Many, in fact almost all. o f those who bad voted against the measure when it was before the House Ip, February, voted-to accept the Sen­ ate, amendments. Some pro-Adminis- tration Writers and radio commenta­ tors have endeavored to ‘claim that those ..who Voted fo r the amendments Were approving the principles o f the bill. Nothing could' he farther from the truth, fo r the Nouse did not have ah opportunity of voting on the bill la s t Week,'but only on 'th e Senate amendments.' The hill had already passed^ the GOngress,'f"The Senate amendments placed restrictions -upon thfe powers granted to the President, and many of the members who voted f&t the amendments explained on the >Floor th a t they were still opposed to *the principles of the bill and were simply voting for the amendments in order to place as many safeguards *abd restrictions as possible in the mesure.

AWARD JUDGMENT - A. E- Chenaweth, Xenia, was award­ ed a $76,50 judgment in a suit against Charles R. Jaymes, Jr, ” . Within an hour -after the President signed' the Lease-Lend Bill, and it be­ came a law, announcement was made th a t a great quantity of equipment ■ifrom- th e ' United. States Army ahd Navy would be dispatched to Great Britain and that the President would immediately request an^appropriation - of seven billion dollars, to start the Lease-Lend program. No announce­ ment was made as to just what -mili- "tary'and. naval equipment was being sen t-to ,Great Britain, for under the new law the President is not required to report to the .Congress or to the .public for ninety Bays as to the_ aid extended to other nations under the authority grgntedbim. However, from owh-wq^ds^as-^fll-aa': front other sources believed ip be Authoritative, there can be no ques­ tion but that quite a large number of naval vessels-are among the items be­ ing transferred to Great Britain im­ mediately. In that connection it may. be recalled that in testifying before the Foreign Affairs Committee .of the House,'when it was pointed out to Secretary of the Navy Knox that the bill would permit the President, if he so desired, to sell, lease, lend or give away the'American Navy, the Secretary branded the idea that'the President might .take such action as “absurd”. Later the Secretary of the Navy. in a puolic statement, gave as his belief th a t no ships from the America iiSNavy could be spared to be sent to Great Britain as Suggested by Wendell Willkie. However, If latest 'reports -are a t ’all correct, Secretary Knox was Wrong by one hundred to tWo hundred and fifty ships. Bui now that the Lease-Lend Bill ,1ms been enacted into law the United States government has- officially been, committed to “all out aid” for Great Britain and other nations opposing the Axis Powers. Such a p. ogram is .going to be an.immensely costly one. I t 'i s also going to be-an extremely dangerous one, fo r actual Involvement in War appears to be not only the pos­ sible, i>ut the probable outcome, America is to become the arsenal,of the world under the new law. f t will aim mean a- joining of American in­ terests with those of Great.,Britain th a t must of necessity .carry On for many years to come. We are embark­ ing upoff -HK imperialistic- program, Which Will require our active partici­ pation in world affairs as never be­ fore. We are assuming a-great por­ tion of the responsibility for the out­ come of the present war in Europe and fo r the peace that must come soohef or later. In home affairs we have granted to President Roosevelt .power and ,authority such as never hold or exercised by- any other Presi­ dent. Government Will have an un­ limited control* oyer industry and la­ bor, and the lives and activities of all American citizens. Many Americans, including your humble correspondent, Were opposed to the Lease-Lend.Bill when it wi& before Congress as un­ wise And unnecessary legislation, and Iff the belief that aid could be given Great Britain* in a more-"direct and efficient manner without conferring unusual and dictatorial powers upon the President as provided in the measure. However, the. majority has dittoed otherwise. Under our system * f representative government the ma­ jority fulys.

They contribute on-the average 4ff'per cent of the total agricultural income or $2,000,000.00 annually. However, dur­ ing the past year because of-the short corn crop and low hog prices-the hog producer has beeri a t a‘disadvantage, Lard holdings on February 1, were by fa r the largest on record and pork the largest- aihee 1925.

GOVERNOR BRICKER WINS ON ■- - ■* PASSAGE OF TAX DIST. BILL The Senate on Tuesday passed the appropriation bill for distribution of twelve million dollars of sales tax funds among the counties arid muni­ cipalities. The Democratic minority voted solidly against the' measure which the Governor had asked for in his budget, A Dayton senator that had been elected on/the Democratic ticket on a promise to vote to repeal the sales tax was ridiculed on the floor when he spoke for a larger share of the sales tax for, Dayton. He pleaded poverty and yet Montgomery county is one of the few counties where the relief load grows each month while the Chamber of Commerce boasts of a million dol­ lar increase in monthly payrolls. The result was a marked victory for the Bricker administration and the rural counties. The urban counties have tried to put the’Governor in the hole, but failed. • - Coal Picker Killed By Pennsy Train Albert Joseph Plckcl, 42,- Rfd 5, Xenia, was killed and Charles Star­ ting, 56, same address, was seriously jnjured when hit by a west-bound Pennsylvania train near the crossing on the Jamestown-Xenia pike about 2i47, Sunday, According to Sheriff" Walton Sprihr and Couhty Road Patrolman Henry E.
