They arouse associations. They start the wheels o f memory, Pretty soon the facts regard-, ing Mr. Wallace himself come into focus. Corn Wallace was the fellow who, as secretary of agri­ culture, devised and later put into operation the law which brought substantial profits to Com Wallace the seed merchant. (This is, o f course, not quite accurate! when Mr. Wallace as­ sumed office he turned over his interest in the seed business to his wife.) Enforced reduction of acreage encouraged — one might almost say forced—the farmers of the corn belt to seek other means of raising a plentiful crop. Mr. Wallace's com­ pany advertised the advantages of his seed corn in this particular: The fanner was told he could sign up with Mr. Wallace’s AAA, reduce his acreage, and- still grow about as much as he ever did. Thus he would get Mr. Wallace’s benefit payments for crop reduction without actually reducing his crop. All he would have to do to enjoy these, advantages was to pay the fancy premium charged for Mr. Wallace’s hybrid seed. It was a good thing while it lasted, so good a thing indeed that an agent of Mr. Wallace’s company not long ago set out for South America to grow more high yielding seed. Under Mr. Wallace's crop reducing regime the imports into this country of Argentine corn have been increasing rapidly. It appears that the Supreme court’s action may have injured both the domestic and foreign branches of the Wallace business. Mr. Wallace’s irration at the recent decision may be ex­ plained in part by these circumstances^ A further explanation niay lie in his own sense o f responsibility for what has hap­ pened. He pened. He speaks, of the decision as a legalized steal,” but passes over the plain fact that all the taxes imposed under his AAA law were an illegalized steal.^The government took close to a billion dollars o f this swag before its robbery of the housewives was stopped. He also forgets conveniently that the men who drafted the AAA bill under his direction had grave doubts o f itsjconstitu­ tionality.. They hoped it would get by, but they ffmst have foreseen the confusion which the invalidation of the law would bring: about. Now that their fears have been realized Mr. Wal­ lace'blames the court. He should blame himself, 5To, any one who has thought about the matter it is evident that the problem o f the impounded taxes was an insoluble one. Ik vs not possible to refund the processing taxes to the men and women who in reality paid them because no one can be certain - who the alternate taxpayers were and there is no record to show bow much each o f them paid. . One the other hand, the court could not give the money to the treasury, because it had just found that the treasury had no right to i t I f the treasury had been permitted to keep the impounded sum the precedent would have served as an en­ couragement to congress to levy other taxes which it knew to be illegal. It is, o f course, quite true that in most instances the cotton processors, the packers, the millers, and the rest had passed the tax along to their customers. The court was thus Obliged to choose between injustices and chose the lesser one. I f some kind of retroactive levy is not enacted, and if the processors are permitted to have the money, there is some chance that their wholesale customers pan get refunds and the retail customers in turn obtain refunds until the5ultimate tax­ payers are reached. In any event, to turn the money over to the treasury, would have been a far graver affront to good law, good government, and good morals than the lesser evil, which the court was forced to choose,—Chicago Tribune.

