The endorsement Sought above all others was that of Sherman Deaton, of Urbana, against Raymond B. Howard, of London, both can­ didates for state central committeemen in the seventh Ohio Deaton has had five terms and is the candidate of D. C. Pemberton, Columbus lobbyist, who is credited with practically owning the Republican organization machinery in several counties. Pemberton has been able to “deliver" the seventh district in any way he sees fit for too long. Control of can­ didates and party organization by a paid lobbyist is a disgrace, to say nothing of its detrimental effect on the Republican party of the district. ; When this man Howard decided to seek the place., he was told in no uncertain terms that he was not acceptable to Pem­ berton. That’s all the more reason why he should be given a hundred percent vote. Anyone who isn't acceptable to Pem­ berton must have a lot of good in him. Howard says he stands squarely against “inside control^ and is opposed to the commercialized politics that has been played by Pemberton. Knowing the man personally (and we're not prejudiced either for or against him because he hap­ pens to be a member of our noble profession, we’ll stake our reputation that Howard will insist on having everything open and above board. The job pays no salary, but the State Central Committee handles the affairs of party organization and maps out policies and plans. Those policies and plans determine whether or not the party goes to the people with “clean hands,” Howard is the man to strip off the Pemberton tentacles which have held seventh district Republicanism all these years. .—South Charleston Sentinel, ;tax experience.

County lines can be wiped out in any manner that suits the pleasure of the city political bosses. The pre-campaign pledge for the constitu­ tional change was prefaced with the idea that we would have more economy in county government and thus give tax payers more relief. It is true certain offices can be abolished as elective, but the power of appointment is more certain under the new plan. In this way the electors will not be able to have a say directly as to who should serve them in a public capacity. The rural electors, or at least few of them, never gave the problem, of self control much consideration. If counties are united in the name of economy they will be so placed that the large city dominated counties will dictate to the rural sections, who will be helpless. Supporters of prohibition will find no •comfort in the new movement for selection of state senators and representatives dre to come from the city districts on the basis of population. With this lineup prohibition in Ohio may be more distant than it was fifty years ago. A meeting is soon to be held to organize the state in behalf of the new .plan. In the list we find the name of a prominent officer of the State Grange as well as a high up officer in the Farm Bureau. All we have to say is “Keep your eye on any change proposed to abolish county*lines-” If you do not you may get the opportunity of helping pay some of the million bonded debt of a city in some nearby county. Under the new constitution a city can extend its corporate lines to include as much of. the counfy as it desires. OHIO ELECTORS URGE BROWN'S NOMINATION The announcement appears this week that Clarence J. Brown, former Secretary of State, is to be a candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor of this state. This should be welcome news to thousands of Republicans who have tired and become disgusted with the kind of government the state has had the past two years. Mr. Brown sought the nomination for this high office two years ago and carried most of the counties in the state. He was opposed by the big city bosses and there has never been any doubt but what he was counted out in Cuyahoga county. He lost at that time to a citizen of that county, mainly because the county boss, who is dean of the lobby element in Ohio, was not satisfied nor would he take a chance on Mr, Brown being the next governor. Two years ago Mr. Brown sought the office, having served with honor to himself and distinction to the state, as Secretary of State. It was his duty to supervise elections and see that election laws were observed. It was also an unfortunate ex­ perience that he was compelled to remove all the members of the election board in Cuyahoga county, that recognized no superior other than the Rpublican boss in that county. This naturally angered the boss, who took vengence and another chance in enforcing gang methods in defeating Mr. Brown. Mr. Brown has been reluctant to announce this year but he has heeded the urge from his thousands of friends and is again to be a candidate in a field of numerous candidates. FYiends in most every county have volunteered to circulate his petitions. Several of the counties that did not endorse him two years ago see no hope for Republican victory this fall unless Mr. Brown is nominated. The Herald has no interest in the Brown campaign other than we have utmost faith that should he get the nomination and election he will serve the state with the same devotion and unselfish purpose which marked his two terms as Secretary of State. Mr. Brown comes from Blanchester in Clinton county. His support two years ago was almost unanimous from the rural counties which we believe will be even more loyal this year. With issues facing the state for settlement the rural element will have an honest and conscentious executive in Mr. Brown that will be fair to all sections of Ohio, rural and urban. According to The Xenia Herald some Cedarville Democrat must not take kindly to the way political patronage is being handled in this 2 county, Appointments are to be made soon for postmasters in Yellow Springs and Jamestown, Examina­ tions have been held but so far as we know no grades have been given the public. The Cedarville Democrat must be paving the way for ihe open­ ing here some months in the future when there will be a vacancy. As we scan the correspondent’s idea there is much friction among the faithful, for' non-activity on the part of the executive committee. The idea of the article is to uncover who is dictating the patronage appointments for the county; on the other hand reading be­ tween the lines there is criticism be­ cause there are no appointments be­ ing made. We know nothing about how civil service examinations are being held. It has been our experi­ ence that few if any of them have ever been on the square, and this in­ cludes Republican as well as Demo­ cratic control. Civil service is much like some of the New Deal program, looks good on paper, but is not prac­ tical because it is controlled for sel­ fish purposes.

