F R ID A Y MARCH 3 0 , 1 9 4 5 , SLAUGHTER OF THE 18-YEAR OLDS Congress has a t times discussed the death of eighteen-year -old boys thrown into the front ranks without the necessary military training. After a lot*of talk, nothing of course has been done for the Democratic-New Dealers in Congress must take orders from the “blood and guts” head quarters. One cannot imagine what the horror of war might be at best, only those who engage in it, probably not by choice at that. But when inexperienced 18-year-old boys are thrown in to the front ranks as so much gun-fodder, not even knowing how to defend ‘themselves, it must be terrifying, especially when officers, hardened to seeing their elders shot down in cold blood, must turn their faces at the sight of the innocen; dying like rats at a slaughter. Imagine if you can the sight o: 19 boys of the 18-age group, none that had ever had the legal right to vote; most of whom never experienced even a shave; some that had never slept away from home until the first n igh ; . in a camp many that, had no idea of what terror of war was at night, let alone dytime, thrown into the maelstrom of hell-fire and with in the first five minutes, eleven of ‘the 19 were dead and five more lying on the battlefield in terrible agony from gunfire injury. W e unfold this story as we approach the Easter dawn when heads are bowed in reverence of rebirth of the Master, the first and only apostle of peace. There should be a moment of silent prayer on the lips of every man and woman this GOOD FRIDAY for the safety and security of- these boys and girls that they may be returned safely to their homes after vic­ tory and not be compelled to become night watchmen in some distant land. , , * Thank God, the. broken promise that these youngsters would have a year’s training before being sent abroad, falls not on the Republican minority of Congress, hut the Democratic New Dealers that are only the ‘.‘Charley McCarty’s” for the “blood and guts” division directing the war. WHEN THE GUILD REACHES IN THE PURSE Not so long ago we were in a group of newspapermen that discussed the position of newspapers and the CIO Newspaper Guild. Not all city newspapers have to contend with the or­ ganization but many do. It is a problem each newspaper has to solve and the political complexion of the paper makes no dif­ ference to the Guild. It is the proprietor’s purse strings the organization would, loosen. There are daily newspapers tha t have no right to contest any claim the Guild forces on the editorial or the business de partments of the paper. Most of such papers have sat. idly by watching some fellow publisher defend himself the way he can in such a contest, particularly now when the Guild has the gov eminent backing it on ninety-nine out of any 100 points th a ; can be raised. , Againfi there are daily papers that have, editorial depart ments that dictate the policy of the paper, whether it suits the publisher, or owner, or not. We have in mind one Democratic paper that is owned by a prominent Democrat that has nothing hut curses for much of the present New Deal. Only ears of his close business associates hear the rancor. Yet, the editoria page is written by one of Communist leanings and always backs the Nfew Deal in everything, and the publisher has to like it and be satisfied. This same paper, like many others in the nation, must face new Guild contracts, which means less working hours and more money, just like John L. Lewis stands for hig coal miners. With this newspaper we have in mind we hear the Guild is ask­ ing for increases in salaries that will even exceed some that head departments, and such cannot be members of the union These heads must hold down on the cost of operating their de partments or they will loose their jobs. ( Newspapers that have editorial pages that would do credit to Joseph Staling official paper, the Pravda,, has no right to complain or object to any demand made by the Guild. It has had no sympathy for the industrial concern in the same posi tion. The Guild has a right to demand that the paper practice what it preaches. There,is a lesson to the farmer in this situation and it must be said he has sat back uninterested in seeing the nation’s busi­ ness turned over, body and soul, to be operated by those'who do not have a dollar invested in it. You, whether you know it or not, are only a stone’s throw from the seat now occupied by the above mentioned newspaper. You will .face the same issue in a very few months after the close of the war—if the Roose­ velt New Dealers continue to hold the throne in Washington. Judging from press reports Sen. Harold H. Burton, Cleveland, is out to create dissention in Republican ranks in this state, regardless of the fact that, he must come for re-elec­ tion next year, if he desires another term. The Senator thinks .that Chair­ man Ed Schorr might be responsible for defeat of some places on the state ticket, at least that is the infer­ ence in his press statement, if cor­ rectly quoted. We have a suspicion the Senator has somthing else up his sleeve rath­ er than Mr. Schorr. Mr. Schorr is the chairman of the Republican State Executive committee, chosen by mem­ bers of the state central committee who are chosen by election by Repub­ lican electors from the different con. gressional districts. We hold no brief for Mr. Schorr as chairman, nor do we have cause to fuss with him or over him. We do pot know that he has ever tried to dictate a single ap­ pointment in this county nor has he been against ,the county at election time. We do know that he coopera ted with the county-committee in the last election when the county give all Republican candidates, in the face of the strongest opposition, made possi­ ble by New Deal spending and hoard ing'of imported voters from other states that had no legal right to vote while holding a temporary residence in the county.

