During the campaign the Republican speakers, laid stress on the part all labor would have in the new legislation, that had not been discussed by the New Dealers until it became a live f topic by the opposition. ’ • * It will be recalled that Roosevelt answered Candidate ^Landon by charging Republicans wit h“ attacking the American pay envelope.” Roosevelt did not deny .what the Republicans charged, neither did he admit anything. His counter denial was in the nature of drawing the inference that Republcians Were attacking the labor payroll of the country. The New Deal did not want labor to know the exact facts until after the election. All persons working for salary or wages, excepting those engaged.in agriculture, domestic services in private homes, government service, and a few other excluded occupations, are eligible . The Social Security law makes it mandatory for employers, of all labor of the above classifications, to deduct a certain percent from each wage payment. The amount deducted will be sent to Washington. . • Bach employee will be given a number and registered by the government and each time he changes his place of employ­ ment he must keep his government informed. The wage tax on labor, goes into effect in January. Each laborer will be given •an identification number, a new innovation other than the plan used for years in state and federal, prisons where numbers supereeed names. TAXES AND SCHOOLS— BALANCED BUDGETS The closing of the public schools in.Springfield where more than 12,000 pupils are on enforced vacation due to financial embarrassment of the school board, brings to light several things that should cause the average citizen to give more con­ cern to the manner in which his tax dollar is spent. Springfield has closed her school houses and locked the doors until there is money to pay the teachers, .the last payment having been made in June. There are scores of other towns and cities that are in as bad financial condition as Springfield but they are letting bills go unpaid and teachers wait for their money. At the recent election most of the extra school levies were defeated by the electors,, all of which leaves the schools in our largest cities, Cincinnati, Dayton and Akron on par with __SpringffelcL___:_________________________________ _______ Springfielders are ready to admit that if another election was to be held today to vote on a special levy it would be de­ feated. It seems the time has come when the property owner, even those who have children in the schools, are ready- to draw the line on increased taxes. ' Little is being said about the real situation as it exists in Springfield. ' Money that should have been saved to pay teachers was used to meet the boondoggling dollar hancled out by the New Deal. Millions and millions in bonds have been issued by cities and school districts to meet government free money ’and most of these taxing districts are just beginning to wake up to the fact that the free dollar handed out by Santa Claus is going to come /high, and collected from real estate. - While Springfielders appealed tq the Dbvey administration for financial aid to keep the school, doors open, comes the ans­ wer that no relief is possible as the school district has had its share. More than that, the state school fund is over drawn the heat sum of six- million dollars.' For weeks Gov. Davey was keeping the radio air lanes hot telling electors how he had balanced the budget. Three days after election his administra­ tion announces this huge deficit. Gov. Davey called the legislature together last January, “ for a few days” and it was in session for many months. Twice or three times funds had to be voted for state supported schools During the recent campaign Gov. Davey urged repeal of the sales tax on food for home use and that with a balanced budge: no new taxes would be necessary. Monday we read that the Davey administration, now proposes to increase the sales tax on all other items from two per cent to three per cent to get the twelve million lost on food sales taxes. The whole tax is becoming so complicated few can either keep up with reports or can understand all the claims of state officials. It is no wonder Springfielders have turned down the extra school levy. The elector must have reached the con­ clusion in the light of all claims that it is best to defeat all tax increases- The call for civic pride and the support of educa­ tion for our youth is lost in broken down faith the elector has in public officials. ; , Father Coughlin, noted radio priest, who has had a prominent place in political circles, announced suddenly in a radio address last Saturday night that his National Union for Social Justice would become inactive and that he would retire is as much as most o f the nine million members did not live up to their pledges, it was time for him to retire hut not re­ treat, Father Coughlin says the re­ sult o f the election was a disappoint­ ment and a repudiation of the pledges o f the NUSJ. , During, the campaign every few days the United Press, official pews source‘ for the New Deal, carried stories o f what had happened, or would happen to Coughlin for his op­ position to Roosevelt. Each report indicated