SPEAKER TARIFF AS A THING OF BARTER OR FOOTBALL The tariff is a necessity to this country for revenue and pro­ tection. There was a time when probably every interest had a square deal in our tariff legislation, along with labor. # As the years have come and gone the tariff has become a political loot- ball but the last tariff act was an object of barter, trading be­ tween various interests, even to the detriment of other inter­ ests, .With it came sectional differences and more trades were made. For instance the south and northwest wants a high tar­ iff on lumber, but favor no tariff or a very low tariff on coal. In the oil and gasoline industry we have a low tariff thaf permits Russian and foreign gasoline to enter in competition with the hundreds of independent producers. This has almost ruined the production o f oils and gasoline in our*interior states. Many discrepancies can be noted in the present tariff law but the steel-and aluminum trusts, sponsors of the bill, had all the protection they asked for, and this may have been too much for it has caused Canada, England and other countries to go this country one better in the game of boosting. The Canadian government last week gave this country a black eye with high­ er tariffs and shuts out more than $150,000,000 of American business Charles M. Schwab, head of one of the large steel companies,, gave an interview in London, Erig., Tuesday, which should speak for itself: “ I think the Ottawa agreement will hit the United States steel industry, particularly our exports to Canada, which is our largest export market.” - American products shut out of Canada are drugs, glass, tex­ tiles, automobiles, tobacco, leather, canned fruit, rubber boots and shoes, radios, agricultural products, coal, iron, steel, and • other products of American manufacture. For instance our wheat under agreement between England and Canada, must be taxed 4 1-2 cents a bushel to permit Canadian wheat to en­ ter England free.. By the Ottawa conference England and Can­ ada have arranged a tariff schedule to shut out American goods in England. Another feature of the tariff situation in this country is the lack of sufficient protection to the paper industry, foreign paper coming in against our own invested capital and labor. News­ paper interests are much* like other interests and want news­ print imported under a low tariff to permit a low price on paper tb the detriment of American paper interests. Yet many of the newspapers today preaching defense of the present tariff law are printed on imported paper at a lower price than it can be produced in this, country. All of this is conclusive that we are facing a change in the present tariff to meet conditions since foreign countries have changed from free trade to high protec­ tive tariff. This cannot be done by anyother method than a re­ ciprocal basis. If not this country will stand still and no place Jto market our surplus agricultural products as well as our man­ ufactured .goods. Standing still means, continued low prices and closed down factories. The next congress will face this situa­ tion and one cart almost predict from the tone of the statement of Charles Schwab-that a change will take place for today the steel industry has only a twenty percent production on lower prices than in. former years. So why get excited over campaign promises. After the e1action Mr. Common ’ Citizen is the “for­ gotten man” with the politicians. : ' The pot continue* to boil in the Seventh Congressional District over the attitude o f Cong. Charles Brand jn bolting President Hoover, as an enemy o f agriculture. Clark and Champaign counties have demanded that he re­ sign but only two o f the nine counties in the district have taken any action. Why Greene county holds back, when Candidate Marshall, head o f the ex­ ecutive committee holds back, no one knows. He. has not even issued a statement as to hia views, which may or may not be taken by the public as giving approval to Brand's action. It waa only four short years ago that Brand and Marshall fought Hoover in the primary in the interest o f the late Frank B. Willis, who was then a can­ didate for the presidential nomination. Whet Brand and Marshall called Hoover would not look well in print now in the midst, o f a campaign when Marshall is trying to help hold up1 “ Sir Herbert" as the W illisforces re­ ferred to him in those days. . Cong. Brand is not going'to resign, that is settled. He seems to have set himself to stand by his guns until the ixpiration o f his term next March. Brand issued his ultimatum Monday n tfie following statement: “As to resignation, I will fight fo r the farmer until March. 4, 1938, and then as a private citizen begin a- yain lighting for their cause on March The iron is hot and it is time to strike. Industry now knows what I advocate must be done. We,cannot, profit half tariff and half world price. . . . Roosevelt fo r effective farm .•elief; Hoover against. What a spec- acle! Why does not the Republican iarty put up a Republican grounded n the faith?” It is said both state and' national party politicians that have visited in Fayette county are aspunded what they find in a once hid-bound Repub­ lican county. Fayette county has had more than its, share o f bank failures md with farm crop conditions at the •owest prices in a century, farmers have turned against the administra­ tion. Condition* ate almost at the point o f revolt from all reports. The outcome o f the recent trials when the courts have ordered new triple at great expense in the Mai Daughertj bank failure, and no funds fo r other trials, the populace has given up hope for relief in any direction, As a result Communist leaders have started in to organize the county. And then we wonder what leads people to Com­ munism. Daugherty haa long been a power in Republican jpolitics and had much to say in the Seventh District: His control o f affairs has wrecked his county and driven its citizens to dis­ traction, making a fertile field fo r the development o f Communism., E.

