'Bender of Ohio thoroughly1discussed the influence of the Tennessesa Valley Authority on the tax structure in the area where it operates. He said,-'According to TVA’a own announce­ ment, power rates have been cut to its new customers by §4,- 180.000 annually. By ita own figures, it has displaced by pur­ chase of reservoir lands or purchase of private companies, $3,- 690.000 of local and state taxes, to say nothing of an annual $1,000,000 Federal tax loss. This amounts to robbing the tax "Peter to pay the power Pau l. , , Before the TVA, is over Ten­ nessee and affected TVA areas will be among the heaviest tax­ ed areas in the country.” Repercussions have already been heard from the South­ east, with local and state officials pointing out that loss of fax revenue resulting from-TVA acquisitions of once private property has caused an extremely serious financial situation. And it seems that this has only begun—the TVA goes farther and farther into business, and more and more properties are removed permanently from the tax roll. Apparently ever dol­ lar, and more, that TVA manages to cut from the electric bill goes on the tax bill. How does this benefit, anyone? The answer is plain— ft doesn’t, save those who have made political capital out of the TVA, or been placed on its gigantic payroll. All the rest o f us, individuals and business alike, lose.

This was in the days effuse "quisling,” derived from Major Quisling, Nazi under­ cover man in Norway wjho openjed the gates to the enemy, seems so much more expressive and forthright. “Quisling” denotes a traitor to his country, but of a parti­ cularly despicable kind in keeping with the whole Nazi system and philosophy. Many common nouns that have passed into our language, such as sandwich, bxougham, banting (to diet) ahd macadam and mackintosh, were derived from personages whose activities were either helpful or harmless to their fellow men. As such their names are permanently pVeserved in the language. This also promises to be the lot of Quisling,~but on ly because his nafne stands for one of the most execrable deeds in the history of civilized mankinds The term "fifth column”'has given rise to “sixth column” organizations .whose commendable object is to combat those who would emulate Quisling, and there has even been mention of a “seventh column” performing protective tasks of a special natufe. In a multitude of "columns” there may be confusion. But nobody need be in doubt as to what “quisling” means* It is packed full of sinister significance to all free peoples. For That reason they should keejp the word in circulation, never forgetting for what it stands until the ppisonous thing itself is cast out, root and branch, and placed beyond -possibility o f working further evil,—Philadelphia Inquirer. „ ' THE KNOX-STIMSON APPOINTMENT Despite the high character of the two men, we belfeve the appointment of Frank*Knox;.and Henry Stimson to .the secre- .tarys of navy and war will not be good for the county. It isn’t a question of character or capability but runs m icn deeper to the very fundamentals of our democratic processes. The nation is in a war crisis. What shall be our war policy overshadows all other issues. A national election is coming on. A clearcut verdict from the people on war policy should be written through the normal functioning., of our two-party sys­ tem. Never has it been more vital that such an expression be recorded. In the face of that two Republicans are named to the jobs having most to do with war. That muddies the water. That makes it possible for the Administration in power to claim that, whatever the wai’ policy, it bears the indorsement of men high Both in the Administration and the councils of the opposition. That short-circuits the processes of .democracy' at a time when they should operate most freely. It tends toward confusion when clarity is so greatly needed. ■ ■ The appointments evidence too much of political strategy when a nation in grave danger is entitled to frankness. , Messrs, Knox and Stimson do not typify a coalition in the true sense of the word. They would not represent the com­ posite view of the, Republican Party toward the war problem. Both are of the same school of belligerence that was expressed by Mr. Roosevelt in his Charlottesville speech and other utter­ ances. Mr. Roosevelt would be their boss and we fear that, the tendency of the three would b.e more and more warlike despite our admitted unpreparedness. In so far as that would be their trend—rand'in so far as the trend could be claimed to represent Solidarity of national sentimen^—a false picture would be pre­ sented. What we need, at this time of all times, is anything but a strange and confusing form of leadership at the top, No doubt should be raised in the voter’s mind as to the party of his choice when he, goes to the booth in November, / —Columbus Citizen UNITY AND STRENGTH Every American wants righteousness and freedom to en­ dure. What now shall be the decisions of the United States? In seven years Herr Hitler has directed his nation in just one path—the preparation for war—and every day the war clouds have built up steadily and so openly that any one who eared to look could read. Here Mr. Roosevelt, who came into power almost at the same moment as Hitler, after five moiiths of brilliant recovery, in 1933, turned about face and adopted the policies which have since been named the New Deal. What policies they were! Through antagonism toward Business and industry, they produced- idle factories and idle Inert, with initiative destroyed and machinery rusting away. And so, with the world aflame, we face the future with our people disorganized, and a nation divided against itself as seldom before in our history. I t is because the nation has seen billion after billion squand­ ered in successive failures with agriculture, industry, and labor that it 1 b shocked and angry to find even the nation’s defense , a similar failure. , . . . But our situation is not hopeless. Under a leader trusted by everyone, our defenses could be rebuilt, the effects of seven years of incompetent government overcome. We have the ingenuity, the patriotism, the research and manufacturing ability to make America impregnable; but we can do these things only with an organisation sound at the lop and trusted by every element of the people, Without unity we are without strength. With unity and Strength we can defend and perpetuate freedom and repre­ sentative government. 4 ‘ It seems that America must choose.- I f ‘the nation wants £o follow the failures of the last seven years with the same failures in defense; if we are satisfied to have the fifty billion o f d«bt increased to a hundred billions, with as little show for it; If after all this we find ourselves in a terrible and losing war, it will only justify the contempt of Hitler and Mussolini tw democracy and its methods. . Peace and safety lie m building our defenses rapidly and training was a fantastic suggestion from a mind in intellectual retreat/’ The sarcastic remark can be heard on the streets, in the hotels and around the convention hall day and night. Rpberfc, McCormick, publisher of the Chicago Tribune expressed his views on compulsory military training for 18 year old youths as “insanity and men bring the news to the convention that a large part' of the Democratic congress is against the Roosevelt plan personally and ijear the result politi­ cally if. adopted, hut of course must follow orders like any good soldier. of the 18th century when Philly was the ckpitol of the United States.

