Fe*a and Dr. Rus­ sell, founder o f the Anti Saloon league, over the Senator'* position on resubmission o f the liquor question. have conferred over the* problem o f settlement o f European . debts due this nation, public attention naturally is focused on Letters vere exchanged two weeks this issue, From surface indications England is the only nation ago and again this week. The Senator that expects to m a te payment this -month, France,. Germany, Hill insists that the Republicans have Belgium and Italy- are applying the famous moratorium rule the bust methods of handling the and w ill take a holiday whether this country agrees or not, and | liquor problem and that he will stand . apparently there is no one in Washington at this time treat has |firm on the party plank on that enb- issued orders or demanded payment in agreementAvHh the terms o f the last debt settlement con ferenbp^TbsJbg land ’ s credit it must be said that o f all payments rtfade this nation so fa r she has cred it.o f paying three-fourths. This leaves four other nations credited with paying only one-fourth. With this situation we hear the fou r nations which have paid only a fraction asking fo r debt reduction and more time In justice be fore there is a reduction, if one is necessary, Eng- lahd should have first consideration. France has abundance o f gold on hand to meet each and every payment. Belgium and Italy can pay in time and probably will. Germany has a very heavy load but was given more than sixty years to pay put. With business, the farmer.apd home owner, heavily in debt, -using a broad expression,, there naturally is little sympathy to be found fo r debt reduction, let alone can ce lla tion .. The people o f this country fee l that i f a public debt is to be cancelled the government has as much right under the civil, international, or moral law, to ask fo r cancellation o f private debts. Such an act is not only a long way in the distance, but sentiment f o r it is to be found everywhere.. W ith sentiment such as it is this admin­ istration and the one. that fo llow s will fa ce troublous times un­ less some methods can be found to improve business and get the farmer a living profit fo r his crops. The people o f this country that are burdened with debt are not asking for' alms. They only want the opportunity to b e able to pay their obligations. Concerning England’s payment o f some $125,000,000 this month, it will be in pound? sterling at its face value but not the market value. The English pound has dropped in market value to $3.15, the lowest in the history o f that country. President Hoover is^willing to accept this payment but announces that it will not be cashed, but held until the pound sterling rises near its supposed value; Months ago England went o f f the gold standard and this complicates matters in our financial relations. There are few .peop le that will approve the President’s proposal fo r it is much like the idea o f the federal farm board plan o f purchasing and holding wheat, only to see the price continue to fa ll. England apparently is doing nothing to bolster up the pound sterling, the lower it gets the easier it will be to pay her debts, but at a loss to this nation and each and every citizen. Th e tariff situation is reflected in this low money market. With cheap money foreign nations can ship their merchandise . into this country and overcome the present tariff rates. This is noticed in the business world more and more each day. These foreign nations are enabled to undersell our manufacturers on account o f the cheap money and very low wages, resulting in a continuance o f our unemployment problem, which has now reached eleven million. Thereas little or no hope o f restoring the nation’ s credit un­ less foreign countries make payments on their debts. To levy Additional taxes on our people would only add to the burden of not only the person now in debt but to others as. well. Much has been lacking in the way o f leadership with the present ad­ ministration. We have been allowed to drift in a hopeless sea o f European- intrigue. Straight from the shoulder talking has been lacking in many ways and w e ’have allowed debtors to tell us what they will do, even in the f Ace o f what is regarded boni­ fied contracts. As has been said '.’Europe should pay or repud­ iate.'? ject. Dr. Russell h*s not been con­ verted to the Republican idea *nd h|i written the Senator in plftiu terms. As the Senator standB now he should not damage his political reputation to any extent? fo r he can ho for both the, wets and the drys. In time he may get somewhat galled riding in, a straddled position. Who is to he. the next postmaster in Xenia? That question is now much discussed in the G a w 0 Capital. With election results s*f.they .^ere. many hangea could be expected and the Democratic hrethem would get on the government payroll for passing out ,he mail. In As much as Cong, Brand excommunicated himself by... the un­ pardonable sin o f bolting ,his party nominee, Hoover, fo r reflection , he irobably will not be consulted, altho t is his patronage until next March The fly in the ointment for the Re­ publicans is what the Democrats will lo in the Senate, when they go into session Monday? It was back in the larding-administration when the Re publican senate turned down many nominations sent in during the end of he Wilson administration. Democrat .c leaders are demanding the same brand o f medicine for all Republican nominations sent in by Pres. Hoover iltate Blue Sky Dspertmant has taken the case in hand an* e*WMd *n fediet- went. Thou* who purchased an in­ terest still believe they are to get rich from estates, which dates hack to 1706 and have been revived much on the plan adopted to get road assessments repaid to land owners. During de­ pression times such contests in the courts makes good business f o r at torneya, Meantime thousands are living in expectation o f great riches, A fine thing to think about' but a poor investment -for returns to pay taxes, gas bills, etc. When the billion dol­ lar corporations are forced to pay for 7*luable New York sites a second time we predict it will he more than 1705 : years before any oftheir money is dis­ tributed to those who might be heirs j r those, who purchased shares. But “ Something fo r Nothing” is all­ ways with us. While the Xenia meet- : ng was in session there was on the corner o f Main and Detroit * -street salesman selling “bargains” from an automobile. He had the sales-talk that brought the business and his ap­ peal was to the gang gathered about. Re knew more o f how to handle mob psychology than he knew o f merchan­ dise, for instance pearl necklaces at 25c each. Soafttimes we wonder i f any state can legislate to give 10.0 per cent protection to its people.. STYLE NOTES Leather Jewelry la smart for sportswear. , Velvet-faced knitted cloth Is a recent development. Dresses buttoned at the hack or down the front are good style. The black daytime dress with white details Is an early fall fa­ vorite. Designers are working with braid and fur trimmings In the Victorian manner, Kid gloves with perforated flar­ ing cuffs done in very lacy open- work patterning are attractive, Box-pleated ruches In let form, which throw over the head, o f or­ gandie wide ribbon or velvet, are offered in neckwear departments, OUR PROBLEMS ARE FINANCIAL, ECONOMIC, SOCIAL Congress meets Monday fo r what is known as the “ lame duck” session, probably the last session where defeated mem­ bers at a preceeding election, w ill legislate. It should have been outlawed years ago but the members could not be made con­ scious o f the fa c t that a defeated member had no business to act in such a capacity. No congress will face graver problems than that which is soon to convene. Th e nature o f the three outstanding problems are financial* economic and social, There will be many bills in - , troduced along these lines and many others that probably have 3e?iat'-‘ that have not actod upon' no bearing on the demand o f the times but the greatest contri- owr nrpvifiUR to the elec- butjon that can be made would be a billion cut in government expenses. The whole federal government is loaded with com­ missions, bureaus and various boards that are not much more r h o v i VTfininlAn 4? am A lik ! 1 . ..! 1 . . • ** . _ v ” Postmaster Frazer’s term fo r the Xenia office expires in January, He will ask fo r reappointment according 0 his friends.

