SEES G. 0. p. LEADERS
AS HYPOCRITES
BY E. S. Brown

By E. S. Brown
Republican Party leaders seem be-
wildered by the question of what
catch phrases to wave over the
heads of American voters that they
may be placed under ever-subtle but
meaningless G. o. P. promises.
The Republican Party, from the
day of it's birth, has been paraded
before the American people as the
only party with any safeguards for
the people. Broadminded and I'M
selfish people can not be fooled by
such propaganda. 1t is fact that
big business supports the Repub-
lican Party in order to control those
elected. They serve big business at
the expense of the small business
man, the farmer and wage Garner.
Big business is bowling dictator
ship, constitutionalism and every
other ism. The leaders now are
planning how they may deceive the
public in 1896, to gain official recog-
milton and tear down all that has
been done by the greatest President
and humanitarian that this nation
ever has produced. They are mad
because President Roosevelt will
not accept their dictates. The money
chiselers claim that it is their sole
right to control the nations finances
Then and there they ignore the
Constitution; but what do they
care?
Produce and stock market dicta-

could get men to work for them for
next to nothing and cab rates were
cut until taXicabs had degenerated
into mere "jitneys," an ordinance
was adopted to regulate them. The
cruising of cabs, and solicitation of
business on established transporta-
ton lines was definitely prohibited.
Again, the city fathers were being
consistent in their attitude of pro-
tecting a legitimate business from
depression-bor cut-rate competi-
ton.
We street car men are paid fair
wages. Ask. any cab driver how
much he earns on the average per
week, and then ask him how many
hours he must work to get even that
small sum.
My point is this: The anti-cruis-
ing, anti-soliciting provision is moth
ing new. It's the same thing as
the 1920 "jitney" ordinance and the
1888 taxicab ordinance. Further
more, it is entirely fair and just.
If one of our large department
stores had a big sale, the city would
not permit peddlers to stand out
side and offer cheap sweat-shop
merchandise to customers who in
tended to enter the store In the
same way, it is not fair for low-Wage
cab companies to solicit patronage
from those people who came to a
car or bus line for the obvious pur-
pose of catching a street car or bus.
I drive trackless trolley regu-
larry on Pennsylvania-st, and can
testify that both the "jitney" ordi-
nance and the present taXicab ordi-
nance are being violated on that
street many times a day.

tors are others who tell the farmer
what he must accept for his farm
produce, and what the consumer
must pay for it. When any one
wishes to buy stocks or bonds in
dictionary values are placed on
them. At the opportune time the
prices are sent down until there is
no value left. Then comes the pre-
arranged market crash. Money, to
hear these leaders tell it, is worth
only a fraction of a dollar compared
to what they made it by fictitious
and inf1ationary values.
And Republican Party bosses de-
mand laws in their favor. When
others seek to learn how the laws
may be made applicable to all these,
money leaders want the laws set
aside as useless. Legislation that
will benefit the small business man
and farmer must be avoided at all
costs; and if it is enacted must be
declared unconstitutional. There is
no authority vested by the Consti-
tuition of the United States grant,
ing any court the right to throw out
a law. Let the law as it reads de-
eide the issue; then dictatorship will
cease to exist.
Big business and the Republican
Party bosses, along with gang of
useless and so-called Democrats, viz:
Alfred E. Smith, Jouett Shouse, John
Davis, James Reed, ex-senator; Gov.
Talmadge of Georgia, Carter Glass
of Virginia, and a host of others, do
not care a whit for the farmer or
wage Garner after they get political
support at the polls.

FEARS OF DICTATORSHIP
ARE CALLED ILLUSIONS
BY Reader, Frankfort

By Reader, Frankfort
To all that are distressed over the
belief that we are headed for a die
tatorship, hearken: 1t is purely an
illusion. Isn't that good news for
you? You know nothing about a
dictator. You merely imagine you
90.
It had been so long, prior to
Franklin D. RooSevelt's incumbency,
since we had President that really
functioned as such (they being mere
figure heads) that when we come
under one who functions as Presi-
dent according to intent we do not
recognize it as such, hence we
imagine it is all wrong. It's mat
ter of relatively.
After the slaves of the South were
freed, many preferred to remain in
their former state and continued
with their masters. Thus, today,
many, through long custom with the
old order, become frightened by
the new and seek to restore the old
figurehead President. Let them
calm themselves. Time will eradi-
cate that fear. Another four years
of Roosevelt will bring them to a
full realization of what it is all
about and by that time, I am sure.
nothing could persuade them to
turn back.

"JITNEY" ORDINANCE BROKEN
DAILY, CHARGES WRITER

BY Harry ellis
A recent letter in the Hoosier
Forum complained about proposed
taxicab ordinance to prohibit cruis-
ing taxicabs and the solicitation of
street car and bus passengers on es-
tablished car lines.
AS Al Smith would say, let's look
at the record. believe it was about
1920 when the city of indianapolis
first adopted an ordinance which
outlawed the "jitneys.' The city
fathers realized that if they wanted
an efficient, reliable transportation
system which would provide good
service at all times of the day and
night, in good weather and bad, they
would have to legislate against un-
fair competition.

