THE TRUTH ABOUT “G I JIM’S” WAR INSURANCE W e have heen receiving considerable literature from d if feren t veteran organizations on the New . Deal war insurance that our men in service take out, as a protection to wives, child ren , fathers and mothers or brothers and sisters. Old line in­ surance companies do not carry war risk and the government is the only agency that could do such- The government does not finance the insurance directly fo r the premiums received or the amount deducted from monthly pay checks goes to pay bene fits or loses. Most o f the men in service subscribe fo r a definite amount o f government war insurance, say $2,500,"$5,000 up to the limit o f $10,000. I f the service man meets death in action the public as well as the fam ily naturally expects the government to pay the amount o f the policy, because the premium is deducted from the monthly pay check o f $50 i f he is a private, It is surprising how few peop le understand the plan o f the government war risk insurance. I f the soldier meets death and has made his w ife benificiary, you naturally would think his $10,000 policy would be payable to his w ife as is the rule o f the old line companies. Not so with the New Deal policies. This w ife would only get $50 a month over a period o f years. This soldier who gives his life f o r his country may hav&two children ’ but they do not participate fo r the w ife and mother is the sole beneficiary. Should the mother die, say at the end o f two years, the insurance the "G I Jim” paid fo r is cancelled. The children may be le ft without a penny. The same would apply i f the fa ther o f “ G I Jim” was beneficiary and should die , the mother o f “ G I J im " cou ld not expect any o f the pension paid f o r by her son. I f the w ife is benificiary and survives her husbaid, she can draw $50 a month fo r 16 years and eight Ynonths to get the full benefit o f .the policy o f $10,000. How could a mother with two children get along on the insurance payment o f $50 a month even under the New Deal .low cost o f Jiving under ceiling prices. There would be no provision possible fo r this mother to own a home- out o f her husband’ s insurance; There would be no way to educate the tw o children out o f the monthly allowance. It is a pure case o f “ G I Jim’s” premium dues in most cases stay­ ing in Uncle Sam’s cash box . It is no wonder the d ifferent veteran organizations are urg­ ing congress to take some action to correct this fraud, not only on the service men but on the beneficiary, who ever it may be. There is one more thing the veteran organizations should take up and that is the return o f the bodies o f all men who fall in action on foreign soil i f a request is made by the parents, or the w ife in case o f being married. There are millions o f parents thfit would rather have the remains o f their own flesh and b lood resting on the fam ily plot at home than in some distant cemetry where within the next twenty years may again be a battlefield, as. has been the casq during the present war. As fo r the cost, that is inconsequental. Better have the taxpayer’s money spent that way than keeping a hord o f politicians on the payroll that are the New Deal slackers o f today. One can assume that i f a Roosevelt fam ily dog should die anywhere in Europe, it. would be embalmed and shipped to this country; The fam ily o f the service man should .have th e -r igh t to make a re quest fo r “ G I Jim” who should.at least be o n par with a Roose­ velt dog. - The veteran organizations are on the figh t track and wil have the support o f the public in exposing the present insur­ ance fraud.

( j » r i »<*-D iblinNacr^* The senate banking committee has one more N e ^ Deal measure to give the farmer worry--a ceiling price for all real estate sales, The legislation probably would take the form of an amendment to the pending OPA bill. The request for a ceiling price was made by Chester Bowles, head of the OPA who said: “ Absence of control over the price of real estate, urban and rural, is bringing about a boom in this field reminiscent of the flush twenties, a boom which can have a disasterous ef­ fect upon an important segment of our economy.” - The New Deal fears the price of real estate in rural communities is now near the danger point and unless checked will go higher. Iu some com- comunities there has been as little as 5 or 10 percent increase while in oth­ ers as (ugh as/ 75 and 100 percent.

