This time pur Senator, Frank B . Willis, in a speech a t Louisville opposed the lifting of the restrictions that man­ ufacturers and most farmers are now demanding to ease the labor situation in this country. The Senator would have you believe that some are plac­ ing the dollar mark over citizenship. Well, we take the view that Senator Willis is placing the labor union vote over either the dollar mark or citizen- •ship. The labor unions want a scarcity o f labor, that means higher wages, much higher* than a t present and in the; large industrial centers manufac­ turers are paying the war-time scale. Mr. Farmer with prices of his- crops at the bottom cannot' met the situa­ tion, The only solution to the situa- ' tirin is to lift the bars for a time and let foreign labor come to our shores. * • * * The press this week gives an ac- count of the labor situation in the south. Government statistics show tha t 32,000 colored laborers: left the . state of Georgia in 1922 to locate in the Northern industrial centers where wages are more than double what 'they are In the South. The Southern farmer, and particularly the cotton . grower looks on this condition with some alarm. It is predicted that with the cotton wevil and labor shortage in the South,, the cotton crop for this year will be greatly reduced.^,We had first hand information on this point Monday while in Cincinnati, A t the Grand Central station were two cars of Southern colored labors that were hound for a northern industrial city in this state. We were told that prob­ ably a- dozen cars of colored citizens pass through Cincinnati a week for northern cities, While the Ohio far­ mer is having his trouble with labor the Southern farmer must face the future with some concern. Sees Rural America a Great Community Lr. c . v %- e n V* *. '-Six -•<fes*SWt, *1: Gov, ,Donahey is the ^champion weilder of the-veto axe n r Ohio. At . this time he has killed by his veto - around 70 bills passed by the legis­ lature, While some of the laws he vetoed may have some value yet it must be admitted that most of them Vteve useless. From a political stand­ point we believe that it will be fool­ hardy for the Republican legislature in session to attempt to pass many of thorn over the Governor's veto. To do so would only be placing, ammu­ nition in the bands of the governor. Ninety pCr cent of the members.of the legislators n 6 t only in this state but in others are out of place in such a body. They have been elected for some one particular thing. That’s the reason we. have the kind of legis- ' lation that is. forced on e i. And then We all emit complaint and growl over the cost of our government. * » * ' \ . * In scanning the state papers as well as exchanges of this section we fmd the school boards o f the state between two fires ju s t at present. On the one band the legislature has seen lit at a session‘ some two years ago to set salaries of teachers. This was then compulsory on the part o f tin boards. Some of the school districts had a tax duplicate that would stand such a drain others had riot. Then comes the - transportation of pupils. This was mandatory. Where the money was to come £*om evidently did not concern ‘ the wise men in the legislature. The state department c f education wan given certain powers and he proceeds to order a teacher here and there, A new* building could not be erected without meeting state requirements. Along comes a bill that changed the school age of children which forced thousands o f children in employment back to school.

Now the boards are deeply in debt. Tax limitations nave tied their bands. One authority forces the expenditure of money and mother checks i t . . On some of the requirements boards are subject to a fine for failure to recognize the law. * »• ; * With all these demands for all the now things and no money the boards could only borrow money, to keep out of jail. I f tho coal miners and the operators juggled the coal situation and the price of coal went soaring, all the boards could do was to borrow money and pile Up the debt to p Only ten years ! .ago 000. Today it is placed at $880,000,000 Bub the boards now face a new order on borrowing,-The state banking de­ partment lias ordered banks to refuse further loans 'to school boards. To meet this order a number of schools have been forced to close much earlier uhari usual, notably the Boworsville centralized school where the board was swamped with debt and could not sorrow longer. The public has always been liberal toward requests for school funds feel­ ing that even though much, of the money was “wasted", yet it was for ;he advancement of education. But there is now to be a turning point and where the read Is to, end no one really knows..With all the money that is spent on education little goes to vocational training—where boys and girls could be taught a trade if there was little chance of taking up a pro­ fession. That’s the reason we have a Scarcity of, carpenters, mechanics, printers and apprentices for the other trades. An effort has been made to teach agriculture in the public schools All this is a mere joke particularly in the city schools where the average teacher, would not know the difference between a water melon and a green pumpkin fpom, outside appearance.

Donahcy has vetoed the Me Donald bill that if it became a law would compel a reappraisement of all real estate in Ohio in 1024 and every eight years thereafter. For the past few years the State Tax Commission has endeavored to compel a revalu­ ation in this county but Auditor Wead has recommended to the com­ missioners that such was not nce- es'-ary under present conditions and the commissioners have never pro- idod funds to carry on tho work. It would cost the county many thous­ and of dollars to make another ap­ praisement, Landowners and property owners have also opposed a change in valuations now.
