FRIDAY, AUGUST 11,1939 BROKE AT SIXTY-FIVE The majority of men who have money at 35 are stone broke at 661 Business failures, bad investments, illness and other un expected catacysms tell the tragic story. The majority of these men could have enjoyed financially independent old ages, instead of having to depend on charity or the bounty of relatives—^had they put aside money at the time when earning power was at its height, in some plan such as those offered by life insurance. Only charity can help the indigent old whose savings have disappeared.„ We can witness these pitiful examples—and guide our own course accordingly. '..i"1.. . ......................... '"I- | OLD KENTUCKY REPUDIATES NEW DEAL The Democratic primary election, in Kentucky Saturday was a complete rout for the Roosevelt New Deal and' John L. Lewis and the C. I. O. The issue between the two leading Dem­ ocratic candidates was plain, one was supported by the New Deal and the C. I/O ., while the other made an open campaign against the forces of Senator Barkley, New Dealer, and John L Lewis. Lieut, Gov. Keen Johnson, Richmond, Ky., publisher, had the support of the Chandler administration and the A. F. L and won the nomination for governor over John Young Brown, attorney for C. I. O. and candidate backed by Barkley and the administration in-Washington. When a Democratic state like Kentucky refuses to following the dictation of the New Dea and take the chance of loosing federal financial aid, a,new method of vote buying, the Johnson victory must be marked up as a rebuke by a Democratic state against the.Communistic gov­ ernment we have been having for six years in Washington. GET READY FOR WINTER It isn’t pleasant to think of winter while enjoying the warm days of summer. But summer is the time when your home should be prepared against the cold and rainy perioc ahead, in the interest of comfort and fire prevention. Check up on your heating plant first of all. Furnaces and chimneys should be thoroughly cleaned, and necessary repairs made by a qualified expert. Likewise, clean out the fuel bin and when you stock it arrange your fuel in an orderly manner. Papers or rags mixed in with wood or coal may re­ sult in spontaneous heating. It is very possible that certain minor changes in con­ struction in your home are advisable as an aid to fire pre­ vention. Wood beams extending into chimney walls, for in-; stance, have started many fires. And adequate fire stops are all-important. Check over any exposed electric wiring^—dark days bring maximum demand for light, and heavy use of electric heating appliances. Don’t make amateur repairs yourself—bad wiring has caused many a serious fire; Your electrician will do it properly, and what little he charges is insignificant in the light of the fact it may save your home from destruction. Finally, go-through the house thordhghly,. and clean out accumulations of papers, magazines, discarded clothes, broken -furniture and other inflammable junk,. Get ready for winter now. It’s a little job that pays big dividends. mrnam H.ll I. MUI ifiB fa UNCLE SAM FINANCES FDR’S LIBRARY There were enough misguided members of Congress, fear­ ful o f the presidential dagger and loss of public spending funds, to Jiold out for the presidential library on the Roosevel ; estate, Hyde Park, that the $150,000 allowance was voted some days ago. Nothing less than the nerve of a monkey could be forced on a helpless public, than spending such a sum for private purposes. It is nothing more than spending that amount for a memorial to a living being, something even the monkey would not desire. To most all who have proven heroes or have reached fame as guaged by and with the appi ^val of pub lie assent, the memorial always followed death. In this case the leaders that used underhanded methods to get a public building for personal benefit of one, by the acion of cowed mem bers of the Democratic majority in, Congress, only feared tha such a memorial after leaving the White House, would be lack ing. If such a memorial had to be erected we know ofmo better place than the Roosevelt estate for it. If it is to contain the Roosevelt State papers, Washington, the seat of the government, is no place for them if they had to be housed with documents o:r Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Grant, McKinley and Wilson. Just what is left after Roosevelt sold a lot of so-called state papers, records from the White House to the Ndw York news paper syndicate last year for a cool $100,000, is hard to imagine. If we are to have the record of the doings and happenings of a lot of Communistic minded radicals like Hopkins, Ickes jerkins, Lewis, Cohen and Roosevelt kept for future reference Congress may have done the proper thing in providing a place for the mental output of this group in Hyde Park. It is better to have “ nuts” of the nation traveling in that direction than to Washington, Or has Mr. Roosevelt in mind that he might be “ the for­ gotten man” when present generations and those to follow are called upon to pay for his folly?

