P°lls- ° j \ e V3 the result from a Democratic standpoint^ a repudiation of most o f the New Deal program, especially as it concerns agriculture interests. The scorV<l 18 the nomina tion of Vic Donahey for United States Senior following a cam­ paign where in he was charged with not lpinR m acc®r^ with the Roosevelt program. It is conceede hy all, irrespective of political affiliation, that all through Dohhey s public career, he has been no “Yes” man and accepted P dictation ol party leaders or so-called bosses. We have notalway8 aSroed with some of his theories but he must be giver credit for his inde­ pendence in thought and action, this bei£ the ground upon which the administration at Washington s;Uf?ht to oppose him by bringing out Congressman West as the P„° per cent support­ er of the New Deal. The Democratic recor< in Ohio, considered during the campaign as a pivotal state, is&H that is necessary to prove even the followers of that part] are not agreed on administration plans. Had the Democratsh®®n fully m Record with the brain-trust program they would h ve Riy®n West their full support on his campaign promise. G^T* v hite at no time was ever in the contest, even with his hu^PO.htical machine, Washington knew this and endeavored to him on the ticket in favor of West, but failed. The evidenc speaks for itself as written Tuesday— the New Deal shows s?ns ox decay. The Republicans of the nation can tap heart at the stand Ohio has taken and the tremendious vot! 8lven Clarence J. Brown for Governor and Senator S. D. Fess^er re-election. Like the result of the Democratic primary it mPt be conceded that Ohio Republicans do not look with muchtavor on what has been going on' in Washington. Senator Ft*3 position is clear- cut and the public could not have given M1 the support it did without having in mind endorsement of hii views on public af- f&irs* The vote given both Brown and Fessin^icates Ohio will give each such support next November as ° insure victory for the entire ticket. THERE IS SOME GLORY IN SOIv£ DEFEATS No political contest in recent years a8 drawn as much attention of the public and created moreinterest than when Raymond B. Howard, London publisher, pnounced as a can­ didate for what most people think is an oi!?e little worthwhile. True it carries no salary and no-expense ad'the only return is the saJisfaction of rendering a service to ydr Party, m this case the Republicans of the Seventh District. A condition has existed in this Distrft for several years that was gradually bringing the party tothe breaking point, regardless o f the fac t it is the largest noinal Republican dis­ trict in Ohio. But that is not 'all that was a stake. There were just enough Republicans who did not cari to see the office of committeeman prostituted for the gain an profit of others at the expense of not only decency but futur,J?00d of the party. You have the reason why Mr. Howard was candidate, not that he was seeking political honors for himself,His connection with the Ohio Republican Editorial Association faced him in a posi­ tion where he had- first hand informationof the damage the lobby element was doing not only to the Fpublican party but taking unjust advantage of the citizens of he state. ‘Mr. Howard entered the race unknowi to most of th e dis­ trict and with the concerted opposition of D the political pres­ sure that could be centralized against hin He made a hard campaign and enlisted the support of citizps m each commun­ ity and informed the people of the district0 a convincing way that brought him good support. His defdt m the district by 433, unofficial, is no disgrace, considering jnitical machine op­ position. It was an educational campaignaRainst the rule of a Columbus lobbyist in the district that wii he remembered in the future and: out o f this defeat Mr. Howl'd wins more glory than the election returns indicate. . The Herald has no desire to take any redit for what was accomplished in Greene county for Mr. Hoiard but we do wish to extend sincere thanks to the hundreds tftt gave heed to our appeal for support o f Mr. Howard, who ca>not be called upon for any apology of what he did or did ot do during the campaign. / Sen. Borah took a fling at NRA and price fixing but Gen. Johnson did not como back with his “Crack-down" club. NRA headquarters announced changes hut did not give out any more publicity than possible. Now it de- velopes that fifteen different lines of retail in towns under 2,500 have been released under the code requirements, except for child labor, hours and fair competition. Some of the lines re­ leased were: Groceries, foods, laundry, shoe repairing, drugs, hotels, restaur­ ants, bakeries, etc. NRA has its own newspaper published by the govern­ ment, every department sends out tons of free publicity each day, all a t the expense of the -government. Johnson cares nothing for the cost, neither does he care for the news­ papers. He failed in his censorship plans to throttle criticism of NRA blunders. The government still holds a tight line on the radio. for haircuts and 20c for shaves. Prices of al lother barber service is fixed. Hours a shop may remain open are fixed by the code and those that vio­ late the code will probably be sent to the prison farm at Londan. Bank robbers and stickup men are being given paroles to make room for bar -1 hers that violate the code. . BROWN-FESS HEAD REPUBLICAN TICKET, (Continued from owe 11 | COMMITTEE VOTE The result of the Seventh D istrict: the highest vote, James J.

