Entered At the Post Office, Cedarville, Ohio, October SI, 1887, as second class matter, " FRIDAY, JULY 21, 1939 PRESIDENT VS. U. P, President Roosevelt’s statement criticizing the United Press, because of its report that he and Secretary o f State Hull had disagreed over the form o f a neutrality message, recalls numerous other instances in which he has been*displeased with press associations, individual newspapers and new$ correspond­ ents. Thus, although he said he did not wish His statement “ to be considered as an indictment of the newspapers of the United States or of other press associations,” it is difficult to isolate from other evidences of the administration’s hostility toward newspapers. This statement contains a direct charge and an intimation which amounts virtually to a flat accusation. The charge is: “ The United Press has been guilty of a falsification of the actual facts.” The intimation—that the report was a pure envention —is contained in these words: “ The subterfuge of saying in the lead of the story that they "were ‘reported’ to have disagreet is obvious because it is a practice too often engaged in to invent such ‘reports' out of a clear blue sky, failing wholly to check up with any responsible source in Washington.” The United Press, stands by its story, insisting that the men who collaborated on it are reliable, experienced reporters One heads the association’s senate staff and the other covers the department. They say.each obtained some of the information and that it came “ from government source.” Knowing the operating methods of press associations as we ’do/Jt is difficult to accept Mr. Roosevelt’s charge of falsification, for three reasons. First, the United Press, like other press associations serves hundreds of newspaper representing in their editorial policies all shades of political opinion. If its dispatches took any par­ tisan slant, they would be unacceptable to newspapers favoring some other viewpoint. " •■■ . . Second, a press association’s success rests upon dependabil­ ity scarcely less than on absence of partisan bias. Undepend­ ability would be as destructive of prestige and business as bias Third, the United Press has had the reputation, since the beginning of the New Deal, of giving the Roosevelt administra­ tion the benefit of any doubt. A further jibe by the president clashes headlong with the facts. After charging the United Press with falsification, he adds: “ If called upon to give the source of the information they Will decline to give it—another usual subterfuge,” , Mr. Roose­ velt, like other presidents for years past, has personally im­ parted much information to be published only as “ reports,” Without accepting responsibility for it. Many other government officials also follow this practice—and not a few take advantage of it to deny the statements when reactions are unfavorable, In this instance, Mr. Roosevelt is exhibiting the same hos­ tility as when, last year, he scolded the Associated Press and the New York Sun for reports of a debate on the New Deal In which the anti-administration viewpoint was presented first. He then demanded that the administration side be presented first in all such reports. Among the many other instances which can be Recalled was his receiit temperamental and uncalled- for outburst against the New York Times. : , President Roosevelt gives the impression to thoughful Citizens that he would like, if he could, to suppress all criticism, every viewpoint but his own. His resentment of all criticism, no matter how sincere or constructive, reflects a dictatorial at titude which is utterly out of place in this nation. American have the fairest and freest pre/3sin the world and will not brook any effort to destroy its freedom. —Dayton Herald. NEW DEAL tOST NEUTRALITY ACT » Judging from the action of Congress the New Deal is hav­ ing a hard time holding the Democratic following long enough to got a vote on the Roosevelt-Hull neutrality bill which would commit this nation to the defense and aid of England and France in their war against Germany and Italy. Both Republicans and Democrats recall what happened to Woodrow Wilson following his demand of Congress that this country join with European nations in the League of Nations Which would have made the U. S. the policemah of the world. Wilson died of a broken heart believing he wafe right but the nation has since rejoiced that we were not committed to a policy o f defending any foreign nation with our young men and guns. .One world war in a generation has been enough for this coun try Ro0seveit and Hull stand committed to defend the two leading European countries due to secret treaties that have not been given even to Congress. King George’s, visit to this country was a move purely to influence public opinion in back­ ing the neutrality bill. Congress could not see it that way and thi 3 week for the first time Roosevelt called both Democratic and Republican leaders to the White House to reach an agree­ ment in support of the neutrality measure that is locked in a c om m it t e e by a 12 to 11 vote. Alter three hours the confer- ence adjourned. Of course the Republicans would not yield and the Democratic leaders knew they could not hold their members other than to continue the bill at a future session. This was the end of an imperfect day for the New Deal. It another foggy day in England for King George. nimuimiiimiuiiiitimiiiitHiiHiHimmidiiiimtiiiiiiiiiii iiiiii A fter a lot o f bombast the Davey- crats in Ohio attempted to secure enough names to referendum petitions to check the operation o f a law passoc, by the last legislature that changed the status o f Ohio National Guard officers. Under former Gov. Davey the old law wa» replaced by one that would have given the Davey officers lifetime jobs. jvas ASK TH E P A IN T E R * » ff* wfff i«ff yes fftsl HANNA'S GKEEN SEAL five* « letter leeftlsg •erf more e c e s ew le a f f l a t Jek Metier peinters tell you thet quality give* satisfaction.

