Friday, May 23, 1941 FLORIDA PUBLISHERS DID THEMSELVES PROUD To omit comrawt on the recent trip to Florida to attend the fifty-sixth annual convention of the “National Editorial Asaoeiaiion which waa held in Jacksonville last month would be unappreciative of the efforts of Florida publishers to en­ tertain the convention members which numbered some six hun­ dred. Not only are th e Florida publishers entitled to much praise for their efforts but the business interests through the Chambers of Commerce and civic organizations all had a part in entertaining the large party on a scale not attempted by another state in the history of N, E. A. conventions. The convention plans of course were in the hands of the directors of the N. E, A. and its directing heads, Roy A. Brown, San Rafel, Calif., Raymond B. Howard, London, 0-, and Don Eek of the N. E. A., Chicago. I t was one of the most success­ ful meetings of the group we have attended which covers a period Of some twenty-five years. Words are inadequate to express the appreciation of the efforts of Russell Kay, President of the Florida -Association, with his First Vice President, George E, Hoamer, and Charles F, Heifenstein, Secretary, Every detail of the plan to enter­ tain more than 500 convention members on a tour of the state covering seven days had been, carefully worked out, much to the pleasure and enjoymcht of the visitors. From time to time the Herald will carry illustrated articles of some of the sights visited- and What Florida and its citizens enjoy themselves and have to offer the public, Florida knows the value of publicity and has developed salesmanship, some-, thing Ohio could .well afford to develop to a ttrac t summer tourists from over the nation. GOOD JOB OF LAWMAKING "Another Ohio legislative session has come and gone, one Which was not only the. shortest in years, but also one of the best. Shortness and merit usually are synonymous in such mat­ ters, and the people of Ohio might well some day consider limiting their regular legislative session to two or three months, 4 . as is the constitutional mandate in some states. The longer the session, the stronger the pressure of lobby groups ,and the more prevalent the ancient practice of back scratching and log rolling, devices which result" in the enact­ ment of so-called “cats and dogs” which are unthinkable in the early, free and unfcrammeled weeks of a newly elected General Assembly. * To Speaker McCullough and his associates in the leader- ship of the lower. hoiiSe goes much of the credit for holding trifling and needless legislation to a minimum. McCullough had hoped to adjourn a week earlier, and the truth is tha t many of the bills maneuvered through the final week are of questionable merit, well deserving of being veto- axed by Governor Bricker. . . Mr. Bricker has reason for feeling gratified over his second- term session. He had few innovations to ask, having secured enactment of his administration policies two years ago. He owes thanks to both Senate and House leadership, the Repub licans having a bare majority in the Senate and only a slim 'majority in the House—th e leadership so conducting itself as not to create insurgents in their own ranks and usually, on the other hand, gaining and holding th e support r£ some of the Democrats. The budget was balanced again and without new taxes as i t was two years ago, a feat which is exceptional and out­ standing in this New Deal era of America, Without, handicap­ ping any essential state service. Indeed, extensive improve­ ments in the’physical plants of state institutions are promised in the "appropriations act, -increased aid for the aged, a sub­ stantial payment on the school debt inherited from a former governor, and other desired adjustments too long'to recite. I t is a case of well done by good and faithful servants. —The Ohio State Journal, Hie Am An American Day” has paased and with, i t cornea a bit of com­ ment in many daily papers. The Springfield Son suggests i t would hare bgen better to have termed the event “We Are Americans.” Our idea is from the "ear” of onr first page head­ ing, "American* for America—Ameri­ ca for Americana.” In as much as the title suggested for observance last Sunday came from New Deal head­ quarters, our suggestion would not fit NeW Deal purposes, in as much As trade relations as well as foreign poli­ cies and warplans have made "Ameri­ can? the Goat In Another World War;” Now that the New Deal ha? forced every cabinet member to take the plat­ form to plead for war support as out., lined by the war mongers in the White House, the War and Navy depart­ ments, the AAA as well, we can see just what was behind the “I Am An American Day.” . A nation-wide poll conducted by an eastern bureau shows about 70 per cent of the American people-against entering ,any foreign war and thirty per cent favoring. This