Cong. White ,comes from a rural county and has a fine record while serving in Congress. He. is a conservative and has the views and interests of a majority of the people of the state. He has never given approval of the Urban proposal that the cities of the state should control the counties. ^ Mayor Burton has the city complex. Months, ago the Herald took issue with the mayor’s demand of Gov, Bricker that he call an immediate session of the state legislature to care for what he termed a critical situation in Cleveland. The Gov­ ernor did not become stampeded and authorized his own in­ vestigation which proved, the mayor had greatly magnified the situation. The Governor later hackthe endorsement of the business, and civic organizations in the city. This left the Mayor out on the end of a limb. Republican voters must choose between the two candi dates. The issue is plain, Cong. White is a resident of a rural county and has the viewpoint of the same kind of people we have, in Greene county. Mayor Burton has advocated in the past a reduced state legislature with the cities having more representation. He should not have the support of Greene Gounty. i While in Washington we asked for report on importations of pork un­ der trade agreements and what effort the European war had on the hog market. Knowing that Poland had ijeen shipped great quantities of cook­ ed and cured pork before the war we found there was nothing of conse­ quence being imported from that country in the pork line and probably would, not be for some months to come. It was intimated two weeks ago that with pork importations cut : off there was no reason why the-price’ of hogs should not go up here. The increase in hog prices this week bears out earlier predictions. The lowest hog prices were back in the days Polish cured meat was being import­ ed in competition with American hog feeders. ~ WHEN WILL WE ENTER EUROPEAN WAR? The question that is uppermost in the minds of the people is, “When Will We TEn^er the European War?” The average citizen isjust as much perplexed as is official Washington. You can ask any member of Congress no matter what the. politica’ belief the-same question and he will not give you a definite answer because the destiny under the present New Dea authority is invested in one man, Franklin D. Roosevelt. Con­ gress the past seven years gave the Executive so much power this body no longer is certain where its authority starts or ends, As members discuss this question off record among them selves Democratic members show more concern than do the Republicans for'the older members have not yet forgotten the Wilson campaign pledge, “He Kept Us Out of War” , and with In sixty days after election we plunged in head first. In view of the attitude of Roosevelt towards England and France and the visit last summer of King George and the Queen, the recent unexplained “ fishing trip” in, southern waters as to who Roosevelt met representing England” , the speech of Ambassador Cromwell in Canada some weeks ago and the visit of Prime, Minister MacKenzie to Warm Springs this week, all 'belie the statement of Roosevelt and his peace program. The off record. sentiment in Washington circles where‘Roosevelt each month demands more money for war supplies,, is that we would be directly engaged in the war ’ right now if it were not for the coming Democratic national convention in June in Chicago. Roosevelt’s speech Saturday night on the. air was a slimy/slippery evasion of what expect. It is generally conceded that a vote for Roosevelt or any New Deal candidate, is approval of our entering~the war to make good Roosevelt’s promise last summer to King George, ‘VohnnyApollo? In* pre*» release boosllng the WPA In various cities and towns we notice that the Modem Santa Claus had Those on the air hurt Saturday night given the village a new "tool house* no doubt heard the Roosevelt appeal Village officials are trying to locate for New Deal support, a genuine earn- just who received the structure as paign speech. The most striking state- none was ever erected here, ment was the Roosevelt utterance that every mpjor public scandal in this Americans may not approve of the German method of warfare hut we witnessed a continued procession of "interested ^people in visiting a Ger­ man interned ship in the Miami, Fla,, harbor. Fifty German sailors were in­ terned with the freighter, Aiauca, when a British cruiser gave them chase in the southern harbor. The Germans had plenty of company for some 100,000 Americans made a trip to see the boat and the sailors. Only 23 of the regular crew could go ashore, but all had to be on board at night, The captain was Frederich Stengler who of course: could travel to Wash ington and New York. Several'of the sailors took up the study of the Eng lish language. The crew must remain in harbor for the duration of the Eu­ ropean war. ' Uncle Sam is in the banking busi ness in partnership with some twenty other Pan-American countries. The ‘‘big push” .was staged last week in Washington at the Pan-American building, the capitol building for this group. We have never been able to find out just the purpose of this coun­ try going in partnership with our neighbors in the banking business but like a lot of other New Deal propo sals we doubt if anyone can give good explanation. We have our money invested in this joint bank and the other twenty nations, one vote to each hation, will tell us what to do. It is a fine arrangement for these smaller nations,. the most of whom owe us moiiey now. The Cincinnati Times-Ster issued one o f th* largest editions ever put out in Ohio, Thursday evening.

