BROWN Member of Congress, •..Seventh Ohio District C j President Roosevelt’s Annual Mes sage to Congress on the jState of the Union last week met probably the .coolest reception ever given any such official report in the country's his tory. A majority of the Congress has been openly critical in comment -1 ing on the message, which is general ly accepted as indisputable evidence that Mr. Roosevelt is a candidate for .a fourth term. The critic^ point to passages in the ’address promising increased prices to farmers* lower food prices to consumers, and numer ous benefits to veterans, as being purely for political purposes. The President also specifically suggested . heavily increased ’ taxes, a continu ance, of the renegotiation of war:-con tracts, maintenance and expansion of the food subsidy program, re-enact ment of .price control and economic stabilization laws, and the passage of 'a national service law whirl would make, all. men between 18 and 65 , and all'women between 18 am 50, subject to working when., when where and how the government or ders.

In as much as the Plain Dealer is the recognized Democratic or gan in Cleveland, the largest city in the state, we reproduce the two editorials knowing that the so-called Democratic papers supporting, the horde of New Dealers in federal salary, would not betray the Com munistic group running the government after having stolen the name and party emblem of the Democratic party. Mr. Roosevelt of course has no particular love for the Democratic party as a political party representing the views of Jeffcrsoii, Cleveland or Wilson. In a pub lic statement he (Roosevelt) once remarked that lie did not owe the Democrats everything, because there were not enough of them to elect anyone. That was a free and open statement probably made in the mostiserious and truthful manner. * In as much ns a Republican paper, might point out some grafting in the New Deal operation of war contracts or disagreement of homo or foreign policy/the New Deal bell-ringers for Roosevelt'-IIopkins Wallace, Knox,and the inner or palace guard at the White House, begin to shout "isolationism” hinderance to the War effort, much like the pocketbook thief that grabbed the lady’s purse and running down (Continued on Page 2—;Etlitorial Column) The last chapel exercise of the se mester was conducted by Dr, Me Chesney,.

Sixty tons would only keep the mill at Franklin in operation about 16 hours. The scrap paper drive here is just as much of a necessity for the war effort as in any city in the country.
