SIXTIETH YEAR NO. 41 CEDARVILLE, OHIO, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10,1937 PRICE, ?1.50 A YEAR NEWSLETER FROMSTATE DEPARTMENTS COLUMBUS.—Although the total number o f persons in Ohio: benefited under the social security act through programs o f aid fo r the aged, aid to dependent children and to the blind have remained practically stationary for some time, there has been a mark­ ed reduction in general 'relief cases and in the number employed through WPA. This was the report o f Judge Henry- G. Robinson, chief o f the state division of public assistance, fo r the month o f "July but with data correct­ ed as o f August 20. Judge Robison listed 103,935 persons as recipients, o f old age pensions, a figure which has .been virtually the same since last March but which represented a gain of 16,008 compared to July a year ago. The 9,654 families'who are receiving aid to dependent children and the 3>- 697'recipients o f aid to the blind, were approximately the same as the total a year ago. Relief cases declined from 117,199 in February to 60,723 in July while WPA employees dropped from 152,560 in July 1936 to 94,958 in July 1937, Judge Robison reported.

Mr. Aultman is President o f the Wil­ mington District, composed o f .six counties o f Methodist men. The following extracts were taken from his address: “ Sixty meetings were held during sight saving room; 41, seventh grade; the past year with over 10,000 aggre- Extension Forester F.

We have bishops and district superintendents with fine background, specific know­ ledge and years o f experience, whose burning desire is to make appoint­ ments in the light o f church heeds and pastor’s ability to serve, but they are Often ham strung by a certain rule o f thumb, set by salary and seniority and sometimes a self-appointed com­ mittee back home. . • “ My humble plea as a layman is that we cease the silly and unfair ac­ cusations, that the place to find poli Public School Personnel Listed below are names o f the per­ sons employed by the Cedarville Board of Education to have charge of the work in the local public Schools this year. .

A ll I know is what I read in my mail. Youngstown haa hit me right between the eyes this week. Too often we human-beings are un­ consciously opinionated by reason of (a ) environment; (b ) information or misinformation from long range; (c) information from biased or previously opinionated sources, My mail has never brought to me, a franker discussion o f the relief prob­ lem than a letter I received this week from a Mahoning G°nnty official who is well qualified to speak. This letter is worty o f your consideration and makes most worthwhile reading, for every citizen o f Ohio. Therefore, with his permission^ I am passing the mat­ ter on to you. ' “ In the first place, Wp do not agree with the plan o f the League of Municipalities to decentralize relifef mid turn it over' to the taxing sub­ divisions. You have close to forty- eight hundred taxing subdivisions in this state, and if each one would handle a little relief yon can readily See what disorganization it would he. In the financial setup- o f the state o f Ohio through the County Budget Com­ mission, the county is the most logical ,unit and the most economical setup to distribute relief. This has been proven in Mahoning County where we have done all the things that the Other counties in Ohio have failed to do, -and have not been: on the necks of the .House and Senate to finance them for us. “ In our own district Lwe have Ash­ tabula, Trumbull, Stark and Mahon­ ing Counties, all working off a county relief basis and strongly opposed to turning relief over to municipaliites, for we .know from previous experi­ ence that municipalities will make a political mess *of the entire matter. There is also no question that relief is being financed properly and ade­ quately in the above mentioned counties without resorting to the method o f having the state finance us. It is true, o f course, that partial help from the state wo|ld be helpful, but you find none o f thiwe counties in such shape that we will have to ask the state t o pay. sora#dfehbrthat have been incurred withourhaving any au­ thority to make them. “ Why should the state meet local deficits from April ,15th on? It will be unjust to the counties who have made no deficits to have the state pay for deficits made by only a few. What right does .the state have't.o favor one County over another? The state had no control over incurring these deficits so why use tax, funds or general revenue funds to pay them? . “ Also, why is it necessary to have state wide tax when fifty or sixty per cent o f the counties in the state have no relief problems whatever, and of the rest there may be only ten or twelve counties who are in bad financial straits? Why isn’t it possible for the counties who are in bad shape financially to place a tax levy in their own county and if 65 per cent o f the voters see the justice o f it, they can vote fo r it and have enough to finance their own needs without the entire state being taxed, and money returned to spme taxing subdivisions, who, under ordinary conditions would not INHOLD-UP Chief Deputy Sheriff Edward Furry, 38, Clark county, and Martin Ran­ dolph, 41, Springfield city policeman, lost their lives following a bandit holdup o f a Springfield restaurant when $1,297 was secured. , Robert Cornett, one o f the .bandits is dead while Henry Dingledine, one o f the quartet lies wounded in. jail.
