The committee also approved the agreement on American reparations and the Polish reparatlpns agreement by a vote of 28 Uy 24. The Centrists abstained from voting today on the ground that the government's financial policy In connection with the Young plan bills is not sufficiently clear. But they took that position with the tolerable certainty that their abstention would not imperil the bills in committee. Furthermore, the Centrists showed their loyalty tc the coalition which passed the measures by proposing a vote of confidence for the chancellor.

Due to heat and the lack of equipment lor fighting the oil lire, fire fighters could not approach the burning box cars wherein the men were reported. Six carloads of. oil and three of gasoline were threatened toy the fire from gasoline from one of the tank cars, which was released by the wreck. Fifteen cars, made up mostly of merchandise and lumber shipments, went into the ditch. Telephone and telegraph lines were burned and only meagre details were available.

Mr.

Hoover wai represented to be for general improvement as a result of the upturn in the market. While he did not confirm a report that he would carry a personal message from the President to the wheat advisory committee, the secretary said that Mr. Hoover wa "keenly interested" in its deliberations. It was on recommendation of the Committee that' the farm board authorized the stabilization opera-tioos which, financed by federal funds, were generally credited here with halting the rapid market deflections that had made "dollar wheat" a reality in Chicago.

Wrlrht Hoosier Tom Jarrard has written a rhapsody -on the New Indiana which breathes the spirit optimism and good times. We received a copy, the other day and it radiates so much sunshine and happiness that we are going to pass some of. It on ommltUng the advertising part of it.

Things, save Tom, are okay down in Indiana. Our coal mines are heaping with baca gold. Tne corn, fields have done their part the cribs are full to overflowing; the cattle-are sleek as they stand in the fields, and the hogs are sleeping peacefully as they fatten in the sties. Over all spreads the happiness of a great people at work, taking their labor as play. Sure most of them wre in the recent stock market decline.

Many of them bought stock at 74 whkh is now setling at 23. But they are not down-hearted because Hoo-siers have the ability to work. In addition they have tor their won the- finer things of life Books schools bridge whist Down In Indiana, says Tom. we live form day to day and enjoy life as we go. The world used to think of a Hoosier as a farmer.

Not today because the automobile has eliminated farms all, now, is one big So at the beginning of 1930 we find the Hoosier has become the modern Industrialist. H-O-O-S-I-E-R Taking the letters separately means "HIGH OVER OUR SYCAMORES INDUSTRY EVER RULES." Last year down in Indiana they produced more national champions than any other single state In the Union. In fact, Indiana is now considered the new state home of champions that Is, people who do things better. And just what is a champion? Not anyone doing something unusual but someone who does what many are trying to do but does it better. We have the champion sow, and the champion board.

We have the healthiest child in the United States. We have the North American champion corn-grower. We have, says Tom, Purdue and Notre Dame on the gridiron both champions. Big Ten and National. Thty are on top of the heap the greatest ever, bar none.

Aa George Ade wrote after the Purdue-Iowa game, "All these things are making the moonlight brighter along, the Wabash." Then we have our champion orators, cartoonists, authors, poets. Presidents, too, have come from Hoosierland to guide the destinies of the nation. Indiana is at the center of population the state Is crossed by-more railroads and more air routes than any other one state in the United States. In Indiana, Tom raves on, we are giving the "extra ounce of erfort to our tasks." This makes the individual excel and it is all done happily, easily, so that the best of results follow. Wherever you go they (the Hoosiers) are on- the up-and-up, and Indiana, its championship calibreis stepping out ahead of the pack, not only in football, corn-growing, and cattle-raising, but aiso in automobile building.

The fields still give the breath of new mown hay and candle light still gleams through the sycamores along-the Wabash and the Tippecanoe. There may be a lot of bunk' and ballyhoo about what Tom Jarrard has written doubtless Is but it is better for the spirit of optimism to be rampant in a state than for the pessimists to be parading up and down Main street with a black flag and a hearse In the vanguard and wailing hired mourners following behind a brass band playing Chopin's Funeral march. You can talk a well man into believing he is sick, just as you can improve at least the mental attitude if not the physical condition of a man who believes he is very sick by having friends remara upon how well he is looking. You cad talk hard times up and down a business street until you spread the Infection among nearly all your friends. On the -other hand, a man-of any influence at all can cover like territory and pep up the whole bunch ot business men he talks with.

One doubting Thomas can depres most any ordinary crowd Mot people, while another speaker, seeing only the brightness ot today and the future can dispel the gloom and foreboding as to today and the future. Of course it may be wrong to veneer and cover up a serious situation, but there's no good to come from shouting the bad news from the house tops. Take proper steps to remedy a bad situation, hope and work and pray for the best results and await with a confident smile. Don't go around with crepe on your sleeve and tears in your voice as well as in your eyes as though your last friend was gone and all hope had departed. If you do, your room soon will be more desirable than your presence.

Don't be a purveyor of bad news. At any rate don't make it any worse than It really is. If it has to be conveyed, deliver the message something like the Irishman did upon whom had devolved the sad duty of telling Bridget that her husband had been killed in the quarry. An' sbure Bridget," said Mike, after he had summoned the lady to the door of her home, "you're yez be the folneat lookin' widdy in the town." When we hear a fellow going around complaining that business is on the bum and fearing that it will become worse instead of better we feel like giving him the appellation that the newsroom boys have handed to the undertaker's man when he comes in with a death notice. The minute his presence is noted he Is hailed: "Hello.
