FRIDAY, JANUARY 14,1038 THAT $100 PER PLATE NEW DEAL DINNER With the unemployment list near what it was in 1933 and going higher each day, demands in every section of the nation formi ore relief, New Dealers, some 1,000 or more federal office holders, sat down to the richest o f the land last Saturday night at $100 a plate. The main feature was in Washington, D. C„ with $25 per plate per office holder dinners in each of the 48 states. It was tears for the unfortunate on beans and prunes while the upper crust dindd on costly wine and cavier. On the4speaking program Franklin D. Roosevelt opened the feast with a theme song, “You can’t keep me from dream­ ing,” a much different story than what he, pictured before con­ gress several days previous. His speeches being prepared by the $28,000 head of the Democratic Publicity Bureau, and being so good F. D. has been in the habit of repeating them tame after time* He openly admitted that he had cast his first vote for his cousin, Theodore Roosevelt, Republican. Down in Alabama the southern Democrats had just completed a hand- to-hand campaign against Thomas Heflin,- Kluxer, because he had campaigned and voted against A1 Smith in 1928. , Roosevelt probably being influenced by the approach of the Sunday morning hour before the banqueters'would leave, stressed the fact that the New Deal was mostly interested in upholding the integrity of the morals of the people. His Sug­ gestion was timely ip view of the fact that the White Hoifse in the Holiday season was the scene of the socialites doing the “ Big Apple,” a southern sensational, dance dragged out of a negro hovel in South Carolina. ‘ Just' how safe the morals .of the nation are under the New Deal may be open for debate, and yet the New.Deal may have the same ideal of reform as the “ old maid that married the drunkard to reform him.” r . , * ^ . -THE “SOS” SIGN IS OUT AT WHITEHOUSE t d e p r e s s i o n growing deeper and deeper ; - each day, brah^trusters running around in- circles looking fo r *- some sensible plan to stimulate the business they wrecked; see­ ing that the greater the debt has only added to the load the taxpayer must stand and that an unbalanced budget means more uncertainty in th4 value ,of .money, stocks, bonds, Tand : -and all forms of property, the mountain has moved to the White House. Baffled by failure from all plans submitted by his ; Communistic and Socialistic, advisors, Franklin D. Roosevelt, flaunts the white-flag, calling for aid. Tuesday the nation was astounded when it read that the very crooks, the economic royalists, the 60 families that control .the nation, were invited to the White House where their counsel was sought in a pleading that was never known .before in the history of the nation. The New Deal from the days of the NRA tried to brand such men as Sloan, Weir, and others as public enemies. To add to the mystery of the situation Roosevelt now calls for fifty more of the same “ brand” of citizens that he has sought to disgrace to play to a stupid public' * Before the economic situation is cleared and the nation pulls itself from the depth of the pitfall,Vith relief rolls grow­ ing and unemployment spreading as it did in 1932, don’t be surprised if the White House occupant is not on hi&knees plead­ ing for advice from AI Smith, Herbert Hoover and Alf Landon. He will welcome today the lowest of the' lowest from the Liberty League. < The day is evidently past when even the President of the United States desires to lean longer on the radical New Dealers, most o f whom have been personal failures in management and "dbidiict o f their own business. Business' can no .longer be bluffed, ft has triedf to co-operate but with Unreasonable de- • mands o f labor unions, social security taxes and a dozen dif- ’ ferent kinds of corporation taxes; profits’ have been impossible with hundreds of companies. Time only will tell whether FDR ^ ^ c a n be relied-upon to follow the advice from whom he seeks The Republicans cannot get excited oyer the conquest in so-called Demo­ cratic ranks, between the social or Communist branch and the few Jeffer­ sonian Democrats that can be- found. The Republicans have been roaming long enough but still have some im­ portant issues to settle among them­ selves. Then new standards have been set. For instance we hear much about “ just as { have planned it,” not the recession however. Wo do not know just where to look for a Republican of presidential