F R I D A Y , J A N U A R Y 19 , 1 94 5 , THE SOLDIER WHO DID NOT GET A SEAT The soldier who received a telegram that his wife had been killed in an automobile accident and that his baby was not ex­ pected to live, has had one day sure that will cover the en­ tire span of his life. Given a priority for a seat in an airplane only to be turned down because a dog belonging to a member of the royal family, had an “ A -l” priority, left this soldier brok­ en hearted. He Was comforted as best could be by buddies, civilians and those authorized to serve in such cases. When.a high rank­ ing officer appeared to await his plane, he inquired what ailed the young man sobbing as if his heart would break, his head buried in his hands. The heart of the officer was so touched that he at once offered the young man his “ priority seat’ on an other plane that the trip home could be completed as quickly as possible, and yet keep the dog from the royal family moving on to its destination in California. No story or event has ever happened in this county that was reported to this paper from so many different persons and in so many different ways as what happened at Osborn last week. It is to be regretted that the innocence of the dog had to be coupled with the unusual episode. Sponsors of the royal family at the ballot box must feel the responsibility to some extent in this case for the unwise use of authority not granted, common ci­ tizens has made it possible for a man in uniform to be forced to give way to the dog. » Now that the dog story has had nation wide publicity there . should be a congressional investigation to place the blame on the party or parties that issued the “ priority” which had to be authorized by some one under power o f the Commauder-in- Chief. You can expect most' any kind of a story to keep the blame from the White House, or is it the ‘ ’Dog House?” Some person in authority had to sign his name to the “ priority” and there should be no “ ducking the issue.” By what right has even the White House to issue the authority for shipment of the dog across the country in war time and have men in uniform totake second place ? Congress should act at once in justice to the men who were made victims of a joke by the dog act. The public is disgusted and the White House must take the blame for the dog belonged to a member of the royal family. If it belonged to a Chicago mail order house the dog would have been confiscated and ordered killed at once. SENATOR VANDENBERG TAKES THE BALL American parents who have boys in the service certainly can take heart since- Senator Vandenberg has started the movement -for peace founded on lines the public certainly will approve and take the issue out of world politics. , There is no telling how many thousand boys have lost their lives in the recent European struggle while world leaders squabble over who is to be this and that and who is to get this and that, with the war far from won. The Michigan Senator, has taken a position that has left the N ew Deal-Communist clique without a leg to stand on. In fact the Senator, along with Senator Robert A. Taft of this state, stand head and shoulders over the entire membership of the up­ per body in.ability and knowledge o f foreign affairs. Neither h&d had to lean on some European crackpot f or instruction as to the next move dr what is best for the American people. Churchill in his speech before the House of Commons has just as much said this nation had no foreign policy. This must be taken with some truth for Roosevelt has said there is no such thing a$ a signed “ Atlantic Charter” or anything of a regal or a binding nature. He describes it as just a guidance but this was not the impression given out following the Teheran confer- ance. Moreover we must not have a foreign policy for Roose­ velt has .abandoned the Cordell Hull program and sent.Harry Hopkins to Europe to blow up another bubble. There is no mys­ tery why Cordell Hull’s health broke. He was unable to contin­ ue the art o f traveling in different directions at the same time. These alone are not the only specimens of proof why we have no European policy. The nation has just witnessed the elevation of a British general to supercede an American general oyer American troops and war material, and this without pro­ test from the White House. Meantime we read what the har­ vest has been. Sixty thousand casualties and 30,000 of our troops now in German prison campsi The only policy the New Deal has had was that of world politics with none of the three leading personages being able to agree on the swag or who was to be the . who in “ Who’s Who” . The recent call for more men for replacement is another bit of proof that even the home front policy may not be what it should be: There are scores that believe General George Marshall has not had a free hand in the conduct of the war. There are more that are certain the war was secondary to the Fourth term and the public played as suckers during the campaign for votes. These events no doubt have prompted Senator Vanderberg to take the lead and start some peace movement that is not bog­ ged down with world politics and one that can be mapped out from the American standpoint now without sacrificing the lives of our boys as has been’done the past' few weeks. There has been an over supply of “ wishful thinking” on the home front, If the public does not know it Stalin will soon prove it that he is &man of few words. He has told both Roosevelt and Churchill just where he stood and why. Yet neither have taken the pub­ lic into their confidence. At first Roosevelt advocated a democ­ racy for all nations, large and small. Churchill said no, every nation should choose its own form o f government, of course he expected all such to keep England on the list for open trade re­ lations for British industry, Stalin demands pay for his part in the war and he has already taken part of ‘Poland and is to take more. plumbing We ir e located in the Wolford Ga­ rage Building and are equipped to do all kinds o f Plumbing, Heating and Pipe fitting o f any description.

