T imMXiMliliiilHMIlllrillllMIIWMmtWWiiltrtlWMIMIIHHHWHH PREPAY, MARCH 26,1948 BUREAUCRACY HIDES DRAFT DODGERS The two: yeny# past has witnessed constant criticism of how the New Dealers were parking their yoqng friends and relatives in soft government jobs as indispensable servants ,uuj*ns war service. Exposure this week when General H dSSSv X h X t h e federal draft, or did until by ex­ ecutive order the department was placed under McNutt, ap­ peared before a House Military Committee and admitted he knew favorites were escaping the. draft but they were not.ea- 'caping service under his order. This le ft the matter m Me, Nutt's lap. I t has been admitted that ,some 100,000 young men, single in most cases, are in .government office service, Some have never even been classified, I f Congress never accomplishes anything else it should make public the names of young men .o f draft age now on public payroll and looked upon by citizens who have given up their sons as, nothing more than draft evaders. It cer­ tainly- justifies caustic criticism on the part of, parents who now know their sons are in hospitals, dead or missing, in point­ ing an accusing finger at the administration that winks at such unfair treatm ent „ , I f the situation is not corrected, now it w ill be later when the boys return home—if they ever do return following the present sweep fo r a world-wide police* force to enforce a “peace” that has no sight of being won soon on the many bat- tlefronts, if Churchill’s Sunday broadcast is to be a yardstick. THE SALARY FIASCO PURE FAKE Now that Congress has turned the searchlight on the Roosevelt salary limit order as coming from a dictatorial mind and not according to the usual legislative procedure, the public gets an'entirely different view. As dictated or directed the $25,000 salary limit after all sounded good to som.e people. The real' salary was about $65,000 but after income tax de­ ductions the net was $25,000. Companies paying official salaries above the net $25,000 will, not sell their wares any cheaper to the public, so there was no saving there. It was the government that lost under the presidential order for the most part all, $100,000 salaries were confiscated by the new income tax rates. * - Congress recognized Roosevelt had, taken a page out of the Communistic platform and Republicans and Democrats joined to set him right by removing his power to Change sal­ aries by decree. It was not in good grace for Roosevelt or . Any other president to limit salaries without reducing his own, or his income. Being the recipient of a.living hudget for some $350,000 for the care and upkeep of the White House, all of which comes out of the .pockets of the Income tax payers, he enjoyed luxurious living' at the expense of the public. . I f school teachers, municipal or county officials were to ask for increased salaries we are afraid the New Dealers In the county Would issue- a loud protest. Daily thousands of he,w jobs at fancy salaries are being created by the admin­ istration, for instance 5,000 meat inspectors at $2.50 an hour. The Democrats in Congress are to be commended in joining with the Republicans by exposing the salary fake as well as breaking down a dictatorial rule no different in what Hitler or Stalin would use. UNANSWERABLE EVEN FOR NEW DEALERS, Spokesmen for the' Northeastern Dairy Conference have asked a few questions which agricultural critics will have a tough time answering: “How can farmers be the cause.of in- * flation when 'they are selling their faritas to go to work in factories? : “How can farmers be the cause of inflation when dairy herds are beihg sold because of insufficient returns to pay bills and hire labor?, “How can farmers be the cause of inflation when the farms have been and are continuing to be stripped of all hired labor by th e attractiveness of factory jobs? “How long Would the protected, industrial worker stand it i f h e worked 80 hours per week instead of 48; if he worked for approximately one-half of what he is now getting and then was charged with being an “inflationist if he aaked for fu ll time pay” ? DOCTORS ARE LIKE ALL OTHERS The medical profession is not opposed to health programs that do not embody ultimate elimination of private practice. The doctors are no different than representatives o f industry, agriculture and labor, who oppose plans that would place government in control of the economic affairs of the individual. They are^aiike in their conviction that a people cannot lean on government too heavily and still retain freedom. For example, ' government-subsidized cooperatives ' can give the consumer goods “at cost.” Temporarily th e con- _ sumer" appears to benefit. Actually, he loses, because his neighbor is inevitably forced, out of business-the stimulant of competition disappears, quality drops, and economic independ­ ence gives way to utter dependence on a monopolistic provi­ der, government. I And so it is with medical service. The doctors know that present high standards cannot be maintained except under' a system of private medicine. They -gladly contribute free time so that no one need suffer for lack o f proper medical attention. During the war emergency, they are working night and day to preserve the nation's health. ‘ But they oppose health plans that would make government the prime dispenser o f medical care. , •MfllMIMIIHWlMlWMHHNWHMlIlWIUlWHmMHMHUiUim Consistency, •■where a rt thqu? A press despatch last Friday from.Wash­ ington, states that Sec, Wickard wants farmers to increase wheat aeerago “fearing a shortage”. .Only a few states can plant spring wheat and crops there are uncertain due to ^frequent dry spells. It is also uncer­ tain whether a crop can he harvested if planted as there is a greater short­ age of farm labor than wheat acre­ age, Consistency, where a rt thou? The Secretary o-f the Springfield Retail Grocers and Meat Dealers is quoted Monday by the Springfield Sun as saying he had been informed as late as last Friday that there would he no freezing of butter sales prior to the start of rationing. The freeze was ordered Sunday midnight.- Stores, in uties did a rushing business follow­ ing the radio annonneemejnt- One Springfield grocer opened.his store and sold 300 pounds of butter in two hours, The public is not being fooled. The next Washington movement should he “rationing of New, Deal liars” out to regiment the American oeople as they are in Germany and Russia. * Farmers have been swallowing the New Deal promises-and laughing up ;heir sleeve at taking the AAA bribe .money. Now thdy laugh from the >ther corner of the mouth with price filings on live stock hanging over sheir heads. I t is going to he a good lessen for the future.

