When inhabitants lose confidence, when they be­ come suspicious o f each other and continue the habit, they are bringing destruction to their own interests. Is it not a fact that the future o f every individual is bound up in the future o f the place where he lives? We are advanc­ ing when we have faith in our home and show it by our works. The best policy fe to believe in your home town, support its bus­ iness enterprises, its churches and its schools, and stand by it in every possible opportunity. There is no doubt o f the result if such faith is manifiested. BRIGHT FUTURE FOR EDUCATION DEPARTMENT This week the Ohio Department o f Education passed under the control o f a new appointee, Dr. Skinner, former superin­ tendent o f public schools and recently resigned president o f a small college, as colleges and universities go nowadays. The public for at least two years has welcomed a change. During that period o f time, and possibly longer, Br. Clifton, now depos­ ed, did not function as in the years jprevious. Dr* Clifton had a long service in behalf o f education in Ohio, maybe the service was longer than it should have been, and he could have retired earlier with a better record, than what has been checked up against him in the past two or more years. The Cliffconidea o f late has had the mark o f force and driv­ ing. school patrons to do his wish. He had lost that idea o f ap­ peal that was outstanding during the earlier years o f his ser­ vice. He had become clouded with the great university idea o f dictator and in so doing lost respect Of the teaching element as well as the citizenery o f Ohio. We have never had personal contact with Dr. Skinner but from what we can learn he has the training and ability to head the Ohio Department o f Education. He comes from an environ­ ment such as predominates in Ohio. He has a personal interest in public schools..He knows the needs and the limit to what the Smaller colleges can go towards meeting requirements. He has a fins sense o f judgment as what is best fo r both schools and colleges. He moreover enters upon his official duties with background o f sentiment in support o f denomniational colleges and wbiat Christian education can mean and do in the future • fo r young folks, the state and the nation. Dr. Skinner will be put-tO-the "test many times during his administration with de mands for this and that from the university standpoint. We feel firom what we have heard o f his work that he has both the courage apd conviction to stand fo r the educational institutions in Ohio that have not been sold body and soul to the "modern­ istic" idea o f what constitutes educational training. Latin, Greek and the sciences have their proper place in educational -, standards but the highest attainment is a Christian education Without the present day university modernistic trehd. PRESIDENT DENOUNCESWHEAT SPECULATORS The wheat situation continues to get into a worse mixup day by day. What can be done to put it on a paying basis no •ne seems to know, or at least no one comes forward with apian that seems worth a trial; Wheat is the one crop that must be reckoned with as a world problem and in doing this the Amer­ ican fanner faces competition from Russia where wheat can be . produced at a profit 4 t 35 cents a bushel on board a vessel for export.. ' „ ‘ Just at present, the farmer is mostly concerned in the price o f the local crop. He' cannot help but feel blue when he must take a price fo r it much below cost o f production. Whether the price could be increased in the fa ce '‘'o f the present apparent overproduction, we doubt it very much. Most every one is con­ vinced that the carry-over crop o f last year has had much to do with present prices. The Federal Farm Board may have actec in good faith but the result has not been pleasing to wheat pro­ ducers .or the public in general. Fixing an/artificial price on a commodity is always a dangerous thing and a plan that is not a safe business proposition. ' a President Hoover a few days ago made an open attack on the grain gamblers and those speculators who have "sold wheat short." Makih’g an attack on a branch o f our national business life is a very unusual thing for a president, who speaks in an of­ ficial way. The wheat market is like the stock market when the "bulls’- are pushing np the price, even on a stock that may have a very low book value, good money is going into a bad ven­ ture. For years this sort o f speculation has had the approval o f the American people who would endorse that form o f gamb­ ling. Now that the “ bear” market is showing itself on wheat as well as industrial stocks, there is criticism all along the line. It has beCn suggested more than once that probably a good movement in this country would be a "moratorium,” or holiday, for the stock markets. In at much at wheat and grain gamblers is the popular topic o f the day; we will 'confine ourselves to the problem o f wheat, sort o f "halfway approving race home gambling and op­ posing dog race gambling. A feature o f the wheat problem is being discussed more, today than a month ago and that is just how many million bushels o f wheat has the Federal Farm Board and where is this wheat storred? I f the Board owns 200,000,000 bushels o f wheat it would require many elevators to store it. The public has a right to know just where this wheat it aa it was purchased with public money. It has been hinted in many quarters that the Board may not have a bushel o f wheat and that the two hundred millions only represents "pa­ per wheat." I f this is the case then the Board has been gamb- ", ling in wheat through market speculation in the hope o f stimu­ lating the market price. I f the Board cannot show storage re­ ceipts fo r actual wheat President .Hoover in his attack on the grain speculator* «irnay be'handing a stinging rebuke to the members o f his Farm Board. What ever the Board jhias or has not done it owes the country a statement as to where this wheat is stored and the number o f bushels in each elevator, other­ wise there is a lurking suspicion the Farm Board has not played a square game with the wheat growing farmer. down. Business men now require P m endorsement of the Community Qufe officials, but this is not msndmtory on the part of business men contribut­ ing. Wednesday found a nroman with small child in arms beeping money to buy gasoline to .get on their way. The husband was at*a distance sitting in the automobile, gt is likely tb*f* people are making their living this way yet there is a remote chapce they may be -the victims of hard luck on the road. If so it was foolish for them, to start a trip withont sufficient finan­ ces to reach' their destination. We were interested Wednesday In a radio broadcast by John §impaon, .of Oklahoma, an officer in * western farm organisation. In directly he pro-, poses "that’ this- government-do- Uke^ the foreign governments,-cancel all mortagages on farm land. Probably such a thing could be done here but U. S. money may then drop to a new Jo\\r level like European money*. We wbuld be in the market for a farm on the mortgage plan should the govern­ ment step in to pay off the mortages. Also the fellow that now has mort­ gaged, land might want another farm right quick so the government could pay off two mortgages instead of one. The -U. S<can run their printing'pres­ ses just as fast as any European na­ tion printing money, Russia is a fine example but printed money must have gold on deposit with the government to make it good, or at least worth 100 cents on the dollar.