S h i r l e y XENIA A m B h e The cigarette smokers that voted New Deal has found his meat rationed ‘ as well as certain canned goods. He j cannot get shoes for the kiddies with out a New Deal stamp. When voting little did ho stop to think that in time the less tobacco grown, the less there would be for cigaretes, cigars or even j a pipe. Paying the farmer not to raise tobacco was of course only a dream to buy go many farm voteB . The cigar­ ette smoker now finds he will be ra­ tioned his pack a week: like liquor. What a chance for the black-market operator! ,He who laughs laughs last. Mrs. Mary Norton, Dem,, N. J., is much concerned about the shortage in diapers but remarks on the side that the situation naturally is of more in­ terest to women-than to men. As to the shortage we are not fully inform­ ed whether she means “ hard to get” under her New Deal administration or that the.- shortage applies only to the length or breadth. I f the diapers e.re reduced as much as most shirts of , ajama combinations for men, we are .'earful the little tots may not have the proper-protection. . We are afraid Mrs. Norton has overlooked another .’eature about the non-interest on the iart of men. How about the midnight liange many a father has as .his share of domestic duties around the mid- •lour. With the ‘Shortage” in size we tre fearful “ father” might have his oven-temper. upset- trying to make ■nd meet with a “shortage” of^diaper A/ins under the scarcity o f metal. The missionary well known in Ce- Jarville and Greene county, that wit­ nessed the unloading o f electric wash- ng machines, sewing machines, elec- ric refrigerators and a score or more household appliances of. various kinds it a South American port, probably is i bit confused as to whether the war has brought as much sacrifice to our .outh American neighbors as it hus :o oilf- own people who are sacrificing onvenience: and also investing to keep Lhe war going. The isolationist ele- nent down in South America seem to mve a close acquaintanceship with iur New Deal brethern. It may be he fruit of the Wallace good neighbor policy "for a bottle o f free milk to all Tijhabitants daily" at your expense as .n income taxpayer. One o f our readers is concerned the inauguration ceremony on Jan- 20 may turn out to be one o f “ those foot- washing” events we have read about in history. Sec. Hull will not be there now that Harry Hopkins, Communist, has junked the Hull peace plans and will try to sell Churchill on the Stalin original suggestion made, in that fa- 1 mous North African conference. As the days pass the nation is getting a bit more o f the reason why Sec. Hull laid down his duties. He had broken down under the weight o f “ being all things to all men.” His successor is now in London and Ambassador Wyant says Sec. Stettinus has been brushed aside by Churchill and Hop­ kins and that he will not be at the fa­ mous conference o f "Champagne, Gin and Vodka when It meets, if it ever does meet again, “ W. P.” It may be for “ World Peace” but surface events prove it stands fo r “ World Politics.” Cong. Clarence J. JBrown has had no end of publicity for his stand on the cancellation o f red and blue food stamps, the New Deal Christmas gift to the housewives o f the nation. He has also taken the OPA to task for bunting congressmen and all others around when information waB wanted.* Bowles had set up two different de­ partments to keep the public from reaching him directly. The Brown criticism has resulted in the announ­ cement that hereafter there will be onyl one department between the sub­ dictator and the public. Brown sham­ ed Bowles on having so many men o f draft age in his department while the administration was calling for more manpower at home and a broad. When Gov. Lausche advocated the n-otection o f the “ 100 million state i-easury surplus” left by the Bricker idministration it must have been a bit jut o f tune to the ears aof the New dealers that advocate “ spend and tax” as long as its the other fellow’s money The new Governor does not want the sales tax repealed and that will not ue good news to labor- organization ^pell-binders that advocated the elec-' .ion o f the Cleveland mayor for gov­ ernor. Even the city tax spenders, that ribbed Gov. Bricker often because ne would not let them get hands in .he cash box certainly can get little comfort from the policy outlined by the Clevelander. 