American blood has been running red for some days demanding more activity on the Pacific front as a protection to the boys that have, almost single-handed, with few in number, and only partially equipped with war im­ plements for attack or defense, stood like a stone wall. The news of this horror of all horrors is of course months old. According to press reports; General Clark wanted to give the public the story recently in a speech at Cleveland but the big tops in Washington refused, and probably had to consult Churchill first. ’ \ We wonder what has run through the minds of some fifty or more Greene county (men that heard a tip months ago at a . group dinner meeting in Xenia. They were warned that^vhen the story was told the public would awaken as to what had al­ ready taken place! The speaker could not divulge places or • events but he did give a good “off the record review. How the reports of what has happened dove-tail with, the speaker’s . . story qniy is confirmed today. There is no question but that a war event of months ago was held back for political purposes—even the list, of dead or missing is still held up. ' How could there be comfort to the enemy by keeping the American fathers and mothers in irno ranee when the1enemy knew before we did what took place. The Pearl Harbor horror is yet untold. Two high up navy officials were retired under charges so far as the public was concerned but ihave never yet been tried in military court. Both recently agreed to an extension of time after congress put the heat on Roosevelt, Stimsoh and Knox. To this day Roosevelt has: refused to prosecute these officers By this refusal the blame is placed on the army, navy, and ■ the White House. To try these men now would reveal they were acting under orders after having notified Washington days before as to what Japan was doing. Meantime Roosevelt was entertaining the Jap diplomats. Gen. MacArthur has begged for more men and more air planes and battleships but we have more than two million men lying idle in camp in England for months. In thje Pacific we have many Greene county-boys in the. 37th Division. Recent reports have given rise to wonderment for the safety of our . men in that sector. Tjie. fifty Greene countians that heard the descriptive talk as to how little our boys had in the way. of protection, and it came from authentic sources,' and then read the Bataan inci deiit only proves the story to that group was'a prediction o what was.to' happen if the administration did not become more concerned as to how Japan was entrenching herself at our ex pense, while we had men and equipment idle in all parts of the world, some corners where there was no. contest possible what- . ever. . '" / ■ Unless the administration gets more men and more wai , craft around Japan’s lane of traffic from one island to another it is hard to tell what, the future holds for those now in service It will be more speculative unless we center fire on Tokio as we are doing on Berlin. If the war was directed more from “Washington and less from London, the Bataan incident would not be the story of atrocity it is today. An enraged people d now demanding more support be given a(t once to MacArthur MOTHERS AND FATHERS WRITE YOUR SON NOW . Now that Franklin D. Roosevelt has come into the open , for a Mussolini dictatorship^form of presidential balloting that will disfranchise every man or woman in the armed forees ov­ er seas from voting for governor and other state offices, county and judicial candidates on both the Republican and Democratic tickets in behalf of his.,own campaign for re-election fo,^ presi­ dent, is proof that parents and all relatives of those in service • should this very hour and very day sit down and in their own way write letters telling how Roosevelt plans a stuffed ballot for: himself. Parents, should make it plain that under the Roosevelt plan not even is there to be a candidate for vice president on ' the proposed federal ballot. You can'also say-that Roosevelt - wants the army, to distribute the ballots long before the nomi nating conventions-w-ill-he-helrl. Of course he aSslimes-he can force his own nomination through the Democratic convention. Reports are current that Roosevelt campaign buttons have ■ already been passed out to the men in foreign service which is probably the background for the early vote, months before the regular election in November. The Roosevelt administration Democrats and the liquor interests shouted long and loud that prohibition was forced on the country while they were in the service- yet today Roosevelt* after sending a message to Con­ gress* demands immediate action on a Democratic-New Deal bill that disfranchises every voter in foreign service so far as voting for governor,and state offices on down to county coro- nor, regardless of the political party the soldiers might have • supported at home. The thought that a son of a candidate can not vote for his father on the state, county, or judicial