influence would send the New Deal war plans into junk. Hence, cabinet members take the stump Saturday and Sunday to whoop up the" wax- movement. The next step is to or­ ganize civilians in the war plans and Roosevelt appoints the New York Socialist, foreign bom mayor, to head the movement. “America for Ameri­ cans” is hardly a-, fitting expression for events as they transpire in Wash­ ington these days, FARMERS HAVE NOT BEEN FULLY INFORMED Now that the American wheat growers are asked to vote themselves into a Russianized movement under direction*of the. Department of Agriculture on a wheat quota, all the paid forces of the AAA are expected to become as ‘active in the coming- election as a ward-heeler- in a primary election. One thing is certain from sentiment we have sounded, if the quota passes, and there is to be^no check on the outcome of "the election other than by those Who favor the plan, local committeemen as well as county committeemen will face the wrath of those farmers in every community for years to come. As fo r the county committee, each and everyone is paid a handsome salary and probably can stand any-criticism that falls their way. - * The plan to.be voted upon eliminates all farthers who pro­ duce 200 bushels of wheat or less. They will not be under control of the salary group in each county seat, This is dis­ crimination pure and Bimple. If the farmer tha t produces more than 200 bushels is favored with goofi weather and nature, re­ turns more than the acreage allowance, he is to be penalized If the overage is fed, sold, traded, or not kept in a marketable condition. The penalty inflicted must be collected as income taxes and other government income and fines are collected, Herq is a good chance for a lot of farmers getting acquainted with the U. S. Marshal and Internal Revenue Collector in each »district. I t has been contended for generations tha t the life of the ;American farmer v/as the most independent of any. occupation, trade or profession in the nation. If he votes away his God- given right fo r the Russian plan he becomes subject to the rules of a bureaucratic set-up in Washington th a t will place him on par with other lines of business and have union labor forced on every farm in the nation, The time for decision is near a t hand whether each farmer is to think, act and plan according to his own judgment or listen to the platitudes and promises of those highly paid to pell something tha t evidently will not sell itself.

I t naturally would fall flat with two White House sons branded in the army camps In this country as "legalized slackers.” Sec- ietarjn iuU , expdnentdf to e" "Good" Neighbor Policy,” a new term for free trade, in his last speech, advocated open markets over the world, if that is not free trade we leave it to the AAA, to so inform the farmers that are asked to vote a "straight jacket” on the wheat quota. Secretary Wick- urd of the Ag. Department om*e more responded to the White House as to the necessity for selling the Roosevelt war to farmers that are reluctant to swallow the idea of trading the blood of their sons to save the hide of those who started the shooting abroad. Some of these days one need not be surprised to hear that farmers will be marching their sons, lS years or probably younger, to the office of the AAA, to register for army service. The joke about the future world trade is about as laughable as the claim that we should import Cuban sugar, so that the people on that island can purchase automobiles, gaso­ line and tires as well as electric re­ frigerators and radios. We have been in Cuba and came away with a far different picture. Outside of Havanna, which is supported largely by Ameri­ can tourists and is truly a wonderful city from the old world point of view, with" some modern tendencies, there is nothing else on the isle that would require any of the modem day con- .veniehces as we enjoy. If the average American could drive into ‘the rural sections and pee how the populace lives, not in houses,. Buch as the poor­ est enjoy in this country, but in thatched huts, dugouts, -ctc.i with mule or pbny in one end. a pig sty in the other while the family lives in the middle, you can imagine just how many years it will be before these people earning 25c a day for labor, can earn enough to purchase one tire, let alone ah auto from- the American junk yard. It is this labor that is pro­ ducing sugar cane and garden veget­ ables valued a t millions each year in the American market that is giving us competition in this country especially on our wage scale of labor. The New Deal has cried long and loud about low wage scales and yet permits im­ portation of crops from other nations that help hold down the price of food products of the American farm. la r mm . n»Mt b«t reeriv* p % a limbed 4NBPf% wring to tit* haaaxd of shipping through tbs war sons.

