FARMER PICTURED A S BLACK MARKET OPERATOR While attending a convention in Cincinnati, we had an op­ portunity o f learning somethin# o f sentiment on the food situa­ tion, Some nine paching houses in-that city were then closed and these was very little beef to be found in the public eating places. Most city folks are convinced the farmer is the original black market operator on all farm products. There is strong resentment over government payment o f farmers for not pro­ ducing food crops. The. New Deal, backed by organized labor, has made its influence felt in picturing the black market as the basis of the present meat shortage. New Dealers have been using the situ­ ation for political effect on city folks, Farmers are held up for criticl&m as being opposed to the roll-back “plan of reducing the cost o f living, -Monday evening, Mayor LaCuardia, New York, took the air urging city folks to write their congressmen and senators to support the administration for lower cost of living, especially iwhen the government is to take twenty per cent out of-each" pay check beginning July 1 st. The Mayor went so far as to predic the loss of one fifth of the pay check with high prices would bring a hardship on millions of people. The Mayor ‘ wants subsidy collected from all citizens to pay processors, or farmers for producing, yet, he complains about the'pay check reduction which is but part of the government war financing program. Last March Chester Davis, one who knows, farm problems, banking, marketing and regarded a level-headed business man was named to head the food administration, Secretary Claude Wickard being, relieved of that responsibility due to failure to satisfy New Dealers, farmers or the public, Dayis was supposed' . to have complete authority but it was not long pntil Jimmy Byrnes, became the Charlie McCarthy and Davis had his hands tied. It is ndw said Davis never could get by the guards at the White House door to see the ittan that named him. -Monday. Davis sent Iris resignation to Roosevelt in a sharp letter with a suggestion he would be willing to*remain i f he could only get a chance to workout his program. The White House action was acceptance of the resignation as if discharged, the letter being anything but polite, according to political circles. Judge Mar­ vin Jones,, former chairman of the House Agriculture Commit­ tee was named to fill the Davis seat. Several days ago Phillip Murray, head of the-CIO issued a ■ statement that there must be a lowering of the cost of living for labor by-July 15th or the “ Little Steel" formula Would have to be scrapped and labor would not be bound by other agree ments. Murray wants a subsidy from tax funds to pay proces . sors for their lo&* The labor of processors is largely CIO. The farmer has no place in the Murray picture, Cong. Fulmer, head of the House Agriculture Committee, a Democrat, opposes a subsidy as inflationary. , With LaGuai-dia attacking the farmer; Roosevelt and his union heads organized against the farmer; Chester Davis, re signing becauser he could not get. New Deal support or rendei impartial fair treatment to all; Price Fixer Brown takes the air to defend roll-back price fixing, and speaking against the -cos- of farm labor in computing.parity prices; the farmer faces a solid front of New Deal opposition. The House o f Roosevelt on Tuesday shocked the natidn when Vice President Wallace gave the press a 28-page letter - attacking Secretary Jones, of the Commerce Department. The V, P. used language and made charges against his fellow cabi­ net member such as might be the words from a Republican in Congress or out in the grass roots districts,. It was one of those department fights over New Deal patronage. In the Wal­ lace charges Jones is accused of not spending the taxpayer’s dollar more freely. Jones holds the purse strings on many gov ernmental activity. He is a land-owner and millionaire banker besides being a Texas Democrat of the old school and not much concerned about the political future of Wallace or the Com munistic fringe trying to dictate a national -policy. . The White House reaction at a press conference Tuesday gave an opportunity to place all the blame for Nevr Deal bicker- . ting, treachery among high appointees, double-dealing against the public for political effect on •the American public- Ten minutes previously V. P. Wallace handed his personal attack to the reporters. Secretary Jones has not issued a formal re­ ply, other than tell the reporters that old, old story, “ Your an­ other" as the answer to Wallace. With millions of American boys doing their share and making their sacrifice on all battle fronts and success ever the enemy, it is with much concern that those in uniform as well as their parents and citizens in general; sit back and watch the “ Barnum and Bailey" circus clowns