Tenth. district.1He won the nom-ination by a size- able majorlity, and nomination is practically tanta- meunt to election. In a.radio address.over KYW on Friday eve- ning, April 13, Mr. Church made public a declara- tion of i ntentions wlîich will have the earnest ap- pr-oval of bis censtituents. Embodied were certain definite pledges w.hich those constituents will con- fidently expect himto fulill. Among other fhings hc, said. "When elected, I wiI go to Washington witli the following main objectives: "I. To do everything witbin nîy power to serve the best interests of, the goverrimént of the Uni- ted States; "2. To represent, ably and impartially, ever.y citizen of the Tenth district. "I will go to congress to fight for the main- tenance of the sound fundamentals of Amierican life and goverument and for the préservation of the American constitution. "I will work at ail times for dlean, economical and efficient government, for I ower taxes, a balanced budget, a Sound currency, the elitnina- tion of al unnecessary governrnental expense and the aboiishment cf all unnecessary govern- mental functions. "I pledge Constan,'t 'attendance and serious at- tention at aIl sessions cof:congress. ',' will support every sane and sound mneasure> tebring normal .ecoornic 'conditionis to relieve, unempîcyment. I will oppose the domination of .special interests in gevernuient. "I will use my sixteen, years cf 1legislative ex- perience. for the good of the Tenth district. "I will stand ini congress, as I have always stood throughout my public life, as a loyal and stead- fast RenuhIic-" 9m ruption as great as existec ini the prohibition era, w.ben few officiaIs could resist the temptations offered for illegal personal profit, for the simple reason thatt the profit was very. large'. But aside from the profit angle, there is serious danger that the' power -of officiaIs would be used to discrimi- nate a.gainst business cencernls thoughit tiot to be as enthusiastic ini support ofNRA as desired. There is little te recommend the bill and rhuch tcondemn it. It should be.killed pronto. A $5OOOO FOLLY Wilmette has acquired a monument.. If we desired a monument weý were net conscieus cf i t. This one: was thrust, upon us. While *,net fash- ionied eut c f.,glistening marblel or everlasting granite; while ne spire penetrates the sky te ferm a guidepestand landmark for the ceuntry- side, it is nevertbeless seme monument and likely to endure for a long time. Net pretty, this moni nient. On the contrary it is repellent in its 'cold, gray drabness, an un- sightly, unîevely tbing, an offense te the eye and an irritation te the spirit. It 'is formed cf a group of eutworn heuses, some new reduced by wear anid tear te little more than tumbledown shacks, Iecated on the plot of ground cornering on Central and Park avenues, purchased by the. federal gevernm ent for a post office site when the fever to spend vast sums ef money on public werks was running high. Our rich uncle has now decided to abandon the projçct and we are net te Lave a 'pretty new post office structure. TI- stead, the doors are te be locked, the windows boarded, signs taclced ail over the place to' warn off trespassers, weeds left te gr9w in ýwild luxuriance, and a sÔrry picture of de selation pre- sented te passersby. The buildings for the most part, are unfit for tenancy, and if they were ne.' provision bas been made for renting them. There is danger that netbing wilI be done with thern for. at least ten years, the period for whicb the pres- ent post office quarters have been leased. We are net muncbing sour grapes, under- stand. Most citizens were epposed te building a new post office-at tbis time, and we were in ac-. cord. But what are we te think of federal offi- ciaIs whe pay $40000 fer round, employ archi- The TVA, if you know what that is, certaiiy has courage if nothing else. It is to undertake teaching newlyweds the things they sliould knoôw. Tirst time we eveèr heard that, there is anything riewlyweds do net know. The elusive Mr. Dillinger* is becoming quite a danger to the Central West. If one feels coin- fortably safe, from his artillery lie. is. likely to Ixe bumped off by' some inex- l)..erienced sleuth Who, is on the desperados, trail. One man is dead and two w ouid- ed because of such.a mistae. An Indiana man 'hàd. to leave the state because he resem- bled. Dillinger and wasý in constant fear of being shot. M e an ,wh i1e Mr. Dillinger roams about ait will, occasion-, alrobbing a bank to keep. the exchequer filled and visit-: ing the home folks' for a chicken dinner. One. of thn'se days, though, John Law will meet .up with the versatile bandit and it will be curtaîns for him and bis band, Funny that he hasn't made an effort to cross into Canada. Is it possible that the reputation of the,"tn.ounties" deters the bold, bad man from Indiana? France'has rejected a request of Mussolini to reduce arins, What ? Refuse a request by Mus- solini? The idea! "Two-gun", Voliva is shouting defiance at all who question his authority and proclaiming to the world that he is a 'tough guy" Mr. Voliva should remnerber that dictatQrs, like the.aneasies, run their course and are soon forgotten. Wisconsin has corne forward with the latest business recovery plan, in which old fashioned indiNviduialism and private enterpr ise,%will be given opportunity to. show their stuif. Its. purpose is, as stated, "to develop neW 'products, new de- maànds, new nmarkets :and te. restore pay relis." It is financed by private capital, has nocoen commissar, no governing bureau, no dictator. Tories! Traitors ! Chiseler!Taswate are!es!Taswht.he NRA.
