FRIDAY, DECEMBER 17,1948 ”< 5 he ,Q BYRNES WAVES THE NEW DEAL RED FLAG James F, Byrnes, who is o f f duty as a justice of the United Hiatts Supreme Court and acting: as a deputy President of the TJnltfed States, td keep Vice President Wallace from assuming dictatorial powers reserved fo r Dictator Franklin D. Roosevelt, did a good job o f waving the New Deal red 'flag to frighten the x natibn about inflation on the-subsidy question, “ Jimmy ’ was once a conservative Democrat from., ;the South but he has sold his political birthright to become the mouth-piece o f the Com­ munists in government control. Byrnes hates to see the farmers get more,for their products which will bring certain inflation However; he'never goes further than scrape the surface on just how much inflation is or will be due to increased wages or con­ tinuing the payment o f excessive wages to millions on govern­ ment payroll outside of the amount paid to those in the armed Service. No one would claim that fifty dollars a month and board to became gunfodder could be responsible for'inflation, Byrntefe take's the same attitude o f Roosevelt about inflation but he has no fear o f wrecking the nation by increasing the na­ tional debt by billions outside of the war effort; crooked war - “ cost-plus” contracts; and-wild spending in uncivilized nations all over the globe. Here is-the weakness o f the Byrnes appeal. ■ It is the appeal to cause the division of the city and rural popu­ lations on an economic problem. Byrnes, is no doubt part and parcel o f the New Deal group that is doing all in his power, fair and unfair, to hog-tie agriculture to lower prices, and later dur­ ing the days to come throw the “ Little Steel” formula over the administration shoulders to capture the labor vote that is now more or less on the fence. Byrne's overlooked many things as to New Deal'policies hr' could have discussed, all as important as the inflation bugaboo For instance we might mention the manner, in which war .bond ■ are now being cashed in the great industrial centers where mot, war money isLbeing" spend than imrural districts. Suppose lo". illustration, that farmers cash their bonds in the same manner and in.the same proportion as a matter of retaliation for the Byrnes’ attack on agriculture, or favoring subsidy and then ask­ ing farmers to meet their share of increased income taxes to pay the subsidy after having low priced ceilings fixed by the admin istpation. The American farmer does not need advice how­ to protect himself. He can reduce cost of operation and.go on a strike such as the administration approved in the early days o f the John L.'Lewijs close association with the President, or he can refuse to purchase more, war bonds. ■The old gag a- bout being unpatrio'tic will not scare the farmer fo r what is no unpatriotic for organized labor will not be unpatriotic for the mass, o f rural .elements, as both classes have sons in the armed •forces. The cashing o f war. bonds is not unpatriotic because it i s legal and the fo r sale loop-hole was left to-appease organized labor by a Congress under direct control of New Deal Demo crats, o f which Mr. Byrnes was once a member. „ We might fo llow up.a suggestion by Lbu Schneider,.busi ness analysist, that it is all bunk about-the labor shortage and . not enough bottles fo r whisky yet there is a flood of bottles and metal caps for wines selling at double the usual price. By tin way Mr. Byrnes, where does the scrap tin go that ig garnered in the tin campaigns all over the nation? We might asl; who finances this campaign? Where do the beer and wine in­ terests get metal fo r tin caps when,a. tin drinking cup cannot bo found on the market? Mr. Byrnes is it not a fact that many a good American housewife that wears the little “ White ribbon” mashes a tincan not having the remotest idea where the metal goes and fo r what use much of it is made? . - Mr. Byrnes your red flag waving, convinces only those who are willing to be duped, Y0ur supporters in the main on you - subsidy1fight arte the millions qn government pay roll and the organized labor, groups .that are not even trusting the adminis­ tration and use the strike method to get higher pay or low cost o f living at the expense o f the farmers o f the nation. The sub­ sidy may be defeated by Congress or if passed may be vetoed •but if so itjwill prove a: costly act not only to'the American din­ ner table but to the future sale.of war bonds. The fewer bonds sold to farmers as a group must be sold to the “ white collar” class or organized labor. If not the government then must rc- ■sort to the sales tax plan or greatly increased income taxes. Up- derthe subsidy plan the'farmer might get a few dollars but not enough to offset ceiling prices the administration can and will aud-rs-doing-t-o-him-at-pr-esent.