t ^ y r Ap?H $%> 1 M I ' OF BKKP tM STORAGE xt geparta jtodiio«te there is in storage in this ‘ 80 peu©«jl« of beef as o f April 1st compared, mirads a year ago and a five year average of TTjSH’LQiM) pmjnde. ; Tfe* eg^epnndnt reports there are 810,626,000 pounds of lard in storage after deducting recent government purchase. The amount in storage is only one million poundg under the lamest storage on record. In the faceJbf th e enormous beef in storage the adminis­ tration contracts with Argentina for 20,000,000 pounds of cheap beef to feed the hoys in the army and navy. Certainly something supporters of the "Good Neighbor Policy" cannot boast of for the best interest of the American farmer. The government has made liberal purchases,of lard sub­ stitute for both the army and navy in the face of lard surplus. Tuesday, announcement was .made th a t the New Deal will issue a statement soon from the White House as to a control order tha t will force farmers to reduce the number of hogs fed for market. We do note^pect a very loud acclaim from the *‘Amen" corner when this' order is made public. The. Herald has repeatedly warned th a t the New Deal was going to make good its promise to organized labor th a t the cost of living would not increase and could be controlled by permitting foreign imports to forcg'market prices, down, Con­ trolling yottr com, wheat, beef and dairy products while war . wages are paid in industry and huge profits permitted op con­ tracts for war supplies, the farmer is bribed with a govern­ ment check of- a few dollars to swallow the AAA <is a patriotic citizen in the cause of national defense, as Brother Joe Mason terms the crop control plan. " ^ I t is not often that any .group ap­ pears before a legislative committee and asks to have a special tax placed on " it This happened in the Ohio Senate last week when the apple growers asked the Senate to pare » bill to levy a tax of one cent per bushel on all Ohio apples grown in the state when offered for sale. The bill was sharply'debated as setting a bad example for other lineB would want such a tax also and then it was hot certain this apple bill would stand a teat in courts, The bill would, create an apple commission of five members, JUST A FEW DAYS. CLOSER TO EUROPE’S WAR ’ * i t , & ' * Statements issued from"the White House.this week as wel as those oh Tuesday by Secretary Knox of the Navy and Secre ta ry Stimson of the. War Department; certainly are convincing tha t little is bein& done ,by the administration t# keep this nation out of war, - 1 I f we are to. stay out why should Roosevelt suggest a change in the ages of those for the draft to 18 to 23 on the ground they would have no dependents? With both Knox anc Stimson"open advocates of immediate entrance in the war we a re not surprised at their statements. Samson says we should , plan for another five years of war* .If we want to get in the war, and Roosevelt as well as Willkie made campaign pledges that no American boy woulc be sent into the war zone, then why not send our army to in- --vade-Hurope-to^-free-the-Eoles,--Belgians^-.Danes-,_andLj)fher small nations conquered by Hit!erT? . We should declare war, on Russia to free the Finns, Poles and the Baltic nations. Another step to free the down-trodden . and we must" fight the British to free tife millions of slaves in India and-South Africa. To. complete our war plans why not fight the Japs to free the Chinese? ' When we have completed, licking the world why not sit down quietly and analyze our own government to see if we still have a t home what, we were fighting for—Jeffersonian Democracy. By that time we are certain the nation will have been convinced tha t the U. S. and the world has had at least one to many Roosevelts, f t will not come home until the war mongers from Wall" Street to 'th e White House have drawn every 18 year old youth from American homes, for European war camps, , PERSONAL LIBERTY FOR PRESIDENT'S SON James Roosevelt, son of the Roosevelt dynasty in the White 1House, 'Who divorced his wife and abandoned his two little daughters/a Captain ih the Naval Reserve (over night by presi­ dential order), former secretary to his father a t government; expense, motion picture executive, has taken unto himself another wife in a few months after legal separation. From a family noted for divorces, young Roosevelt paid ^his wife $65,000 according to press reports to sooth her wounds, not a word or charge was brought that reflected on*-her char­ acter. (Captain) Roosevelt after meeting a nurse in a hospita* tired of his wife and you have the story. His second choice was of a different religious faith than the .Roosevelt family and under ordinary circumstances the marriage ceremony would have been performed under rules of her church; Evidently money would not purchase what would he necessary for a church wedding. Hence the couple slipped away for a civil ceremony by a public official. All of which makes an interesting topic for conversation in New Deal circles. Turned up noses meets mention of the nauseating topic in all other circles, high and low.

