Entered at the Post Office, Cedarville, Ohio, October 31,1887, as second class matter, FRIDAY, MAY 28, 1937 PRESBYTERIANS OPPOSE COURT PACKING PLAN A resolution protesting against passage of any measure that may render the supreme court or any other court sub* servient branches of the government is before the Presbyterian General Assembly now in session in Columbus. The resolution refers to constitutional guarantee of religious and civil liberty both of which are at stake under the New Deal. Never before in the history of this country has the Christian religion faced the danger of being crushed by political non­ believers, ^theists and enemies of the church. Not only are the different branches of the Protestant church alarmed but the Catholic and Jewish churches face the same issue. Com­ munism and radical reds with Russian background hold important places under the New Deal government. These enemies of a democratic government surround the Chief Executive, being of his own choice. The same brand are in­ stalled in every branch of the government as well as the diplo­ matic service. Not only the future of the Christian religion is at stake in this country but fraternal orders such as the I. O. O. F., K. of P., Junior Order American Mechanics and Masonic Order are now feeling the crushing hand of the New Deal Communist dictator in more ways than one. In every foreign country where Com­ munists have a hold the Christian religion has been abolished and fraternal orders crushed out of existance. While the Presbyterians are taking action against the Roosevelt court packing plan to enthrone a Communist- Laborite on the bench, a representative of-the American Fed­ eration of Labor in a speech in Cincinnati, Monday, charged that Communists had full control of the John L; Lewis union that has had the active support of the New Deal. More than one-fraternal ord^r has dropped the use of the name of the Chief Executive in open meetings. The oldest citizen never before experienced such a situation in this country. ROOSEVELT WANTS HIGHER FARM WAGES Some weeks ago the Herald carried a boxed editorial on this page which provided for signatures, of farmers that ap­ proved higher wages for farm hands. The appeal was directed to those who have so warmly supported the New Deal and gave passive support, to higher- wages for all other classes of labor. We were not suprised that not a single farmer signed in behalf of higher wages for farm help. Our object was to im press on the reading public that the Roosevelt program thus far was all one-sided and that social security, old age pensions unemployment insurance, etc., would be paid for by the rural consumer and little of this, form of tax that is to fall directly on the consumer would be returned to rural sections. Under this plan small business in rural sections would suffer most because the Roosevelt plan up until that time was mainly to boost the interest of organized labor; in the cities. We had been informed throiyfh a friend in Washington that New Deal leaders were being severely critized in their own political ranks because farm labor, domestic labor, those ‘ in the professions were not included. The situation worried not only Roosevelt but leaders in Congress that face re-election next year. . - Monday of this week you have the answer which we asked for some weeks ago. This time it comes from Roosevelt himself and not the New Deal farm supporter. The open statement is made by Roosevelt himself that factory as well as farm labor must be guaranteed minimum wages and hours of labor. - He lehves the rate of pay and the hours to be fixed by Congress but it is suggested from the White House that the minimum wage should be 40c an hour with either a 35 or 40-hour week. It was just last week that Mrs. Roosevelt urged legislation for minimum wages and hours for all domestic help and this meets our approval. Rather than have part of our citizenship pro­ tected with the Communistic form of government control of private affairs, we think it not only just and fair to all that all labor, male, female, old or young be fixed by. law with the legal number of hours.’. Down in Cuba the hours of labor and wage are fixed by law 1 in addition all labor gets two weeks vacation with pay. Laoor unions will oppose the fixing of the hourly wage for when a legal rate is fixed every one will benefit by the minimum-and if the experience of Cuba is followed that will be the maximum wage. i • ' We hope the Roosevelt proposal of fixed wages and hours for farm labor does not prove objectionable to the New Dealers that have been whooping it up for Roosevelt for more than four years. If the rubber stamp congress jumps at the crack of the whip as it has been doing, the wage and hour proposa will become a law and the directions will say "Take It and Like It.” Let’s have no back-sliding now. The New Dea millennium is at hand. - It really is amusing what you can pick up when you circulate about those thoge that deal in politics, state and county contracts and the inner workings o f a successful lobbyist that not only watches legislation for his company but organizes his key rpen in each county as to certain con­ tracts. Some days ago in Columbus we had a pleasant two hours with a friend of ten years acquaintance that is regarded one o f the successful lob­ byists that “ cover” the Ohio legis­ lature. We use the term “ cover” as if this friend served as by assign­ ment for the reason he has had the back-ground o f a successful reporter. The matter o f selling to the state iepartments.and to counties calls for a wide experience and personal know­ ledge of the kind of a circle the buy­ er, in this case a political appointee rr an elective official, moves in. The ’obbyist has a data book that tells a :on\plete story for it misters not whether the office holder, is in the state department, legislature o r . a ’ ounty official, the little hook gives a world-.of detailed information. It will tell you who likes to play poker, cock­ tail parties, night-club life and best of ill just who have the itchy palm that •an be relieved only by placing nice :lcan and crisp bills of a denomination .hat is in keeping with a certain per­ centage of the contract price in ,the effected hand. Now in this little gathering of two beside the writer there was a* discus­ sion of '“ business” as' it related to cer­ tain counties and before we' could hardly realize it Greene county was under discussion. It so happened that .he “ key-man” in this county, a. Demo­ cratic attorney, had fallen down and had not been able to turn in an order. , The well groomed lobbyist is always ible to work both sides of the political fence. For once we learned that Democratic office holders are made out of the same stuff Republicans are made of and that the old game o f polities and dishing out the gravey are played under the same rules. This week we made-a little checkup to sec just what had been taking place in Greene county. You can be assured no civil or moral law has been broken for the reason the Democratic at­ torney has had a poor field for opera­ tion. The Democratic attorney can­ not get away from his shadow from now on. moved. This.