When one starts out to organize a ref­ erendum campaign and get 147,000 signatures, they assume a big task. The Daveycrats failed to. get enough names by 20,000. Even had they se­ cured the necessary number o f names that would not insure success for the percentage o f names required is small as compared with the whole vote o f the state. Gov. Brisker has named Major Gen­ eral Gilson -Light, Toledo, to succeed Emil F. Marx, who Gov, Davey wanted to have the job for his lifetime. Two aids of the adjutant general will change also. Democrats ousted have formed a state-wide organization to ask a referendum on the new civil service law. Just nt present ousted Democrats are being urged to contest re moval. The fact that the thirty-day limitation for appeal has long passed and before any o f the present day cases can be heard the new civil serv­ ice law \yill be operative the first of September. There will be change in the membership o f the present board which will become two Republicans and one Democrat. Suits brought by ousted Democrats will bring prosperity for the lawyers, and few of them work for nothing. ' It might be a case of spending good money for bad. Some days ago we had a chat with our old friend Ed Greiner, one of Springfield’s leading manufacturers. Te-also has his official connection with i bank in his city and as a side line >perates a farm of-some 450 acres. Greiner only talks politics for amuse- aent making at one time his maiden rip in the primary field for congress­ ional honors on the Republican ticket. Mr. Greiner has ventured into the olood stock game and is laying the "oundation for an Angus herd on his arm east o f Springfield. Just recent­ ly he purchased from western breed ms some o f the very best blooded in- lividuals that could he found in the ountry. From these he will develop ais herd with the aid o f an expert herdsman. He is also feeding beef attic for the market and at present s feeding 112 head of Herefords.

Democratic leaders are t ng hack in this state and wondering just where (heir national chairman, Jim Farley, is going to figure in the next campaign now that he has been given an ap­ pointive position by Roosevelt. Paul McNutt had announced as a candidate for the .White House seat, had his manager, office setup and everything. FDR wants a clear track for a third term and gives McNutt a place on the federal social security setup as ad­ ministrator. It is a fine place to slip security payments to blocks of union labor that can deliver the vote either to FDR or McNutt. Some New Dealers do not trust McNutt and fear he will trick FDR and get the nomination. McNutt does not profess to be a New Dealer and holds he has never been anything but a Democrat. This mixes the complexion o f the situation and makes it hard to. understand. One thing is sure, Roosevelt is trying to freeze Jim Farley, who is not as wel­ come at the White House as formerly. McNutt has no love for Jim. Neither FDR or McNutt want Vice Presdent Gamer up in front in the next cam­ paign and the latter it is said will not even accept the VP nomination if tendered. McNutt has no use for the South and this is poison for Farley, All in all the Democrats have not yet figured out just what part Mc­ Nutt is to have in next year’s show. pictured fo r the young mind, W® might have more o f some standards we need today if we could have, just a bit o f the McGufTey philosophy in present day text books. This may ho unusual to you as a reader and the same to the writer but the ink had hardly dried on our last issue until FDR had issued his state­ ment that “ You fcannot strike against the government.” Our editorial was critical o f the absence o f governmental support o f law and order in strikes. What was said, even without men­ tion o f conviction o f those who violate the law in connection with strikes, we. are duty bound to give, FDR credit for his public utterance in that con nection All industry and business f a part o f our government It is fron this source that governmental lift blood must come in the form, o f taxes If those in charge of the government will not give business and industry protection from unwarranted strikes, by racketeers among labor leaders, then we have not the full meaning o f the recent utterance, “ You cannot strike against the government.” This does not mean that labor cannot or­ ganize but labor has no more right to profit from the acts of the racketeer leader than had A l Capone the right to conduct his brand of banditry. We do not hear much comment in Democratic circles about the list of 788 Democratic or New Deal poli­ ticians that draw salaries ranging from $8,000 down to $1,200, in the WPA setup in this state. At present the New Deal congress has ordered the reduction o f WPA workers, several thousand. All relief is to« be reduced and we read in one place that those on relief may not even be able