CEDARVILLE, OHIO, FRIDAY, JULY 5, 1940 PRICE, IL50 A YEAR UIDHtltlilftC III I ln T T t l f l iV id IR WAStftNBTON By CLARENCE J. BROWN Member o f Congress, Seventh Ohio District The Republican National Gonven- tiqn, meeting at Philadelphia, conclud ad its labors late last Friday after- noon with the nomination o f Wendell L. Willkie, o f Indiana and New York, fo r President, and United States Sena­ tor Charles L . MeNary, o f Oregon, for Vice President. Senator Robert' A Taft, o f Ohio, was the strongest eon. tender against Mr. Willkie fo r the Presidential nomination. Paring cer­ tain stages o f the balloting the nom­ ination o f Senator Taft appeared like­ ly. However, when Michigan ahd -Pennsylvania threw their, support to WiUkie on the sixth ballot, the fight was over; and Governor Bricker, as head o f the Ohio delegation, moved to make the nomination o f Wendell L. Willkie unanimous. Senator Taft inv- nSediately telephoned Mr. WiUkie, ex­ tended his congratulations, and pledg­ ed his loyal support in the coming campaign. COURT NEWS Here in Washington, where New Dealers and Democrats abound, it is the general concensus o f opinion that the nomination o f Wendell L.'Willkie fo r President on the Republican ticket means that the coming campaign will be a heated one, with the fipal result in doubt,. WiUkie is a clever, force­ ful campaigner, with a charm and personality that gains him the friend­ ship and support; o f those with.Whom he comes in contact. A hard, hitter and a phrase-maker, ft is claimed by- . many, that Willkie will prove to be a more colorful campaigner thanJRoose- velt. Willkie’a running mate, Charles L. MeNary o f Oregon, Republican Floor Leader o f the Senate has long been known for his political sagacity and adroitness He is' just the type o f an individual 'to best fit in as - a mate to WiUkie on a political team. !............................... mi .....m«H.miimiinlMmmmm DIVORCE SUIT Charging gross neglect o f duty, Janis Hartsook asks a divorce from Frederick Hartsook in the only suit filed in common pleas court this week.

Cable, executrix o f the estate o f Edwin S. Kelly, late o f Yel­ low Springs. Robert Milburn, administrator o f the estate o f Elizabeth Milburn, late o f Xenia. , Willia'm Harry Hoverstick, executor o f the estate o f Emma J. Hoverstick, late o f Xenia, Speakipg o f Roosevelt: While the general public seems firmly convinced that President Roosevelt will seek re­ nomination and a third term as Presi­ dent,'there are a number o f .the wise bid political beads in Washington who are firmly convinced ‘ that, when the Democratic Conventipn -.meets on the 15th o f July, Mr. Roosevelt will re­ fu se the nomination. In fact, rumor Ik around that F. D. R. has already informed some o f his confidantes that he will not accept re-nomination, but will, instead,, throw his support tq Secretary o f State Hull. The Presi­ dent's reason fo r mot. making an­ nouncement o f his plans at this time ia said to be based upon the delicacy o f the international situation. Some political seers freely predict that Hull cannot defeat Willkie; and that the surprise, .nomination o f Willkie, may cause Mr. Roosevelt to change his mind and-run fo r a third ,term That Mr, Willkie’s nomination.by the Re­ publican Convention will cause addi­ tional pressure to be put on Roose­ velt to run, cannot be questioned. Congress resumes its labors Monday and will remain in session until July 12th or 13th; when adjournment will be taken fo r the week o f the Demo­ cratic National Convention, beginning July 15th. „ It is reported that the Hatch bill, further restricting the po­ litical activities o f Governmental em- ploves, contributions to campaign funds, etc., will soon be brought up fo r a- vote in the .House. The Hatch bill passed the Senate several months agp, but has been held tip in the House through action o f the Judiciary and Rules Committees, Recently both Com­ mittees agreed to permit the bill to be voted upon. The rumor that President Roose­ velt will ask Congress for an addi­ tional appropriation o f approximately five billion dollars fo r enlarging the N a t i o n a l Defense program, has brought a rather mixed reaction on Capital Hill, It is being pointed out by some o f the National leaders that Congress has already appropriated more than five billion dollars, for di­ rect National Defense purposes and has authorised appropriations o f four billion dollars additional for the en­ largement' o f the Navy as a part o f the National Defense progre n. Also that the amounts already appropriat­ ed and authorised are as much as can b* spent within the next year and a half to two years, and that any addi­ tional appropriation made at this time could not bo expanded for National Defense purposes for many months to come without waste and extravagance. That this last Presidential request, if it is. made, for huge appropriations will be studied carefully before Con­ gressional action Is taken, is certain, WNDB*MSD]reldlNOR OPERATION Mr. J, E.

