BROWN Member o f Congress, .Seventh Ohio District . Qur jippptry is staining op the very brink o f war. Just how soon the final plunge, into the full fury o f com­ bat w||l be taken, only, the future can tell; but the time does not appear to be far distant. During 19^8, long before the holo caust broke put I told the people, o f my district that I believed another great war was developing in Europe aljd predicted the greatest task await­ ing the 76th Congress would be to kpep America out of the titantic struggle that was to come.- f gave solemn pledge and promise to do .all I could to keep our country at honor­ able peace with all the world. Despite the betrayal*of Czechoslo­ vakia'—despite Munich—v?ar came to Europe, in September, 1939. . Soon - thereafter the President of the United .States asked fo r far-reaching changes in important laws affecting. our foreign policy, telling the Congress and the peqple that the changes he re­ quested were for the purposes of peace. To me they were steps toward War. I warped against them apd in­ sisted their adoption would start our beloved country down the road to war. Mpny o f my colleagues agreed with me, but through one means or another sufficient votes were found to write into the law 'the changes requested by the President. So the Neutrality Act, which had been passed by the Congress during the peaceful days o f 1935 at the insistence of President Roosevelt and Secretary of State Hull as the. greatest, legislative contribu­ tion ever made to world peace and for the safety o f the United States, was amended. It was amended so as to permit certain belligerents — Great Britain and France—to purchase mili­ tary supplies from us for "cash on the barrelhead'’, with delivery at our pprts for transportation across the seas in their own ship8- Many of,us ppinted out that when the cash, be­ gan to run low, the demand would l|i4n comp.,f o r military supplies on credit. ;^Jso that when British ship looses became h igh/the demand would come that we furnish ships to deliver the goods we were selling.' The Presi­ dent and his advisors scoffed at our warnings and our predictions. We were told that the Neutrality Act would not permit either contingency to arise; that the Act whs our safe­ guard and our protection; and that it Would not be further amended or changed. Remembering our lessons from World War No. 1 , and seeing danger Ahead, many o f us began to call for the building o f 1 a strong national de­ fense for the United States. In many speeches, I called attention to our un­ preparedness and to the lack of mod­ ern and mechanized equipment for use o f our armed forces. The Lowland Countries were invaded and conquer­ ed and still the Roosevelt Administra­ tion'marked time. As late as^June of 1^10, the President, in endeavoring to get the Congress to adjourn and go home, mpdp .the sarcastic remarks to ftp effect that there was nothing for Congress to do except make a lot o f "hilly speeches,” I joined In helping to defeat the adjournment resolution, It was afterwards thqt the entire na- tipnal defense program, as we know it) was builded. In .the creation arid development o f our national defense program, ajong with all other Repub­ lican and Democratic Members o f the House, I voted for every defense ap­ propriation bill.<> There Was no lack o f unity or agreement within the ..Con­ gress ap to the necessity or desirabili­ ty o f having a strong and Impreg­ nable national defense for our own epuntry, At all times the members o f both parties have stood together in their determination that America bp ipade strong and self-reliant at the earliest possible moment. In many in­ stances it jhas been the Republicans in Congress that have led the fight rpid pointed the way in. our defense efforts. ■ [Soon after Congress began its great tpsk o f building a national defense program the President announced his secretly made destroyer deal, which provided for the transfer to Great Britain o f a good portion o f the American Navy. Months later it be­ came hnpwn that a jh^gc quantity o f yuns, munitions and other army sup­ plies had also been ‘transferred to Britain. This was the first indica­ tion that the President expected to Ignore ,the Congress and the people, in matters o f foreign policy. Thus a new method was established for the trans­ action,of foreign qffaira by the Ameri­ can government. Then eame the, political campaign p i 1940.

Adequate Prices For Farm Crops Urged WORCESTER, Mass.—The Nation­ al Grange declared that "exhorta­ tions” to farmers to greatly expand production of fooda war war needs would not suffice unless adequate farm prices .were assured. If .food production fails to come up. to needs as outlined by (Secretary o f Agriouture Wickard under a recently announced "Food-fior-Defense” pro­ gram, the Grange said, thp cause would be "not a lack of will to serve, but financial inability o f farmers to carry on.” This position was taken in a resolu­ tion adopted by^the farm organiza­ tion’s 75th annual convention after Wickard had tola delegates that farm­ ers in the interest of the defense pro­ gram, had to take a risk that increased production of food might result in some reduction in current prices. "Agriculture with jts 6,500,000 in-- dividual producing units,” said the Grange, “ is (east likely of all indus­ tries to exact monopolistic prices from consumers. If* farmers cap get equit­ able prices for their produets, they can and will produce in abundance.” Some leaders predicted the farm organization would insist that the government offer greater assurances o f adequate farm prices than now pro­ vided under federal farm programs. These programs authorize the agri­ culture department to Support prices of food products involved in‘ the pro­ duction drive at 85 per ceijt o f the parity goals of agricultural legisla­ tion insofar as its funds permit. "Farmers,” said the Grange resolu­ tion, "should not ask for pwre nor agree to accept less than actual pari­ ty.” The conventkm also declared its op­ position to "arbitrary price-fixing un­ less necessary." It expressed belief that inflation, which it said may des­ troy democracy unless controlled, could be curbed by "economic devices designed to lessen the pressure o f sur­ plus Income on inadequate supplies.’* Cheer Leaders W«neta Davis, Frances Jolley, an,< Lois Brown were selected Chter Lead­ ers by the high tofool assembly last JSriday after they ,had demonstrate! their ability to h|ad the group ji cheers. f Eleanor Herteosfceiri and Mildred Williamson are the* junior high cheer leaders. *4 Junior Class Play $ "Boarding School,” a lively three act comedy by Jap|es Worthing,' will be presented in the Opera House, on Thursday, November 27 at 8 P.

John W» Bricker is to have right o f way at the next state primary without op­ position, while a half dozen Demo­ crats may seek the Democratic nomin­ ation. The article says Clarence J. Brown, congressman for'th is district, is to have a clear field next year, as Sen. Keiffcr Springfield, who had been mentioned will seek another term in the Ohio upper house. At­ torney Harold Huston, Urbana, is not interested in the congressional con­ test as he has his weather-eye on a judgship. The Springfield reviewer quotes L. T. Marshall, Xenia, as hav­ ing no political aspirations for next year. L. J. Tabor Declines Grange Re-election L. J. Tabor, farm leader for years, who has been Master o f the National Grange for 18 years, declined Te-elec- tion this year as he has done the past four years, He is an Ohio farmer and will -be succeeded by Albert Goss, for­ mer Master o f the Washington State Grange, Mr. Tabor will devote all his time to .an insurance company con­ trolled by the Grange fo r its members. Goss looks on the future o f agricul­ ture under regimentation of the AAA with much concern. He insists on prices in comparison with prices of what the farmer must purchase, Goss resigned as land bank commis­ sioner last year because the New Deal wanted to use it for political purposes and turned the' department over to' the secretary of agriculture. The Grange is the oldest farm organization in the nation and the most conservative, never permitting the organization to be used for political purposes. liJOMii When To Hail To Bpys In Camps The post office department has is-. *U®tf * schedule, shoeing when you, should mail Christmas packages to the draftees in various camps. 0NE -P 4Y SSHYIPS Fprt Kppx,. $ y .; Fprt Beqjanlin Herrisau, Ind.; Port Thpm$8> Ky.| Ordnance Depot, ^a Cure8* P»; Fort Haye3, Columbus; Bowman Field, Ky] TWQ -P4Y SERVICE ..
