SYRACUSE PUBLISHING COMPANY, INC., PUBLISHERS F. Allan Weatherholt, Editor THURSDAY, SEPT. 24, 1936 - ’ — A HOOSIER PHILOSOPHER Once Said *■■■■■ That Thomas Edison once said, “The American people will go to any extreme to avoid the necessity of thinking.” Notwithstanding that fact—think! Many, many things were accomplished in the last 12 months, but that s ancient history. There are a lot of other things you could have done—that’s ancient history too. It isn’t what you did or didn’t do in ’3s—it’s what you are going to do in 1936 that counts now. And what are you going to do—same as in 1935? If you do, you are going to go against every law of progress. If you don’t change, you will be through—not all at once, to be sure, but you can’t go forward standing still, and if you don’t do better in 1936 you’ll be where you were in ’35, and that’s standing still —or going backward. This reads like a sermon. It isn’t meant that way. It’s just our }>eculiar way of leading up to this— If, in ’35, you sort of went back on Syracuse; if you leaned back with any of your 100-wom-out alibis and let the other fellow do the work; if you sat in the car while the other boys changed the tire; if you let some fool petty jealousy keep you out of the Chamber of Commerce; if you turned sour because everybody else couldn’t see things as you did; if you acted up like a school kid, and wouldn’t play at all, and tried to spoil the fun of others just because they wouldn’t play your way and let you be teacher; if you pooh poohed every attempt on the part of others to do something to build Syracuse; if you spent your time pussy-footing, scandal mongering and rabbit-punching; if you kept your hands in your pockets, leaning backward, while others W'ere putting their shoulder to the wheel pushing forward—if you did these things, and knew you were doing them, you were a civic moocher and deserve no consideration from neighbor or stranger. Maybe you didn’t know you were doing such things—that’s why we say think —it will do you good.

POWER S33—TAXES $4«» According to some of our leading political lights, the- cost of electricity is one of the most serious problems facing the American people. They seem to believe that the struggling worker is driven to want and privation by the demoniac power com- — panics. According to some of these same political lights, the cwt of government, though admittedly high and growing, isn’t much of a problem and will readily be solved on some future date. Nobody but a professional belly-acher, they reason, has much of a kick coming about the tax load or the public debt. Those twin attitudes of mind are rather hard to square with the statistics. For example, in 1934, the coat of government in this country amounted to over S4BO per family and it is much higher now. That figure niarked a 100 per cent jump since 1930, when the day of bigger and better budgets started in earnest. In 1934, the average annual cost of electricity per family was $33.82 — les than 8 per cent of the cost of government. And that electrical cost marked a decline of about 30 per cent i since 1930. A further decline has occurred since 1934. In other words, electricity costs the average family less than $3.00 a month, and is getting cheaper all the time. Gvoernment costa the av-• erajge family more than S4O a month and is getting more expensive all the time. And one reason that government b getting more expensive is that Federal agencies are building subsidised, tax-free electric plants . to “compete” with the private elec- ' trie companies. A ten per cent reduction in taxes would more than pay total domestic electric bilL ' '■ — FIRE PREVENTION WEEK Next month, from October 4th to 10th, Fire Prevention Week b to be observed again. The Week was first declared an official national event by President Wilson, and succeeding presidents have followed ’ suit each year. During the Week, as W. E. Mallalieu, Gen. Mgr. of the National Board of Fire Underwriters, recent- i ly pointed out, usinesses and individuals will have a splendid opportunity to really achieve something in the patter of fire prevention. Fire marshals and departments, insurance companies, and other public and private groups, will work to the utmost to make the Week a success. But it cannot be a success without public cooperation. Simpe programs have been outlined for observing the Week. For example, it b suggested that owners and executives make thorough-going inspections of their plants in order to find and eliminate fire hazards. The aid of workmen should be enlisted, and the necessity for fire prevention and the wisdom of practices as “No smoking” during factory hours, should be impressed on them. In the matter of home fire prevention, every person can easily do worthwhile work. Go over your house from cellar to roof. Has the heating plant, which will soon be called on to operate at high capac-I ity, been expertly inspected and, ts