H. Crabbe letter. It was Mr. Crabbe, chairman of the committee in Madison county, that named Mr, Howard two years ago a member of the Republican Exe­ cutive Committee,- yet he would re­ pudiate his own appointment. Madi­ son county electors evidently thought little of the Crabbe feeble, effort to misrepresent the situation and gave Howard a fine plurality of 1647. i I t is amusing to read statements of Sec. Wallace, on the AAA program. Tugwell has again taken a back seat and seems to be in seclusion. Agri­ cultural professors in western col­ leges are far from approving the AAA program. We find there is much de- vision among the professors but most of them predict nothing but clamity for farm interests on the present pro­ gram. They say the sop being hand­ ed out today .in the form of wheat, corn-hog benefits will have little ef­ fect on the pain that is to be suffer­ ed later.by farm interests. High prices for farm products, yes; but the farmer will not have money to pur­ chase high priced feed; nor will he have funds to purchase feeding stock. The professors say it will be another year before, there will he grain crops and two years or three before the live stock can be produced in any quant­ ity. With little to sell the farmer faces a high priced market with all that he must purchase. The Crabbe letter in Greene county evidently did much damage to Deaton from the fact that more than a score of persons, particularly women that had been interested in >prohibition, called to know if the author of the letter was the same Crabbe that turned from prohibition to repeal. When informed they were, brothers it was evident the name of Crabbe ,was no longer one that stood very high in public favor. Attention of Ithe public might also be called to. 'another incident of the campaign when Crabbe came out publically for ^emberton-Deaton. Madison couinty Republicans suggested that the Cen­ tral Committee be called and reor­ ganize the Executive Committee. To show the generosity of Mr. Howard and his desire to play fair, he serious­ ly objected to such a movement, and it was dropped. This will all be in his favor at some future date for the returns certainly provide certain proof that the Seventh District is 'to be cleaned of the stigma of being under control of an unscrupulous rail-, road lobbyist that resorts to any method to gain his point. HUEY LONG’S LOUSIANNAWAR Senator Huey Long, the laughing-stock^ the U. S. Senate, is staging ;a war of his own in h is state of bousianna, still the huge joke o f the nation. Huey has not l-eu able to control the city of New Orleans and has virtually occupied the Gov­ ernor’s chair, assuming all the power o f tl5 Executive, m try­ ing to force nearly a million citizens to io his will. State troops have taken over city property and im Senator remains in hiding to escape court injunction procedmgs. To the na­ tion-the whole affair is cheap comedy. Down in Washington, D. C., a militaV dictator assumes control of the nation's industry that rivalgthe feudal system. He would sacrifice profits for power and cofiscation of savings for the benefit of the spendthrift. The c ie f sponsor of the AAA brands opponents o f government ontrolled farming "cannibalism.” Whether it is Lousianna Washington the situation is serious, not comical. Give thidemagogue or the dictator power and independence and inilative can soon be crushed. Carroll-Bindtr Co.

