JUSTLY PROUD OF
COMMUNITY HOME
New S65,OOO Structure Com
pIeted and Dedicated
Free of Debt,
Rn Times SnecinI

By Times Special
FLORA, Ind, Jan. s.-There are
1,441 persons living in the little town
of Flora, Ind, Carroll County.
If, by chance, you happened to visit
that town today, the first question any
one citizen of that number would ask
YOU would be: Have you seen our
new community building?"
Such community spirit has made
possible the erection Of a $4,000 com
munity building, recently completed
and dedicated free of debt. The money
for the structure was raised by popu-
lar subscription, each citizen con-
tributing an average amount Of about
$50, an accomplishment few towns OF
a similar size in Indiana can boast.
Right to Be Proud
People of the community have a
right to be proud. The building Is a
beautiful structure with simple i'm
pressive lines, designed and erected
to supply an actual need, the need of
an active, progressive community for
an open forum, a place TO house all
forms of community meetings.
It is of ireproof construction OF hol-
low tic and brick supplied at cost by
the Hoosier Tile and Silo Company.
Albany. Ind. This company also sup
piled tile masons to lay the brick. All
other material was supplied at cost
and 1t is estimated the building under
contract would have cost sS5,000.
Cold Storage Plant
The building is S0x140 feet in size.
with basement, banquet room with
seating capacity Of 4S0, kitchen, shower
rooms. heating plant and cold storage.
The auditorium may be used for a
basketball floor and is equipped with
a stage. The ladies' rest room is fur
1ished with brown wicker furniture
and the mems lobby with leather up
holstered furniture. all arranged for
beauty and comfort.
The idea Of a community building
was fostered by the Flora Community
Club, Inc, with a membership OF 100
in three and one-hah years.

which, 1t must be remembered. is that
of life and death, in the hands of the
Congress. That would give to that
body power to violate all the rights
which / have just mentioned, the
power to destroy the States, abolish
the presidential office, close the courts
and make the will of the Congress
absolute. Is it supposed that in the
exercise of this power they would be
more impartial. more Independent
than the judges of the Supreme
Court? 1t seems to me that this would
be device more nearly calculated to
take away the rights of the people
and leave them subject to all the in
fueEces which might be exerted on
the Congress by the power and wealth
of vested interests on one day, and
the passing whim of popular passion
on another day. The poor and the
weak would be trampled under foot.
Under such a condition life, liberty
and property, and the freedom of re-
ligion, speech and the press would
have very little security.

promoted by the activities of the De-
partment of Commerce in finding mar

concerns. Inquiries in this field have
risen from 700 per day to nearly 1000
per day. This is a natural, sound,
common sense way of dealing with
industry. which may profitably be en-
ployed in further dealing with agri-
culture in the matter of finding mar

Sees Further Reduction.
"A policy of economy has as it's
sole object the benefit of all the
people. Just prior to elections a
great deal of talk is made about the
taxes of the poor and the rich. Ii
can fairly be said that the National
Government does not tax the earn
ings of the poor family. Earnings of
$4,000 are entirely exempt, and on
$1,000 they would pay but $3.50.
| The claim can scarcely be made that
the poor are obliged to pay direct
| taxes to the National Government.
| taxes off the rich and leaving them
on the poor is simply misleading.
But every student is well aware that
the public in general, which is mostly
made up of people of moderate
means do and must indirectly pay
the expenses of the Government.
The great corporations, the banks,
the railroads.&c. the great incomes
do and must collect their money from
r1nf in
shelter and fuel pays a tax to the
! Government, and the people who earn
the wages of the Nation do and mus t
pay these taxes when they buy these
necessaries. This simple fact deter
| mines what must be sound policy
| of taxation. 1t should be at a rate
which will produce the largest
amount of taxation, from large in
comes, and by doing the utmost to
stimulate enterprise and business af-
| ford the wage earners ample employ
ment with good pay, in order that
they may the better bear the burden
| of indirect taxation. All experience
shows that larger amount of money
| can be collected from large incomes
at moderate rate than at a high
| rate. When the rate is too high,
large incomes disappear, leaving all
the burden of taxes on the wage
| earners and people of small means.
Getting all we can out of the rich
! by making the rates moderate and
stimulating business to provide work
and increase. the earnings of the
| poor seems to me to be the common
sense method of taxation. The esti-
mated income and expenses of the
Government for the coming fiscal
year indicate that we can have a
further reduction in taxes But we

the right of trial by jury. with many
other provisions for the protection of
the individual from impositions which
other governments had constantly in
dicted upon them. This is in accord
ance with our theory that the people
are born with certain inalienable
rights which no government should
have any power to take from them.
'"The same privileges that belong to
the individual are likewise guaran-
teed to the minority and to the sew
eral States. We have made our Con-
stitution the supreme law of the
land, and whenever the Congress, the
President or a State Legislature or
governor violates it, anysone who is
injured has the right to appeal to the
Supreme Court and have such VIOLA
tion prevented. What better method
could there be for preserving the
rights Of the people and of the States?
1t is not necessary to prove that the
Supreme Court never made a mistake.
But If this power is taken away from
them, it is necessary to prove that
those who are to exercise 1t would
be likely to make fewer mistakes.
1T is proposed to place this power,
