FRIDAY, JANUARY 10, 1936 NEW DEAL PLANS FAIL TO STAND TEST The whole country applauded the Supreme Court decision last May that brought death to the NRA, except several thousand political appointees that were profiting in the way of salary. It was following this decision that Franklin Roosevelt attacked the decision as of ‘ 'the horse and buggy days." Monday, the Supreme Court rendered a decision that makes illegal collection o f processing taxes, In as much as agriculture profited by this tax in the way of crop reduction payments, the decision was equally as important as that on the NRA. At the moment the Roosevelt budget requirements by message were being read in Congress, the AAA decision, automatically made that message worth less than a scrap of paper. The re­ action of the AAA decision will not be known for some days,, depending largely on which way market prices travel. Opinion between farmers on the AAA plan was divided, irrespective of political alignment. There were probably more farmers that had not signed contracts than those who did, yet those favoring represented a large per cent of the crops produced each year. What the outcome of the decision will be is unknown at this time. Farmers who were under contract will likely be paid up until Monday, yet this is more or less subject to legal pro­ cedure of finding a way first to. finance payments, and second, as to whether even congress can vote payment on what the court holds as illegal contracts. There has always be’en a question as to the legality of such contracts and the administration has recognized that fact, due to the insistence of passage of much New Deal legislation by Roosevelt, whether constitutional or not. Another recognition o f the weakness of the position was that the administration had suppliment.bills prepared ready to be passed by congress If the highest court did not approve what had been done. The de­ cision was so sweeping and wide in its meaning that the ad- ' ministration so far hesitates to Ask congress for action until other plans can be worked out. It was without doubt the intention.of.congress to .do some­ thing to aid agriculture. The weakness of the administration has been in having the agriculture department under the con­ trol of radical leaders, many of whom had little or no experi­ ence, others that had been failures in their own business. Men of sound judgment were soon driven from the circle of advisors, only one remained that merited favorable mention; Chester Davis. Many have labored under the belief that the AAA plan was a tariff to the farmer as manufacturers have been protected from foreign made goods. We have in the past had tariff on all farm products but the trouble has been that we have lost, our foreign markets. An effort has also been made to delude farmers on the belief that importations of farm products from Canada under the recent Roosevelt trade agreement to get foreign made liquor, could not be injurious. Nothing could be farther from the truth. When a nation cannot consume all that it produces how can imported farm products lend aid? Roosevelt has traded off the American farmer for imported iiqudr—a statement that cannot be denied. 1 Another weakness.of the New Deal is that it has planned not for the future but from day to day, trusting to luck" that, nothing would arise to upset political control. Class hatred has been used to. keep people divided arid l i r a disturbed mental condition and- we have to only refer to the Roosevelt radio message o f Iasi Friday. His oft repeated statement, “ Just as I have planned it,” certainly has no place following the action of the highest court, Monday. The court also gave “ the status o f the nation”—not socialism but constitutional government under which either a Republican or Democratic administration can pilot the Republic. \ Not only the AAA is wiped out but the TVA, McGuffey coal act, railroad pension plan, social security laws.and.other, communistic legislation has been pushed to a danger point by the Supreme Court, all of which must stand the test later. The* Boyland Trial The first shipment of 81 cars of fat cattle from Canada under the new Roosevelt trade pact o f admitting farm products from that country to get Canadian, Scotch and Irish liquor, arrived in St, Paul, Minn,, Saturday. Part of the shipment went on to the Chicago market. This is part of the New Deal to aid the American farmer. By FRED F. MARSHALL I haveTbsevved in all my lifetime , , .