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

CAN you emoer how desperately you wanted
~ to investigate the forbidden when you were
young? wonder the folks who want no discussion
of Communism in American classroonls think
of that They seem to believe the child mind does
not work as it used to. y
Sex was magnificent taboo in the eighties To-
day it's Communism Heaven grant we do not get
the same results from method of attacks
I daresay this foolish attitude is responsible for
much of the radicalism which now said to be
ming through our educational system
It's perfectly natural reaction, isn't it? Boys and
girls always have wanted to find out everything they
about the forbidden and the dangerous and they
always will.
The adoescent who once sneaked out behind the
barn to whisper with his companions about the nlys
teries of anatomy may conceivably hide behind
the garage to investigate that onlinous menace
named Communism. Pamphlets on the power of the
proletariat will perhaps replace Nick Carter under
his mattress. For the simplest way of making any
thing popular is to dress it up in bogeyan clothes
1t can hardly be denied that the very worst way
to teach children patriotism is to approach the
job Mr. Squeers of Doetheboys Hall did, and
smack it into them. One who has been forced to
threats is not likely to develop into an agreeable
democrat
All these defenses and counter -defenses for the
empty gestures of patriotism-oaths salutes and
genufections-have sinister meaning. They sug-
gsst love of persecution the part of the teachers
rather than love OF country.
Perhaps it is true that nations as well as men
suffer most from the attention of their friends.

OTHER OPINION
Business Finds Substance

lAnderSon BuIiet1nI
How was Indiana business in the
first nine months of 1885 compared
to the first nine months of 1894?
The magazine Business Week
gives this report: Passenger auto
sales, up p per cent; commercial
auto sales, up 83 per cent; house
hold refrigerator sales, up II per
cent; ordinary life insurance sales,
up per cent; value of checks
drawn, up 18 per cent; farm income,
up Al per cent; electric power out
put, up 6 per cent; heavy building
construction, down 8 per cent.
The Al per cent improvement in
farm income is the best for any
state in the nation. Wisconsin and
Kentucky alone APPROACH it with 80
per cent improvement for the nine
months.
The national average for farm in
come improvement in all states is s
per cent.
Very few states approached the
auto sales record of Indiana in the
nine months, and only Wisconsin,
Iowa, Minnesota and Montana
gained an edge in that field.
Clearly, the auto manufacturers
are profiting most in the states
where farmers have been most pros
porous.

FIGHT FOR LIFE
FAILS OSHAKE
HAUPTMANN

TRENTON, N. j., May 81
u.N.S0.-Nearing the day of his
last-ditch fight from conviction
for the murder Of the Lindbergh
baby, Bruno Richard Hauptmann
is "the calmest person in the
State prison." according to a
prison attache.
Hauptmann demonstrated his
remarkable composure earlier this
week when he was visited by Mrs.
Emma Gloeckner, of Los Angeles,
q sister whom he had not seen in
several years. Mrs. Gloeckner
wept Historically at the sight Of
her brother. Hauptmann, dry
eyed and unruffled, blandly con-
Soled her.
Hauptmann has proved a COM
plete puzzle to prison authorities.
Drawn more within himself than
ever, he seems serenely resigned
to whatever fate has in store for
him. The officials gave up hope
of getting a confession from him
long ago and are convinced that
If and when he goes to the chair
he will take with him the inside
story Of the crime of the century.
Deeply Religious
Strangely, Hauptmann, whose
philosophy previously had no
place for religion and recog-
nized only will power" and
strength" has become pro-
foundry religious since he entered
the death house last February.
He eagerly welcomes the weekly
visits of the Rev. D. G. Werner,
Bronx IN. " clergyman, and
reads all the religious works he
can obtain. He is particularly
anxious to get the book PRO
phecies Speak," according to the
minister.
While HauptmSnn'S every state
ment on his chances Of winning
his appeal June 20, is optimistic,
those in close touch with him be-
lieve that down deep in his heart
he is not fooling himself and in
reality is prepared to die.
Model Prisoner
Keeper Mark o. KimberIing
says he is a model prisoner, hav-
ing never made any complaints or
caused any trouble. He said
Hauptmann keeps himself in good
physical trim with elaborate cal
1sthenics in his cell. It has not
been necessary for a doctor to
see him since the day he went
into the death house.
His physical exercises and his
wide reading form his only activ-
tiles, varied only by weekly visits

minister and the calls twice a

the upbringing Of these tragedy
filled youngsters.
The first step was to provide
clothes for the lot. and in no time
at all the Riddles were all decked
out for their future.
In fact, 10-year-old Roger is So
sure that he's going to like his new
parents that he's already chosen
his career. He said:
I'm going to be . doctor, or
maybe an aviator"