do their stuff for politics at a time when the nation stands at its hour of greatest peril, UNPLANNED ECONOMY ^ Every once in a while one of those revealing sidelights on .'the New Deal slips through Elmer Davis’ OWI censorship. The latest adds to the Harry Hopkins legends of a mis­ spent life. It seems that when President Roosevelt sent his favorite economic playboy to Russia to confer with Stalin last year, the tough old boy of the Kremlin decided he needed some alumi­ num - steel. This is finely tempered aluminum and steel Wire ' used to reinforce the wings and struts .of airplanes, slow and difficult to manufacture, . And Harry, of “ spend and spend, tax and tax" fame said, “Sure, Joe, we’ ll send it right around, But when Harry got home with his commission, technical experts broke the new* to him that he had promised Stalin four times as much alujminum-steel as the entire U, S. production in * one year. The amount promised would have lasted Russia for 20 years* ✓ The report is that President Roosevelt finally had to send word to Stalin that Hopkins had made & mistake with his giv­ ing ways. Now, now, don’t go asking what was Harry doing there in the first place 1 -—Madison Press JULY FOURTH NOT AS USUAL VACATION DAY With the' observance of Christmas as u national holiday, the ifext in importance probably has been Independence Day* This year the Fourth falls on Sunday, This year July Fourth will be a different day than in years past made necessary by a nation at war. Factories will be turning our war supplies. Far- iners will be busy at harvest; There Will be no fire crackers or Other explosives. Noise making has passed but under a new Ohi<yaw regulating the &ale o f explosives. The Fourth will also-find the usual tourist at home not on a Vacation jaOnt several, hundred miles. distantr'TTre and gas regulations will govern travel distances for the day’s outing. Much has been said about our City cousins and city busi­ nessmen lending a hand in war-time harvest due to man power shortage. Two good reasons could be given why city man-pOw- «r should be found aiding in harvesting crops. First it would bring farmer and business man closer together on farm prob­ lems. Second, the farm needs the help but our city cousins need not expect the day to be one for pleasure, A full sixteen hours In one day following the average farmer during harvest would be a good lesson to all urbanites, especially the white-collar t genu down in Washington, D. e . that think farming is a blue­ print game. , . , Now that the American people are aware that FDR knows wore about farming, food production and distri­ bution, forcing farmers to produce on patriotic grounds regardless of profit While organised labor takes the cream o f wages; how much Americans ought to eat to be healthy and how neces­ sary it is to consume New Deal liquor to maintain the morale of .the people, farmers are soon to be told when they cats sell their farm and how mtich they must accept for it and no more. It is proposed in White House-circles that a ceiling must be placed on farm land to check farm sales which if per­ mitted to go on would lead to “ infla­ tion,” Our editorial o f last week describ­ ing an actual result o f a farm sale by an aged couple brings to light a case of a Clifton pike farmer that had an opportunity to .sell his farm near town some weeks ago. Upon investigation he discovered it would cost him sev­ eral acres as income tax if the sale vas eonsumated. Without going into letail the person who wants to oWii i farm or sell one had better wait ind see what the new or increased in­ come tax. is to be following Boose-; reItV demand for sixteen billion more 1ebt next September. Plans now formed in New Deal quarters call fo r v twenty per cent savings; tax on all -lasses, from the lowly ditch digger o the highest salaried industrial leader in the country,. Aqd this is to be in addition to the twenty per; cent deduction tax from pay checks Parting July 1. ThiB new proposed savings tax .would be in war bonds tefussl to invest wpuld result in a ’ederal violation on the same basis o f 'ncome tax evasion. The American Legion is to ]be com- •nended in urging legislation that vould require every hoy or girl, of chool age to salute the American •'lag. You will recall the handpicked •lew Deal Supreme Court recently de- ided it was uconstitutionai to require uch a procedure,. The idea that the Jible teaching forbids worshiping an mage, the court set up the Flag as an mage and children should not be re­ quired to worship it. It is just an old ’ashioned -American custom being unked by the New Deal Court to >leqse tbs lunatic Communistic fringe -hat controls the Administration in Washington. The American people vill back the Legior^ in urging pas­ sage o f another law such as the court threw into the junk heap. Governor