REPORT OF THE CONDITION OF FARMERS and TRADERS BANK e At Jamestown in the State o f Ohio, at the close 4t business September 39, I f 12- RESOURCE8 Loans on Real Estate CLAPTRAP IN A CAMPAIGN The air is full of political discussion by radio and the man­ ner in which votes are being sought borders in many instances on the ridiculous. Amateur and professional actors have been employed to imitate individuals and national groups by their, skits, playletts, and jokes. ’ The picture screen has been used to spread propaganda, all to the disgust o f most of the populace. The Cincinnati Enquirer aptly comments on the situation: a“ It must be recognized that political discussion in the present campaign is on a lower plane than in many years. No one who has listened to the vaudeville sketches broadcast to sway voters tojone party or the other can deny that they were written on the plane of a child’s intelligence. Faked interviews with mythical persons are offered on the air, the, product of the same wise- crackers who \vrite advertising skits for tooth paste and. hair tonic. . . The tariff cannot be explained in a one-act playlet,, nor agricultural economics in a vaudeville skit.” An amusing skit was taken from the air one night last week at a early morning hour. It came out of Chicago where the background for what Was said was proper. Two actors in Italian dialect were staged as labors, one trying to explain to the other why he should be for Hoover. As the skit went on prohibition-was touched upon arid in good imitation “ dago” .one said to the other that the President had the best plan to bring back beer and With his early Quaker training and background he could be depended upon for Southern states would not let the Democratic repeal plan be adopted. * Another comical “ news red ” stunt was the showing em­ ployees by the hundreds, men and women, returning to work in an Ohio factory. A section of a real taken during the war had been worked over. What caused the cqmment was that the wo­ men were nojt dressed, nor did they have their hair fixed, as of today. The picture had been originally taken during the war and the styles compared with today gave the whole thing away. Meantime both major political parties continue to pay $17,000 an hour for a national hook-up and a large per cent of the old fashioned radio battery receivers not in commission. The reaction to the statement of Jong, Brand in bolting is probably without precedent. Only a few poli­ ticians of the boss type have come ,'orward to denounce Brand. In talk- ng several days ago.with a prominent Sugarcreek Twp. -Republican farmer, ■ve asked his views on Brand bolting. Ie replied that he had not heard of tny complaint among farmers in his section about the bolt, as most o f he farmers were’ forced to bolt as a irotest as to what had been done. It s an unusual year in politics as well is in business. Editor Tibbfd* o f the Franklin Cbroncile comments on the Brand apiBode as follows: “ I t is a sad spec­ tacle ifo see our Congressman from the famous old Seventh District bolt the Republican ticket on the eve o f a national election, yet that is exactly what the Hon, Charles. Brand has done. Congressman Brand has repre­ sented this District in: Congress for the past decade. In all those years we have never heard o f one outstand­ ing thing that he. has accomplished. Now when his term o f office is rap­ idly approaching its; close he makes all good. Republicans the laughing stock o f our Democratic friends by repudiating President Hoover and en- Jorsing Franklin D. Roosevelt. Ye, gods! To what depths have we sunk! And-on- November 8th, the voters, through the weakness o f the primary system, can take their choice between twp petty politicians: for Congressman to succeed Charlie Brand. Is it any wonder we’re in a .heck o f a mess?" SHERIFF'S SALE ORDER OF SALE The Cedarville Building and Loan Assocation vs, Arthur B. McFarland, at al. Greene County Common Pleas Court.