—The less farm income the lew income tax thq-farmer will have to pay. Thq dilterence can .and- will be collected in the end o ff all labor, organized or un­ organized. Mr. Byrnes has taken the air to defend an unfaii and unjust program. Fears inflation but not a burdensome na­ tional debt. Since the Byrnes broadcast and following recent developments Mr. Schneider.predicts Mr. Byrnes will resign if the farmers are not haltered under the subsidy plan. If the Justice wants to retain public support and his reputation as a jurist on the highest court of the land, he hpcl better resign than _ prostitute his future to appease a lot o f gambling, grafting non- •compoop Communists"thatTFave 'captured the- control o f the Democratic party as charged by Senator “ Cotton” Ed Smith of South Carolina,' Justice Byrnes has a greater task in cleaning out his own political party stables before advising the populace on the subsidy issue. niuu»unnnmiuiiii.Mim>wwmM«i>mMiiimum>uinHinum» Who will bo the next city manager in Xenia?

The U, S. is tangled in a butter deal between England and Argentine, ac­ cording to New York papers. England purchased 500,000 pounds o f butter from Argentine. The butter landed at New York probably under “ lend-lease” or billed .care Uncle Sam. 'English buyers tasted the butter and said i f did not meet British standards. You know the English: want good butter and no oleo at any time. -The next move found the CCC trying to sell the rejected butter to the eastern city trade'but the smell o f ib checked sales. It was described b y ,the press as hav­ ing a smell much like a barn-yard. It will be interesting to know just how much of the Ohio income tax money will be required to pay Argentine for the butter. The writer recalls well the cam­ paign against Mr. Smith and we look on the coming selection of a new man­ ager by the present city commission, that ito doubt will, have a similar ex­ perience as the one that named Mr. Smith. Out of a haze o f suggestions to the commission how to proceed, we read- between the lines of Doctor F. Chambliss, present mayor, who wrote a short message to the local paper, that he was one of Vhe members of the city commission that named Mr, Smith in the face of objections from quarters that did not -have much say in making the selection., If we draw our conclusions correctly Dr. Cham­ bliss in a very polite way gives his thanks for backing his judgment-in the appointment of Mr. Smith some years ago and that the present elected city eonunissiorjers will exercise’ their duty once more as the.1city charter provides. All members of the city commission are, reputable and successful business or professional men able to make as good an .appointment as before. The Dr. in his printed statement made clear his'point, whether all who read it caught his’meaning. It was one of those thanks for the invitation for a ■‘buggy-ride". ’ The chatter about the city business houses and .public- of­ fices ate having sport to themselves over the Chambliss letter. •Every now and then some New Deal bureaucrat or congressman- actually utters the truth. When madness bobs out the truth surprisingly combs with it. It has often been said, there were more professional .New Deal liars "in Washington to the square inch than could be found to the square mile , in Germany or Japan. Congressman. May, Kentucky' Democrat of the- New Deal breed; has been fighting drafting of fathers for the Roosovelt-Churchill army and navy. All sorts of charges have been levied by the Kentucky Con­ gressman against higher ups._ Last Friday he openly charged that Gen. Hershey and the army and navy had not been telling 'untruths or white lies, but bold lies to the congress and to the nation. CONGRESS SHOULD CHECK BOND SALES ' The report from Washington relative to the cashing o f war bonds certainly is anything but encouraging to those who have purchased at a sacrifice and are holding on to them not only fo r investment but to aid, the government in meeting the.cos-'t o f the war. , The administration took the wrong view from the star in permitting bond holders to sell certain issues after an owner­ ship o f only