Thomas Dewey o f New York, at the recent•conference of Governors at Columbus' last week, lot dip a statement he probably'would •ecall now if he could. In giving an interview on the national food situ­ ation Dewey stated it would be well 'hat farmers do once more as they lid under Wallace, kill the little pigs, to save com for the dairy and poultry interests in New York and other Eastern states. Since that statement the government has confiscated 20 million bushels of corn in 96 big ele­ ctors in the country. It has also been proposed in New Deal head quarters in Washington that Roose­ velt should confiscate fat hogs and :attle fit for slaughter now held on the farms. Sone one has said there are 73 million head o f hogs in the country. How anyone could have facts for knowing the hog population has farmers guessing, It probably was taken on the same basis o f a Gal­ lup poll for Roosevelt. In comment­ ing on the number of hogs on farms with two different farmers we find they “ guessed their 1943 output high’’ neither has had fifty percent o f the number returned months ago. A citizen o f Springfield drove to the home o f a farm wife looking for a nice fry for Sunday dinner. He was informed he could have q. four pounder at ceiling prices, plus the cost* o f hatching the fow l which would be 50c extra or he could have it at ceiling price and catch it ’him­ self, taking hi* choice o f the range in. an open bam Jot, That i* one for the wise boys ip Washington to fig­ ure out. «• The New York Telegram says the New Deal Is trying to change the pub­ lic taste for meat. For instance there are chitterlings, pig tails, snouts aijd even tripe, lining of the stomach o f a beef. It is pointed out how thought­ ful the OPA planners were, one point for hog brains and three, points for hog snouts. I f historians are correct the over-riding o f the Roosevelt veto o f the antistrike bill by both houses o f Con gress in so short a space of time, is a new milestone in federal legislation Historians say the quick action on the veto vote is the most Outstanding rebuke ever given a President o f the United States. The rebukes on dif­ ferent issues, labor and subsidies, in dicates the Roosevelt lash is no longer feared by Democrats who realize now. their party has been-betrayed for the Communistic .N.ew. Deal. We have scanned comment of score or more editorial writers in the partisan from all sections pf the coun partisan from all sections o f the conu- try. There is little comfort fo r the “fire-side chatterer” , who has dared to take thv issue before the people as on other tensions. For instance the Memphis Commercial Appeal states “ It is deplorable that the Pres ident would not see that the nation wanted -fortti-right action to check the rebellious labor leaders. We can be hopeful that' the rebuke, the. people gave him' for vacillating on the home front will make him reconsider the handling o f some o f the other prob­ lems." * ’ ' ' , The Nashville, Tenn,, Banner says Congress swiftly and emphatically -escued it from oblivion: and wrote it into law.' ” Thank God for Congress which has given the government of the United States back to the people.” The Cleveland Plain -Dealer says ‘The qwift and decisive votes consti tote the most .stinging‘defeat by the New Deal, in Its teri years o f power/’ The Atlanta Journal, owned by lames M. Ciox) says: “ The American people want tjhe war prosecuted on the- home front with the same fidelity to the national interest as it required o f the A m y and Navy; They will not tolerate a*defiance o f the majesty of the nation.” „ Baltimore Sunt “ Congress has act­ ed because the overwhelming senti­ ment o f the people at large has been one o f gathering impatience at the in­ solence o f a tiny but strategically placed union minority,” Huntington, W, Va., Advertiser “The mass o f citizens . . . . . will ap orove the action o f Congress in tak ing the hit and going through with a olan for curbing strikes that is more After all that has happened and is yet to happen in New Deal circles, Farmers should hold back the sale of hogs, cattle, or poultry in large num­ bers at one time. Hogs are going, town day after day under government iressure. The farmer is marked for daughter by the New-Deal at the irgent demand o f Phil Murray,, head if the CIO. He lias given Roosevelt mtil July 15th to roll hack all food iricea, retail and on the farm, or ahor would not stand longer for the 'Litle Steel Formula” . ;Th^ i new ’angled yard-stick has about as much economic background for fairness ’as he New Deal plan o f parity price ’being, going baek to 1914 for farm irices. It is 1914 for farm prices and '943 inflation War wages. All proof o{ the Roosevelt statement that farm. irs: must work harder, longer hours' md for less, to aid the war effort, Your AAA is a part o f the