that Coughlin's superiors would take action, but fo r some reason none o f ithe reports ever prov-. ed to be true. In retiring Father Coughlin made it plain that he was taking the action on his own respon­ sibility. His superior, Bishop Gal­ lagher, Detroit, issued a statement Monday, regretted that Father Coughlin was retiring and hoped that he soon would return to the air. All of which would indicate that the New Deal has not yet overcome the op­ position of the radio priest. * . A prominent Cincinnati Democrat is looking for a well improved farm, so we are informed this week." He has inspected two or three farms in Cin- ■ton county and a three hundred-acre farm in Cedarville Twp.. The Cin­ cinnatian never has owned a farm but was for many years prominent in business in that’city and now retired. He though he had provided financial comfort fo r himself and. family with his life savings in bonds. Having been one o f the “ rugged •individualists” that started in business with a few hundred dollars and earned a small fortune in fifty years he now fears the worst kind of. inflation and seeks to convert his bonds into land. Cedar­ ville Twp. and Greene county have reason to court such citizens. Few 'rugged individualists” seldom seek government aid. The letter writer to the Cincinnati Enquirer Bureau in Columbus will be a bit surprised to know that this column had the information Tuesday morning. • A report has been in cir­ culation that a local Democrat has had Enquirer straw ballots to hand out in former years. Both the Columbus Enquirer Bureau and the business office in Cincinnati through the pub­ lisher brand such statements as un­ true. This was not the rule this year nor any other year. The joke, is on the letter writer. WHICH IS RIGHT OR WRONG? Inconsistency seems to be the rule, rather than exception, in the political world. . A perfect example is provided when pending Federal better-housing plans are compared with proposed “ fair trade practices” legislation in the Robinson-Patman Bill. The housing plan is designed to standardize homes much as automobiles are standardized, cut cost of materials and reduce the amount of labor required for erecting a home. It is estimated that a standardized house could be built for about $1,200 which would be equal in size and quality to houses now costing $3,00. The theory behind the Federal better-housing pten is that the high cost of “ independent” building makes it impossible for millions o f citizens to purchase homes they need and want, and that substantial reductions in building costs would encourage home buying. The Robinson-Patman Bill, on the other hand, would out­ law trade practices which have been developed to reduce the cost of producing and selling all manner o f merchandise and foods. It'would either cause higher prices to the consumer, or prevent reductions that could otherwise be made. Its effect would be to reduce the public’s purchasing power, • Apparently some of our lawmakers think that it is proper to build and sell houses on an efficient mass-production basis that will give the buyer more for his money—but that it is improper to produce and sell merchandise aftd food in the same way. More consistency should be applied to the business o f law-making before more laws are passed. S H E E P A N D I A M B P R I C E S NOW POSTED 9 A . M .

The largest crowd that ever wit­ nessed a national as well as a state corn husking contest found its way to the Alva Oyler farm, 26 miles cast of Columbus ,Tuesday. The crowd was estimated at 135,000. Even the rain and mud did not have any effect on the husking contest. It is unusual that the Oyler farm of 482 acres of rich black land should be the site of the largest agriculture event in farm circles and yet be on the foreclosure auction block. Oyler gets no profit from the com husking contest yet he must have covered a heavy heart knowing that his farm was soon to be. sold to satisfy a government agency that holds a $45,000 mortgage on it, There has been much specula­ tion as to how much damage is actual­ ly done a farm where 135,000 people tramp in wet weather. In addition there were many demonstrations of all kinds of farm machinery. Fences had been moved, others were tramped down. The character o f the soil at this season made it necessary to use tractors to keep heavy trucks from miring down. Much ado is being made o f the dividends being paid by large cor­ porations as well as bonuses to em­ ployees before December 31. Many of these companies have accumulated large surplus funds for business de­ velopment over a period e f years. With the New Deal tax law that eats up to 42 per cent o f partnership and corporation surplus, companies are handing this back to stockholders rather than pay the tax to the gov­ ernment. Where these companies will get surplus money to purchase raw materials next year or funds *to re­ place worhout machinery or new addi­ tions, no one knows, other than bor­ row at the banks, which means in­ terest charges, which are added to the cost o f merchandise produced. If business lagsi companies cannot carry labor as they have the past three years or more. No business, ho labor; nor wage tax or income tax to the government.

