A NEWSPAPER m LOCAL AMD GENERAL NEW* AMD THE INTEREST# O f C3BDAS- VILL* AMD vicin ity . FORTY-SIXTH YEAR NO. 41 . CEDARVUXE , OH1 t o A Y , SEPTEMBER 28, 1923 Farmers Oppose PensionPlan C* A. Dyer, legislative agent for tljo Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, offers twelve arguments why the vo­ ters should not support the old-age pension law that will be on the ref­ erendum ballot this fall. It establishes new state and county officers, which, will be added to each year. It relieves children from contrib­ uting to the support of their aged parents and transfers this duty to the taxpayers of, the state. It will make .Ohio the Tefuge of the improvident and spendthrift of the other stales. It requires nothing of the pensioner except poverty. Pensions should be paid only to those- who have served their state or nation at a personal sacrifice. It does not do away with charitable institutions now supported by the tax payers, but continues these by barring inmates of these institutions from rc- recciving pensions. It establishes an entirely new’ set o f dependents upon state charity, many of whom will be entirely un­ deserving. -- It will increase taxes and increase rents and boost the high cost of liv­ ing. It places a premium on' shiftless­ ness and waste. * It strikes a deadly blow at thrift and economy. It is the opening wedge for the con­ fiscation. of private property. ■It is destructive o f the foundation principles undexiying American gov­ ernment. Farmers are to he organised to carry on an intensive canvass against the amendment, which is backed by the organized labor forces and the Fratrnal Order of Eagles. ' , ?
