It is that spirit which in- jevcn to the gold back certificates. You tare , eHip at 20c on foot But watch archie domination and established a nation where the govern ment was to exist for the- individual, not the individual for the government. , . . Today, the American spirit stands for these things precise­ ly as it did in the past. They are as important today as ever, and perhaps more important. The public is beleaguered from many sides by those who would effect sudden and irrevocable change in the very foundation stones of our government. The advocates of fascism, communism, dictatorship and other theories are always active—and there is danger that they may seem persuasive to a people struggling with great, yet tem­ porary, problems, . ■ . , , . The public cannot be too strongly warned against seeking temporary benefits at the expense of permanent principles. Even the worst of depressions pass—-and we will be a sad nation indeed, if after this one passes, we find that we have lost those constitutional guarantees of corporate and individual freedom that have made us great, THE TOWN BULLY Who pays your wages or salary? Business and industry. Who pays the politicians and office holders? Business and industry. ■ „ _ . Who pays the doles now handed out by government? Busi­ ness and industry. Who improves property that pays taxes? Business and industry. Where does permanent employment for the masses come from? Business and industry. Who is injured by government going into business? ...Busi­ ness, and industry. Who suffers most from such a program? Millions of wage earners and investors. ,• What will replace the tajtes destroyed by tax-exempt gov­ ernment business competition* with private citizens? Higher taxes on remaining private'property. What is the difference between the town bully and the politician who uses the force of government to take what he wants from helpless private citizens? None. / The people make the government. The people make the politicians. Industry and business create incomes, and property which politicians tax. I f the politicians destroy private business, where will they get taxes?. Wh^re will people get jobs? Can we all get jobs with the government? No. If politicians can’t get taxes, then what happens? Govern­ ment is bankrupt. Will business and employment increase under a town bully policy? It is our business,, our jobs and' our taxes that are at stake. Private business cannot compete with tax-exempt govern­ ment business. Try it if you think it can. ' What is the answer? Keep government out of business and confine it to the function of governing a free people, for which it was established, • What has government in business done fo r other nations of the world? Bankrupted them in most cases and made tax slaves out o f the people. a new set of dishes, selected by Mrs. Roosevelt, It numbers 1,000 pieces, has rich blue border with 48 pure gold stars burned on the flat pieces. When silver inflationists from Con* gross and New Deal circles sit down to face the spread of gold, the turkey may not taste so good. The next governor of New Mexico comes from our neighboring county seat,' London. He is Clyde Kendle Tingley and was born on a" farm five miles north of London. ’ When 22 years of age he took out for the west. Today, at 44, he is the governor- elect, having been elected by a major­ ity of 8,000, He had the honor of having Douglass Fairbanks and Mary Pickford campaign for him. Mrs. Bell Tingley, mother of th<£ governor- elect resides in Springfield. His wife was Miss Carrie Reid, and is also an Ohioan, her home being at Bowling Green. The adoption of a sales tax con­ tinues to be a big topic wherever one, two or three congregate.' Inasmuch as it covers all the necessities of life, economic doctors are busy trying to figure out just what it will cost each family in the state in the course of a year. The dairy interests tried hard to have milk exempted but failed, so each bottle of milk selling at nine cents or more must carry the tax. It was pointed out'that the tax would reduce the consumption o f milk and opponents wanted the tax absorbed, by the distributors. Here was a new stumbling block. City distributors operate under the New Deal with code restrictions and distribution costs fixed. The next suggestion was that Gov. White's milk trust commission would hav/C" to order the base price paid dairymen reduced to cover the tax. And this is probably what will happen shortly after the bill becomes a law. The biggest money maker the federal government has is the hog processing tax) It is collected twice, first by lower prices on hogs and a- gain when the consumer orders his pork chops. It is a wonderful age we live in. President Roosevelt in a speech some days ago called Ameri­ cans “pioneers of 1934." He is also credited with the statement, “We are on our way”—in or out—of the wild­ erness stripped bare by the tax col­ lectors. The cities cry about sales and income taxes—they also vote the New Deal. No Sympathy here. lumbus,. 22 to 31c.

