According to the recent annual report of the postmaster Just what they will do to an o·eneral 12,657,130 misdirected letters were turned over to unsuspecting stately and dignified dead letter offices during· the past year. A strange f~ct smoke stack found emitting coal about these letters is that one out of every three contains smoke from an honest to goodness money, checks, money orders or cash.

Another one of those stories common in American life is told of the late James Couzens, senator for Michigan. Co~ zens began as a poor boy and died at the age of 64 a multimillianaire and senator of 'h is state. Couzens was known for his persistent political independence. Parents can be quite often judged by the manners of their children. It is pointed out that one can secu!'e a divorce in Nevada by being a resident of the state for six weeks, but to get a fishing license one must live in the state six months. The ·~ ~ve1·yone most difficult way to be popular is to encourage to tell you their troubles. We note that an Englishman traveli!lg in this c:ountry :aid recently in reference to tl_le Wally. Simpson affatr that he king's private life is not discussed 1n England. As the ovs say: "That's what he thinks." Every nation has found it neces~ary to :rp.ake chang~s in its system of government from time to time. In this country the opportunity is given every four years thr~u~h our elections. In those countries where such opportumties are not given the desired changes are often effected through revolution. History shows that always when g~>Vernments refuse to institute changes that the people destre and demand eventually the people overthrow the governmnte and install the changes themselves. - - - - -- China is an easy victim of Japan for the reason that China has not kept pace with the times in th~ matter of good roads and other improvements that go with the mod~rn scheme of living. China has no way to transport her armtes or food to an army if she should have one. There is nothing quite so hopeless as prejudice-nothing kuite so dense. In Decatur, Alabama, the gasoline tax .is 11 eents a gallon. The tax consists of 1 cent federal tax, 6 cents state tax, 3 cents county tax, 1 cent city tax. 4, 1936 State Publicity Fund Is Asked By C. Of C. ..

Democratic national committeeman, A. S.