} crazy quilt houses will lent fer i;8 a room a month. There will Le no back yard for dogs or chickens. Take a view of how a com­ mon laboring man is to finance his new home, pay for gas, electric light and telephone. This class o f labor under the wage control plan will draw $16 for a five day week, or $64 a month. Rent for fiye rooms will be $40, which will leave the “ forgotten man” $24 with which he must pay electric light and gas bill, purchase clothing and groceries. But where is he to get funds to buy gasoline for his auto, have a few drinks of RooBe- velt rum and take the family to a new picture show each week? Franklin county trustees that have tho relief program placed in their lap began to cut the relief list first, Ir one township the trustees cut the list from 241 to 5 families and ordered the others tq go to work. But that is a poor way to buy and hold Demo­ cratic votes. And the taxpayers of the township are backing the trustees to the man. Fanners had been unable o hire scores o f the men on relief. SENATOR ROBINSON FOR SUPREME COURT For weeks Roosevelt has had members of the Supreme Court on the spot and by his insinuations has built up wrathful antagonistic group in this county against the high court. One of the older members resigned a few days ago which .will enable Roosevelt to make the appointment but the con­ stitution provides that the Senate must confirm the appoint­ ment. Over a period of years several prominent men have fel the sting of defeat at the hands of an opposing Senate. Roosevelt found himself on the spot no sooner than when the anhouncement of Judge Van Devanter’s resignation reach­ ed the Senate, At once a friendly Senate, with a large Demo cratic majority, welded itself into a concrete block bound to dictate for once just who the next Supreme Court Justice would be. When the Senate said that Joe Robinson was the only man it would confirm as justice, that was using the Roosevelt power of dictatorship. The\Senate is aware that Roosevelt faces three hard issues ip making the appointment. He is obligated to John L. Lewis and other Communistic labor leaders. He must have the hack­ ing of the liquor interests and he must have the support of the solid south. Having promises on both Sides of the anti­ lynching law he could not hope for success without keeping southern senators sweet. Robinson comes from Arkansas were lynching is a public holiday. Southern Senators have swallow­ ed prohibition repeal as a part of the party platform knowing the south still wants prohibition . The Senate takes the lead and ties Roosevelt’s hands when the ultimatum is issued that it will he Joe Robinson, always in the past a conservative Demo­ crat, and not a hireling of John L, Lewis, wha would dictate court decisions if Roosevelt has his way in packing the court. Senator Vic Donahey stood up to be counted against the packing process hut Sen. Bulkley, an early supporter of the packing plan, has gone into personal retirement. Senator Senator Bulkley must soon announce whether he is to stand for ’constitutional government or a Supreme Court that will take orders from a labor union organizer that has built a racket with federal support that outshines anything A1 Capone ever attempted in gangsterism or bootlegging, Between Robinson and Lewis on the court issue we would cast our lot with the former. Luxuries often indulged become necessities. Senator Copeland, (D.) New York, in a radio address some days a^o ad­ vocated that tho .government drop HOLC foreclosures, extend all .loans from 15 to 30 year? and reduce the interest from five per cent to two and one-half per cent. The HOLC now has brought suit against 160,000 property owners that borrowed money under the new system: ' The government in­ terest rate on the HOLC bonds is 2.624 per cent and if the property owner interest rates is cut from five to two and one-half, Uncle Sam would lose plenty of money each year if every dollar of principle and interest was paid. Certain Democratic politicians have organized a new racket to high- pressure congress in passing this pro­ posed bill. Each borrower is asked to join the Democratic racket by pay­ ing an initiation fee of three dollars and twenty-five cents a month dues, doubt some deserving Democrat on reljef can get his name on the payroll of the newest racket. We mentioned the plan of this organization to a well- known Democrat gome days ago, he himself holding down two jobs. He doubted if there Were many on relief that could hold down such jobs and already it was necessary for Demo­ crats to take the second job as the list that could read and write had been exhausted on the first call. The nuts and the McNutts have complicated the social proceediire as to group drinking. Paul McNutt, former Democratic governor of In­ diana, that left that state several mil­ lion dollars in the hole, was shipped to the Philippines by the New Deal, as Consul Generali The argument over drinking caused McNutt to is­ sue new orders to Philippine lend­ ers as to toasting before the drink­ ing gets- -to- -a-stage—that - nor one present will .remember whether Franklin D. Roosevelt is the Com­ munist King of the U. S., or High Potentate of Liberia down in Africa. McNutt sqys that Roosevelt’s name n^ust come first. McNutt second and President Quezon of the Islands last. ’ The press reports say nothing as to the brand of liquor used but certainly the Rposevclt New Deal rum has a place on tho drinking toast list.