We expect- the “fly in the ointment” with the Senator is the current -re port that thousands of Republicans in the state would much prefer to vote for John-W. Bricker as the next Re publican nominee for senator that for the Senator- himself. We have no quarrell with the Senator from-a par­ ty standpoint, while we do and -have had divergent views on many national issues that have .been espoused by the Senator. That is .our right and he has the same right for his views. We have no means of knowing the wishes of ‘Gov.” Bricker. He has. made no open statement on political •lines that we know of. We know that there has been during all the three terms Brick- ;»r was governor, co-operation from Mr. Schorr, yet Who is there than can openly state that Mr. Schorr “bossed” the former Governor? We expect they have disagreed a t times just as Mr. Burton has disagreed with Mr, Schorr. Here is how w# disagree with Sen­ ator Burton’ when he points out the election results in the state. As for the National ticket’ there was far to much “a-men” stuff to the New Deal by even Gov. Dewey as the'Republi­ can nominee. Then the Senator and his associate Sen. Joe Ball ,and others who followed a theory that did not appeal to the public and landed at the “dead-end” of the campaign alley, To make matters worse Sen. Ball, who was supposedly elected as a Republi­ can from his state turned a political traitor and joined with the Roosevelt communists, Hillman; Williams, and the CIO Russianists. At no time have we ever heard that Senator Burton, has yet publically disowned his traitor associate for .the Republican cause. This one incident alone may prove to be embarrasing to the Senator when he seeks another term. Again'as We canvass the Senator’s home county returns, Cuyahoga, We are inclined to believe the Republicans in great num- did not consider his party loyalty strong enough to give the ticket dven one office in the county and so fa r as we know but one candidate on the state or national ticket a majority and that was Congressman-at-Large Geo. Bender, who also drew support from the counties that have not swallowed the New Deal- doctrine. At a recent meeting of the Repub­ lican State committee, a committee was named to make a study and a canvass of the state vote. It is inter­ esting to review following the Burton outburst over the “near defeat” of the state ticket last November, We And the Republicans captured 755 state, district and county offices, almost twice the number elected by the Dem- oerts, which had 380 offices. The Re­ publicans won a U. S. Senator, Con­ gressman -at-large; 16 District Con­ gressmen; Secretary of State, Treas­ urer of State; Attorney General; 20 State Senators against 13 for the Democrats, and a large part of these came .from Cuyhoga and nearby sena­ torial districts under CIO influence. As for-. State Representatives the Re­ publicans elected 90 against 39 for the Democrats, Other county and district offices went Republican more than two to one in all cases. So wc fail to see just how much* of a “load” Mr. Schorr was to the party a t the last election. The electors were not so much interested in who was , state chairman of either political party last November. Wc suppose there are Democrats that do and more than are ready to cast stones at Al Hortsman, Dayton, chairman of the Democratic party. Judging from the sideline re­ ports the Dayton Democrats nre now throwing stones towards the Gover­ nor’s office because he is not opening the patronage doors to all who would seek admittance, From this distance it appears that Senator Burton had better devote a bit more time towards strengthening his party in his own county before he widens his scope of activity to include the state, He can also spend much of hiB' time in Washington trying to do h is'pa rt in keeping the nation the kind of a republic that existed at the time the millions of boys and girls of the nation entered the war. , We are nearer Communism today, forced on the people under the guise of a war-time necessity. With little or no pork on sale in the Dayton and Springfield markets on Saturday, and poultry at a prem­ ium and none on sale in Columbus, it is surprising how New Deal fam­ ilies relish the dish they set before themselves last November. Of course New Dealer has no right to complain even if he cannot get either beef or pork. He can eat his red points and listen to tho radio speeches how the imaginary black-market is withhold­ ing meat from the market places.