Today, Thursday, Thanksgiving jonce a week on the same subject, Carlisle, offers his personal sugges­ tion as a remedy. At least half pf the houses in the U. S. are from 35 to 40 years old and out o f date and most o f them4 covered' by insurance he suggests that the nation be divided into fire zones and insurance agents be designated to select which houses are to be burned, Do this over a five year period, Insurance companies to pay the loss and congress to appropriate two and one half billion dollars to repay the insurance companies, New policies would be written on modern property not subject to’ fire risk. Special taxes to be levied over a long time for future posterity to pay as it will in the end get to live in the property. Change the arson* clause in insur­ ance policies as was done with the gold clause in bonds. Legalize arson to aid unemployment.

Government cannot create wealth. It can only spend it. That economic axiom was recently pointed out by B. C. Forbes, in c nmenting on the delusion that government has a limitless purse, that it can pull bundles of cash out of a magic hat, that “ a day of reckoning never comes.” Every cent spent by political organisms must be supplied by the taxpayer. And that term, “ taxpayer,” means every person in the country Who has a job, any savings, a piece of property, a business, or a dollar to spend. It means the day laborer as well as the bank president—-the jclerk as well as the executive. In fact, the clerk and the day laborer have the most to lose from tax extravagance and the most to gain from tax economy.

A year ago the Roosevelt administration was trying to hang the Fords up by the heels and shooting both father and son with ridicule because the motor magnets refused to join the NRA movement. The government even went so far as to forbid the company or agents bid­ ding to supply motor cars or trucks. If report of car sales are a criterion the black list failed to Work for evi­ dently public sentiment hacked Ford, who has taken the lead in record of sales in recent months. The Roosevelt administration evidently is trying to court the favor o f the Ford family and heal over what e$er soreness ‘ that might 'exist. A day or so later the Ford company announced it had' no intention o f adopting the. NRA. We are in'receipt of a report from the O.S.U. bureau of business re­ search which shows the average daily sales o f groceries from wholesalers in Ohio was 11.7 per cent under the previous month. The index shows the price increase for the month was .3 per cent, the sixth consecutive month they have advanced. the interest and response of liberal contributions as in the past —Not with Santa Claus a reality.

Church circles in Washington, D. C., have started a bombardment of mem­ bers of congress over the wave of crime and murders committed within the past year in that city. Never, church leaders say, has viciousness and criminality been so rampant in the history of the city as since the lid was lifted by the New Deal Con­ gress. Appeal has even been’ made to the Supreme Court, The national administration is always responsible for the government of the Capital City, and the charge js "made-thnf, orders were given months ago to take the lid off.

We employed, in as much as President are on the way with the New Deal, Roosevelt changes hi* mind about If surface ' indication's amount to anything there are breakers ahead for the tax program now under consid­ eration by the legislature. Difference has arisen between Gov. White and Gov.-elect Davey over the division of the tax among the various districts. The former wants a division written in the bill. The latter wants the tax collected and held for distribution under his administration. A battle rages between municipalities, counties and schools over‘the percentage pro' posed fo r distribution. It may be the opponents of income tax will be able to wreck the whole program, especial ly in the senate, We are eventually going to get a consumer’s sales tax law, regardless of any contest that has arisen, if not under this adminis­ tration, we will the next. It would please Davey to have the legislation passed before he assumes charge in January. Goal consumers are now getting an earful o f how coal dealers have been victimized by the NRA racket. Heavy assessments were levied on dealers and a budget of $140,400 has been spent so far this year. Kline L. Roberts, Columbus, drawing a fat salary o f $10,000 a year and expenses, is chairman of the code committee. A long-list of other officials is named as drawing big salaries. Complaints in Washington after waiting for months are now being heard by gov­ ernment authorities.
