W. Wharburton, State Director Dr. ,H. C. Ramsower and Executive Secretary o f the Farm Bureau M. D. Lincoln. Some o f the , oratorical high spots were: Gov. Bricker—“ Ohio is fortunate, in having the stability o f the rural people; they think carefully and sane- lyand stand firmly on the experi­ ences o f the past. The proposed Bigelow pension is the present's biggest; public problem and if passed would cost Ohio taxpayers $311,000,- 000 anmlally-r-twice. what the state spends now.” Dr. Ramsower—“ There should be three extension agents in every one o f the state’s 88 counties. This would furnish an agent for every 100 farm homes-and this additional lead­ ership would greatly help in planning farm programs from the bottom up, • as they should be.” Sec’y Lincoln—“ Farmers still re­ ceive only half the income .to which their numbers entitle them. Farmers make up 24 per cent o f the popula­ tion and get Only 12 per cent o f the . money. Increasing demands for co­ operative medicine and'financing are being made by farmers.” The state- wide campaign launched , by. the Veterans of-Foreign Wars |n Ohio to-build up-sentiment against American participation in the Europe- „ an -wav has been officially endorsed by Governor Bricker in a formal pro­ clamation designating October 29 to November 4 as “ Newtrality Week” in Ohio. ■■ • “ The vast majority o f the citizens o f the United States is opposed to any foreign policy which would en­ danger our neutrality and .force us into an offensive war on foreign soil* All citizens' o f this state are urged to join with the Veterans o f FoFreign Wars in. its program to arouse the people to a determination to remain at peace,’ ’ the Governor said/ The State Tax Commission report­ ed a sharp reduction in the depart­ ment’s operating costs and personnel and a substantial increase-in the a- mount o f state revenue collected in his official- statement filed October 1 and co -oring the first nine months' period o f this year.

Two hundred spotted bass,* all about six inches in length, were recently shipped-by airplane by the State Con­ servation Division from Buckeye Lake to Capetown, Africa. A fter experi­ menting, the Capetown authorities de­ cided that Ohio fish ate most suitable fo r propagation purposes in the waters o f that area. Progress is being made on a cir ricultiih on conservation education for the Ohio public schools, the work having been undertaken as a joint project o f the Ohio Department of Education and the Ohio Division o f Conservation and Natural Resources. The new plan will make conservation a part o f the regular school cur­ riculum and gives definite assurance that the information, so greatly need­ ed in making the on-coming genera tiott conservation minded, will reach all o f the school children, at least in the elementary grades. A large state­ wide committee o f prominent edu­ cators at a meeting held in Columbus October 18, endorsed the plan. . i ..-.....niiiii^. For Sale—Two Oxford bucks.

The Republican State Central Com­ mittee was the first political party in the state to openly oppose both Bige­ low old age pension plan and the initiative p iposal. Roth are changes in the constitution o f the .state and the party county organizations are to be guilded by the action o f the state body. The action wa$ unanimous. Senator Robert A.; Taft was given an endorsement fo r p/esident and the administration o f Gov( John W. Brick' er endorsed along with his campaign next year for a second term. A committee o f five was chosen to select second presidential choice as a pledge for delegates.and select eight candidates for defegates-at-large. Chairman Ed Schorr/heads the com­ mittee, with J. M. Lihton, Columbus, P. Lincoln Mitchell, Cincinnati, Nolan Bogg, Toledo, and IVtargaret Baker, Springfield. | The committee hol|s to the view that the Bigelow old ajge’pension plan would cripple the state’s welfare a- gencies; it discriminates against farmers, their wives, housewives, pro­ fessional men and women, and ordi­ nary labor, such as many men,must have that is not clalsed as factory workers; it would increase unemploy­ ment, double real estate taxes, drive industry from the strite, and place a lien on every tax dol|ar for j schools, municipal, township axjd county activ­ ities. A resolution was past opposing the reduction,of initiated proposals from 108,000 signatures now in the constitution to be secured from half o f the counties in the state to 50,- 000, all o f which can be secured in any one or more counties* The committee did gjndorse the pre­ sent old age pension System1that .is now paying an average^o f $23 a month to those ip need. The cpmmittee urged support o f the Bricker |ivilservice law passed by the lost legislature' that permitted the administration to drop several thousand useless - state em­ ployees put on the pay roll hy former Governor Martin L, Davey. To sup­ port this law voters must vote “ No” on the referendum ballot - in Nov­ ember. The same “ No” is ’required to defeat both Bigelow, proposals. Democrats Duck Referendum Vote E. H. Hanefeld called the Demo­ cratic State Central Committee, com­ posed o f 4 1 men and Women, to meet Wednesday in a Columbus hotel, to take action against the Bigelow a- mendment to the constitution, but only 18 o f the 44 members appeared Between the Sawyer and Davey fac­ tions and the ' announcement that Bigelow is to be a candidate fo t gov­ ernor n e x t,year, regardless o f the fact that he is a Socialist Single Tax­ er, no action was taken even 'favor­ ing the law.- It is contended the party is divided at present into four fac­ tions.
