Editor and Publisher Office Phone 4 — Home Phone 904 THURSDAY, OCT. 4, 1934 r • MAIN STREET WHITTLINGS We ■ thought that the Republican party had a corner on the soldier business, but after listening to Sherman Minton, Democratic nominee for U. S. Senator, we changed our minds. He can make the American eagle scream as well as “Little Artie." The department of conservation us the state of Indiana, has adapted a new* policy. That is. all the work ' that the department does in a community, such as restocking lakes | with tish, propogation of game birds ! staking oil' of tish breeding grounds etc. will be done through local conservation clubs. The future puli- | cies of the department, and the i new game laws will be formulated in the local clubs. For these reasons, it is necessary that Syracuse have an active" conservation club with’ a large membership. The department believes in numbers and if the local club has a j large active membership this community will receive its share us the I good things that are being handed I out. At present, it is not receiving j its share of fish which it is entitled I to, due to the inactivity of the Wawasee Conservation club. Also the people of this community will be vitally affected by future legislation that is coming up before the next legislature. They should have the right to express themselves on the following: Sunday hunting, the abolishment of the closed fishing season with the provision that flats, marshes and channels be staked uff during Xthe spring and early summer, orAhe stale to be laid oil in ditiereju zones with the closed season in the zones varying somewhat acvmdirL to the elm.ate : the zone, and empowering the de- ' partment to cluse townships and ■ counties to hunting or fishing until the unit is repopulated with birds, animals or fish. The only way that this community is going to have a voice in these proposals is through a vote in an active Club. ’ The only trouble with these delightful little Fireside Chats from the White house is, that you can’t talk back to a radio. Commenting on the happy-go-lucky spirit o|f negroes in general, an officer at| the CCC camp said that one of the negroes had explained it: A white man sits down and thinks over hi* troubles and then kills himself. A negro sits down and thinks over his troubles—and falls asleep. — y- ’ HOW WORKERS PAY TAXES “Taxes are paid in the sweat of every man who labors, because they are a burden on production, and can be paid only by production. If excessive, they are reflected in idle factories, tax-sold farms, and hence in hordes of the hungry tramping the streets and seeking jobs in vain. Our workers may never see a tax bill, but they pay in deductions from wages, In increased costs of what they buy, or—as now in broad cessation of employment. * Who said that? A “Ireactionary?" An “Old Dealer?” No, Indeed! That was said by Franklin D. Roosevelt in Pittsburgh on Oct. 12, 1932. o 'w e notice they are advertising “week-end skirts for women.” Suppose they will, soon have week-end trousers for men. 0 They say Chicago is getting so good they won’t let'the oysters stay open on Sunday.

i 1 CAKE WISDOM FROM the lowly gingerbread to the luscious melting sweetness of the Lady Baltimore, there are cakes and still more cakes. There are cakes for every occasion, birthday, Christinas, wedding and christening cakes. With cake for dessert there is an Infinite variety from which to -choose. A square of gingerbread with whipped cream flavored with a bit of chopped preserved ginger and sweetened with its sirup—there is nothing equal to it. if you like ginger. Chocolate cakes seem to hold the preference, they may be rteh and luscious, full of soft rich fillings of fruit and nuts, or plain, covered with a fudge frosting, any kind, if chocolate. Is welcome. t Ribbon cake, an old-fashioned favorite. Is another pretty cake with its light and dark layers and fruity filling. Cup cakes filled with various fillings are always popular. Scoop out the center, leaving a shell thick enough to hold a chocolate nut filling or sweetened and flavored whipped cream and topped with a maraschino cherry. Chocolate cup cakes filled with a mocha or a caramel filling are especially tasty. After al! the care In ingredients, exact. measurements and careful mixing, comes the haklng. The oven should be slow for fruit cakes and those with molasses and brown sugar. Divide the time the cake should bake Into quarters. The first quarter it should r begin to rise; the second, finish rising" and begin to brown; the third, finish browning and began to shrink from the pan: the last quarter, test with a toothpick to be sure the cake Is baked to the center. Cool on a rack to avoid a moist and pasty bottom when the cake is cut If no rack Is at hand use anything ts keep the bottom of the pan free from the table. Too much flavoring is like too much perfume—in poor taste. It Is better to blend a few drops of vanilla, lemon and almond or two of any desired flavoring extracts. 0 Much Uncertainty Over Correct Plural of “Bus’* “The Listener” discussing in the Boston Transcript the plural of “bus,” Says: The approved plural of “omnibus, of which word “bus” Is a contraction, Is “omnibuses,” and by some it is assumed that the same rule applies to “bus,” but It should be evident. In the Listener’s opinion, that another rule should apply, in the case of*the contraction. The doubling of letters for plurals or for the indication of other parts of speech is Influenced by pronunciation as well as by etymology and In the case of the word “opmibus’’ the accent being on the first syllable. there is no occasion for doubling the final “s” in the plural to prevent a mispronunciation. a But in the contraction “bus” there Is distinctly occasion for the doubling, for “buses,” with the single “s’ would naturally be pronounced to rhyme with “abuses,” or “sluices.” As it is to be pronounced “busses,” It should be so spelled. The fact that “buss” in the singular may mean a kiss, as well as a vehicle for the transportation of need not Influence the case at all since in the English language there are many words which have different meanings.