DB IT ORDAINED BY THK COUNCIL OF THE VILLAGE OF CEDAKVILLE, STATE OP OHIO: SECTION I. That for a period of fire years , . ,, fr<?m tUe *th day of February, 1930, th** prise feund m tile following quotations ( which may be charged j>y Th ' from the Senator! . he Dayton Power and Eight Company for electric light furnished to t lo 'Village of Cedarrllle to light the streets, lance, alloys, avenue* and public places therof. “ The New Deal,” said Senator Glass lu the manner and by the means set forth in in a newspaper interview published April 8, 1934, “taken all in all, is not only a mistake; it is a disgrace to the nation; and the time ’ is not far distant when we shall be ashamed of having wandered so far from the dictates of conurtoh sense and common honesty.” Speaking o f the New Deal itself coupled with the actions of the New Deal Congress, he added; “ If there weren't so many people depend* ent on me, and by that I do not mean my family, I would rather have died than live to see the disgrace o f this era.” On another occasion, Senator Glass sqid: “ Perhaps it would be better to drop the expression, 'brain trust,’ -and substitute a-word more apt, more ac­ curately describing a bunch o f super­ cilious men and women, looking with scorn on all who have notions of con­ stitutional democracy and liberty of choice, seeking the millennium over­ night by use of nostrums and arrogat­ ing to themselves all the intelligence there is." On another occasion, Mr. Glass, speaking about triple A, said: “There is no human*being who has ever been created ‘by God upon whom I would confer the authority and the power that this bill undertakes to confer upon the Secretary of Agriculture.” Again, speaking o f NRA, and defend­ ing small businesses against the Blue’hour* per year. the plans and specifications therefor on file with the Clerk of said Village, and as |*ri>vlded in this ordinance, shall be as follows; . 190 C. P. LAMPS 13 or I cm .all at 139.60 per lamp. 1C to SO all at 327.00 par lamp. 3i to oo all at 323.99 per lamp, Excess over 60 at 324.1)0 per lamp, 250 C. P. LAMPS 15 or Ieaa all at 343.60-per lamp. 16 to 26 all at 340.00 per lamp. Excess ..over 25 at 328.00 per lamp. and aetd Company shall, at Ha own expense, furnish aald Jampa and. equipment and ma> terlal necessary for astd lighting, and erect and maintain game and'shall supply said lamps wlih neceawry electric; current, and the Com­ pany |s to be paid by said Village for said lighting in twelve (12) equal monthly install- moats, on or before the tenth •day of each calendar month, subject, however, to the de­ ductions provided for In said specifications for outages, and the Company screes that any additional lamps of tho character aforesaid for the street lighting ordered by said Council, shall be erected and operated by It at tbo same1price per lamp as that above- named, the same to be paid by aald Village in the same manner and Installments, and at the times hereinbefore provided for said pay­ ments. SECTION 2, That the minimum number of lamps of the various candlepower to be used for the lighting of said streets, lanes,' alleys; avenues and public places furnished, shall be as follows: 52—100 C. P. Lamps. , J-^250 C, I*. Lamps ' said Iamrs to be located as shall be directed by the Lighting Commltteo of the Council of said Village. SECTION 8. That said electric light shall be furnished by means of aerial construction only. SECTION 4. That said lighting shall be according to What la known as tho "ALL NIGHT AND EVERY NIGHT SCHEDULE": that Is, the tamps shall be illuminated every night from one-half hour after sunset of one day to one- hair hour before sunrise of the next,day, In. accordance wttb which schedule. k ch lamp' shall be illuminated for approximately 3940 TW ELVE ROOSEVELT “ LITTLE CAPITALS” The New Deal plan to set up ten or twelve regional “ capitals” to administer national affairs is a product- of the brain trust'advanced as another means of adding a few more thousand Democrats to the national pay rolL The reason as­ signed is that we now have 108 different arrangements of dis­ tricting the country"By various government departments and agencies to collect federal taxes and supervise other depart­ ments. More than seventy-five o f these agencies have been created by Roosqvelt in three years. Only one. other nation has such a plan and that is Russia now under control of Com­ munists. Such a plan is for the purpose of taking over much o f our ,state government just aS state politicians are using every sort^oTmears to break down, county, township, school and t i l ­ lage government, so that control can be lodged with the politi­ cians in Columbus. / The first division of our local government marked for trans­ fer is breaking down local school authority. Every effort is being made to drive our leading citizens off of school boards. Board members along with clerks are being harrassed by ex­ aminers and discredited wherever possible. It all is part of the progrant to breakdown all local government, and it has the support of tlie grafters in both the dominent political parties that find it easier to trade with the bosses than with independ­ ent board members. Engle, Senntor Glass said: “Thousands of struggling industries are being driven out of business . . .1 have not had anything to do with it, nor have I permitted it to have anything to do with my business.” Yet again, Senator Glass, speak­ ing of the New Deal's fiscal policies, said: “The newspapers o f yesterday and today have stated that the senior senator front Virginia' (Mr. .Glass himself) has created a sensation by disagreeing with the President (Mr. Roosevelt). The implication is, of course, that any senator who how pre­ serves his intellectual integrity aind consistently maintains the views which he has privately and publicly express­ ed for many years is creating a sensa­ tion. I have not deserted my party, 1 wrote with my own hand that pro­ vision o f the national Democratic platform which declared for a sound currency to be preserved at all haz­ ards . . . this simple recital will in­ dicate that 1 have not deserted any­ body or any party in opposing the bill, I am simply consistently main­ taining an attitude of earnest convic­ tion on public questions, which is more important to me than the"favor~of party or potentate , ...” ‘ Greene County Relief ..

You have also read o f attempts on the past of the Roosevelt “ rubber-stamp” congress to tie the hands of the court as a penalty for declar­ ing the AAA unconstitutional. You have been lead to be- .lieve that the New Deal will continue to legislate to get around the court decision. Each day we get a new idea only to be fol­ lowed with a statement in a few days that the idea would be unconstitutional. Monday must have been a day for head-aches among New Deal followers for Roosevelt requests immediate repeal of the control act for tobacco* cotton and potatoes. Now we read the “ rubber-stamp” congress is to get into action and reverse itself after alt this wind-jamming that the AAA was constitutional and the only salvation for agriculture. With this jumping here and there the country must Witness the spectacle of a congress that lacks courage or the ability to back its own laws. Harry Hopkins, the Roosevelt relief brain-truster once said the .“ people were too damn dumb to understand” what the New Deal was. We .wonder today if the majority of people in this country have not come’ to the conclusion that Congress hardly knows what it is all about, using the Hopkins yard-stick for measuring congressional ability. ’ The next, appeal the countiy will probably hear will be for a dictatorship, or. the theory that the Supreme Court is in the way and congress an unnecessary lawmaking body. A dictator Writes his own laws and we have one ready to . assume the mantle as soon a? he can disrupt our present form of rep­ resentative government, the county's -poor relief budget.

Members of the boards realize more fully than do patrons, the tendency of more centralization and the final elimination of all local boards, with the governing and di­ recting head in Columbus, If this should be accomplished patrons of their own district would have little or no say whatever a? to control of he schools, being called on as. tax­ payers to foot the bill, what ever it might be. By demand of a Cuyahoga county memjber of the present legislature all school legislation was held up until the section providing for the payment of 32 per meeting for not to exceed ten meetings, or 320 annually. was dropped. The object was to dis­ courage loco) board members from serving that the ' present system would be broken down and the Schools placed directly under the con- f trol of state politicians in Columbus, ! The boards formed a county federa­ tion with the election o f F. M. Gil- JilanlUan, president, and Mrs. W. W. Galloway, secretary. It was agreed that, it was best to have the secre^ tary in the same community as the chairman in the matter of correspond­ ence. Speakers who urged formation o f such, an organization to offset the movement to break down local con­ trol o f schools were Rep. W,. R. Mc- Chesney, County Supt. H. C. Ault- man, Attorney J.