Hopkins is jb bad in practically every state in the union, even south­ ern senators after Nth. Tugwell made a California speech that placed Roose­ velt deep in the hole in the for west. Reaction to Wallace following the American Farm Bureau Federation meeting last month in Chicago caused Democratic leaders to develop a case of the jitters. There iB now silence in that quarter. No braintruster is now permitted to make public state­ ments. The New Dealers must be reading the weekly (reports of the Literary Digest poll which shows in­ creased opposition to the administra­ tion. Even two of the southern states show increased •percentage of opposition. Eastern, midwest and western states register as iiigh as 62 per cent against the southern states. NEW DEAL CHORUS OF CONTEMPT FOR AMERICA And now comes Harold Ickes, Secretary of the Interior, with this notice to Republicans and others who insist that the Administration return to constitutional ways and not act as if an emergency lasted forever: “ I warn them that they are putting a match to a keg of powder when they insist on return­ ing to the old order”—-this from an official who has been hold­ ing a lighted match so near a barrel of oil as to make the whole world nervous. Though the Administration is the most vocal in our history, and has gone to unprecedented lengths in flooding the land with printed propaganda* it is poorly served by its own spokesmen. Its chief is a graceful public speaker with a very good radio voice. Rut his addresses cancel each other by the diametrically opposite views which they express, and no longer carry con-' viction; people have a right to expect that whoever urges his views upon them shall, himself take them seriously, As to his lieutenants, what Roper, Secretary of Commerce, says by way o f assurance‘ is countervailed by a confused chorus uttering things alien to the American ear. * Harry Hopkins, declaring that “ this is a fight between those who have not and those who have, and we are with those who have not” ; Rexford Tugwell,'seeking to inflame an audi­ ence “ so that your wrath may sustain a genuine reconstruction (regimentation?) of American life” ; Aubrey Williams, urging teachers to tell their pupils that “ the cards are stacked against them” ; Ickes, talking about matches and powder kegs—when in American history have responsible officers of government .talked so loosely, so wildly, so remote from the realities? These things sound no better to Democrats than to any* body else. Things are as far from the spirit of the Democratic platform of 1932 as from the Republican platform. They come from men unknown then and without any background of Demo­ cratic tradition, but who somehow have thrust themselves for­ ward as mouthpieces of Administration policy. Their contempt for the nation’s history, traditions and institutions is Asiatic rather tlijm American. We are afraid that the President him­ self launched this curious chorus when on a certain day last Mav he took an hour and a half to tell the newspaper cor* " “ "T - - respondent.- that the Constitution and the Supreme Court h e -!,fd“ ‘ to “ * “ s* ,1"> E“ “', longed to the “ horse-and-buggy age,”—Cincinnati Times Star. e consume • Ohio has 20,300 farmers that can­ not " get- their" checks as refunds“-6n gasoline from the State Tax Com­ mission. These checks total $178,381 and are being held up on the claim, the department has no postage to mail them. Fourteen thousand checks were ready to be mailed in. December.' Of course all the blame is placed on Gov. Davey and his famous veto.! We might venture a statement that no employee of the Tax Commission has yet had to wait on his salary. The Tax Com­ mission is the biggest salary eating bureau in the state. Reports on col­ lection o f the sales tax show thnt it .lakes seven cents out of every dollar to collect the three per cent tax. West Virginia has more money for its schools than it .kftows what to do with. In that- state the tax is two pennies on each dollar. No compli­ cated bookkeeping. No sales tax stamps. No horde of political ap­ pointees traveling the state .burning state gasoline to question the honesty of the merchants of the state- J In Ohio each merchant, and now farm­ ers must take out licenses, are re­ garded under the sales tax law, dis­ honest until they can prove other­ wise. Kentucky has a .new governor elected on a platform to repeal the sales tax in that state. He has been in office more than week and already has removed more than 500 office,hold­ ers.

We might not be far. from seeing the time when a governor in Ohio will be elected on a platform of repeal of the sales tdS. Local merchants . and those who hire labor, other than on farms or for domestic purposes, should ac- acquaint themselves with the new social security legislation that became effective'the first of this year. Like the sales tax that was adopted last year business men were solocited to purchase all kinds of supplies. We have been informed from govern­ mental authority that no definite forms have yet been approved' by the government. Uftdcr this new legisla­ tion everyone will be compelled to keep accurate records and some proof of payment a^id the amount. For your own protection no labor should be paid by any method other than bank chock. OneMiranch of the law prorides for firms or individuals that employ eight or more persons. Another, one or more, No govern­ ment regulation have been issued, In addition Ohio is expected to pass similar legislation which will no douht complicate matters for a time and you will be compelled to have a system that will meet not only federal gov­ ernment requirements hut state as well. All of this extra cost that is forced on business from manufactur­ er to retailer will of necessity be COMMUNISM PUTS HEEL ON ALL RELIGION You do not have to pro far to get the measure of the Roose­ velt administration as to its religious ideals, if it has any. With the administration loaded with foreign-born brain-trusters of Communistic belief it was no wonder the government would hot ; 'permit the erection of any church at Norris, Tenn., where the . Russian experiment of governmental electrical power is to be tried out. Of course an administration that has sponsored woman dancers in nude at CCC camps would not have much use for anv brand of a church. We are now living under a dictatorship that says in free America that no denomination has a right to erect a church only where and by whom and with the consent of the dictator-—one of the tenents of Communism that has no use for any church, The administration attitude at Norris is “ Roosevelt regimentation of Churches,” Protestant, Catholic and Jewish. ; Under the New Deal social security laws the employer still will, be permitted to watch the, wheels go round but there is yet hope that the Supreme Court will stand by the Constitution. , RAW Fisr* BEEF HIDES HIGHEST PRICES PAID Dealer Lots Bought B E N N IE S P A R R O W i Elm St. Cedarville, O.