The groUp has said, little of what they learned, Oue is quoted as saying: “It is only as a miracle of God that the people are permitted to eat a t all. It certainly,is not pos­ sible to eat if the nation is to follow the fads and fancies of the thousands of crack-pots in control of the gov­ ernment,” With a handful of fives and tens and an empty stomach, and then have to beg someone to- sell the necessities nature demands, the public may in time discover what it is to be a New. Deal experimental' guinea pig in the Roosevelt labora- fory. ‘ , We get a “ceiling price” story from Montgomery county. A t a certain •’arm sale where a number'of farm nachinery items under ceiling were jffered was a tractor. The auctioneer >r the farmer had no part in the sale, V group of these five or six prospec­ tive customers went into a huddle and lid their own bidding. Result-the tractor, brought $1,500; The farmer naturally was satisfied as the ceiling m a used tractor was $1,050 of that nake with equipment. The success -:ui bidder paid the farmer for the .ractor. In a few days, he took up he matter with one of the New Deal Democrats that live on a government mlary “as the sanitary policeman” if the OPA, called on the farmer hold-, •og the sale. The farmer that sold the tractor was bluffed into re- .timing $500 to the purchaser. NOTICE! TO DOG OWNERS . The circulation solicitor for a certain city daily tells the writer some amusing stories he picks up as. he makes his journeys over some dozen bounties for his paper.. He reports One farmer’s wife told the milk driver m the route not to return for milk vntil he could bring the usual .amount of butter each week. The driver tried to inform the lady she had bet­ ter not taka' that view as the gov­ ernment might send some official out and confiscate the milk; The farmers wife replied: “When they do they will have to do the milking, and wo have one cow you or a government agent can try to pail any day, but you have to supply your own buckets.” Tills same news agent thought he would sound out a farmer on present conditions and what he thought about ceiling prices on farm stock. This farmer had- sold his dairy herd due to low prices on milk at the farm, He was devoting all his effort, without a farm, hand, to feeding-hogs and pre­ paring to put out a limited com acre­ age. His-Wife had cancelled her or­ der for 500 chicks and was only going to take 100, just enough 1 for home use. They had their m'eat under cure and space in a nearby commercial locker. Not getting a direct reply to the attitude of the farmer on ceil­ ing prices, the question was popped again, Said the farmer, “My wife said there was a trick when I took one of them free things (pointing to the small building nearby) made famous by Chick Sales. ALONG FARM FRONT IS.