When Brand ran fo r congress ten /ears ago he was regarded as the lardest working" candidate that ever an for any office in the district. He vent night and day and the moat ob­ scure road was never missed in his :anvasg over the nine counties. He :new the kind o f a campaign that-was lecessary in a rural district.. Being i man o f wealth, farmer and banker, it would not look well to travel in a ine sedan, for in those days there vere’more open cars than closed, the atter costing much more. Brand had an old touring car with faded back curtain and no more paint on the gas mggj' than could he expected for one ihat had had hard use and was going aut of style. With an ordinary hat and overcoat he made his round* get- „ing acquainted with farmers. His appearance and the shabby condition of the old open touring car evidently had an appeal. The farmer did not enow that he left the car in the dif­ ferent counties for campaign purposes and that he arrived in Xenia in a fine sedan with chauffer. Changed hat and overcoat and was on his way seeking votes to be nominated. Brother Tibbals should not forge' there is to be consolation conditioned on Candidate Marshall,!* success at the polls on November 8th. Being straddler on the wet and dry question he. must face the fatal hour o f mak­ ing a decision on1roll call. It will be no small honor to his political spon­ sor; Hon, Dewitt Clinton Pemberton, Columbus, former lobbyist fo r Cin- •innati liquor interests, who will want to conduct his protege down the isle uid introduce him to the membership. Then and then only, will we know vhether he has lied to the wets or to he drys! Jfi* record while a’ mem- ter o f the Ohio senate is a safe guar­ antee that the public utility interests /ill have a friend in'court. Before wo years pass there may be a renew- d o f a-demand f o r a resignation much ouder than the call to Cong. Brand n the present fiesco. HOW MUCH IS LIFE WORTH? More than four score human lives have been lost in traffic accidents in Columbus during the eight months of the present year, and this bloody record has attracted only passing atten­ tion. There has been no loud and insistant demand that great­ er protection to life be provided for those who make necessary use of the streets. The same story can be told of a hundred other American cities where 30,000 men, women and children died in traffic last year. Indications are thfit Quite as many will die in traffic this year and a million others will be injured in the country. With that awful record staring the public in the •face, in not,a single city has public indignation mounted so high that municipal action was started. However, the publication of a story of a battle between a garter snake and a large spider, brought forth from a score of cities a public outcry and a demand that officials interfere and stop the battle and prevent one from destroying the other. .And that public tumult was sufficient to compel official action. There is a curious difference in human appreciation of val­ ues. Human life, the most precious thing on earth, is destroyed in a wholesale manner, has been crushed out in that way for years, and the public passes by with only scant notice. It does not give approval, but it permits it to be continued. But a hun­ dred people were ready to go to great lengths to have ended a natural combat between insect and a reptile, creatures o f the wild, acting under laws that govern them. Thousands of others shouted loud approval of the leaders who were frahtic to stop a bit o f rivalry between the creeping and crawling things of the woodlands. ; How much longer will the public permit by silence the slaughter and carnage on the highways? STRAW VOTE GOING UP^MARKETS DOWN Politicians who watch the straw votes are puzzled this year as never before. Usually after political speeches there is a change in the percentage of the vote, one way or the other. Thus far the percentage o f the vote remains just about where it was a month ago. The expected big boost in the stock market as well as on live stock and grains has not taken place. Since September the price range in both has been oh the general de­ cline. Voters evidently are not easily swayed by speakers for either party this year. A few years ago congress raised the salary o f all members for $7,500 to $10,000. There was opposition to the step among rural people., and Mr. Brand to be solid with the voters at once announced that he would give the difference between the old and new splary to counties for the purchase o f 3tone crushers. He was then in* hit gravel road campaign to catch votes and this won him additional honor and victory, The public took it as a Won­ derful feat, but the public never stopped to consided how much more tax money it took to get started ih the crushing business. Neither was it ever stated publically just what kind of stone crushers were purchas­ ed, We have not’ to. this day been able to figure out whether Brand was just catching votes or representative of stone crushing machinery interests. At best as a campaigner he was able to sell himself to the voters in this district five different times. The Interanl Revenue Department has decided, after much investigation that a tomato is a vegetable. The question arose over tomato juice as a fruit juice and subject to a tax, The use of tomato juices a health bev­ erage has grown into large propor­ tions, The tomato being a Vegetable and not a fruit, the juice is not tax­ able. Tlie United States has its Reno as a haven where the unhappy 'couples and picture actors can get divorces it short order. One or two other states have cut the red tape on divorces but Mexicb has a new plan for easy and. cheap divorces, arid will bid for this; brarich of our legal business. There is to be no need for a lawyer, All the couple has to do is to appear before a justice of the peace or a civil court The United States Supreme Court 'endered an important decision sev­ eral days ago in reference to the tax­ payers strike'in Chicago when many thousands o f property owners refused to pay their taxes, Suits were brought :o stop collection in behalf of prop- irty owners by an association. By a decision o f the Supreme Court the au­ thorities are compelled to proceed un- ler the law* to make collections. Since -he moratorium idea was placed in force tax payers have the mistaken dea that taxes can wait. *However in many cases taxes are not paid be­ cause of financial troubles or reduced indome. The same might be* said a- bout payment o f notes, The signing of a note is a contract that calls for fulfillment o f an obligation bn a cer­ tain date and only the holder of the note can declare a moratorium.