That should be interesting news, if true, which few -believe is likely. First place Pemberton might just fis well give up lobbying if he gives up political activity. His con­ trol over state senators and repre­ sentatives is almost required to make lobbying a success and still draw thou­ sands 'of dollars yearly as salary from the railroads he represents. The re­ sponse the newspapers of the Seventh District are giving Raymond B. Howard, London publisher, who iB op­ posing the Pemberton candidate for district'committeeman, Sherman Dea­ ton, means that much discomfort to the political dictator in the district. As the campaign progresses, the high­ er the lid is tp be lifted, and this may be the grounds for the Columbus re­ port that Pemberton is retiring from politics. He is not to be given chance to voluntary retire. Some of these days a decree will be handed down from the Republican voters that will give him retirement. There will be few of the newspapers in the dis fcrict that will stand for dictation from Pemberton or any of his stool pigeons. Ohio continues to take on more buildings for office space to accomo­ date the political, appointees Gov. White places on the pay roll. A few days ago the state rented the Pure Oil Building on High street, Co­ lumbus, not having room enough in state owned buildings. The people were promised the new state office building that cost six million dollars would serve the purpose for years to come and now it is filled to overflow­ ing, There is no more desk space in the Capitol, the ten story Wyandotte building purchased some years ago, the old Hartman Hotel building, own­ ed or under lease by the state. The brain trust can sit in an office in Washington and dream as to the passible outcome of any plan that might be proposed whether *it is to control industry or. agriculture. Those that believe we can forget our troubles by adopting the Tugwell “Wine,.Women and Song” platform, of course could take no consideration of what the rain-maker might do or not do towards making crops possible; One of the leading state papers that espouses any plan the New Dealers pi'opose makes light of the fact that there might be an unseen hand in the present agricultural situation'. The trouble with the 'brain-trusters is tliere is no argument that woulld be convincing that a Supreme power guides all our activities in ways we know not of. The brain trust has al­ ready convinced itself tha t a monkey gland can def for a man what it was intended to do for a monkey but the average citizen is convinced the self styled 'brain-truster is not yet up to the average monkey when it comes to sound and sensible reasoning. Now that the Supreme Court of the United States has affirmed the sen­ tence of five years given McClain Cat- terlin, 58, Brazil, Ind., “ancient estates” promoter, Prosecutor Marcus McCallister, who conducted the prose­ cution against strong legal talent for the defense, gets a hand. Catterlin was charged with selling unregistered membership, in violation, of the Ohio law. In addition to the five years sentence Catterlin was also fined $2,- 000 by Judge Gowdy. Twenty-five or thirty years ago effort was made to revive the famous Harper estate case which at that time was reported as mythical The older we get and the wiser we think we are the more apt some people are to buy into the some­ thing for nothing class. There are probably a few people that yet have faith in their investment. I t was the legality of proceedure and Prosecutor McCallister gets credit for laying the groundwork that met approvel of the highest court We have had -fix months of guar­ anteed bank deposits after hundreds of failures with banks. . In that time but two banks in the country under the new guarantee plan have failed and one of these is operating -under restriction. The other is being liqui­ dated. It is said that 56 million people bow. have their deposits in banks in­ sured. With insurance for building and loans as proposed in Congress there would be .not only more secur­ ity, as with banks, but people! would be better satisfied. The government in providing loans on .farms and homes has done much to strengthen all such savings institutions but not enough to make them liquid as they once were. This will come only when there is prompt payment of interest and pay­ ments on loans. The mortgage moritorium riot only injured building and loans but closed banks as well. For this reason the government should now provide the guarantee as with banks. LEGAL NOTICE STATE LAWS CANNOT PREVENT CONVERTING A timely legal opinion has been handed down by Horace Russell, general counsel for the Federal Home Loan bank, who holds that regardless of state laws, any building group wish­ ing to change from State to Federal charter can do s when 51 per cent of the share-holders vote for conversion. For weeks and months those interested in building and loans have been hearing about the necessity of special laws in Ohio to permit such institutions adopting the federal plan. You have the answer in the above ruling, yet Gov. White's political wreckers for pap purposes will contend differently. Not so long ago we raised the same-question with an important Xenia attorney on the ground that federal laws superceed state laws, and why was it the state had to give consent? His answer was much the same as given in the federal ruling. It is very likely that in the near future most of the build­ ing and loans in Ohio will adopt the federal plan to get away from the constant political dickering that has kept things in an uproar. The state politicians will likely oppose such a move fearing the loss of so many jobs, the outstanding accomplish­ ment of the White administration. Good merchandising has really become one of the fine arts, Wilkini , / The low level to which the motion picture industry lias degenerated may yet displace what danger the saloon once spread over the nation, Gov. White months ago adopted the brain-trust idea of government for Ohio. While the governor galavants over the country by airplane and motor serving the state by,proxy, a thing he promised the people would not exist if he was governor, the state is operated through many depart­ ments by university nuts, boodle poli­ ticians, bankers that could not suc­ cessfully operate their banks, jazz songsters from night clubs and avia­ tors. The state tax commission is composed of all. varieties of business failures that is possible to put under one branch of government. The gov­ ernor wanted more information on the tax situation m Ohio and a new de­ partment was created for that pur­ pose. An inspection of the appointees should make th e average Democrat red-headed and the rank Communist want to return to Russia, On this board the Governor has named a jazz night club singer, who can sing his praises to the scarlet sisters that dls- t>lay their wares to the nocturnal bleary-eyed frequenters of the booze joints. An aviator without business or even tax experience also sits Jn this conference. Another is a travel­ ing salesman that was out of a job who never had ovpericnce in oven handling affairs in the smallest muni­ cipality. For fear someone might kidnap the Governor or some of the Tax Commission the Chief Executive names a former house detective from a Columbus hotel to study tax measures.