It is very likely before m examination could be . held the Hoover administration will have pas­ sed into history, or so near it the Democratic Senate would not confirm, my Republican appointment. Another .tory afloat in Columbus is that the 1'resident is so disgusted with Repub- ican party management, and espec- ally in Ohio, that he may refuse to nake any but major appointments luring the remainder o f his' term. He now has many nominations before the ill carried, over previous to the elec­ tion. than vehicles fo r politicians to ride up to Uncle Sam’s pay win­ dow each month. President Hoover will likely ask fo r a half billion cut but business interests insist pn much more. We have just passed through a campaign that has made the American citizen more tax conscious than at any time .in the past forty years. The burden is-heavy and each and every .step o f con-1 gress will be measured by a watchful populace. , Li eutenant Governor Pickrell has sounded a note fo r Ohio i ... , , . .. ... that is now heard over the entire country— “ No More New t I v th,s may 1x5an ,mporUnt matter mth es.> Such a rfogan can be adopted in W a s h in g X T t e p r ^ * ” ~ v?K,fi?^lniS« f tloni y aTS siow in measuring this demand and w a s , rebuked at the polls last month. Useless spending by Uncle Sam must be stopped, i f not only the fa te o f a future election awaits the incoming administration. I f there is to be an opening fo r a Republican appointment in Xenia, a tfarm contest can be expected. Post­ master Frazer is credited with having i pretty close connection with Sen. Fess and will also have the backing of at least a good part o f the business 'interests. J. A. Chew, publisher, has no small drag with the Senator, and the Senator, who must come fo r re- election in two years. If the Senator ever needed support it will be in two years. He has lost his farm following and the wet and dry question hobs up like a scare-crow. I f he can con tinue to ride that issue double as Dr. Russell charges, he may win in county and state without any trouble. How far Marshall can influence Fess for McCallister is an unknown quantity.

How we use the day very 'argely depends on what the return is to be. Several days ago two up-state ity stockftrading salesmen walked into this ofilce to interest us in own­ ing what later turned out to be bury­ ing space in a corporation owned cem­ etery. Selling stock' in a cemetery is very unusual. These men had a very fine prospectus o f the grounds. The landscaping was perfect from the ar­ tistic viewpoint. Their salestaik was convincing. It was anvopportunity to trade in what they claimed was stock o f low value fo r their good stock. The stock salesmen had a. very dark fu­ ture pictured fo r the Hooven & Alli­ son Company, Xenia. ■As a result all holders o f this; stuck were taking a big risk and should convert it into a safer investment—cemetery stock, the one needed place fo r us ali as some any people will continue to die in good times as Well as bad. Each share o f the H . & A . stock could be traded for a share, or section in the beautiful landscaped cemetery. A sec­ tion was simply * grave space. We lave no means o f knowing how many in the county have been interested in :his new kind o f investment. We do ’chow that stocks wanted iff such deals night be the best kind to continue to 3wn—unless yoU want a future bury- h g place.

In the past most public utility :ompanies have been generous but if? -hey are not subscribing this year a very good reason cab be found. Last winter Governor White called the leg- slhture to enact a one per cent excise -ax on all Ohio Utility companies to be Dsed f o r poor relief purposes. It then s not -surprising the companies are tot subscribing this year. This relief ax is in addition to sill other taxe so the public h*s no? right to expect very iberal subscriptions to chest funds, if any, Recount o f election results have iecn in progress in a number o f Ohio counties, where Candidates they have x chance o f winning by uncovering errors in the count. The law provides ihat the candidate wishing a recount must file a bond or deposit a certain sum per precinct to be checked, If errors found equal two per cent o f the vote cost, the county stands the cost. I f not the candidate must pay all charges. The cost feature has been provided fo r in recounts but why not draw the line just a bit tighter on election officials. There is hardly any excuse for precinct officials to over­ look a total o f one or even three hun­ dred votes that are -due a candidate In some ’counties errors o f 300 votes to the precinct were found. Enough o f such precincts and the county must pay for the recount after having paid election officials a high price. Why not hold up the pay o f election officials until the time passes for a recount. I f such glowing errors are afterward* found, withhold the pay o f election of­ ficials, Errors will be found occasion­ ally, hut election results are just as important, as correct balance o f your bank account, L O A N S UP TO $500 ON YOUR A U T O or other personal security.