GOLDE.N TEXT—Greater love hath no man than this, that * man lay down his life for his friends, John 15:13., PRIMARY TOPIC—On the Castle Steps. JUNIOR TOPIC—On the CasUe Steps. INTERMEDIATE AND JJENIQR TOPIC —Taking Risks for Christ, . YOUNQ PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Risking All for Christ. We now come to the close of the third missonary journey of Paul. As he came to Jerusalem for the last time in his eventful life he was warned by e prophet, Agabus at Caesarea, that if he went up to Jerusalen he would. be bound and given over to the OssHles. ' Heroisrh of the highest and noblest type has characterized the follow­ ers of Christ in all times. Paul was hot one to* be deterred from what he believed to be God’s will by the probability that he would suffer. Like all who follow the Lord Jesus Christ in truth he was I. Fearless, in Praettec.as Well as Theory (Acts 21:12,13, 27-34). Many there are who sing, “ I’ll go where you want me to go, dear Lord, I ’ll be what you w an t me to be,” or smoothly repeat consecra­ tion vows, who, are frightened away, at the slightest difficulty, and. who feel that they must have been mis­ taken about the Lord’s will for their life at the first indication that his ,guidance would interfere with their comfort or convenience. No such, cowardice or vacillation was found in Paul. , , In the first place, he did not intend to have a holy purpose weakened by disheartening. talk* How many young men and women have left a place of sacred meeting with God aglow with the purpose observing Him in the foreign mission field, •and then permitted an uninterested friend or relative or employer to talk them out of it. In the second place, we find Paul carrying through his purpose. When he came to Jerusalem he was coun­ seled to enter the temple to take s Nazarite vow, and-thus-ta-satisfy. his enemies. Some have com ­ mended Paul for thus pacifying those who withstood him, others strongly condemn'him for yielding. His purpose was.good, but his act led to unfortunate results. An in­ furiated Jewish mob' saw him in the temple and wrongfully accused him of defiling1the temple by bring­ ing a Greek into this holy place. A riot' ensues, and Paul would have been killed had not the Ro­ man captain and his band rescued him. Was Paul afraid? He im­ mediately turned his arrest into an unsurpassed opportunity to give a testimony and to make a .defense of his ministry (See Acts 21:40- 22:22). He admonished otHers to “ be instant in season and out o f season” (II Tim- 4 :2 ); he practiced what he preafched. He constantly Urged faith in God, steadfastness in the midst o f trials; he gave full proof of these things in his own ministry. In all this he did not seek his own glory, or any honor for his own name. The Christian hero . knows nothing of heroism for pub­ licity’s sake; he does not serve with an; eye on the “ grandstand.” Paul was actuated by a deep and a genuine ' II. Concern for the Salvation of His People (Rom 9:1-5). The Christian worker who knows nothing of “ great sorrow and un­ ceasing pain” in his heart over the plight of the unsaved does not fol­ low in the Pauline successiofrxn does he know the heart of the M of Sorrows, Paul surely did not wish himself separated from Christ, but was so deeply moved that he said he “ could wish” it—if it were not wrong—in order to save his brethren. Do we need a revival of com­ passion in our-churclies, and in our own hearts, a yearning over the multitudes about us who are as sheep without a shepherd? A Golden Link A mother’s love is indeed the golden link that binds youth to age, and he is still but a child, however time may have furrowed his cheek, or silvered his brow, who can yet recall with a softened heart, the fond devotion, or the gentle chid- ings, of the best friend that God ever gives us.

According to the man’s story he had spent the night in the Springfield city jail and while there was subject to rough treatment by fellow prisoners. He had been cover­ ed with a strong disinfectant that burned the flesh in a terrible manner. The man was minus one arm and one limb and was taken in the McMillan Ambulance to the county home for medical treatment.