W t U W B f w R JA n fM T (Oo*raoTO.Fm»i F u a t p*m ) Mailon, ip hfa column, points out that should Germany win over Eng­ land, the former would undersell the world. I t is certain England with her great war debt could not meet Ger­ many for she was unable to dp ao be­ fore the start of the present war, Both England and Germany had much lower wage scales than We have had in this country- This column some months ago pointed out that several lines of business in this country suffered three years ago this coming mpnth "from England underbidding American man- ufacturers in South American mar­ ket. At that time the. English wage scale was about one-third less than what we had in this country at that time. In later months -Germany with her "barter plan” underbid England sven more than England had underbid the U, S. Then England opened war on Germany and Ring George came to America to sell his war to the New Deal—and succeeded. With the world broke at present what chance will any nation have of purchasing our goods anless we continue the Henry A. Wal­ lace plan of "loaning China ten million dollars to purchase ten million dollars worth of American, cotton?" Bnt the uxplanation of. such a plan as sound .'conomics is up to the AAA. Bankers, tradesmen and ditch-diggers could not ice that far into the future. ' , Now that' we are in the commence­ ment period we recall that it was in 1895 that the first baccalaureate ser­ mon was~ inaugurated in connection with high school commencements. The first sermon was delivered by the late Rev. T. C. Sproul, then pastor of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, (O.

BUDGET PLAN AVAILABLE Adair's N. Detroit St. APPLE GROWERS PROTEST CANADIAN IMPORTS The White House speech Set for last week was called off hut no satisfactory Or convincing statement was issued. The facts are war events abroad Were happening so fast our own plans were upset daily. The reported sinking of a vessel with 138 Americans abroad cooled the Roosevelt idea of sending our ships through the Red Sea after warning such vessels would be sunk. At home the "Good Neighbor” policy was being given a test. The govern­ ment having contracted for Argentine 'jcef for Americatf-goldier boys irt preference to native corn fed beef was defended by New Deal leaders. Much has been said about the Pan- American plan. Th'ere is the Pan- American bafik with twenty-one na­ tions, The New Deal invested several mijlion dollars in toe enterprise, We. have one vote in the organization while the neighbors to the south have twenty votes. Last week it was re­ ported Argentina, which lias not swal- owed the Pan-American plan "hook and sinker” made new demands on Washington th a t America must take more of her meat products. Argentina has a contract with England to supply We notice by toe National Grange Monthly an interesting article where­ by apple growers in this country, es­ pecially tbe Northwest, protest the importation Of Canadian apples by the Hull-Roosevelt ’Tree-trade” plan. The growers say toe Department of Agriculture has permitted 839 cars of apples from Canada ’.to come into this country, Up to Jan. 22 from the 1940 crop. Canada - has a tariff against American apples of 50c a bushel. See­ ing the flood of apples was ruining die American market the New Deal purchased hundreds of thousands of jushols o f American apples to give xwny to those on relief. Meantime more Canadian apples continued to swamp the American, market. The wheat grower faced the same situation until shipping became dangerous. Rue sian wheat was shipped to this coun­ try while American fanners were paid not to raise wheat. OHIO METHODIST CONFERENCE The annual Ohio Methodist Confer­ ence meets next week in Columbus. It is said to be the largest conference in the denomination. Members of the local congregation are expecting the return of Dr. David H, Markle. A number of members from here are ex­ pected to attend some of the Confer­ ence sessions. LEGISLATURE ADJOURNED The Ohio legislature adjourned last Friday after one of the shortest ses­ sions in recent years. It also broke recent records for the lowest number of laws passed and even the number that could be called freakish. The Republicans had control of both branches. Democratic leadership made little effort to pass laws other than proposals hacked by union labor. HEALTH COMMISSION SAYS BIRTHS EXCEED DEATHS Births outnumbered deaths in Greene County last year by 129, the annual report t of the combined city-county health department’reveals. There were 500 births and 330 deaths. Heart dis­ ease, with 141 fatalities, led all causes of death in 1940, according to Dr. Gor­ don E. Savage, public’health commis­ sioner. “GUESSAGAltf” .