The mother got out ope of his letters wanting to know what had been cut outjby, some censor. It re­ lated to shortage of some food and poor cooks.. When the lad. learned what his parents had to put up with on their small farm, no help, con­ trolled prices and ted tape, and pros­ pect of more rationing, things did not go down well. The lad told his parents much more than he dare be quoted. The father was so incensed he 'related the story to the writer. .The New Deal fast time is evidently in for some rough treatment in Ohio, When good old Democratic Hamilton nty council votes to return to Ohio legal time a t the request of mothers, business and even war workers, there :s not much argument left. Of course is in many cases as told by a Dayton business executive, the- most opposi tion to the slow time comes from, golf players. I t is his idea, and the Daytonian holcflgs to a country dub in that city, that the golf club players this year should offer their services, where exercise is needed and spade a garden spot'for spme aged, widow that is going to need vegetables just as much as anyone else. A new point is raised on the garden program, just how will most persons get their- gar­ dens plowed or-evert spaded? Ever think about that? I t is interesting to hear ,6ur mor- ticians tell of the New Deal rules for burial. As is known there are to be no more metal vaults or caskets. Most firms that formerly made wood caskets discarded their - machinery long ago to make metal outfits. Now no wood machinery can be purchased In addition the New Deal has limited the use of lumber for a plain'box that usually is placed in the grave to re­ ceive the wdbd or metal casket. Sizes of caskets have been limited and large and small persons are to be stretched out or depressed into the casket of-standard make as the needs require, Tile yardage for trim­ ming has 'been limited and most of the latter will be muslin or some cheap substitute. The handies will be glass knobs with a round wood stick passed through for handles as no metal can he used The cloth cov­ ering will be highly figured in most patterns. All dogs without license tags will he impounded by the Greene County Dog Warden after this date, March 22, 1943. GreeneCo. Commissioners RAYMOND SPAIIR, Clerk. Gov, Earl Warren of California has suggested a combination of farmers and rural legislators to work out a state plan independent of what Wash- Vigton wants on the grounds Wash­ ington has no conception of farm problems in that far West state. The. farm end fruit interests in that state have turned thumbs down oft Wash­ ington orders. To repudiate the New j Dealers so reduced meat and other supplies for all' the' population that] starvation looms on many food items. It must not be overlooked Washing­ ton bureaucrats and 125,000 helpers eat daily in government owned res­ taurants when the common citizen in the nation's capital stands in line under rationing. We find few people interested in how hungry the bureau­ crats get* The New York Timjes carries a story about a telegram an Iowa far- cr Sent Governor B, B. Hickenlooper, Who also had an interest in a store a t Storm Lake, The telegram In brief was as follows: “My partner en­ listed a year ago. My stenographer. With advance informatirn as to what you are to be buried in under New Deal dictation, the next thing is how about the grave? No more steel or cement vaults. The ’ morticians now worry where they are to even get pine boxes. The cemetery man­ agement worries about who will dig the graves and1mOw the grass? .With New Deal orders to be followed, the braintrustors stop with orders a t the grave. It takes manual labor and no New Dealer's hands can be soiled by even holding a spade or shovel handle, Formers who slaughter^ livestock exclusively for home consumption on their farms will not-be required to secure a permit under the new. food distribution order effective March 31, However any farmer who sells dr transfers meat in any amount is re­ quired to seciure a slaughter permit 'rom the county U, S. D. A* War Board. Neither is a farmer who regularly ':eepa livestock on his farm more ’han 30 days required, to obtain a permit to sell, livestock; but he i3 ex­ pected to keep records covering the purchases and sales of livestock as an aid in stamping , out black markets K suggested form letter is being mailed to every fanner for keeping this'record, I t includes the date'of the transaction, name of buyer or seller, number of head, kind of live­ stock*, weight, price per head, and price per hundred weight. Victory 4-H Clubs . The 1943 club program is getting under way and all boys and girls from ten to twenty-one years of age are urged to enlist in the Victory 4-H clubs now* being organized. The, pro­ gram, has been geared to the war ef­ fort in order that all can contribute most toward winning the war. The work is divided into four main parts: (1) projects to produce and conserve food, (2) farm and? home labor that will increase production, .(3) health activities, (4) service activities. Enrolment cards and record books have been mailed last years members who are asked to reorganize their lubs on or before "April 10.

ON RUBBER STAMPS PHONEADaiHs 1432 Weather Delays Shearing Along with the shortage of shear­ ers the problem of shearing sheep has been complicated by the determination of old man winter to continue sitting in the lap of spring. Greene County has approximately 30,000 sheep which will yield about 240,000 pounds of wool. The' work is seasonal and farmers want i t completed before hot weather begins; but the shearing can not begin until it warms up or un­ less shelter for shorn sheep is avail­ able. Time savers include making def­ inite arrangements with the shearer about the hour when the work is to start, having in confinement a t the hour, and making certain that the sheep are' dry. WoVk is speeded up if a clean floor is available for shear­ ing and the fleeces will, be in better condition 'to Backyard Fruit Trees Valuable Backyard fru it,frees are valuable S i t M I I U () RKS <• iumu MrraooNDmorr • dayton .omo ^ S J 5 S 8 * , this ysar.

The Dormant Spray The Dormant Spray, the firs t of a series of timely fruit spray letters has been sent orchardi&ta of the county.' These spray letters are *a part of the Ohio Fruit Spray. Service and are prepared by T. H, Parks, entomoligiat and C, O, Allison, plant pathologist of Ohio State University. The letters are sent to ,164 growers In Greene County who have requested the service. The first letter on dormant spray gives detailed information on the pre­ vention of serious injury from European red mite, San Jose scale, peach leaf curl and also to help con­ trol rosy aphis and red- bug on apple, Spraying should he done soon, pre­ ferably on the green bud stage, o f apple and when the temperature is above 40 degrees. For apples or plums a three to four percent oil e- molsion or commercial oil spray can be used. For red mito, scale and. leaf curl of peaches a combination-of 3? percent oil With 6-8-100 bordeaux is recommended, - For curl alone use either 6-8-100 bordeaux 'or six and one half gallons o f lime sulphur in 100 gallons df spray.
