ties of the sheriff's office through out the county.
 The voters of Litchfield county should not make this decision lightly. It is a practical matter to be decided on practical basis. There should be only one answer.
 Elect Sutherland Beckwith.
 The present sheriff has served
 the county for many years. For more than a generation he has been a respected county official. At the insistence of his friends he has declared himself willing to take the office of sheriff again. Many voters in Litchfield county will feel a natural regret when he re- tires from public life, but simi- lar regret is always involved when familiar institutions give way to new things which supplant the old in the march of progress.
 From the standpoint of good sense and civic propriety, Suther-
 land Beckwith is the only possible choice for high sheriff. A frienl- ly, neighborly man of character and ability, Mir Beckwith has all the qualifications typical of the good public servant. He knows Litchfield county's problems, being a native of Litchfield and descend ed from early setleds of Litchfield. He has the training, having gradu- lated from Yale in the Class of 1916 and having served in the World war as lieutenant of artillery. He
 has had a broad experience as an engineer in a large industrial plant of Litchfield county as we'll as in the traffic division of the state de- pertinent of motor vehicles. Every
 community in Litchfield county know him. An influential Litch- field county newspaper wrote of him not long ago that The is primarily of and for Litchfield county" We of his campaign com
 mittee urge the voters of Litchfield Icounty to cast their ballots for Capt Sutherland Beckwith of Litchfield and the entire democratic ticket on next Tuesday.

WALSMAN GETS S329
IN STATE JOB FIGHT
Lutz Rules Board Member Is
Entitled to PAY.

June salary of s329.O6 will be paid
to Albert Walsman, Indianapolis,
member of the state tax board,
whose right to hold his post has been
challenged in the courts.
Suit recently was filed in Marion
circuit court against Mr.. Walsman
by Herman L. Seeger, Indianapolis,
who charged Mr.. Walsman could not
hold the tax board post because he
is state representative
Judge Earl R. Cox held that Mr..
Walsman can not accept money
legally from the state unless he sub
mits written resignation from the
legislature.
Philip Lutz, attorney general,
holds, however, that a legislator
automatically vacates that office
when he accepts another state office.
He has ordered State Auditor Floyd
Williamson to pay the Walsman
salary, ruling that a disburSing
officer is not expected to question
validity of a mans right to office.

Final Renort Differs Only

The boards final report was made
public today 1t differed from the
earlier findings only in the specific
injustices cited. The conclusions
were the same as those of its first

The report completes the public

already has left Washington

Charge Monopolies Fostered
The board took cognizance Of
some code revisions inaugurated by
the NRA, but maintained that the
situation was substantially I'M
changed.
Basic charges made by the board
were
Codes have enabled powerful in
terests to seize control of indus
tries and to extend a control already
established.
Codes not only permit but fos-
ter monopolieS. Small enterprises
are oppressed and often accelerated

Coercion Is Charged

hampered by resentment aroused by
coercion.

obtained instantly to prevent fur

That problem is now uppermost in
NRA affairs what with the Presi-

price cuts on government bids and
question of Henry Ford's approval
of the Blue Eagle.
Mr.. Ford's approval of the NRA
was announced by General Johnson
