Coughlin. The same thing was in- jected in the presidential cam paign in 1928 but 1t won't work this time.
 The members of the National Union for Social Justice are of every race, creed and color. They care not what church the other member attends but to stand fast on the principles of social justice. Some twelve million of them are in accord with the program laid down by the militant priest, not counting those who are too lazy to send in their names but still agree on what he says in his ad- dresses.
 Evidently, the learned senator sees the handwriting on the wall and what will eventually happen to those who are entrusted to legis- late for the people but fail to do so. He couldn't find anything to detract the attention of the senate when the Costigan- Wagner bill on anti-lynching came up before the body so he picked on Father Cough lin.
 It would be well for the senator to do something for the "share the crop farmers" in the south which is a blot on the name of these states where such arrangement is carried out. What this country needs ii more men who are of Father Cough. lin's caliber to fight for justice for the people at large. Some years ago, Father Coughlin went forth to other lands to make the world safe for democracy with 6 million or two fellow citizens (oi should I say safe for American bonds.) We think 1t is about time we did something to make our owr country safe for democracy. w have listened to the promises o
 both political parties to remedy conditions from time to timt which they failed to do. The timt has arrived to send all those whs fail to keep their prediction promises to political oblivion. ] AMERICANA.

ccipts? Evidently the officials think not, for they couple the registration reduction with one-cent increase in gasoline, which actually means that the average mOtorist is being hoodwinked into thinking he is getting something for nothing. Not in this day and age. Our solution to the present difficulty is less government at high rates. Simplification and economy are needed now. Elimination and combi- nation can cut costs of governing. The tax payer deserves break.

REV. CHARLES F. COUGHLIN IS THE GUIDING STAR
 OF AMERICA
April 27, 1895.

April 27, 1885.
 Editor of the Democrat:
 The big fellows want no one only themselves and that applies to Bernard M. Baruch, the House of Morgan or anyone in that outnt. They do not want Father Coughlin, they do not want our great Presi- dent Franklin Delano Roosevelt, they do not want the working man only as a slave-back to the gold standard, Herbert Hoover and slavery days.
 I have here in my possession several letters from the famous Radio Priest. He takes no gas from the Bridgeport Times-Star, Baruch or anyone else. He hits straight from the shoulder, the man who is fighting for a starving humanity, a man who is slowly driving the money changers from the temple. Let the Times-Star take the part of the old down trodden working man once in a while, not Baruch. Now a short time ago the Jeffer- sonian club gave big banquet at the Hotel Elton with after dinner speakers by the score chock full of Jeffersonian doctrines. By the way, one bird hoped on the air and said he did not believe in the doctrines of Father Coughlin. Well, whose doctrines Is he backing up? Morgan and Company, I presume. He can ring that Old Gang of Mine, Baruch and Company if he likes. Well for the benefit of some of those Jeffersonian men who were at the banquet here Is real old Jeffersonian stuff:
 A letter from Thomas Jeffer- son to President James Monroe in 1923 is as follows: our first and fundamental maxim should be new CT to entapgle ourselves in the broils of Europe. Our second nev- CT to suffer Europe to intermeddIe with transatlantic affairs. She

STORMS
RAVAGE WEST
Sun BIotted Out; Air, Auto
Traffic Halted; Wheat
Crop Threatened.
By United Press

By United Press
TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 22-The
state weather bureau today reported
little diminution of the dust storms
sweeping over western Kansas and
sections of Nebraska, Colorado and
Wyoming.
A 36-mile wind rolled thick clouds
of dust over Dodge City and strong
winds were picking up the desiccated
soil of west Texas and driving it
toward western Kansas.
The first wave of dust swept over
the countryside last night like a
driving dry mist. Streets we're vir-
tually deserted. Motorists we're
blinded and airplane travel halted.
Great damage was believed to
have been done to wheat in western
Kansas, where the storm reached
it's peak.
The dust and wind came up sud-
denly. At Dighton and Garden City,
Kas., the storm was reported the
worst in the history of a section
where dust obscured the sky for
days last spring and where f1imsy
tumble weeds, rolling endlessly
southwark before constant winds,
attain sufficient force and volume
to break down fences.
A dust storm Of such proportions
in Kansas and Nebraska means
hazardous travel and bodily dis
comfort. Fine as snow, the dust
sits into homes. 1t crunches under
foot and settles on furniture. There
is no escape from it. 1t adds an un-
pleasant taste at the dinner table
and follows one to bed, settling or
pillows and covers.

Mr.. Kreuger, prominent in the
Socialist party of America, arrived
here to organize a fight against the
sales tax proposed in the Indiana
General Assembly. He and William
Zumach, Milwaukee, tax expert and
the man credited with defeating the
sales tax in Wisconsin, will speak
at 8 tonight at meeting in Tom
linson Hall sponsored by the Social
list party.
The sales tax is an upside down
income tax designed to give relief
to big tax payers" Mr.. Kreuger
said.
Mr. Kreuger, also vice president
of the American Federation of
Teachers, an American Federation
of Labor affiliate, said that the
country is faced with a movement
backed by powerful interests to
throttle educational beedom.
In reference to President Roose-
velt's trend to the right, Mr.. Kreu-
ger said: The honeymoon of the
A. F. of L. is over. The union la
borer is coming more toward So
cialism"
Mr.. Kreuger attacked as ''politi-
cal patent medicines" such panaceas
as the Townsend old-age pension
plan. Huey Longs "share-the-
wealth" plan and various taxes pro-
posed by manufacturers groups.
Daniel w Hoan, Milwaukee So
cialist Mayor, will be unable to
speak here because of important
matters in his municipality. He
has agreed, however, to come to In
dianapolis at another time.

AS no emergency clause is con-

The Woodland bill provides that no
person under 81 years of age could
play more than one game in "a

physician, and under no circum-
stances could such a person play in
two games in "a hours.