It is pro­ posed to limit the slaughter of meat in the rural slaughter houses and to control the sale of livestock by ship­ ments to sections of the country as the New Deal directs There will be no meat on the city markets unless OPA ceiling prices are changed so packers can -make a reasonable profit. If the public pur­ chases as much meat at the black- market as the OPA claims, and also pay far above ceiling prices, then the best way to kill the illegal market is to boost the price of livestock, pro­ cessed meat. The consumer is not kicking. about the price of meat but he does kick about the shortage of meat. The city worker wants meat and is willing to pay for it. If he is so foolish as. to continue to follow the CIO Hillman-Roosevclt' food plan, let one and all do without meat .but do not continue to complain. They are getting just what they voted for— free lend-lease meat to England. Over in Canada that nation gets paid for all the meat sent to England .Canada does not rationmeat to- its citizens and yet has plenty for its military forces. As attorney in Madison county in­ forms the- writer that he appeared a few weeks ago before the draft board in that county to seek deferment for two or three boys needed on farms where the father was dead or there was no one to drive tractors. - After presenting the case a Democratic member of the draft board made it plain the nation needed more men in uniform and that the nation.had a full two year’s supply ’ of food both for civilians and the military and forthat reason Washington wanted even farm boys for the army and must have them. -That same draft board mem­ ber sings a different tune today. He has discovered you ‘ cannot even be­ lieve even what the New Dealers have .to say in Washington. ■ ■ > Last fail thousands of brood sows were sent to market from all parts of the country. It was pointed but then there would be a big scarcity of pork this spring and summer. The New Deal was still feeding the public the chaff about so many more millions of hogs in the nation than at anytime in the history of the coutry. A Madison county farm woman who has just completed a census of farm stock in her township. She reports there are 500 less brood sows in her township this spring than a year ago. The same can be said for each township in Greene county. In discussing the sit­ uation with a Clinton county land owner he says hifc county has the low­ est number of brood sows today in Aen years. * Two of the largest hog breeders and feeders in eastern Green county have reduced their herds, one dropping from 350 brood sows to a- bout 20 this spring, When the New Deal broke its pledge to the farmers by changing the floor price and then put a limit on poundage, the hog feeder to protect himself had to re­ duce his brood sow list. City folks can get pork when they are willing to facts, not idle dreams out of Wash­ ington, by chronic liars. BUY AND HOLD “E” BONDS RHEUMATISM? 77 Come to Browns’ Drugs Cedarviile, O.

Instead of the idea being a contest it has proven to be more satisfactory to call the en­ tries “Auditions”, thereby eliminating the usual hard feelings among th e ! different schools.

Through executives of State Salvage organizations. Ohio has. issued n challenge to every other state in the ’ nation to a waste •pnner salvage contest, in an all-out- effort to solve the waste paper orohlem. The challenge is signed hv Ralph R. Stone. Director of the Ohio , State Council of Defense:. .Tames G. Lewis. WPB Executive Recretarv of Ohio General Selvage Branch: Harold W. Nichols. C lia’r. man, Ohio State Salvage Commit­ tee; Ethel G.

So drastically urgent is 'h" .sit­ uation that the Ohio Rtpto rniin—1 of Defense, through its Statp Sal­ vage Committee, has nut into mo­ tion every means at its disposal to increase at. once the present ever, ftge monthly collections of KOO.eOO to a minimum of 667,000 tons a month. , . "Everv man. woman ano^ emm in America must ioin in this im­ portant campaien.” says Stone, giv­ ing these reasons: •Millions of paperboard .contain­ ers are being sent overseas to our fighting, forces each week. A’•my quartermasters need a million paper containers a day to kec" the Army, supplied with milk. To pack canned tomatoes for tho Armv another thousand. tons are needed. AH this requires 5000 tons of waste naner. The ever-in­ creasing conversion of waste paner into actu&l weapons of war has become a terrific drain on the paper mills. / Stone points out that such items as bomb bands, "airplane wing tins shell'casing protectors, signal rock­ ets, parachute flares, shell con­ tainers, practice bombs, paper hel- -«ets and camouflage paper are us­ ing tons and tons of paper. “The situation is truly critiea’ —every American must help now.' says Stone.