There are more people using citrus fruits than apples. , ‘ The apple situation brings to mind the plan Roosevelt cooked up a couple of years ago to tickle the western ap pie growers. He made a deal with France and1a few hundred thousand boxes of western apples were shipped to France with the understanding that country would ship a certain number of cases of French wine to this coun­ try, the apples to pay, for the wine. The wine was shipped and of course sold a t once in this country. The ap­ ples, rotted a t the wharf in France as there was no market for them; The French wine,merchants were eventual­ ly paid in cash for the wine hut no one ever heard of the western apple grdw ers being paid for the apples, ■ With the appropriation bill nearly a law the Ohio legislature is now thinking “of adjournment" time which may come early in May. Most of the Bricker, program has been passed against Democratic opposition that proved rather feeble. The Democratic leaders - tried --to force New Deal methods for outlandish expenditures but they., could not break tbe solid Republican line. Much of the increase in the budget is due to the necessary building program' a t state institutions to care fo r the state’s wards and for increase in old age pensions. Secretary of the Interior, Ickes, stooge for the^ Fifth Avenue playboy ..vith a trust; company guardianship over his interest In his father's estate, takes' another, ehot a rC ha rlo f Lind­ bergh, who had the nerve to. warn the New Dealers that D»is country was not prepared'for any Wat/aild th a t Ger­ many was snperior to England or this country fa war equipment. Ickes also fires a broadside against «Gen, Wood, head of Sears-Roebuck, who has been a supporter of much of the New Deal in the past but left that camp when Roosevelt was -stricken with the British war fever. Gen. Wood says it is not our war -and he warns this country of the ill effect irt the future of wfiat Roosevelt is doing to and against future generations. Ickes was a real estate promoter in Chicago under -the. boon days previous to the 1929 blowup. Having gathered in all he could in commissions he was con­ verted to socialistic ideas and just fit in the Roosevelt Communistic picture, Now Ickes is for .war, more war and any war to help reduce the Roose­ velt fever for war, bloodshed, death and destruction of any and everything. If we read the papers correctly very few people in the country heeded the call of Mrs. Roosevelt that the women make more sacrifices and eliminate the spring hat as well as aluminum pans to aid the cause of war for which we are headed. Picture magazines car­ ried great pictures of the “leading lady” showing various gowns and pic­ ture hats for morning, noon and night in Easter attire. reason fe»'ari&wiCTM. is tire army, if not t g ^ y S g a IsfomgbloB w* get from $• tha t the draft boardd h J p $ {feeoegh the list to bh# Dj«bri# «£ g&totobfe with such rapidity that ! ^ t about *00 mors eligible* are on fo l ptfe and this to a district with todf a.toStowi population.

Rural counties are furnishing the “gun-fod­ der” for Roosevelt* army to fight whom? Senator Smith's plea for exemption of his son is about on .'par with the attitude’ of some/outstanding New Dealers to this county we could name. One of the faithful journeyed to Co­ lumbus a fow weeks ago and laid his case before a prominent Democra­ tic attorney with wide Influence in his party. The Greene countian Was given .warning that local draft boards bad to be considered first as Washington had placed all responsibility in local boards, The Democratic attorney ;ought the 'aid. o f a Republican mem- >er of the bar, Franklin county, *15113 attorney stated he thought i t unwidir to interfere but he would seek the ad­ vice pf a friend .in Greene county.

And here is going to bo more concern ibout boys of draft age, Congress has jbout agreed that changes to the draft law must be made this summer and h a t the ago limits will he 18 to 23, with the privilege of four.years in College.

Charlie Chaplin is back. / ‘ After two. years of now-you-aee-hlm-naw-you-don’t and an incredi­ ble confusion of /amors ms to whether he would make “The Great Dictator” or not make it, and, then, having made it, whether i t had to be remade, and then, whether .lt would ever be publicly shown, the news is that “The Great Dictator,” the first Charlie Chaplin comedy since “Modem Times,” will upon aPfhe Regent Theater on .Thursday, Not only that, there are the following fopt-notea; that It was completed in 171 days of shooting time, which Is reasonable enough- - when It is considered that Chaplin writes the story and the dia­ logue, directs the story, plays a dual role to the picture^ edits It .and scores the music.* It cost to the neighborhood of more than $2,000,000. That if is ~ tbe most ambitious and the most expensive production that Chaplin has ever attempted is.Iess important than the fact that it Involves the little clown to artistic responsibilities and caricature, that he has never before attempted. frout*Season ----- - Opened Tuesday Tuesday was trOut day to Ohio and streams in ’Greene, Clark, Champaign md Logan counties through which lows Mad Riyer was opened to sports nen who like to set a trea t line .

LOCAL SHOWERS ARRIVED NOTICE TO THE EDITOR Dear Sir; As one who sitp down twice a day, morning .and night, to pail eight cows I Wonder where those who sell milk and*cream are to share in the war profits we hear about. Much Is said about farmers getting rich on wheat and corn quotas, those .who draw AAA salaries, but all the dairy interests get is to supply milk and cream a t the old prico that the butter interests can have the profit. Com pare milk and cream prices with but ter prices. Why not feed our whole milk to the nine cent hogs? It is a case of “farming the farmer for the city consumer.” The Morrow county writer to the Ohio Farmer was right when he said the AAA was a plan for paying the farmer: $1 for resting rath­ er than $2 for working.' Selma, O ." R. F. C. THOMAS LUMBER CO. FIRE How should a senator or congress­ man vote on the increased 1,340 mil­ lion agricultural appropriation hill?

A pertinent com­ ment on the present bill Was: “Its about time the North secedes from the South.” What position will the Ohio AAA take on this bill 7 The Thomas Lumber Co., Jefferson­ ville, 0,, suffered loss by fire shortly before midnight, Friday, that amount­ ed to several thousand dollars with partial insurance.