Walter Huffman Served Under Wendell Willkie When Wendell Willkie was receiving the votes in the Republican nations convention in Philadelphia last week. Walter Huffman o f thiB place, just wondered if it was not the same Will­ kie he-knew in service during the World W a rf Mr, Huffman hunted up some war pictures taken in camp at Louisville and over in France and soon fouad a resemblance o f the man who then was hfs lieutenant and now the Re­ publican nominee fo r president. Mr, HUffmaU has much praise for “ Lieut." Willkie who was known in camp in Louisville and in France as an excellent officer, one very con­ siderate o f hi* men. He was firm and insistent on orders being followed to the letter but he never was gruff a t any time. Mr. Huffman says if his company was ih. headquarters during bad weather “ Lieut." Willkie would dis­ cuss important events in connection with the service or give an informal lecture on some interesting topic. He was regaried a fine student and reader on a number o f subject*. The Republican candidate will make hi^ official acceptance speech at fyis old home in Ellwood, Ind., from the school house steps.

The Columbus weather man says that it rained 20 o f 30 days in the month in this section while in the northern part o f Ohio around Lorain it rained every day o f the month. We notice in crossing the state and in parts o f Pennsylvania and Mary­ land the corn crop is very irregular and a large percent has been cultivai ed but once. Many farmers every­ where -have had to-.plant the crop twice which means a late crop. In conversation with residents qf Texas and Oklahoma, we find the wheat crop in these states was not good due to an excess of rain, Also the severe winter killed much o f it which was weak due to the exceeding­ ly dry fall after seeding. Col. Black Issues Highway Warning Exclaiming that the Highway Patrol will have more than they can handle with the heavy Fourth o f July traffic, Colonel Lynn Black, superintendent o f the Ohio State Highway Patrol, Mon­ day denounced the use o f fireworks from moving vehicles on the( Ohio highways. Cowardly annoyance o f motorists and pedestrians by tossing firecrack­ ers into or near autos and on or near pedestrians is reckless, disregard of life and limb, Black emphasized. Citing that the Fourth o f July traf­ fic and fireworks casualities are peren­ nially high, he declared that drivers, passengers and pedestrians who play with fireworks are dual hazards not to be tolerated.. Someone may be in- , ured by a recklessly tossed firecrack­ er. Every auto driver owes his fellow- men undivided attention to his driv­ ing. Passengers and pedestrians, like­ wise should respect the driver’s re­ sponsibility. Scaring unsuspecting perons by ex­ plosions is by no means o f the humor­ ous nature, he stated. Nervous and jigh strung persons may be seriously shocked, lose control, and death, in­ jury or both bo the price o f a dastard­ ly prank. Charleston To Have Wet'Dry Election South Charleston and Madison town­ ship will have a wet and dry election n November, the first in neatly 25 years, if plans o f the W.

Small Colleges In1Ohio A Fine Investment In one o f his “ Today’s Talks" re­ cently, George Matthew Adams paid ;ribute to one o f the features of America’s educational system npt often stressed—the small college. He said: “ The small college is saturated with intimate associations and contacts. The student knows everybody in School—and most o f the people in the town, if it is n small one, as it us­ ually is. Teachers have a greater in- luence upon the lives o f students in the small college, than they do in a arger one where hundreds compose a class. * v “ These graduates are clean, whole­ some types o f men and women—with ernestness and'determination written upon. their faces. They have come :from farms, And small towns— the backbone o f our democracy. It has meant great sacrifices, in many cases, for these young people to gain their education—but they amply repay their Malefactors in later life. “ In these smaller schools two o f the most essential elements in education arc taughfcr-to think fo r oneself, and to express oneself in simple, forceful language. A community, or state, can Contribute to no finer investment than ts small colleges." This recognition o f the merits o f the small college is o f particular interest to Ohioans, fo r this state has more tl an its share o f this valuable type o f institution. Reference books list 32 schools in this state—including those for men or women exclusively as well as the co-cducational ones—vrith col- ege ranking, tohich have less than 1000 students. The great majority o f these hate only a fe’w hundred,stu­ dents with Alfred Holbrook and fled* arvile the smallest with 140 and 116 enrollees, respectively. , Nowhere in the United States has the young man or woman with college degree aspirations’ the choice o f a more varied array o f propeetlve alma maters close at hand, or a better op­ portunity to"choose from a long list o f schools the one which fits his per­ sonal requirements as to curriculum, denominational sponsorship, cost or opportunity for specialisation. —Columbus Dispatch Mrs. Edith Satterfield Blair, 77, widow o f William H.
