This week we observe this declaration signed for the free­ dom of the people of this country and we are Informed by the press dispatches that a movement is to be started to circulate petitions to initiate a law to legalise gambling-in Ohio, Regard­ less o f the fact cities and counties have been battling the gambling erase, as well aa other immoral movements, those who would enthrone these fgras of amusement, now plan6 to legalize what in the one hundred and sixty years has been re­ garded as illegai.fram tbe standpoint of civil law and immoral from the view of sober thinking society, A few cities have attempted to legalize gambling only to have their, ordinances declared unconstitutional by the higher courts. In many cities the gambling craze is carried on and fostered in and out of courts by racketeers and gangsters. Now we are told those profiting from the gambling evil will circulate petitions seeking signatures to change the Constitution for li­ censing certain gambling for revenue, This is the method of appealing to the public ,for support- The Ohio constitution holds all forms of gambling illegal. If these petitions are cir­ culated in Greene county it would be well for each community to know by,publication of the names of signers so that “ he who runs may read.’* Gambling has been fostered more or less by the New Deal administration as much as it has given open and passive sup­ port to the liquor trade; It wasRoosevelt himself that advocat­ ed prohibition repeal.. It was the Roosevelt family that opened the doors of the White House for liquor parties the first time in the history of the nation covered by the period we observe today. * , ' * ' , \ *, Liquor is sold in all government camps. All:sorts of gambling and prostitution can be found around American; camps. Intoxicated men in different branches of the service roam the streets of towns and cities, all of which has caused municipal and county officials conceri ment is both blind and dumb to app , Not so long ago conditions were .exposed in Congress where it Was proposed to legislate to bring about stricter enforcement of state and federal laws butSecretaryStimsonat once register­ ed objection to suchlegislation, presumably being proded by . the White House. . At times conditions, incities near government camps is a - public disgrace. We havewitnessed it in southern camps and . around the one at Columbus, where Mayor Green held en­ forcement of such laws was for the federal government. With­ in the past ten days we have visited camps In Canada, where 'no evidence of liquor among the4nen Was noticeable and in as.much aamost camps were far from cities or towns, we found no roadside establishments as we hav$ in this country. We have seen hundreds'and hundreds of Canadian enlisted men ' in uniforms on the streets o f the largest and smallest cities in the Province of Ontario and We have yet to see a single intoxi­ cated soldier, Ontario does not have open bar -rooms such as we have in Ohio. Only a few hotels Serve drinks under license in. connection with the dining rooms, The principal sale of. liquor, beer, wines and hard- liquors is through government agencies by the package. ; ; The past one.hundred and sixty years has witnessed many changes in our national life. Some no doubt for the best, with others it may be an uncertain guess. -At best it may be stated the New Heal has written .a new chapter on White House morals, something never before, permitted by any other presi­ dent, Federalist, Whig, Republican or Democrat. -w■—**- ~~."s Aa tisfe to written, dispatches taJL «*** that Mw New Deal suffered a ff jurjlxfcds W’^wu Gov, W.

More liberality for married men has been advocated also. This leaves a bad taste in the mouths o f thousands who are now sweltering ift American camps, Parents are setting op the claim these men’ in service have been discriminated against. Just as much criticism against the.new draft o f young men that hive become 21 years of age,- The government has been jumping from pillar to post.on the draft operation and rather than have a fast law, have left much to local boards and thesO do not have any set program, each draftee being treated On bia merits. Not much has been heard from Dr. Townsend and his plan to give $200 monthly pensions to all over 60 years. The organization held the annual con­ vention in Buffalo, N. V., this week, With 8,000 delegates, from every state in the union. It was claimed that the Dr.’splan wouldwreclc the nation, To­ day the debt is greater by four times oyer what it Was estimated the $200 monthly pension would cost; The fact is, Pr, TdwnsendVplan would cost the nation much lesffihan the present cost o f all our social"service agencies.' Now that boy* of 21 years of age have registered fo r the army, some 760,000 o f them, we stand in strong contrast with Canada, which does not have a draft law. Eighty thousand volunteers have been trained and are in service for England. About ninety thousand more volunteers are now.in training.

