Inter*sftn# W o r y ConnecM With • " Golden Lamb Hotel One of the unique celebration* was the unveiling of a bra** plaque and dedication in recognition of the ‘125 years the Golden Lamb Hotel has been n constant operation In Lebanon, O., Saturday. Being on a direct line between Cin­ cinnati, a d Columbus and-Cleveland on what is now route forty-two, Leb­ anon- had a, prominent place in public travel hack, in the stage coach days ; ust as the town has today-with the, bus and-,motor oar- Friday evening. Host Robert Jones entertained a group .of Miami Valley newspapermen with Attorney Dean Stadley as toastmaater. Maoyinterest- ing incidents in connection with the history Of the hotel were revealed to the-visitors. ” A special program With Gov. John W. Brickerand Ex. GovemOr Myers Y. Cooper marked- the Saturday cele-; bration in which the local t t A. R. sponsored the unveiling of the plaque. Some months ago a national maga­ zine parried a story of the visit of Charles Dickens, English .novelist, and ai* visit tp Lebanon back in 1842. The point of the story that caused Leb- anonitos tolook up their history was ;hat Dickens after a long ride with his wife from Cincinnati by stage* spent the night in what is now the Golden Lamb. The story related a controversy be­ tween j the hotel owner and Dickens; the latter being, vexed because he could not get brandy with his meal, The hotel was “ dry” in those days Just as it is today. The argument; so th e story relates, reached the stage Where Dickens is said to have floored the proprietor, William Wiles. Publication of-the story brought Leb­ anon to the front and writers for all sorts of journals began to dig into the past, p e p - Stanley told •the- news­ papermen present last Friday night the inside of the event and how the national magazine had overdrawn the story. , ’ Lebanon citizens were quick to get, the' facts before the people and know­ ing that Wiles was huried in the local cemetery upon investigation found Wiles had died in 1837, five years be­ fore the visit of Dickens in 1842. This refuted the first story- about the con­ duct of Dickens. The Golden La»h was erected, by an uncle o f lW c c rw in , an early gov­ ernor o f Ohio. I t has had many not­ able, guests/ At one time Henry Clay stopped on his way from Kentucy to Washington, accompanied by his daughter, who was taken ill, died, and was buried in Lebanon cemetery. I t is to be presumed that Charles: Dickens as well as other notables of his day passed through Cedarvilie, or Newport ns it wasUcnown on the stage coach route in those days. The tavern here was located on the site of the Carnegie Library. What early history on special events marked the opera­ tion of that house has never been handed down through’the generations. One thing is known that horses for the stage route were quartered here where change was made following the trip from Lebanon. It usually required the full-day to make about thirty miles back in th£ time of the stage coach. jMAKING-Td® ^ K tF F WORK FORp i® FARMER Dudley A* White Will Be Honored by the court.

PdMtics so permeated Relief and W-P.A. in the- 1933 and 1938 cam­ paigns, 'and the Relief and W.P.A. rolfo were »0 heavily increased just before each election, m to constitute su*h c nitionsi scandal that a Demo­ cratic Congress was forced last year to previde in the appropriations for jUtfef «nd W.P.A. that the money ap- prgydftfed Should' he spent tach month on a pro rata basis.

The Industrial pro­ ducer can and does Capitalize on the protection the high tariff offers him while the farm producer realize? but little benefit from thf import duties on his commodities except on those in­ frequent occasions when his produc­ tion is. down to t o’- below home de­ mands. In practice, from 8£| to 9Q# of the time, the. farmer is ^changing his wheat and corn and ccfton, a t a- value set by world wide '{§mpqtition, for; textiles and steel and c^al whose price it set a t an artificial Morncstic level,: So long as this drcunfitt|ince' obtains, it iq eyident that ogricflture must op- eratcTat a disadvantage., It is equally evident that, in com­ mon fairness;, the fttftner is over­ whelmingly entitled tqvtha benefit of the tariff on that .part of-his produc­ tion going into domestic consumption. What he produces in pxsess of the sup­ ply fo r home market! he must, of course, be content to. take what it may be worth for export o£ storage- But economic and social equity demand that-Jthe minor proportion going into export shall not determine the price of his entire output a? long as he is forced to satisfy his rt|eds and wants ia a market a t an high’artificial stan­ dard. „ ’ ‘ ' * There has to be a way to overcome the present handicap, ^A. suggestion follows of a means to this desired, end. In formulating this plan we do not necessarily, endorse 'tariff-making. as desirable economicmachinery. Neither is ..any endorsement intended of- pre­ sent rates. We are merely taking the attitude that witii .Industry enjoying an advantageous position behind high tariff barriers, farmers have a. better. Opportunity of improving their status by making that' same tariff work for them than by attempting- to change ’the whole tariff structure. As for rates, first see how much benefit is in-the present ones, then let future ones depend oft experiumte, and. re search. - I t Is submitted-th4b-tbe following purposes to he simpidfe,jc ss expensive and more effectfim^taM eithar the cur­ ren t A g ricu itu ta rA |pb^ j ^ . ; ^ ed Certificate ' F l a n - r a n made to .serve the purposes of conservation as well as the present regime, and yet arouse less antagonism among pro? ducers for, in.addition to allowing the farmer the exercise of full freedom as to participation, he would, after choosing to cooperate, be irked by a minimum of supervision ahd'control. The plan, in brief, is simply to sub­ sidize exports to the amount of the import duties on the respective com­ modities. For example, exporters of wheat would be paid .a bonus of 42% on eafcli bushel shipped out. They Would naturally advance their bids ac­ cordingly, and domestic processors Would be forced to meet the exporters* quotations, which would in turn mean a corresponding increase to the pro ducer, * Funds to pay the exporting sub­ sidy would be provided,by a tax col­ lected a t the point of the initial sale This tax would be calculated from the amount of the surplus of the particu­ lar commodity, and by the degree of DUDLEY A.

Herbert Bigelow, Cincinnati, preach er-politician, candidate bn the Demo­ cratic ticket, whose old-age pension plan was soundly defeated last fall, is out with a modified pension plan which provides-for a two per cent tax on alt real estate valued a t $20,000 an acre or more. Persons 65 years and older would be given $50 monthly if single and mar­ ried couples $80 monthly. Those be­ tween 60 and 65 would only be given proportionate amounts of what ever is left in the pension fund after those in the first bracket are paid. The same method of computing “land a t.$ 20,- 000” will remain as in the defeated plan, it may include one or a dozen pieces of property to make the acre. This would be in addition to present real estate taxes* Bigelowmust secure 249,999 or more signature* to his petitions to get his pension plan on the ballftt. Changes made in the proposal have only been made ,to catch more voters. Proper­ ty owners can only protect themselves by increasing rente.

We submit that this suggests a plan Which will be effective and compara­ tively easy and economical of adminis­ tration; and one which 'by requiring the producer to provide his own nances, ahd by using the same ced nomic mechanics that have beep use ; jy others all these^ years, will banish the suspicion, in rural, minds quite a« much as in others, that the farmer needs must be the special ward of paternalism and to be the permanent recipient of doles from the federal treasury* Clarence B.