THE SYRACUSE JOURNAL

DUCK HUNTERS SHOULD CHECK REGULATIONS INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Oct. 4— Hoosier duck, hunters expecting to inaugurate the opening of the migratory bird season on Thursday should familiarize themselves with the revisions in the regulations and in bag and possession limits before starting out, it was emphasized today by Kenneth M. Kunkel, Director of the Division of Fish and Game, Department of Conservation. The Indiana open season for migratory birds begins today, continuing on Thursday, Friday and Saturday for ten consecutive wegks, closing on Saturday, Dec. 8. Among changes in the regulations governing the hunting of ducks and other migratory birds this year, promulgated by the U. S. Bureau of Biological Survey, are: Every duck hunter over 16 years of age must secure a ‘duck stamp' which is to be attached to his state hunting license or permit. These stamps are obtained from postmasters upon payment of asl fee. Receipts of this stamp sale are to be used in thfe establishment of migratory bird refuges. Hunting before sunrise is illegal. Legal hunting begins in Indiana at sunrise on Thursday, Oct. 4, and continues on the speefied days for he open season from sunrise to sunset. Last year there was considerable confusion whether the season opened at noon or at sunrise on the first day of the season. The following bag and possession limits have been established by federal authorities: On canvasback, redhead, eider duck, scaup (greater and lesser), ringneck, blue and. green-wing teal, cinnamon teal, shoveller and gadwell the bag limit is five and the possession limit is ten. Last year the bag limit on hese species was eight and the possession limit was 16. On other species of ducks (except wood, ruddy and bufflehead) twelve is the aggregate and not more than five of any one. Geese and brant: Four in the aggregate of all kinds, with a limit of sot more than eight geese and brant m the aggregate of all kinds. Rails and Gallinules (except Sora and Coot, twenty-five in the aggregate of all kinds but not more than fifteen of any one species. Sora, twenty-five; Coot, twentyfive; Wilson’s or Jacksnipe, twenty, Woodcock, four with' a possession limit of twelve. Stricter enforcement of both the federal and state regulation will result this year from the co-operation >f the state game wardens with the federal game protectors. — a l— KUNKEL ASKS FOR MORE MONEY TO RUN PRISON Despite the fact that there are less inmates in the Indiana state prison at Michigan City today than n 1932, Warden Kunkel has asked for far more money to run the institution than his predecessor, Walter Daly, was granted two years ago. In October, 1932, with 2,562 inmates, Warden Daly had available by legislative grant $533,525 for what proved to be his last year at the prison. For the 1935-36 fiscal year, Kunkel has asked $886,756, although on Sept. 15 of this year the prison population was 2,372, or 190 less than when Daly was in charge. Despite the fact that there is a reduced prison population today Kunkel has 185 employes on the prison payroll where Daly needed but 171. ' , Under Kunkel the prison has had two major breaks within a year and a total of 41 escapes since he became warden. Os the SBBO,OOO appropriation asked for the next fiscal year, Kunkel plans to use $324,000 of that sum for making the prison ‘more escape proof/' by structural work. With the structural work completed during the 1935-46 fiscal year Kunkel finds that he would need $681,756 for the 1936-37 fiscal period, or an increase of more than SIOO,OOO over Daly's 1932 appropriation.

DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH | I 1 I Recently Secretary Ickes was reported as saying that two percent j of the people own 80 per cent of the ■ wealth in the United States. Ai}J other statement made by a federally j appointed committee is that one per- ; cent of the people own 60 per cent jof the wealth. Countless other simii lar statements have been made from time to time, yet no one provides any basis for them. One is inclined to ■wonder why. The answer is probably supplied by Col. L. P. Ayres, the economist and statistician, 'who says nobody knows how much property any percentage of people hold because there are no official statistics on the ; distribution of wealth. He even goes so far as to say that no one can make even an approximaton of the truth. He points out that we do have considerable fragmentary information about the distribution of income.' A careful study of income n 1929 was made by three students of sdeh matters and Colonel • Ayers thinks it is the closest approximation that can be made. This study showed the following income grades: Richest 10th of population—34.6 percent of income. < Next 10th of population—l3.l peri cent of income. '■ Next 10th of population—lo. 3 per- } cent of income. Next 10th of population—B.9 percent of income. Next 10th of population—7.7 percent of income. Next 10th of population—6.7 percent of income. Next 10th of population—s. 9 peri cent of income. Next 10th of population—s. 2 percent of income. Next 10th of population—4.s percent of income. Last 10th of population—3-1 percent of income. The distribution of income is much more important to the well being of the nation than the distribution of wealth but many people fail to distinguish between the two things. Wealth s very often unproductive ' while income is money that can be spent. But when Sec. Ickes said that ■ two per cent of the people own 80 'percent of the wealth it created the | impression that a few people have ! about all the money in the United i States. Certainly there is a lot of , difference between two percent own- | ing 80 per cent of the wealth and the 1 richest 10 per cent receiving 34.6 ' percent of the income. ‘ It is fairly evident there is too 1 great a discrepancy between the , highest and the lowest income J groups. That was brought out in I the Bookings Institution study which we discussed yesterday. An improvement must be made in the distribution of income so that our mass production methods can continue to provide a better living for everyone. But if we are to get that improvement it must be on a basis ‘of fact rather than rumor and ballyhoo. Secretary Ickes was dealing in ballyhoo when he guessed how much of our wealth the richest two percent own. He didn’t have the slightest idea what the amount is but there is always plenty of rumor at hand for a too willing speechmaker,—Gary Past-Tribune.