system for toslaving farm effort. It is the Uoosevelt-CIO aid society, News and radio accounts o f an outburst o f applause in both the Sen­ ate and House galleries by soldiers, sailors and marines that had crowded the two halls when the vote to (over­ ride the Roosevelt veto on the anti- strike bill, Is but an indication o f hOW the hoys in service feel about affairs on the New Deal home front. Such demonstrations are not usually per- promising than anything the Presir dent has been able or willing to sug­ gest.” The above editorial expressions are from only a few of many strictly Democratic newspapers. From the Independent Press we find: San Frairiclsco Chronicle: “ The American people are tired o f the President playing politics with the war. The votes oi Congress t o over­ ride his veto are- plain evidence of that." Denver Post; “ Congress repudiated the labor dictatorship which President Roosevelt has tried to fasten upon the nation. It demonstrated in no un­ certain fashion that, in a crisis, it can muster up enough courage to break lose from the President’s polit­ ical apron strings and truly represent th€ people it was elected to repre­ sent.” Salt Lake Telegram; “ It is diffi­ cult to conceive o f any greater re­ pudiation o f President Roosevelt’s wartime labor policies than the action taken on Ihis veto o f the anti-strike measure by.Congress Friday,” New York World Telegram: “ Anger at John L, Lewis, and dissatisfaction with administration failure to deal firmly and effectively with the intol­ erable Lewis obstruction o f the war program, help tp explain this sting­ ing defeat fo r the PrmjMent, But, more fundamentally thaff that, it Was a rebellion against a governmental philosophy with which most o f the American people, like .-most o f the members o f Congress, were fed up to the teeth.” Cincinnati Enquirer; “ The prompt congressional action should serve as a curb on the arrogance o f the PreS- ident. There can be little doubt but that the well-considered opinion o f BOOmembers c f the Congress is likely to be bettor than the opinion o f one man, The White House seems to have forgotten the phase o f our gov­ ernmental plan, Congress, in em­ phatic fashion, has called it to at­ tention, Let it not be forgotten in the future,!* We have made no effort to Review here ,thel Views o f the Republican Press on ibis issue, It Is much the same as from the Democratic view­ point, The New York World Tel*-! gram review, as above probably rep* j 1 resents the greatmajority of Republi-; can editorial writers. While there has been intimation in reading between the lines o f the tem­ porizing by Rposevelt on this issue” it is apparent he dared to strike openly into the breast o f his once political ally, John L. Lewis has made-no pol­ itical charges o f any^nature against Roosevelt who accepted the campaign gift o f half a million dollars fo r the Democratic, slush .fund in a political campaign. There probably is no power, not even the counts, that could force Roosevelt to face Lewis across the table on any issue, even the adop­ tion o f the famous “ sit-down” strike method adopted a few years ago with New Deq) approval. On any o f these issues a statement from either or both would only be the “ Kettle calling the pot—black” . These are dreadful days for editor­ ial writers that have been supporters and apoligizers fo r i;he New Deal, There are other days that will wet the brow o f.New Deal supporters—an en­ raged public with pockets full o f money and unable to purchase food for the family table., As in ail things the innocent must pay along .with the guilty. . Washington Letter {Continued from first sage) ; on corn will be called as o f July 15th, with the expectation that much of. the corn covered by such loans will be forced onto the market. However, the answer to the problem most, gen­ erally advanced is to raise the ceil­ ing price on com to $1.25 or $1,35 per bushel. It is thought that any increase in, corn prices must come through executive action, rather than by Congressional enactment, in as mtxch as the President, a few weeks ago, vetoed the B&nkhe'ajd Bill which would have raised the ceiling price an corn. » For the past two weeks both the House and Senate have been holding long sessions beginning in the morn­ ing and lasting until late evening. Ten and twelve hour sessions have be­ come the rule, as every effort is being made to enact all appropriations ,be­ fore the new fiscal year begins at midnight June 30th, If all important work can be completed, legislative leaders plan a Congressional recess to begin around July* 10th and con­ tinue until after Labor Day: The recess resolution, already prepared, provides that the Congress can be brought back into session, after a five day notice upon call o f either the Democratic or the Republican leaders o f the.