We are sure our lady readers who admire orchids would go into ecstacy if they could have viewed a half hundred different kinds arid colors growing as they do wild in the tropics. This bloom grows from a fungus growth that is found on trees in the south American coun­ tries. The fungus Was shipped to Washington in air tight containers kept at even temperature and clumps wired to the various tropical trees in the court. No exhibit of this flower ever showed ns many different colors and combinations we were informed, Last week we mentioned the defeat in the lower branch of Congrt.« by a combination of ^Republicans and 'Conservative Democrats, of a New Deal measure to change the status of impeachment of federal judges, - It was proposed to take this power from both House and Senate and place it in the hands ef three judges to be ap­ pointed by the Chief Justicfe. The {rick of the plan which if the bill passed was to h'ave Roosevelt rgmove^Chief Justice Hughes, who that week cele­ brated his 78th birthday, and name Attorney General Jackson in his stead. Jackson is charged by both Re­ publicans and conservative Demo­ crats as- being Communistic, In fact the week previous he nulled the in­ dictments against seventeen Detroit Cemmupistics where the evidence had been gathered.by the Federal Bureau under Hoover. Many of the number were not even citizens of this country and the department had no trouble in getting indictments before a federal grand jury. It was fortunate that enough members of Congress from both political parties defeated the New Deal Communistic plan.

That the self-styled daddy of the New Deal might be short on memory that his own administration has cov­ ered up more than, one scandal and that the public may have some insight we take from the Congressional Re­ cord, government publication, a review of the cotton scandal, We sat in the Senate chamber and heard Sen. Me­ Kellar, Tenn., Dem., deliver a scath­ ing attack on the cotton AAA crowd using public funds to gamble in- the cotton market. The bill was for five million dollars to coyer losses. (Page 6294 Cong. Record;) In all, i f we read McKellar’s statements correct the cot­ ton crowd today, has lost $139,000,- 000 in public funds dealing in cotton, MeKellar brings to light (Page 6296) that an item of $841,000 in­ terest charge file benefit of which went to a company' named by the Senator, which had.' what he charg­ ed was a fraudulent membership Sen, Ellender, Louisiana, enters the discussion to defend the. cotton deal (Page 6296), The name of E. F, Creek- more, New Orleans, was mentioned as manager of A.C.C.A. at a salary of $75,000 .annually until congress made him reduce it to $35,000 and effort was made to lower it to $17,600 but this failed and he receives the $35,000 for managing the cooperative which is nothing more in the world but merchandising firm which Mr. Creek- more controlled entirely. (Statement of MeKellar.) MeKellar continues: “ I am talking about fraud; I am talking about dis­ honesty; I am talking about .robbing the government and, robbing the farm ers of the South, and I think the Senate ought to be very much more interested in that right now than in chasing rabbits. Again, Mr, Greek- more got the Farm Credit Administra­ tion to wave the government’s first lien on the cotton, so he could borrow money from New York banks at and 11-16 percent Interest, Mis. Creek- more loaned the money to cooperative organizations at 2 per cent. Did he divide with the farmers? Oh, no, not a thin dime. (Page 6296). Sen. MeKellar’ reads a list of Co­ operative -cotton companies that bor­ rowed money, some of them bank­ rupt at the time. There was about twelve that had’ loans from $175,000 to $800,000 each. MeKellar states these organizations didlnot get these various sums but the A.C.CA. did and co-op insolvent stock was put up as security MeKellar Continues (Page 6297)—I never had a particle of doubt about the American Cotton Cooperative As­ sociation being insolvent. I protested against that loah. It was a palpable fraud. It was dishonest. It was cor­ rupt. It was nothing more or less than stealing from the American govern­ ment. That was the third item of fraud. - i After much debate between McKeller and. Ellender; the former stated that Creekmore sold 6,000,000 bales of the surplus crop for $3,700,000. Think of it! That was the fourth fraud. Me­ Kellar in his fifth charge said 6,000,- 000 more bales of cotton were sold for $1,800,000., When MeKellar. took up’ the seed loan plan he termed it the “ mangy” deal of all, especially as to how it was operated and how cotton growers were treated, (Page 6298). Taking from the records’ MeKellar picked out a loan amounting, to $51.31, on one bale. Deductions, advance, $6.59 and interest 60c; Interest, 59c, Insurance, $1.30; storage $4.65, charges other than seasonal—nobody under heaven knows what they are, $1.40; member­ ship fee iri A. C. C. A., $6. This loan was to a poor colored man and 1 do not know whether he could read but he had 50c more de­ ducted to pay ifor the Association newspaper that was gotten out at government expense. Interest paid out on freight, storage* etc., 40c, or a total of $19.34. No commission was charged but they did charge hint 51e« -more as interest because they did hot get it soon enough. (Page 6299). All these charges were taken out of a bale-of cotton at $51.31 and at this point Sen. MeKellar asked consent, which was granted, to have a table he had prepared printed in the Record and which can be foUnd on page 6299. (Page 6300) McKeliar—I do not think Albert B. Fall, who took a bribe of $100,060 for sale of oil lands, com­ mitted a greater Wrong than jMr. Creekmore has committed against the farmers^of the Nation and against the Government of the United States . . . 1 He has handled over $200,000,000 i which the government has lost tinder his management and control; and yet after all these frauds liave ijeen com­ mitted, both upon the farmer ahd up­ on the government, he now comes back here asking to open hi* accounts of 10>years ago to get carrying Charges and cost of operation from August 1 to the close of the cotton season.