tickets, should be all the argument parents need as to writing at once that Roosevelt is forcing dictatorship on his home folks while 4he boys in the front’ranks are supposed to be fighting for the freedom and liberating of oppressed peoples. Whether you vote the Republican or Democratic ticket, write your son or daughter that might be in the armed service. FARM GROUP OPPOSES SUBSIDIES Ohio’s Champaign county farmers are typical of many, and their reactions to President Roosevelt’s scheme .of food price subsidies as a means of maintaining price levels "may • therefore be accepted-, as reflecting a prevailing sentiment a- mong most farmers. , . . The vote against such subsidies as .revealed to D. I). Dowds, the county extension agent, showed that only 12 out of 197 approved the plan. Further than that Mr. Dowds said: “From my own observation I might add that I have never sat in on discussion meetings of local leaders when they were more critical, pessimistic and almost bitter, than I found them at this time,” ■ » The whole subsidy setup long ago was shown to be a po­ litical "device designed tq^placate the CIO organizations in the big cities. It sacrifices not only many necessary rights of the farmers, but it adds to the public debt in a manner to cause the very thing its, sponsors say it will present-*—-inflation The soldier v^ote has been the topic of the week in every quarter. The New Dealers hold out for the Roose­ velt Mussolini plan until they hit a snag about disfranchisement of every man in the service if - he wants to .......v- vote ffir state, county and judicial candidates, some of whom might be peronal friends or even relatives, We met a good Democratic farmer friend on the street in Xenia, Monday, and the first question raised was on the soldier vote and he had a son-in-law somewhere in Europe in the service. With a dash of fire in. his eye he let out a blast .that'would rock the'New Deal boat. He thinks .qothing like what Roosevelt proposed would, ever .happen in the next 150 years and the shame of it was he had to show his greed for power and selfperpetu- aticn first-and make the Democratic party the joke of the century. He does not' see how -a Democrat could have nerve enough'.to have his name .put on a county ticket and expect to be elected.

The Bataan slaughter of war prison­ ers and. how little protection the war department has given these men has brought heaps of criticism on the ad­ ministration. When you stop to give the matter consideration, Roosevelt had given England fifty destroyers and this left the Pacific ungarded by war eraft and few men on land. Regardless of' the fact no attention was paid to MacArthur’s appeal for more help; the administration was so. much under the' Churchill, hypnotic spell, Pearl Harbor was open hunt­ ing- ground and this brings us up to Pearl Harbor. The record’ of that engagement has never been given the American; people. Considering the distance and vast territory we yet are not strong in the Pacific ^hen we have two million well trained men ip camp "in England- whore most of them have been for months’spending American dollars monthly to heap, the British Gold Reserve in the Bank of England. We pay England in gold, which is unlawful money in the U. S. under the New Deal. Moving a- gainst Tokio as we have'Berlin,- it would not take long to liberate many hundred other war prisoners-—if they are yet alive. • Take a look at the editorial col­ umns of ’the rso-called Democratic press in reference to the responsibil­ ity for the Bataan horror or even the disfranchisement of soldiers, Repub­ lican and Democratic soldier voters to make possible' the election of “One- Man Roosevelt” the modern Ameri­ can- Mussolini politician; The Demo­ cratic press has much “to overlook” even the Canol Roosevelt, Stimson “teapot1 dome” up in Canada that I is costing the nation $130,000,000 and I the property then goes to Canada af-1 ter the war.

Last week the OPA in announcing higher meat points gave the public to understand wc were to have more butter for civilians; Mon­ day the War Food Production Board comes out with a statement that wo arc not even to have as much butter this year as. we had last. One day the old cow over produces -and the next runs'dry. When we question our men home on furlough about butter they want to know where it is going. Some say they never get butter but on Sunday and some times the but­ ter is “oleo”. Our guess is that the American made butter is •going-lend lease. The British never were strong for substitutes,- They always take theirs straight. man Several days ago Congress killed a New Deal bill that was forced by the administration to remove the tax on oleo. The Senate killed the bill in behalf of the dniry interests. The Roosevelt “oleo .substitutors” have started another bill on the way to put oleo on the market as unta-xed* but- ter. More oleo made into high ex plosives and soap would be in the in­ terest of the war effort. P u b lic Sa le !