necessary, repaired? Is electric wiring in A-l condition? Are inflammable liquids properly stored? Does household equipment using electricity, gas or gasoline bear the approval label of the Underwriters’ Laboratory? Have you permitted rubbish, old clothes, old magazines, etc., to accumulate in closets and out of the way corners? The National Board has prepared charts which are of great usefulness in inspecting either homes or businesses , distributed free on request. Your fire department will be glad to give you any advice you wish. Do your part during Fre Prevention Week. AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY It speaks volumes for the sincerity and integrity of the American press that, on the occasion of President Roosevelt’s recent statement on our foreign policy, littleor no partisanship marred editorial comment. The President said that the American government would contine to be that of the “good neighbor;" that we would maintain rigid neutrality toward any and all belligerent powers; that we would keep free of freign entanglements and that we would build up our national defense services sufficiently to make us a dangerous enemy for any country eyeing our possessions and territories with covetous eyes. That declaration of policy was applauded by Republican as well as Democratic newspapers and spokesmen, and it is apparent that it is supported by reasonable and foresighted men of all political parties. The President’s attitude in this vital matter is typically American. Fortunately, we are remote from Europe. Our people are anything but belligerent and envy no empire or nation. The American public wishes to maintain friendly relations with all powers and to carry on lawful world commerce without restraint. That is the way toward permanent peace. The Spanish revolution has again of war to the world. But, as'the President said, the American people will fight no other nation’s battles and will insist that its rights be respected, and that its government remain neutral in spirit and deed.

HURRY is the greatest driving hazard. Hurry brings on nervous tension, and high speed through congested areas brings on hazards that the average dirver cannot cope with. Speed does not always get you to your destination. Some people have never reached their destination after starting out on a fast drive.

Indiana University Football Team Has First Scrimmage

Bloomington, Sept. 24—Working gradually toward game conditions, the Indiana university football team got its first taste of heavy scrimmage this week. Coach Bo McMillin has paced the team along slowly since the opening practice two weeks ago, and most of the practice drills have been confined largely to conditioning work. To date, none of the minor injuries, including blisters and pulled muscles, which handicapped the Hoosiers last year at this time, have caused casualties. The first eleven which Coach McMillin has been using, largely to demonstrate his plays and formations, has included Nelson Beasley, Linton, and R. L. Kenderdine, Ft. Worth, Tex., ends. Capt. Christ Dal Sasso, Clinton, and Ted Livingston, Geneseo, Kans., tackles; James Sirtosky, Thompson, Pa., and Willie Dileo, Republic, Pa., guards; George Miller, Monongahela, Pa., center; Vernon Huffman, Newcastle, quarterback; Edwin Clasen, Kansas City, Kans., and Roy Eads, Kokomo, halfbacks and Cordy Davis, Lowell, fullback. McMillin has brought the team easily into shape, for the Hoosiers this year face one of their most difficult schedules in history. The first opponent is Centre college, Alma Mater of 80, where he won fame as an All-American quarterback. The Prayin’ Colonels will be met here Oct. 3. It will be Boy Scout and High School day on the I. U- campus. Following this home game, the Hoosiers will take to the road for three consecutive engagements, two of which will be with top-notch Big Tenfoes. Oct. 10, Indiana will meet Michigan at Ann Arbor. On Oct. 17 Nebraska, a newcomer to the schedule, will be played at Lincoln, and Oct. 24 Ohio State, ranked with Minnesota as one of the powerhouses of the Conference, will be met at Columbus. The Crimson then will return home for their remaining home games, meeting lowp here Oct. 31 in the annual Homecoming encounter, and Syracuse, one of the outstanding teams from the East, will add an intersectional flavor to the schedule when it comes here Nov. 7. The remaining two games on the schedule, Chicago and Purdue, will be played away from home. NEW SALEM Mr. and Mrs. Rolaind Fernerda and family returned to their home near Beaver Dame Sunday evening after spending the summer with relatives. Mrs. Amanda. Hoover is reported as improving slowly. Mr. and Mrs. Roland Ferverda, Mrs. Jesse Fernerda and Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Grove were Sunday guests of Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Fernerda. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Mathews and Mr. and Mrs. LaMar Leatherman, New Paris, visited relatives near here Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Roy Meek and family took dinner Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. John Stout.
