Peoples Voice

Editor Times-What do you think
of our legislators now? What have
they done, in a good sound bust
ness sense, that was of any bene-
fit to the public which paid them
for their work?
Were they not like bunch of
kids, left to do a job of work, and
instead of working they played
game called politics until too late
to accomplish anything and then
quits? What right have our legis-
(ators to play the political game?
Were they not elected to their po-
sitions by the people of the state
to attend to their business for
them?
Politics is national and not a
state issue as was proved before
the Civil war, when the southern
states tried to secede. Therefore,
should we permit our legislators to
play game of politics in our state
legislative bodies that are intended
for business only? What do you
say?
There is an old saying that if
you want anything done right, do
it yourself. Is not the manner of
law enforcement, as it is being
carried out, a disgrace to the in
telligence Of a nation of educated
people? Shall we idly stand by
and endure the diSgraceful man
ner Of law enforcement that leads
to anarchy, robbery and revolution
and await the climax?
Or shall we get together and
make our own laws, better them if
they can be made better, instead of
attaching amendments to them, the
intent Of which always is not
clearly defined, thus permitting the
taking of any one of them separate
ly and so interpreting it that it be-
comes vicious and unjust? Us this
not the trouble with our delinquent
tax laws?)
When we have the laws perfected
so that they are as fair and just
as we can make them, can we not
then rest in peace and enjoy life,
knowing that the innocent are pro-
tected and the guilty punished to
such extent that there will be no
inducement for any one to do
wrong? H. D. ROBINSON.

Editor Times-Things are getting
to be a pretty mess when a corpora
ton the size Of Utilities Power and
Light" stoops to graft for the pur-
pose Of Initiating revenue.
To all indianapolis residents who
have complaints to make against
the creeping of light meters, I
would suggest that we get together
and instigate a drive, using for our
slogan, "Crinlp the power trusts by
eliminating our meter creeps."
Citizens Of Indianapolis, stand up
for your rights. We aren't COM
PEELED to accept this high-handed
dominance. Why not public own
ership Of gas and light facilities?
Everybody step down to the base
ment and be sure all the lights are
of and check your meter by leav-
ing one light on until the black spot
on the revolving copper disc moves
around TO center, then quickly turn
of the light.
Wait for about ten minutes, and if
| the disc continues to move you sure
have creeping meter. Some meters
will creep a half inch in ten min
utes. E. A.

For it must be gotten rid Of somehow.
But if this surplus is going to be great financial
loss in any eveneiher to the government or to the
competing farmer, to both-it might better be fec
to the starving than destroyed.
If the government and the farmers are unwilling
that it go for flour to feed the hungry unemployed ii
this country, is it not time to reconsider the old pro-
posal to send it to the Chinese famine victims? Or
to some Of our own hungry citizens?
OF course it is easy enough to point out objections
to this any other plan but that does not dispose of
the surplus

According to a report by w. A.

spring and autumn seasons, the
report stated.