Pepper pot is a mystery dish if we ever found one. It’s ingredients contain tripe, veal, potatoes, .celery, sweet marjoram, ba­ sil, thyme, potherbs seasoning and lit­ tle round suet dumplings. If you are interested in scrapple, it has some of the- same ingredients jus found in souse, a butchering time dish on the farm in many homes. Scrapple con­ tains' corn meal and pork, mostly trimmings, , The mixture is cooked and coded and fried in fat then sliced down. You will never know just whai it is like until you taste it. It is said the Republican national convention’for the first time has bar red the sale of hot-dog sandwiches around the hall due to the noise of the vendetr*. There is a refreshment Stand in the building, a 'cafeteria and a soft drink station, and nothing else strong er. Out in the city everything in tlur drink line is sold which can be found in Ohio. A Chicago delegate was much vexed and made some noise when he found he could not get.hard drinks inside the auditorium. He predicted the Democrats at their Chicago con­ vention would throw the convention wide open for everything. Philadelphia has numerous hotels, large and-small and it, tests the capa­ city of all the hotels to care for the delegates and visitors' in the city for any national convention. The largest delegations are quartered in the Ben­ jamin Franklin hotel, Ohio being in­ cluded in this list. The various candi­ dates have hotel headquarters. The Taft headquarter^ are in the Benja­ min Franklin hotel. Sen, Bridges of New Hampshir^and Frank E. Gannett of New YorEfare at the same hotel. Nelson Sparks, former Xcnian and one time mayor of Akron has charge of the Gannett headquarters. Thomas E. Dewey, New York, has headquarters at the Walton Hotel, The Bellcvue-Stratford has a list of not­ ables; Dr. Glen Frank, Gen. Charles G. Dawes, Gov, John W. Bricker, Col, Frank Knox and Gov. Arthur H.

It seems they are the favorite dish of a great many mo ■»*Republicans than was expected. One G- O. P. Politico, when told the lamb chops were alt gone changed his ordert o steak and told the waitress,, “Okay,'hut don’t forget to save some humble pie for the Democrat* this, fall,” The Wait­ ress haughtily sniffed. The most striking editorial comment on the Knox-Stimson appointments is taken from the Denver Colo., Post;— “It is plainly a political maneuver intended to insure the President’s re- election for a third term, but it may develop into a political boomerang. The President, in effect, told Demo­ crats and the rest of the American people that out of all the millions of Democrats he cannot find two who are capable of running the Nation’s most vital defense departments in a period of emergency. He gives the G. O. P. a chance to argue that if Republican talents are needed to carry out the defense program and save the country, it would be better for the Nation to have an entire Republican Adminis­ tration.” Democratjd and New Deal leaders are worried and cannot understand why the youth of tho land does not walk up and enlist. \n the army and navy, It was admitted in the Satur­ day session of the Senate that indica tions point to the fact that the nation will not reach 280,000 men for the army when Congress has set aside more than a billion dollars to increase the army 95,000. It is admitted that the only way for the defense program to be carried out is by compulsory draft. Democratic leaders fear the draft due to the November election, )ht Roosevelt is convincing them that if we do not support England, Hitler and Mussolini will come over here, Roosevelt is determined to fight Hit­ ler and, to save his party, and put •fflttently, with the full <*o-oper*tion of agriculture, industry snd labor; in stopping tbs class war, the hatred and distrust A6 busily Incited for the last seven year; and in presenting to any enemy a front united in fact as well as in appearance. —FarmJournal 'GAMatlNG ON TUB HIGH SEAS” with Wayne Morris and Jana Wyman opens at tha Blate Theater, Thursday, Juna 27, Springfield, Ohio, playing through Saturday, Opening with a pronto Saturday ^ W aud pJayJn* four days “THE GHOST RftBAKffltS” star­ ring Rah Hop* snd Paulatta Goddard, the binuts an Knox and Stinuon, hath war advoeatara.
