FRIDAY MARCH 2,1945. A DOSE OF CIO MIGHT BE A GOOD THING We read with considerable interest editorial comment in yarious newspapers over the resignation of several high offici­ als o f the Ohio Farm Bureau over disagreement on a matter of policy, a disagreement with Murray D. Lincoln, secretary of the state organization and head o f several branches. It seems Mr. Lincoln is enamored with the CIO labor or ganization or some form of such a group for farm labor. We have no idea of the extent of Mr. Lincoln’s experience as*a dirt farmer, or ’whether he is just one of the “ behind the desk” agri­ cultural advisors that thrive as a white-collar worker. So far as the actual break between those who have resign- end and Mr. Lincoln are concerned the public has not received all the background evidently. We are inclined to think Mr, Lincoln has taken a page from the New Deal textbook since he was one of the favored or select chosen at a recent conference at a famous summer hotel, where New Deal, ideas on the food problem was foremost before it was more popular to play up “ peace and world politics” to keep the’ public mind o ff the ever growing causalty list. We have canvassed some of the editorial support of the FarmlBureau Secretary and we find it comes from those who preach the gospel of the New Deal for everything and every­ body . Halfbaked socialistic writers hiding from public view as exponents of.Communism, take the side of Mr. Lincoln and his organized labor views for the farmer. It is a case o f ‘birds of a feather” from outward indications. If the farmers of Ohio and the nation want organized la? bor to take over their business, as has been done with industry, there is no better time than today for the first step and this Without delay. It has been pointed out by some writers that 75 percent of the labor-of the nation is now organized under the New Deal formula and the farmer must get on the band-wagon. We can hardly imagine the experienced farmer of today giving up his active management, which must come under any form of the CIO, AFL or Farmer’s Union. As a guide the far­ mer might canvass the picture of labor unions striking in De­ troit because eight employees were fired for loafing when they were supposed to be making war airplane parts for the boys at the front. Even the New Deal- has not ordered the men back to work at this hour and 13,000 men are on strike Under labor control even out of Washington the farmer will not set the hours of labor, nor will he decide what is a day’s work, say in cultivation of a crop or harvesting same. He will have no occasion to arise before day-break because labor will not start before eight in the morning and. cease at four in the afternoon. He will find under New Deal rules that farm labor must be given fifteen miuutes before quitting time to ‘wash up’ . If a field is some distance from a barn it w ‘11be the duty of the farmer to transport the labored to his task; just as the coal op­ erators must do for the minors. He will be told what constitutes a days work just as is done today in automobile tire factories and even in most war plants. Later the farmer will be tolddie cannot sell his grain or live stock only where it will be handled by organized labor. This is the rule with citrus growers in the South today. The farmer so far has had little opportunity to get acquainted with* how New Deal organized labor works other than through a few strikes, and few farmers ever dream that he will be faced with the same demands as hasjndustry. Probably Mr. Lincoln wants to get his farm followers lined up early for what is coming and .what has long been planned by the Wallaces, the Wickards, the Mur­ rays, the Greens and the Hon, John L. Lewis, who now has the dairy farm works organized in many places. Mr, Farmer knows little about deducting monthly labor unibn dues from the pay check. Nor the social security tax de­ duction and keeping reports for the government other than the income tax. If it were possible the American farmer should be given a six months taste of organized labor control. Some of these days we will have candidates running for governor in Ohio and campaigning for organized labor on each and every farm. If 75 percent of the labor is now organized, why would not that percentage give any Candidate a big lead when it came time for the election officials to tally the vote. Mr. Lincoln may be thinking in advance of his associates When considering or­ ganized labor as a coming potential problem on the farm. Mr. Lincoln might have political aspirations. If so he can count on a large share of the 75 percent organized vote. ■ • ■•- .* ;•v ’ pis FERTILIZERS • I T U R D Q U A L I T Y JMSUKi MTTIt (ROM N .w , more than » v t r ksfars, fartlllMTCofMMTMtquality o«lor of tho Jayf Utoro’f no room fuT ojcyorlmonlaUoawlfh bigger onA hottor ytohb Ntbo predated to food « m H m at war.

