Why the Indiana court bill failed in Madison County
Addison County residents lament the Indiana General Assembly failure to reform the overcrowded court system. They note Vigo County's merger creating a single superior court with three divisions and wonder why Madison County, among the state's largest, received no relief. They accuse partisan politics and leadership in the legislature of inaction and blame ineptitude or political maneuvering for the stalemate.

Federal quota system blocks many Washington area jobs
Hundreds of residents from Washington and 12 other states are turned away from federal jobs each year due to a longstanding 1883 law that allocates executive branch positions by state population. The quota system favors certain states, discriminates against veterans, and leaves thousands of jobs unevenly distributed across agencies.

Return to a Volunteer Army Signals American Renewal
A 1975 Los Angeles Times column argues the United States has a regular volunteer army of about 786000 soldiers plus Navy 548000 Air Force 623000 and Marine Corps 134000, noting high reenlistment, diverse recruitment, and better training. It contrasts with conscription, credits volunteers with discipline and patriotism, and frames the shift as renewal rather than decadence. It reflects on recruitment motives and the educational role of the armed forces while praising bravery in Vietnam.