With Commun­ ism a fact in Washington we now find federal funds are being used to rent college property to conduct a summer school for young girls out of employ­ ment. Oberlin College was taken over for a certain period for this work which has turned out to be a recruiting station for Communism. There have beau exciting times in the village and conduct of students and faculty has about driven decent citizens to revolt. The government employed professors . have been preaching socialism of the rankest kind. In a night parade was the fol­ lowing placard: "Christ Went to the hast Supper, Why Should We Be Left Gut?” Another jolt Oberlin received was when the "Star Spangled Banner" was reduced to Communistic terms. This is part of the New Deal we hear so much about. Uncle Sam's money being used to educate and influence yoilng girls in a way that all govern­ ment would be broken down. Com­ plaint has been made to Washington, but as yet nothing has been done about the Ohio situation. •A man stated the other day, “We are living in a peculiar age where for the first time in the history of a nation, founded by those who sought our shores that they might have re-* ligious freedom, we face a concerted j effort to break down not only the Golden Rule, but to defy some of the most important religious teachings.” We evidently are being told that precedents, religious as well as eco­ nomic count for little. The new j yardstick is that of the economist, i who p-en takes the measure of all Ithings in that way, not recognizing that the Creator of his own brain­ power is the Ruler of the Universe. A prominent braintruster is quoted as saying: "Prayer has lost its in­ fluence on men's lives." The rule of those in high places today is far from the Golden Rule. It is teaching the breaking of faith of one in another; the encouragement of broken pro­ mises,-and secure what you can from even those who have been your bene­ factors. Men once could boast that "tlieir word was as good as their bond," but such an endorsement can­ not be measured today by the New Deni yardstick. Now " It’s get what School Buses To Be Inspected Xenia, will be the central point for an inspection of seventy school buses and drivers in Greene County schedul­ ed for September 5 and 6 , beginning at 9 a. m. each day. Arrangements for . the inspection were made Thursday with H. C. Ault- man, county school superintendent, by a special representative of the state highway patrol. Jerry ICatherman, one-time Xenia Centra) High athletic coach, will likely be in change of the examina­ tion here in his capacity as a special investigator in Charge of the state of Ohio’s school bus situation. He will be assisted by Bob Shea, his first lieutenant, and by two uniformed highway patrolmen. Bus drivers will be given a physical examination under the direction of Dr. W. C. Marshall, Greene County health commissioner. They will be checked as. to height, weight, vision, speech, heart, blood pressure, physi­ cal deformities, if any, and other qualifications. Buses will be subjected to a thor­ ough test to determine mechanical de- fests, pupil capacity, weight, mark­ ings and general driving conditions for safety. . Blanks to be filled out are to be mailed to the bus drivers from Supt. Aultman’s office. These blanks are to be surrendered by the drivers on' the inspection dates. COMPROMISE APPROVED you can m anyway you can. The NRA’s baby sister, the ORA, conceived by Gov. White and his stool pigeons as n plan to milk the business interests of the state for the benefit of the politicians, now set the stakes to even take the "candy from the babies." For the past century or less it has been the rule for barber shop proprietors to have candy or chew­ ing gum on hand to quiet the kiddies if they get nervous during the opera­ tion of a hair cut. The New Deal as applied in Ohio makes the gift of candy to babies an offence, some­ thing more dangerous than if the barber should give the kiddies a shot of liquor, which is not prohibited, The code adopted is to govern 17,- 000 Ohio barber shops and in towns of 25,000 or more haircuts must be BOc and shaves 25e. In towns under 25,000 haircuts are to be forty cents A proposed compromise between the State Banking Department and Alta C. Jobe was approved by Judge R. L, Gowdy, after a hearing in Court, the objectors of record being The Cedarville Building & Loan, Cedar­ ville Village and Township Trustees, Board of Education, E tta Owens, Car­ rie Rife, Frank O. .Harbison, A. H. Creswell, J. B. Rife and William Rife. The Jobe liability totaled $9,700, in­ cluding a note of $5,400 and stock as­ sessment of $4,300. It was proposed that a federal loan be secured for $7,600, but of which Mrs. Jobe listed debts to be paid, $2,500 to lift a mort­ gage on the farm, and $1,000 to Del- mar C. Jobe. This would leave $ 3 ,- 660 to apply on the debt with resi­ dence property to be deeded to the j bank, as well as stock transfer of 70 : shares in .the Cedarville Land Co., a ’ company organized by the directors that borrowed $35,000 from the bank. The assets of the company so fa r as known are the former Hartman prop­ erty adjoining the School house and a 1 small parcel of land along the rail­ road of small value. The objectors set up the claim the compromise was not for thc best interest of the de­ positors. Two witnesses, Arthur WHdman and Harvey Bailey, testified thc Jobe farm was not worth to ex­ ceed $40 an acre, based oh the sale of other farms.

It mean? the average motorist in America paid last year in GASOLINE TAXES alone $51,29. Compare this with the average domes t i c El ec t r i c bill ($33.16); or the average natural Gas bill, including home heating ($39..29), or the average c igare t te tax to smokers ($21.90). You may not no­ tice or mind paying Gasoline of Cigarette taxes, because they arc divided over a period of time. YOUR GASOLINE TAX ALONE IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THE AVERAGE DOMESTIC ELECTRIC OR NATURAL OAS BILL EACH YEAR. The story told in the opposite col­ umn is significant —particularly the first paragraph— $13.30 out of every $100 collected in taxes in Ohio are paid by utilities. Every farmer, every business man, every public utility must be concerned in this constantly mounting tax burden, According to a committee of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, ONE-FIFTH OF OUR N A T I O N A L INCOME NOW is taken for taxes of some kind. Our Tax Bill in America is Greater than our Food Bill. The Dayton Power and Light Co.