sixty days. The government is making but smai' headway in finance if the redeeming of bonds now is about twenty-five per cent of the monthly sales, • Why should the soldier boys in distant huids be compelled to fight fo r fifty dollars a month and have the government force the purchase o f bonds on thoiq and at home, back ten and , twelvett°Uar wages and permit bond holders to sell their bonds at the end o f sixty days? Ir the boys in the ranks could register their protest it would not be hard to predict what it would be. The dollar is about the least o f a soldier's worry when he is in the sw2mp infested islands away from civilization. Home and loved ones no doubi come first with the boys in the service. We heard a city banker make the statement some time ago that he was utterly disgusted with the government in per­ mitting people drawing big war wages and many on govern­ ment jobs walking into his bank every day asking for cash. This class certainly knows that is not aiding the war effort. This same banker made the statement that he would predict not oiie percent o f the bonds purchased by farmers were being cashed at the end o f the sixty day period. This was quite a compliment when the New Dealers go out o f their way to pic­ ture to the city folks that the farmer is a gteedy person,* seeking riches rather than ..victory through patriotism. 1 Seventeen merchant ships loaded with war supplies were bombed by Germans in an Italian port. Five vessels, were Amer­ ican,and-with the cargo about 100 American lives were lost; fto bomber planes to protect the port. Roosevelt hud an escort of eighteen bombers, on his jo y ride. England had the torpedo poats when the Japs bombed Pearl Harbor. More blood spilled. The Congressman should know by. this time from the experience some of his colleagues have-had, that you had, to go elsewhere tiijm "Washington fo - get the truth about most anything. lop as much as one of the cardinal princi­ ples has been a lie in the place of the truth any time as long as you can get uway .with it. Lets look at the record: The National Guardirays from Greene county and the state were' called out for one year only. They have been gone.three years but they have nob yet lost their memory on New Deal promises even if they are parked down under in the* South Pacific away from civilization, -The brass hats gave out the word no fathers were to be called and at the same day draft boards were issuing calls on orders from Washing­ ton. When Senator Chandler and his Republican and Democratic associates returned from a world trip by plane anti p ivc m ’public report criticising a number of things about the'war ef­ fort, Franklin D. Roosevelt, without waiting for tiie ink to dry on publish­ ed .reports, branded what the Senator: and his colleagues had to ’ say as a "lie” . Then Kentucky spoke at the election for governor and went Repub­ lican as a rebuke to the Roosevelt attack on u home Senator. Chandler is not the first Democrat to be brand­ ed with the little four-letter word by the While House.' • Your gasoline m to be reduced In quality more than ever according to dictatorial orders under the New Deal. .With Roosevelt riding around the earth on war fronts, of course looking for Ihe “ truth” , accompanied -by only 18 of our largest bombers taken front war fronts where our boys need more safeguard, the necessity for gasoline is really groat and you most prepare for more sacrifice and,more walking, Those bombers consume 5000 grillons of gasoline, ten barrels, an hour. Now you can see why wo have to stive gas. Witli an escort of 18 bombers and the presidential air palace, it took a mere 0,500 gallons of gasoline an hour for the joy ride.

I f the New York Times is correct in quoting Marvin Jon.es, War Food Ad­ minister, he has been named by the administration to a new job in addi­ tion to controling food' production. It is said Jones is to have control o f all wages on the farms of the nation under $5,000 a year. As we read the report farm labor is to be fixed at the highest amount paid for any class of farm labor between Jan. 1, 1942 and gept.-5; 1943. It does not say whether piece work such as cutting corn.is to be the base or not. What excess prof­ it is found on farms is to be liquidated as far as the, farmer is concerned to keep down inflation. It will be inter­ esting to see Jones put his new plan in effect. It will be more' interesting to know how the farmers will take to the new regimentation. LeSter A.
