TREATMENT FOR
STREET BRAWLS

OLlCE were called Satur-
IL day night to quell a street
brawl that was bubbling
merrily in bellicose neighbor-
hood near Military Park. Five
Of the six participants were taken
to the city Jail and the sixth
suffering from a knife wound-to

In Jail the five survivors of the
Momeric combat were thrust into
the same cell. There the battle
quickly started again. Soon an
other OF the doughty six was sent
to city hospital with a fractured
shoulder and badly cut head
Locking all the participants in
the street brawl in one cell was al
most a stroke OF genius.

doctrine of survival of the fittest

they dangerous to life and limbs

a ShreWd President

TT1 THERE is shrewd President in the White
House.
To the business men Of the Nation he has
just suggested that they fix their minds on
business and forget Washington for awhile.
The shrewdness lies in the fact that he has
told the business men to do what, to an unusual
extent, they already are doing 1t is a Roose-
veltian gesture, in its way. Great leaders of
all times, in fact, have practiced it. First the
great leader determines whether the pople are
moving and then he puts himself at their head.

are great men.

its funny side as well as a
- serious one.
For All of Us" is about three
years old. When this play was only
a few weeks old, it visited the Murat
several seasons ago.
At that time / had the opinion that
this comedy by and with William
Hodge would not set the world on
fire.
AnRyet last night. again sat in
seat at the Murat with an audi
ence that nearly filled every seat in
the theater and witnessed the same
play.
Kindly pardon me a minute while

like you and thousands of others. I
make my living by telling you what

to the other fellow that same high
right.
From a cold critical standpoint.
when I first saw For All of Us"
was of the opinion that it was one
of those self made things for a star.
1t is not we'll written, it violates
certain accepted rules of playwriting.
its ending is always apparent-miss-
ing daughter. bad father. rich but
sick old man, the simple teaching
of great truth-right thought, all
this and much more is spread all
over this play.
But-and here is it's secret-the
American show-going public, and
this public does a whole lot of in
dependent thinking, recognized in
Hodge and his comedy a clean. beau
tiful program of life. To many
people, probably to thousands who
have seen it several times, this play
be ones a message of the heart.
And when a play does that. brings
people into the theater and sends
them away happier, and even more
thoughtful, l am ready to admit
that Hodge knew what he was doing
when he wrote this comedy for him.

Call it Science. right thinking, call
it the ABCs OF dramatic writing,
call it anything you like, but you
can not get around the fact that the
public has accepted this play, max
ing it highly successful for all con
cerned.

have kept this play alive two-thirds
as long as Hodge has. And, yet.

setting is on a South Sea isle. Gives
Lena Daley a chance to do a hula.
And it gives "Bozo" Mack a chance

But it is all right as he continues
to be funny.
The best thing in this weeks
show is the prison scene with Gray.

cheer him up by telling him about

REDUCTIONS IN
FEDERAL TAXES

INDIANA paid $5,39s,66
less in Federal taxes
during the first nine
months of the present fiscal year
than for the corresponding period
of the previous year.
Nevertheless Indiana con-
tributed quite a stately sum during
the nine months for the support
Of the National Government
-$2S,S56, $40. That's about So per
Hoosier.
And even IL Federal taxes
dwindled to extinction there would
be enough taxation in the State
to satisfy the tax-paying appetite
OF most citizens.
The demand of the National
Government amount hardly to a
fourth of the total taxes collected
in Indiana. State, county and
city each gouge larger chunks
from the quivering frames OF
Hoosier taxpayers.
A cent whitfield off the income
rate or other National levy makes
an impressive showing in the
aggregate, but its effect on the
average individual is slight. He
doesn't save enough thereby to
discard his pipe and indulge his
taste for nickel cigars or pas
sionate neckties.
Real tightening of the tax
burden will come only when all
levies, including State. county and
city, are whitfield to the bone. To
do that requires enthusiastic per-
spiration-not conversation-of all
public officials. AS far as the tax
payers purse is concerned the
township trustee is as important
a parsonage as the President Of
the United States.
