BROWN * Member o f Congress, Seventh Ohio District The compromise ton the anti-in­ flation B ill, « i finally adopted by the Congress, ism ore o f a victory fo r the farm -groups than fo r th& Roosevelt Administration. The farmers o f the country did hot seek any increase in farm prices. A ll they asked was, that fh em be no reduction, in the present prices o f farm products and that in the future increased production costs, including farm labor* be taken, into consideration in fir in g farm product prices. In the beginning the Presi?- dent insisted on legistative action that would have resulted in the reduction o f many farm prices, while a t the ‘ same time not only failing to, control wage rates, but actually authorizing a national policy o f increasing in­ dustrial wages by fifteen pen, cent, tinder the compromise legislation, ceilings are placed on farm prices at one hundred^ per cent o f parity or a t the .prices prevailing op September 16th; 1942, whichever may be the highest. The-new law also, directs and authorizes the President .to take in to , consideration increases in farm labor costs since January 1, 1941, in fir in g farm ‘ prices. Likewise the President is'directed to issue a gen oral-order b y November 1st stabaliz- b ig prices, salaries and wages on the basis o f September 15th levels so far as -practicable.' "However, the bill will perm it increases, in industrial wages o f as much as fifteen per cent above the rates of.pay prevailing on January 1st, 1941, . while the government guarantees to maintain farm prices, through purchases or loans, at not less, than ninety per cent o f parity. Representatives o f various farm or­ ganizations and labor groups have joined with Administration leaders,1in accept. 4 the compromise, 'Many large city newspapers, espec­ ially those in the industrial Bast, as well as numerous radio commentators, newspaper columiqts, and others who have iM? knowledge o f the-farm prob- - lem , have been quite, critical o f farm Organizations and .tillers o f the soil they represent fo r their insistence on Changes in the Anti-Inflation B ill as originally presented to Congress by th e Administration. An attempt has been ?made by the Administration leaders and New Deal spokesmen to plaim all the odium fo r the increased cost o f living upon the farmers o f the nation. .Organized labor* which has been a special favorite o f the Roose­ velt Administration, has been ,pro- tected from criticism^ through ac­ cusing Copgreas o f legislating in be­ h a lf o f ' the special Interests o f the farmers. In his Labor. jDay message to the Congress Mr. Roosevelt de­ manded that the national legislature fix ceilings oh farm prices, adding that he himself would take care o f “ stabalizing” wages and salaries. ;The farmers o f the nation, and the Representatives in Congress from the rural- districts, remembered that prior ■t o the passage o f the Price Control A c t,la s t January, farm spokesmen offered .to accept a pries ceiling on fa rm products o f one hundred per cant o f parity, providing a fixed ceil­ in g Was immediately placed on wages and salaries at the same time. They strongly opposed any wage control- Whatsoever, and the farm interests were finally given a price ceiling o f on e hundred and ten per cent o f parity as a matter o f appeasement. Tbu huriflted and ten per cent o f par­ ity was specifically approved before Congressional committees by Sec­ retary o f Agriculture Wickard and Prtae Administrator Henderson, and later was also approved by the Pres­ ident when he signed the Price Con­ trol A ct. In A p r iljh e President made a strong speech to the nation warning '"that both labor and agriculture would have to make sacrifices in the national interest, and could expect no further inoreaee* in prices or wages, Hardly had the President's words been u ttef- «d when his War Labor board decreed that industrial labor should have an' increase in wages o f fifteen per cent above the levels o f January 1,1941. Immediately many farmers began de­ manding a corresponding increase in crop prices, which represntod their labor. In the meantime meat prices went above 110 per cent o f parity - perk reached 1S&p ercen t, mutton 181 par eent, and beef 129 per cent o f parity - yet neither Price Adminis­ trator Henderson nor the President did anything to hold meat prices a t the 119 per cent o f parity rate as fixed in the Price Control A ct, In-* crease* in industrial wages began to b* reflected in increased prices fo r Charging wilful absence fo r pvore three years, Clyde Stamer seeks bis freedom from Carroll Stamer, res idence unknown, whom he married at Toledo October $8, 1928.