Not so long ago-we attended a public sale and it was in­ teresting to see the crowd around an implement tliat had a ceiling fixed by the know-alls down in Washington, The auctioneers o f course do. not take chances and announce what the ceil­ ing is. Announcement is made that all who want to bid say on a tractor -will hand in their names on a slip of paper. In this case some 200 or more men put in names, no doubt half or more already had tractors but these names were . for a friend in many cases. A boy or girl, usually stand on a wagon or platform and draws a name from a hat. Tine auctioneer takes the slip and reads the name to the crowd and he is the lucky owner of the tractor. Up steps “ Jim Roose­ velt,” who has no tractor and needs one, not being the .lucky boy at the drawing. He offers the farmer who was lucky a $100 bill (such things do float around farm sales we find) and. the deal is made right there in the presence of the crowd. Jim Roosevelt drives the tractor away and the lucky farmer with his $100 bill in his vest pocket walks up to the clerk and pays the sale clerk the ceiling price of the ractor. The farmer, is satisfied with Yiis day's profit: The OPA has to be •satisfied and the farmer holding the sale and having his own property bartered to others lost $100. by being forced to sell at ceiling price, If the same transaction was in Cuba or any South American country where race horse pool is sold by children in the public streets we would not give the matter a second thought. No winder .ve have a demand on the part of .city congressman for a national lottery saw. And the New Deal may lead .the aation to that form of ’ legal :d gambling. vrs who winked at that form o f law breaking, another element arose to find out that new political standards were being tried out to see if they would pay political dividends at the polls two years hence. The Governor put the gambling situation in the lap of the mayors^-which probably did not ring the bell for popularity. The dope we get is that the Governor is running the government at Columbus and that even the Democratic city bosses arc having a hard time to get political plums for the faithful. Some outside organizations tiiat backed the Governor at the polls even have failed to pull any punches in return for the work of aiding in the Lausche elec­ tion last November. / ' Thirty or forty thousand strikers in the Detroit area out on strike dur­ ing the past week, all of them in fac­ tories making war supplies. Roose­ velt was too busy running world poli­ tics to know what was going on at home. Had the strike been at Mont­ gomery Wal’d, Chicago, immediate attention would be given. The labor leaders only have to complain and at once Roosevelt jumps through the hoop to meet their demands. There is one labor leader that is not so popular at the White House—John L. Lewis, head of the coal miners, He is now laying the ground, work for more money for his members—not in­ crease in wages, for that would be inflation. He wants more money to set up his own health insurance or­ ganization for health and unemploy­ ment. I He asks the coal operators to give 10c a ton, about $60 a car, in- addition to present wages, for the new social standard fund. This would be about 60 million dollars a year, just a nest egg in the days o f the Roosevelt- ian period of reconstruction of the world. - Lewis will follow the head of the Musicians Union, Petrillo, who had the backing of the New Deal and held up the broadcasting companies and record makers for a 10c fee on programs and new records for the music boxes, The little Italian is the fellow that withdrew his union musi­ cians from •any broadcasting, station that .permitted high school bands and orchestras, to broadcast, for practice- or for pay”. Mr. Lewis will make the I White .House like his new plan or face a strike, not on his orders, because the miners will walk out singly _and not return, thus escaping violation of j the Democratic Smith-Connelly anti strike law. The fight for the “ work or.-fight’ law is to have a club to hit- the miners over the head but the New Deal >vill discover that most of the miners of 0 a ift age aqe in service and the others are beyond draft age. - tax fo r hi* miner*. If that ia so the Plain Dealer will have to admit John L. was at one time a welcome member of the first governmental “ blackmail” outfit that ever operated with gov­ ernmental approval, the New Deal, The NRA was a blackmail outfit, the AAA has operated on the same lines; j the OPA faces such a charge from j none other than Democratic Con­ gressman Gardner, Hamilton, O. and the use o f “ blackmail” to force con­ gressmen to vote New Deal or have patronage taken away. Even “ black­ mail” methods were used to kill Hen­ ry' Wallace before the National Dem­ ocratic convention. Once accomplish­ ed he was polished o ff and “ to pay a political debt” was given an empty honor as Secretary of Commerce. So hungry had Henry become when o ff the payroll one month, he gladly ac­ cepted the meal ticket, unmindful of the bruises inflicted. Wo are in receipt of an article from i New Orleans, La., paper, the States, as follows: I ho political elements, now in control in this country, have the resources of the nation at