tiniber, if that kind of timber is still required, that has been fortunate or unfortunate tp have lived a life where his father’s agent, a trust company, planned everything fo r him, sort o f a guardian for a natural life time-—unless we can have a rubber stamp Supreme Court that will undo what our fathers do for ua in writing wills. Of course the old line Jeffer­ son Democrat never experienced any­ thing of the kind but the New Deal is,like the “ old woman's mother- hubbard—it covers- every thing. . Ex-Cong, L, T, Marshall comes’ to the front with a query wanting to know.who is financing some or all of the many county committee meetings in the Seventh District, where he evidently is not invited. Union county Republicans gathered last week and endorsed Clarence jj. Brown for Con­ gress. The Fayette county Republi­ cans gather this week. We confess we do'not know as we have attended but one such event and that was down in Clinton county when Publisher Galvin o f the News-Journal put on the steam to do honor for his fellow countian and at the same time get-the Brown name in the pot as' a candidate for congress. In as much as Mr. Brown hails from Blanchester in the same county, it would not be hard to guess •' about the dinner business. Knowing Mr. Galvin as we do, we never yet have beard of him paying for something he did not have some say of the management. It was he who urged the first big show, j COMPARE THESE PRICES with those of other market* in your vicinity and you will see why it pays to bring your live stock to our market.

Learn about new machines, new methods and new ways of cutting costs; Certainly Mr. Marshall docs not want to intimate that Mr. Brown had any hand in a situation wherein in­ i’ temalaffairs between Schorr-Pember- ton and the Ex-Congressman have j broken the long relationship that . existed up until the past-year 7 As . long as the Marshall fight is against , Schorr and Pemberton we will ap- ' plaud but it should not bring an in- ■noccnt outsider in question. In days j past there existed very friendly as ; well as political co-operation between ; Brown and Marshall. We recall in one central committee organization fight Marshall needed one vote to hold the organization. He induced Brown, ■t,lcn Secretary of State,‘to find a placc ; for a certain Spring Valley gentleman, i who was a member of the committee. By Mr. Brown’s act Marshall retain­ ed control o f the committee. Some of Mr. Brown’s personal as well ns political friends objected, but “ poli­ ties is polities,” and even the writer never broke a long, personal friend­ ship with Mr. Brown because he threw patronage towards Marshall to help control the central committee. We learned.long ago that patronage would burn any man’s fingvgs if ho handled .it long enough, "We om -nef 11.. , _____ASK FOR TICKETS . / / Admission Is by ticket only.

We believe, Roosevelt said a few weeks «*u following his helhraislug speech in Chicago, that broke all Uio markets, that we are not having a “ depression" but just a “ recession,” whatever that means. I f we read some o f our Demo­ cratic writers not even that which Roosevelt admits is hero, exists. The head o f one manufacturing company in Xenia stated to the writer last week that his company actually hud! less business now than any time dur­ ing the depression in 19S2 and 1933. groat Hoaint chain o f radio stations. Roosevelt stopped fighting Hearst and licmrst, just looks after the Roosevelts A fter all it. is a happy combination but what became o f the Hearst once $500,000 salary! JOHN W. BOSS DIED SATURDAY We spent some time going y -* " dowrt the columns of a Now Y d ’, paper that,listed most of the pr*v?- inent business men that drew salaries exceeding $15,000 a year. Last year or 1936, W, It. Hearst, millionaire- Democrat publisher, headed the list with a salary of more than half a million, which if he were a Republi­ can would make him an “ economic royalist." This year Hearst’s name is not in the list, We failed to find the heads o f the General Electric Go,, one o f the largest manufacturers, and holding companies in the country, that supply power plants for utility com­ panies., The company .has had unusual business due to providing power plants * in government dams. The president and also the. chairman of the board - of directors are prominent Democrats, i It has been intimated in business circles that the trustees of the ori-i ginal Roosevelt estate .have large