REGIMENT IN REVIEW

A MOTHER annual encampment of the
n G. A. R. has been concluded. Again the
veterans of the Civil war have elected officers
for the state in their determination to carry
on for another year.
Many of us will see the end of the G. A. R.
the grand old organization that has carried
with it brotherhood grown out of pain and
misery Of long ago.

FAVORS TAX EXEMPTION
OF REAL ESTATE

By T. C.
The only salvation for the home
owners and farmers is to exempt
them from all taxes on real estate,
because there isn't enough made
from real estate to pay taxes.

are too expensive and they only dill

DECLARES ROBINSON
BREEDS PREJUDICE


1t seems to me that a liberal
newspaper such as The Indianapolis
Times should be able to arouse pub
lie opinion against that bigoted
demagog, Arthur R. Robinson. The
regretted senator from Indiana has
done, is doing. and, 1 fear, will
continue to do more harm to Ameri-
can life by creating strong group
prejudice than any other man in
public life today. More than even
the believing Louisiana Kingfish,
Robinson spreads the venom Of
class and racial hatreds, glorifies
war as long as he can derive politi-
cal profit therefrom, nourishes his
and makes his home state the
political ego at the public's breast
laughing stock of the nation.

FRIEND OF NUDISIM

Among the rabid bevy of political,
and other noise-making fanatics
contributing to The Times Message
Center, I was pleased to find the
missive of an enlightened reader,

good thing. 1t will serve to dispel
morbid sex curiosities-curiosities
against which none of us is i'm

of clean thinking upon which man

in true equality, secure from sex
taboo, and free to work out their
destinies together.

WEATHER CYCLES

The American Meteorological Society
has been holding its annual spring-so-
collaborating and discussing many
things. such as Harvesting the power of the
lightning. OF more interest to the ordinary
citizen was the discussion of the weather
and the sad conclusion that nothing could
be done about it. 1t can't even be fore
east accurately, particularly over any ex-
tended period. Even daily forecasts,
though good on the whole, have never
achieved 100 per cent accuracy.
AS for weather cycles, of the sort UNI
scientific citizens like to believe in, there
aren't any that meteorologists have yet
been able to discover even after extensive
and intensive research. The layrnan might
have guessed as much for himself from the
fact that advocates of this theory claim so
many different cycles, ranging from very
short periods up to cycle of 60 years
They are associated with all sorts of
phenomena supposed to prove their exist
ence, such as sun spots, tree rings, earth
quakes, wheat prices, Nile floods, lake
levels, planetary positions, solar prom
inences, crop yields and what have you
AS matter of fact, weather is so old,
and scientific study. of it is so young, that
human beings do not yet have enough data
for final study and comparison. There
probably are cycles, and cycles within
cycles. But we can't takesa long-range
forward view successfully until we have
much greater long-range backward view

RAPID HOME.SAvING

Some government recovery efforts
have Jagged lamentably, especially the big
PWA undertaking of which so much. was
expected. It is pleasant to see con-
spicuous exception. The HOLC-Home
Owners Loan Corporation-though it also
was rather slow in getting. under way, is
now making up for the lost time with a re-
markable burst of speed
Communities throughout the country
feel this effectiveness lately, as thousands
of homes are saved from foreclosure by
transferring the mortgages to the govern
inent on easier terms and giving the mort.
gage-holder his equity in federal bonds.
Few of the beneficiaries have known,
though, of the pressure that has. produced
this speed.
It develops that in the HOLC head
quarters at Washington the officials,
clerks and stenographers are not only
working in two shifts of eight hours each,
but the two groups are engaged in contests
to see which can turn out the most work
There are pep" talks and everything that
usually gues with such contest in private
enterprise. Recently the night shift short
ened its lunch period Is minutes in order
to boost its output
Really, this sort Of thing will never
do. 1t is not only contrary to all govern
ment tradition, but against the spirit, if not
the letter, of MIRA.
