Let's Give The Farm Folks
A Break On Saturday Parking
Parking in town on Saturday
night is a problem in every town
to judge from the editorials and
notices in our exchanges.
At Belie Plaine the Commerce
Clu,b inserted a display advertise-
meat in the newspaper asking mer-
chants, clerks and other Belle
Plaine residents to please refrain
from parking their automobiles in
the down town area on Saturday
nights, as a courtesy to the many
farming fanlilies who have only
Saturday nights on which to shop
and sell their farm products.
The same condition exists here.
l;armers and their fanlilies who
want to trade at local stores would
very greatly appreciate it if local
people would not occupy the par'k-
ing space for any length of time,
so they would not have to carry
egg cases and groceries a distance.
It would be a real expression of
courtesy towards our neigb,bors
from the country to give them all
possible parking space on Saturday
evenings.
CACvlPUS JACK'S HAT
IS IN THE RING
With the campaign for John
Nance Garner as Democratic presi-
dential nominee out in the open,
one still does not know whether
to take it seriously.
Garner was a candidate eight
years ago and used his position to
obtain the vice president nomina-
tion. Whether he intends to use
it for trading stock again of course
cannot be told.
There is this fact a~bout it, he
has the strong support of many
Texans who are not only enthus-
iastic .boosters but many of them
are men of wealth who will contri-
bute generously to Garner's cam-
paign.
Cactus Jack is a real political
character. He has played very
shrewd politics rather than gone
deep into national problems. He
seems to make up for lack of
theory in social prc~blems by an un-
common comlnon sense. His homey
ways strike a responsive chord in
many Americans.
Garner, if he is not serious may
~be doing the president a good turn
by cutting out a candidate who
might be serious.
In the mean tinle Garner goes
on his way not committing him-
self to a thing.
Congratulations to the Tipton
Conservative and Editor Roy Fors-
man on moving into a new build-
ing. While moving a printing of-
rice is one heck of a jo'b, the ad-
vantages to ,})e gained usually
make it worthwhile, especially
when the office has been on two
floor levels as has been the case
in the Conservative office.
The Clarence ,Sun cannot under-
stand why a state man has check-
ed the Clarence School District for
purchases outside the state and
collected the "use" tax. The Sun
asks: "Why should any school
district, town or county, all sup-
ported by tax money, he made to
pay either a sales or use tax. It
amounts to the state collecting tax-
es from itself.
