J.” , a regular contributor to the Western ; chines and all gambling devices must Star, Lebanon, to add a bit o f spice to a topic that has caused much public comment. It is more interesting to us in view ox, the fa c t that “ J, W , J.;” is known to Ohio newspaper interests as one o f the old-line conservative Democrats. . A thoughtful writer in one o f our American jmagazines has made some suggestions anent the proposal to moisten up the drouth states that should receive the immediate attention o f President Roosevelt and his brain-trust.. The niagazine writer offers the scheme o f making import'- ane changes in the earth's rotation. Giving our old earth a whirl in a reverse direction, might, he thinks, cause precipita­ tion t o reach the foothills o f the Rockies from the Atlantic sea-board. And, he adds, that the only objection to this part o f his plan and which might be urged by Californians, is, that I it might add somewhat to the “ unusual” climatic conditions ■' o f that always interesting state, Another alternative he mentions, is the leveling down o f the Rocky Mountains. These elevations and the winds from the Pacific, cause the moisture to fa ll on the western slopes and in this way, deprives the Mississippi Valley o f the rains to which it is entitled. He adds that the debris, consisting in part o f dirt and rocks, could be spread out over Texas, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and the Dakotas, to hold down th,e,| soil and keep it from blowing over into Massachusetts and Maine. Unfortunately the brain-trusters- in the working out o f this brilliant scheme o f improving upon-mature, overlooked the im­ possibility o f making young; trees grow on a thirsty soil a 100 miles wide and extending from New Mexico to Canada, un­ less they be artificially watered, from time to time, during the first two or three years o f starting to grow, if any, Another matter which has been overlooked by the gov­ ernment is that the belt must be fenced in with wire to keep out the coyotes and jack-rabbits. It is estimated that it will take some 20 . 0,000 miles o f wire and posts and this fence must be patroled and protected. Economy might be practiced, how­ ever, by having the same army o f job. holders who act as patrolment, do. the sprinkling. It is also suggested that while the farmers o f the drouth states mentioned, are waiting.some 25 to 30 years fo r this mighty belt o f timber to develop into a forest of sufficient in­ fluence to attract the rains, that water mains might be laid from either the Atlantic or Pacific and in this way the job 6 f water­ ing the trees and the farmers and their families, very much cheapened. • Moreover, he observes, that in leveling down the Rocky Mountains, the dirt and sand might be sifted by the unemploy- lion has placed Its blessing on the nomination of Sinclair, Socialist, who captured the Dempcrati?. honor over the regular Democratic nominee, George Creel, we may expeetthings to move more evenly along Socialistic lines, at least more Jn the open. We know the old line Democrat will have a hard time sponsoring the slogan o f “AM things equal with ajl^ men,” but that is the program o f the Socialist party.

S. Van Tassel (Copyrighted) Sen. Fess Says N R A Is N e a r D ea th More than four hundred sat down at the banquet table in Masonic Temple, Tuesday evening, when Greene County Republicans under Chairman Harry D. Smith, honored Sen. S. D. Fess, Clarence J, Brown and other nominees on the ticket. Following the dinner the crowd gathered at Shawnee Park, where it was augmented by Several hundred Republicans from the county and dis­ trict to hear Sen. Fess open his cam­ paign for re-election.. Previous to his Speech Clarence J. .Brbwn spoke for a few . minutes and other state and judicial candidates were introduced by Cong. Marshall. Chairman Harry D. Smith was chairman of this meeting, Sen. Fess laid. bare the Roosevelt program of Socialism and Commun-j ism and stripped the NRA and AAA of what little life yet existed.' He spared no language in showing how the former had proved a burden to small’ business interests and how con­ sumers were called upon to pay in­ creased cost of everything they, had to purchase. He said: “ The NRA is. dead. All that is left of it is a mem­ ory. »Mr. Roosevelt is worrying over the corpse and wondering how to bury it without making American business firms ashamed that they ever flew the Blue Eagle.” •' 1 In discussing the AAA Sen. Fess 1 said: “ A man is rewarded for what he j does not do instead of for what he does do,” a reactionary philosophy that will break any nation that prac­ tices-it.' In dealing with the cost of the program five states were named where the taxes collected ^amounted to only 57 million, Ohio paid over 93 million, exclusive o f the process­ ing taxes and has. received back hut, 34 million. As to the. processing tax Ohio contributed 50 per cent^-as much tax as ten Southern and Western states y * received only 1-17 o f one per cent of the amount. received by th^ ten states. In Texas two counties received more in the way of govern­ ment relief than the 88 counties in Ohio. ' To assume that Ohio farmers are benefiting in the end ' over this- pro­ gram is but insulting the intelligence of our people in the face of the facts. As to government relief for debtors the Senator pictured.the taxing of creditors to pay Some debtor: Public debt is mounting and private busi­ ness is decreasing with nothing ahead but national bankruptcy if the pro­ gram continues. It is the New Deal dealt from a stacked deck. 50 Out of 5 * Weeks du ring 1932 livestock prices in this v ic in ­ ity sold higher on M onday than any other day in the w eek .

At the eighth session of the Legislature, December 4, 1809 to February 22, .i810, the question of the temporary removal of the Capital from Chillicothe 'to some other point until a permanent location could be decided upon came up.- The rapid drift of the center of population northward, puulq it evident that Chil­ licothe was thq^far south for con- vehieiicq. •; A comThissioh'V'livas appointed to canvass the -situation and the legis­ lature on February 19, 1810, passed an act designating Zanesville as the Capital “ until otherwise provided by law.” On the following day, a second act was passed providing, for the ap­ pointment of a commission, .of five members to locate a permanent seat of government. The question was settled by the tenth general assembly of 1811-1812 in session at Zofiesville. Another war with Great Britain be­ came more apparent, and Ohio, to­ gether with,the other States, as well ns the National government, was fac­ ing the issue with a spirit of patriot­ ism, . The militia had been brought to a pronounced state o f efficiency and the Assembly enacted stronger J statutes against treason and waging war against the State, Treason was defined as "entering into a con­ spiracy for betraying the State of Ohio into' the hands or power of any I foreign enemies, or giving or attempt- j ing to send any evidence to any such , enemy for said purpose.” If foumj, guilty on the .evidence o f two wit­ nesses* the penalty . was death, A stirring set of resolutions passed by- the Assembly Honed wjth the follow- ' ing: “Resolved that if jwar should bo­ om* fate,‘'however, deplorable the evil/' when- called by oiir cpruntry, wo are ready to share in its calamities*, and trusting to the God of Battles, we do • pledge our lives apd fortunes to pre­ serve and maintain thetindependence so wenriy ’purchased by the heroes of Printing for Particular people There is much comment pro and con, over criticism o f a d - .have held out ngninst compulsory ministrative policies* whether such should be permitted or not. military training believing that such F o r some years oUr Democratic brethern. found plenty to pro- should he optional, or that male stu-, test about and now it is hard to sit back and hear the shafts Merits could be compelled to take it.'thc Revolution,” o f criticism agaihst thd Roosevelt policies.