their command and it is political suicide for a .senator, con­ gressman or j|udge, to oppose the powers that be. We have seen some nauseating il­ lustrations recently, of the abuse of politicarpower. The Montgomery Ward case, was a usurpation o f constitutional author­ ity, to 'gratify the demands made by the' CIO and PAC. The removal of Jesse Jones', was to punish him for the Texes delegation’s refusal to support Roosevelt for the nomination and to pay a political debt by putting into the hands of Henry Wallace the most important position in the government. The A -l priority for son Elliott’s dog on transport plane, in preference to our fighting men, also Elliott’s promotion to brigadier general, over more deserving fighting men, Son James, holding up a train for his personal convenience, Vice President Harry Truman's declaration o f friendship and devotion to his crooked political tutor and ben­ efactor, Tom Pendcrgast and flying to his funeral in a special govern­ ment transport, plane. These are some of the things that stem from White House power. HIow much more is there that we hear noth­ ing about? How long will the American people endure such abuses? In our opinion every vote ever cast for Franklin I), Roosevelt, contributed that much to the difficulties in solv­ ing our country’s problems, The more you think about it the darker it looks. ' HERALDWANTANDSALEADS PAY Gov. Frank Lausche has serit terror into the breasts of many a state em­ ploye when .he said: “ No more sal­ ary increases’. That sounds good to the outlying precincts but it will not bo popular with the “ rank and file” oh the payroll and the horde of Dem­ ocrats on the waiting lists.. The Gov­ ernor even put his foot down on pen­ sions for the judges, which is any- ' thing but good doctrine if the New Deal is to have a following in Ohio, ' So fat' the Governor and the New Denl'do not seems to bo in harmony. ; The Now Deal has new worries— and what do you suppose’it is. With the war taking thousands of our. men of. youthful age we must have some method of rcpc-pulating the earth.' It .lias been assumed by King Franklin that Ft was the duty of some one to get a “ heavenly sent message to do this trick. This ia no time for birth control—for instance 780 for Febru­ ary at the hospitals’ in Dayton alone, to say nothing- of -1 the blessed event in hundreds of homes. The New Deal has just hud published and given to the public on a subject seldom discus­ sed outside, of" the medical profession. The American Medical profession be­ ing in disrepute with the New Deal, could not be trusted, so the New Deal dreamers issued a book entitled '“ The Fertility of Women.’’ The hook was issued by the government and paid by Uncle Sam, saving neither paper or the income taxpayers money. The book must be a sensation for Con­ gress has discussed the^book. We do not know the writer or the contents but we could name one family that should be an authority on that sub­ ject. They seem to know the fertile and the unfertile specimens. You can i leave it to the inbred, the crossbred, ' the outbred as authorities on such a subject outside of the medical circle. The author of this book might delve j into another feminine subject and thru J research learn where Kipling was and - under what circumstance did he write : that uncomplimentary reference-as to i the makeup of woman It would be i interesting to know where she lived, i The Cleveland Plain Dealer thinks { John L, Lewis has resorted to “ black- , mail” in his proposed 10-cent-a-ton i / ,T”1' ^ HtYHRMP* Excellent quality Genuine Pfister Hybrid Seed Corn still available, It is drougth resistant and high yield­ ing.

CIVE tom + CIVE amt Million Farm Boys in Service About one million farm workers have been inducted into the armed forces since 1940 when the selective service law became effective, ac­ cording to War Food administration figures. During the past year ap­ proximately 250,000 were inducted from agriculture. In addition to the loss of these men, many others have left farms for various reasons and several million have withdrawn from agriculture without changing their residence. Synthetic Quinine After 88 Years After more than 88 years of search by leading chemists of the world, including Pasteur, a process for syn­ thesizing quinine totally has been perfected by two 27-year-old Ameri­ can chemists. Robert B. Woodward dnd William E. Doering, after only 14 months of concerted effort, have announced the new method, which is being made available to the pub­ lic. i Of particular importance at the present time is the possibility that the new process will be able to re­ place the vast store of qu in ine- lost when the Japanese took the Netherlands East Indies. Not only did Woodward and Doer­ ing duplicate quinine but in addition , created an entirely new substance, the optical isomer o f quinine. If the new product is found to have the therapeutic properties of the natural or synthetic quinine, the combined anti-malarial substances would be much easier to produce because it would not be necessary to separate the synthetic quinine froq) P 10 TECT Poultry HssIHi from Day-O ld On J n t Add to Drinking Water 9 N eo -S ol T ok I c aad leteraal AstUcptle Give* them bright red comb* and wattle*.
