph Company effort making possible international radio, television and telephone communications. President's Monday news conference was timed to coincide with an orbit of Telestar putting it in position to handle telecast.

Even then, it would be good reasoning that the spirited mayor remain aloof of any strike action, and let his duly authorized chief of police handle the matter. It was later learned, besides escorting the bus into the Pierceeton plant, mayor Hodges wanted to call the governor and get state police on the scene “to prevent any violence.” There was no violence and will be no violence providing the Warsaw mayor remain in Warsaw and let Pierceton town police officers and the county sheriff do stand-by duty in this touchy strike.

yet to consider.” Some of “the most likely areas for reduction” cited by the council report include foreign aid, Rural Electrification funds, public works and new spending proposals. The Council report labeled as “the myth of the 1930’5” the idea that expanded government spending is the road to economic growth. It suggested it is “high time that Congress disassociate itself from the policy based on the myth.”

feed lots in the winter time and I hope that the men who are doing . research work on their control ■ will find some solutions. ; Silos need maintenance, too, just > as any other farm structure. • Leaks in the’walls will certainly s cause spoilage. There are several materials on the market including . a new one called epoxy and is ; highly recommended as a sealer of badly pitted walls. It is expensive , but good. I would estimate it costs over S2OO to treat an average silo. There are other materials called 4-Y-I or C-77 that do a good job and cost about half that of the first one named. They are not as effective. The older methods of the "cement wash” or use of linseed oil are helpful too. Be sure, however, to have pure linseed oil, not a mixture. We will write a leaflet on silo treatment and have it available at the county extension office if you would want further information on materials and costs.

There are some unusual things happen when the cities spread out and corn fields suddenly become housing developments or chicken farms become golf courses. We have only had a touch of it here but enough to see the change take place. One of the things that has not happened here is zoning authority over all the county. This will come some day. But as the cities grow and spread, some unusual things happen. There is a city in Los Angeles county, Calif., called Dairy City. It is incorporated and therefore cannot be annexed. Most all the residents of Dairy City are cows. Holland, Mich., has as a paH of town, quite a bit of farmland- : Twice the residents have asked to be "de-annexed” and

twice the proposal has been defeated in a vote. The farm-land remains a part of the town. There are getting to Be a number of places in the rapidly growing areas where farmers have created zoning ordinances that would prevent their being taken in by some town. Migration, . urbanization and population growths are not just some passing fancy. Planning in this area of social change is unpopular but as crowding becomes more common, community planning becomes more palatable.

DON’T TALK UP TROUBLE

Dear Amy: I need some advice before I go crazy. Before I was married I never talked much. I usually read most of the time. My husband and I are living with his parents until we get our house built. My mother-in-law thinks I should talk to her all the time. I don’t have time, especially now that I have a baby. If I don’t talk to her all the time she starts crying and asks me what she has done to me. My husband found out that we weren’t getting along and told her to leave me alone. Now she doesn’t talk to me unless it is necessary. What do you think I should do? Nervous Wreck Dear Nervous: I think you should leave well enough alone! • « • Dear Amy: Since we first came to this city, almost six years ago, I’ve been ill most of the time. Consequently our social life is very limited (except when my husband and I go out alone). I haven’t made “close” friends with my neighbors because of their constant questions concerning my sickness (which I want to forget). However, I have a “dear” friend whom I met during my hospitalization. She and I hit it off right away and we talk about everything, except illness. She lives a good distance from me so we cannot get together as we would like to. She has 4 children, including a baby 15 months of age. The problem is I ieel that every phone call I make to her is nothing but an interruption of the many chores she has to do. She hasn’t mentioned this, I just feel that way within myself. Sometimes Iricall her three and four times a week and I hate myself for being such a pest! But whenever anything occurs, she’s the one I think of, right away. I’m arguing Wittj myself as to whether 1 should bother her or pot. I try so hard to reduce the-nmnber of calls to her but I usually lose and before I know it I have her On the phone. What Can I do to keep this valued friendship and stop becoming an annoyance to her? She has never intimated such a thing but I have that feeling all the time. Dial Happy

Little Chats ON Public Notice By James E. Pollard Copyright 1960 BUDGET HEARINGS (No. 48 in a Series)

Most taxpayers like to complain about what they regard as high taxes. Whenever it is proposed to increase taxes, there is talk that taxes ought to be reduced instead of raised. The taxpayer rarely stops to count up what he gets for his tax dollar in the way of schools, services and improvements. . In many localities, xinclfitiing both school districts .and municipalities, the? provides for public notice to be given whenever next year’s budget is up for- adoption. Opportunity is ihtfs given for citizens and taxpayers to attend theses meetings of the School boartd or city council. If they did attend they could ask questions or register objections, if so inclined. The sad fact is that few voters take the trouble to attend such hearings. Three such notices, published in accordance with the law in newspapers of general circulation, call this situation to mind. Onpr was for the proposed tax budget of a city of some 5,000 population for the coming fiscal year. Another had to do with the proposed budget for a township board of education, and the third concerned the tentative budget for air exempted village school district. The last said that two copies of the budget were on file in the office of the district clerk for prior inspection. Citizens are pretty much alike in their seeming apathy toward such matters. But it is important to note that where proposed budgets of this kind are involved, the law requires published notices in newspapers. This is a basic part of due process which is so important to the American way of life. Failure to respond when such public notice is given is the voters’ or taxpayers’ loss and in no way weakens the principle of public notice. ’First Ladies Coffee' At State Fair

A “First Ladies’ Coffee” will be held at 9:30 a. m. on Ladies’ Day at the 1962 Indiana State Fair Friday, August 31. Mrs. Matthew Welsh, wife of the governor, Mrs. Richard Ristine, wife of the lieutenant governor, and other “first ladies” from all over the state will be serving coffee to ladies visiting the state fair on the day.

Dear Dial Happy: Perhaps your feelings are justified. A woman with four children to care for has little time to spend on the phone. Save all your news for a ‘once-a-week’ call and check with her when would be the best time to chat. It would be less costly on your part and less interrupting on her’s. • • • Dear Amy: I have been going with this boy for a long time and have suddenly found I don’t like him anymore. I have broken up with him once by writing him a note. I don’t want to write another note. How would you suggest that I tell him I don’t like him without hurting him?. Pauline Dear Pauline: If he still cares for you, he will be hurt no matter how you tell him. But tell him anyway—the best way you know how. There's no sense in leading the boy on if you prefer the company of others. - Dear Amy: I am going out with a very nice girl whose parents are somewhat strict. The girl is 17 and I am Iff, but her parents think I am too old for her and that she is too young to go out on single dates. And, Amy, when we do go out, what is the proper time for me to bring her home? This girl works 6 days a week and doesn’t come home till 8 o’clock on Fridays and Saturdays. Harry Dear Harry: • ■ ' I don’t think you are too old for her nor is she too young to single date. Since her parents are strict (in which case I respect them and so should you) your best bet is to ask THEM what time you should bring her hornet • ♦ • PERSONAL TO Betty: When a girl has reformed, it isn’t necessary for her to air her ‘soiled linen' with anyone. Leave the skeletons in the closet and throw away the key! • ♦ * Please address all letters to: AMY ADAMS c/o THIS NEWSPAPER For a personal reply enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope.
