A GIFT TO A PRIVATE COLLEGE u The Columbus Dispatch in an editorial disapproving of the proposed bill to subsidise Wilmington College with a gift of $112,000 annually, takes the position that tho normal training departments at Ohio University Miami University, Ohio State University and others under state control should be strengthen­ ed and not create more institutions of the hind. To break over, this year would find other colleges demanding'aid next year. The -Dispatch says "The best place to stop in such a policy is before-the first appropriation has been made.” It is a well known fact that one large religious denomination in the state fs pressing for recognition. To recognize Wilmington means trouble ahead, not only for the state but for the Republican party. The bill giving aid to Wilmington is nothing more than using a college for political purposes—at the expense of the state. If the Despatch, as well as Governor Donahey, will take the trouble to investigate, it will be found that the Wilmington Col­ lege billgWas fostered by a former liquor* lobbyist and that the real purpose of the bill i$ political—nothing else. Committee seats carried an obligation to support such a meausre. The manner in which this bill has been handled is a disgrace to the state—and Wilmington College only lowers itself in accepting the subsidy under the conditions it has been fostered.

MICKIE SAY^ ONCE WARDEN— NOW GOVERNMENT GUEST- A1 Sartiln, Columbus politician, a member of the Ohio gang that went to Washington to wax fat finder the Daugherty plan of government operation, was only a few years ago the the Warden o f the Federal prison at Atlanta. Sartin operated -on the Daugherty alacarte plan’ and before his term was near completed was reifioved by the Coolidge Administration. The evidence gathered brought an indictment for Sartin and others and having been fqund guilty, Sartin was this week admitted as a prisoner in the institution he once headed as warden. Daugherty at this hour of writing is awaiting the verdict of a Federal jury and once a verdict of guilty is rendered- means that he too may meet his old political associate and both be guests of the gpvernment they attempted to s^rve—but without honor to themselves. There- have been times when high . powered politicians of the Daugherty brand would never even get; into court. But not so under the Coolidge administration^ Justice means no moire to the higher-ups than to the ordinary bootlegger. There is no back-door entrance to the President’s office for Daugherty who once was a power in government circles. ECONOMICS AND EFFICIENCY *Economics and efficiency. You have heard the terms before. When the Ohio legislature started operation two months ago you heard of promises of that kind. In the last campaign you heard the same thing. Both sound good.' Both provide the politicians-with subjects to interest the public. You can label most any kind of a bill one that will demand efficiency or it can be branded one calling for economy. >•How economy is being worked a bill is well under way to Increase, salaries of state officials from governbr down to mem­ bers of the legislature. The governor under the bill will get an increase from $10,000 to #18,000. State officers increased to. $7,500 while members o f the legislature want $4*800 for a two year term, instead qf the $2,OOU now paid for three or. four months work out o f twenty four. Such a measure as thisbrmgp . both terins Into play—efficiency and economy. ,More economy is theiplan to increase the gasoline tax and sVanother proposal to collect a heavy fee from .those who place a mortgage", on their property. Higher taxes"are to be collected from the corporations. There is no sign of reduction ‘in the cost of operating the. state along the lines that President Cool­ idge has put in force, With hundreds of people borrowing money to pay taxes and the legislature increaasing the cost of government by higher salaries only adds to the already confus- - ed public mind—that is is useless to go to the polls to v.ote. . ■ ---------- . - -\ PRESIDENT COOLIDGE AND HIS VETO The political farm block in Congress mustered enough votes to pass the “ McNary-Haughen” so-called farm relief bill. This Was anticipated sonje days previous to thq passage of the bill. The re-organization of the .National Farm Bureau some months ago along that line indicated that?the bill was to have almost solid support of the Western states. While the bill passed as predicted* it was vetoed by Presi­ dent Coolidge as predicted. To those who read the veto con­ clusive proof was offered by the President that the bill was not only^unwise and dangerous, but economically unsound. The President’s argument in support o f the veto was unanswerable and there will be no attempt to pass the measure over his veto. The condition that exists with agriculture today cannot be cured with that kind Of legislation. In the -first place no ordi­ nary farmer, businessman or banker could.be expected to have the spending of $250,000,000 o f the government's money to back and guarantee certain sectional crops. In the second-place the President’s hands were tied by the bill as to .whei-e he was to secure his appointments for this board to control this vast amount of money. Men of unusual ability and practical ex­ perience could only administer the duties expected under such a law. The President did not know, no do we believe any one other person could find the right kind that must be selected in accordance with the bill from sectional groups* Any law that attempts to fix prices is against safe and sane methods of doing business, To promise the farm interests cer­ tain profits oxi grains that must be so1d in a world market, can not be dona without a subsidy—-and this comes from the pock­ ets o f the American people. With profit making prices fixed attd no control of production naturally meant disaster to the government as a guarantor to the farm producer. So far as we can learn the average farmer approves of the veto. There are some that are ready fox* any kind of relief at any one’s expense other than their own. Some plan of eliminat­ ing middle men no doubt will aid in adding to the farmer’s in­ come. Most farmers want an open market for their produce and not legislation. Neither do they want loans from the gov­ ernment. Remove certam’restrictions and the farmer can and will work out his jpwn salvation. , The farm interests are meeting a heavy share of the cost of both state and national-governments. Farm leadership, in many instances has been tinged with politics. False issues have been raised to interest the farmer that his vote might be won. The cunning politician, state and national, knows more of how to please tho farmer than the farmer usually knows himself. In this situation the' farmer has been misled many times. He can blame no one but himself even though he never suspects the motive until it is too late—and tho politician has profited. Economies in state and national governments have a far more direct bearing on agiiculture interests than most farmers have any Idea, Cost of government, paid by taxes direct or indirect, are paid by the farmer in what he sells and what he purchases. The farmer ban no opportunity of adding overhead. - With the other lines of business taxes go as overhead and are returned indirectly in the retail sale price of merchandise, If there is anyone place where the farmer might help himself it is by farm forces demanding moreof a curtailment of the cost of state and national government, It appears that such relief is easier obtained than from the idea'of price fixing, which once established would lead to price fixing on other commodities and then the government would be swamped in the conduct o f big business with the tax payers paying for the losses, ■ . ♦AN, yp . $ otyxv snuo UVJfe VAVRW, NfV?.

Tho lo­ cal town folk have venerated this mountain and long ago wore a trail up It to eujoy the rare view frotn the top. i Army engineers then built a drive­ way to the top, going one way and. descending another. After this road was formally dedicated, a rough-hewn cross was erected on the highest point to preserve the memory of the crosses pf the mission days and Junlpero Ser- ra, the founder of the California mis­ sions, Thta gave birth to the thought that something In the way of a community religious occasion be Instituted here, out of which grew the Easter morn­ ing pilgrimage. Easter sunrise is the greatest Chris­ tian religious moment It was rea­ soned, therefore, that if people saw a sunrise In connection with religious thought the two things would effect a marked religious stimulus for the com­ munity, , The first year but a tittle handful of persons gathered around the cross for this simple sunrise service, Eleven hundred automobiles were counted as­ cending the driveway to witness a re­ cent service. \ - (g).
