Pemberton of Columbus, to control j a break Republican organization politics in this big Republican district of nine. opportU] in stock prices. At the firBt t li counties, with a view to obtaining a firmer grip on state Republican organ­ ization control. When Howard announced his candidacy Pemberton saw to it that a group of those whom ho is alleged to control in some of the^counties of the district, met him in Columbus, in a conference where Howard's candidacy was declared unsatisfactory. Pemberton insisted that Sherman Deaton of Urbana, now known to be of his choice, be returned for a sixth term. Thus tho issue has become clearly drawn, Although Howard has been a loyal Republican who has given years of time and effort to constructive wprk for his party, although he stands high as a citizen and has a reputation for integrity and decency second to none, although he in no sense poses as a reformer or a crusader but insists upon honesty and service as being the best kind o f politics and as a member of the Madison county Republican committee is a strong believer and supporter of clean organization politics, never-the-less he is declared “unsatisfactory” by Pemberton and his satellites who are interested in politics for what they make out of it. 0 ■ Whether Howard is successful in his fight against the Pemberton type of organization which has fastened itself in many unseen and undercover ways upon many individuals in the district, .depends upon whether the Re­ publicans of the district are sufficiently interested in their party to take part ir< helping to make its organization.something to be proud of, not some­ thing to be apologized for; whether the people, who want to see clean organ­ ization in them counties and district, take sufficient interest to turn out and vote for what they know to be right, or whether they unwittingly permit the Pemberton type of politician to maintain control and continue the secret arid selfish maneuvering that disgusts most people and is responsible for ob­ noxious and unwholesome conditions and weakened party spirit, The Republican party cannot afford to permit a lobbyist such as Pem­ berton to assume the role of spokesman for this or any other district or to dictate policies, plans or organization with the party, For years Pember­ ton was. willing to be known as a lobbyist for certain railway interests but in the past few years is said also to be tied up with certain other interests which, are supposed freely to provide him with, funds that will enable him and others in the same business to operate along lines politically beneficial to-those .interests. ■ During the past few years, this lobbyist has become so emboldened by his contacts with individuals and political organizations of the seventh dis­ trict which formerly was his home, and through “favors” has obtained such a firm grip on some of the organization leaders in the district that he now secretly assumes to control their actions, though of course- they would vigor­ ously deny,this.' By this means he implies a personal control of the district so as to enable him to make such deals and trades as are to his advantage, He sees to it that those whom he controls carry out his wishes, So rapidly and to such a degree has he assumed this attitude during the past two or . three years that he, and his friends, insist that he “ be seen” before any political move, or candidacy, in the district, is to be considered. This is the ' reason that when a district meeting is called only chairmen and secretaries are given voting power in such a district assembly. If too many Republicans are. called in there might.be developments which would disturb Pemberton’s plans. Only through a small, well controlled group, can his work be done. The Republicans of Ohio had better get rid of the influence of such dollar and cents manipulators if they desire to attain the success which their party deserves and has a right to expect. ’ The people of Ohio are growing decidedly weary of .the political domina­ tion and legislative meddling by such forces as the Pembertons, the “Brady” Hazards, or the Niharts of ill repute in school book company activities, and | others of their ilk. Unfortunately most candidates through fear of embarrassment, or threat o f loss of the -over-estimated speak out on this issue but the sooner our leaders recognize paign to force a cleanup o f the mo- ortunity those on the inside of Protest- manipulation have sold heavriy to an wtg> JeW8 and Cathol}cs uaited unsuspected public.

This parent is just as much at sea today to know what to do with the son as if he had ventured on a criminal course. He found out something about a state supported institution that he never knew before. The father was a grad­ uate some years ago of a small In­ diana College and in a broken voice admitted his mistake was in not send­ ing the boy to a small college where such doctrines as Socialism were not taught. While this is an extreme case, it only goes to prove that the average university today Is no place for the first year student. We have a painful sample of the university So­ cialist in various branches of our federal government, and the crop is being enlarged each year from the graduating classes of our univers­ ities. ■ senatorial race on the Democratic ticket, such a withdrawal is possible in the near future, The Roosevelt ad­ ministration has a candidate in Gong.

He also stated the committee had in­ terested the federal government in Washington and now guarantee of deposits and paid up stock was pos­ sible, under a plan of what has been built for bank depositors. Strange as it may seem, certain political inter­ ests in the state, have urged in Washington against making it pos­ sible for Ohio building and loans to reorganize under the federal law. These, same politicians also want the liquidating feature retained for pat­ ronage, while the Dayton Federation wanted a trustee that would not be appointed from political circles. The audience -applauded approval o f the federal plan that would permit guar­ antee of deposits. It is certain that with the next few months many of the building and loans in Ohio will apply to the federal government for reorganization, to escape tbe . rotten politics in Columbus. In answer to question from the floor speakers made it plain that under present conditions and handicap in state operation, no one could even guess when or how much, or whether anything would ever be paid out of the institutions in liquidation and it was for this reason new laws were demanded to make it possible for the stockholders to'take charge. plain language, Democratic laadsgf realize that with a fight within party ranks, many thing* that hav# happen­ ed under the White administration the past two years, will be washed out before the public, endangering success of the whole ticket. And the word scandal will have no place when charges begin to fly thick and fast. On with the fight and we hope the dirty work between the Schorrs and Pembertons on the Republican aide, and tbe Democratic administration, come to light. It will convince honest Republicans why the party has fail­ ed so many times in the past to elect Republican governors._____ _______ \ DON’T FORGET OUR OPENING SPRING LAMB SALE and FAT LAMB SHOW Next Monday) July 2nd Write or Phone for Entry Blanks for the Show Springfield Live Stock Sales Co.

Depositors-could not get their money unless borrowers paid not only interest but principle as well. It was recognized some could not pay but there was not much sympathy shown the class that could pay and did not. It was also shown that the eight institutions now closed by the state, located in Montgomery county, had thousands of properties that were entitled to and would get HOLC loans from the government. But it was also made plain that with each application it would take $35 of the depositor’s money to get such a loan through. One speaker stated that these fees would amount to $180,000. It was plain to be seen that those in attendance at the meeting were disgusted with liquidation and that the only salvation was to force legislation that would take the in­ stitutions out of the hands of the state politicians. Plans were made to have at least 800 Dayton citizens in ' Columbus each day the legislature* was in session to keep ari eye on what was going on. And then it is hardly! possible that a bare baker’s dozen' would be permitted in a committee room where the actual work on bills 1 is done.