to get any more grapefruit. With men working 130 hours a month to .draw less than $11 weekly, it looks like the New Deal might at least give these unfortunates a share o f the fat salaries paid the 788 Democratic poli­ ticians in Ohio. When the Columbus paper published, this list Democrats everywhere stuck their head in the sand and have little to say, waiting until the WPA protest wears out. Cong. Jenkins, Rep., Ohio, has in­ troduced a bill in congress to repay Ohio, for the $1,300,000 which was lue the state fo r October 1938 pen­ sions to the .aged. In the political -ombat between Gov. Davey and FDR, he federal board refused to pay Ohio ts share, o f $1,300,000. Gov. Davey sorrowed this, amount from the banks rather than have the aged go without heir pensions, Since then the FDR '.oard has refused to re-imbutse Ohio or its claim. Cong. Jenkins in his bill which has promise o f passing both houses' is doing a good service for all Ohio people. .Of course passing does not mean anything without the signatuie o f FDR ■, July 22 and 23 will be great days down in the seat o f learning in Ox­ ford. There will be a centennial to celebrate the appearance o f the third and fourth McGufTey readers. There will be an old fashioned spelling bee to be broadcast over WLW. There will a reading contest, There will bo a picture show illustrating how Mc- Guffey left home and ventured into the wildncrness and later become fam­ ous. Older citizens have not and could not forget what they received from the famous McGufTey readers in the school days gone hy. As compared ! with with present day text books they I are old stuff.” The present day books Jmay be advanced as we measure text books but none that we know o f ca rry . a lesson or a moral such as McGuffey Gov. -Dickeinson o f Michigan has stirred the politicians in every state, Republican and -Democratic, by his attack on moral conditions surround­ ing public gatherings, one of which he was a guest in New York not long ago. The Governor is noted for his ttpen stand, for wimt he thinks is right, irrespective of what'others think.. His advanced years have covered a period in which he gave no quarter to what he thought would lead to the break­ down of the youth o f the nation. He hns protested public drinking among girls “and women and even does not approve o f the. part men have in this past time. Ills idea! is the American home and his utterances point the way to preserve that institution that has few defenders in public life today. Now a Detroit citizen who says he does not drink, smoke or chew, wants to impeach the Governor for his public utterances. Because one docs not drink, smoke or chew might not be a ticket to the promised land. There are more and other vices to which there is human error. The Dickeison episode recalls a statement of a phris- tian Endeavor leader before a small group at the recent Cleveland meet­ ing. Tiie most outstanding feat of the New Deal has been “ Placing the liquor interests on its feet and remov­ ing the footing of the foundation of the Christian religion in this coun­ try—the Church.” Farmers in harvest time, bring your men t,o the Old Mill Camp for good meals, (tf-9-i6-23)« giiiMiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiitiimiitmhiHtitiMiimiiiiiiMMJiimiiiiiii.

P. Blauser, special­ ist in agricultural engineering, Ohio State University, says that five cents worth o f an electrical power will oper­ ate a mill long enough to clean 100 bushels of grain. Boy-power on the fanning mill would be worth only a fraction o f a cent an hour when compared with the expense o f electrical energy. Rural homemakers also would fall into the low-wage class when doing the family washing because another five cents worth of electricity will turn .out a big washing. Father places himself in the coolie class every time he milks the cows, because five cents worth of electricity will operate a milker while milking 20 cows. That would make the farmer milk four cows hy hand for a cent. Most farmers would concede two or three cents an hour is a rather low wage'for effort expended after a hard day in the fields. The servant that rides the power wires also .will do other onerous .farm tasks for five cents. Mr. Blauser in­ cludes in the nickel class such jobs as turning a grind stone three hours, mixing two tons of feed, grinding 100 to 1,000 pounds o f grain, shearing 75 sheep, pumping 1,000 gallons o f water, churning 100 pounds o f butter, or washing 2,000 milk bottles. All these tasks can be done with power delivered through electric motors, as well as an additional 100 jobs which may cost more for power. Motors, ranging in size from one- sixtieth to seven and one-half horse­ power are adapted for farm uses. Most power companies forbid the use o f larger motors on rural lines. Prices on quarter-horse power motors may range from $6 to $18, depending on the type.