GERRON FORD SERVICE Phone 8 IlM IUlW HIUUiHIlWMHW IIIIMIIIHWUlMtllliUMMIIHIUMliW Cincinnati is beginning to show signs o f having the penant fever if it is not already in the making. The Reds hold a commanding position for first place but .there are nearly fifty games to play before the end o f the season. We were amused some days age to read that a Covington, Ky., church congregation desired to give a reception honoring jts pastor, A date was set and it happened to be ope when the Reds had a night game. N o­ body could-attend a reception with the Reds playing across the river. The date had to be changed and the min­ ister will get his reception this week while the Reds are playing in "Chi­ cago. Penant f^ver has Cincinnati and it is spreading all over parts of Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky. One o f the greatest joys o f living at this season o f the year is being in the midst o f the “ c.orn-on-the-pob" season. Strawberry shortcake has its place and finds many a slave to that delicacy but one is really puzzled in determining just which one o f the joys would be the hardest to give up. If Prof. Swollen is doing as good a job with his ag. class as. he is in pro­ ducing that toothsome Golden Bantam we get on market,, the boys are as­ sured o f a futpre, The Louisville, Ky.,' Courier-Journal in a caustic editorialgoes after Con­ gress for passing the Hatch bill.’ The paper being Democratic the criticism o f such a bill is interesting, It was designed to curb the use of WPA and relief funds for Democratic election purposes.. Sen. Barkley o f that state purchased his senate seat last year with federal funds for the unfortunate. An investigation proved the facts, hence the Hatch bill. Roosevelt did not sign the bill because he wanted to put feared an overthrow if he used his veto power. William J. Perriccclli, attorney for the New Deal NLRB became abusive to Xenia police when arrested on a wreckless driving, charge. He also gets to face a disorderly charge. Xenia is rather a small town to dare lay its hand on one o f the New Deal’s attorneys. The Cleveland News is weary o f the Communistic New Deal program and along with other metroploitan news­ papers have centered fire on Franklin D. Roosevelt, demanding that he an nounce his retirement at the end of the second term. Congress has turned about face and this o f course means the Democratic majority no longer will stand for dictatorship from the White House under threats. The News last week sent the fol­ lowing letter to Roosevelt °and also carried it across the first page: Dear Mr; "President: . You can start recovery at once, this summer of 1939. By one simple straightforward act. That is to announce in unmistak­ able words that you will not be a can­ didate for re-election. Our recovery is long overdue. Mil .lions are desperate for jobs. Thou- ands of business, factories ,,and stores are praying for better times before they have to give up. •In-Washington’s atmosphere, it is not easy for you to sep what magic your statement would work, You are surrounded by loyal men and by men who can continue in public power only if you remain president. They may try to be honest, but they cannot give you the national picture honestly. It Beents so clear out here, Where the automobiles and the machine tools and the lamb chops and the insurance policies come from. The very moment we feel we can count on the future, the people with' a little money will begin to spend it and the people with more money will begin to invest it. Men worried about their future never can run their business at capac­ ity. When they grow hopeful about their future, they start to produce more and hire more. Just like the man in the shop who grows hopeful nbout buying a house or a new refrig­ erator when he begins to think his job will last. There is no point in arguing here about why this is so. You can easily discover for yourself that it is so, People who distrust you and the people who fear you and, we believe, even the people to whom you are a hero all have doubt about their futures. All kinds o f people, for example, feol that the strongest beam in the American democratic structure is the two-term tradition for every presi­ dent, When you let doubt arise that you yourself feel the strength o f this tradition, you add to everyone’s un­ certainty about the American struct­ ure, Those who approve your acts >ecome uncertain along with those who believe you seek an American dic­ tatorship. Regardless o f their politics, average Americans also feel that the Ameri­ can system should work at its best today, as a shining light to $ ie coun­ tries where tyrants preach that de­ mocracy is a-1 failure. I f you, Mr. President, will permit • casual observation to be offered, we