Powers‘ a t the earliest opportunity. That the Rresident has already, taken the country as far as . -he can in the direction nf-war, without the ^repeal',or drastic amendment o f the Neutrality A ct is apparent. As this is'written thp Senate is debating the repeal o f sections o f the Neutral­ ity. Act to permit arming o f American merchant ships end the sending of srtch ships directly into the war zones and into belligerent ports. I f these administration amendments are writ­ ten into the law President Roosevelt and his Administration will undoubt­ edly/ take . such Congressional action as authority to proceed full ■speed ahead in waging war against the -Axis. ■v Jk-J • : ‘ - . . ■■ - . ' • . v-• . * • For a long time now Senators and' Congressmen, who have been voting fo r the various legislative steps in support pf Mr, Roosevelt’s foreign policy,'have been assuring themselves and their constituents that such steps were.; for the~preservation o f peace rather than towafcd' entry into war. Most o f them: have stated many times that they would never vote .fo r a declaration, o f war, or for any Steps which would lead to the‘ sending of American troops to fight and die on foreign .soil. But now that they have heard President Roosevelt’s Navy Day Speech, they must face the; realization, if they are at all honest with them­ selves-that if they vote for the repeal ^ Ofth e Neutrality law they are voting for the.equivalent o f a declaration of war. Also that in all probability it is the final vote they will have an op­ portunity to cast on fixing American policy as to entering or staying out Of' the .present European war. Of Course, the Congress and the country #re>being assured that'the w a rwe are Adging into, and will enter.fully i f the “Neutrality ta w t i’iit t t t t t f ia r t t f r t t only # naval war. However such as­ surances are being given by the same men who only a short year ago, and even since, made solemn promises and pledges to the people that the United •States'would not become envolved .in the,European holocaust. There is no such thing as a limited war. There can he tio certainty that*the spartidpation Of the United .States in the present War can be limited to naval acion. In- ■ iSte&d, there is every likelihood, re­ gardless . o f present intentions, that /once the United 'States"begins naval warfare it will not -be long until the. nation will be engaged in an “ all out. war” , With American expeditionary forces numbering into the iliions being .;sentover*seas.

Wayne Co. Farmers Ask AAA To Leave Court House , e * Farmer# Jn Wayne county want the AAA to ‘ move out o f the court house -Hand the sooner the better. By late September, 699 hgd signed petitions urging the oustep, based on the contention the AAA 'is strictly federal agpncy and not a part, o f the county government. The petition reads in part a s follows “ We ar.e opposed In principle to the methods and acts pf the AAA and .all officials connected ‘■thereto, in their attempted regimentation of/the farm' era particularly in regard to wheat marketing quotas .and penalties, which we believe to be unfair, unjust and un* constitutional.” The county commissioners, upon re; ACCOUNTING SOUGHT Ray Braskett, London, R. R. .3, seeks an accounting o f grain, now beiiig trucked to the elevators, aiid equitable relief jn a suit filediagnirist Harry Mc- Dorman, Springfield. The plaintiff1 charges he entered: into an agreement to sow wheat on a farm owned by the defendant. Marcus Shoup, Xenia, is the plaintiff’s attorney. AWARD TWO DIVORCES Cleve Kingfery was granted her freedom from Joseph H, Kingery, on neglect and cruelty grounds, and Vir­ ginia Winborne was given a divorce from Richard Winborne, Jr., on a ne­ glect charge, and restored to her maiden name, o f Virginia Kress. While .the Constitution o f the Unit­ ed-States provides that only Congress Kan declare War and fix American foreign policies so tor as war is con­ cerned, President Roosevelt in his tNavy Day address stated that-—“ we pledged -to pull our own oar irt the destruction of' Hitlerism.” Thus far Sno such pledge has been made by either Congress or the American peo- -ple. Thus far the Congress and the people have only authorized the giving sat :aid in the form o f munitions and ^supplies to Great Britain and the «thor nations fighting- figainst Hitler smd his allies. They have not pledged *>r authorized^ the’ use o f American sailors and soldiers in , direct and actual warfare against the Axis Poyr- ers. - I f it be the will o f the American people that this nation enter this war with its man-power, then such entry Should come through a declaration o f War by the Congress in a legal and *constitutional manner and not through subterfuge o r as a result o f seefet bnd unauthorized pledges, However, it tjow appears certain that, if the Congress approves the Administration supported attempt to repeal the Neu­ trality Act, the President will take such Congressional action as an ap­ proval o f the steps he I jsb already takeh find as a complete Congression­ al authorization for American parti­ cipation in ah undeclared war. It is fo r Buch reasons that the vrttes on the Neutrality Act amendments, duo this week In the Senate and next week in the House, Will undoubtedly be the most important Congressional ‘roll in this generation. CASE DISMISSED The case o f the Farm Bureau Mu­ tual Auto Insurance Co. against the Lang.Chevrolet Co„ Xenia, was dis­ missed without prejudice to new ac­ tion.' $50,775 DAMAGES ASKED Claiming the defendant operated his car at excessive speed and in a reckless manner, iWilliam L. Ches­ brough, administrator o f the eatateof r^ I ii^m '6 '‘CfiesbVou Columbus^ who was killed in an auto accident on Route 42, a mile north o f Spring Val­ ley, last August 11, filed two suits in common pleas court Thursday against Lawrence T. Drake, Cincinnati, driver o f the auto and the Kroger Grocery and Baking Co., owner o f the defend­ ant’s i.uto, seeking a total o f $60,775 damages. The plaintiff, son o f the man killed, charges Mr. Drake swerved to the wrong side o f the road, crashed head- on into the southbound auto driven by Mr, Chesbrough. Investigating offi­ cials had said a tree limb fell across the highway during a rainstorm and that the Cincinnati man turned to the left to avoid the limb when he hit the Chesbrough auto. . | . The Kroger Co. is named as owner of the car and Mr. Drake as driver. The $50,000 is asked in one suit, sole­ ly for the death of the Columbus resi­ dent, and the other action represents $7f5 damages claimed tp the Ches­ brough auto.. Cowan, Adams and’ Adams, Columbus attorneys, represent the plaintiff." ceiving the-petitions, assured protest­ ing farmers that they would give the petition every consideration. AAA' officials thereupon requested tht privilege o f circulating a counter petition. Opponents agreed to this but stipulated that the AAA has no right to consider signatures o f em­ ployees or cooperators in the program because pioney being paid from Wash­ ington is '‘bribe money.” The com­ missioners have agreed to this restric­ tion, according to Forrest’Campbell, a leader in the‘.ouster movement, Stfid Campbell: “ If they (the com­ missioners- don’t put the AAA out ia a month or so, we’ll go ahead with our petition. We've let up just now on account of wheat sowing. .“The case has grown hotter down our way since we were not permitted to vote in the election o f committee­ men who were to contact farmers in this food-for-defense movement. Un­ less you received an AAA check in 1941-you were not permitted "to vote. “ We were disfranchised.