The Springfield pad Clifton pike is being given a top dressing of farvia and atone this week by employees of the State Highway Department. At a result the road- is closed for a fetf days to traffic* This road has been in the experimental stage for severs) years. Thousands and thousands of dollars of the motorists gasoline tax money has been wested on it. It was one o f the first experimentsl roadx on ideas laid down by a politician but as the year* have come and gone it has been' a dividend payer for a certain gravel company. - At one time the statewas payingmore for gravel than what stone would have cost. Two years ago a tar top was put on bnt it did not stand use during the win­ ter. -The road could have been stoned, rolled and given a. tar top five years ago and much money saved but the investment would not have been a good thing for the gravel company.

How many bread consumers stop to chink or even consider what might be a determining factor in reducing the mst of bread. There are some five or more bread trucks that -come .here daily from neighboring cities. The drivers of these trucks are individual Merchants in a wholesale way*,. They pay for the bread at the bakery before they leave and then call on merchants to sell it. The company owns the trucks or backs the' drivei in a finan­ cial way. The driver must pay for oil and gasoline in most cases* The com pany must have a profit to cover the cost of manufacture of bread and to pay an investment for owning tracks. The driver'must have a profit to get x living wage, plub cost of oil and gas­ oline, The merchant must''have a profit. In other worda jsach loaf of out of town bread must provide three separate and distinct profits. From this-it is essy to see that the test! mony of the bread manufacturers was correct. Then the only way the con- summer can lower the price of bread to himself is to-purche» bread of one kind* As long as five diferent com- panics ship in bread and each must Hav;e a profit there la no chance o f a lower price even with wheat at the lowest price in years. If all the bread used in Gedarville and communitywas made by a local concern where it can be delivered practically without edit there,would be a chance of lowering the price. As it is the local bakery finds the business cut up between the five outside concerns and itself. The solution is in the hands of the con­ sumers. The big foreign companies ssy there is no way of reducing the price. There.is ’no question but what the price would be lowered If the local bakery had the business to justify it. Morfebver the local bakery is a part of the community while the foreign bread companies are owned in Wall Street Every dollar that goes to Wall street stays there. It never has a chance of circulating in this com­ munity agsin. The present bread dis­ tribution'is an economic Waste in de­ livery costs if nothing else. Some weeks ago we had a talk with a former driver of one of the travel­ ing bread or cake companies that de­ livered as described above. Our in­ formant quit his job jmeauss he could not make a living wage. He told how the company managed the business and how the goods were baked and then shipped to certain point* for the driver agent, He described how cheap the goods were made and told of a particular cake that cost tee* than three cents in the oven apd «o|d on the market for fifteen eents.

Another law passed is to govern the selection of prospective jurors. The jury commission is rsquired to esU persons selected for the jury wheel before it for' an examination as to mentality and a lot o f other things* The law as we understand it was sponsored by the legal profession and prospective jurors now will want to know as to who is to examine the law­ yer*. Of course in rural counties there is not much need of such legislation and we doubt If it will accomplish much in the metropolitan counties, If there has been grounds for criti cism of the old law it was the favorit­ ism shown in the selection, whether the proposed jurer was Republican or Democrat or what faction he repre­ sented. We have heard complaints a- mong the legal fraternity along that Simpson talked o f the wheat situa­ tion and the present prices and gave his idea of howWheat could be sentto iyro dollars A bushel. It was another plan of artificial price fixing, even a step more radical than what the Farm Board has adopted* He quoted the testimony of heads of big baking com cents last winter when called before the Capper Senate Investigating Com- nittee, who claimed that bread could rot -be.sold for a cent cheaper i f the v]}eat was given to them free.