No doubt most citizens ap­ prove o f the order. The .sore spot is over the fact that the New Deal took credit for widing out all prohi­ bition, and now turns to a War time order that may in the end lead to something else. Business people have for some time been critical o f the’big city night clubs. Religious organiza­ tions feel that more money was being spent there by many than could af­ ford it. Another feature o f the li­ quor trade is the new order under the Lausche administration extending the liquor rationing period from two to three weeks. We recall how certain Democrats stood on Green street in Xenia and called attention to the li­ quor store customers that Gov. John W. Bricker was trying to bring on prohibition when the-first ration was ordered. This came after the New Deal rationed liquor to state stores under Republican management. The Democrats in Ohio are not issuing as much .liquor as was done before the Lausche administration took office. The midnight curfew has hit all electric and power companies harder than even night clubs. Then the gov­ ernment ordered all outside and win­ dow elctrical display discontinued. Theatres and department stores wel­ comed this order for they did as much business with dark windows as light and then all stores were on equal footing. Prom the profit standpoint the loss.of this business will be re­ flected in yearly earnings, yet you do not hear o f any squawking from that corner. Paul Mallon in his Monday col- lum calls attention to the fact we are nearer adopting Communism than aver before. This paper has pointed out that fact time after time. Stalin won eyery point at the “ Big Three” Conference. You were told this war was not to grab territory but to .put the world under-some form o f democ­ racy. The first dash out o f the box. and Stalin grabs half o f Poland and Roosevelt and Churchill give consent, which they would have to any way he- cqpse Stalin tells them what he will do. Poland is to get part of Germany. Poland’s richest agricultural and mineral lands taken by force from a sountry ravished by Hitler’s forces, Thar* h u been tote* unusual oom* m«at about X**i» foliowing * talk some time ago l y Ed Bath, lobbyist fo r the Ohio Farm Bureau. His talk was along the line o f the co-operative movement and Mr. Bath used an event in his own family, unusual as it may be, to illustrate his point, ,Mr, Bath’s fatlier, like a Jot o f other fathers, died and o f course had to be burled. Prob­ ably sentiment wsb more dominant in the hour o f family mounting than it was the night Mr, Bath spoke before the farm group. Economics was the point in mind on how much cheaper the Bath family could have buried the father under the co-operative way than what it coat by having the lead­ ing undertaker in Wilmington, who has an elegant and spacious funeral home, the very best in funeral equip­ ment and assistants to render service on such an occasion as most every family desires in such a time. The Wilmington firm has an investment o f many thousand dollars and equip­ ment; including motor vehicles that carry a high overhead for upkeep. There are so many- ways Mr. Bath or any other son could save money in the burial o f their loved ones. For in­ stance there is the cheapest kind o f a pine box trimmed in cheese cloth such as the cities use for “ pauper” funer­ als. To save more money arost any old suit o f clothes would Up, ''some­ thing like a recent victim o fW m d War II had in Xenia some months ago. The funeral cortege display iis not a necessity when a cheap pickup truck could be used. After, all it is up to the family how much it should cost to bury its own dead. Higher standard o f living naturally calls for a. higher standard for burial. The old days o f the.ox-t 'am and wagon are gone on the larm of today but there is plenty o f back-ground for any and all that want to “ save more money on the burial o f their kin." Our exper- ■ ience is that Mr. Bath would have a hard time getting labor to dig a grave under New Deal standards as was the case during the time Mr Bath re­ ferred to in his talk. Yet, even that can be overcome today* by getting the neighbor men to dig the grave as a matter o f applying economics in the burial o f the dead. No wonder busi­ ness men smile aB they comment on the Bath illustration on how to bury cheaper. FATHER OF HOT.

He wants ou f soldiers kept in that country to do police duty. Let’s hope he picks more Democrats for the job than Republicans. We have an idea that some ten million parents in this country will have a say when it comes to keeping our boys abroad after Germany collapses. The organ­ ized labor kings want these boys kept abroad so they will not get back to take the places in factories now held by dues paying members. That is part o f the Roosevelt-Wallace idea of. the 60 million jobs.' They have a start now with ten or twelves million o f our men on government pay— $50 each month, not $10 a day. A Cincinnati youth is reported dea'd after, being in service only four months-. There are thousands o f oth­ ers of that age abroad now. When the 18-year old class was asked fo r the promise was made than none would be sent abroad under a year. Now we hear “that 4-month trained boys have not even been trained to protect them­ selves. Senator Robert. A. Taft has taken up the fight to force the ad­ ministration to make good its prom­ ise. Yes, there is a local five month boy without the year's training now at the front in Germany. No need to go farther if you want to investigate. He was sent as a replacement in Gen, (Blood and Guts) Patton's army and is at the front on German soil. Have you heard at any time that a Roose­ velt son was with Patton’s division? Senator Byrd, Virginia Democrat, issued a statement a few days ago that the country now has 11,000 more Democratic slackers behind govern­ ment jobs than a few months ago. He says the New Deal now has more than 350,000 slackers on government payroll around Washington that are of draft age, This Bhould be interest­ ing reading to Democrats that have boys in service. We hear every day about drafting farm boys yet FDR cleared a CIO organizer o f draft age on the ground that his -work was a necessity. Sen. Byrd doeB not thing much o f his party that is hiding so many thousand yellow slackers. That Is one reason why farm boys are be­ ing called to the colors. Farmers can cake a leaf from John Lewis’ book. Go on a strike. Eight men in a De­ troit plant were fired last week for loafing on the job when Urtcld Sam wants more production. Then 11,600 employees walked out on strike and are still out. Why should the farmer worry about production? Roosevelt takes over a Chicago retail store to meet the demands o f the CIO but he never has touched a labor organizer or a labor striker, nor will he if he. has the “ wdrk or fight” bill. i A coal oil explosion while starting a ,fire in the home o f Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Palmer, Sr., Xenia, Monday, claimed the lives o f three . children, Harvey r., 11 and David, 6, who were trapped by the flames, and Donald 4, who died later. The father is in a critical condition. The mother only suffered minor burns,' A fourth son, ames, 13, escaped injury. Coroner H. C. Schick on Monday rendered a ver­ dict o f accidental death. The funeral was held from ;the Neeld' Funeral Home for the three children.

Cooking With Dried Egga Although the wartime egg-drying industry sprang up largely because the dried product is easier to shij to our armed forces, it seems likely that dried eggs have enough meril to compete for the favor of house* wives after the war. Indications are that dried egg pow* der tends to deteriorate somewhal in storage, particularly if occasion­ ally exposed to the air. Samples kept at room temperature for six weeks become less soluble, mors acid, and developed “ off” flavors Under refrigeration, Ogg powder kept as well for five months as it did at room temperature for six weeks. Improved methods of pack­ aging should result in a better keep­ ing product.
