REMEMBER THOSE IN DISTRESS The call of the Red Cross for $5,000,000 to aid more than 100,000 in the fl<!k>d districts of the south should not be over­ looked, TJje appeal from President Coolidge that the people o f this country remember the unfortunate through this greaj agent of mercy, the Red Cross, should have a ready response in not only this county but this community. We have many things , to be thankful for and one is that this section hase never yet •been*visited by flood, cyclone or any other great disaster that takes human life and brings destruction and waste to happy families, regardless of their station in life. Greene County has been given a quota .of $1575. It should be raised within twenty-fours without solicitation. No county in the state is more able to raise this small amount that will aid in doing so much good. Chairman Galloway of the County Red Cross chapter will receive your gift. Remember the distress that followed the 1913 flood in Dayton and Columbus. In the South whole counties have been depopulated by the rising wat­ ers. This county came to the front in the membership drive and will have first place again if we each do our part. THE DIRECT LEVY VETO Governor Donahey has vetoed the bill which proposed to put a direct state tax levy upon all the property of Ohio people as a convenient way of doing away with an invited treasury deficit. The governor's action in this, matter is right. There was no* excuse whatever for restoring the direct levy except to give Ohio’s jobholders more money to squander, Ev6r Since there was a $20,000,.000 surplus in'the treasury the state com­ missions and’ their subordinate papsuckers have been spending money like drunken sailors. They saw the day o f reckoning approaching but made no effort to stave it off, Least ofall did they try the simple policy of avoiding a deficit by spending less. They went right on spending more, and now they want to pass to.the taxpayers the job of refilling the busted treasury. It is to be hoped that this action of the governor will cause the legislature to take a new thought of its duty to the taxpay­ ers of Ohio. Secretary Chandler of the state chamber of com­ merce is still making speeches all over Ohio warning the people that the state is losing its industries because of the high taxa­ tion needed to keep extravagance in funds. Once again a Re­ publican legislature has played into the hands of a Democratic governor by going ahead stubbornly with its plan to increase the tax burden;, when every Consideration of public and private ^interest called for the very other course. ---Springfield Sun.

Much of the work o f the present session has been bungled. Special inter­ ests have sacrificed the interests of the people as & whole to get What was wanted. The lobby around the state house in the in-, terest of special bills was the largest ever known. Attorney General Edward Turner says that the state house was “ lousy" with lobbyists. One of the news paper correspondents on the ground daily states that lobbyists traded not only individual members but groups of them among one another. Mi*. Turner served as Attorney General some years ago, Under his former term he was forced to clean out the state house and it will be remembered some three m* four were sent to state prison. Mr. Turner exposed the telephone1lobby that was trying to obstruct state business and in almost an instant, members rallied to support the Attorney GeneraTand the lobby in that, instance wps routed. It was the fear of the Attorney General that caused the legislature to step .up and do its duty and forget any obligation to the lobby. The Ball bill to repeal the Pence law giving utility concerns the right to collect ^higher rates in advance of a permanent rate was smothered. There is a feeling that Governor Donahey should call a special session and confiqe the legislature to this one issue, which is within his power. It would be interesting to see just how each and every member votes on that question. Moreover it is not denied in many quarters that there is a working agreement among the lobby for the utility interests and a certain x-eform organization with headquarters in Col- The lobby supplies funds to elect members to the legislature that have the necessary “ refoi’m" requirements,' In return the lobby gets what it -wants and the reform organization the votes it needs. In other words the time has come when to get “ re­ form” legislation, the public must be soaked for ufijiist rates by certain utility companies. It would be interesting to see the legislature in action when confined to the utility question, * .
