single denomination witt: more than
100000 members, were taken the
other day by the Presbyterian General
Assembly. Such union recently tcrok
place in Scotland, home of Presbytc-
rianism.
The next step, still soinc distance
ahead but being considered vita great
seriousness by church leaders, is the
reunion of the Methodist Episco?ai
church with the other ofshoot Of The
Church of England, the Protestant
Episcopal Church in America. .And
some religious leaders are cooking
farther than that, toward the ultimate
merger of those and the Presbytcr.ans
into one great Protestant body.
AIR
Air and water do not seem % moS
of US like raw materials of industry.
Yet one of the largest industries in
America uses uOtLliig else Dut lnc air
from above and around its factory
and the water from the river which
flows past it.
This is the plant of the Dupont in
terests in West Virginia which ex-
tracts nitrogen from the air by first
COMPRISING the air until it is IL
quid, then mixing with it hydrogen gas
obtained from the water by electroy-
tic decomposition. The result is am
monia, which is the handiest form of
fixed nitrogen, whether you are going
to use it for fertilizer or for the man
ufacture of explosives.
A similar process is to produce nj
trate fertilizer in huge quantities as
we'll as explosives for the Govern
ment at Muscle Shoals-maybe.

ZEPPELIN5

People of the eastern part of the
United States have just had another
glimpse Of that gigantic monster OF
the air, the Graf Zepplin In the teeth
of terrific storms the great German
airship crossed the South Atlantic
from Europe to Brazil, then flew
northward to New York and east
across the Atlantic TO its home port
on Lake Constance.
This trip, added to its flight around
the world last year, has removed the
last doubt as to the practicabillty OF
aerial navigation, and american capi'
tai is rushing in to invest n the man
ufacture of Zeppelins in this country,
and to establish regular passenger and
express routes between the great CEN
!! ters of population.
For high speed and comparatively
light loads the airplane will remain
unchallenged, in all probability. But
the dirigible balloon has definitely ar
rived as a means of everyday trans y
portatiorL
GAS
The one remaining domestic handi-
cap which makes women discontented
with life in the country towns IS the
necessity Of doing their cooking and
water heating with wood Or coal
which makes too hot hre in the
summer, or with electricity, which is
adecidedly expensive, or over oil
stoves, which are slow. For cooking
purposes the gas which city people
use is concededly the most satisfac-
tory fuel
A bank in Indiana, finding itself
with bankrupt gas company on its
hands, investigated the possibility of
bringing in compressed natural gas
from Oklahoma. The experiment
worked, and the people of Linton are
getting the new gas at the old price, in
the old way, while the expensive pro-
duction plant in the town has been
abandoned.
This seems to point way whereby
every community, however small, can
have its gas mains and use this handy
fuel as we'll as in the cities.
NEWSPAPERS
Il According to The American Press
there are 100 newspapers in the United
States which have been published con-
tinuously for 100 years or more. OF
these. IS are dailies. IS weeklies.
One of the weeklies, the Annapolis,
Maryland, Gazette, is more than 200
years old, having been established in
1727. Five papers still iE existence
were published before the Revolution.
The Oldest of ali dailies is the Hart
ford Connecticut, Courant. founded
] in 1764. h
We are accustomed to think Of 100
years as period of time before which
nothing of Importance existed in
America. The evidence of these old
newspapers helps us to realize that
100 years is not such very long time.
There were settlements West of the
Mississippi 100 years ago, on such
firm foundations that the communities
and the newspapers established then
have hourished ever since Two news
papers in Iowa, one in Arkansas, one
in Missouri, are in the list of these
centenarians of The American Press

Future With Officials

1.-THE future Of the Democratic
party rests on the manner in which
the civic affairs are conducted by
the new officials Peters said.
He pointed out that the COM
bined Democratic majority il city
elections was 100000, and that
Hoover carried this state by 100000
while Leslie was elected Governor
by about $4,000 votes.
The majority by which the Re
publicans win in Marion county is
the percentage Of the CT. O. P. vic
tory through the state, Peters de-
clared.
The fact that indianapolis was
carried by 10000 votes by the
Democrats should give a working
margin for our victory of by at
least 5000 Or 5000 votes in the fall
statewide election" he said.

CONSTRUCTION COSTS
SHOW DROP IN AUGUST
~ the Associated Prsas

BY the Associated Preas
Construction costs in the United
States were lower in August than at
any time in the last two years and give
indications that they have reached their
bottom level for the general readjust-
The average Of construction costs, as
calculated by the Associated General
Contractors of America, in the princi-
pal centers Of the country during the
month showed o decline for the fifth
consecutive period, dropping to index
1894, or three-flfths of point below
July and 4.6 points below that for the
corresponding period year ago. THESE
changes are based on 1913 averages
Is 100.
Considering cost trends following the
general business reeesSions OF l924 and
1927, when average construction costs
declined and 4 points, respectively,
and which are closely paralleled by the
present trend, the association said any
further downward movement lis hardly
to be expected"
It pointed out that following the gen.
eral recession In 1927 construction costs
gradually decreased ( points in five
months and following the depression in
1924 they declined B points in three
months to the low levels of those Pc
RODS. In both instances the index
reached its low figure within year
from the low point In general business,
which, in the present cycle Is believed
to have been in December of last year.
Construction costs have varied but
little in the last seven years, the assoc
citation said, IS the upward trend Of the
cost Of labor in general has been just
about offset by the downward trend of
the cost of material. During the cur
rent year the index number for labor
wages has remained stationary at 2S2,
while the index for basic material prices
has declined points In the last i've
months to lT6.
In both previous recessions wages
were o factor in reduced construction
costs, whereas In the present movement
they have played no part, having been
maintained at their highest levels. Ma
terial prices, however, are at lower
level than at any time in the last four
years.