venture tha guess that millions o f Americans would rather see*an in­ ferior executive in the White House as your successor than -g iv e the world the impression that the American way had surrendered its tradition and in its place we now have a ‘Reader." We bo badly need confidence to go ahead' with our American destiny. When the average American’s con­ fidence returns, we will get recovery, better times, and jobs—and the new hope for life which only jobs will bring to discouraged men and women. You are the one man who can give U 5 this confidence. By your positive statement that you will not be presi­ dent after 1940. Respectfully, THE NEWS. Gov, Bicker has issued an order that state owned automobiles cannot be used for other than state business. He also gave warning that there must he no machines used to attend picnics or group meetings o f state employees. IIow different than under the Davey administration when state machines by the hundred cou)d ha found at any gathering o f state employees, even political meetings. But that was no worse than what happened in this county when state trucks were used to distribute political advertising in the last state campaign. Now our gov­ ernor rides over the state without a flock of motorcycles and state police cars with sirens screaming as if the fire department Was'on a run, The Democratic administrations ’ down in Washington and in Ohio cer tainly gave the liquor business a good hold. Complaint has been made that it is in evidence in most federal de­ partments even during business hours. ’In Ohio the Democrats found the Co­ lumbus penitentiary a good financial field for liquor bootlegging among prisoners and an upheaval came with the change ..in administrations.* Just recently an investigation at the Lon­ don prison farm developed that liquor had been and was being sold there to prisoners. Pay dirt has been found -at the London institution since the in­ vestigation was started a few days ago. No wonder prisoners want 'to break out, I The New Deal congress adjourned Saturday and left a lot o f men for­ gotten. The WPA list must be reduc­ ed over the country many thousands. Some 20,000 will be laid o ff now and about the same number next month. These men get around $10.50 net a f­ ter traveling expense is paid. The 130 hours a month is far from satisfactory if reports we get are correct. FDR made no suggestion that the 788 WPA office men aiTd bosses in Ohio take a cut in salary to keep more men on the job. These 788 WPA politicians are each one making from $1,200 to $8,000 a year, You WPAers being laid off should ask why the 788 politicians did not get a cut in salary? Some, time ago R. W. MacGregor visited down East and while there did a little observing. First he found it was almost impossible to purchase an American grown and cured ham. The reason given was the high cost. There was plenty o f foreign ham imported from Poland. He found, the market loaded with imported chicken. All this is a part o f the Roosevelt secret trade treaties with different foreign powers. It is also competition with American pork and chicken as well as beef and other farm products. You never hear) .Sec. Wallace discuss the competition the New Dealers have set up for the American farmer. Saturday the price of hogs in Chicago was the lowest' since June, 1934, and the fifth week for j continued slump in price. The drop this month is 31 per cent under the same month last year and 54 per cent under August, 1937. The break in the market last week brought lower prices for the beef feeders in the calf club last Friday. The CIO has continued to complain about the cost o f food for his union men and Mr, Roosevelt with his free trade treaty brings in foods from foreign nations to hold down the price the American farmer is entitled, to but cannot get. At the last minute the Roosevelt forces in the Senate, Saturday held up the bill for $1,300,000, due Ohio old age pensioners. The New Dealers are out to punish the state because Martin L. Davey would not jump at the crack of FDR’s whip. Gov. Chandler did not get on his knees to the Hyde Park squire and the Democratic voters in Kentucky walloped the Roosevelt can­ didate for governor in the Saturday primary, Thijt is just what is going to happen not only in Ohio but in most of the north, east and western states. It is the Ohio oid age pensioner that is out, Ohio taxpayers have paid the money and Washington will not pay what is due the state, The next con­ gress will be Republican and Ohio will get what is due her. One o f the most unusual political turns in the history o f the county has been the Y, S. post office situation when a first term official was announ­ ced as not being a candidate fo r re-ap- pointment and a Democrat at that.
