SAL’S OUR GAL

Memories of the 1933 Worlds lair came back recently when police in Omaha, Neb., the old meanies. t<*'k Sally Rand into custody after she had' given her famed fan dance in a night club. Sally’s now 61, which takes her out of the spring chicken class, and it’s our contention, as it probably is a lot of other jHH'ple s. that if Sally can still do a tan dance and still attract an audience doing it. she should be given a medal, not a citation to court 7 i . As we remember Sally back in 1933, she wasn’t any more naked behind her

By DON FRANTZ County Agriculture Agent THE WEEK OF July 25-31 has been designated as Farm Safety Week.’The task .of farm safety .is a of fanning is ever changing. I The •problem of sal h . Utog of livesfa ' ■ alien ago Thus now ‘ become less important and the job of safety with machinery. chemicals/ ek-ctncal.-power, and fjuvls have become paramount. . Farm tractors claim about 40 to 50 lives a year in Indiana and nearly two-thirds of these are results of the tractor overturning. Tractors are designed for power, not speed. land many accidents are caused by tjurning too short and too. fast on a slope. Tractors are also not made for passengers and many non-fatal accidents result from falls. !Tbe modem day tractor with its great power, needs a mature, strong operator Well over half the deaths are under 20 and over 60. ••• • • CHEMICAL ARE NOW a part of farming and while they are thoroughly tested and adequately labeled, they can be a real hazard in; the hands of a careless person. Here are a few simple rules for using them. Follow the instructions to the letter Extra heavy dosages or improper mixtures not only are dangerous, they can also result in doing a poor job - , I If the instructions call for a mask or special clothing, then use them and be sure to wash before eating or smoking. Most chemicals are a Controlled poison in a quantity that should be safe, but if ' the recommended rate is ignored, the satcty factors may no longer apply J One of the more serious violations that I have seen in using chemicals, is in the storing of them. They ought to be put away in a safe place and properly labeled.

CAPITOL O COMMENTS k by Senator Vance Elt» HARTKE Let's Keep Prosperity Rolling

By SENATOR VANCE HARTKE I don’t suppose most people have any interest in the International Monetary Fund- But everyone I know has an interest in prosperity. We all have a stake in seeing to it that our unbroken prosperity of the last 44 years continues. Last year, for example, our income in Indiana went up to an average 1 of $2,544 for every man, woman, and child—slo7 more than the year before. We want to keep it going up. But there are problems, and what happens in other parts of the world can hurt us at home. Japan, which has had such tremendous advances in recent years is now having what might be called a depression. With international trade what it is, any country with such. problems needs cooperation from the rest of us or we will also be headed downhill. ’ people may remember that in the Great Depression of the ’3O s our: lack of income." production, and employment were shared. Today all depressions are international: Perhaps you have read some of the news accounts about gold leav-

ing the country. Other nations — France in particular—have been turning in dollars they own for gold. ■ At the same time, we have tried to . stop spending so many' dollars a- • broad. But this may also leave 6th- : er countries short of the kind of money—dollars and pounds—which : keeps international trade working freely. If international trade slows down, it could slow up prosperity both here and in other countries: A Senator—especially when he works on such committees as Finance and Commerce—■often has to look beyond his own state and even this country. So I have just proposed, together With Senator McCarthy, some important changes in the International Monetary Fund involving the use of our gold "supply to help keep international trade strong. There are plenty of details and I think our proposal may be a most . important help to the world’s economic health, including our own. In tlie k>ng run. wiiat we do for the nation and for the world will be felt ndiana. I want to see our prosperity continue to grow.

The proposed tax levy for Turkey Creek township will drop ten cents per SIOO taxable valuation from the current levy, according to the township budget published in this issue. The proposed levy is 28 cents, as opposed to the current levy of 38 cents. The Reason Why The township has made its final payment on the new fire station on south Huntington street, and on the new township fire trucks, according to trustee Madison F. Jones, causing the tax levy to drop. The new fire station, built in 1961, cast the township about $15,000 per year, and over $4,000 per year was [ being paid on the fire trucks. • Tht proposed levy for fire protection is 24 cents per SIOO valuation, which will raise $28,291. while the levy for the current year was 33 cents, which raised $43,500. 1 "We’re happy at the\ progress we’ve f made in-paying off the fire station ‘ and fire trucks.” trustee Jones stat-