'I t must be remem­ bered that we have a Republican con­ trolled legislature and- the new Gov amor probably does not want to dis­ turb its temper. AH in all the Goverri- or is starting well.. The Bricker-id- ministration saved at every turn to get ready for that sure “ rainy-day” , that has followed all wars and will fol­ low No. 2 as the sun follows the day. That 60,000,000 jobs you heard about included a job for every 18-37 year old in the Roosevelt- Churchill war to control the world politically. Over in Dayton 'there has been q continued demand fo r more state rev­ enue, especially more o f the sales tax. All o f the papers in that city have backed the demand for more revenue. Now we read that the city has delin­ quent taxes amounting to $895,427 in these Roqseveltian days of war pros­ perity and even more than $339,000 in back assessments. In Montgomery county back taxes amount to $2,723,- 398 while unpaid assessments total more than three million dollars. The ..city-end county continues to vote the Democrats in office with no attempt to collect the taxes. Not so long ago a great shortage was found in one of the county offices and now we find a suit has been filed against the count, treasurer, a Dem., seeking to force a return o f fees amounting to $20,000 or more over a period o f years for’ the collection o f conservancy taxCs. Yet the taxpayers- in the state are asked to aid in financing a county that con­ tinues to elects Democrats that have hot done as treasurers in other coun- ies. It must be the New Deal fever that has effected electors as well, as the county and city officials. Washington Letter (Continued from firtt page) A Cleveland electric company need­ ed an extra man on the night shift. A day man was ordered transferred for the night. He refused and was dis­ charged. Then 400 other power house employees in three different plants went out on o..strike, or came near it. At the dead line for the walkout the government took over the plants and the company. Manufacture o f war ma­ terial is a vital industry in that city, The electric company was within its right to use men to keep the plant going, The laborer had ’ a right to quit if he did not like the orders. Just why should the New Deal Communists take ov„er a company that had com­ mitted no wrong? Why did the White House not take over the Union and its members for holding up war pro­ duction? Paul MaiIon noted colUmn- nist, stated a truth if he had never done so before when he said: “ Roose­ velt is a prisoner in the labor cafnp.” the Army and Navy is not making the best possible use of manpower al­ ready available. Complaints have also reached Capitol Hill from workers within the War and Navy departments that many civilian employees do not have enough work to keep them busy, and that many officers are assigned to tasks which civilians could well do. There is a general feeling in Congress that before national conscription o f men and women fo r civilian work in war industries starts the greatest employment of all—the United States Government—should put its ownhouse in order. Iucidentlly, the number of civilian employees on the Federal paj£ roll, os o f January 1st was near the three and one-half million mark. ALONG FARM FRONT ( Continued from firtt page) treating phosphate and this in turn, will hamper the manufacture o f com­ plete fertilizer. Fertilizer orders should be placed early. Congress is dealing with thei prob­ lem o f drafting men for war industry, Roosevelt has stated he desires such legislation, if he is not shadow boxing as he did months ago on the same is­ sue. . Tho labor leaders are fighting such a draft. We hope such a bill is passed but Congress should make the White House responsible for its en­ forcement, Congress provided the Tydings act to protect farm labor but Roosevelt and Gen. Hershey, Byrnes and other directors o f the war to con­ trol. world politics, are having farmers GOOD SOIL HELPS HUMAN HEALTH— Some of. the ills which take people to the doctors would be less prevalent if foods were produced on soils which were amply supplied with the princi­ pal elements required for plant growth, according to Dr. Jonathan Forman, a Columbus, Ohio, physician. Dr. Forman declares that starved soil produce plants which are less desir­ able for food than plants produced, on rich soils. Ho states that starving plants may cause nutritional disorders o f livestock and human beings.

They may still be calculating the prob­ able effect o f a drop in the numbers of their cattle or hogs or chickens. They know what they will be doing on those long winter days and nights before the ground can be prepared for seeding. Winter on a farm is the time for making repairs—loose boards in the farpn floor, that ladder rung that’s always uncertain, extra hand­ rails where needed, fence jobs, chicken houses, pig peris, smoke house, milking equipment, and the many little things that always need to be done in the home. Machinery needs attention, too, while it rests before the big spring push. Oiling, painting, replacement of worn-out parts, and a general go­ ing over to be sure everything is ready mean more to the farmer’ s ultimate production job than he may realize, WFA points out. Doing this work in the slack season make? breakdowns far less likely at a time when they would seriously hinder p £v J<' / A < Si" i ,".s - r 1 , Winter is the time t o paint and Sx op eld buildings. the business of getting land plowed and crops planted.
