Friday, November 21, 1941 T THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION o f oiir rfe&dc THE FIRS While some a ers may not be able to read the first proclamation for Thanksgiving1in this country before the new date on the movable calendar, yet it is interesting to read the Proclamation of George Washington, issued for the last Thursday, on November 26, 1789? We have gone a long way in the past one hundred and fifty-two years. The proclamation was interesting due to the fact that both Houses of Congress asked Washington to recommend the observance of the day. We are completing a circle where Roosevelt moved up the date without even consulting his own Congress. What Washington said was as follows: “ Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint Committee, requested me to recommend to the people of the United States a day of Public Thanksgiving and Prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors o f Almighty God, especially by afford­ ing them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of gov­ ernment for their safety and happiness; “ Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the twenty-sixth day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the Beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in render­ ing unto him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care . and protection of the people of this country, previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies, and dhe favorable interpositions of His providence, in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tran­ quility, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in 'which we have been en­ abled. to establish Constitutions of Government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately in­ stituted; for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing use ful .knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors, which He has been pleased to confer upon us. “ And, also, that we may then unite in most humbly offer­ ing our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a bless­ ing to all the people', by constantly being a government o f wise, just* and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed ; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us) and to bless them with good governments, peace and concord ; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science, among them and us; and, generally, to grant unto all mankind such a degree Of temporal pros­ perity as He alone knows to be best. TWO DICTATORS BATTLE FOR POWER The nation is treated to a spectacle never known in the history of the world. Franklin D. Roosevelt, who two years ago wanted to be known as the “ God-father" of the CIO, and was the incentive back of the CIO movement and sit-down strikes in the early, years of his administration, is now at odds and trying to use all the power of the federal government to down John L. Lewis*, former head of CIO and president of the United’Mine Workers. Roosevelt is caught between the forces demanding a closed shop not only in coal mines but all industry anti Wall Street interests that want open shops. Roosevelt de­ sires dictatorial power even over unions while Lewis fights to THANKS FOR THANKSGIVING The busiest beauty shop in the world ••. your own bathroom REX AUTOMATIC •AS WAT** MlATM Ofvii Y§0 O It H In the bathroom that J ou take the most important cauty treatments or all—- cleansingandwashing.

We are Also thankful that Roosevelt only wants seven billion more o f the taxpayers’ money to engage in Joe Stalin’s war, Probate Judge Heririe is thankful for the army appointment with the rank o f Captain at $450 a month in addition to his $300 a month as Pro­ bate Judge. *The attorneys in Greene county are thankful that Judge Henrie gives even part of each Monday to his duties as probate judge, being out of the office the rest o f the week during business hours, , " Democratic families should be thank­ ful and are th&nkfdi that their sons are down in the mosquito infested south at $21 a month rather than be in Russia fighting under the’Red flag, while the Greene county Probate Judge o f draft age is swinging in a swivel chair with steam heat, draw­ ing nearly $800 a month .for the two jobs. Only the Roosevelt boys have him bested. Greene countians are thankful that the Ohio laws provide that the tax­ payers can save money by a petition of five per- cept o f the electors for a vote on combining the offices o f pro­ bate judge and common pleas jobs, Thanks also for the right of a tax­ payer’s suit enjoining payment of the probate salary. Thanks for th e .bout being staged in Washington between the “ White House Bully” and the “ CIO Bully.” It is a great continuous show with Wendel Willkie as a “ rubber” for John L. that »U furlough* have hem cancelled for boy* in the $tth division at Camp Shelby, It U reported the war de­ partment expects to eall this division for patrol duty in the coal mine strike sections o f the nation. In as much as most o f the Greene county boys in service are at Camp Shelby they may get this service. Another report is that if there is an> expeditionary force sent abroad the 87th will be called first. Herman Straley, well known farm­ er and stockfeeder south o f town, ex­ presses himself as about fed up on the AAA farm program which ha. kept farmers from receiving war time prices for farm products, both grain and live stock, He thinks cattle feed era face a loss under present edndi tions, which, do not look well for profitable prices after, the first o f t. year. Argentine beef, he says is surf to injure the American market, His solution is that “farmers should march in a body on Washington and make their demands known in what ever .method is necessary instead of sitting back1and taking a gift that is fo r no other purpose than trying to keep the farmer sweet.” Mr. Stra­ ley . must Have in mind “ Sherman’s march to the sea.” , Archbishop Francis J. L. Beckman, Debuque, Iowa, in a recent speech' in that city lashed members of congress for exchanging their votes, on the re­ peal of neutrality law provisions, for crumbs of patronage. He pointed out what he termed “ Catholic politicians" who “ can no longer be tolerated by the Holy Mother Church.” His ad­ dress was before' 15,000. The arch­ bishop fired at the New Deal trading o f important government appoint­ ments to. congressmen or their friends, including federal judgships, to- the congressmen who opposed re­ peal if they would turn over and sup­ port Roosevelt. i HOf WATER Wftonfcvoryee wui HI Alwayt WITH AM AUTOMATIC A Cincinnati businessman tells us of, what happened to a firm in his city that manufacturers riot or cyclone fence used by manufacturers to pro­ tect. property and of which the gov­ ernment has purchased hundreds of miles for army camps. We are told the Cincinnati firm wanted to bid on the big order for Wright and Patter­ son fields but the representative was informed that was impossible. It is reported the order went to a branch o f the U. S. Steel Company, o f which Myron Taylor Is an official. James Roosevelt, son o f the White House tribe, who abandoned his wife and small children, to marry a nurse under the Roosevelt code of marriage, had agreed on payment o f $35,000, Now Jhe is back in court and wants the benefit payments cut to $25,000. Six months later he may ask that the family be placed on relief. Meantime he is enjoying travels over the nation by land and air as an officer in Dad's army, trying to save Democracy for “Bloody Joe Stalin.” - Deputy O. W. Detrick Submits Resignation When the “ Little Flower” La- Guardia, mayor o f New York, who holds down two jobs* one being a pro­ moter of Roosevelt’s war with “ Mu Roosevelt” ^idingj sent out topics.for ministers to prepare their sermons in support of the Stalin war* the former Socialist, now a New Dealer, brought down a wrath from the ministry. His order was not a suggestion, but a gov­ ernment order to the ministers in the East. He found few that he could scare into following the New Deal method o f dictatorship. Farmers who have wheat govern*, ment loans and the grain stored on their farms are finding the AAA just a bit hard to deal with. A lot of things arise if the farmer wants to sell with the government holding a mortgage. -About the first complaint is, there is weavel in the wheat and the farmer must have the price de­ ducted. Then comes deduction for the moisture, interest charges, and a lot of Other /government red tape that was not billed i^hen the loan was tak­ en out. As to figuring profit, the fanners having the . loan experience find there is none, not even market price the day the wheat was threshed. The statement as to the profit for the state fair this year being around $15,000 when .most years it can hard­ ly break even, is not only due to good management on the part o f the board in control but to the excellent weather that' made good attendance possible. Last year rain kept thousands from attending. While the fair was larger and on a higher plane this past sea­ son than in former years,, it took care­ ful planning and much thought to make the institution the success the people approved. Even a better fair can be expected next year with more accommodations fox’ exhibitors "and patrons. The necessity for more park­ ing space is great; but with the city o f Columbus built around the exhibi­ tion grounds, the limit has about been reached. There is a report out o f Columbus County Suit Before Foreign Jury The suit for $11,377 damages against Greene county commissioners as filed by Bess- Ircton, Wilmington* will be heard on Dec. 12 in common .pleas court before a foreign jury com­ posed of Clark county citizens. A jury venire of twenty—five names has been requested by Judge Frank L. Johnson to bo drawn from the Clark county jury wheel. The damage -claimed is alleged in­ juries dug to the auto leaving the Sel­ ma-Jamestown pike, caused"by holes jn the road that respited in breaking the steering Apparatus. SPRING WEATHER PREVAILS We have enjoyed excellent weather for about one week with the mercury near 70 on Tuesday and a promts of mild weather for Thanksgiving. Few of the older citizens ever saw wheat in a more perfect condition to with­ stand winter. The early sown wheat is as far advanced as we have seen it in many years in April. hold his position, evidently - with the united support of the members. • umon or closed shop has been the top ruhg of the union ladder for years, members hoping for the day When there would-be only union labor in every plant in the land. With that day at hand the unions could hi?b and fire employees as the leaders saw fit. We now’have the demand in all business where the unions, CIO or AFL, are seeking for a fplan to force all union members to pay their dues by deduction from their pay checks and industry remitting to the union head.*f> Millions of members of both the unions stand fbf the closed shop and will fight for it when even the government might not agree. Until recently Roosevelt has permitted different gov­ ernment under Roosevelt, Lewis and Green, forced him to the closed shop was agreed upon. We recall what happendd to Chrysler, General Motors and even Henry Ford, who held out against the closed shop until the power of the federal gov­ ernment Under Roosevelt, Lewis and. Green* forced him to given in or close his plant for ever. In his case he was told he could not even close his plant* the government threatening to take it over if he did not sign the closed shop contract. Myron Taylor, head of the U. S. Steel Company, Wall Street magnet, who until the European war* lived most of the time in London* England* has become a political Confident and bedfellow of Franklin D. Roosevelt, who hated him politically during his fiipt presidential campaign. King George and Prime Minister Churchill convinced Roosevelt that Taylor was their representative and immediately Roosevelt gave Taylor an ap­ pointment as “ ambassador to Rome.” Since then Taylor has had the run of the White House, and it was he who turned RoofieVelt against the closed shop for company mines, thug double crossing Lewis and all organized labor, numbering mil­ lions, who will fight for closed shop not only in industry but in state and federal public offices, It is evident Roosevelt has pulled his paper house on his own head by challenging John L. Lewis to battle. Officials about the court house were stirred Tuesday by t(he announcement o f the resignation o f Deputy Sheriff O. W. Detvick, which came unexpect­ edly. He has served since January 9th and his resignation was made some days ago but not given the pub­ lic until Tuesday. The only reason assigned for ijh® resignation was the reported “ dis­ agreement over policy,” ' which we learn was caused by the insistance o f Sheriff Walton Spahr that all his deputies should be in uniform es­ pecially when on patrol duty on high­ way*, It is reported that Botriefc waa very adverse to wearing any kind of uniform at any time.