This reaches, the wholesalers who furnish coffee to retail groceries. The public has be­ come indignant and mapy think the grocer is playing favorites. This Is not so from our investigation. The grocer cannot get enough at one time to supply his trade. The ration books are not ont yet but it Will not be long until you can not get coffee only with a book and then you will be forced to take what ever brand the grocer has, just as the motorist does now with gasoline, One brand may suit your taste better than another but the New Deal knows best what you should have. There ate many reports in circu­ lation about the coffee shortage. The public will give in at all times to keep our boy* in service supplied but there is a different story afloat—a Combine to control the coffee market headed by big financial interests in New York and New Orleans, the latter the lar­ gest coffee port in the world. Do not find faul with yonr grocer. I f he had Coffee he would sell it for that js his business. The present sit­ uation is no different than With the coming meat rationing. I f you order Spare ribs the hones are included in your two and one-half pounds o f meat fo r the week, .Hogs everywhere and yet rationing is to be the New Deal order, Your vote in November w ill determine just how much longer the New Deal Com­ munism is to control decent American citizens,- * M Billy Lester aged 4, fell over the Cliffs at the rear o f Crouse's meat market* Thursday morning sustaining numerous bruises, H e was discovered by Herman Bailey. Dr. Donald Kyle rendered medioal aid. The "poor little freshies” were sub­ jected to the rigors o f Freshman Week at Cedarville College this week. Highlights o f the action were the fishing stunt down-town Wednesday, noon and the annual Tug-of-War at Willow Bend Thursday morning. O f course, there were other directions which the freshmen had to obey. One o f them, Rule 8 for boys and girls states that ” nq Freshman may hold conversation without saying first, 'May a poor, green, innocent Fresh­ man express his viewpoint?” One o f the strict rules which boys must observe ail year is that no high school letter can be worn by him pn the col? lege campus. Some o f the boys looked very at­ tractive *Thursday in their make-up and girls dresses, but the girls had trouble trying to do so with the a** prong and braided hair which they were.required to Wear along with no make-up whatsoever. Boys o f the* Freshman class have been enjoying ( ? ) rides through the courtesy o f upperclassmen during the past two weeks, but all was forgiven and forgotten Thursday evening when the Freshmen were adjudged as fu ll- fledged members o f th etudnt body at the YM-YW Mixer. The annual mixer was held in the gym. Dancing and games were held with the “ Y ” officers in charge o f arrangements. The college student body was the guest o f the local high school Tuesday morning when Rev.- and Mrs. Robert Savage presented a program. Mr. SaVage led the group in singing and also sang a solo. The young couple rendered vocal duets which were, greatly enjoyed by the audience. Mrs. Savage played a clever arrangement o f the Bible song, “Jesus LOVes Me” , in musical tempo o f various countries. This eager young couple will leave in a few days fo r South America where they w ill do missionary work. Mr. Savage issued a challenge to the youth o f to-day to “ follow the Lord and not be merely one o f the crowd”. He said that he was inspired by the Lord to his chosen field, everyone should be led by the t o r i to a use­ fu l profession. The student body and faculty wish them the best o f good luck oh their wonderful new undertaking. Superintendent Bartels o f the high school thanked the couple for the pro­ gram and expressed a desire to keep the dose cooperation which the high school, and college have had in the past.

Greene County Short; But So Is New York Greene county did not meet the war bond quota fo r September by $80,000, the sale amounting to $127,900. New York state is credited with being short the past three months, which in­ dicates the Roosevelt influence must be slipping in the home state. With the largest city, having a population about that o f Ohio, credit is due the midwestern central states where it is pictured irt the East1that the west is indifferent to the war effort. The drop in. bond sales in New York is due to Democratic politics according to reports, Packers To Force Cattle Price Down George A , .Casey, president o f the National Independent Association o f Meat Packers, said today a “ famine” o f choice beef will occur In the next 10 days in sections remote from cattle raising areas because o f a new Whole­ sale price ceiling fixed by the OPA. The ceiling o f 23 cents a pound effective today, will force packers to- handle choice beef at a loss, Gassy said, and as a result they will cease buying meat fo r slaughter in the hope o f forcing down the grower’s pries.