While in Canada we gained hums- ledge o f how ftaaaeM matter* differ from what w# have fct.tbe U, S. First the banks in Canada cannot loan money on real estate which accounts for the great stability o f the financial institutions even in days o f panic or b^on prosperity* No inflation pos­ sible, Most all loans on real estate are made through the life insurance companies. Canada has few loan houses, the three percept a mouth kind. No graat amount o f installment buying on motors; household goods, etc, It seems to be a case o f “cash on the counter”. Had tide plan been halfway enforced in this country we would not have had the financial ex­ plosion that upset every trade and profession in 1922. . r. I f you want to malt* money on a Summer tour yon should go to Canada* This is due to the exchange basis of their money and- ours, American money is based 10 per cent higher than tbe*Canadian dollar. Here Is how it works. We walk into a news store and purchase a morning paper costing five cents. We hand the clerk a five dollar bill, He next hands yon hack, fifty cents which they call exchange. We are then given four dollars and ninety-five cents, in Canadian money* Thus we'get our paper and forty-five cents. The same thing'happened in a,barbershop where shaves are twen­ ty-five cents. From a five dollar A- mericanbill we pay for opr shave out o f' the fifty cents exchange and have twenty-five cents left along with "the five Canadian dollars,bills, I f you cash Canadian money at. the border for American, yon stand fo r a ten per cent addition to alt Canadian money to equal the value o f tbe 'American dollar. In_the retail trade prices on silverware, furs, clothing, wool blan­ kets, linens, etc. are-much lower than in the U. S* for recognized values on goods made in Ireland, Scotland and London- Numerous articles will spun ho off the Canaian market due to the war, - * $* AAA H§ m I ■ „ F iiliflili m if wa__--..a.

Y., last week*to Cleveland, with * former lobbyist that used to 'play his game around'the* Ohio Idgis- lativo halls. This gentieman had jusfc left Washingtoii and spent a few days in New York. He answered our ques­ tion on defense taxes about aa fol­ lows: "There will be no war taxes on liquor, beer Or wines as Boosevelt is dead set against it. He says southern tobacco growers will have an answer to their prayer of.no more war taxes on all tobacco products. Southern congressmen would hot support -such taxes." Instead he says we will have more taxes on automobiles, oils, gaso­ line, rubber tires, electric refrigera­ tion, silverware and jewelry. Congress has not yet made' much headway op new income taxes but there will be heavy increases with many more new income tax payors to be added this year. The latest proposal for new taxes in to tax gambling outfits like slot machines, It is proposed to make the first tax $25; a |5 tax on all other kinds of vending machines; and a ten per cent tax on typewriters and office equipment;’ The Hess incident is not creating as much comment in public or even in local groups aa has the new lifleup of Germany against Russia, the lat­ ter being pictured for years as the "great human kilter." With Hitler centering his gunfire on the rich grain, ore and oil fields in Russia, there is Speculation as to'just how long Rus­ sia can hold out, FeW people have any sympathy for Russia and think this country is binding itself with a Communist nation even to fight Hit­ ler, Just How long Russia can last the average report is three to four weeks, Russia with ah uneducated army and tanks no heavier armed for protection than water tanks, the Ger­ mans seem to be marching with more or less ease toward Moscow and Sta­ lin. When that happens the public expects to see Russia turn and run. Russian Communism has never been worth much consideration by Ameri­ can citizens, and the war will not change public sentiment much. We have ho faith in Stalin, little less in Mussolini and none at all in Hitler. Independence Day brings out a new feature to the Holiday period when in a number of cities all business will bo suspended on Saturday following the Fourth.

You stated thatfarmers could not come to ' any conclusion apd might find it difficult to reconcile the difference in these two reports. You inferred in this article that the difference in the two reports might be doe to the fact that Messrs. Mason, Bradfuto, Stohebamer and Eavey drew two salaries—one out of funds allotod toto the farmers and the other direct from Washington, You invited a statement ;from the county com­ mittee to clear ujp,the .discrepancy. .These articles have been called ,t o our attention and we have taken the trouble to check the seeming discrep­ ancy. Under date-of April 19, 1941, Congressman Clarence J, Brown Made a request toj the.Secretary's office for tural Conservation office. We are sending-this record, to you as a matter of information. This office does not believe that the' inference that Messrs. Mason; Bradfute, Stone- burner and Eavey were drawing two salaries was any particular credit to anybody. There is -no secret as to the expense of any county. This can al­ ways he secured through the proper channels. As you.undoubtedly'know, it is not possible to draw salaries out o f Federal appropriations, from'two different sources. * , This office is pleased that from time to time you will publish AAA informa­ tion and feel suro 'that you will be glad "to explain to your readers the discrepancy in the treasurer’s report and the report procured by you from tbe Department o f Agriculture. It should be noted that the treasurer’s report is complete for all county as­ sociation expenses,while the report re­ ceived from the Department of.Agri­ culture carried only those items as Were requested by Congressman Clar­ ence J, Brown. • Yours very truly, Signed; Elmer F.
