The criticism is pertinent and is worthy of the perusal of every automobile owner, "There is much justification for some criticism of the present state highway commission and its present director.
With about $23,000,000 spend in 1930 our present state highway commission went broke to the extent of about $1,000,000 and had to borrow money from the cities and towns gasoline fund, with which to carry on. is now about $3,500,000 of federal aid money which the state of Indiana has not used but which it could have used in the past two years if the proper types of roads had been built in locations approved by the federal government. "It will take two years of strict economy on the part of the state highway commission to use up the federal aid money in the next two years 'but if the license fee money is taken away from the state highway system this money will be lost to Indiana forever. legislators in the General Assembly feel that the present highway commission system is faulty or that the present commissioners and directors are incompetant and for this reason they are planning to reduce the funds available for the state highway system, returning it to the state for reduction of the state tax levy. "Another criticism of the present state highway commission is the fact that communities which pay the most money to the state in gasoline taxes and license fees have not received their proportionate share of the state highways.
"In view of the fact that our present state highway commission has proven unsatisfactory to the extent that its finances will be curtailed, it is felt by the directors of the Hoosier Motor Club that it would be better to try out some other plan of administering the highway funds rather than to lose them for the purpose of reducing the state tax levy. Money once lost for roads is seldom if ever returned. "The Hoosier Motor Club feels that the Increase of 4, license fees for automobiles for the purpose of taking it 4-, all away from the road building fund is little short of highway robbery and it is willing to try out any sensible method of administering the highway funds in order to save them for the Indiana State Highway System, "If automobile license fees are taken away from the state highway commission it will be a backward step in ing road states. building and Indiana will lag behind other board of directors of the Hoosier Motor Club, at special meeting today (February 24) went on record as favoring Senate bill 217 which provides for a new "way commission. This bill provides for a highway commission composed, of four members who shall work full time, with pay, on the problem of state highway construetion and maintenance.
It abolishes the office of state highway director now held by John Brown and instead allows the new highway commission to elect one of its members as chairman. "Under the proposed set up af the highway commission the Goyernor will nominate commissioners subject to the approval of the Senate. Two commissioners shall be democrats and two commissioners shall be republicans as provided in the present state highway commission law and the districts represented by the highway commissloners will remain unchanged. "The action of the board of directors 'of the Hoosier Motor Club was precipitated by the passage of Senate Bill 312 which was passed by the Senate and which increases the license fees on automobiles -about 50 per cent and takes all the license fee, amounting to about $10,000,000, away from the state highway commission for the purpose of decreasing the state tax levy, according to Todd Stoops, secretary-manager of the Hoosier Motor Club. criticism "For of the the past state several years there has been much highway commission, continued Mr.
Stoops, and it is felt by the directors of the Hoosier Motor Club that our state highway commission might function better if composed of men devoting their full time to its purpose. As a rule men who devote full time to 3 one job are more successful than men who scatter their efforts. "Under our present highway commision law we have four men who work for the state at $10 a day when and if convenient. The Hoosier Motor Club feels that it is an imposition to ask busy men to sacrifice their personal interests for the state at the rate of, $10.00 a day and for this reason it would be better to hire four men on a salary as commissioners who would have no other interests."

Perhaps you picked it May have it back Nothing about that to terrify the child, and the mother may then take the opportunity to say that we regard money differently from some other of the family possessions, and that if the child needs money, it is better to have it in the form of an allowance for he never takes what belongs to some other member of the family. This, of course, was mother's money.
When a mother says to me, "Tell me what should be done with three and five year old children who lie," one feels extremely sorry for her children. Of course children of this age will He because lying is deviation from the facts, and children do not know facts. They learn to know them by experience, but until they do we have no right to use $0 harsh a word for their inexperience. Children of this age make mistakes. When they err, we point out the mistakes but not in a manner that will drive them to lie to escape punishment.
We do not ask them direct questions which by their very nature exhibit the lifted hand behind them, ready to fall the moment the child admits his guilt. It is much easier to show the child that lying is a cowardly weapon, but we must recognize that childish 'mistakes will happen and that, if explained, they will not happen again. The adult must show the child our adult conception of lying. Truth telling is not a childish virtue; it has to be learned. Our leaflets, "Helping the Child to Tell the Truth," and "Lying and the Parents' Attitude Toward It," deal with both angles of this big subject.

Clergymen everywhere will be interested Prof. Einstein' recent disquisition of the gradual development of religion and the nature of God. His theory of the beginning of religion is that of Herbert Spencer and others.
Religion started in fear. Savage men imagined powerful vengeful, dangerous like themselves and they tried. to placate him with sacrifices, including human sacrifices. That was the "religion of fear." This fear, says Prof. Einstein, developed priesthood "claiming to mediate between the people and the being they feared, then attaining a position of power." Then "a leader, despot or a privileged class combined the functions of the priesthood with.
temporal role." Later God was looked upon as men look upon their parents, punishing evil, rewarding good deeds. Thus began a religion of "providence." It is very interesting to read Dr. Einstein's description of gradual changes in religion. Concerning his own religion, that of the Jews, he says: "It is easy to follow in the sacred writings of the Jewish people the development of religion of fear into religion, which is carried further in the New Testament." There's another religious emotion, according to Einstein, of which "only exceptionally gifted individuals or especially noble communities are This third level religious experience he calls "the cosmic religious sense." Like relativity, the cosmic religious sense is a little difficult for the average man because "it does not involve an anthropomorphic idea of God," namely the imagining of God as an individual with a beard and clothes like a man. Prof.
Einstein agrees with Schopenhauer that the Buddhists possess more of the genuine cosmic quality than the Christian or Jewish religion. And in that "cosmic religion" such personalities as Democritus, St. Francis of Assisi, and Spinoza, the Jewish philosopher, are" near to one another. It is a little "highbrow" for the average individual, who clings to his "anthropomorphic" idea and wants a God who can be called "Our not one in a fourth or fifth dimension.

When he finds himself sitting down he is startled, and then dead. Fortunately nothing in this country is dead, but some things were badly shot and wounded during 1930. As the news comes the fact that the worst is over, does not prevent exaggerated fear.