holdings in this company; It is hard to tell, the company may have lost money on the government contracts, or the “ recession” might have eaten up all the profits so that the officers were not able to draw their usual ,salaries. If ’such is the case it is unfortunate, as well as very unusual. Does any one know Messrs. Swoop or Owen Young? Myma Turns Cave-woman JOHN W. ROSS Mr. Marshall is somewhat disturb­ ed about the manner in which Ed Schorr, Republican State Chairman, and D. C. Pemberton, Columbus lobby­ ist, have interested themselves in the district meetings. If Mr. Marshall refers to the long-distance political management in this district, we can agree With him for that has been our complaint for a number o f years. “Herald” files will reveal some history back in the days when Mr. Pemhei-ton was “ king Dodo” in the Marshall state .senatorial campaigns. We re­ call vividly a famous dinner in the DeShler hotel following adjournment of the legislature when Pemberton,- and other lobbyists joined together to pay honor to “ Our Senator.” Marshall and the late H. ■E. Schmidt, being political opponents, the latter was in­ vited to the dinner by a telephone lobbyist from Cincinnati. When “ H. E.” was escorted in the suite, con­ sternation reigned for a few seconds, Pemberton seeing the situation, play­ ed the fake guest racket on “H. E.” and stated he iwas wanted at the door, Once out in the hail, “ II. E,” took his hat in hand for Xenia for the door was locked behind him. This is just a bit o f history, that may serve in keeping the'record fresh. As for Mr. Marshall’s objection to meddling of outsiders in congressional affairs we agree, only he should have joined us some ten or twelve years ago when the campaign was really hot. It is singular that Mr. Hearst with 26 daily publications cannot show a salary' of even $15,000. A couple of years ago his Seattle paper was swal­ lowed up by the Roosevelt-Lewis CIO union. It was the first time Hearst was whipped by a union, he had been opposing New Deal ideas. Hearst never accumulated his many millions without knowing the old rule of “ Where there is a will there is a Way." He put Roosevelt’s son-in-law in charge at a handsome salary. The strike was soon ended, Another mem­ ber of the Roosevelt household was attracted to the salary list, Elliott, second son, who is now head o f the John W. Ross, 77, a lifelong resi­ dent of this place,. died at his home Saturday evening about 5:40.. He had not been in good health for several months but death followed a heart I attack ten days ago due to arterio- j sclerosis. I * ' J ' Mi-. Ross was for forty-two years! custodian o f the public school build-! ing, serving first in the old budding on Xenia avenue. He was always interested in' public affairs and gave much of his time on village council where he served for twenty-two years. He had retired from council and also the school position some time ago. He was a member o f the Presby­ terian -Church, the Masonic Lodge, and also the I. O. O'. F. lodge. Mr. and Mrs. Ross celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary in July, 1935, which was one o f the most pleasant events o f their lives. In his young­ er days Mr. Ross was a member of the old Cedarville band that always followed the local fire-department when the hand-engine engaged in con­ tests with firemen in numerous cities in Ohio. His service toward the community will long be remembered by local residents. A s a tribute to his, memory the public schools -closed Lovely Myrna Loy Is the beauty’in-silks and ermine who fights with the fury of a tigress when -Rosalind Russell steals her man in. “ Man-Proof” which Will open Sunday, January 16, at the Xeni* theater In Xenia for a th^ee day engagement, In lavish bettings of a. metropolitan flavor. Miss Loy appears as a newspaper artist in love with a social climber, Walter PIdgeon, who marries an heiress, Rosalind Russell, instead. Franchpt Ton* who works on the same paper with Myrna secretly, loves her but won’t admit it to her. They remain “ pals” with Myrna temporarily forgetting her defeat in Tone’s gay company until the honeymoon- ers return and she renews her siege on PIdgeon's affections. The startling climax o t this ultra-modern foursided romanct brings about a happy ending for all concerned, Prominent in the supporting cast are Nana Bryant,^ Ruth Hussey, Rita Johnson ant John Miljan. at noon .and bifSiness houses closed during the funeral hour.
